Original subtitles

Therefore, in order to heighten society's vigilance

against the dangers of narcotics addiction,

the prosecution seeks the sentence of death.

Ten years in these robes…

…and I've learned one thing.

I pledge… I pledge…

…before the proud taegeukgi…

- …to devote… - …to devote…

…my loyalty to the president…

…and the everlasting glory of our homeland.

Just because we wear the same clothes and stand in the same place

doesn't mean we walk the same path.

Some pledge their hearts

to the nation.

Some

rise in its defense.

And some

betray it to its fall.

I got it.

Baek kitae knew exactly what kind of path

he was choosing for himself.

And what kind of bloodshed it would demand.

There's only one reason men like him cry patriotism.

To line their own pockets

with the nation's name.

For me,

patriotism means fighting those bastards to the bitter end.

Geonyoung.

Geonyoung!

Geonyoung!

Geonyoung!

Hyeeun.

- Hyeeun! - Geonyoung… hyeeun!

Geonyoung.

Hyeeun!

What are you doing here?

… geonyoung!

So…

Are you awake now?

Baek kitae, you son of a bitch!

Why did you tail director hwang that day?

Did you kill him with kang daeil's help?

Hey!

What the hell are you up to, you bastard?

Ms. Jang hyeeun.

You know Kim minsu, right?

Your guitar instructor.

Under orders from the north,

he recruited factory girls and formed an underground organization.

And the operation funds he got from the north?

You, Ms. Jang hyeeun, were the one managing them.

You son of a bitch! What the hell are you talking about?

It was just money we pooled for club activities…

Then, I'm guessing your brother knew

that you're a commie.

Prosecutor jang over there

leaked internal information on Kim minsu's case,

- and you passed it on to him, right? - No, that never happened!

No, geonyoung did nothing wrong!

Does that mean…

You did do something?

Hyeeun! Hyeeun, it's okay!

Hyeeun, it's okay. Stay calm!

- You are… - trust me!

…deeply involved with Kim minsu.

Right?

- Hyeeun! - The thing is… hyeeun! Don't say anything!

Hyeeun! No! Don't say anything!

Hyeeun! Don't fall for that!

Hyeeun, it's okay!

I, Kim minsu, received operation funds from the north

- …and ran an underground organization… - no!

- …with jang hyeeun. - Hyeeun, look at me!

- Look at me! Trust me! - Through her…

…older brother, jang geonyoung, she passed me intel…

Baek kitae, you bastard! Come here!

Come here! Talk to me!

Talk to me, you bastard!

You came after me…

Without being ready for this?

This fight won't end until one of us is dead.

And it sure won't be me.

Mr. Jang.

Can you see clearly now?

- What happened? - Yesterday, prosecutor jang's sister

was arrested by the kcia for violating the anti-communist law.

Looks like they're trying to drag jang into it.

Those cocky little bastards have no sense of decency…

How dare they go after a prosecutor?

Do they think the prosecution sits under them?

This could shake the entire organization, so we need to respond right away, sir.

We'll lodge an official protest and find a way to pull jang out.

What about that thing you brought chief na last time?

It seemed like he was pleased with it.

We're in for an all-out war.

Brace yourselves.

Yes, sir.

So, how did your meeting go with the president?

Well, ceo Kim of seongwan constructions

got his nomination,

and taejong group was given a little more time.

Congratulations, chief.

Chief cheon won't be too happy when he hears about this.

What's he going to do?

This is what the president wants. What can we do?

Chief.

What's going on?

We just got an urgent call from the prosecutors' office.

It seems like the kcia grabbed one of their prosecutors.

Chief na, what brings you here?

You tell me.

I didn't want to get involved,

but I just heard something outrageous.

You know the entire prosecutors' office is in an uproar right now, right?

Not really.

Did something happen?

Look, everyone knows the kcia is in your hands,

but don't make it so obvious.

