NICE TO NOT MEET YOU

EPISODE 1

IMPERIAL PRINT

Last one to leave today too?

I just need to finish up two orders!

Did you take care of that reprint order?

- Yeah, they switched to rough-gloss paper.
- Good job!

- You're here!
- Hey there!

- Come on in!
- Come on, let's eat.

- You're back!
- Come and eat.

- Fried chicken!
- Hey, come over here!

-I gave you my heart, my love, my all
-My love, my all

-But now you're leaving, like a stranger
-But now you're leaving, like a stranger

-Take the pain of goodbye with you
-Take the pain of goodbye with you

-You heartless one
-You heartless one

- Yes, fried chicken!
- Listen.

What do you call a chicken
that's proud of itself?

Come on, guess.

It's pride chicken!

Right. Let's dig in.

- Thanks for the food.
- Very funny.

- Come on, pride chicken!
- Yeah, I heard you.

Man, I thought it was hilarious.

- Let's eat.
- Jeez.

Hey, hold on.

This looks delicious.

Damn, it's gone cold.

When did you take that?

Let me explain, bro…

IMPERIAL PRINT

I got so much done today. Time to wrap up.

This right here.

Could you deliver this yourself?

You don't want to go, do you?

Would you want to go if you were me?

Well, it's Chae-bin's birthday today, so…

Never mind, bro.
It's close, so I'll stop by on the way.

It's Chae-bin's birthday?

- Forget it. Just go home.
- No, it's okay.

It'd be awkward if you ran into Se-na.

Look.

If I went like this,

maybe she wouldn't recognize me.

Do you really think
she wouldn't notice her ex in that?

I wonder if she knows you live like this.

Will you really go yourself?

Hurry up and leave
before I change my mind.

Thanks, bro. See you!

Hey!

THE QUEEN OF MELODRAMA

15 YEARS AGO

Please leave now.

I'd like to get off work.

Mr. Hong.

This is all a misunderstanding.

It's true we saw each other
while filming Sad Waltz,

but we broke up a long time ago!

If word gets out about this,
I'll have to step down

from all my commercials,
melodramas, and mini-series!

And I'd have to pay contract penalties!

- Please…
- Listen.

That's your problem, isn't it?

And there's plenty of evidence
in front of you.

Don't be ridiculous.

But this…

Hyeon-jun was still hung up on me
and begged to see me one last time.

He said if I refused,
he'd come looking for me on set.

I had no choice but to see him.

That's what happened, right?

Say something. Please?

Please.

Don't do that.
You're making me uncomfortable.

Please get up.

Everything she said is true.

I…

I forced her into seeing me.

Mr. Hong.

Please don't publish that article.

See?

I told you there's nothing between us.

It's not fair for me.

Please, Mr. Hong.

Why would hotshots like them
meet in a place like this?

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Oh.

You're here, Ms. Wi.

Why are you alone, sir?

Where's the assemblyman?

You're not on the level
to have a private meeting with him.

Take a seat.

I'll be in the US for eight months
filming the second season of Save Zone,

so I'm not sure
if the timing will work out.

Eight months will fly by
while we get ready for filming.

If you agree to this role, Ms. Gwon,

I'd be willing to wait eight years,
let alone eight months.

Yes?

I'm here to drop off the script.

Oh, that was quick, Mr. Lim.

Why is this so wet?

It's raining, so…

All right.

What's this?

It's the script we had custom-printed.

I'll get going, then.

Wait.

Thank you.

I like it.

You do?

It's a custom-printed special edition!

Sir!

Did Assemblyman Ha Gee-wan

hire an aide
just to take the fall for him?

Does Assemblyman Ha
really have nothing to do

with the redevelopment in Cheongwon City?

Are you saying his aide
took all that money for himself?

I know, right? The nerve of that guy.

Mr. Woo Young-suk

was supposed to meet me tomorrow.

How could someone like that just die?

We have breaking news.

This morning,
at a private parking lot in Seoul,

Mr. Woo, an aide
to Assemblyman Ha Gee-wan,

who was involved
in the redevelopment of Cheongwon City,

was found dead.

Charcoal briquettes and a note,
believed to be a suicide letter,

were discovered at the scene.

Ms. Wi, it seems you're upset

because you missed out on an exclusive.

But these are the facts, all right?

I'm upset
because I missed out on an exclusive?

Mr. Woo's family
wants to avoid escalating the issue.

