Detective Jin, did you think the game was over?

Round 2.

Detective Jin, you got lucky.

For now, I think we should move Detective Jin to a safe house.

Put Team 1 with him. You can trust them.

It's a box I've never seen before.

-What? -It's a bomb!

What's going on?

There's a bomb in the car. Blast radius is 50... No, 100 meters.

Take the wheel.

Four minutes left.

I know a place.

There are people here. Be careful.

-Detective Park, stop!

-Nine seconds. -Open the door.

-What? -Open the door!

Three, two, one!

Bro!

-Are you okay? -Yeah.

That was way too close.

Are you all right?

Yes.

We need a different location. I don't know how far ahead they planned.

Get Detective Jin out of here before backup arrives.

Understood.

You're okay, right?

Yes.

Violent Crimes' car exploded?

-Yes, sir.

You mean, the bomber came to the police station

and planted a bomb in our car?

-This is a nightmare.

What are we going to do?

The press is waiting.

So what?

-You handle it. -Sir.

Don't look at me. Go out there and deal with it!

I can't believe this.

Can you tell us what happened?

We heard a police vehicle had exploded.

Was Detective Jin Isoo inside?

Any casualties?

- Did you catch them? -Who's behind this?

There are no casualties.

We'll place this case under embargo until the investigation is complete.

Embargo?

We've already had two large-scale explosions.

We don't know what the culprit is after.

We can't risk provoking them.

Please cooperate.

Where are we?

The safest place we have right now.

Let's go inside.

What's with the decor here? Huh?

-Is this Joo Hyera's place? -Yeah.

The bomber would never expect it.

Yeah.

I didn't expect it either. I'm going to a hotel.

Hey, come on. Why?

Because she embarrassed me on national TV,

and she keeps bossing me around like she's our team leader.

Hey, Jin Isoo.

She offered up her home to keep you safe. Stop being so petty.

He's right. You should rest.

You've had a really stressful day.

Where's the bedroom?

It's this way. Come on, bro.

God, we need a team leader.

This way, bro.

That evil woman likes cute things like this?

Why're you lying on the floor?

I don't sleep in other people's beds.

Go. I'm going to sleep.

Night, bro.

What about Isoo?

He went to sleep.

Okay. Good job today.

You go back to the station. I'll stay here.

Got it.

Hello? Jiwon, sorry--

What happened? Are you okay? Where are you?

Uh, Jiwon.

Calm down. One question at a time.

How can I be calm? A car exploded at the Hangang River.

Isoo's unharmed.

-We're now at a safe house, so-- -And you?

What?

Are you okay?

I was really worried.

Yes, I'm completely fine.

Do you know how scared I was?

Who on earth would do something like this?

Exactly.

This is the third incident now. I'm sure we'll find some evidence.

I need Team 2 to go over the footage from the launch event again.

Let me know if you see any suspicious movements.

Okay. Come on.

- Okay. - Okay.

Let's check the parking lot security footage.

Got it.

Final Round.

Come alone. He'll blow up if I see anyone else.

You know where this is.

The number you have dialed...

Did you find anything?

No.

No one approached the vehicle.

Then how did they put the bomb in there?

When was the vehicle last used?

Three days ago.

Let's check the nearby dashcams in the morning.

Okay.

By the way,

what about Park Gyeongtae?

We've been watching him, but he never left his house.

My team will retrieve the vehicle tomorrow.

-Go get some shut-eye. -Okay.

Yes, sir. Sorry for disturbing you so early.

I couldn't reach you yesterday.

You parked in front of a Violent Crimes vehicle.

I need to check your dashcam footage.

Yes, please call me when you arrive. I'll come up to get it.

-I'll contact the rest of the list. -Okay.

Sorry, I left on my own.

Even if I end up dead,

you guys are not at fault.

Park Junyoung, Choi Kyungjin...

Thanks for everything.

-Here you go. -Thank you.

-Good luck. -Thanks.

Hey, here you go.