The president always stresses

that we should each stay in our Lane and do our jobs.

Meaning there are lines we shouldn't cross.

You say that, but you seem to be…

Paying a lot more attention to the prosecution these days.

With the election coming up, the president has a lot on his mind.

Let's not take things too far

and just focus on what each of us is supposed to do.

That's all I'm saying.

I'm sorry, sir.

If I'd known about it, I would've let you know right away.

But baek went rogue on this, and I couldn't…

So you're saying…

Baek kitae arrested a prosecutor

without my permission?

Yes, sir.

But things are not looking too bad.

We've got a solid case against the sister, so even if the prosecution pushes back,

- it won't be easy to get out of... - Hey.

Yes, sir?

- Hey. - Yes, sir.

Have you no control over baek?

Do you or not?

I do, sir. I have control over him.

- Do your job right. - Yes, sir. I'll do it right.

Do it right.

Yes, sir. I will…

I'll do it right.

As you can see,

Kim minsu sold your sister out to save his own skin.

If what he wrote there is true,

your sister could face the death penalty for espionage.

Using a public security case…

To screw me over?

And dragging my sister into it too?

Mr. Baek kitae.

You think I'll just accept…

- These statements in court? - Doesn't matter if you accept them or not.

If we push it through, it'll hold enough weight in court.

Come on, you know this already.

If you want to save your sister, sign it.

When you're given a chance, you take it.

You don't want your only sibling

to end up like your father, do you?

Come on, outside.

It's important.

- Hey. - What is it?

I got chewed out for pulling shit without reporting in.

Orders are, let jang go right away…

…and focus on the Japan deal.

I'll take care of it.

Take care of it how exactly?

You know the election's right around the corner.

The amount of funds we secure now will decide the game.

That's exactly why I'm doing this.

I need to deal with jang for good to focus on the deal...

It looks like the prosecutors got chief na on their side.

The higher-ups already agreed to take jang out of play,

so you just stick to business.

You know that…

Chief cheon never repeats himself, right?

I've delivered his message then.

Next time, run it by me first, will you?

Not cool.

Come on out.

Hold still. Hey, hang on.

Mr. Jang.

The other day,

you asked me if I trusted baek kitae.

I thought about it,

and there's no reason you and I can't get along.

You son of a bitch.

From now on, let's get along.

You get what I'm saying?

I'll be in touch.

Hey!

Where's hyeeun?

She's fine. Don't worry.

Mr. Jang!

What the heck…

Everything okay while I was gone?

Pack your stuff.

We're clearing out

and heading back to the office.

What are you talking about, sir?

No more secret investigations.

Mr. Jang.

Did something happen to you?

We've got plenty of work piled up at the office.

From now on, we stick to our duty.

What happened with prosecutor jang?

We don't need to worry about him anymore?

He won't be able to make a move anytime soon.

… all right.

Anyway, make sure you deliver the goods on time.

My father's not as forgiving as I am.

I keep my promises.

What about the raw materials?

We can scale up production as much as we want.

The problem is securing the source.

Breaking into the Taiwan supply line isn't easy, either.

That's actually why I called.

To hit the volume I set,

securing a stable supply comes first.

Can you go overseas with me next week?

There's someone we need to meet in Saigon.

Why aren't they moving?

Geez, what are they doing?

The mango juice here is amazing.

Hold on a second.

Excuse me.

Two cups of mango juice, please.

Here you go.

Did you hear the news?

There was a big mess in nha trang a few days ago.

What happened?

Apparently, inspectors came from back home

and turned the whole unit upside down.

You know captain yoon, the one who got caught skimming supplies with us soldiers?

He's been ordered back home.

How do you even know all this?

Come on. I've been out here for over two years.

I could call the viet cong my brothers at this point.

Lieutenant!

Sir.

The company commander is asking for you.

Someone's come from Seoul.

From Seoul? Who?

Korea military academy, class 26. Top of your class.

