IRIS 2

Baek San is still inside.

Don't make me repeat myself. Where is it?

Because one of the nuclear weapons is still in his possession...

Because he's your father.

Isn't that why you're trying to rescue him?

My wish is to maintain the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula forever.

Of course.

If you're willing to trust me... I'll try to help.

I don't trust you.

If you ever fall out of Captain's favor, you are a dead meat.

Kim Yun Hwa has been secretly communicating with Jung Yoo Gun.

Jung Yoo Gun.

People like you and I aren't meant to live long.

Let's settle this today.

Jung Yoo Gun will do anything in order to catch Yoo Joong Won.

Where is he now?

Please stop it now.

You'll have to witness your loved ones getting hurt and dying because of you.

Even with your own death...

you won't be able to atone for the sins you've committed.

Episode 18

How are you feeling?

You passed out as soon as you came in.

You were out for... about 20 hours.

By any chance... is Joong Won...

Yoo Joong Won and Park Tae Hee showed up later.

And unfortunately, they're still alive.

- Was there a call for me? - Not just one.

Your phone was ringing every ten minutes. It's not like I could answer or anything.

[Choi Min]

Thank you so much for coming in person.

I'm Goo Gong Gil the Presidential Chief of Staff.

I'm Anthony Choi.

We'll escort you from here.

I wonder whether it was the right decision to choose a multinational corporation like Jeron?

It ranks top three in the world in the defense industry.

The company seems very clean on paper also.

Still... its headquarters are in the U.S.

They might see through our intentions.

I'm concerned that the U.S. government might find out about our nuclear weapons.

That's not likely.

However, even if they figure out our intention...

luckily, Anthony Choi, the CEO of Jeron is Korean-American.

That's also the reason we chose Jeron over the first and second ranked corporations.

Do you think it'll be okay?

He's arrived.

Please have him come in.

Nice to meet you.

It's an honor to meet you.

I'm Anthony Choi.

How may I help you?

Alone? You weren't hurt?

Yes, I'm fine.

How is Soo Yun?

She was discharged from the hospital and returned to work.

Actually, Seo Hyun Woo has been injured more.

Hyun Woo was?

Yoon Shi Hyuk has been confirmed as the spy.

During the transport, he disappeared after causing six casualties including Seo Hyun Woo.

How is Hyun Woo doing?

He received a gunshot wound on his abdomen

but the surgery went well and he's recovering now.

Team Leader Jung.

I need to talk to you in person.

I'll text you the location and the time.

The nuclear bomb that fell on Hiroshima 68 years ago killed about 200,000 people.

The nuclear bomb detonated in Hiroshima was in the 16 kiloton class.

In order to help your understanding...

one kiloton equals the explosive power of 1000 ton of TNT.

In other words, you can say about 16,000 ton of TNT exploded all at once in Hiroshima.

Then after 68 years, I'm sure the technology has advanced quite a bit.

What's the scale of it now?

Hypothetically, if a one megaton level strategic nuclear warhead...

were detonated in Seoul, about 10 to 12 million people would be killed.

We approximate about 80 to 90 percent of the buildings would be destroyed.

Indeed... it really is an incredible scale.

In Seoul's case...

because of the city's high population density and many high-rise buildings...

the damage can be great.

You can't even compare this to Hiroshima.

If you compare it that way, you may think so but...

if the nuclear bomb dropped in Hiroshima were denoted in Seoul now...

there would be more than one to 1.3 million people killed.

The nuclear bombs have rather simple structures.

Even after 30 years, if the detonator functions correctly...

the bomb could be used at any time.

Is that right?

But Mr. President...

To me, it sounds like you already have...

30 year old nuclear warheads in your possession.

No. Where would we get a hold of something like that all of a sudden?

If you consider Korea's latent potential in nuclear technology...

you'd be able to produce a warhead in just a few months.

Rather than relying on the assistance of the allies in denuclearization...

I'd like for us to pursue becoming a nuclear nation someday.

Why do you want that?

