(Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo)

Prosecutor Kim,
someone is here to see you.

Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo?

Yes.

I'm Jeon Seok Kyu
from the Gimsan Branch.

Oh, it's nice to meet you.

Please take a seat.

You must be curious why I'm here
to see you out of the blue.

Yes.

Oh, I heard a lot about your achievements
during your time here.

That was a long time ago.

I've heard a lot about you,
Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo.

Everyone says you're
even more persistent than I am.

They may not show it, but many of
your colleagues are rooting for you.

Is that so?

I brought you what I've compiled
while working in the branch offices.

I hope you find them helpful.

"Helpful"?

Investigating their corrupt
deeds will lead you...

to the big shot behind them.

I'll be off, then.

Let's...

skip the unnecessary formalities.

Okay. Goodbye, then.

(Human Trafficking and
Drug Cartels in Gimsan)

(Corruption on Personnel Selection
Regarding Cho Tae Sub)

(DUI, bribed Cho Tae Sub,
purchased sex with minors)

(Tax evasion, illegally funded
Cho Tae Sub's election campaign)

This lists all the corrupt deeds
committed by Cho Tae Sub's pawns.

How many years did it take him
to compile this?

Is he also after Cho Tae Sub?

Chief Jeon!

Chief Jeon! Wait.

Thank you.

The information you gave me
will be put to good use.

I'm going to quit being a prosecutor.

Prosecutor Kim,
I truly hope you achieve your goal.

You won't get a second chance.

If you miss this one chance,
you will fall hard,

like me.

(Again My Life)

Don't do this again.

Nothing is more important
than your life.

Yes, sir.

Let me hear what you have to say.
Do you realize what you have done?

The most they'd get for starting
an illegal casino is five years.

Their puppet owner will end up
in the pen, and that's it.

Sure, if it were like
any other gambling den.

What do you mean?

What's done can't be undone.
Trust me and let me handle this.

There's no way they're only
engaging in this kind of business.

If you stomp when you walk,
you're bound to leave footprints.

Those who follow your footprints
won't always be good people.

Don't put your life on the line.
Do you understand?

Yes, sir.

- Bring them in.
- Yes, sir.

Let's go. Come on.

Mr. Do Chang Soo.

Yes.

Your daughter's name
is Do Hwa Jin, right?

Yes.

You got into debt because
of your gambling habit.

Then you sold your daughter
because you couldn't pay off your debt.

My dad got into debt
because of his gambling habit.

Then he sold me because
he couldn't pay off his debt.

Well, he didn't actually sell me.
He put me up as collateral.

So the casino is
holding me as collateral,

and my dad still gambles there.

Do you know why
I'm not trying to stop him?

There's no hope. That's why.

Even if he sells all his organs...

I guess that would pay off the interest.

But that's it.

Who knows?

If my dad wins a big sum...

A really big sum.

Then he might cook...

some soybean paste stew
for me like the old days.

He's a lousy gambler,

but he's a great cook.

Could you chop my hands off?

Then I'll have no choice
but to quit gambling.

Please just chop them off.

I heard you used to own a restaurant.

I also heard you were a good cook.

Use those hands to make
some warm soybean paste stew...

and have a hearty meal
with your daughter.

- Sorry?
- If you gamble...

but can maintain your daily life,
you're not considered an addict.

Let's start with that.
Regain control in your daily life.

We'll help you with the rest.

But I'm... My total debt is...

Gambling debts are
not legally enforceable.

And the Yuchae Gang will
be disbanded soon anyway.

Luckily, you're a first-time offender,

so you'll probably be
released on probation.

Let's give this a shot.

Thank you.

I want to do this.

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you so much...

My goodness. All this money
moved through a small-town casino?

It's unbelievable.

How's it going?
Have you found out anything?

Yes, but we've got a problem here.

- What is it?
- On paper, the money was sent...

to their own incorporated business,
so we can't...

Hold on. Hee Woo.

This must be it.

Take a look at this.

This was sent to Daemin
as an investment,

but it was actually sent to Jangmi
for their operating expenses.

