Ma Jin Seok may be on to us.

If we fail...

If we don't succeed,

we'll be all dead, so...

I heard you are looking for a part-timer.

Yes, we are.

Yes... Yes, we are.

You're looking for a telemarketer, right?

Yes... Kind of.

Are you here for the part-time job?

Yes.

Here's the contract. Have a look.

You're so pretty.

- Would you like some tea? - Hey, you...

Well... Can you get us some coffee?

- Coffee? - Yes.

Do you like green tea or coffee?

- Green tea... - Green tea.

Can you get us two green teas?

Green tea. Okay.

Don't work here.

Pardon?

I'm a part-timer here too.

I came here because I heard the pay would be good.

I mean, the pay is good.

But...

I'm quitting soon.

So,

don't work here.

I'll...

I'll introduce you to another job.

Shoot.

Stay still.

We've called an ambulance. It should be here soon.

Sir.

Can you help him first?

Okay.

Are you okay?

(Squad 38)

Hello.

(Episode 5)

Hi, Honey.

What's going on?

The date has been set for Chief.

Disciplinary Committee.

(Chief Baek Sung Il, Taxation Office Division Three)

(Chun Sung Hee)

There's no car today.

Isn't this usually jammed?

I know.

We picked the lucky day.

It won't even take an hour to Hwaseong.

Why don't you slow down a bit?

You're supposed to go below 60km per hour.

The alarm keeps going off.

You're driving too fast. I feel sick.

(Buy some time.)

(Buy some time.)

I'm sorry. I'll need to go to the restroom.

What?

I'm kind of desperate.

I'm almost losing it.

Can I go? Please?

What should I do?

What is it?

It's me.

Shoot.

Car theft. Car theft.

A white saloon. 32-R-6745.

32-R-6745.

It will get on Seohaean Expressway. Stay alert.

Get them before they get on the expressway.

This little...

Hey.

You are not stalling for time, are you?

I'm starting to doubt you.

Mr Baek.

What are you talking about?

If by any chance...

you are lying to me,

I won't let it slide.

Okay?

You will be in trouble...

if you make me upset.

Do you understand?

Gosh.

I don't know what you are talking about.

Siheung junction, overpass 48.

Siheung junction, overpass 48.

What's that?

32-R-6745. Pull up the car.

What is that?

Darn it.

What's going on?

I think they want you to pull over.

6745, pull up the car.

- 32-R-6745. Pull up the car. - Gosh.

Shoot.

- What? - Excuse me.

Can I see your ID?

What's wrong?

The car is reported stolen.

The car you are driving.

What?

This car is stolen?

I'm speechless.

Show me your ID, Sir.

This is ridiculous.

What if it's not stolen?

- Sorry? - What would you do?

Show me your ID.

What is going on?

Ma Jin Seok, 700522-1022687.

Please step out of the car.

Why?

As I told you, the car you are in was reported stolen.

You are being ridiculous.

Hey. Are you sure it's stolen?

Are you sure?

(Where are you now?)

(Yang Jung Do)

Hello?

I'm out on business now.

I will get on Seohaean Expressway in five minutes.

Okay.

Gosh.

I've driven this car for years. Why would it be reported?

This is obstruction of justice.

- You may receive... - Why is it obstruction of justice?

I stepped down from the car and gave you my ID.

Mr Ma, calm down.

- Step aside. - Stop it.

Get off me.

Sir, your car is reported stolen...

Who reported that?

Tell me. Who did?

Come to the police station with me.

- Why would I go there? - Please calm down.

Stay out of it.

Hey, come here.

What is going on?

Well...

Which police station do you work at?

What nonsense is this?

I need you to come to the station with me.

Where do you work?

Say it.

Is it?

It's 6475, not 6745?

I can't believe this. How could you make such a stupid mistake?

Okay. Bye.

I'm sorry, Sir.

It seems there was a misunderstanding.

I'm sorry to have bothered you.

You may go now.

Do your job right...

if you don't want to be fired.

I'm sorry, Sir.

Do you understand?

- Say it. - I'm sorry, Sir.

What are you doing there? Get in the car.