Born in Japan, both parents deceased…

- Your brother's with the kcia? - Yes, sir.

Man, it's hot?

The temperature's lower than in Seoul,

but it's the damn humidity that drives you crazy.

Is it always like this here?

It's worse now during monsoon season.

Listen.

Do you know why I came all the way from Seoul?

What about why I called you in?

I'm not sure, sir.

You were questioned by nam sanguk before, right?

- Did he say anything about me? - Not that I recall, sir.

Yeah? Guess you two aren't that close.

Well, that prick was always stuck-up, coming from a fancy family.

Good thing we shipped him off.

What, you didn't know?

That jerk got kicked out of security command.

Anyway, you look like you've been through some shit.

Probably got more sense than he does.

Though we'll have to see if you measure up to your big brother.

I'm sorry, but I don't follow.

I'm saying I've got a job for you.

What? You don't want to get promoted?

That's not it, sir.

Everyone who comes out here's only got promotion on their mind, right?

Isn't that why you're out here slaving away?

You'll start tomorrow.

I'll clear a desk for you.

Get your bearings for a few days, then you'll serve under colonel ch...

You know chu gwangseop, commander of the 29th infantry regiment?

Yes, I do, sir.

Go under him and report every damn thing he does,

without leaving out a single detail.

Do this right, and nam sanguk's former post…

Will be yours.

This is prosecutor jang geonyoung, the one I mentioned before.

Come on, pour him a drink.

I'm jang geonyoung.

Let me pour you a drink, chief na.

Even after all you've been through, your spirit hasn't broken.

Mr. Jang, you're a true patriot? They're hard to come by.

If you support the prosecution, sir,

I'll bring clear proof

that chief cheon seokjung is backing baek kitae.

Rush in too soon, and it'll backfire on you like last time.

There's one thing I learned during my recent detention at the kcia.

The evidence to bring down chief cheon will come

straight from baek kitae himself.

How would you make that happen?

First, we'll put baek in custody…

Cheon's the kind of guy who'll cut off his tail first when things blow up.

And baek knows that well.

He'll do whatever he can

to save his own skin.

Like an internal conflict?

If you give me a chance…

I'll get him no matter what.

You may lower your head,

but you're not the sort to ever bow to anyone.

If you're looking for a blade against cheon,

he's not a bad choice, sir.

Hey, you came.

What do you want? Why'd you ask to see me?

I just want to get closer to you.

Thinking of jumping ship?

Well, I get it. At this rate, baek kitae will push you aside

and take hwang's place.

Not you, Mr. Pyo.

You're right.

Let's be honest with each other.

Lately, the president seems to be pushing chief cheon away.

Best to go with the flow, right?

How was your dinner with chief na?

So you're interested in him as well?

How did you know about that?

Work in the kcia for over a decade,

and you know everything.

What can I do for you?

When baek kitae handed money over to cheon,

you think that's all he did?

Or what?

Baek kitae has

a recording of cheon.

Bring it to me.

If you do,

it'll be you…

Not baek kitae.

So?

How does that sound?

Sounds good.

Where did you say you were going? Saigon?

Yeah.

For how long?

Not long.

Just keep an eye on jang geonyoung for me.

If anything happens, call me right away.

Got it.

Hey, can I bum a smoke?

You want to live till you're old and gray. Why start again?

Maybe because life's looking up.

Got the craving back.

I knew you wouldn't last forever.

The lighter.

- You can have the rest of the pack. - Thanks, man.

Security command? So, what's the big deal?

Goddamn bastards.

I could just…

Fucking hell.

Hey, let's go.

Let's go, kid.

Hey!

What the hell are you doing?

Sir.

Look at this clown.

Major Lee from the anti-communist bureau recommended you?

- Yes, sir. - That's impressive, kid.

You won over someone as strict as he is.

Not at all, sir. It's an honor to serve under you.