So if you keep poking around,

a lot of people will get hurt, understand?

Open it.

A reporter needs to move fast.

That should be enough to get a decent SUV.

Take it.

What are you doing?

I learned a good lesson, thanks to you.

Think of the money as my lesson fee.

Am I really this pathetic?

What was so embarrassing
that I even put on a cap?

I thought it might be you,
and I was right.

It's been a while.

You haven't changed as much as I expected.

You haven't changed either.

Why did you come here?

You knew I'd be here,

so you shouldn't have come.

Did you show up looking like that,
hoping I'd feel guilty or something?

- What?
- Or has life

actually gotten that hard for you?

I'll pretend I didn't hear any of that.

Take care.

You knew I'd be here,

so you shouldn't have come.

15 YEARS AGO

Cut!

Give it to me.

I'll do it.

Who are you?

What the hell?

- What's going on?
- You scared me.

- Who are you?
- Who are you?

Man, you scared me.
How did you even get in?

- My head is killing me.
- Goodness.

- I think I'm being kidnapped.
- Kidnapped?

- My location is…
- I'm not kidnapping you!

- Don't open the door!
- I think we're crossing a bridge.

What bridge are we on right now?

It's the Yeongdong Bridge!

I'm on the Yeongdong Bridge!

- Please come to the Yeongdong Bridge!
- Is she insane?

Where are you taking me in this junky car?

A RELIABLE POLICE FORCE, A SAFE NATION

Since there's been
a misunderstanding between you two,

and you came in voluntarily,

we'll review the dashcam footage
to confirm what happened.

Please take a look.

Unbelievable.

That's the footage from the front.

Here's the next one.

Come on, seriously?

See? Look at that.

We saw that she got in my car by herself,
so I'm innocent.

Let's keep watching.

Maybe he pretended not to notice
there was someone in the back.

Wow, are you serious?

Go ahead and play it.

All right.

That bitch.

"You shouldn't have come"?

- Hold on, I wasn't calling you a bitch.
- Seriously, who does she think she is?

- Look.
- I can't believe she said that.

As if she hasn't changed one bit.

Her face is all sagging now,
with wrinkles around her eyes.

And how is her acting
still as bad as before?

She hasn't improved one bit.

No progress at all.

It's always the same long straight hair
and the same lousy acting.

Man, I'm sick of it!

I'm so sick of it!

Who are you?

- The thing is…
- It seems

you were very angry at the time.

Well, that settles things
between you two, right?

I…

I'm really sorry.

Fine, then.

Accusing an innocent person of kidnapping…

Unbelievable.

I know, right?

I got an innocent man killed

and turned another into a kidnapper.

What's the matter with me?

Well…

I'm such an idiot!

Officer, please just arrest me.
I deserve to get arrested.

Who knows what other stupid mess
I'll get myself into?

Just arrest me instead.

Please throw me in jail!

I'm begging you to throw me in jail.

She sure is a mess when she's drunk.

- I'm free to go now, right?
- Yes.

- Take care, Officer.
- Goodbye.

Just hurry up and put me in jail already.

Drink that and sober up before you go.

And don't hop into
someone else's car again.

It's a scary world out there, you know.

You're lucky you got in my car.

Thank you.

You're obviously an average office worker.

I don't know what made you drink so much,

but it's oftentimes not your fault
when something bad happens.

So stop blaming yourself

and keep moving on.

You need to be successful…

Has life actually gotten
that hard for you?

Or else, people will look down on you.

Hold on a minute.

THANK YOU
EUNSEONGILBO

If you ever need my help,

will you give me a call?

Fine, then.

Don't look at me like that.

You're making me feel uncomfortable.

I'll be off, then.

Mr. Woo Young-suk was
supposed to meet me tomorrow.

How could someone like that just die?

GWON SE-NA NAMED MUSE FOR LUXURY BRAND

GWON SE-NA'S SAVE ZONE IS A GLOBAL HIT

Hello.

Yes?

I had a script printed here a while ago,

and there's a bit of an issue.

An issue?

GOOD DETECTIVE KANG PIL-GU

Oh, this one.

I believe Mr. Hwang took care of this.

He said it was an independent film
for a graduation project

and did it at cost price
without leaving any profit.

Yes, he was very considerate
and offered me a discount on the printing

and got it done
despite the tight deadline.

He also accommodated

over ten revision requests
for the cover design.