Okay.

Drive safely.

Tell the chairman about the distribution matter...

in exact detail as I told you.

It is a big deal.

Okay.

By the way,

Ms Noh.

I heard you pulled out of Jung Do's business.

I didn't want to join him to begin with.

That young guy was too suspicious.

The police are after him.

I can't believe this. Are you the same person I knew?

You refuse to follow Chairman Wang's order because you're afraid.

Time has taken its toll on you.

Don't you think?

Mr Kim.

The thing you told me before.

You told me that Yang Jung Do saved the chairman's life.

- What does that mean? - Ms Noh.

What if I tell you the truth?

Will you go back to Jung Do and help him?

It is true that Jung Do saved the chairman's life.

He saved the chairman's life twice.

Yang Jung Do did.

Hello? We are almost there.

Okay. I'm ready.

I will be there soon.

Bye.

He asks where we are.

I think he must be busy.

- We are almost there. - Okay.

Darn it.

(City Development Division One, Team Leader Kim Sang Pil)

(Kim Sang Pil, 3251, 010-0652-8957)

Hello?

Hello, could you please move your car?

Sure. I'll be right out.

(City Development Division, Min Chang Ki)

(City Development Division, Jang Mi Young)

Is it here?

Let's go.

Gosh...

Oh, just a moment. No, it's okay. Let's go.

Gosh, what's this now?

Your team leader isn't even at his desk.

This team is a complete mess.

Ms Jang.

Your wedding preparation must be keeping you busy.

I get that you're excited about your wedding,

but please be focused when you're at work, all right?

Don't let it affect your work.

- Mr Min. - Yes.

I heard that you drink during your lunch breaks.

Gosh, I'm sorry.

- But by the way... - My goodness.

Where did all of your discipline go?

(City Development Division)

Is this it?

Yes.

You can't walk in there like that.

Wait. Let me handle it.

(City Development Division, Yu Tae Soo)

(Plan for Bongdang New Town, Bongdang Extension Road)

Where did all of your discipline go?

Mr Kim, I'm here.

- Mr Yu. - Yes.

When will you complete the revised plan for Bongdang New Town?

Well, it's...

Goodness, you're taking forever with it.

Finish and submit it as quickly as possible. Got it?

Yes, I will.

- Is it him? - Yes. He's the team leader.

- Sung Il. - Hey.

What took you so long?

I'm sorry.

And you can't just show up out of the blue like this.

I don't even have time to sleep because I'm so swamped these days.

Yes, I can see that.

Anyway...

Is this Mr Ma?

Yes. He's the one who secured the investment for us.

Goodness.

You can't talk about that...

- in front of the staff here. - Oh, right.

- Gosh, I'm sorry. - You do this every time.

- It's nice to meet you. - Likewise.

Well, then...

Let's talk outside.

Sure, let's do that.

We'll wait for you outside. Come and meet us when you're done.

- Okay. - See you.

- I'll wait for you. - I'll be there soon.

Let's go.

I'll see you all later.

- Okay. - All right.

Ms Jang, congratulations on your wedding.

Have a good day.

He's actually younger than I expected.

He looks younger than his age. He's pretty old.

Please have a look around.

The area from there to there...

will be selected as the site for Hwaseong New Town.

The 12 sections starting from the centre...

will probably be managed by the general manager.

This area is where I'll have some authority over.

Mr Baek told me that the return will be five times the investment.

Are you sure of it?

That kind of profitability ratio is hard to achieve in this economy.

Your trust issue is acting up again.

Why can't you be more trusting?

Why did you come all the way here, then?

Well, what I'm saying is that...

I'd like to make sure. It's not a small amount of money.

Don't you agree?

Sung Il.

How much commission did you say you'd take?

- I said 5 percent. - I see, 5 percent.

I'll find someone who will give you 10 percent. Let's not work with him.

Hey, I went through hoops to bring him here.

Why are you being like this?

Sir.

You shouldn't have come here if you wanted a guarantee.

If that's what you want, just save money in your bank account.

Keep saving so that you can live off the interest.

