If Jeong Jinman is actually here…

then I'll gouge out my other eye.

Whether he's here or not, we stay the course of action.

That's the reason we lost him in the first place.

This is where you holed up and lived the good life, is that it?

You sly dog.

I would bet that Jinman…

is watching us from somewhere out there.

Secret passage found in the bathroom.

There's a secret passage.

Pull out now!

It's bulletproof. It won't break at this range.

Let's pull back.

A SHOP FOR KILLERS 2

EPISODE 02 RECLUSE

1 YEAR LATER

You can blame me for all of it.

I couldn't lose you too, Jian.

That's why the shop was created. To protect you.

You know, I knew you weren't ordinary, Uncle.

But isn't this insane?

You're saying to protect me,

you took money and sold guns to mercenaries and assassins.

You're an arms dealer, right?

That means the weapons that you sell to those people…

are used to kill, aren't they?

Mm-hmm.

This is my world, Jeong Jian.

Where you have to kill if you wanna stay alive.

I did the best I could to keep you out of danger…

but it found you anyway, and that's my fault.

I don't need an apology anymore.

-Take care of yourself, Jeong Jinman. -Listen up, Jeong Jian.

Whatever happens, the safest place for you is with me.

Uncle, I don't want anything to do with this world.

You may not wanna hear this, but…

-you're already in it. -But that can change.

I thought you died and now you're sitting here.

None of this has anything to do with me.

You said so yourself.

Whatever I decide to do, it's my choice, right?

These are yours.

Jeong Jian, from now on, you have to make it on your own.

SOCIAL SECURITY CARD LEE ARIN

One day…

in the future, when everything is settled…

and I can return to a normal life…

I'll come back.

Jeong Jian.

Here, just in case, you should take this.

If anything happens, u-use it to contact me.

And this, this is for… security. It should help.

And also this bag here, just…

Once you get somewhere safe, open it when you're alone.

-Hey… -Hm?

If you and my uncle install cameras and bug my place, you're dead.

Okay, okay. I swear. I won't do that, I… I swear.

Take care.

Jeong Jian, you too.

You gonna keep running under the moon every night? Huh?

Will you look at that,

our little Jian's pretending she can't hear me, but she does.

Thanks to a certain someone,

I've got an itch on my neck that I can't seem to scratch.

Can you help me?

Come get your tofu! Fresh chilies!

Tasty garlic!

Get some tomatoes. Cherry tomatoes.

Green onions. Green onions here!

Hey, come on, what are you checking inside the bag for, huh?

I'm hardly making squat.

Come here for a sec.

Look, Grandma Pilsun ordered shiitakes, right?

So why'd you get oyster mushrooms then, huh?

Ah, Woojin, shiitake or oyster, it's all the same.

These are actually better for you.

And shiitakes are so expensive now.

What's price got to do with it? You think Hanam-do folk can't pay?

Last time you pulled this, those grandmas kicked ass hard.

You wanna go through that again?

Keep this up and your store will stop getting business here.

Ah, Woojin, Woojin! Hey, why are you doing this, man?

We've known each other for a while now, right?

Hey, are you lonely? You want me to set you up? Huh?

Stop speaking nonsense.

I mean, he's just sitting around, waiting for who knows what.

What's there for him to do besides eat three meals and sleep?

Arin, are you in some kind of a rush? You know you can slow down a little.

-Hey, Arin! -Yes?

We're hourly, girl. Hourly, yeah?

All of us are paid by the hour.

We have to take it slow, so we can make more money.

You can't rush everything on your own.

Right.

I can't tell if this girl's not listening

or just doesn't understand what I'm saying.

All right, that's enough.

I think I'm all finished here.

Please take your time. I'll be going now.

What? What did I say?

She walks off like that, then I'm the bad guy here, is that it?

Has it already been a year since that girl got here?

It hasn't been a year yet.

It's just that I don't get along with her, I really can't.

And when I try to start a conversation, she barely says a word.

That girl! I don't like anything about her.

Is she still running in the middle of the night like a bat out of hell?

-That's what I heard. -Come on, ladies, let it go.

- Oh, my sonny's here. - How many times I gotta say it?

How's it going?

Ladies, listen, we have to include Ms. Arin

because that makes 30 of us.