I'm very grateful.

Right.

Mr. Hwang really went
out of his way to help you.

He really did.

But gratitude is one thing,
and this is business.

I can't overlook mistakes
just because I appreciate his help.

I'm sure you can overlook them
if you're truly grateful.

But this is my first feature film,

so I'm afraid I can't just let this slide.

Go ahead and show me
where the mistakes are.

The best boy electric's name
is Na Yun-seon,

but it was printed as "Na Un-seon."

And the cover has a strong reddish hue,

but I was hoping for a softer vibe.

Overall, it lacks symmetry.

There's a 2 mm difference
between the left and right margins.

And I asked Hamchorong Batang
Extended Bold for the font,

but he just went with
Hamchorong Batang Extended.

Could you change it to
Hamchorong Batang Extended Bold instead?

- Is that all?
- Yes.

Didn't you say you're on a tight deadline?

Yes, so I need to ask you
to get this done by tomorrow.

That place over there is amazing.

No, him.

It wasn't me.

He needed it in
Hamchorong Batang Extended Bold.

Bold.

Go on.

He's worse than those TV station guys.

I thought you were
going to punch him, bro.

That's why I sent him away quickly.

It was a close call.

Good call.

If you punch guys like him,
all you get is a sore fist.

Oh, damn.

Why is that Hamchorong guy still here?

- Something's off about him.
- Why is he doing this to us?

Should I ward him off?

- He's so weird.
- Seriously.

I know I've seen him before.

"Good Detective Kang Pil-gu"?

What kind of title is that?
His name’s just as weird.

Wow, this punk…

He's a genius.

Damn it! What the hell?

Could you change it to
Hamchorong Batang Extended Bold instead?

Hamchorong?
Have you lost your mind, you punk?

You nearly gave me a heart attack!

I remember now.

What do you mean?

I knew I'd seen you before.

But I couldn't remember
even when I got home,

or even after I walked my dog
and took out the recyclables.

I was about to lose my damn mind.

But as soon as I lay down to sleep,

I remembered.

That movie, Sad Waltz.

You're an actor!

You came all the way back here
just to confirm that?

No.

I'm here to cast you.

Jeez.

I want you to be in my movie,
Good Detective Kang Pil-gu,

as the main character,
Detective Kang Pil-gu.

Let's go.

Damn!

GOOD DETECTIVE KANG PIL-GU

Hurry, let's go.

Hey, move! We're busy.

Come on.

Move it! We're busy!

You're saying the color bled?

And I told him…

Hello there!

We'll get it reprinted for you.

Yes, of course.

What the hell, man?

Mr. Leading Man,
are you just getting off work?

Come on, seriously?

What are you doing here?

- Go home already!
- I'll go after you take this.

Why are you here? Go away!

Mr. Leading Man,
would you please just consider…

I told you no already. Go away!

You didn't have to lock the door.

- There's no point in staying here. Go!
- Just help me out this once.

Mr. Leading Man.

Seriously?

- I'm about to lose it.
- Mr. Leading Man?

No, stop calling me that!

Don't call me that, all right?

Mr. Lim, I really want you in my movie.

You go to a great school.

There must be a truckload of good actors
to choose from.

What makes you think
you can trust me with that role?

I get that it's just a graduation project,
but you can't afford to fail.

I'm doing this
to make sure it's a success.

Fine.

Let me ask you then.

Why do you want me
to play that aggressive detective?

Because you'll do a great job!

I'm not good at explaining things,
but that's why.

I can make it happen.

I'm confident that I can,
if you'll just let me.

I saw that there's
a ton of chase and fight scenes.

I can't even fight!

Pacifism runs in my DNA,
right down to the bone.

I'm busy, so go away.

Go away now!

Wait, you can't just throw that around!

Please handle it with care.

Goodness, Mr. Hwang. Don't drink too much.

Yes, thank you.

Come on, just do it.

Why are you being so difficult?

How many people would actually watch
an indie film made by a college student?

- For goodness' sake.
- Well,

what if someone watches it
and I end up being humiliated?

And why bother
if nobody's going to watch it anyway?

You know, I read the script too.

A story like that is rare to come by.

Look, forget the fact
that the director is inexperienced.

It's the kind of story that makes you
want to get right onto the set.

Tell me, is it not?

- It is.
- See?

Hey, remember when I was doing stage plays
and got recruited by the agency?