Colonel chu gwangseop. Korea military academy, class 11.

- Now, get the hell in. - Yes, sir.

He earned the president's trust

when he was with the capital Garrison command,

and was the first of his class to get promoted.

He never cared for combat,

and spent his days entertaining guests and partying.

Sneaking out supplies was just routine for him.

The man's got quite the reputation.

But this time, it's on a whole different scale.

There are some Vietnamese officers colluding with local arms traffickers,

and we have intel that chu's been in frequent contact with them lately.

There he is.

Soon to be our partner who'll save us, Jason Chang.

He's Taiwanese-American, and has a firm grip on the smuggling route

for raw materials used to make Taiwanese meth.

He's been busy pushing heroin here in Saigon the last few years, though.

I'm glad you got in touch.

I didn't think you'd fly all the way to Saigon.

As I mentioned on the call,

I have a partner I really want to introduce you to.

Mr. Baek is in need of a large quantity of raw materials.

I told him you might be able to help.

Well, I've never done business with Koreans before.

I don't want to waste my time on a rookie and take a risk.

It's just as I expected.

He's worried because you're a rookie.

Saigon has changed a lot.

American soldiers are openly doing drugs.

No wonder they lost the war.

Were you in Vietnam?

I was in the jungle in '65.

Back then, the Americans had some sense of justice.

A lot of us died fighting the viet cong in the jungle.

We, the Americans, the viet cong.

You must have made a lot of money?

The war is coming to an end now.

Aren't you gonna make some money?

See for yourself.

You'll think differently when you see it.

Sir!

At ease.

Wait here.

Yes, sir.

Second floor, last room down the hall.

Colonel chu's meeting a Vietnamese officer there today.

Okay. So?

Can you handle it smoothly this time again?

If you're smooth, I'm smooth too.

The items I deliver are all top-notch.

You know that, right?

What the viet cong wants is not Korean weapons.

They need the m16 or heavy machine guns the Americans use.

That's also possible.

There are a few things we've skimmed from the American soldiers.

Good.

Come in.

Show me what you've got.

Ever seen a rookie make something like this?

A 100% purity.

What a beauty.

Deal?

Deal.

If I arrest baek kitae,

your sister goes to prison,

and you, Mr. Baek kihyun,

might be forced out of the army too.

It was really good.

Are you all right?

What are you doing here?

- Hey, let's go! - What happened to your face?

Hey, baek! Let's go, kid!

What the hell are you doing?

Out of the way!

President park is scheduled to hold a campaign rally

in Busan tomorrow at 2:00 P.M.

Large crowds are expected to gather at the venue from early morning.

After the rally, president park will…

When the president comes to Busan tomorrow,

chief cheon seokjung will accompany him, right?

I guess so.

And that's our chance.

… while cheon's out of Seoul,

that's when we strike.

- Soyeong! Soyeong! - Daeil!

You don't have an umbrella? It's pouring!

Did you bring what I asked for?

Yeah.

I was worried kitae might find out, so I couldn't sneak out much. Sorry.

If he finds out the stuff's hitting Busan streets, he won't sit still.

You sure about this?

I'll figure out a way to get the money. Just wait a little.

Don't worry about it anymore. This is all I need.

How can I not worry?

Neither you nor kitae will tell me what's going on...

I said, don't worry about it!

I'll…

I'll see you later.

Daeil.

Sunyeong.

- Daeil! - Hold still!

No!

Daeil!

Don't make this hard!

Daeil!

- Baek soyeong! - Let go!

No! Stop that!

Let go of me! Let go!

Kang daeil.

Hey, kang daeil!

Damn it, you idiot!

Hey, did you just dodge?

You dodged?

Are you just stupid?

Or you think I'm a goddamn joke?

You had the fucking nerve to screw me over

and still show up to see baek soyeong?

Well…

You can't do anything now anyway, right?

The narcotics unit's been shut down.