-Thank you. -Take care.

Yes, sir.

The number you have dialed...

Isoo.

Hello?

What?

Understood.

-What's wrong? -Isoo disappeared.

-Did he take Detective Park's car? -I think so.

-I'll head out now. You track him down. -Got it.

There he is. Please track license plate 9832.

Got it.

- Ma'am. -Yes, where's Detective Jin?

Near his family estate. The address is 251 Pyeongjin-dong.

I'll head over there, so keep me updated.

-And let Detective Park know, too. -Yes, ma'am.

What are you doing here?

I got a DM.

I was told to come here and film you die.

It's my mom.

Head inside together.

We're being watched.

Let's go inside.

Mr. Choi!

Turn on the camera.

Unless you want to see your mom die.

Turn around.

Detective! Detective Jin!

Over here.

There's a bomb in the car. Blast radius is 50... No, 100 meters.

Follow me.

There's a bunker here.

-Hello?

He's at Jin Myeongchul's house.

I think Jin Isoo has been set up.

Please alert local police and emergency services.

I will.

-Be careful. -Yes, sir.

It should've gone off by now.

That bastard was bluffing.

Detective!

Detective Jin!

Jin Isoo, where are you?

Over here.

Are you okay? What happened?

Why is the Assistant Director here?

It's a long story. Let's get out of here first.

Hey.

You okay?

You asshole!

You...

If something had happened to you...

I didn't have a choice. Let's get out of here first.

It was because of this.

But he wasn't here?

No.

Then what could've happened?

Was he taken somewhere else?

Maybe the photo was just a bait.

The photo was definitely taken here.

Chairman Choi is here.

- Mr. Choi. -Yes.

Are you all right?

Did you get hurt?

What about you?

Where were you?

I was traveling by helicopter.

Then how did you know to come here?

You didn't answer when I called you back, so I contacted Detective Choi.

You should call your mother.

Hello? Mom, where are you? Why didn't you answer your phone?

At the sauna?

God, Mom! I really can't with you.

-I'm hanging up.

So this was just a deepfake.

Then why bomb this place? Using a fake photo, no less.

To kill me.

We should go. It's too dangerous.

Wait.

You said the bomber's watching.

The unexploded bomb was defused on site, and it's currently being analyzed.

Jang Hyeonwoo is hiding out at a nearby motel.

And I've relocated Detective Jin.

Where?

I haven't been over in so long.

Go wash up. I'll make you something to eat.

In a minute.

Quickly, come on.

There you go.

This house seems too small for the chairman of the Hansu Group.

Do you want a bigger place?

I like it here.

And I like you, Mr. Choi.

Have a seat.

Are you unwell?

No, it's just a little indigestion.

Did you get it checked out?

I will.

Go on.

I haven't had porridge in a while.

Mmm.

- How is it? -It's seasoned perfectly.

-Just as I expected.

Mmm. Mmm.

We got a partial print.

Submit it for expedited analysis.

It's really urgent.

-Did they find something? - Yes.

A partial print. It'll take a while.

Four bomb attacks, but only one partial fingerprint.

We should've found something at the event site or the parking lot.

Anything on the security footage?

We checked all the parking lot cameras and dashcams.

Everything up to two days before the incident.

It wasn't here.

No one's bold enough to plant a bomb at a police station.

-You went to the first site in that car? -Yes.

They lured you there to plant the bomb.

I'll get their security footage.

Who could be behind all this?

Yeah, who could it be?

Who would want me...

Don't touch that!

Come alone. He'll blow up if I see anyone else.

- What's wrong? -Detective!

-Drink this.

Are you all right?

Yeah.

I just...

couldn't breathe for a second.

You should go to the hospital.

If you go first.

I'm fine.

I really don't know who it could be.

But why make it so complicated?

Planting bombs at four locations and even using a deepfake?

Why not just plant it at your house?

It probably isn't revenge.

The Isoo I know

would never make someone want revenge this badly.

It might be

driven by desire.