You were my first manager.

Right.

How was I back then?

You, bro?

You were…

different.

You had the potential to be a top star.

Yeah, right.

If only you hadn't dated Gwon Se-na,

you wouldn't have ended up like this.

That ungrateful little wench.

You broke up with her for her sake,
and she should be thankful for that.

Instead, she lied just to save face.

What's with that look?

Don't tell me you think
this indie film could suddenly turn you

into a world-famous movie star
or something.

I never said I was thinking that!

- Jeez, whatever.
- Why would you say that?

No need to get so angry.

Hey.

We started this print shop
with our bare hands

and made a name for ourselves.

Things are pretty good now, no?

Some people don't make
half as much as you do,

but they still buy cars,
play golf, and live it up.

But what do you do for yourself?

Just think of it as a hobby.

You deserve to do what you want
every now and then.

Don't worry
about the print shop, all right?

Leave it to me.

Imperial Print!

MR. LEADING MAN,
I'LL ASK YOU ONE LAST TIME.

PLEASE BE IN MY MOVIE.
IF YOU TURN ME DOWN AGAIN, I'LL STOP.

BUT I URGE THAT YOU CONSIDER IT
WITH A POSITIVE MINDSET.

Will I get paid?

"He spins the handcuffs
and swiftly fastens them onto X's wrists."

"They say you can't fix people."

"But…

I do."

"Then he collapses, sprawling next to X."

All right,
we'll wrap up our table read here.

Good job.

Good work, everyone.

Can I have a word with you?

Sure.

I overdid it earlier, didn't I?

- Mr. Lim.
- Yes?

Let me start by saying
that what I'm about to tell you

is meant for the sake of the movie,
and not to teach or lecture you.

Of course. Feel free to say whatever.

Don't be shy. Just tell me.

Before I do that,

I think we should decide on
how to address each other

as a sign of respect
for our respective roles.

Right. I see.

Okay.

You're right. Sounds good.

Sounds good, Director.

Mr. Lim.

How did you analyze the character?

Well…

He thinks violence
is the only way to deal with criminals.

And I think he has a troublemaker streak.

Sir.

How do you feel about him
fighting violence with violence?

Wouldn't it depend
on the level of violence?

On a case-by-case basis, no?

So his approach depends on the situation?

You're right. It shows in your acting.

It screams,
"I don't know if I'm doing this right,

but I'm trying to make the punching
and beating as natural as possible."

This character values his fists
over the law. Why?

Because his beliefs were
shaped by childhood experiences.

That's why this character feels no guilt
beating up bad guys.

To make this character authentic,

you have to fully trust
that your beliefs are right.

You have to become one with the character.

Yes, sir.

GOOD DETECTIVE KANG PIL-GU

Bro, what are you doing?

We're swamped right now.

- Hurry up and drop off the orders.
- Okay.

They say you can't fix people.

But I do.

But I do.

But I do!

But I do!

Stop right there!

But I do.

Stop right there!

Stop.

Stop!

Stop right there!

Cut!

Has he lost his damn mind?

Who shoots a chase scene for three days?

Two and a half days, actually.

The only expression captured on camera
is total exhaustion.

Maybe it's because Kang Pil-gu
is damn exhausted.

Right, sir?

Wrong. Sure, it's hard.

But he has to show he's determined
to catch the bastard

and beat the hell out of him.

Let's go again.

Ready. Action!

Cut!

Action!

Cut!

Action!

You okay?

Don't stop.

Keep acting until I say cut.

All right, let's go again.

Ready!

Action!

Cut.

Mr. Lim, let's go again.

That bastard.

Ready. Action!

- What?
- Cut.

Damn it.

- You did great.
- Thank you.

Let's call it a day for the shoot.

But we're not done yet.

It seems you didn't fully prepare
for the character,

so we'll stop filming today
and reshoot this later.

- Clear the set, please.
- But…

Hey, hold on a second!

Are you out of your mind, Director?

This isn't some multi-billion-won
budget movie!

It's an indie film, so shoot it like one!

Why can't you be reasonable about this?

Why can't you read the room
or know your limits?

Are you taking this
to the Cannes Film Festival?

Not even Bong Joon-ho
or Park Chan-wook would go this far!

How would you know that?

It's not like you've worked with
those directors either, Mr. Lim.

What did you just say?

Get over here!

Why you little…

I've been speaking to you respectfully
and showing you respect as the director!

