Eun-joo!

Nanny, is Eun-joo awake'?

I told you not to eat the junk food like this.

Do you want to end up being in the hospital?

Company 2! The leaders ran to the alleys.

I wasn't protesting! What's with you'?

Chol GHQ-sung, doth you remember me'?

WEE?

What the hell, you bastards?!

We just kept the small ones. Give us a break!

You crooks!

'Wu.

Boss, these bastards pocketed all the big ones!

That son of a bitch!

You damn assholes!

It was just a few small ones. The rich are so greedy.

Q BQWNK Kvung-taek

- Good morning, Eun-joo. - Good morning.

How much in total'?

This film is based on true event happened in Pusan 1978.

THE CLASSIFIED FILE

- What the hell'? - What now'?

You'll get 20g gold for being Officer of the Month.

This is it'?

M Emmy

There you go again!

I'm pinched, that's all I got.

I know you got a big out from Taechang Rubber!

Come on, pay Up-

You'd skin a flea for its hide!

One, two, three.

- Make it five. - Take three and go.

Md.

Sang-gi...

Make sure he gets a long sentence.

You know what he did to that bus attendant.

Don't worry.

That son of a bitch!

You keep watch.

- Stop, will you'? - Come here, asshole!

Villi-Y W}, fl BUS-AN HYQSUNQ'; ELEMENTARY

Eun-joo!

Here. See you!

That's junk food.

- You know them well'? - Yeah.

Sung-hafis dad helped my aunt.

Hey kids! Can you help me with this'?

I see, sir.

WEEK-mam.

WEE'?

We'll take care of that. Yes.

What did he say'?

In front of the school,

Eun-Xoo and Min-bye

got in the car of a man who was asking for directions.

WEE?

Oh my...

WIFE! happened HQ

What should we do, sis!

I can't believe it.

If he plans to ask for money, then I think she's safe for now.

Do you happen to have any enemies around you'?

It's highly possible that someone you know did this.

This is her room.

People who know you keep cash at home, driver and nanny included,

Sis.

And workers at the fishing company who might have resentments.

We'll investigate, but if we don't get a call in 2-3 days,

ma. air.

We need urgently to find a witness,

offering a reward if necessary.

L] WEI yesterday!

We just need to check a few more things.

We can't just sit around and wait.

Let's try things our way.

JULY 19 2 DAYS SINCE KIDNAPPING

There are more than six instances

of gold and earth in her fate,

which is quite tough for a girl.

I think you should prepare for the worst.

Oh no...

Should we try an exorcism?

Mm...

Even if you buy me tons of cookies, it's no use.

Sis has already closed her eyes for good.

What the fuck'?

I resign... I'm already sick with guilt.

(gamma

imam I]

Those crazy bastards. Digging into my affairs

instead of looking for the girl!

I don't know them.

I only know the girl's aunt who runs a bakery in Nampo-dong.

H ow?

Some gangsters tried hitting her up for money,

- so I kicked their asses. - Is it so'?

Anyway, the girl's father called the chief directly?

And demanded the detective who caught the pockmarked kidnapper.

Just go and talk to them.

Isn't that Jungbu station's jurisdiction'?

He'd die rather than let them take the case.

WW?

Last night they took the driver

and tortured him pretty bad,

asking about his boss's mistresses.

Well, it's no surprise the father blew his top.

His cash holdings are second to none in Busan

and they say he pulls strings in Seoul, too.

With all the kidnappings these days,

the President ordered a special task force

to handle abduction cases. This could be your chance.

You want to be in the squad forever?

He“...

mil-Wag Mama,

now you tell me to steal another?

You think I'm a mutt'?

Gamma?

Amen

If you hadn't called our boss a dumb fuck, you'd still be here!

[swarm Enema'?

No, the next class over. In first grade, they were.

Kids, dad's home!

Welcome home, dad!

Hey, aren't you hot wearing that'?

What's with your face, Sung-hen'?

Chang-gun hit him with a pencil case.

You let him hit you'?

Are you a sissy'?!

Our boy punched him first.

Chang-gun was teasing me,

saying that oops wipe the butts of the rich.

Pulled...

Stop that, it's disgusting!

Don't hit!

Anyway, that baker's relatives want me back again.

WEE?

To find their missing child.

Yes, you should!

I heard they're desperate with grief.

She sends us these cookies all the time.

Don't accept them from now on. I'm not taking the case.