Here, it says this money
was invested in Yurim Corp,

but it was actually sent to Mokran.
The same amount, 20,000 dollars.

This too, Night Fog. 30,000 dollars.

- This is it.
- Yes, you're right.

The Yuchae Gang's two sets of books.

Well done.

Investigator Oh, please get this organized
while I interrogate them.

And let's haul in...

their boss, Moon Gu Jun,
first thing in the morning.

Got it.

And you. I need you to go to Seoul now.

Okay.

What? Now?

I pulled an all-nighter.

I know. Investigator Oh,
is that thing ready?

Right, yes. Here it is.

Go to Seoul now and
deliver this to this person.

Then you can go home
and sleep all you want.

"Reporter Kim Han Mi"?

Yes. Tell her I sent you,
and she'll know what it's about.

Goodness.

We don't have time. Get moving.

Wake up.

- Gosh.
- Hurry, get going.

(Gangwon District Prosecutors' Office,
Gimsan Branch Office)

Wake up, everyone!

- Darn it.
- What's going on?

Goodness.

Get up already.

- Darn...
- What's your problem?

I'm going to interrogate you one by one.

We'll talk about the illegal casino...

as well as all the other cases
whose statutes of limitations...

haven't expired yet.

The more uncooperative you are,

the heavier your sentence will be.
It's as simple as that.

- Darn.
- What the...

And just so you know,
your boss, Moon Gu Jun,

is being hauled in right now,

so it'll be helpful for you to know
that you have no one to count on.

Okay?

- What?
- What?

You idiots. Boss will just...

have his breakfast here and head home.

Hey, prosecutor.
Do you have no elders in your family?

How dare you say our boss' name
with no honorifics?

You little brat!

- Brat.
- You rude punk.

Be polite, will you?

What?

Is this guy just slow-witted?
Or is he stupid?

- Investigator Oh.
- Yes.

We don't even need to
interview this scumbag.

For him, we'll just
demand ten years in prison.

I'll add whatever charges necessary.

- Like that jerk last time?
- Sorry?

Right, yes. Just like that jerk.

Okay, got it.

Hey, wait. Mr. Prosecutor.

Mr. Prosecutor!

Be quiet.

Sit down, guys.

Prosecutor, you're overly ambitious
because you're still a rookie.

We didn't study law,

but we know we'll only get
a couple of years at the most.

I have nothing to say,
so just let me call my lawyer.

Where are the women?

"Women"?

What are you talking about?

The women who went missing
from the gambling house.

Have I noticed anything strange?

Come to think of it, young women
disappeared from time to time.

While closing up,

I'd see their purses or jackets
they left to save their seats,

but the women were nowhere to be found.

They never came back
to collect their belongings.

I heard you kidnapped them.

Who said that? That's not my department.

Hyun Jong takes care of...

I see, so it was Hyun Jong.

Choi Hyun Jong.

What did you do with
the women you kidnapped?

- What?
- You know what I'm talking about.

I heard you were in charge.

What kind of idiot ratted me out?

Why? Did you not do it alone?

Prosecutor Kim, Moon Gu Jun is here.

Okay, thank you.

No problem.

Hey. You heard that, right?

Your boss is here.
But what do you expect?

I mean, think about it.

He won't say,

"It was all me.
Let my boys go," will he?

So?

Will you take the fall for everything...

and serve jail time for
human trafficking as well?

Everyone else will be
released on probation.

Mr. Prosecutor.

I was only following orders.

- "Orders"?
- Yes.

I was ordered to kidnap the women.

Then what?

Then I drugged them...

Drugged?

- You mean, narcotics?
- Yes. I injected them.

When they got addicted,
I sold them to brothels.

How many?

About...

twenty, I'd say?

You little...

(Season: 37,000 dollars,
Milky Way: 25,000 dollars)

(Milky Way: 19,000 dollars,
Cecilia: 70,000 dollars)

Investigator Oh.

Please check personal details
of the women who work...

at the brothels that I've circled...

and run drug tests on all of them.