You were practically begging me
to be in your movie,

so I agreed
to be in your movie without pay!

So how dare you say that to me?

Had I known you were so bad at acting,

I wouldn't have persuaded you.

Is that so?

So you have a death wish, is that it?

Let's see how well you do on your own.

I'm out!

Cut. Again.

- What?
- Cut. Again.

Moving on to the next shot. Ready!

Action!

- What?
- Cut!

All right. Ready.

Action!

What?

It's all your fault, Detective Kang!

Let's go again!

Damn it, not again!

You punk!

They say you can't fix people.

But…

I do.

Cut! Okay!

- We're done!
- Yes!

And that's a wrap
for Good Detective Kang Pil-gu!

Good work, everyone!

Everyone, please fill your glass.

Thank you for all your hard work
while filming Good Detective Kang Pil-gu.

Make sure to fill your bellies today!

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

- Cheers.
- Drink up!

Drink…

It's finally over.

Mr. Lim.

I know that I gave you
a really hard time while filming.

It's all my fault.

I know you're probably upset with me,

but I hope you'll accept this drink
and forget about it.

Hey.

Drink up.

Big applause for our leading man!

- Lim Hyeon-jun!
- Lim Hyeon-jun!

- Lim Hyeon-jun!
- Lim Hyeon-jun!

- Lim Hyeon-jun!
- Lim Hyeon-jun!

- Lim Hyeon-jun!
- Lim Hyeon-jun!

I'll have a drink.

I hope…

we never see each other again,
you little shit!

And the Best Actor award
goes to Lim Hyeon-jun

from Good Detective Kang Pil-gu.

We'll now hear
Mr. Lim Hyeon-jun's acceptance speech.

By some miracle,
I've been given a second chance…

and I won't let it slip away.

From now on,

I hope to act for a long time
alongside all of you…

in a way that will be remembered.

Thank you!

My life took a dramatic turn.

Thank you!

I'll do my very best.

Thank you!

Thank you.

My black-and-white, documentary-like life

turned into a romantic comedy
bursting with color.

What the hell?

Are you taking this out?

I just started it up
to keep the battery from dying out.

I mean,

I paid for this car myself,
so why can't I use it whenever I want?

Come on, everyone's watching you.

Take the company car
if you have a work appointment.

I need to play roles like a wealthy heir,
a successful lawyer, or a doctor.

That way, I won't look so out of place
driving a fancy car like that.

I'm always playing broke detectives.

No wonder people are shocked
when they see me in a car like that!

People don't see the real me anymore.

All they see is Detective Kang Pil-gu.

These days, I even mistake my own name
for Kang Pil-gu

instead of Lim Hyeon-jun.

All right, I get it.

Let's make sure your next project
reshapes your public image, bro.

Let's please make that happen, Mr. Hwang.

And don't call me "bro" in public.

But why? You are my big bro.

If you call me bro, it makes me look old.

Shouldn't a CEO like you
manage his actor's public image?

Seriously?

What about my public image, then?

Damn.

You have a great body.

Come to my room. I'll tip you really well.

You pretty little thing.

- Hands off.
- What?

Get lost.

Man, what's the matter with her?

Her name is Wi Jeong-sin,
and she's 36 years old.

She's been with Eunseongilbo for 12 years.

She's currently
the political desk's ace reporter.

She entered and graduated top of her class
in Media and Communication.

She speaks English, Chinese, and Arabic

and is fluent in all four languages.

Known for her incredible mental toughness,

she discovered crucial evidence
before the police

at a murder scene
involving a dismembered body

that made even a 20-year veteran detective
vomit and pass out.

She also climbed a 100-meter tower crane
to interview protestors

and played a key role in getting

all unfairly dismissed
construction workers reinstated.

As a war correspondent,

she was the first in the world to report
the horrors of the Serian Civil War.

After being caught in a bomb blast

that nearly led
to the amputation of her leg,

she had major surgery and barely survived.

And she became the youngest recipient of
the Korean Journalist of the Year award.

The Korean Journalist of the Year award
goes to Ms. Wi Jeong-sin.

KOREAN JOURNALIST OF THE YEAR
AWARD CEREMONY

ONNURI JOURNALISTS ASSOCIATION

KOREAN JOURNALIST OF THE YEAR AWARD
WI JEONG-SIN

DESK CHIEF
YUN HWA-YEONG

- Did you write up this report?
- Yes.