Why

If things go bad and the girl dies, I'll take all the rap.

Why should I take it'?

Mammy

What's happened to you, Detective'?

How can you be so cold-hearted'?

What the hell did you say'?

What's important is the kid, not the jurisdiction!

Would you say that if it were our child?

Don't you know why they sent me to the squad?

'Mama

What's to think about?

You're saying you have time to chase protestors,

but no time to save kids just like our own!

Gosh...

They musfve given you lots of cookies.

JULY 2O 3 DAYS SINCE THE KIDNAPPING

You know...

there's a man who just came back from the mountain after prayers.

How about going to see him'?

Who is it'?

Hello?

Is this Guru Kim's residence?

Who's calling?

JULY 22 5 DAYS SINCE KIDNAPPING

According to Min-hye who rode with Eun-joo that day,

he spoke in a Seoul accent

and followed the kids' directions as if he didn't know the way.

It means he's not from here.

And she said he offered them a ride home.

It means he didn't know she usually had a driver.

Seems obvious

that he wasn't targeting her in particular.

Min-hye got off first,

Emit ,,

I guess it would be Min-hye

WEE abducted WEE

From the start, investigating resentment as a motive

was a waste of time.

That's what I'm saying! Crazy fools!

Elma

I mean, I can't organize a team myself...

The chief already agreed.

Pardon'?

He promised to transfer you temporarily

to the metropolitan police so you can join the investigation.

When those gangsters harassed me,

you kicked their asses all on your own!

'Film-aha

I don't know about that, anyway,

it's your birth destiny to find her!

- What'? - Forget that talk.

I know you caught the man

who killed the dealer at Kukje Market

as well as the pockmarked abductor.

You must help us.

Later, whether it's money or a promotion,

I'll do anything I can for you.

You have lots of cash, right'?

Pardon'?

Let's use that first.

After all, the goal of an abduction

[Emma

hail-s I]

That's not what I mean.

The kidnapper will surely be watching you

MISSING CHILD NAME.' SUNG EUN-JOO

to see if you report to the police.

But if he hears the police started an investigation,

the girl will be in danger.

So we need to set up a separate investigation office

in a place the kidnapper will never guess.

Sir, you visit all of Susan's press outlets

and buy their silence no matter how much it costs.

You and our chief director are close, you said'?

Meet him and beg him to make it a closed investigation.

Let me find some way...

And when the phone rings, only mother can answer it.

If he hears a man's voice, he might think it's a cop.

We need to keep this strictly classified

mam.

am;

I see.

Did they send the list

of offenders from Seoul who did similar crimes?

They said if they find anything unusual

they' ll investigate themselves.

I told you to get everything sent down here!

If it's not in theirjurisdiotion they won't give a damn!

My point exactly.

Ham-ii Rama.

Doflt you agree?

Manama!

Who saw the plate of that car'?

I'm sure there are.

But how can they remember the number'?

Now you and Euniyoo...

when the stranger asks you to,

you close the trunk of the car, right'?

Mm m;

What

Two...

And'?

Can't you see more'?

MIN-H YE.' 2

Any more'?

- Eight. - And'?

What did your teacher say about Eun-joo'?

She went to the States to visit her relatives.

'WEB

And don't tell your friends

that I came here to school.

I won't.

Go on.

Were you...

- close to Eun-joo'? - Yeah.

She was nice to kids like me picked for the school by lottery.

Ha?

- What is this'? - String from a whistle.

Wm: [HEW kidnappings mama

lots of parents have their kids wear these to school.

7 DAYS SINCE KIDNAPPING

Mama Emma!

You think so'?

NIH? abducted,

kids usually cry all night for their parents.

After a couple days, the kidnappers shut them up.

It's easier to go get the ransom with the kid dead.

NO RANSOM DEMAND

Then why isn't this bastard calling?

'I O days already...

You think she's alive'?

- Of course not. - That's why he doesn't call...

If we don't want to take all the blame,

we should open the investigation ASAP,

get witness reports and at least catch the kidnapper.

This is Gong at Busan Metropolitan Police.

Is there any report on a little girl's corpse?

Thank

I'm sorry.

Thought

No need to apologize.

We also wanted to check...

but were far too soared.

There's been no report so far,

so let's wait a bit more.

Gosh... anyway...

mama-amazed] $121153.

On the 'I st'?

