(Seyang Police Station)

(Episode 13)

(Corruption Investigation Team)

What's that you have there?

What is it?

Both cases have something in common.

What?

Someone died when they were on duty.

A gangster Kim Gang Wook was chasing got hit by a car,

and the suspect Park Chan Hee arrested...

died of a heart attack while he was being hospitalized.

Both returned to the office after a six-month leave.

Did they go crazy because of the shock?

What's weirder is that they were allowed to come back.

I requested to have authorization to their hospital records...

- while they were on leave. - Good job.

Young Goon, someone's in the office to see you...

He always leaves without saying anything.

Who are you?

Are you Mr. Kim Young Goon?

Congratulations on arresting the murderers.

One is dead and the other is arrested.

But...

who do you think killed those people?

I said, who are you?

My apologies for the late greeting.

One moment.

I am...

I am Park Jin Woo's lawyer, Yoon Ji Hoon.

(Yoon Ji Hoon, Lawyer)

"Where do you think humanity comes from?"

"How do we differ from animals?"

Someone once asked me that as well.

Did you...

This happened to me when I was with Lawyer Han.

We were married back then.

Would you like a glass too?

We're going to keep this place empty for the time being.

We need a place to talk...

when we arrest the higher-ups like you.

Where's the list and ledger of the Jang Society?

I'll let you go if you give it to me.

I don't have it.

Tell me who took it.

Are you curious about what the Jang Society does?

They do good things.

They bring in the malicious criminals...

who bypass the law.

And cut their fingers,

then kill?

Those jerks we killed and buried.

Is there any officer who doesn't know what kind of people they are?

But...

there isn't a single one of them who was jailed for more than a year.

Because the prosecution and police let them go.

Then why did you sell the drugs?

That was all planned out.

But you ruined it.

What plan?

What is it that you want?

Why did you arrest me, not those opportunists...

like Commissioner Yeom? Is that how you want...

the police to be?

I'm going to overthrow the entire organization.

Everyone can change if they only get the opportunity.

You will?

There are too many jerks like you.

If I get them one by one,

I could grow old and die.

Don't laugh.

If you want to live, you'll have to do as I say.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Lawyer Yoon Ji Hoon will be here soon.

I thought you were taking a rest for the time being?

My acquaintance will be taking the case,

and he wants some help since he has never done a criminal suit.

And that happened to be Deputy Commissioner's case?

Well, it's not like he's a stranger,

and like you said, I've got too much time on my hands.

All right. So who is this "acquaintance"?

Are you Mr. Do?

I am Park Jin Woo's lawyer, Yoon Ji Hoon.

I've already introduced myself to your team members.

Go on in. They're all waiting for you.

Ms. Jo, did someone just come here?

Lawyer Yoon?

- Yes. - How did he seem?

He was very handsome...

and gentle, but...

He's Lawyer Han's ex-husband.

He even talked about having his finger cut off.

And he still wants to defend the person behind it?

Doesn't it seem a bit odd?

All of you, gather around.

(Yoon Ji Hoon, Lawyer)

When did you get that camera installed?

I left Deputy Commissioner Park alone there.

I thought we'd find something if I left him on his own.

He's with Lawyer Han.

Yes, she's here.

We won't be able to hear them, though.

Ms. Jo.

Bring me all the information about this handsome guy.

Yes, sir.

"Yoon Ji Hoon".

How do you and Lawyer Yoon know each other?

Are you talking about your husband?

My ex-husband.

He came to see me two days after you were arrested...

to ask me to take your case with him.

Anyway...

All is well if you decided to take it.

Lawyer Yoon was hurt a lot both physically and emotionally.

I don't want to see him...

get hurt anymore, Deputy Commissioner Park.

Are you trying to make a request or a warning?

It's a warning.

I don't warn twice.

You can discuss the details with Lawyer Yoon.

I'm only helping on the side.

The scar...

Isn't that because of you?

I know he's been getting treatment for a long time now.

That scar is there because of your henchmen.

Not that. His emotional scar.

Didn't he get hurt...

because of you?

You two can discuss.

Keep that on, Ji Hoon.

Okay.

I met the Corruption Investigation Team members.

I'm planning on set you free from the detection.

Have you thought of anything?

You're the lawyer, so I'll just do as you say.