You're obviously here because you want to make a handsome amount...

with a small investment. Are you going to keep trying...

to sound me out and make me uncomfortable?

Hey, stop it.

He doesn't mean it.

Just think...

that you came here to get some fresh air and forget about it.

I have people lined up to invest in this.

There are many good restaurants around here.

Don't leave yet. He probably doesn't mean it.

Please, Sir.

I like you.

He's my type of person.

I like that he's decisive and fiery-tempered.

I know, right?

Look at those eyes. They look so intense!

They do.

All right. So?

How much shall I invest?

Invest 4 million for 8 sections.

The 4 million dollars will turn into 20.

It's a hot investment opportunity.

Gosh, 4 million will turn into 20 million?

That guy is pretty impressive.

Please, Sir.

I like you.

He's my type of person.

I like that he's decisive and fiery-tempered.

I know, right?

Look at those eyes. They look so intense!

They do.

All right. So?

How much shall I invest?

Invest 4 million for 8 sections.

The 4 million dollars will turn into 20.

It's a hot investment opportunity.

Gosh, 4 million will turn into 20 million?

That guy is pretty impressive.

He is, indeed. It sounds great.

Doesn't it?

The location is perfect, too.

Do you really mean it?

Yes.

You want to cover up Ma Jin Seok's case?

Yes.

Why?

To help Mr Baek?

Is that the reason?

Please, Sir.

Mr Baek was suspecting that...

Ma Jin Seok is...

the informant of the bribery.

Do you think the same?

I just know that...

Mr Baek would never take any bribes.

Disciplinary Committee will be held as planned.

Mr Baek will be dismissed.

So...

I don't care if you try to cover up that case.

You can go now.

Sir.

Please go.

Sung Hee.

It's about Disciplinary Committee regarding Sung Il's case.

There's a way to solve it.

- There is? - It's supposed to be secret.

My division used to be in charge of Ma Jin Seok.

Look at this.

Jin Seok has a connection with Bang Pil Gyu.

Some of Jin Seok's hidden money goes back...

to Pil Gyu's son's company,

Woohyang Communications.

Pil Gyu invests his money in Jin Seok,

and then Jin Seok makes it bigger and returns it to Pil Gyu?

Exactly.

Do you know who Pil Gyu has a connection with?

Choi Chul Woo, the former president of Woohyang Group.

Is it the one that was involved in an illegal pyramid scheme?

Yes.

The amount of his taxes in arrears is close to 100 million dollars.

Pil Gyu was Chul Woo's right-hand man.

The amount of his unpaid taxes is around 50 million dollars.

Anyway, they're the two biggest defaulters.

Sung Hee, What I want to say is...

Once Pil Gyu is caught,

Sung Il won't have to be suspended.

How?

There's a way.

Nothing is impossible in this country.

Gosh.

All right.

I'll see you next week, then.

I'll hire a real estate agent and get it sorted out.

He'll get in touch with you.

Thank you.

You're certainly my type of person.

Sung Il, can we have a moment?

- Go ahead. - Please excuse us.

Sure.

Don't let this happen again.

I wasn't expecting this, either.

- You don't look so well. - It's none of your business.

Listen up.

Ma Jin Seok will look up the land on the land registration map.

Okay.

The phishing site is being made right now.

Buy some time for us to plant that site in his computers.

Is that really necessary?

Isn't that land on the land registration map already?

It's another piece of land.

- What? - It's not what I showed him.

What are you talking about?

Hwado-ri 23-1.

It's somewhere else. I showed him another piece of land.

Why?

He's an expert in land.

We couldn't show him just any land.

He wouldn't buy that.

Why didn't you prepare earlier?

Are you blaming me?

It's your fault.

That's why I wanted to meet a few days later.

- Gosh. - Gosh.

Buy more time, no matter what.

Otherwise, we'll all die.

Okay. Stay on standby.

(Jo Mi Joo)

Get ready to deliver it.

I'm on my way now.

Should I drop you off at the city hall?

Yes, but before that...

I'm quite hungry. Aren't you hungry?

Can't we eat?

Gosh. Sure. Let's eat.

That'll be great.

What do you like?