Yes... someone told her

that the kidnapper would call on the 15th day.

And not to worry, because she's alive.

Who told her that'?

A guru.

(Emir?

Yes, he also said...

that only you have a fate

that can save our Euniyoo.

Guru Baeks assistant'?

F-ertuneteller

started out dirt poor in 'I970

reading fortunes behind the Government Center.

He moved to Seoul last year after making his fortune.

M; m...

People say he's gifted and precise,

predicting who will die, who will pass an exam,

or even how many coins are in your pocket.

Kim Joong-san is his assistant...

Real name Kim Geum-tae.

(Baum-me?

What's his background?

Mushy,

he went to law school and lectured for a political party.

He spent the last 4 years as Baek's apprentice.

When Baek moved to Seoul, Kim took his phone number in Busan.

Now Kim's on his own

fortune-telling.

VVell educated, he must be a smooth talker.

Thanks for the brief.

Poke out your own eyes, bastard. Not mine.

Who is it'?

Who are you'?

Is Mr. Kim here'?

Who are you'?

I'm a cop. Here to ask him a few things.

You guys took him already.

Pardon'?

You have no alibi for before the kidnapping,

and on that exact day, you came home!

How many times should I say it'?

I was in the mountains, praying.

Yeah, you think we'll buy that shit'?

You went to college in Seoul

so I guess you can speak in Seoul accent.

Repeat what you said in Seoul accent.

Speak!

Hey you trickster.

You've gone to temples with her more than once!

You musfve planned the kidnapping knowing he has lots of cash in the house.

Better come clean now!

Where did you hide the girl's body'?

He really was in a temple in Mt. Jiri from early June.

Film-a mm; Buddhists

Why would I take his side'?

So you came to me because my birthdate fits'?

Not just for that.

Listen to him only when it's needed.

I understand how desperate you are.

But how would other oops react if they find out'?

(all-agape ma!

But Guru Kim said firmly

QM;

only with your help!

I saw your statement.

It says you did something with Great Monk Sungchol'?

You used to be a monk'?

I was his retinue for 2 years.

But I left, after deciding I couldn't attain the truth

with Buddhist scripture only.

You mean you'd rather be fortuneteller than monk'?

I chose the path of a guru

mm Buddhist.

Foretell

he'd be dragged to the station and beaten?

Couldve escaped if you knew.

I can't know everything in this world.

Then why didn't you keep quiet'?

Going on about a call on the 15th day.

If you pray sincerely for something,

it reaches Heaven.

Ma: a“

A response?

The 15th day I predicted

is the day a tree that's not in Eun-jods fate meets water

mam...

Fine, whatever!

No use explaining to me.

So the clue behind your 'I 5th day crap

is some response from Heaven?

A response?

That's all you've got'?

Vt-ma

Don't detectives also feel something like that when chasing criminals?

[Eat-s

but there's an intuition

that only you can feel.

Then should I cuff you'?

Following my intuition'?

When shit like this happens,

of course mothers come to you, because they' re desperate.

But for me, gurus don't exist.

There are only people who flirt with rich housewives,

getting free meals and chasing after cash.

Be prepared next time you say that sort of thing.

Then I'll have a 'response'.

Is this Eun-jods mother'?

Why haven't you called the police'?

What the heck do you want'?

If it's money, just say how much.

I] ..

Is Eun-joo okay'?

Harm]?

All that we want...

is to bring her back.

Prepare $50,000 in cash.

Then check the circuit breaker box at Gudok APT, 5th floor.

And wait by Mammoth Records in Daesin-dong tomorrow with the cash.

Don't forget.

If the police know,

the girl dies.

Did you buy Eun-joo a whistle?

Yes.

She wore it around her neck just in case.

She's alive.

Our girl is alive!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank God!

Guru Kim got it right!

He said it'd come on the 15th day.

Thank you, Guru Kim.

Thank you so much.

Don't worry.

15 DAYS SINCE KIDNAPPING

Eun-jods a smart girl. She'll come home safe.

You'll get the call on the 15th day.

- Pardon'? - What'?

F tom whom?

Th? kidnapper

It has to be near the river.

[swarm

From what I can see, she is.

But other fortunetellers told us

Eun-joo has a bad destiny, too much gold and earth.

I don't disagree. More than six gold, actually.

But those gold and earth run in all directions.

In other words, there is excess in every direction.