Mr. Choi.

You know my dad's house.

Do you remember it had a bunker?

Yes, of course.

The bomb went off in there, which is how I survived.

But it blew a hole in the floor.

I got the footage from Hansu Department Store.

We won't be able to see anything.

We got a match on the fingerprint.

Jang Hyeonsuk. No criminal record. He works in R&D at Mirae Electronics.

-Should we go bring him in? -Yes.

-Let's go. -Right.

The first bomb had a simple design.

Its target was Jin Isoo.

The second bomb...

It was used to prove they meant business.

The third bomb...

We need a different location. I don't know how far ahead they planned.

It sent Jin Isoo to a safe house and isolated him.

The fourth bomb...

It finally tried to kill Jin Isoo,

but failed because there was a bunker in the house?

No, that's not it.

There were three explosions. How could there be no casualties?

The bomber wasn't trying to kill Jin Isoo.

Do you seriously only own suits?

I even go hiking in a suit.

God, you're so buttoned-up.

It's my fashion philosophy.

By the way, where are you going?

I think I know what the bombers are after.

It could be dangerous.

That looks even more dangerous.

This is great!

It's unique.

They weren't trying to kill me.

It was all a ruse.

I'll go catch them.

-Hello?

Yes, Director. This is Joo Hyera.

Whose idea was it to do a feature on Detective Jin Isoo?

It was Assistant Director Jang Hyeonwoo.

He said he's a fan of Detective Jin.

Right. Okay.

-That was random.

Hello, this is Joo Hyera.

Could you check if Jang Hyeonwoo is inside his room?

Yes, right away.

He used the van to block him from view.

Jang Hyeonwoo.

Jang Hyeonsuk.

Hello?

Jang Hyeonwoo's not here.

Detective Park.

We can't locate Jang Hyeonsuk. He hasn't shown up for work either.

-Meet me at Jin Myeongchul's house. - Got it.

Let's go.

Joo Hyera?

What's with the badass look?

It's for mobility.

And you? Are you Indiana Jones?

Too bad I don't have a whip.

-What made you come here?

I just couldn't figure out how they planted the bomb inside the house.

Unless the Assistant Director brought it in.

I can do this.

I can do it.

I can do it.

Detective! Detective Jin!

What about you? How did you know?

We got a fingerprint off the bomb by the entrance.

It's Jang Hyeonwoo's brother.

They used to live at this address. And their mother died five years ago.

Oh...

-You're actually pretty sharp.

Their target was the bunker, right?

Yes.

The whole thing was a setup to blow up that place.

Because I'm the only one who can open it.

- There's a bunker here.

-Mr. Choi told me

that an extremely wealthy family used to live here.

When their business went under, they sold the house to my dad 30 years ago,

but for the last two years or so,

that family kept trying to buy the house back.

What's in this house?

Good question. Shall we go find out?

Hey, I'll grab that end. Move.

Looks like they're already here.

Okay, lift on three.

Hey, I'll grab that end. Move.

-Lift. One, two, three.

-Hyeonsuk! -Properly.

I told you to bring a dolly.

-Okay, okay. -It's so heavy.

Think this is gold? How much would it be worth?

Enough to live our dreams, of course.

I'm going to throw my resignation right in my manager's face.

You?

Me? I want fried chicken.

-Just chicken? Not even omakase? -So tasty.

-Tie it on nice and tight. -Okay.

I'll go up first and pull it up.

-Be careful. -Okay.

Give me a minute.

The police.

You came to arrest me.

Hyeonsuk, I got it!

I'll tie it up!

Be quiet.

Hyeonsuk, did you open it?

Come out.

Don't even think about running.

Where would you go anyway? Come here.

Good job.

I'm worn out from pulling that up,

so you can cuff yourself.

Thanks.

What could this be?

Put the cuffs on. It's okay.

What is it? Is it gold?

Or diamonds?

Do you want to know?

I'm not telling you.

Take them away.