It's like a martial arts novel.
How is this real?

I don't believe it all, either.

But why come to the entertainment desk
at a sister paper

instead of the culture desk
at the main paper?

Isn't it obvious?

They wanted her gone.

Let's have a meeting.

- Now?
- Pardon?

See you later.

Your new hair color looks amazing.

Where did you get it done?

A hair salon at Cheongdam Intersection.

Are you new here?

No.

- Are you Bahn Soo-jung?
- Yes.

- How do you know me?
- You have a video, right?

On Friday, February 20th,
you went to entertain some VIPs

and took a video on your phone,
hoping it might pay off.

- Who are you?
- Me?

I'm a reporter.

Hey, Chief.

I got a scoop.

We hit 28%!

Our ratings were close to 30%
over the course

of four whole seasons!

I said 30%!

Thanks to Good Detective Kang Pil-gu,
my production company bought a building!

The TV stations said
making dramas wasn't profitable,

so they almost shut down
that entire business.

You can say that Kang Pil-gu
brought us back from the brink.

This might sound funny coming from me,

but Kang Pil-gu saved a lot of lives.

Exactly!

That's why we need
dramas like this to continue.

Remember that old drama, Country Diaries?

This drama needs to go on
for 10 to 20 years as well!

Look at American dramas,
like CSI and NCSI.

They have spin-offs based in Las Vegas,
Miami, and New York!

Add them all up, and you can't even count
how many seasons there are!

What's to stop Kang Pil-gu from running
for 10 or even 20 seasons?

You're absolutely right.

But all of that depends on
what our leading man decides to do.

Are you saying
I have to play a detective until I die?

Even Gil Grissom
from CSI: Vegas left the series

to try something different!

There's nothing left in my life

except for Kang Pil-gu!

I'm done!

I mean, of course…

I'd love to do it.

- Right?
- I knew it.

Kang Pil-gu forever!

It's much better to play Kang Pil-gu

than to be in an iffy rom-com
that only gets 2% ratings.

Of course.

- That's much better.
- Exactly.

But you know,

- I've been a bit scared these days.
- What?

If I want to last long as an actor,

I'm afraid my role as Kang Pil-gu

- must end here--
- That's because your acting is so good!

Like those mistresses
you see in soap operas.

Those actresses get slapped on the back
and cursed at by people on the street.

It's like a badge of honor.

- Of course, it is.
- Hello?

Hello?

Yes, of course. Excuse me.

Right.

Yes.

Oh, I see.

Excuse me, where's the restroom?

The restroom is over there.

Over there? Thank you.

Why is the lock broken?

Darn.

What if Mr. Lim
absolutely refuses to do it?

All he'll get right now
are iffy supporting roles.

Who will give him a role
in a melodrama or rom-com at his age?

He's stuck with Kang Pil-gu.

I think he's trying to
negotiate a higher pay.

So just play along for a bit.

What? A reporter snuck in?

What do you mean, a reporter came in?

Were you not monitoring the guests?

Wait, excuse me!

- Hey!
- Hey!

- What are you doing?
- I'm sorry!

I'll leave soon. Just be quiet.

- This is the men's--
- Be quiet!

What's going on?

I'm really sorry,
but I'm going to have to step on you.

My leg! Watch my neck!

My neck!

My shoes!

Hurry up! Give me my shoes!

- Here.
- I'm sorry.

I'll cover the cost for your phone.
Call me at 0259-2151.

Give me a call. I'm really sorry!

My phone?

My phone!

Are you kidding me?

Seriously?

Damn it!

There's a crazy woman here.

Some crazy woman
came into the restroom and…

Is she a stalker?

Anyway, I just got attacked!

I had an upset stomach
and went to the restroom.

She came in all of a sudden,
stepped all over me,

and then disappeared…

And my phone fell in the toilet--

You're Kang Pil-gu!

You're Good Detective Kang Pil-gu, right?

Who knew I'd see you here, Detective?
It's such an honor!

I watched every single season.

Thank you.

So did someone barge into the restroom?

No, don't worry about it.

Go Kang Pil-gu!

All he'll get right now
are iffy supporting roles.

Who will give him a role
in a melodrama or rom-com at his age?

He's stuck with Kang Pil-gu.

What is it? Are you in a bad mood again?

I wouldn't have gone there
if I'd known what it was about.

A private hostess bar, no less.