I'm not picky. I like beansprouts.

Should we have some rice with beansprouts?

Let's go.

Mi Joo, how long will it take to get to Jin Seok's office?

About 20 minutes.

Do you want to say something? Go ahead.

Should I?

I've never been on the scene. I'm rather nervous.

Please give me any advice, Ms Jo.

Why do you talk to me in such polite way?

I'm younger than you.

I was born in 1994.

Let me see your ID card.

It's true.

(Identification card, Jung Ja Wang)

Don't call me Ms Jo.

- What should I call you, then? - I'll kill you.

- It's beautiful. - It's so pretty.

- It's pretty, right? - It's really pretty.

- Where did you get it? - My husband bought me.

- Hold on. - It's so pretty.

Hello. I have a delivery for you.

Are you home?

Please leave it at the security office.

- Okay. - Bye.

Are you jealous?

No one is home.

Is that right?

Okay.

Guys.

Get your tools.

Are you kidding me?

This restaurant must be famous.

Thank you.

- Help yourself. - Okay.

The chopsticks are so dirty.

My goodness.

I'm not obsessed, but chopsticks should be clean.

Well, enjoy.

- You too. - Okay.

Gosh. Darn it.

I hate this.

- What's the matter? - The thing is,

even though I love beansprout soup,

I don't eat beansprouts.

Then why did you order it?

I love beansprout soup.

I just don't eat beansprouts.

What are you talking about?

I'm allergic to beansprouts. I can't eat them.

- Are you allergic to them? - Yes.

They make my face swell up.

I didn't know you can be allergic to beansprouts.

Of course, you can. Everybody is different.

Go ahead and eat.

They put so much.

There's so much. There's some down there, too.

My goodness.

Let's go.

Well...

Hello... Hello.

- May I help you? - Hello.

We're from Facilities Management Division of the City.

We're doing a safety check on every building.

Please cooperate.

- Just a moment. - Check it.

Okay.

Hey. How's it going?

I'm here.

Okay.

We can't find any request.

Gosh. It's the third time we're here.

We couldn't meet the person in charge last time either.

- Well... - Sir.

If we don't get to check this time, you'll be disqualified.

Please be quick.

Sure. Thank you.

What do you need?

Where's the computer?

Start eating already.

I'm almost done.

Eat up.

Heavenly Father...

I'll keep eating.

Sure.

I...

I go to church.

Why did you interrupt? Now I have to start over.

Heavenly Father...

You're making me really uncomfortable.

Amen.

- Who are they? - They're from City Hall.

- What for? - Well...

We're checking all private properties.

Private properties? Hang on.

We got checked.

What?

- Did you? - Yes.

Last week.

Did you check before coming here?

Let me see.

(Delete)

(Add bookmark)

(Civil Service 24)

It's done.

Okay, great. Good job.

Are you sure...

you're from City Hall?

Yes, of course.

Okay, then.

Let me call and check.

Excuse me, Sir. Why not just...

Let's not make it harder for us down the line.

Let me check.

- Hello? - Are you done?

Yes, Chief.

Are they clear?

- What's going on? - Oh, really?

They said someone came by to check last week.

Why didn't you confirm sooner?

Okay, we'll return to the office.

Shoot.

Oh dear.

We're really sorry.

Someone messed up on our end. I'm sorry about that.

Bye.

So is there nothing you can do?

Not at the moment.

I'll see what I can do.

- Keep him occupied. - Then...

I'll do it.

What? What do you think you can do?

No, I'll do it. Leave it to me.

Okay. Bye.

Hello, Mr Jo. It's Baek Sung Il from City Hall.

I'm fine, thanks.

I'd like to give you...

a meaty tip.

Can you mobilise a team right now?

It's a large amount. Five million dollars.

5.25 million, to be exact.

This tip came from City Hall.

- Let's do this. - Yes, Sir.

We're from the National Tax Service.

Is Mr Ma Jin Seok in?

He doesn't live here.

I'm sure he doesn't.

- Let's go inside. - You can't.

What is it?

Jin Seok.

It's bad. Get over here.

What?

Darn it.