Make sure you check
their arms for track marks.

- All of them?
- Yes.

We're adding human trafficking
and drug charges too.

We must find the women
who were kidnapped and abused.

Understood.

Where is Moon Gu Jun?

He's in the interview room now.

Hey, Mr. Prosecutor.

I haven't eaten anything yet.

Can you get me the menu?

Hey.

Get a taste of this, you scumbag!

What? Do you want another one?

How dare an outlaw...

ask a prosecutor for... What? The menu?

Hey, do you think
you're at a restaurant now?

I guess you haven't
grasped the situation yet.

You'll be sentenced to life
even if everyone forgives you, okay?

Hey.

You.

I'm going to skin you alive myself...

- You piece of...
- No! Please calm down.

No. Calm down. You can do it.

Get out of my way.
I'm going to skin him alive.

No, stop! Calm down.

Calm down, please.
Chief Jeon is asking for you.

- Chief Jeon?
- Yes.

- Why?
- I'm not sure.

Hey, Mr. Prosecutor.

You still have a lot to learn.

You see, this is what happens.

I'd come here, pick what I want to eat,
and get it delivered.

Then I'd eat it.

But you know what?
I always have my dessert at home.

That's how it works.

Goodness. This little...

Prosecutor Kim, no! Calm down.

Mr. Prosecutor,
calm down and go talk to your boss.

I didn't do anything.

- Investigator Oh.
- Yes.

Don't feed this jerk today.

Okay.

Darn it!

(Chief's Office)

Chief Jeon, what are you doing?

Please calm down and hear me out.

How could we calm down?

Come in.

Hello, I'm Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo.

Do you realize what you have done?

Yes, I do.

I did my job as a prosecutor.

Prosecutor Kim.

You see, what they teach you
in school really isn't enough.

But that is the nature of law.

Applying the same set of laws
in different environments.

It makes no sense.

Regional leaders
must be flexible enough...

to use it in a way that
best fits the region's needs.

We're talking about
the city's economy here.

Do you think they're only
engaged in that kind of business?

Who do you think is
supporting the city's economy...

and creating jobs for people
so they can put food on the table?

If you keep this up,
the city's economy will collapse.

Prosecutor Kim.

Take it easy so you can
return to Seoul soon.

You're absolutely right.

Chief Jeon, you need to
manage your staff better.

About the Yuchae Gang too.

The thugs in this area
have been staying quiet...

because this region is under
the Yuchae Gang's control.

If you round them up now,
all the riff raff will come back out.

Then things will really
get out of control!

Also, I heard over 20 people
have been injured.

Clearly, you used excessive force
while rounding them up!

There was some altercation
while arresting them,

but he did not use excessive force
or break the law in any way.

Besides, he dealt with them by himself.

Chief Jeon!

You clearly haven't
learned your lesson yet.

This is why you got ousted...

and ended up in this small
branch office in Gimsan.

Chief Jeon.

Stop going on about the law.
Get off your high horse...

so we can all live peacefully.

The law is...

a set of rules that the nation has
the right to enforce and execute.

Mr. Assemblyman, Mayor, and Chief.
If we keep changing it...

like you're suggesting,

it's not a law anymore.

How dare you lecture us?

Goodness.
Where did this little weasel come from?

You're wreaking havoc
on our peaceful city!

That's enough, all of you!

What did you just say?

- Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo.
- Yes, sir.

That was uncalled for.
Apologize to them at once.

I apologize.

Look, Chief Jeon.

Let's not complicate things, okay?

Chief Jeon, train your
junior prosecutors better.

Yes, you really should.
We'll let this one go,

so put things back in order at once!

Looks like he got the message.
Let's get going.

Okay, let's go.

I'm sorry.

Unfortunately,
we can't let this one slide,

nor can we put things "back in order".

What do you mean?

A friend of mine
who visited me in Gimsan...

saw what happened.

So? What about it?

I'm telling you this because...

Oh, it should be on now.

I know you're all busy,
but stay for a moment to watch this.

All right.