We're getting federal support.

They'll stop the payments to everyone if she leaves us now.

And young folks these days expect to be treated with a little respect, yeah?

It's just that we're trying really hard with her every day.

And why are you being mean to us for?

She's the one with the nasty attitude, isn't she?

Oh, my gosh. I can't understand why you're taking her side.

Why do you think? Woojin isn't a little boy anymore.

He's gotta start thinking about marriage.

God!

Hey, quit trying to set us up like that.

I've got my hands full taking care of you all.

I mean, marriage is the furthest thing I can think of.

Well, you should.

-Hey, um, Mrs. Pilsun. Uh… -Huh?

They were out of shiitake, so they got oyster mushrooms.

You're kidding. What?

Shiitakes and oyster mushrooms are totally different.

That general-store fraud!

He gets low-quality junk and just… just pockets the cash, right?

Don't worry about it. It's handled. Yeah?

All right, ladies, I'll drop them off in front of the house, okay?

Take yours when you head home.

- Yeah. Thank you. - Okay, sounds good.

Meongejeon? Still got some left. I appreciate it, though.

-Thank you. -It's not meant for you.

Take it and give it to Arin.

I was actually thinking of giving it to her later today,

but the damn girl just took off like that.

When you go to see her,

you should give it to her real casually and say, "Wanna sit down and eat together?

Just you and me?"

Ah, forget it. Cut it out. Jeez!

I really can't do this, you ladies. I really can't!

You look homeless.

- I'll see you later. - Okay, Romeo!

Ms. Arin, would you like to have some of this?

That's not it.

Arin, Arin, I… I… I…

I was wondering, have you eaten yet?

Arin, I was just…

Are you there?

Ms. Arin?

You there, Ms. Arin?

Are you in there?

What is that?

What's going on here?

THE CONQUEROR OF ROME

Ms. Arin?

Are you home?

What was that?

Ms. Arin, are you okay?

Huh?

What is this? What are you doing here?

That's… Okay, what happened is that…

that Granny Jeomrye told me to take this to you.

Uh, c-could you just…?

I'm sorry about this.

I shouldn't be hopping the fence without asking.

Can I…

ask why it's…?

Never mind.

Right on my ass.

DIRECTOR LEE YONGHAN MADE CONTACT?

- Are you Attorney Jang Inseop? - Who's asking?

- I'll take that. - No, it's fine.

-I'll take it, it's for me. -Sir.

Go ahead. This is Jang Inseop.

This is Jeong Jinman.

Yeah.

I heard you were a man of his word,

that's why I'm confused you're not here at our meeting.

I think we both know you went back on your word first.

Is that right?

I don't understand what you mean. I've been here since 2:30.

Check your phone.

KIM CHANWOO AFFILIATION: BABYLON, MERCENARY TEAM 1

PARK CHEOLMIN AFFILIATION: BABYLON, MERCENARY TEAM 1

JEONG HYEONSOO AFFILIATION: BABYLON, MERCENARY TEAM 1

Yes.

Yeah, I understand what you're saying.

However, as you know, our employees' information is classified.

It seems that you've breached our servers.

That's a whole other negotiation, I'm afraid.

CONFIDENTIAL

ASSASSINATION OPERATION OF APPOINTED PRIME MINISTER OF CAMBODIA

Uh…

Yes, I'm understanding exactly what you're…

What you're implying with this message.

Once I'm convinced that Babylon is genuinely willing to negotiate with me,

I'll contact you again.

We're done. Let's head back.

How do you think he found out?

If I knew that, you think I would've been flustered?

Wait a second.

Uh…

-I was gonna get the car washed. -Sir?

You should probably take the bus back. It'll take a while.

No, that's fine, sir. I can go along and keep you company.

No, it's all right. Just go.

-It's really fine with me. -I said, just go on.

Right. I'll see you back there, sir.

Let's go.

Where… where do you…? I mean…

Weren't you going to the car wash?

I didn't know agents would be there. I swear. I wasn't briefed on it. Honestly.

Yes, I'm aware. I already know who ordered it.

Even so, you shouldn't have breached our server.

That was the only way I could have handled this negotiation here.

So, all right, why don't you just tell me what you want.