Our dad died of cancer two years ago,

and he left one final instruction.

That house...

You and your brother

must get that house back.

In that place...

rests our family's

most valuable possession.

Just do as I say.

We didn't believe him.

But our relatives who came to the funeral said something different.

What happened to the treasure?

Treasure?

Father gave it to Hyeonwoo's grandfather, didn't he?

Yes.

That house.

Father gave it to him.

The house? The house I was born in?

We sold that house years ago.

That house has been sold.

Yes, it's been sold.

When you sold it,

didn't you take out the chest?

What chest?

The treasure chest.

Oh, come on. There's no treasure.

Unless you saw it yourself...

I saw it.

I saw Father bury the chest there.

You saw it too, didn't you?

I did.

In the dead of night,

he secretly buried that chest by the old well.

It must've been awfully valuable.

He said it should never be lost.

But then a house was built there.

Chairman Jin Myeongchul's house.

What was inside that chest?

Gold.

I told your dad when I went to visit him in the hospital.

Nonsense.

How many times do I have to tell you?

You two were imagining things.

Gold.

Even then, I didn't believe it. But...

Buy that house back, no matter the cost.

The chest is still there.

I need to get it before those brats catch on.

It was mine to begin with.

Jackpot.

So, that's why you tried to kill me?

We weren't trying to kill you.

Yeah. We worked so hard to make sure nobody got hurt.

We set them off when no one was around.

I almost died three times.

-That was all part of-- - Sorry.

Sorry.

But...

could you just tell us one thing?

What was inside the chest?

We'll serve time, however many years. So please.

Please tell us just that. Please?

Ah.

Gold.

How much was there?

Well, at today's gold prices,

around 100 billion won?

100 billion won?

-That belongs to us, right? -Of course, it does.

Of course.

You deserve it after all you've been through.

It should be a family heirloom.

Can't you show it to us? Just once?

We risked our lives for this.

Please.

It's ours anyway, so please let us see it just once.

Hmm.

You worked hard to find this treasure. You should at least get to see it.

All right.

-Wow. -We're rich now.

-Wow. -Wait, what is this?

Wait, hold on.

What?

What the...

Ready...

Action.

It was a treasure chest that they orchestrated four bombings to get.

What exactly was inside it?

The treasure they were so desperate to find

was none other than...

...a record of collaboration with Imperial Japan.

The bombers' great-grandfather was Jang Deuksu.

Also known as "The Master of Torture."

He arrested and tortured hundreds of independence activists

as a pro-Japanese police officer.

While working as an officer,

Jang Deuksu threatened landowners into handing over their deeds.

These are those very documents.

Jang Deuksu's sons, Kunkuk and Jongkuk,

sold these lands, amassed a fortune,

and went into postwar reconstruction, which made them extremely wealthy.

They believed their prosperity would last forever,

but then a troublemaker was born.

Jang Jongkuk's only son and the father of the bombers,

Jang Myungjun, failed at every business he tried.

Perhaps this is what they call justice prevailing.

But here's the thing.

Before Jang Myungjun died of cancer,

he told his sons to find the chest their grandfather had left behind.

The two fools who believed him

orchestrated the bombings to find this chest.

But what they uncovered...

was evidence

that their family collaborated with Imperial Japan during the occupation.

It is truly a fitting end for this collaborationist family.

I suppose another name will be added to the list of collaborators,

which I plan to publish.

This has been Jin Isoo,

a detective for the people.

That's me. That's me, all right.

A round of applause!

What do you think? Amazing, right?

Yes, amazing.

The comments are blowing up.

"Even busting collaborators, what can't he do?"

"Just how cool is he?"

Wow, amazing.

My God, just look at this.

-Let's get a beer. -Yes, sir.

This is insane!

-Look at this. -Yes, you're amazing.

-Look. - Come on. Let's go home.

Where are you going? Come on, admire me.

Bro, you're so cool. The best!

Hey, let's go grab a beer.

Sorry, I have a date.