All right, then.

Here is about Lawyer Yoon Ji Hoon.

He's from Class 32. The same as Lawyer Han.

He had both thumbs cut off seven years ago.

He had an emergency surgery to stitch them back,

but it failed, so he went through another one.

When did they get divorced?

Two years ago, according to official records.

They were treated together after the surgery,

then he left the country in 2014.

Then Lawyer Han came back to the office early last year,

and Lawyer Yoon came back to Korea one month ago.

"One month"?

So he took this case as soon as he came back?

Or he came back because of this case.

He mostly stayed in the States and Mexico.

Ms. Jo.

Check if he had any problems there.

Yes, sir.

Where are you going, Young Goon?

I'm going to ask Lawyer Han myself.

Lawyer Han. Are you still at the station?

I thought you were taking a break.

I was going to, but someone I knew asked a favor.

Lawyer Yoon?

Is it because you felt bad?

Do you think it was your fault?

The jerk who tortured him is at fault, not you.

No. I was just curious.

He never contacted me once after our divorce.

But now he wants me to take the case with him,

and that case happened to be Deputy Commissioner Park's.

It's just an anxious curiosity, and that's it.

Yoon Ji Hoon spoke to me about humanity.

Did you say you were attacked...

when you tried to reinvestigate my mom's case?

Could I...

get more details about that incident?

Let's go to my office.

We found a small amount of sweat and blood...

on your mother's clothes.

It was too little...

that we couldn't extract enough DNA to compare with the suspects.

Is that why it got left out in the case records?

Kim Jae Myung confessed,

so the evidence itself got forgotten.

Then the National Forensic Service got new equipment,

and they could extract DNA from even the slightest amount.

And you experimented it on my mom's clothes?

Yes.

It was my first case, so it was always on my mind.

I thought Kim Jae Myung's name would obviously show up,

but it didn't.

It was someone else's saliva and blood.

The police wanted to compare it...

with the National Forensic Service's database.

So that they could reinvestigate it if someone else's name showed up.

And I guess the higher-ups rejected it?

I tried to track it down on my own, so I brought the evidence home...

And did Turtle take the evidence?

Yes.

He stole it from me.

Do you have anything to say?

That night,

he asked me about humanity.

"Where do you think humanity comes from?"

"Where do you think humanity comes from?"

"How do we differ from animals?"

Our thumbs are different.

Human thumbs face the other fingers,

so we can make delicate movements.

Twist, hold, write...

Where did you learn that?

I read it in a book when I was young.

Then you should have told us earlier!

You never asked.

(Seyang Police Station)

Upon reviewing the case,

I discovered many strange things.

The time that the drugs appeared.

And the time you carried out the seize and search.

Is it possible...

that someone set Park Jin Woo in a trap?

We can talk about that in court.

I am going to start by challenging the legality of his confinement.

You have no grounds for arrest investigation.

As you wish.

Why don't you end the investigation now...

and release Park Jin Woo?

That is how you are going to avoid embarrassing yourself.

Why did you decide to take the case all of a sudden?

I heard you caught the culprit who did this to me.

I heard he is in a coma.

So?

I always wondered.

Who did it? Why me?

I just learned a legal path to find out why.

If you have anything to propose, you can tell me anytime.

We are open to any conditions.

Where do you think our humanity comes from?

What do you mean?

I am sure you thought about it many times.

I thought about it, but I still am not sure.

Do you know?

Lawyer Han...

is worried about you.

- So? - So don't let her down.

Like a human.

You don't know too.

- Mr. Do. - Yes?

Why did Turtle cut people's thumbs?

I heard that the biggest difference between humans and animals is...

Thumbs?

I think there is a more practical reason.

And what is that?

If you break the thumb, a person cannot resist anymore.

Without a thumb,

a person cannot grab a knife, or even a pencil.

How do you know that? Did you do martial arts?

A friend of mine taught me.

He taught me that when catching a vicious criminal,

in case of emergency, I should break his or her thumb.

And who was that friend?

Jae Myung.

We will call it a day. Should we continue tomorrow?

Sure.

Thanks for helping me out. I was worried.

That I won't help you?

We didn't end well.

I'll get going.

Do you have plans tonight?

No. Why?

Well, I was wondering if you want to go for a drink.