Ironically,

This Chinese character 'joo' in her name means 'red.'

It's rarely used in names, and it makes her stand out to evil.

Be sure to change her name later.

I will.

Thank you, sir.

Have you ever released captive animals?

Pardon'?

You said your husband makes a living catching fish.

I'm asking if you ever saved them instead.

Live well...

Please let my girl live.

AUGUST 2 1ST ATTEMPT TO MEET KIDNAPPER

Come to lmrang Beach before dawn,

mam

AUGUST 4 2ND ATTEMPT TO MEET KIDNAPPER

If I see anyone suspicious, Eun-joo dies.

Come to Manduk Tunnel

- by 2pm tomorrow. - How many times has it been'?

You need to trust us!

If you watched me

you'd have seen there was no cop anywhere!

I left directions in the tunnel

so follow them with the money.

Where in the tunnel'? What directions?

Mm daughter?

She misses you a lot.

Either his car's among these,

or else they're all cops!

I saw these cars come and go hundreds of times!

Emma; ll

- Why did you trick me'? - You call this an investigation?

You invited the whole force into a confidential operation.

And why the hell was the American authority called in'?

What sort of oops get busted by a housewife?

I don't know what the father promised you.

But we're the officially appointed team!

Don't you think you're out of line'?

He didn't promise me anything!

We need to keep watch for any suspects or witnesses!

You're the one who put us underground!

Whafll you do if the kidnapper stops calling

and we find a corpse?

If you hadn't screwed things up from the start,

I wouldn't be here!

AUGUST 'I4 28 DAYS SINCE KIDNAPPING

- Hello? - Boss! Well...

Tell them to wait a bit more.

Ma. air.

Wait a bit longer.

What the fuck!

Can we really trust hypnosis?

There's no Granada with a plate starting with 28.

There are lots of doubts from above on your investigation.

Who'll m;

and the girl stays missing?

Can't believe this...

We must not lose our hope yet.

She indeed has too much gold and earth in her fate,

but many trees in her mother's fate weaken these gold and earth.

Moreover, the water in Detective Gongs fate

I'm too sick to move anymore.

Wherever you tell me to go, I'm not going.

AUGUST 16 3O DAYS SINCE KIDNAPPING

Manna-wan; ..

Let's meet one last time on the 19th in Seoul.

Seoul? ls Eun-joo there?

I heard her relative lives in Yeouido.

What's the phone number there'?

First I'll go to Seoul with Eun-jods aunt.

Our relative there is an old classmate of

the Director General of the National Police.

So we'd like to meet him first.

You know the Chief Inspector on TV'?

- The main actor? - Not him.

You can see his name in the end credits

expert adviser

That person will lead the special team himself.

Than...

No way!

You need to go, no matter what.

They didn't say so, but the other oops felt uncomfortable with me.

And it'd be the same for the Seoul police.

Ma.

It's a small sign of my gratitude.

With the best cop in Korea leading the case,

I think it's only a matter of time to find her.

In this world,

we need more than just power and money.

I heard your son

[my daughter

So please go to Seoul with Guru Kim

and bring my girl back home.

A blood vessel in the nose is ruptured.

Shall we operate now'?

It'll hurt, since we'll cauterize with electricity.

Vim] ..

Why'd you poke your nose into their business?

You might be proud of it,

but don't go around saying you predicted the kidnappefs call.

The oops at Jungbu will drag you in if they find out.

You believe that Eun-joo is still alive, too'?

Emit-ska

that the criminal never does

anything bad to Eun-joo.

Hello?

Hello, this is Joong-san, sir.

Oh, it's you.

So did you start working for Congressman Son'?

I'm... taking time off from that for a while

and going to Seoul looking urgently for a kid.

I'm calling on my way up to say hello.

Why are you still looking for the dead girl'?

Pardon'?

I got her birthdate too a month ago.

Don't waste your time on useless work.

Concentrate on self-cu ltivation!

Wont-s 'Mimi-s

Mimi-s

I'm sorry, it's not in my place to say this,

- but my reading of her destiny... - Enough! Gotta go.

AUGUST 18 YEOUIDO SIBUM APT

Oh, puppy!

Eun-jods father called the head of the National Police in Seoul,

William a a: Metropolitan

The director was a nervous wreck explaining it all to superiors.

H??? begging pleading, {haying

So just follow Head Suh's orders and keep quiet!

This is our temporary headquarters

when we have a special case.