It's all over, isn't it?

You asshole.

You'll rot in prison, you son of a bitch.

I told you there's only one way for you to get out of this alive, didn't I?

You don't know what you're talking about.

If I betray kitae…

I'm dead for real.

Yeah, that's why… baek kitae, damn it.

That's why you should put him behind bars with your own hands!

Hey! Kang daeil!

Listen carefully if you want your sentence reduced.

Confess to everything. Say baek kitae made you do it.

Got it? You understand?

What the hell are you looking at?

This bastard.

Let me see, damn it.

You've been toying with meth, and now you've turned into a damn junkie.

How many times do I have to ask?

You've been keeping baek kitae's ledgers.

Where are they?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

You know

my brother's a public official.

Yeah?

Then what about the meth here?

Are you saying you got this on your own?

Are you seriously going to take all the blame?

Why would you do that for a guy who dragged his own sister into his mess

and turned her into a criminal?

Can I have a cigarette, please?

Thanks.

Sunyeong… right.

Ms. Yejin.

You told me you had older brothers.

Was that true?

I only have two younger siblings.

Well then,

you should know.

You see,

I feel sorry for my big brother.

Our parents died young,

and he had to feed us, clothe us, and put us through school.

Do you have any idea how hard he worked?

And now…

…you're telling me to sell him out just to save myself?

No, I'd rather die.

How did it go?

Baek soyeong didn't even bat an eye.

She'd jump straight into hellfire if he told her to.

Well, good thing we got at least one of them to talk.

- What do you mean? - Kang daeil confessed.

Are you serious?

Yeah.

It was all…

Kitae. He made me do it.

Baek kitae's the one who suggested it.

He said we should really expand the meth business.

The ikeda clan…

When manjae was alive…

Soyeong doesn't know any of this.

I just asked her

to bring it to me, and she did.

That's all, I swear.

Mr. Jang.

Soyeong really doesn't know anything, okay?

Promise me. She doesn't know anything.

She has nothing to do with this!

- Daeil. Daeil, I hear you. - She doesn't know anything.

I need you to promise me. Promise me.

All right.

I hear you, so calm down.

You're doing great, okay? Just trust me.

Okay.

You're going to say the whole thing again

from start to finish.

Slowly and clearly.

Ready, go.

It was all…

Kitae. He made me do it.

He said we should really expand the meth business.

Who the hell are you? Gangsters?

Excuse me.

Esteemed kcia agents, the Busan district prosecutors' office

requests your cooperation in carrying out our official duties.

"Search and seizure warrant"?

Well, screw you.

Yeah, well, that's the plan.

Push through!

Go! Go! Go!

Get in there! Go!

Don't let them push you back! Go!

Go!

Open the door!

You don't point a gun at a fellow public servant!

Goddamn it!

What the fuck's going on?

Fucking hell!

What a mess!

Who are you?

Who are you?

Mr. Baek kitae!

Come with us.

What do you think you're doing?

Serving the country.

I'm serving the country too.

- Cuff him. - Yes, sir.

All right, let's go.

- Make way, please. - Clear the way.

Come on.

- Coming through. - Step aside, please.

My fellow citizens of Busan.

Thanks to your support in the 5th and 6th presidential elections,

I was elected president twice.

Chief,

the prosecutors have arrested baek from the kcia.

I have always been grateful for that support.

We just got word.

They've raided chief cheon's office too.

Tell them to strike hard. No hesitation, no half measures.

This is our chance

to wipe out all those kcia men in the blue house.

And I…

Step outside for a minute.

- Pardon? - Go have a smoke.

It was all…

Kitae. He made me do it.

Baek kitae's the one who suggested it.

He said we should really expand the meth business.

There's this yakuza clan

manjae tried to deal with

back when he was alive.

Baek kitae…

And that woman named ikeda yuji…

Made a deal…

Daeil seemed to care a lot about baek soyeong.