I can tell you about what I have been doing.

And I am curious...

what you've been up to.

Maybe next time. After the case is over.

Sure.

Do you still hate me?

It is all in the past.

I forgot about it.

Mr. Do,

Lawyer Yoon was very successful as a lawyer in the US too.

He was in trade business between the US and Mexico.

And this is his first case since his return to Korea.

Did he finish his treatment?

I am not sure about his treatment in the US.

But since his return, he had two sessions...

at Happiness Clinic.

Maybe he joined to know about the past.

Why? For revenge?

Now that we caught Turtle,

he might be curious about the leaders.

Lawyer Han said...

that she'd stop once we catch the killer.

Yoon Ji Hoon might have different definition and scope on his revenge.

He could join as the lawyer for the deputy commissioner...

and try to figure out the leaders.

What about Lawyer Han?

Is she really helping out of curiosity?

Ms. Jo.

Would you help your ex-husband if you were in her shoes?

I am not sure.

I have never married.

I apologize.

But if I were her,

I would prefer to avoid him.

I would be really sorry and feel awful about it,

and looking at him would keep bringing back bad memories.

Right.

Who should be next?

I will just cut one and leave after your answer.

I will tell you everything. I will tell you anything.

You are going to tell me eventually.

Who should be next?

Him.

What?

You need to speak clearly.

You already know. Stop it!

Did you...

just ask me to cut off your husband's thumb?

(Lawyer, Han Tae Joo)

Lawyer Han.

Yes?

You just screamed. Is everything okay?

I fell asleep.

Let's call it a day and go home.

Is it because of Lawyer Yoon?

What is?

You dream more often since you met him.

Maybe it's for the better for you to rest...

and let Yoon Ji Hoon take care of the rest.

I thought of that too.

But I realized something.

Even if you catch the culprit and the real killer is dead,

it is not the end.

There are people who are hurt because of me.

You don't need to worry. I am fine.

I'll get the car ready.

(Lawyer, Han Tae Joo)

(Money Lover)

I know it has been a while.

I've been busy.

Yoon Ji Hoon. Class 32 of Lawyer Training Institute.

Look into him for me.

Look into what he has been up to.

(Hanil Hospital)

(Wonju Apartment)

(Medical Record)

This is like a hospital.

(February 2018, Seyang Hospital)

(July 2009, Outpatient at Seyang Hospital Orthopedics)

I am not sure about his treatment in the US.

But since his return, he had two sessions at Happiness Clinic.

(Call)

(Jo Soo Yeon)

What do you want this time?

The mental hospital that Yoon Ji Hoon went.

Kim Gang Wook and Park Chan Hee also went there.

Isn't that strange?

Maybe it is famous.

Please. Let me sleep at night.

If you can't sleep, meet a friend or something!

You don't have a boyfriend too.

(Seyang Police Station)

Mr. Do,

(Medical Record)

Kim Gang Wook and Park Chan Hee see a shrink during their breaks.

And?

At Happiness Clinic. They treat police officers.

If there is any other police killer other than Turtle,

it is likely that he attended here.

And you think that person might have killed your mother?

Yes.

After Ji Gil Soo and Jang Hyung Koo died in 2003,

there's a break until Kim Joong San's death two years ago.

There must be one more killer.

The first murder needs a motive and reason.

You told me that.

Maybe he was in therapy.

That clinic opened in 2002, so the timeline fits too.

- A search and seizure warrant? - Yes.

If we narrow down possible suspects with the list of police patients.

No.

The killer maybe someone that we do not know.

Someone who is retired or has disappeared.

Like you said, the killer was not active for a few years.

My father.

What if my father was Turtle?

He was cornered and framed as a corrupted police officer,

accidentally killed his wife who told him to turn himself in.

That is how I testified 15 years ago.

You saw the wrong person.

They were arguing that day.

I'll take care of it. Don't worry.

No. You are acting strange these days.

Talk to me.

I'll take care of it. Let's get out of here.

After my mom was killed and my dad was arrested,

the killing stopped.

That is why I want to catch Turtle even more.

If I start to think this way,

I will think about it forever.

According to your logic,

I can be Turtle too.

At the time, I was angry and fueled by revenge.

I blamed myself for the death of Officier Jang.