My conditions are simple.

A permanent ceasefire.

Going forward, Jeong Jian, as well as anyone I've ever associated with,

will now be off-limits.

If they honor this,

the contents of the server will never see the light of day.

Once I'm convinced that Babylon will keep their end of the deal…

I will return the server.

However, if anyone so much as touches a hair on my niece's head,

or if she gets even the tiniest scratch,

Babylon's true nature will be exposed to the world.

If I find any suspicious men lurking around my niece,

or if her phone just happens to stop working for whatever reason,

Babylon's true nature will be made public.

These are my non-negotiables.

That seems straightforward,

but I don't know if negotiations will be possible.

I'll make the first move to open the conversation.

How exactly?

First, I will convert Murthehelp to an indefinite shutdown state.

I will halt all transactions and activities

between the codes immediately.

I'll be watching.

Congratulations to you and your wife on your 15-month-old child,

Legal Team Attorney Jang Inseop.

DEPART ON SIGNAL

Wait, that's…

Then, for now…

Jinman didn't say anything else?

No, he just stated his terms and disappeared quietly.

It feels like he's got Babylon right where he wants it.

What should we do? Is Jinman still an active target?

…orders were to… What are you doing here?

Get the hell out of here.

What are you saying?

I said, move it!

This doesn't concern you. Move.

Step aside. Step aside now!

What's going on here?

We haven't met before, have we?

I am Kusanagi Jin.

Regional Head of Babylon East Asia.

Despite the name, I'm Korean.

But I never really lived here.

Okay.

IDENTITY CHECKLIST FOR IMMIGRATION OFFICERS

Um… Uh…

-What time do you finish? -In five hours.

We will finish after and… after five hours, we go out.

Five hours afterwards come back. You understand?

-Okay, yeah. Yeah. -Okay?

-Move, move. Move. -Okay.

Hey.

Yes.

I'll take full responsibility and step down.

However…

before I resign…

I would like to be the one to finish it.

Jeong Jinman served under me for ten years.

Not a single soul knows Jeong Jinman better than I do.

Please let me be the one--

I believe I have already given you more than a year

to wrap this mess up.

Am I wrong?

It's been a year since Babylon's had a functioning Korean branch.

We haven't been able to deploy any covert operations,

officials are hesitant to use us,

and as a result, revenue has been cut in half.

No matter what Jeong Jinman's notoriety is within our circles,

the rumor that Babylon was taken down by a single ex-mercenary…

Let's just say our credibility's damaged.

If that wasn't enough,

Babylon's top secret intel could get leaked at any time, right?

We gave you an entire year to clean this matter up and you couldn't.

That tells me everything I need to know.

The decision's already been made.

You're released of your duties here.

Babylon's no longer your home.

What are you doing here? Turn around. I said, turn arou--

Hey! What the hell are you--

You're in someone else's country. Don't you have any manners?

This damn country…

gets emotional about everything.

Say hello, Bale. She's your direct superior.

What are you doing?

Weren't you gonna get Jinman?

And what are they doing here?

And you are…

Bale?

Orders from above are to capture Jeong Jinman.

That's what I'm doing here.

BABYLON DIRECTOR LEE YONGHAN

SON

- Ah. Hey. - Grandpa!

There you are. How's my little guy, huh?

I was telling him how I wanted to hear your voice.

Grandpa, when are we

gonna play catch?

You need to brush your teeth and get ready for bed.

All right, Sanggyu.

- Yeah? - It's so late.

- No fair! - Put him to bed already.

- Right. - You made a promise.

Hey, kid. That's what moms are like, all right?

I already told her we had a lot of kimchi left.

But she won't have it, she insists on bringing some by.

I know it's harder for her to make the trip these days.

I just worry about her, that's all.

Are you there?

Listen, son, quit your complaining.

Treat your mom well while she's around.

That goes for your wife and my grandson too.

Dad, is everything all right?

Of course, everything's fine.

See you.

The address is Yuseong-gu…

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight…

What the hell? We're missing a guy.

Huh?

Hey!

Look. We're… There's a person missing.

- Where is he, huh? - That guy,

earlier, he said he's going to toilet.

-Maybe he shit. -Hey!

That's no excuse. Know what?

