EPISODE 6

Hey, that's...

-It hasn't expired yet. -Oh, right.

That's not like you to make that mistake.

Did something happen with the CCTV?

Yesterday... I met Jeong Ho-myeong.

You mean... Jeong Ho-myeong? Oh, that guy...

But it's not just me. He knows all about you too, Gong-bok.

Jeong Ho-myeong... He said he knew me?

Yeah. But...

It's more than just knowing who we are.

We came to Yeongseon Island ten years ago, our whole purpose...

He knows us inside and out.

Listen, I...

-There's something I have to tell you. -Yeah?

What's good here?

Convenience store? Lunch boxes are good. This isn't a five-star restaurant.

What? There's a new one. Open it and shove it down your throat?

I didn't come for a lunch box. I'm here to talk.

You toss me out on the street, and now you want to talk?

It's not like we're best friends, is it?

So cut the crap and listen up.

I'm about to make you guys an offer you can't refuse.

I've decided to be generous...

and take you guys in.

What?

If you do as I say, I'll help you get your revenge.

What kind of bullshit is this?

You're the expert on bullshit.

President Jeong!

How did you know that?

Anyway, you must have realized you can't take on Yoo In-gu alone.

You found another way, Prosecutor Kang, who you tried to meet yesterday.

But since that fell through, you don't have any other options now.

What do you know to be running your mouth like that?

You think I'll team up with you?

You're not teaming up, you work under me. Let's get that straight.

And... I bet Gong-bok over there has other ideas.

What President Jeong said...

Maybe you should take some time to think about it?

Ma Gong-bok.

President Jeong, what can I do if you spring this on me?

You should've at least given me a heads-up.

I'm giving you one now.

Anyway, I've said my piece. The rest is up to you two.

The deadline is midnight tonight. If you're one minute late, the deal's off.

Choose wisely.

-Did you betray me? -Betray you?

Man, is that really all the faith you have in me?

You and President Jeong...

-You looked awfully chummy. -We're not close!

I was going to tell you. Recently, with President Jeong...

I got to know him tangled with Yoo In-gu. It just happened.

Yoo In-gu...

Didn't you say you'd put all that behind you?

And you? Can you really do that?

Being betrayed ten years ago,

and the humiliation from the other day... I...

I can't forget a single thing.

I still hear that bullshit when I'm trying to sleep.

You should've told me. That's what I'm here for.

And if I did?!

Honestly, do you really have the guts to give up this convenience store?

See?

This stupid convenience store...

You can't even let go of this, and you want to talk about revenge?

-Unbelievable. But that's still no reason -to team up with Jeong Ho-myeong!

And why not?

Instead of chasing Yoo In-gu and Han Gyeong-wook...

and wasting our lives away in this convenience store,

it's better to join Jeong Ho-myeong and do something.

Don't just say no. Be open-minded and really think about it.

Don't you remember getting beaten up when you took on Yoo In-gu alone?

-What did you say, bastard? -You're getting old.

-You can't do anything yourself anymore. -Are you saying I'm washed up?

That's not what I'm saying.

If you talk like that, just get out. Got it?

Go to your beloved Jeong Ho-myeong!

You're getting old. You can't do anything by yourself anymore.

FIFTIES PROFESSIONAL

Behind you!

-All right. -Yes.

-Hey, Yun-fat. -Yes.

Now that the Night Butterfly gang's son has seen your face,

it'll be tough to work as a waiter for a while.

Do you have somewhere else to go?

If you'll take me, I'd like to work for you.

Work for me?

Why?

I...

I want to be like you.

I appreciate your help today. But this is as far as we go.

Take this money

and go your own way.

This money... What am I supposed to do with this?

You want to be like me? And do what if you become like me?

Become a gangster? What is there besides fighting?

Don't have any illusions. Make a fresh start.

Chow Yun-fat!

After Chow Yun-fat,

you're the first Korean I've ever wanted to be like.

It's not that I have some fantasy about it.

No matter where you go,

i want to follow you and become just like you.

Please, take me in.

Prosecutor Kang, come with us. Get her!

Those bastards.

Okay, fine.

Let's see just how far you'll take this.

Yes, yes.

Our members wanted to see you.

-Members? -The guys from the shelter.

I'm sorry I didn't thank you sooner. Thank you so much for saving me.

We didn't do it to be thanked, but let us ask one thing.

Why were you in the ocean?

-Are you really a prosecutor? -Hey!

-Sorry. -I'm curious.

She has a prosecutor's ID in her pocket, but she told us not to file a report.

We need to know if this is going to be on the news.

I was investigating a violent crime.

I was caught in an accident during the investigation.

If my location is exposed now,

it would seriously jeopardize the investigation.

I know this is a huge favor to ask, but for just a few days,

could I please stay here in secret?

Of course. Of course.

Undercover, a sting operation... So that's what this is. I see.

I'm a cop, so I know.

-But will you be all right here? -Of course.

Bong Je-sun told me all about this place.

You help the victims who were robbed by Heaven Capital,

and those who have nowhere else to go.

You're all such wonderful people. Of course I can trust you.

Come on. We just helped some neighbors. No need to call us wonderful.

So, speaking of that.