QBS 10am News.

A gang that had been running
an illegal gambling house...

in Gimsan, Gangwon Province...

was arrested last night.

The prosecution
raided the gambling house...

and arrested about 20 gang members.

- High-ranking officials...
- What is going on?

- who took bribes...
- This has got to be a joke.

I'm sorry.

Once you break the law,
there is no compromise.

The Yuchae Gang must've thought...

they'd be able to fly
under our radar forever.

They kindly kept all the
records of the bribes they sent...

and the info on the recipients
on their computer at the casino,

so it was easy for us
to secure evidence.

Don't you want to know
whose names are on the list?

You must be curious.

The young folks aren't like us.
The young prosecutors these days...

don't listen to their boss.

Even if you found my name
on their ledger,

you can't get me locked up.

Don't you know who's got my back?

Chief Jeon, you must know
how you'll end up...

if you rebel against
such a powerful man.

We're prosecutors.

The law will decide that.

Fine. Let's see how you end up.

(Chief Jeon Seok Kyu)

You turned this place upside down...

in less than two weeks. How do you feel?

I'm having a blast.

If it's rotten,
we ought to carve it out.

You see, there is a right time
for everything.

When were you
planning to expose it, sir?

- What?
- Something tells me...

that you're more eager
than I am to expose this.

A prosecutor must only speak facts,
not mere speculations.

I will remember that, sir.

It'll be hard to get them with the
records on the computer alone.

But with Moon Gu Jun's confession,
we can do it.

Do you feel confident?

Yes, sir.

Prosecutor Kim.

We found clear track marks
on the arms of the women.

The drug test results
will be available tomorrow.

I've taken care of these so far.

Great, thank you.

If you're done with those,
please take care of these too.

(Bribery Case, List of Recipients)

Well, I really have to go home today.

Right, you haven't been home.

- No.
- Then...

go home and take care of it tomorrow.

And as for Choi Hyun Jong and
the others that we've interviewed.

Just let them go.

You want to let them go already?

We can't justify keeping them here.

We have Moon Gu Jun now, so it's fine.

Right, keep Lee Hyun Seok too.

Okay, got it.

Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo?

It's good to see you. It's been so long.

What brings you here?

I was actually on my way back
after the resort's grand opening.

I guess you're busy these days.

Yes, there are more cases
than I expected.

You returned sooner than I thought.

I came back because of my dad's health.

So are you mostly in
the office these days?

Yes, I'm just helping out my brother.

What about you?

Why did you come down here?

I heard our legal team
offered you a position too.

I just...

wanted to see the ocean.

What?

My goodness. It's so lame,

- but cool at the same time.
- I know.

I missed you and your lame jokes.

And? What do you say?
I haven't changed one bit, right?

Right. And I'm still the one
who has to reach out.

I'm always the one who says,
"I missed you",

and reaches out to you first.

Well, then...

Let's say I said "I missed you"
first today.

My gosh, how fair.

I am a fair person.

I heard about the new case.
You must be busy.

Yes, a little.

All right. Then let's get going.

- Okay.
- Kim Hee Woo!

Hey, Kim Han Mi!

I'll be off, then.
Call me when you're in Seoul.

Okay, keep in touch. Get back safely.

Okay.

- Who is she?
- A friend of mine from college.

She's pretty,

but not as pretty as I am.

- You didn't see her up close.
- I did.

No, you didn't.

Tell me one reason she can beat me.

Just one?

That's too hard.

Got a death wish?
Just tell me one reason.

Well, she's a woman.

Reporter Kim Han Mi,
what brings you all the way here?

I was going to send you
the press release anyway.

He came all the way to the
news station to run your errand,

so I couldn't just sit at my desk.

I came here to cover the case.

Good.

Do you only befriend
good-looking people?

All your friends are so pretty.

As they say,
birds of a feather flock together.

My bad.

What?

Anyway, it's good to see you.

I didn't have a chance to say
goodbye to you before I left.

You're cool about stuff like that.
That's your charm.

Yes, I'm glad you know that.