I know. That's why I didn't tell you.

Mr. Hwang.

I mean it when I say
that I won't play Kang Pil-gu anymore.

Okay, I got it.
We'll talk about that later.

Will you be okay at the award ceremony?

I can tell you're worried,
taking those herbal calming pills.

Do I have to go to the award ceremony?

I'm not even getting one.

You received an award last year,
so now it's your turn to give one.

I'm sick right now.

Come on, I'm in pain.

Fine. Take some more pills.

Blown away

In the wind--

OBTAINED HOSTESS ENTERTAINMENT VIDEO

NO CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE

WOO YOUNG-SUK, AIDE

Does Assemblyman Ha
really have nothing to do

with the redevelopment in Cheongwon City?

Are you saying his aide
took all that money for himself?

Mr. Woo, an aide
to Assemblyman Ha Gee-wan,

was found dead.

Officials are considering
the possibility of suicide.

Mr. Woo's family
wants to avoid escalating the issue.

So if you keep poking around,

a lot of people will get hurt, understand?

WOO YOUNG-SUK

You're here again, Ms. Wi.

It's been a long time.

It's already been seven years.

You really don't have to come anymore.

Thank you for everything.

It's not over yet.

I'll find out what Mr. Woo wanted to say

and how his death was staged as a suicide.

I'll get to the bottom of it.

EUNSEONGILBO

My apologies, sir.

I trust you'll take care of that reporter.

Yes, sir. Understood.

A sports tabloid?

Get back to work, everyone.

Just work the entertainment desk
for a year, okay?

The entertainment desk?

You're bumping me to the sports tabloid,
and not even for a transfer?

But you saw that video, Chief.
It's a major scoop!

The video barely shows any faces,

and there aren't any audible voices,
so how is that a scoop?

I understand why you want to
sweep this under the rug.

But let's be honest, Chief.
You recognized who it was.

Hey.

One wrong move,
and your petty desire for fame

will land us in hot water.

Do you want to see
the entire political desk get wiped out?

Do you cherry-pick articles
to write for your petty paycheck?

What the hell did you say?

You just crossed the line.
How dare you say that?

I'm a political reporter.

I refuse to be forced

to work the entertainment desk.

That little brat…

But why is she coming?

They've been looking for ways
to get rid of her for a while.

She's addicted to work

and has absolutely no social skills.

I hear she's really unlikeable.

Hey, we're not a damage control team!

That's enough. Stop making a big deal
out of someone joining us.

How come none of you seem worried
after writing such a lousy story today?

The Geumsang Arts Awards is today, right?

Find out who wore similar dresses
or who was a fashion disaster,

and write it up before the ceremony.

The battle of the red carpet dresses.
Who will be the winners and losers?

First, the organizer of this ceremony
and the one who made today possible.

Chairman Lee Dae-ho, a young leader

- guiding the industry forward.
- Chairman!

-With an aura that could rival an actor,
-Chairman!

he's stepped onto the red carpet.

Chairman Lee Dae-ho!

I'm from the political desk!

Sir! Chairman Lee!

Excuse me, Chairman Lee!

I'm from the political desk!

Sir! Chairman Lee!

Don't miss out on the man making
an appearance on the red carpet now.

He's successfully led the drama,
Good Detective Kang Pil-gu.

Last year, he won the Best Actor award

- at the Geumsang Arts Awards…
- Chairman Lee Dae-ho!

Please comment on
the retaliatory personnel decisions

taking place at Eunseongilbo!

Where are you from?

I'm Wi Jeong-sin from the political desk!

You've been avoiding my calls
and refusing to meet me,

so I was forced to come here!

- Let's talk next time.
- Sir!

Please cancel my personnel transfer!

We'll talk next time.

Excuse me.

Mr. Lim!

SPECIAL THANKS TO OH YEON-SEO
FOR HER APPEARANCE

NICE TO NOT MEET YOU

Of course, I'm struggling.

You must have a bad memory.

We actually met in a very dramatic way.

There's no way this woman is a reporter.

You can't embarrass a reporter like that!

- Do you want to bury Lim Hyeon-jun?
- Yes!

Everyone has dirt to hide,
and where there's smoke, there's fire.

Reporter Wi Jeong-sin will not be allowed
to take part in this interview.

Groveling at my feet
wouldn't have been enough!

I'm just returning the favor.

This reporter is a damn lunatic!