Ever since the North has announced their nuclear program in 2005...

they've been making all kind of threats to coerce us into giving them economic aid.

The four or six party talks were all but an excuse.

Ultimately, their goal was money and economic support.

Therefore, rather than relying on the allies for the defense of this country...

I'd like to establish an independent defense structure

so that a normal diplomacy can be carried out between the North and the South.

Ironically, most South Koreans have become insensitive to the status of their security...

due to the North's frequent rhetorics and false threats.

If a cornered North Korea indeed detonates a bomb in Seoul...

even if we win the war, what could that victory mean to us?

Would you be able to help revive our halted nuclear program for the good of this country?

This is a very sensitive internal matter.

Please give me some time to think about it.

I hope you don't think that you're under pressure.

Stop the car.

This is Yoo Joong Won.

I'm not sure how many, but I think it's true that

Baek San handed over nuclear weapons to the South Korean government.

Then, there's no way to secure the nuclear weapons anymore?

Leave that up to me and regroup your team for now.

We are short on weapons and operatives.

We've been discovered, so we also need a new hideout.

I text you the location to meet. I'll talk to you there.

Have you come to South Korea?

Is there something wrong?

Mr. Black is in South Korea.

We need to join him for now.

Captain. Do we have to...

Park Tae Hee.

Head that way.

You heard everything from Phillip, right?

I did, but I still can't believe it.

Did you really acquire four nuclear weapons just overnight?

The President intends to use those weapons to try to make us into a nuclear nation.

For the future of South Korea, I need to stop that.

Will you be okay?

Yes, I've made up my mind.

Okay, then.

What would like to order?

What kind of alcohol do you want?

Alcohol?

I'm all set.

Man... just for something like that.

We'd like a bottle of soju and just give us some appetizers.

Yes.

You can drink?

I'm not like how I used to be, but I can still hold my liquor.

Soju, it's been such a long time.

Here.

Soju, it's been such a long time.

What are you doing?

You don't know anything. Soju taste much better like this.

That's enough.

Cheers.

What are you laughing at?

You think I'm funny?

Yeah, you are.

Soju is good because it doesn't give you a bad hangover.

Do you know why I like soju?

How would I know that?

Because it doesn't give you a hangover.

When I go outside all dressed up...

ten people will pass me.

When I look back... I see 15 people looking at me.

I'm like, that kind of woman.

Oh, yeah... is that right?

I've never met anyone who boasts about holding their liquor that actually can.

- Hey, waiter. - Yes.

Did you add water into this soju?

Water?

Oh, no way.

Then why is it so bland? I'm not getting drunk.

Sir, I think your girlfriend has had enough for the night.

Who are you calling drunk?

Bring me a new bottle.

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

Ah, okay. Thank you.

What a strange guy.

I was just starting to feel it.

That's enough.

You know...

Mr. Jung Yoo Gun.

Do you hate Joong Won that much?

What do you want to say?

Do you have to kill him to get your mother's revenge?

Then Joong Won and I...

Who should we take our revenge on?

It's not like I can kill all the North Korean military hard-liners.

Joong Won was a really good son to his mother.

Do you know how much he chased me around?

Do you really have to kill him?

If Joong Won dies...

I'm going to be... a widow.

You successfully escaped the NSS.

What happened to your leg?

You may use any rooms on the first floor.

What about Mr. Black?

We're going to have to get along for the time being.

Let's not waste our time on useless quarrels.

You're here.

Why did you want to see me?

You said you met with Baek San.

Can you tell me where Baek San is now?

Now is not a good time.

The last of the nuclear weapons Baek San has...

if we don't take care of it soon, innocent people may have to pay a big price.

He probably won't use it like that.

Then where does he intend to use it?

He intends to use it as bait to capture Mr. Black.

I want to... believe what he said.

Mr. President and Director Kang think we should arm ourselves with nuclear weapons.

Do you also feel that way?

I'm not sure.

Under normal circumstances, I would have agreed with the denuclearization.

But at a time when the North is unwilling to give up their nuclear program...