Turns out the bastard's a romantic.

Thanks to that, everything went smoothly.

All right, Mr. Kang daeil.

Write down everything you've told us about baek kitae so far.

Don't leave out a single thing.

This is the meth

baek soyeong was distributing.

With kang daeil.

It's a massive amount,

and we caught it.

Baek soyeong and kang daeil

were skimming off meth

behind your back.

You get the picture now?

If you lock me up,

you think you're going to move up in the world?

What are you doing this for?

I want to get rid of people like you

from this world.

You want to change the world?

That kind of thing?

Even if I'm gone, the world isn't going to change.

When you handed the money to chief cheon,

you got that on tape, didn't you?

That tape.

Hand it over to me.

Otherwise, you're going to prison.

Both you

and your sister.

You think cheon's going to protect you?

I'll handle it and ensure it never causes you any trouble, Mr. President.

What happened?

Baek kitae's being questioned at the prosecutors' office,

but things are not looking good, sir.

What about pyo?

I can't reach him.

To him, you're just a tool he can toss aside anytime he wants.

You know that better than anyone.

Where's the tape you recorded of him?

If there was such a thing, you'd already have it.

You guys have already torn through

my house and my office.

Mr. Baek.

Do you trust pyo haksu?

Should be interesting.

I wonder what'll happen

if cheon finds out you made

a recording of him.

Mr. Baek, you've come this far.

Let's see it through.

Have you heard of the cu chi tunnels?

They're underground tunnels the viet cong dug to take cover from us bombing.

They're barely big enough for one person to squeeze through.

It was hard even to breathe in there.

What are you talking about?

Just let me finish my story. It's not that long.

I've never told this to anyone before.

I'm sharing it only with you, Mr. Jang.

My company was sent in with orders to root out the viet cong hideouts.

Those tunnels were like a maze.

Hard to see ahead,

never knowing where a bullet might come from.

Fear closes in, and the only thing you can rely on is your comrades.

All you can do is follow them forward.

Commander, we've got a radio message.

What's the situation?

It is a viet cong hideout, sir.

Continue the search and report back as you go.

Colonel.

Colonel!

Sir, we've confirmed it's a viet cong hideout.

We should pull out.

The guys wanted to pull out,

but I couldn't do that.

Why?

Because I was a soldier, and soldiers follow orders.

I led my guys deeper

into hell.

Boom.

Boom.

Boom.

Boom.

It was us bombing.

The moment they confirmed it was a viet cong hideout,

they started the bombing.

Whether we lived or died didn't matter to them.

After all,

I was just Cannon fodder for someone else's rise.

By sheer luck,

I barely made it out of those tunnels alive.

I went straight to the battalion commander to punch him in the face.

I really wanted to kill that bastard.

But guess what?

I took responsibility for my men's deaths and stepped down,

while that bastard jumped two ranks

and pinned on a star.

Whether you buy it or take it at gunpoint,

I believe

it's those with power who change the world in the end.

You can keep shouting about justice.

But without power,

you're just treated like cattle.

So what?

The world's gone mad…

So you're just going to sell meth and make money?

Don't be ridiculous, asshole.

Your pathetic excuse disgusts me.

Everyone makes their own choices in life.

And you chose

to be a drug dealer

and a killer.

You know the biggest difference between you and me?

I have the power to take responsibility for my choices.

Also, I think you're mistaken.

Chief cheon won't really care whether that tape exists or not.

All that matters to him is whether something benefits him or not.

Because he has power.

Drag it out all you want,

but that tape

will end up in my hands.

I guess you still have faith in people.

Pyo haksu.

Do you trust him?

Let's drink, shall we?

Wow, congratulations.

Chief.

This election is an important one.

You should listen to it yourself, sir.

Look, I'm genuinely curious.

Is it because of your father?

I heard he was a junkie.

He even killed your mom.

You'll never win against me.