-Hello? Babe? -Detective Park.

I have plans, too.

You don't have a girlfriend.

Shut up. See you.

Come on.

Jiwon.

Surprised?

Have you been waiting here for me?

Yes.

Come on, I found this great place to eat.

There's always a long wait. We should hurry.

-Weren't you cold? -I'm fine.

Up for a drink again tonight?

- Sure. - Great!

I knew it.

I'm so lonely.

I don't have anyone to share this afterglow with.

-Getting off work? -Yes.

Not sure if you saw the show,

but I gave it one heck of an ending.

I didn't see it. I was too busy.

Yes. Of course, you were.

Guess this is goodbye.

Happy?

My face gives me away every time.

Wishing you the best with the Counterterrorism Team. Good luck.

Right. You stay out of trouble, too. Take care.

Okay.

Joo.

Would you like something to drink?

You did a great job.

You too, sir.

Working with you again felt like old times.

-I could really count on you.

Me too.

What did you think of Jin Isoo?

He can be a bit odd,

and he's unpredictable,

but he's got good instincts.

And he's quite serious about the job.

Right?

He's actually a decent detective.

Do you have someone lined up to lead Team 1?

No.

No one.

So I was wondering...

Chief! Want to watch the show with me?

I saw it.

Jin Isoo, a detective for the people.

Oh. You're getting a new team leader on Monday.

-Tell your team not to be late. -Team leader?

-Who is it? -Curious?

You bet.

You'll see. I brought in a solid detective.

We're getting a new team leader?

How very interesting.

I suppose another name will be added to the list of collaborators,

which I plan to publish.

Apply now to receive yours for free.

This has been Jin Isoo,

a detective for the people.

That nutjob.

Put it on.

You didn't last time.

Your head's on backward. That's it.

Detective Park, wear it.

-Very handsome. Perfect.

Hello!

Hi there! Want a photo?

Okay. One, two, three.

He's going overboard again.

Come on, it's all good fun.

Ahh! Post it on social media.

Okay, band.

Let's give it a try.

Just like we practiced. Ready!

Stop!

What in the world...

What is all this?

Sir!

Oh, for heaven's sake.

Sir.

Come on, clear all this out.

-This was... -Sir!

Jin Isoo's doing.

It's for my new boss. You know the drill.

Oh.

-Somebody's working hard. - Of course.

We're getting a new team leader.

Of course.

-Like the flowers? -Yeah.

-Oh. Incoming! -Really? My new boss is here?

Okay, here we go.

Joo Hyera?

-I didn't expect such a grand welcome.

Detective Jin has been working hard since morning.

I guess you can be sweet.

This is the new team leader of Violent Crime Investigation Team 1, Joo Hyera.

She's got years on you boys.

She was on our Violent Crime Team before moving to Counterterrorism.

Detective Jin, take good care of your new boss.

Take good care of her.

Detective Jin Isoo,

Detective Park Junyoung, Detective Choi Kyungjin...

I'm glad to join the team.

This has to be a nightmare.

It's real.

Get used to it.

Looking forward to it, nutjob.

Special Cast. Kim Uiseong

What's the report about?

There's a ghost in the abandoned house.

It's asking us to catch the killer.

Of course I'm not scared.

There's definitely something in there.

You uncovered five bodies?

-I said wait for the warrant. -I bought the house!

A couple and their son, a college student, were all murdered.

So the house was abandoned after that, and then it was used as a burial site.

Police! Please come out, serial killer.

We need to start this case over.

- Help me! - So they're professional killers?

They're methodical and cold.

-There's something here. - Detective Joo.

Just stay close to me from now on.

The hero never dies that easily.

Meow.

Jin Isoo! Nutjob!

-Yes, ma'am! - We don't know who attacked us.

-Is there a fire? - No one's going to die.

Why are you being so dramatic?

There's a fire. The detectives went inside, but now it's on fire.

How do we get out?

-Hey, Jin Isoo. - I'm working on it!

Get out of the way.