I could have accidentally killed your mom...

and manipulated the evidence.

Why do you say that?

I am telling you not to conclude who the murderer is.

With one wrong choice,

you will only continue in the wrong direction.

Like you?

Yes, like me.

Good morning!

Maybe not.

No search and seizure warrant. We won't get the warrant.

Then what should we do?

Ms. Jo.

Go to see a shrink with Young Goon.

A shrink? Me?

I heard it was hard for you to leave the National Forensic Service.

Maybe this is a chance for you to talk to a doctor.

See if the doctor will show you the medical records if you ask.

Mr. Do.

I'll take full responsibility.

Let's go.

You really want me to go?

Come on, let's go.

The police will reimburse for all treatment sessions.

You just need to talk.

How? It is my first time too.

It is just like how you treat the flu.

Koreans think very negatively about therapies...

but that shouldn't be the case.

Then why don't you get the treatment?

I don't believe in therapy.

What? Then why should I do it?

You tried but it wasn't good, right?

I never was in one.

Then how do you know?

I just know.

You just know? What?

(Happiness Clinic)

- Goodness. - Oh no.

Thank you.

Was it good?

Very.

After pouring out everything in my heart,

I felt so good.

Then I started to cry.

I never knew I was so lonely.

It was really enlightening.

What about the doctor?

The doctor changed.

The previous hospital shut down.

It shut down?

After the hospital closed, the doctor went abroad.

- When? - Two weeks ago.

The hospital was really cheap because it was an urgent sell.

It is very suspicious, including the timing.

After we went after Turtle and Yoon Ji Hoon got his treatment,

then the doctor ran away.

Can you not reach that doctor?

No. His number is no longer in service.

There are no records of him calling someone in the country.

Even his relatives in the country don't know about his whereabouts.

Hold on.

If a hospital shuts down,

its records must be transferred to a local public health center.

- Young Goon. - Yes.

Find out if a local public health center has any records.

Of course.

Should I follow him?

You stay here.

Deputy Commissioner Park will be here for a negotiation.

I am sorry.

Sorry I am late. Should we leave now?

Sure.

Ji Hoon.

Can I ask...

why you took this case?

I've always wanted to take a criminal case.

Other than that?

I was just curious about...

why my thumb was cut off.

Do you want revenge?

Yes.

I want to take revenge.

I'll set Park Jin Wook free from the detention...

and find out who is behind,

and why they did it.

Don't you want to do that too?

I heard you went after the killer.

So help me, Tae Joo.

(Seyang Police Station)

Now we met as enemies, Lawyer Han.

Not enemies, just colleagues.

We are colleagues who are about to negotiate together.

I heard you wanted to know the members of Jang Society...

- from the ledger. - Yes.

I cannot disclose any information about a private police organization.

That's because we do not have trust between each other.

Instead,

I can tell you something else.

Like the money earned by distributing drugs.

Continue.

You first must transfer him to a solitary room with a flush toilet.

And a time to exercise twice a day.

Also, permission to have his blood pressure medication.

The drugs he takes are not yet allowed in Korea.

Understood. Continue.

You know the money was laundered through a redevelopment project.

This money...

was used for lobbying high-ranking public officials and politicians.

If you let Deputy Commissioner Park out of jail,

I'll hand over the names, prices, and location.

They're all yours.

Why did you offer to give me the bribery list?

The conditions weren't much either.

A flush toilet...

and being able to work out.

Right, your blood pressure medication...

and no physical detention.

You'll be in prison for a long time.

You were curious about Jang Society.

I'm just trying to show you that we're doing the right thing.

[VIU Ver] OCN E13 'WATCHER' "Appearance of Lawyer Yoon Ji Hoon" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

What is he saying?

The money that Jang Society has made through the drugs...

was given to high-ranking officials and politicians.

That way, they'll be able...

to trace the money and to whom it's given.

It'll be easy to monitor the underground economy.

They're saying that their motive is just,

so the means does not matter.

Drugs are everywhere,

and they could reveal the corrupt high-ranking officials,

so they're not ashamed.

Does that mean...

he'll be released if he hands over the information you need?

The police and the prosecution are always like that.

Not this time.

I'm going to make him pay for what he did.

So there's nothing for you to worry about.

Also...

Here.