The Seoul team includes top personnel from each district.

Welcome.

[I'm QM] Jung-hak.

Wm [Klimt-await

Bang Ji-hwan from Susan.

We've never worked with a regional team before.

You can use the desks here.

[Ea

The real Chief Inspector!

Mama

[I'm QM] Jung-hak.

Oh, I've heard lots about you.

Me too.

You're enthusiastic, as I heard.

What does he think he's doing'? Shooting a film'?

Be warned that radio lines can get jammed,

since there are many broadcasters here

and the North has been sending strong jamming signals recently.

Due to line-of-sight limits,

Busan team and detective Gong communicate via channel 'l,

and Jungbu team, use channel 6 to transfer received messages

to the Seoul team nearby.

What's the case this time'?

Don't play dumb!

I know that you set up headquarters here

for big investigations.

You'd better shut the fuck up.

[Hum

Here it is.

Thais

What the fuckl?

How come there's no fried egg on top!'?

What fried egg'?

It doesn't come with that.

Mum a?

you put this tiny quail egg'?

Hello?

It's me. Have you eaten?

Course.

Where are you'? The connection is bad.

I'm in Seoul now.

Seoul?

- You in trouble again? - Goddammit.

I'm working!

Then you shouldve told me you're going...

Did you bung enough underwear'?

I'm too busy to talk. Put Sung-hen on. Now.

Sung-hen!

Hey, Sung-ham!

Hurry and pick up the phone.

[Hall

Dad.

Sung-hen.

Do you know what kind of snack Eun-joo likes?

Snack?

She likes sweet jelly sticks.

Sweet jelly sticks?

We'll divide into two groups once the aunt goes out.

The Seoul team, waiting at each assigned spot

mum; m;

The Busan team will wait by the apartment

and then tail the aunt, keeping a 100m distance.

Busan team, be sure to disguise yourselves thoroughly,

and don't get too close to the contact point.

- They wanna catch him themselves. - Detective Gong, stay at the apartment

and signal the Busan team when the aunt goes out.

What if he takes the money and runs'?

If the kidnapper sees the Busan team,

he'll know the police are involved.

What should we do if he comes without the girl,

grabs the money, and rushes off

Maw

Then what's your idea'?

The Seoul team stakes out the contact point,

and these female officers follow the aunt on foot

while the Busan team follows her in a car with a Seoul plate

making sure they don't show their faces.

Then they can back you up if anything happens.

Has anyone from the Busan team lived in Seoul?

Seem is much bigger than Susan

and we can't even cover Yeouido district with this much men.

Let's discuss it in detail

when the kidnapper calls again.

He needs money after all.

Eun-jods alive, right'?

Never mind.

By the way, did you get a response?

What time will he call tomorrow?

IlfifilflML

Thank you. Then I'll go to sleep.

or we'll get her back safe'?

What if he doesn't call'?

I think my idea is at least worth a try.

And I guess you could've at least tried to call us.

WEE payphones.

Well, in my opinion,

since we've identified the kidnappefs car,

there's no reason to continue the operation in Seoul.

Although he's physically in Seoul, we're the official team.

So it'd be better to lure him back to Busan

Minimum.

What the fuck'?

You've been useless on this case so far,

and now that we have an outline of the suspect...

imam'?

You selfish morons!

Would you do that if someone grabbed your kid'?

Don't take pictures!

Why are you taking them'?

Do you have any idea who asked me to handle this case'?

Nb,

Based past experience,

is it realistic to believe that the kid

is still alive'?

You saw the picture!

Which was sent 2 weeks ago'?

WE kidnapper FE?

And she didn't look scared at all. She's definitely alive.

At least for now.

Midnight tonight,

the montage of the kidnapper will be distributed nationwide.

WEE?

The Director General of National Police approved it.

It really is time to turn the case public.

Are you fucking insane?

What about the kid'?

All you want is the kidnapper'?

Detective Yoo Sang-gi from Busan Seobu Station

has been taken to Internal Affairs.

He's charged with assault

and accepting bribes.

WEE?

An anonymous letter

madman; mm

Chief!

A call from the producer at MBC.

Th? broadcasting ma?

You can lose that costume now.

What happens to all dead bugs on the ground'?

That's already spilt milk. No use talking to Yoo.

The bus attendant saw Chil-sung pickpocketing,

so he followed her home and slashed her face tan/ice.