I heard you've collected some data related to Heaven Capital,

and I was wondering if I could look through it while I'm here.

That Yoo In-gu... that bastard.

No, that's not it. Regarding Heaven Capital,

i want to see what illegal activities they've engaged in.

I think I could do some research into that.

You just got your memory back. Aren't you pushing yourself too hard?

What's there to worry about? You're here.

Stick to her side so the Prosecutor doesn't have to lift a finger.

But I was up all night yesterday.

No, it's fine. I just want to review the files by myself.

No, you can't. You can still barely move around.

-Je-sun can put in a little more work. -Yeah.

I was up all night...

TEMPORARILY CLOSED. WE'LL BE BACK BETTER. THANK YOU

-You think you can do it? -Sir?

Rebuilding the Mount Hua Sect after ten years.

Do you really think you can take down both the Ingu Gang and Han Gyeong-wook?

Boss.

After a ten-year break, I'm rusty too.

So if you're going to whine that you can't do anything,

i'll just leave you right here and now.

That will never happen, sir. I've waited ten long years for this day.

I will do my absolute best.

Tell me everything that happened with Yoo In-gu and Jeong Ho-myeong.

From now on, don't hide anything. And...

no matter what we do, we'll see it through.

Yes, Boss.

Also. Ma Gong-bok, you were right.

I'm getting old too.

I don't think that's what I meant.

No, it's true. I can't take on the Ingu Gang by myself.

Contact Jeong Ho-myeong and tell him. I want to see him immediately.

Yes, sir.

President Yu. You look happy. You're looking good.

-So, did everything work out? -I took care of it nice and clean.

Really? So fast, President Yu.

So what method did you use? Let me in on your secret.

It's a secret you couldn't even imitate, so don't be a smart-ass.

Just watch your mouth in front of Deputy Chief Han. Got it?

Okay, got it.

Looking at approval ratings for the next mayor of Imcheon,

ind. Kim Seonjoong and fmr. congressman Han Gyeong-wook...

-I'm here. -are in a tight two-way race.

What are you doing?

-With a 2% gap within the margin of error. -Watching TV, I see.

Candidate Kim Seonjoong's strength is his long-standing roots in Imcheon,

and his established image as an incorruptible educator.

As he emerges as a rival to Candidate Han Gyeong-wook in conservative Imcheon,

his approval ratings have recently risen sharply...

You're keeping a very close eye on the news.

Why watch this? It's just pointless chatter anyway.

Pointless chatter?

No matter how much they blabber on, for our Yeongseon Island project,

you're the one who needs to get elected, Deputy Chief Han.

Chairman Do, what do you think?

I have no doubt you'll be elected, Deputy Chief Han, but...

that kind of bad news...

Ah, I'm sorry. I just think...

it's best to nip these bad rumors in the bud.

Finally, someone who makes sense.

Nipping things in the bud is my specialty, isn't it?

Huh? Kidnapping, blackmail, confinement... just say the word.

President Yu.

Can't you see I'm talking to Chairman Do right now?

Why do you keep spouting such nonsense?

I'm sorry.

Go on, Chairman Do.

Yes. An election is an image battle, isn't it?

Instead of an honest educator,

-let's make him out to be corrupt trash. -How much time?

A week? Yes, a week is more than enough.

President Yu. You will support Chairman Do.

So this can move forward as fast as possible.

Deputy Chief Han, you want me to be Chairman Do's lackey?

I'm busy.

I hear the company runs fine without you, President Yu. And yet, you're busy.

Why? You got a secret family on the side or something?

No, sir. I misspoke.

Let me say this just in case.

If there are any setbacks with this project,

then everyone will pay the price.

-Do I make myself clear? -Yes. Understood.

Wow, a mountain of work. This is a big problem.

Director Nam! Did you get all the files from Secretary Baek?

Yes. I've received the files on Kim Seonjoong.

Give those files to my guy, Geum Kang-sik.

Hey, President Yu, don't worry about this. We'll handle it on our end.

Hey, you think I want to work together on this?

It's not 'together.' Weren't you told to 'support me'?

It's just that I don't particularly need your support, President Yu.

This isn't something that can be solved with brute force.

What? Brute force? This son of a bitch...

-Hey, Geum Kang-sik! -Yes?

Starting tomorrow, you and the boys start digging into this Kim Seonjoong.

What? But Chairman Do just said we didn't have to...

Avoid it?

Hey, did you take a bribe from that bastard? Huh?

-Is his word more important than mine? -No, boss.

Kidnapping. Blackmail.

Confinement.

Find anything on Kim Seonjoong that can be used as a weakness.

You'd better not come back empty-handed. Got it?

Understood.

My decision is...

I accept your offer. But... Don't even think about ordering me around.

We're just joining forces for a moment to get what we both want.

I have no intention of becoming your lackey.

So you're determined to protect your pride.

Hey, gangster.

What if you do things your way and screw up the whole operation?

-Want a taste of what a gangster can do? -Boss, calm down. Please?

Does he have a solid plan to beat Yoo In-gu and Han Gyeong-wook?

Or is he just all talk, trying to use us?

Do you know what Yoo In-gu is doing, or what Han Gyeong-wook is plotting?

-Do you know even one single thing? -Well, that's...