I have to wonder if insisting on denuclearization on our own, has any meaning.

You'll see that nuclear weapons will turn the earth's clock back to the Stone Age.

So I'm going to hand over those four nuclear weapons...

So what I mean is, Yoo Joong Won nor IRIS

should never get a hold of the last remaining nuclear weapons.

I understand.

That's the reason... that I'm still alive.

- Can I ride it? - Of course.

What is it this time?

This is the hard drive that Baek San used to use at the NSS.

Let me know what's in this hard drive.

You can only get the content through to the NSS's main server.

Ever since Director Kang returned, things have been a little different at the NSS.

You are treated like Yoo Joong Won as far as the priority on the wanted list goes.

I won't be putting you in an awkward spot after this.

I'm sorry about everything.

And...

Damn!

Don't even think about doing anything funny.

We'll no longer treat you as the former A Team leader.

Director Kang Chul Hwan has given permission to use firearms.

I know you were very close to Representative Kwon.

The unification of the North and the South...

Please help us out.

The unification will happen without you worrying about it.

Let me finish up that plan.

How are you going to do that?

Soon, I'll be able to secure a nuclear bomb.

As soon as I have the bomb...

I'll detonate it at the Gwanghwamun in front of the U.S. Embassy in Seoul.

At the same time, you should march south to occupy major footholds.

Captain Yoo Joong Won... can I trust you on this?

The unification of the North and the South...

is like my life.

Then try it. But...

we'll be following the timeline according to our unification plan.

So you'd better hurry.

Yes, I'll keep that in mind.

It's been a long time.

It's been three years since I saw you last.

It's been that long already?

What about Yoo Joong Won?

He's been waiting for you.

Tell him to come and have a cup of coffee.

Have a seat.

I'm just coming back from the Presidential House now.

It might be easy to get nuclear weapons in our hands.

Are you sure?

Do you know where...

I intend to use those nuclear weapons?

Aren't you planning a full-scale war?

No matter which side wins, with all the war munitions...

you'd leave an astronomical figure in profit.

If your country wins...

I'll be able to get all the uranium mines in the North as well.

Of course.

If we could only secure one nuclear weapon... how would you use it?

Of course, I'd detonate it in the South's capital Seoul.

With that as a start, the army of the Republic will march down south.

A signal to a unification war.

If the plan becomes successful...

your country will have to elect a new leader for the unified Korea.

That's the blueprint I've been drafting with IRIS's headquarters.

When that happens... I can make you a pretty high position.

I'll definitely make it successful.

Captain.

Did it not go well with Mr. Black?

Does it matter whether it went well or not?

We are together to prey on each other anyway.

As you said, someday we'll end up getting eaten by them.

Captain.

Don't try to make a big deal out of what's been decided already.

- I do have plans. - This might put you in danger.

I'm doing this risking my life.

If I were afraid of losing my life, that means I'm not doing my job right.

I'll be back soon.

Your wound hasn't healed, yet. It'd be too much.

It'd be nice to sit and wait but...

unfortunately, time is not on our side.

I'll escort you.

No, I'm just going to look at the place and come back.

Don't follow me.

Team Leader Ji.

The thing is...

Byung Jin went outside and was brought back in by Internal Affairs.

Internal Affairs?

I don't know the details, but it was an order from Section Chief Hwang.

Did you confirm it with your own eyes?

- Yes. - And this...

What's this?

It's agent Kang Byung Jin's belonging.

I think he received it from Jung Yoo Gun.

Good work. You can go now.

I was going to call for you anyway.

What's going on with agent Kang Byung Jin?

Kang Byung Jin was discovered helping Jung Yoo Gun.

He's currently in our custody.

Team Leader Jung?

Jung Yoo Gun...

is neither a Team Leader nor an NSS agent anymore.

He's just a criminal we need to capture.

Do you have anything more to say?

I'll interrogate agent Kang Byung Jin.

Okay. You can go.

[Ji Soo Yun]

If you heard from him, you should have let me know first.

Then things wouldn't have turned out this way.

He made me swear not to tell you about him.