She's only eighteen!

She'll live with that scar the rest of her life!

Alright, then. That's your excuse for assault.

But did you or didn't you receive money'?

We always help someone get Officer of the Month.

It's an old practice, how could they...

Did you or didn't you take it'?

I did.

Leave for Busan first thing tomorrow.

You're officially off this case.

If we don't find her by sunrise, we'll find a corpse!

We can't let 33 days pass!

Whit-shag,

Go where?

Even if one of them is in the mountain,

first go to the construction site in the east.

You'll only get her back alive if it's near water!

Eun-joo has much steel in her fate so it's easily buried in sand,

and her fate clashes with Chief See's,

since he also has too much steel.

But the steel can be cleansed if it meets pure water.

Today is the 33rd day since the kidnapping.

One 3 means 'eastj

the other means 'woodf and today they become water.

So today's the only...

What'? What's wrong?

You'd better out the crap.

Whafll you do if we can't find her'?

Aren't we doing all this to find her'?

Sure, all you do is sit inside and pray,

and put this crap in my shoes. Huh'?

You're blessed if you're right,

but take no responsibility if wrong?

WEE?

Look.

It's detectives who catch criminals, not fortunetellers.

Bullshit

or smooth talk is no use at all!

WEBER

I put my everything into this!

Everything? What

You ain't got much to begin with.

Snap out of it.

I know how miserable your life is.

And you'? Are you so well off'?

WEE?

All daylong you scream at people,

thinking ma:

So everyone resents you

you're completely alone!

You prick!

If it weren't for your bullshit I'd...

What you said about me is 100% correct.

It's all true...

I've been such a self-centered moron, thinking I was the best.

Now look at me.

You really can see things.

Fortuneteller!

In today's world, pursuing this kind of thing?

Just makes you into a fool.

Whatever I speak out loud, it won't change a damn thing.

But even if I am wrong this time,

my llama

to my teacher,

and if my family loses everything due to my incompetence,

there's just one thing left for me.

Conviction.

That's all I've got now.

Puppy mm.

Whit-s

Thank you so much.

No problem. Good night, mefam!

Excuse me, is there a river nearby?

No, it's just that the sewers lead to the river.

Then, where's the construction site'?

Do all the drains reach the river'?

Sure, all the nearby sewers lead to the river.

Is that so'?

I will go to the construction site with Mr. Bae and driver Chun

Walkman-a

Why a construction site'?

Mmm [Ea

[hm m;

If the abductor had hurt Eun-joo already,

it would've been the construction site where there's much sand.

If she's still alive, we could definitely find her somewhere near water.

Huh?

What the heck is it'?

Hello.

Who are you'?

I am Eun-jods relative,

Elm

Her aunt was too scared to come.

Did you bring the money'?

Sure, of course. I got the money.

Give me a sign after putting it in the bag.

Then I'll tell you where she is.

She's somewhere in this site.

I'll tell you the exact location after checking the money.

Where is that son of a bitch'?

Here's your money, now tell me where!

Tell me!

She's in that container!

WEE?

Hay,

HEM"

Eun-joo! Are you there?

MIT.

Chm-ho!

Kim'?

Hey...

are you okay'?

M...

“Em

the girl dies.

You shouldn't speed in the dark!

Security guard?

You rushed out so quickly, I didn't see you.

I'm sorry.

[Ea m... Wham...

Look at my bike, it's all mangled.

I'm really sorry.

Shit, whafll I do with my bike'?

Get off.

Damn it!

Don't beat him!

Pull out the key!

Pull out the key!

Mamas

...Es

Where is she, you bastard!

WEE?

I was just told to get the cash. I do the delivery.

Don't lie to us. We know that you took her.

Believe me.

I'm just doing the delivery like I was told.

- Words won't work on him. - No, don't!

You asshole.

Talk to us, bastard. Where is she'?

Or you're dead meat. Son of a bitch!

Let go of him... Take it easy.

All right.

How about this'?

As long as the kid's alive, we'll let you have the money.

You run off wherever you want.

We don't care if the police get you, we just want her back.

We're her relatives.

He works for her daddy.

Mama.

.LL..

Talking

Do we look like police'?

Then why don't we have guns or handcuffs?

If we were police, backups would be rushing in by now.

[Ham

Just give her back to us.

Gosh...

I] sorry

but I really don't know

what's.

Damn you...