If ten years of scanning barcodes at a convenience store has rotted your brain,

then you should do as you're told. And don't talk back.

Did you do anything in ten years besides work in a Chinese kitchen?

"Special agent." Yeah, right. When's the last time you wore a suit?

Who are you calling brain-dead? Let's settle this right now!

This damn thug. You think I can't take you?

Huh? You forgot what happened ten years ago.

-Come on, we didn't meet up for this. -Move!

-Hey, hey, back off. -Hey, let go!

Remember everything from ten years ago? Huh?

Man, if it hadn't rained that day... I would've taken you out for good!

You really are...

Even dumber than you look. Should I jog your memory?

-Hey, move! -Get out of my way!

-Go on, bastard! Hit me! -Boss!

-I said move, you bastard! -Boss...

Move, you son of a bitch. Or should I move you?

-I'll show you what's what! -President Jeong.

-Move. -You have a call. Answer it!

Move. A guy like that...

-I'll put him in his place. -Answer your phone.

You're getting a call.

SEONGWON

-Yeah? What is it? -Jeong Ho-myeong, Prosecutor Kang's alive.

-Really? -We have to find where she went,

but it looks like she washed ashore. How about you?

Are you winning over Gang Beom-ryong?

-What, you bastard? -Working on it. I'll call you back.

Get out of the way. Damn it.

Prosecutor Kang is alive.

-For real? -Of course. Damn.

Does this mean we don't have to do this? Huh?

President Jeong...

Are you going to waste your strength fighting my boss for nothing? Huh?

Fine. You want a temporary alliance? You got it.

Now that we know Prosecutor Kang is alive, we have no time to waste.

Then let's make one thing clear. We are not your subordinates.

Fine, you jerk, I get it! I don't care what our titles are.

But if you question the operation again...

-this alliance is over. Got it? -Fine, I get it!

JEONGSEOK RESIDENCE

Most of the victims gambled at Heaven Casino.

They lured ordinary residents into taking on gambling debts.

Then they deliberately confiscated their houses and land.

The strange thing is,

of all the places on Yeongseon Island, they took land from Nagwon-ri residents.

NAGWON-RI, YEONGSEON-GUN, IMCHEON

Why?

It's a hassle getting rid of houses and land in an island village like this.

Even if there are development plans, it would take ages to see any profit.

Yoo In-gu is definitely acting under orders from Han Gyeong-wook.

Why would Han Gyeong-wook give that order?

-Bastards use Yeongseon Island for... -Your meal is ready.

Okay.

Okay.

Please, eat.

Thank you. You can just leave it there. I'll get to it.

Yes.

Can I ask you something?

Do you think there's any way for the victims to get their homes back?

I'm not sure yet.

Stop working and eat your porridge.

Yes, please leave it there. I'll eat it. Thank you.

No, you have to eat before it gets cold. And you need to take your medicine.

Just a moment. Here.

-May I? -Of course.

Thank you.

Finish your porridge, then you must take this pill. Okay?

If you got seawater in your ear, you could get an infection.

-Are you a nurse, by any chance? -Huh?

It's just that you seem like a professional at this.

Ten years ago, I fell into the ocean just like you did.

I'm just doing for you what the person who saved me did.

-Why did you fall in? -I don't know.

What?

There's no water. I'll get you some warm water.

Hold on. Please eat before it gets cold.

So busy today.

The two of you who once ruled the Mount Hua Sect.

-It is an honor to meet you. -Yes, the honor is mine.

Why are you being so polite to these kids? They're nobody special.

We may not have started on the best of terms,

but let's put the past aside

-and focus on the work ahead. -Yes, I'll work hard.

But is Prosecutor Kang really alive?

Yes, she's definitely alive.

It'll take time to find her, but...

before that, I have a job for you two.

Not Ma Gong-bok. I need someone to tail Bulgae.

President Jeong. A few days ago... Bulgae...

was chased by the Heaven Capital guys and got away.

-So you lost him? -I'm still looking. I'll find him.

-Is that what you call an answer? Damn it. -Hey.

Weren't you distracted by something else yourself?

This pair of bastards... Damn it.

There's something more urgent than finding Bulgae.

Remember what Yoo In-gu said when we bugged him?

-The drug deal. -What?

-What? -Bastard Yoo In-gu is into drugs now?

He said a huge deal is coming up soon that will decide the organization's fate.

The question is how we stop it.

Wait, can the four of us really stop them? I hate to say it, but...

I don't think the Ingu Gang is something the four of us can handle.

In that case, let's just go straight for the top.

Do you think messing up one deal will make Yoo In-gu or Han Gyeong-wook even blink?

Typical gangsters. You only think about what's in front of you.

What?

You take out the head, then what? Bury him in the mountains?

And Gang Beom-ryong, have you forgotten when you went in alone?

For ten years, they've built a fortress. To bring it down,

you have to remove the foundation stones one by one.

The priority is to stop the drug deal and land a fatal blow.

So, do you have a plan?

First, Ma Gong-bok.

Put finding Bulgae on hold for now. And start tailing Yoo In-gu's crew.

Don't miss a single move they make.

-Right away. -Hey, Ho-myeong.

Tailing, wiretapping... This isn't a game.

-Can a civilian do something like that? -He's no civilian. He's the one who...