I'll be right there. I'm nearby.

He left me by the road because he's in a hurry.

Get to it. He'll be there soon.

Okay. Got it.

What are you doing?

You could get into real trouble for this.

Take everything down to the lobby.

Or I'll take you all in for obstruction of justice.

- Okay. - Hurry.

Shoot.

Hak Joo, it's locked.

- What's the password? - That?

I saw it.

What was it?

Hang on...

It was...

That's it.

It can't be.

Who would use such an easy...

I'm in.

Excuse me.

What are you doing right in front of the entrance?

What's going on?

What do you take me for?

Tell me.

It looks like Jung Do will be going back to prison.

Why can't they stop pestering me with taxes?

What did they give me in return?

(Request for Copy of Land Registration Map)

(Hwado-ri)

Here we go.

We're all set. Let me go first.

Hak Joo, team up with me.

I want you to have a broad accent. Which area should you come from?

What about North Chungcheong Province?

Okay. Let's do that.

Mr Park.

Mr Kim.

It's nice to see you.

This is Mr Ma I talked about. This is Mr Park.

- Hello. - It's nice to see you.

It's nice to see you, too.

Mi Joo, find actors to play landowners.

- Okay. - Find amazing actors.

Would any of them...

be interested in being a landowner?

No way.

They're actors. What are you talking about?

We're not interested.

It's already been a year.

Yes.

Yes. It's all settled.

Now that we have the actors,

start with the officially announced land price.

No way.

We farm for a living.

We don't need to farm,

but we're not selling that land.

It's my family's weekend farm.

Just say something.

Good.

To the officially announced price, 212 dollars per pyeong...

add 20 dollars, and give him an okay sign.

232 dollars per pyeong.

I have to go.

Deal!

That's a huge amount of money!

- Now you're talking. - What?

So you can actually speak.

How great!

And then something goes wrong.

What are you talking about?

The landowners found out about the development plan.

They don't want to sell the land any longer.

They say there's no way they're selling that land.

What am I to do now?

I raised all the money. What am I to do?

- Let's offer more money. - What?

Let's offer more money and get that land.

20 million dollars depends on this.

There's no difference between 4 million and 6 million.

Let's focus on the money we'll get out of it.

Now it's easy.

We just need to make the game bigger.

Three more dollars for every 3m².

I'll give you seven more dollars.

Seven?

Here you go.

Sir!

I've got an idea.

- You can take it. - No, after you.

I see.

My foot sunk.

I'll give you 10 more dollars, instead of 7 more.

This stays here. This goes.

Gosh.

I shouldn't miss this opportunity.

Right? Call.

Won't 20 dollars do?

It won't.

I'll give you 25 more dollars.

30 more dollars.

Go away.

- I can give you 50 more dollars. - That won't work.

I'll give you 70 more dollars.

- I'll give you 75 more dollars. - That won't work.

Are you putting all of that in?

Sure.

All in?

100 more dollars.

It'll be 312 dollars per pyeong.

I can give you no more. Never.

- All in. - Call.

- All in. - All in.

Here we go.

Show me your cards.

Now you're talking.

Why didn't you say so before? It's a deal.

Darn it. I needed another one.

Triple.

Here.

Show me your cards.

I have these.

Do they look good?

He's a hoodwinker.

Gosh.

Wow.

Are you going to stop?

I'm good at it.

Mr Ma. I'm sorry for keeping you waiting.

It's okay.

- Have you eaten? - Yes.

- I brought the contract. - Okay.

Let's see.

Hwado-ri 23-1.

The landowners asked for 120 more dollars.

The problem is...

The game seems to be over.

They'll set out at any moment now.

When are you thinking?

At noon, the day after tomorrow,

he'll sign the contract.

He was desperate...

to avoid paying a commission.

He's very fickle.

Stay alert until it's really over.

Until he actually signs the contract.

Hak Joo. What's up with that man?

All famous restaurants are like that.

They deliberately ignore customers.

This restaurant is not even that good,

but he's always frowning.

Then why did you come here?

There are rarely any customers here.

It's a perfect place to have a secret conversation.