Lawyer Yoon said this is blood pressure medication.

Analyze them.

Why?

We need to be suspicious of everything.

(Public Health Center)

We don't have the medical records.

Then who has it?

There are many hospitals that go under.

We can't keep all of them.

So we ask them to sign the Storage Agreement...

and allow them to keep them.

Do you know who has them?

Hold on.

(Happiness Clinic)

(Medical Record Storage Agreement)

It's Yoon Ji Hoon.

- Who? - He's a lawyer.

Do you need his number?

No, I know him.

You know Happiness Clinic, don't you?

I heard you have their medical records.

Yes, I'm keeping them for the doctor.

May I see them?

Please bring a search and seizure warrant.

I'm sure you've seen the records too.

The one who did that to you.

Don't you know that he was a patient there?

I do.

- Do you wish to see them? - Yes.

Why did that hospital close down?

The doctor wanted to rest, so I helped him do so.

I'd like to see the records.

Please come to my office.

They're all there.

(Lawyer, Han Tae Joo)

Do you want revenge?

Yes.

I do.

- Jae Sik, get the car ready. - Yes, ma'am.

Mr. Do, we need to meet right now.

Is this where your office is?

I work alone anyway.

It's temporary.

They're over there. Feel free to look through them.

Didn't you ask me about humanity before?

I did.

Humans are full of emotions.

Fear, shame, hatred,

sadness,

fury, surprisal, jealousy, sympathy,

and happiness.

But animals only have the basic emotions.

Have you ever witnessed the death of your pet dog or cat?

No, our family didn't have much money growing up.

An animal doesn't sympathize with itself.

Only humans do that.

Humans are the only beings with various emotions.

But other than happiness, everything else is negative.

Life is full of sorrows anyway.

(Kim Gang Wook)

(Kim Gang Wook)

There's nothing on Kim Gang Wook or Park Chan Hee.

A human is bound to crumble...

if they hide or show too many emotions.

They're actually very fragile.

And which one are you?

I tend to hide my emotions.

So where are the records?

Mr. Kim, I'm afraid you'll disturb us.

- So please stay here. - What will you do?

I need to speak with Deputy Commissioner Park.

Hey.

Don't underestimate me for being alone.

I've not really fought to live my entire life.

But not anymore.

You can hit me first.

Gosh, you're the chatty type. You little punk.

Why are you just standing?

The medical records.

I don't enjoy being threatened.

I almost died in a similar situation.

I don't enjoy being ignored either.

Look at that. You're an addict.

It makes me stronger.

It rids me of fear and sympathy.

Hold on. It was somewhere here.

The blade is covered with a substance, Mr. Kim!

(Seyang Police Station)

Yoon Ji Hoon is planning to free Deputy Commissioner Park...

and take his revenge.

Is that what he said?

He asked me to help him take revenge.

Why are you telling me this?

I thought you felt guilty towards Ji Hoon...

and despised Deputy Commissioner Park.

I don't want to see him stoop so low.

And Deputy Commissioner Park's death won't put an end to this.

Please take care of it as discreetly as possible.

I will.

(Seyang Police Station)

Commissioner Yeom, I didn't expect to see you here.

Let's call it even regarding the negotiation.

The higher-ups are against it, and there's nothing I can do.

They don't think the information acquired...

through negotiating with the victim is credible.

You can talk more in detail with Mr. Do.

Mr. Do, the higher-ups are just afraid...

of the bribery ledger's getting exposed.

Yes. That's probably right.

Isn't it the duty of the Corruption Investigation Team...

to continue investigating at times like this?

You hurt your face.

Yes, I got into a fight.

To be honest,

you're suspicious.

Well... To be frank,

I want to take revenge on Deputy Commissioner Park.

If you let him free, I'll take care of him...

and make him spill everything you want to know.

If the outcome is favorable,

the means don't matter.

I don't trust you.

Your face and the expressions you make...

all seem fake.

You suddenly appeared well-prepared...

and want to take your revenge?

You've postponed your revenge...

for the past seven years.

We're looking into what you've done...

in the US.

We're also looking into what you did after flying in.

Was it Tae Joo?

If there's someone who's worried about you,

it would be her.

Ms. Jo, where is Young Goon?

He didn't clock in yet.