...stalked me, a National Intelligence Service agent, for ten years.

I don't mean to brag, but...

I know President Jeong's wedding anniversary, Jiwoo's birthday,

and even how many spoons are in your drawer.

Just give the word. I'm an expert at gathering intel.

Well done.

See what I mean? You get how creepy and relentless he is.

And with your leg, don't even think about overdoing it.

Just check the police CCTV footage that Ma Gong-bok has,

and track Prosecutor Kang's movements.

Got it.

What? What is it? What do you want me to do?

-Just get ready. -I'm all set. Ready for what?

Get ready to run like hell.

SOCIAL DANCING

Drive the car carefully.

I'm still upset about the scratch you got on the door last time.

I get it. I'll be careful.

-Thank you. -There's a dent in the back too.

I told you, that wasn't me.

I'll be back. See you tonight.

-Say hi to Kim Seonjoong for me. -Okay.

-Oof. -Mr. Kim.

-Come on in, come on in. -O-ran's here?

-Boss. -Yeah?

A woman is going into Kim Seonjoong's house.

Hey, hey! Get a picture! Get a picture!

Did you get it?

But Boss, honestly, isn't this a bit much?

We're swamped with this seizure warrant for the drug deal,

you told us to find the Martial Arts Master,

and now you want us to track down some guy named Kim Seonjoong.

The guys are all complaining. They say it's too much work.

So what do you want me to do? When the brain is slow, the body suffers.

If both you and I want to keep from getting our legs broken,

we need to do whatever it takes today

to get some new intel on Kim Seonjoong before Chairman Do does.

-For how much longer? -Hang in there a little longer, you punk!

All this crap... will be over soon.

Take a look.

-There's rice and... -Yes.

Underneath are beans, barley, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.

I was originally going to take this to the House of Benevolence,

but you all need it more right now, so you should take it.

I'm so sorry. I'm always complaining when I visit.

How are the victims doing?

-Is the number still growing? -Yes.

I've gathered data on the victims, but Heaven Capital must have pulled strings,

because the police and lawyers just keep saying there's nothing illegal,

and reporters are claiming it's not a story and are just ignoring it.

I honestly don't know what to do anymore.

Damn it. Just hold on a little longer. If I can just win this election,

the first thing I'll do is create a relief plan for the victims.

-Mr. Kim. -I am leading in the polls, you know.

I know!

That's why you have to win the election quickly.

At this rate, people of Yeongseon Island are all going to die.

Let's just hang in there a little longer. Okay?

Okay.

-Okay, come on. -Right.

-We'll put this to good use, Mr. Kim. -Let me know if you need anything else.

-Thank you. -Go on, now.

-I'll get going now. -Okay, then.

Huh? She's on the move.

-What should we do? -What do you mean? Get on her tail, now!

Who is that? I feel like I've seen him somewhere.

Switch with me!

Damn it. She made us. I told you to keep your distance, damn it!

-Hey, this is perfect. Get right on him. -Yes, sir.

Hey, it's a dead end. Huh?

-Right. -Hey, get ready.

-Right. -And kill the engine.

IMCHEON 30 BA 8690

ORAN CHINESE RESTAURANT

Cuckoo!

ORAN CHINESE RESTAURANT

-Jiwoo. -It's Dad! Dad!

Jiwoo.

-Have you been well? -Yeah.

-Did you eat today? -Yeah. Dad, I missed you.

I missed you too.

What is this, a family reunion?

President Jeong.

You scared me. What's the occasion? You're out so early.

Where have you been all this time?

Do you know how worried I was? After you left,

the two of us have been struggling so much, you have no idea.

O-ran's been out and about all the time for K-pop or whatever.

If things keep up like this,

one of us, either Mr. Kim or me, is going to end up kicking the bucket.

You're back for good, right? You're not going to leave again, are you?

Dad. Are you back?

Today, I just came to see Jiwoo. I just stopped by for a bit to see Jiwoo.

When on earth are you going to make up with O-ran, huh?

She even blocked my number, so there's nothing I can do.

A letter! You can just write a letter.

-I think she'd just tear it up. -So you're just going to do nothing?

You're not coming back?

To make up with Jiwoo's mom, there's something I have to take care of.

I'll go back after I've finished that.

Dad, then when are you coming home?

I'll be back as soon as I can.

Then,

since you're here anyway, couldn't you peel onions before you go?

Is there any incense left at home?

Boss.

They have Yuringi lunch boxes these days. Can I have one?

Go ahead. There's no one to eat it anyway.

Were you by any chance saving it for that police officer?

-In that case, I won't eat it. -No, go ahead and eat.

She's not coming anyway.

Huh? She's not coming? Did you break it off cleanly?

There was nothing to break off. We were never anything in the first place.

It's an eyesore. Hurry up, eat it, and get it out of here.

Yes, it's an eyesore, so I'll eat it and get it out of here.

Mr. Gang!

-You're here early. -I rushed over as soon as I got your call.

What's going on? Why the sudden call about the shop?

Let's talk inside.

-Eat first, then come in. -Okay.

Wait!

What is it?

There's a 24-hour convenience store just 300 meters from here.

-From now on, please use that one. -Excuse me?