Team Leader Jung did?

I think he was doing that because he was worried about you.

He knew you were kidnapped by Yoo Joong Won.

I told him you're fine and unharmed.

Did he say anything else?

About Baek San or the nuclear weapons?

What is it?

He mentioned something, saying that he couldn't judge the situation.

He asked me to follow Deputy Director Choi Min's movements.

Deputy Director? Why?

I'm not sure.

We'll soon be receiving an order from the Presidential House.

You want us to move all the nuclear weapons to the K6...

you mean to Camp Humphrey?

Yes.

If you want to keep the promised timeline, you'd better hurry.

Yes.

[Agency for Defense Development]

Tune into the frequency I told you earlier.

We're leaving, now.

I have something I need to report to you, Director.

Oh, what is it?

Deputy Director is moving the four nuclear weapons to a different location.

- What? - A different location?

I just finished talking to the Agency for Defense Development.

They confirmed that she just left.

- With all four of them? - Yes.

I'm in charge of those nuclear weapons.

Without my permission, where is she moving them to?

To Camp Humphrey.

Deputy Director intends to...

hand them over to the U.S. Army.

Mobilize a unit to stop her now!

Recover those weapons to the original location.

As soon as you find her, arrest her and bring her back here.

From this moment on, Choi Min is relieved of her position.

- Go now! - Yes.

Director...

What are you doing?

That's what I should be asking you.

This is not a situation you should get involved in.

No, it doesn't matter how those nuclear weapons are going to be used.

But my job is to stop the unauthorized transport of those nuclear weapons.

You've gone too far, Deputy Director.

Possessing nuclear weapons without the approval from the allies

means breaking our alliance with the U.S..

Are you a Korean or an American?

I'm neither a Korean nor an American at this moment.

I'm only a person who wants to prevent a disaster that's imminent to our future.

How long do you want to rely on the allies for our national security?

Once we become a nuclear nation...

we don't have to play the North's stupid games.

Do you really think the best way to prevent a war

is to arm ourselves with nuclear weapons?

Whether it's for the best or not...

that's not for you to decide.

You tried to hand over these weapons without the President's authorization

to another country's military unit.

From this moment on, you've become a traitor forever.

Yes.

This is Ha Seung Jin.

I had no idea you'd act so recklessly without talking to me about it at all.

Mr. President. You may regret this moment forever.

It was a decision made as the head of the state after giving it much thought.

I won't hold you accountable for anything.

But you'd better return to the Pentagon.

Put the gun down.

The trucks will return to the Agency for Defense Development.

Please go back.

I'll escort you back.

Wait for me outside.

I'm sorry, Deputy Director.

No, you don't have to feel that way.

I still believe my judgment was correct.

Even though I failed...

the nuclear armament of this country...

will lead to a nuclear arms race in the entire Northeast Asia.

A war could begin over a real trivial matter.

Nuclear weapons can make us lose everything with a single mistake.

Yes, I don't disagree with your thoughts on this.

It's just that...

I had to be faithful to my duty.

Yes, I just don't want you to misunderstand me.

Because I have a dual-citizenship...

don't think that I'm on the U.S. side to stop the nuclear armament of South Korea.

- At least I don't want you to. - Yes.

Team Leader Ji.

You trust Jung Yoo Gun, right?

What?

The only person who can help Jung Yoo Gun from now on is you.

Jung Yoo Gun is not in a normal condition due to the injury to his head.

That's why he may be keeping his distance from you.

He believes the people close to him are going to be in danger or get hurt because of him.

What happen to his mother and your brother...

he blames himself for it.

There is a number that isn't stored in the phone Director Kang Chul Hwan took.

That's Jung Yoo Gun's cellphone number.

After much time has passed...

there might be a day people would finally understand me.

When that time comes, come and visit me in the States.

Yes.

And...

you'll be repatriated in Washington D.C. after the 9pm flight tonight.

It was decided faster than I expected.

Before I leave, would it be okay to stop by my office?

I have many things to organize.

I'll make sure you can do that.