Keep calling him until he picks up.

The negotiation has been broken.

Deputy Commissioner Park won't be able to leave.

Does Ji Hoon know about this?

Yes, I just told him.

He thinks you're behind this,

so you should talk to him.

By the way, is Young Goon there?

Wait a minute.

Tae Joo, I'm here.

Go.

Do Chi Gwang.

Do Chi Gwang, how dare you look at me that way?

That scumbag.

Don't you know why I'm in pain?

You piece of garbage. Darn it.

Don't you know why my thumbs were cut off?

Darn it.

(Yoon Ji Hoon)

(Yoon Ji Hoon)

The number you have called cannot be reached.

Please leave a message after the beep.

(Money Lover: Yoon Ji Hoon, serious case of drug addiction)

(Highly likely to still be addicted. The current office is fake.)

(Mr. Do)

Tae Joo, what are you doing?

Yoon Ji Hoon is crazy.

Ms. Jo, send police to Han Tae Joo's office.

Hurry!

(Lawyer Han Tae Joo)

Both Han Tae Joo and Young Goon's phones are off.

(Unknown Number)

(Unknown Number)

Mr. Do,

you should let Deputy Commissioner Park out of jail by today.

How?

We found drugs in his car.

He just fell into a trap...

during his investigation into a drug distribution case.

You can say the evidence is gone...

or a new piece of evidence appeared.

There are many ways.

- Let him out. - That is not an option.

How unfortunate.

(Unknown Number)

Mr. Do!

Did you change your mind?

Forget it.

You are one crazy man.

If you hurt them, there will be no negotiation.

I'll look into it. Wait until tomorrow morning.

Three hours. I won't negotiate afterward.

- Ms. Jo. - Yes.

Find out where Yoon Ji Hoon called...

and the location where...

Young Goon and Lawyer Han's phones were turned off.

You two move together.

- What about you? - I'll speak with Park Ji Woo.

He must know something about this case.

Anything from the blood pressure medication?

It's fine. They are just blood pressure medication.

Got it.

Let's go.

I didn't know you had blood pressure issues.

You will have one too.

Does this mean I will be out of jail today?

You already know everything.

Did you plan this with Yoon Ji Hoon?

If you want to save Kim Young Goon and Han Tae Joo,

you must let me go.

So?

You can manipulate evidence again...

to argue that the drugs are gone? How does that sound?

Or...

after a re-investigation, it turned out that they weren't drugs?

I dug up on Yoon Ji Hoon.

He is known for taking care of dirty businesses...

between Mexico and the US.

Yes, apparently he does anything for money.

He found his calling after his thumbs were cut off.

Goodness.

You believe him?

I don't care.

You are in trouble.

Are you going to give up on me to save their lives?

Or are you going to keep me here by sacrificing them?

What is the justice that you want?

Goodness, you talk about that justice again.

None of the above.

I was always curious.

What choice will you make this time?

Don't worry.

We still have time until the agreed time is over.

This place feels a little uncomfortable.

Jin Woo!

Jin Woo!

Are you okay?

If you take so much in the beginning,

it could damage your central nerve and even cause a possible death.

Do you want to know what this is?

There were some leftovers from drugs...

we confiscated from your trunk.

I mixed those with your blood pressure medication...

for your sake.

Why?

Am I going to get punished for giving you some drugs?

No. No need to worry.

The story will say that Yoon Ji Hoon gave it to you.

Along with the order from Jang Society to remove you,

he added that personal revenge of his.

This was all that monster's idea.

What a monster.

Jin Woo.

Do you remember how you told me Jang Society prevents big crimes...

with small sacrifices?

I really...

loved your story.

"They prevent big crimes..."

"with small sacrifices!"

But that is only when you are not the small sacrifice.

Imagine you are that sacrifice.

You will need to fight until the end.

Jin Woo.

Do you think I am correct now that you are the sacrifice?

I really want...

to ask you about one thing.

It's about Young Goon's mother.

Who killed her?

You.

Hey.

(WATCHER)

Are you afraid...

to recall what happened that day?

I don't know what it will be in the end, but I want to be there.

The higher-ups are not very happy about this investigation.

It was important enough to turn away from the guilt of life.

The murderer of your mother? You saw Turtle.

Do you really not remember?