Did the owner say that? To tell me not to come here?

This is a bit awkward for me to say, but...

our boss lives in a completely different world from you.

He has big things ahead of him, so don't needlessly distract him.

It would be best if you backed off now.

Big plans?

Let me guess.

Is he planning to open a supermarket or something?

And who are you to say that to me?

My boss... I know him better than anyone else

in this entire world. You have no idea how much... how much

you got on his nerves, do you?

He said that?

-That I get on his nerves? -Yes, he said so himself.

He said you two are nothing to each other, and having you was getting on his nerves.

If you're chosen for a second year, you get more benefits from headquarters.

-Please reconsider. -Something's come up.

-I'm sorry for the short notice. -What are we going to do?

Even if we rush, it'll take at least three months.

Please do it as quickly as possible.

Just a moment. I'll be taking inventory.

-About headquarters... -Whoa, you scared me!

-Make some noise next time. -I've been here the whole time.

No, you... that...

-Huh? Just now... -You mean that cop? The lunatic.

-I sent her away. -Lunatic?

What? You sent her away?

Didn't you say that you two were nothing to each other?

She kept coming in and out of the store,

and I was worried she'd just mess with your head,

so I just took care of it myself.

What are you talking about? What did you take care of?

You didn't realize?

The way she looks at you, it seems like she has a crush on you.

Really?

-How would you know that? -Hey, what do you mean by that?

How many women come to the store just to give me a drink?

That cop had the same look on her face when she was looking at you.

It's a good thing I took care of it.

What would you have done if you two had hit it off? Huh?

This could have easily ended up on an investigative report.

"Collusion Between an Ex-Gangster and a Police Officer."

Just thinking about it gives me the creeps.

I did a good job, right?

Everything you're saying is r-right. Yeah, sure, you're right.

That could have been a real disaster. I saved the day.

HANMAEUM K-POP

The person you are calling is unavailable. After the beep...

I was too harsh.

At least tell me where you are.

The person you are calling is unavailable. Please leave a message...

UNCLE, WHERE ARE YOU?

SORRY. I WAS TOO HARSH WHEN

Who is it? Your uncle?

Yeah.

Hey, don't be like that. Just go back and beg for forgiveness.

Are you crazy? I have some pride.

How can I go back after blowing up like that?

You're out of money for the gaming cafe, right?

You should at least go get some cash.

Do you really think I'm that much of a scumbag?

You want me to go to the guy who's living like a slave because of me

and ask him for money?

Jeez, you immature high schooler.

When I can pay back the money he lost and free him from his life of servitude,

that's when I'll go back. In style.

How're you gonna do that when you're flat broke?

That's why I'm trying to make money now. This part-time job search is hell.

NIGHT SHIFT PART-TIMER

LUNCH SERVER

Jeez, why is the hourly pay for all of these so bad?

Damn it.

Hey Nam-il, I saw Jin-su yesterday. He mentioned a high-paying job,

but he said they're short on people.

If you're interested, want me to ask him about it?

-It's not another sketchy job, is it? -You think it'd be legit?

-It pays a million won a day. -What? A m-million won?

For real?

HAVEN CAPITAL VICTIM LIST

BONG JE-SUN/HEO NAM-IL

Bong Jae-sun.

Yes?

Oh, dear.

I've prepared a nourishing meal for you today.

Here we go. There we go. This isn't just any chicken.

It's a free-range one. Looks delicious, doesn't it?

Wow.

Bong Je-sun.

-Yes? -May I just use my hands?

-Of course. -Okay.

Okay.

Thank you.

Here, let me get the meat for you.

Je-sun, why are you hanging around here? Don't you have a job?

-Th-this is my job. -Huh?

I had an office job,

but I got fired.

Because those thugs from Haven Capital came to my workplace and caused a scene.

I saw your name, Bong Jae-sun, on the victim list here.

Did you gamble?

Not me, my nephew.

It wasn't even for a lot of money. He got suckered in.

He's not even your son. Who takes on their nephew's debt?

What?

-Did you co-sign for him? -No, it wasn't like that.

It's just...

I couldn't just ignore it. I told you before, didn't I?

Remember ten years ago, I fell into the water just like you did?

The ones who saved me,

and took me in when I lost all my memories and had nowhere to go...

The ones who took me in as family... were my nephew and his grandfather.

So that's why you said you don't know how you ended up in the ocean.

That's incredible. It's like a movie.

Huh? You really don't remember? Not a single thing?

My memory...

I even tried things like hypnotherapy, but it was no use.

I would just have these recurring dreams...

That felt like scenes from an action movie.

-An action movie? -Yes, an action movie.

Hello?

Excuse me, Prosecutor.

I have something I'd like to discuss. Do you have a moment?

Discuss?

You said two men were following you when you left Seon-jung's place yesterday?

Yes.

But I'm not entirely sure.

It definitely seemed like they were tailing me.

I couldn't lead them here, so...

I hid in an alley. I figured it was do-or-die.

I grabbed a piece of wood and waited for them,

but they suddenly disappeared.

From the glimpse I got, they didn't look like regular guys.

They looked just like the thugs from Haven Capital.

What if...

they found out we're helping the debt collection victims,

and that's why they were following us?

But why didn't you call the police right at the scene?