I sure do. So be good to
your friend here. You're annoying.

Don't be annoyed.

But...

when I see your face,
I forget all about it.

My gosh, are you guys...

You must be best friends.

What?

Look who's here.

My, you're nothing special after all,
Mr. Prosecutor.

That's right. A prosecutor is human too.

You're here for a drink, right?
Knock yourselves out. Drink up.

Mr. Prosecutor.

Hyun Jong is really upset with you.

I heard you threatened him.

Oh, I made him feel that way?
I wonder why.

And...

everything he said was a lie.

My, look at this voluptuous lady.

Really? You think so?

But why? Oh my goodness.

- Am I voluptuous?
- Well, this is hard.

I'm sorry, but I don't think so.

You little... Got a death wish?

Hey, that's enough. Just leave.

Go and eat some sashimi.

What about this shrimp?
Here, it looks just like you.

Do you want it?

Mr. Prosecutor.

Watch your back. This is a small town.

And you, Missy. What I meant was...

I know what you meant, so shut it.

Unless you want to get stabbed
in the neck with chopsticks.

Man, you little... Let's move out.

Move it.

Excuse me, ma'am.
Your word choice and accent...

You're my kind of woman.

- Am I voluptuous?
- I can't agree with that.

I've got more than you think.

- Don't imagine it.
- Sorry.

Have some boundaries.

Why are you still so foul-mouthed?

Don't judge me, I'm a reporter.
It's an occupational hazard.

Whatever, it's fine.
I know I'm voluptuous.

Come on now,
you shouldn't lie to yourself.

Hey, why are you obsessing over it?

I don't know. It never bothered me
until now, but that...

I'm getting angrier
the more I think about it.

- Don't do this.
- Hey, Han Mi.

- Hey, look!
- Kim Han Mi.

- No, stop.
- I am voluptuous!

Yes, you are. Wait, what am I saying?

Her temper hasn't gone anywhere.

It's chilly, right?

How is it working as a reporter?

I'm not sure.

Every day is insanely busy.

- That's good.
- What about you?

It's good since this was what I wanted.

You never know where life will take you.

I never imagined my life
would play out like this.

Not until I met you.

Wrong.

You would've eventually
ended up a reporter somehow.

- You think so?
- Yes.

You were born to be a reporter.

I almost forgot.

How did your father react?

He was furious, of course.

I disobeyed his wishes.

But once he realized I wouldn't budge,

he took a step back,
and guess what he said?

He said he'd allow it if I worked
for the entertainment department.

He basically forced you
into politics then.

That's right.

That's why I applied
to the political desk.

I'll get assigned as soon
as my internship is over.

I'll be rooting for you, Han Mi.

When were you
planning to expose it, sir?

- What?
- Something tells me...

that you're more eager
than I am to expose this.

(Chief Jeon Seok Kyu)

It'll be hard to get them with the
records on the computer alone.

But with Moon Gu Jun's confession,
we can do it.

Don't expect to get any help from me.

- Sure thing.
- So you don't need my help?

Not yet.

I see, then what's your plan?

I plan to hand over the narcotics
and human trafficking case...

to Deputy Chief Kim Seok Hoon
at Seoul Central Prosecutors' Office.

I'm thinking of joining
his circle myself,

and I plan to bring you...

and Sung Ho too.

Me too?

Tell me why I should do that?

Because you need power
to realize justice.

But isn't Kim Seok Hoon in line
to become prosecutor general?

Yes, that's right.

I doubt he'll want to get
his hands dirty on a case like this.

He'll make prosecutor general
without having to lift a finger.

It's true that Deputy Chief Kim
is a big shot.

But he hasn't had a big case
under his name yet.

He's at a point
where he needs a big case...

to separate himself from the 2,000 prosecutors
and come out at the top.

We'll trade this big case
over to Deputy Chief Kim...

for Seoul-bound tickets for us.

- Also...
- Yes?

Our office doesn't have the
capability to solve this case alone.

One slip and we could ruin it
before we even get the ball rolling.