-You better find him quickly and-- -Sorry, sorry, sorry. Uh…

Toilet. Uh…

Diarrhea.

Korean food is too spicy.

Mission successful.

Okay, job well done.

Take some time off until your next mission.

I miss you. You liking Korea?

Not at all.

The office interior is tacky as hell.

I need to relocate.

Okay. I'll let you get back to it.

Mm-hmm.

MURTHEHELP - THIS WEBSITE IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION.

Hey, Arin!

Oh. Hi, aunties.

-Are you going? -Going where?

What do you mean?

Once a month, folks from the island head to the mainland to have a feast together.

You didn't know?

Ah…

We eat some tasty food, sing songs together, play some games.

- Come with us. - Jeez, why would youngsters

wanna hang around with a bunch of old folks?

What are your plans for the day?

My phone broke, so I was heading to Sacheon for a new one.

Hi, ladies.

Ooh!

Together?

Hey, while we're out, have sonny here show you a good time.

Come on. Hey, come on!

Nothing more than hand-holding.

It's your… first time off the island, isn't it?

Since you moved to Hanam-do, right?

Yes.

Uh, you should know,

the Sacheon boat over there comes and goes whenever it seemingly wants to.

It'll stay put right there if there's no waves at all,

not to mention their schedule.

Hm.

Uh, if the ship doesn't go out or you don't get on board, give me a call.

I can take my boat out there.

Uh…

That's just what everyone around here does already.

It's totally fine, so please feel free to call if you want.

Oh.

-That's-- -I appreciate it.

Wait! My number's really easy. Here.

0070-1004.

007. Bang! 1004. You can remember it like that.

Yeah. Really appreciate it.

-I better get on the boat now, so… -Yeah.

Safe travels.

You idiot.

PHONES FOR ALL

BUS

THAI SPECIALTY RESTAURANT

Welcome.

One pad thai, please.

Of course. This way, please.

Jian, you're here 'cause you thought of Pasin, huh?

Yeah.

Oh.

Should've taken a hatchet to his fucking neck.

- Hi, how have you been? - Welcome.

Who are you? Why are you following me?

You left your cell phone in there.

You've been following me since the bus.

I was gonna eat there. My friend owns that restaurant.

Do you recall what I said that night?

That I want to recruit you, that I want to bring you on.

Wow…

You take after your uncle.

You're a born warrior. Warrior.

Fuck off.

What?

Are you saying there's no more rides back to Hanam-do today?

Sorry, they've all been canceled.

These ferries can't go out in this weather.

What are you doing when you get off? Have any plans?

No, I don't.

- Going straight home? - I really should.

Uh, if the ship doesn't go out or you don't get onboard, give me a call.

My number's really easy. Here.

WOOJIN

Have you had dinner?

What?

Have you had dinner yet?

I haven't. Not yet.

Here, eat this. You'll get sick on an empty stomach.

That right there is a Sacheon local delicacy.

It even appeared on YouTube.

It's really amazing.

Thank you so much.

Have it with this, it's killer.

Are you gonna ask me about it?

What?

Why I had all that stuff in my yard.

I mean, I would've asked if I were you.

Oh. Oh, that?

Well, everyone's got their own circumstances in life, right?

I figured it really wasn't my business. I don't want to overcomplicate things.

Anyhow, the aunties, they don't mean anything by it either.

They're just trying to get close to you in their own way,

so don't let them get to you.

This is the Coast Guard!

We're conducting a contraband inspection. Please cooperate.

That you, Woojin?

Stop the boat. Let me take a quick look.

Yes, I understand.

Shit. What do I do?

Hey, Arin. One second.

-Could you hold this for a minute, please? -What?

Shit.

Shit. Shit.

MURTHEHELP WHEN CAN THE PACKAGE BE RECEIVED?

A SHOP FOR KILLERS 2

Why is it taking so long?

Look, among all of these classified servers, there's only three real ones.

No, I get that, but you said you're the one who made this.

Hey, it's not like I created the fake ones and put them in there, all right?

Your Kim II Sung University degree really ain't worth shit, is it?

Sir, sir, sir, Jinman! Sir, sir, sir.

Here, here, here, quick, quick, quick.

What is it?