Look.

He's nice to his own grandchildren at least.

What about my request?

What are you talking about?

You know.

Oh, that.

It's all done.

I deposited the money as well. 200,000 dollars.

Make sure you make up for it.

Okay?

I trust you,

but is it really all set?

Of course.

Make sure it's all set.

What are you talking about?

What is it?

What's the matter?

We're talking about Ma Jin Seok.

I see.

Gosh.

We've come far.

If anything goes wrong now...

How terrible would that be?

Good luck tomorrow.

I'll leave now.

- Okay. - Sure.

Call me when he signed the contract.

- Are you finished? - Yes. Enjoy your meal.

By the way,

how did you know we're here?

Ja Wang told me.

(Your case was referred to Disciplinary Committee.)

Why are you packing?

You don't know yet whether you'll be dismissed.

Did you request a leave?

Commissioner Ahn wanted you away until the committee.

Can you do that for me?

I don't want to talk to Commissioner Ahn.

Are you really okay with this?

Even if I'm not,

what can I do?

Chief. This is...

no time for you to try to deceive Ma Jin Seok.

You have to survive first.

I know.

But it's too painful to struggle to survive.

No matter what decision the committee makes,

I won't stoop too low just to survive.

I've been doing that for years,

but it just makes me pathetic.

Sung Hee.

Is this it?

Yes.

There's not much. Pack later.

I'll put everything in my locker.

No one will take it.

Bye.

Hello?

It's me, Sir.

What you suggested.

I might do it.

Will you?

Let's do it.

Dad. We have a visitor.

- Who is it? - I don't know.

- I'm off to study. - Bye.

Ji Eun, wait.

I have 11 dollars. Take 10.

- See you. - Bye.

Do we have a visitor?

Honey.

Sung Il.

Who is it?

Jung Do.

Hello.

Why are you here?

To ask you something.

Sit.

Okay.

Do you know...

I've been tailing you?

Noh Deok Gi told me everything.

Hello?

I'd like to report a con.

Yang Jung Do.

You're after Ma Jin Seok...

for six million dollars.

You're mistaken.

What's that, then?

(Sale of Property)

Jung Do.

You can't get out of this.

Okay, okay.

Yes.

I'll call you back.

Who are you?

You're a detective, are you?

What do you want?

To ask a question.

I can hear your brain turn.

Don't even try to run.

You're finally back.

I can smell your sweat.

- Come over here! - No way!

Why would I come with you?

Don't fight us.

You idiot.

We got you.

Let go of me!

What a fool.

Don't even look for...

a possible target.

I see everything.

That's why I'm still a detective.

(Sale of Property)

Hak Joo.

Mi Joo.

Who are you?

The pig.

Honey.

What's going on?

- I'll be fine. - Excuse us.

- What's this about? - Go home, Mum.

Honey.

Wait.

What are you doing?

I just need his statement. Don't worry too much.

Will that be it?

Even the idiot from City Hall.

I arrested every one of them.

Too bad. You gave me a reason to come after you.

Money didn't change hands. It doesn't constitute as...

No.

I will let the others out after 48 hours.

You and Jin Seok will sign those papers tomorrow.

Take the contracts and do it yourself.

(Sale of Property)

The second you sign the papers,

I'll bring you in.

I got you good, didn't I?

So stop while you still can.

I'm lecturing you for your own sake.

I wouldn't be bothered to do this for my own son.

Okay. I'll go myself.

I'll get Ma Jin Seok to sign the papers.

You jerk.

Come after me.

I'll keep running.

(Squad 38)

We'll use public sentiment.

We'll use Bang Pil Gyu to cause a media frenzy.

When Ma Jin Seok gets cold feet,

we'll get him for bribery and assaulting Sung Il...

and take him down.

Ma Jin Seok, Bang Pil Gyu, Choi Chul Woo.

If these three go down, we will suffer as well.

He's on the move. Stay on his tail.

Once they seal the deal,

move in before the ink dries.

Six million in back taxes.

Did you ever think of offering a deal for that?

You and I never get along.

If Jin Seok pays his taxes, we can't save my chief.