Why, you ask?

Because you're one of those foolish cattle who think they can change the world!

I've received your gesture of goodwill.

Quite a sum, I must say.

No one appreciates my efforts like you do, chairman park.

And please tell chairman Kim of taejong group

that he has nothing to worry about.

How dare you bug me?

What the hell are you trying to pull?

Chairman park of seongwan constructions,

chairman Kim of taejong group.

The president was paying extra attention to them ahead of the election, no?

You've got guts, I'll give you that.

You think he'll believe anything you say?

You're already finished.

The raid today

was all signed off by the president himself, too.

Chief na, you still don't know the man, do you?

The president doesn't have much affection for his dogs like you or me.

As long as you don't touch his food,

it doesn't matter if you're a Shepherd or a mutt.

Just wag your tail and you're fine.

But…

You, chief na?

You went and laid your hands right on his food.

I wonder how many more tapes like that are sitting in the kcia.

You son of a bitch!

Hey, man.

You're fucked.

Damn it.

You bastard!

Did you think I wouldn't know

what you'd try to pull

while I was gone?

Prosecutor jang geonyoung met with chief of staff na yongcheol.

He also met with pyo haksu.

Looks like pyo has switched over to jang.

And now,

jang's looking for kang daeil.

That little shit.

You get the picture now?

What the…

Hey, call an ambulance!

Hey, come on! Call an ambulance!

- Somebody, call an ambulance! Now! - Ambulance!

Call an ambulance! Hurry!

Damn it!

I'm going to survive on my own,

not get used and tossed out like you.

Baek kitae.

Baek kitae, come here.

Come here, you bastard.

Who the hell are you?

Baek kitae!

Prosecutor jang geonyoung.

You're under arrest

for bribery.

What?

Goodness…

Hey!

When did you find out

I'd switched over to jang geonyoung?

If cheon seokjung finds out

you switched over to him, what do you think he'll say?

Is that a threat or what?

You sly bastard.

You used me as bait to bring jang geonyoung down?

Hey, pyo.

Get your act together now.

Stop going back and forth between sides.

You're confusing people. All right?

That's right.

In the end, this is what baek kitae chose.

But those who pull the trigger

are never willing to bear the weight of that one shot.

After arresting a large-scale methamphetamine manufacturing ring

and investigating their connections,

prosecutors in Busan found evidence suggesting the group had been

under the protection of a prosecutor in the narcotics unit.

Authorities launched a full investigation into those implicated.

The ringleader, identified as kang,

who had been producing meth illegally and trafficking it to Japan,

reportedly took his own life during a lapse in monitoring,

amidst his questioning last night.

In a note left behind,

kang alleged that prosecutor jang geonyoung…

The dead stay silent,

and what follows falls to the living.

Hello, chief na.

Get rid of jang.

If the blade's broken, you throw it out.

Yes, sir. Understood.

Where's jang hyeeun?

Where's jang hyeeun?

Shut up and put your head on the ground!

Here he comes!

Mr. Jang, are you being taken into custody?

Since when have you been colluding with the drug ring?

To those in power,

the people are still nothing but cattle,

and I, who lived differently from them, am gone.

I wonder.

What was my patriotism truly for?

We closed director hwang's murder case

with kang daeil as the sole culprit as well.

You're a lucky man, baek.

The guy who worked for you took all the blame with him to the grave.

Sniffing out money isn't your only skill. You can use your head too.

It was all thanks to your help, sir.

You got one on me too?

The tape.

No, of course not.

How could you even say that?

Baek.

We're really in the same boat now.

Let's do this right.

We're all set.

All right, go ahead!

Good work, guys.

Cheers.

- Cheers. - Cheers!

I pledge… I pledge…

…before the proud taegeukgi…

…to devote… …to devote…

…my loyalty to the president…

…and the everlasting glory…

…and the everlasting glory…

…of our homeland.

…of our homeland!