If they're from the loan company, it's useless to report them.

For them to lock people up and beat them without any repercussions...

what kind of backing do you think they have?

Even if we reported them and they got caught,

they would've just been let go with a slap on the wrist.

-Is it that bad? -You don't have to look far.

There's a Sergeant Kim in my precinct. He's a stooge for the loan companies.

What should we do? If they really are from Heaven Capital,

-we need to come up with a plan. -How about a Head-on Breakthrough?

-A Head-on Breakthrough? -Yes.

Can you tell me more about this Sergeant Kim?

Code One. 34 Nakwon 2-ro. Assault in progress.

I'm right near there. I'll take it.

SGT. KIM, REPORT IN. DISPATCH IN THREE

Hey, cut it out. Let's go. Yes, sir.

Everyone on Yeongseon Island knows him.

Even though he's a cop...

instead of stopping illegal collectors, he protects them.

Aren't there any CCTV cameras nearby? -I told you, there weren't any.

Are the police really allowed to act like this?

How is a regular citizen supposed to check CCTV footage?

He takes bribes and corrupts his colleagues too.

The number of loan company cases Sergeant Kim has covered up is countless.

At this point, he's less of a cop...

...and more of a thug for Heaven Capital.

Mi-kyung, this Sergeant Kim...

The traffic accident on the riverside road a few days ago...

Could you find out if he handled that case too?

Prosecutor, how do you know about that?

I already thought it was strange. He's a guy who always slacks off,

but he made a show of handling the accident.

I just found the whole thing really suspicious.

This might be easier to solve than I thought.

-I'll go see Sergeant Kim myself tomorrow. -You will, Prosecutor?

Looks familiar, doesn't it?

Hey, isn't this the place where Yoo In-gu held me captive?

That's right. Yeongseon Food. This is their base of operations.

They pack drugs disguised as food preservatives in jerky,

and distribute them across the country from Yeongseon Island.

In two days...

...a huge shipment of drugs from the People's Republic of China...

...will enter Yeongseon Island through Yeongseon Port.

So they're smuggling it in as cargo?

There's a rumor that the Ingu Gang poured all their money into this.

It hasn't been confirmed these drugs are Han Gyeong-wook's source of funding,

which is a bit unsettling, but... ...if we succeed...

-We could finish Yoo In-gu for good. -Exactly.

-You're keeping close tabs on them, right? -I was just about to bring that up.

I think those bastards were trying to go after someone named Kim Seonjoong.

Kim Seonjoong?

Yes, he's Han Gyeong-wook's opponent in the Incheon mayoral election.

It doesn't seem connected to the drug deal,

but I have no idea what they're plotting.

Yesterday, they were even tailing a woman who visited Kim Seonjoong's house.

I thought they were about to cross a line,

so I chased them down and neutralized them.

Did you see her face?

While I was dealing with those guys... ...the woman ran off.

But I did manage to get a photo of her license plate.

It seems like Kim Seonjoong's group isn't really involved in this deal,

so you take the license plate number and look into it when you have time.

Okay.

You keep tracking Yoo In-gu's movements related to the deal.

Yes.

What about Prosecutor Kang? Have you found anything?

A man was seen carrying Prosecutor Kang

and they went into the redevelopment zone. That much is confirmed.

But after that, they vanished completely.

There are no security cameras there either.

Sigh, if we just had Prosecutor Kang, things would be so much easier.

-Anyway, keep looking. -Okay, okay.

And Kang...

Gang Beom-ryong.

Gang Beom-ryong!

-Hey. -What? Why? What? What's going on?

-What? -Gang Beom-ryong, what do you think?

What do I think? About what?

Don't you have any idea how Yoo In-gu's side will move?

He worked under you, so you must know Yoo In-gu's habits best.

Habits?

Sheesh, why do you need my opinion? Gong-bok did all the research.

Were you even listening?

Aish . I was lost in thought. I just missed a few words.

Come on, I got the gist of it.

Drugs entering Yeongseon Island, and you're spacing out?

Maybe because you're a former gangster, but you have no responsibility or passion.

Ah, this guy is unbelievable.

You bring up being a gangster every chance you get.

Hey.

Do you think gangsters don't have feelings?

Don't you care how this gangster feels?

What?

You're the one who was in the wrong, you jerk.

-Don't hold him back. -It's fine. Don't hold me.

Hey, I wasn't holding you.

Dude, what's with you?

Look, I got the gist of it.

If you have any orders for me, just pass them through Gong-bok.

I have to get the restaurant ready, so I'm leaving first.

Beom-ryong. Gosh. What's with him? Jeez.

Beom-ryong.

Take care on your way out.

I'm sorry.

-I got a little heated. -No need to be sorry.

But...

You seem to be under a lot of stress lately.

So, the reason Kang Beom-yong is acting like this,

is probably because of that cop he has a crush on.

Yeah. He said there was nothing between them,

but he's been like this ever since she visited.

-This is serious. -Why?

If he's like this the day before the operation,

he could mess things up.

Come on, Beom-ryong was a legend in the Mount Hua Sect.

Would he really screw up the job just because he had a fight with a girl?

Are you so sure that by tomorrow, Kang Beom-yong

will have completely gotten over that woman?