Thank you.

It's me Team Leader Jung.

Yes.

I'll be returning to the States on a flight tonight.

Don't you regret it?

I told you. The justice I believe in is the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

Thank you for everything and you've worked really hard.

While you were working with me...

you went through so many hardships and suffering.

And you were the best agent I've ever worked with in the U.S. and Korea combined.

Don't forget to take care of yourself.

Thank you so much for...

trusting me always.

And Team Leader Jung.

If everyone has their own idea of justice...

I think your father sacrificed himself for the justice he believes in.

Be good to Ji Soon Yun.

I wish you two a happy life together.

This is Ji Soo Yun.

Hello?

Soo Yun. It's me.

Are you doing well?

Yes.

You're doing well, too, right?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Director Kang Chul Hwan called just a moment ago.

He told me about Deputy Director Choi Min.

Where are you now?

Let's meet. Let's meet and talk.

Before that... I have a favor to ask.

What is it? Tell me.

There was a hard drive I asked Byung Jin to analyze.

Byung Jin is...

He was arrested right after you met with him.

I heard.

But fortunately, I don't think the Director is aware of the existence of the hard drive.

I think Section Chief Hwang has it.

There is information about IRIS and Baek San in that hard drive.

You need to get it back.

Be careful.

Hi.

It's me. I found it.

I'm sorry that I had to ask you to do this.

Don't say that.

Let's meet today. Let's meet and talk.

- Okay, and also... - Yes.

I heard Hyun Woo has been injured.

Take good care of him.

I will. I'll see you later.

Seems like it's been a while since you last talked to her.

How come you look like that?

Men are always like this.

They always do things they're going to feel sorry about later.

Where are you going? You're not even well.

I'm going to get some fresh air.

I'll come with you.

Am I freed now?

No, we're just going to move you.

This has no added sugar. It'll be good toasted.

Thank you.

How are you feeling?

Fine, thank you for everything.

I haven't done much.

I'd like a bowl of soup and a cup of coffee please.

Yes, sure.

If you eat that, you'll be freed.

I know you're disappointed in me.

You know in this field...

we often have to do things we don't want to do.

I'm not going to say sorry.

When I heard it from someone else, it didn't make me feel all that great.

I want you... to just trust me.

That I'm trusting you as a colleague.

That I'll be there for you when you're going through tough times.

Please just trust me.

Just as you've done so far.

Okay?

Finish it before I detain you again.

Okay.

Is it good?

Why did you come in here?

Are you going to buy clothes?

How can I help you?

The men's section is over there.

No.

Ah, are you looking for your girlfriend's clothes?

Please come this way.

You were going to buy my clothes?

Yeah, look around and pick one you want.

What do you think about this?

You still don't know my taste?

I always want black. Real chic like this.

I think this looks nice.

What do you think about this?

Because it's black?

Let's go.

Clothes all of a sudden?

Is today some special day?

Since I owe you a lot...

For something like that...

[Yoon Shi Hyuk]

Yoon Shi Hyuk.

Seo Hyun Woo.

Where are you now?

Well, I wonder where...

Hey, Hyun Woo.

Because of the bullets I got from you, my butt is still hurting.

You know that?

Yeah. This is Team Leader Ji.

Can you trace the location of the call Seo Hyun Woo just received now?

It's urgent.

I always return what I get from others.

I'll return your bullets three times over.

You should look forward to it.

Where are you now?

Did you find him?

Yes.

Where is it?

- It's your place. - What?

Yes, Soo Yun.

Yoon Shi Hyuk called.

He was traced back to Hyun Woo's place.

I'll head over that way now.

Be careful since it might be a trick.

He was definitely here not too long ago.

I wonder why he was here.

He's trying to get back at me.

It's an honor to meet you. I'm Anthony Choi.

How may I help you?

What are you doing?

From this moment on, you've become a traitor forever.

If we could only secure one nuclear weapon... how would you use it?

Of course, I'd detonate it in the South's capital Seoul.

With that as a start, the army of the Republic will march down south.