Born on 12th of May, 1940

Think about it.

Once we turn you in to the police now,

we can't do anything for you.

Use your brain, dumb-ass!

- Don't do that! - Look ahead!

See'? If you turn left at the next intersection,

there's the temporary investigation office.

We'll find Eun-joo sooner or later,

but once you get in there, you're done for.

You get that'?

Mir. Mm...

[Eat-s ,,

isn't it'?

Actually...

I'm a fortuneteller.

That's why...

I can see Eun-joo is alive, and why you're doing this.

But you know what'?

Even if you support your mother with money you earn this way,

it will only bring her greater sickness.

How do I know if you're really relatives?

Listen.

Like he said now,

you got Eun-joo new clothes,

and sweet jelly sticks that her mom never allowed.

We know you treat her well, why call the police'?

We can give you money, her dad has tons of it.

Eun-joo!

Eun-joo! Don't come to him.

- Uncle!

Are we caught by the creditors'?

No, they're not creditors.

They' re the cops.

Eun-joo, come here. It's all right now.

- It's okay, don't cry. - Eun-joo, you poor thing.

You see, she's okay. Please let me go.

No way. But, where's the other guy'?

What'? I did it myself.

He told me he was going to end it

since he was so tired of all this, too.

He even said he's relieved.

But...

wasn't there an accomplice?

It seems you got that part wrong.

He said it was a one man job.

Why would he lie, instead of sharing the sin

'WEE accomplice?

But what's the big deal'? You got most of it right!

If my back didn't hurt,

I'd carry you on my shoulders all the way to Busan!

BUS-AN P©LI©E HEADQUARTERS

Be careful what you say in front of the chief director.

Sergeant Gong (EH-yang, reporting.

Nice work.

You put in a great effort.

Sit down.

Yes, sir!

National Police Headquarters called to ask me some questions.

Although Chief Yoo gave me his side of details...

Give me the details of the arrest.

I heard it was the joint operation of nine detectives.

So who was in charge?

M; m; Manama

But if you keep it secret,

you shouldve done it right.

When I was assigned to the case,

things were already ugly between the father

- and the Jungbu team... - Have you...

ever cooperated with Jungbu team before'?

No, sir. This was my first time.

But you were both on the scene at the time of arrest'?

First, I saw the kidnapper fleeing by car and...

struggled to stop him... grabbing his neck...

then...

Be open with me. Only the two of us will know, anyway.

I was dragged about 20-30 meters...

And it's true that I stopped him and pulled him out of the car.

Imam...

Guess it was about five or six of them...

I can't be sure as it was quite hectic.

We were onto him together.

It was Kim, not Baek who found the girl!

You have to verify facts when writing an article!

How come you wrote such lies in the paper?

We checked the facts. We even called to Seoul.

Baek confirmed himself that he foretold her return.

I gotta go!

Baek didn't... Is he nuts'?

What about him'?

He called to congratulate me.

Praised me for doing a good job.

- What did the doctor say'? - He says it's okay. Let's go.

- Bring the snacks! - But it's pouring!

Are you okay if I propose to the chiefs

under the condition that you're excluded from promotion'?

Is that clear'?

Yes... that would do.

" Dad! ' SanQ-gi!

- The baby'? - It was born.

Is it a boy'?

Kim, listen...

I want to get things straight about your contribution.

I'll meet Eun-jods parents if I have to,

and set the record straight. Just wait.

No, that's fine! I'm okay.

Honestly, I'm a human being too

and I'd be lying if I said I'm not disappointed.

But even so,

my teacher got rewarded for his student's deeds.

What are you talking about? We can't leave things this way!

The girl came back alive. That's what matters.

Quickly!

Look at the marbles!

' Sung-hen! - Eun-joo!

Thanks.

Stop that!

Eun-joo's mom filed a petition for your promotion to headquarters.

She said you're the one who caught the suspect.

Jung-min, hold your mom's hand.

Detective Gong earned a series of special promotions like Kim foretold.

He retired as senior superintendent after working in the field till the end,

despite National Poiice Headquarters' proposal to appoint him commissioner.

Kim raised his three daughters impeccably

and he's stiff cuftfvatfng his body and mind through prayers and fasting in Busan.

178 days since the first abduction, the next spring

Sung Eun-joo was kidnapped again, by two men this time.

Gong and Kim joined forces again

and had her home four days after she was taken.