From what you've seen, is he really that rational and cold-hearted?

He's not that kind of person.

Everything you know about Gang Beom-ryong, tell me all of it.

Hey, Park Mi-kyung. Get over here.

Hurry up and get over here.

Why do you keep sticking your nose where it doesn't belong? Why?

You think all cops are the same? There are different levels.

You barely managed to get that civil servant ID at your age,

so you should know your place. Know your place.

Ugh, this is so frustrating. To think someone like her got in...

Just do your job right.

-Turning yourself in? -You scared me.

Hey, who the hell are you? How did you know to come all the way here?

You know, standing there, you actually fit right in.

What?

Right. Repenting for the sins you committed as a gangster

and turning yourself in isn't a bad idea.

Or...

why are you staring so longingly at the police station?

It's because of that officer in front of the station earlier, isn't it?

-Who? -For you, you've got high standards. Jeez.

Hey, but don't you think your genres are too different?

She's a romance, you're a crime thriller. You two don't match at all.

The way I see it, a convenience store regular and its owner,

that's the best relationship you can get.

-Ma Gong-bok again? -Yeah.

Just go home.

It's not what you or Ma Gong-bok are worried about.

I didn't lose my mind over Park Mi-kyung and come all the way here.

If it's not that,

then why are you here at such a crucial time?

Hey, Gang Beom-ryong.

-Don't you know what's important now? -I know, I know.

What do you know? I'm determined to wrap everything up.

I already packed my bags and left home!

Even if we give tomorrow's operation 100 percent, it'll be hard to succeed.

If you try to juggle too many things, you'll end up losing both.

Whether it's Yoo In-gu or Han Gyeong-wook, we need to finish this

so you can go back to the life you want, right?

So stop getting distracted and just focus on the mission.

Whether you confess to that officer and get rejected,

you can do that later. It won't be too late.

Don't be so smug. I know.

Once this is all settled, I can make my move then!

But from what I can see,

-i don't think it will work out for you. -Don't be ridiculous.

Ma Gong-bok told me. He said Park Mi-kyung is interested in me too.

You believe that? Ma Gong-bok said that to make you feel better.

Hey, does Ma Gong-bok seem like he gives a damn about me?

But still. What will you do if you get rejected?

What, is this it? There's nothing to go on.

Sir, Kkot-nim and I were watching him like hawks,

but not a single soul came near the place. Man, this guy is incredibly thorough.

What about the tail?

He doesn't go anywhere but campaign office and a restaurant.

-He doesn't meet with anyone privately. -All right, put it away.

We could dig into him for a hundred days and not find a single crumb.

If he's this clean,

even Chairman Do won't have a way to get to him.

It's a shame I couldn't get back at that vixen,

but it's come to this, watching her get chewed out by Chief Han...

I guess I'll settle for that.

Let's drop this

and focus on our own business. You know what I'm saying?

Yes, sir.

Other than that woman, no one has been in or out of Kim Seonjoong's house.

This woman, did you find out who she is?

One thing's for sure. She's no ordinary woman.

Just as we were about to grab her, some strange guy showed up,

and given how he ambushed us,

it's clear she has powerful backup.

Backup?

-But if you look here instead... -Here?

Right here. I got a picture of her license plate.

And you're sure President Yu doesn't know anything about her?

Yes, of course. I haven't reported any of this.

Also, President Yu plans to stay out of the Kim Seonjoong business for now...

...and just focus on the deal.

Okay, okay.

Let's make sure President Yu continues to focus only on the deal.

Don't let him get distracted by this nonsense. Okay?

-Yes, sir. -You can go. You must be busy -with the deal coming up, Mr. Geum.

Bye.

Kim Seonjoong...

Looks like we have a new variable. Should we change plans for Kim Seonjoong?

No, no. Let's stick to our plan for now.

We can't just throw everything away now that it's all set up.

-Then I'll adjust the schedule as planned. -Wait.

Still, just in case...

Run the plates on this woman's car and find out who she is.

They said she's not just anybody.

We need to see if she'll affect our plan or not.

-We should at least check. -Yes, I understand.

The fire's too low. It's too low.

Why is this so tough?

They're probably passing off a lower grade as prime. Huh?

Please, just go.

Stop disrupting my business and eating for free.

Lady, don't go making false accusations. Who says I'm disrupting your business?

This tastes awful. This is terrible. So tough.

The meat here is tough.

Here's your protection money, or whatever. So please...

...just please go. Okay?

See? It would've been so much easier if you'd just paid up sooner.

Why do you have to make things difficult? And to a police officer.

Don't you think you're going too far? You're going too far, aren't you?

Lady.

Don't you see those shops over there getting kicked out by Heaven Capital?

Any idea who you're dealing with? You're in business because of me!

What's the point of me running this business...

...if you take all my earnings every day? How am I supposed to make a living?

Lady.

Then you'll just have to work harder, won't you? Come on, you can do it

Stop whining. And pack me up some of that chuck flap.

I'll take it home. Hurry, hurry.

What's this? What are you doing here?

I'm on patrol.

Patrol?

What kind of patrol?

Patrolling for thugs like you.

What? Park Mi-kyung, have you lost your mind?

You're the one who's lost their mind, not Mi-kyung.

-What now? Who the hell are you? -I'm so disappointed.

I heard you were looking all over for me,

but you don't even recognize me.

What are you talking about? Who are you?

Me? I'm the one Sergeant Kim...

...has been desperately searching for, the Water Ghost,

prosecutor Gang Yeong-ae.

What?

-That's ridiculous. -My car accident...

I hear you ran around trying to pass it off as an accidental death.

Once you're serving time for obstruction, you'll find out if I'm the Water Ghost...

...or Prosecutor Gang Yeong-ae.

-What are you doing here? -Hold on, hold on.

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

MY CASH COW 2

Hey! Why don't you pick up your damn phone?

Sorry. I was in the middle of something. Boss, what is it?

What do you mean? The Package is coming from China tomorrow.

Don't you remember I told you to take care of things?

Yes, yes. I-I remember.

Anyway, make sure no cops are sniffing Yeongseon Port.

And... check for that suspicious guy who looks like a Martial Arts Master.

And step up the patrols.

-Yes, got it. -Okay.

Sergeant Kim.

It seems you and I have a lot to talk about.

Supervisor Bong.

-Yes? -Can you get up now?

Yes, I'm good.

Yes, this is Jang Yeong-gi from the Nampo Police Narcotics Unit 2.

Guess who?

Why did you call the station? You could've just called my cell.

Man, you're no fun. Whatever. I'll explain later. Yeong-gi.

You want a big bust, right?

Why?

Because something really big just came up.

I'm on Yeongseon Island. Get over here tomorrow.

-Let's team up for old times' sake. -Prosecutor.

After you quit the force to become a prosecutor,

you should be sitting at a desk doing paperwork,

so why do you insist on doing fieldwork yourself?

Hey, is that any way to work, questioning everything?

Is that how I taught you?

I'm saying this because I'm worried. I'm worried.

Fine, so what is it?

-Thanks for letting me use the phone. -Sure. Did your call go well?

The detectives will be here tomorrow.

Are you feeling okay?

I'll be fine. It still tingles a bit, though.

I think I need to get back to the station. What should we do?

Should we just lock him up?

Hey! Throw me in the slammer? For what? I'm innocent.

No. Let's take him with us for now.

Those bastards from the Ingu Gang.

I knew it was strange how quiet they were before a big job.

They'll use the high schoolers as human shields.

Using high school kids in a drug deal? T-This is insane.

I know, right? Even the criminal underworld has rules.

That bastard Geum Kang-sik has met with 20 or 30 high school students.

And they just think it's a simple, high-paying part-time job.

It gets messy if there are more people involved.

And we can't be rough with these kids who don't know anything.

If it can't be done, we have to make it happen.

It's a guy named President Baek.

A smuggler whose specialties are contraband and illegal immigration.

He's the type to bribe at Yeongseon Port, and he even set up an office there.

Without him, smuggling on Yeongseon Island is impossible.

The place Yoo In-gu is bringing the drugs tomorrow...

...is being provided by this President Baek.

If we can secure that location beforehand and set everything up perfectly,

we have a good chance of winning.

Is that really possible?

Even if we report the drugs, Yoo In-gu and Han Gyeong-wook...

...will obviously find a way to get released,

and it's not like we can take down all their men.

But if we just want to screw over Yoo In-gu,

if we focus only on that, it's not impossible.

The picture is becoming clear. Where do we start?

-You and Ma Gong-bok, go set the stage. -With Ma Gong-bok?

-You think a civilian can handle this? -Hey, I can do anything. Just watch me.

All right, what about me?

-Should I be on standby? -You're with me.

We're going to secure a location.

-I guess you're not confident to go alone. -I could go by myself, but...

I'm only taking you because you need something to do.

No more complaints. Just follow me.

-All right, when are we leaving? -Now.

Mr. Kim.

For crying out loud. Is this your first day? Huh? Geez.

The Package will be transported safely.

-Don't worry. Buy me a drink sometime. -Hey!

Hold on, hold on.

-What's going on? -I'll make this quick.

Tomorrow night, you have The Package from the People's Republic of China.

We need to do a little "tuning" on The Package.

Let us borrow your place of business for just two days.

Think of it as a sort of venue sponsorship.

Heh. Unbelievable.

What the hell are these wannabe gangsters rambling about?

Hey, what are you waiting for? Get 'em!

-What are you doing? Get out there. -By myself? What about you?

-What, are you scared? -Scared? Hell no. I'm not you!

SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR GUEST STARS, KIM SANG-KYUNG AND KWON YUL

FIFTIES PROFESSIONAL

Venue secured. Let's start setting up.

Now it feels like we're a real alliance.

-Aren't you worried? -My calculations are never wrong.

It's obvious those two had a thing.

-By yourself, Prosecutor? -Then want to come with me, Je-sun?

-I'll probably get an earful. -Tell me. Something's happened, hasn't it?

-I'm pregnant. -Pregnant?

-You believe that crap? -Don't be ridiculous.

Because we know better than anyone just how bad Han Gyeong-wook is.

The bomb has been delivered.

If we're going to set it off, we might as well make it a good show.

Of course! He could die in there!

-Hey, boss! -I was wondering when you'd show up.

It was you?