You're saying since we
can't solve this alone,

we might as well give it
to Kim Seok Hoon...

and get him to help?

Yes, that's correct.

Kim Hee Woo.

What is it that you really want?

Chief Jeon Seok Kyu.

That's why you came here?

Yes.

Why? He looks foul-tempered and mean.

Gosh, it's impossible to
know what you're thinking.

There's a lot I can learn from him.

You're going to add
another teacher to your list?

It's nice to have a teacher
for each subject.

I guess so.

Hee Woo.

When did you even find the time to date?

Two girls came to see you.

Which one is your real girlfriend?

If you ask me...

My heart says Hee Ah,

but I strangely feel
attracted to Han Mi too.

- Sang Man.
- Yes?

You must have a lot
of time on your hands.

Don't you have a lot of work
starting tomorrow?

- I do.
- Sleep. Just go to sleep, you punk.

Ridiculous.

Hurry up and hit the lights.

Okay. Can't we sleep together
on the bed today?

- Do you want to sleep outside?
- No, I'm fine down here.

You little punk.

Stop with those useless thoughts.

You're so mean.

Be quiet.

- I hate you.
- What?

I have to deliver them both.

We received word that
the drugs are arriving by ship.

Report back the instant
you notice something suspicious.

Hey, Park.

Today's catch is as fresh as it gets.

- How about a drink with it later?
- Sounds great.

(Gangwon District Prosecutors' Office,
Gimsan Branch Office)

(List of Illegal Gamblers)

- Mr. Oh.
- Yes?

Don't overwork yourself.

The sound of your typing is
waking all the birds in this area.

They're chirping way before sunrise.

I guess it's time for a break.

What is that?

This?

Things we need to investigate.

Give it here. I can just go home
on national holidays anyway.

You've worked enough.
I'm scared your body might give out.

It already did.

It's my mind that works, not my body.

Don't be stubborn and go home.

I see the huge pile of work
that needs to get done.

But I have no choice
but to put your health first.

Forget it. Just hand it over.

My gosh.

It's really fine though.

I'll give it to you since you asked.

I'm sure you know, but this has
to get done before you go home.

All right.

I guess it's time I do my wages' worth.

I'll do it. I will get it done.

You mean to get it done
before I go home tomorrow, right?

Good question.

Looking at the amount,
it seems that would be the case.

Please know I'm always in awe
of your passionate work ethic.

Oh, goodness.

I'm counting on you.

You can do it!

Sure, you do that.

(Department of Foreign Affairs)

Is your lawyer not here yet?

Gosh, what a lazy person.

But enough about your lawyer.

Let's talk about those people
from your so-called inner circle.

Did they come to visit you even once?

They didn't, right?

Those people you were depending on.

They can't help you anymore.

(Daesin Daily)

("Mass Arrest of Gang Members
Who Operated Illegal Gambling House")

You see,

those guys are busy trying
to save themselves right now.

Well, that's that.

Human trafficking.

- What about it?
- Did you distribute the drugs too?

Gosh.

Mr. Moon. Let's not make this hard.

All your lackeys
already gave everything up.

- The document you asked for.
- Thank you.

These are the statements from
the women working at the brothels?

Yes, sir.

Good work. Please finish the rest too.

Okay. I will.

Let's see.

Gosh.

You even personally drugged
one of the girls with narcotics.

You're still not going to talk?

Suit yourself. Keep pleading the fifth.

Then before your lawyer gets here,

let me make it simple for you
and tell you the charges. Okay?

You formed a criminal organization,
the Yuchae Gang.

You opened and operated
illegal gambling houses.

You gave out bribes.

You committed human trafficking
to sell women to brothels.

You smuggled drugs into the country
and distributed them.

Your illegal money lending business
had an interest rate higher...

than the legal rate.

Gosh. Let's see how many years
you'll spend in prison.

And since you have priors,
you'll get a heavier sentence.

You'll end up getting...

at least 30 years in prison.

Given your old age,

I guess you'll die in prison.

All right. Mr. Moon Gu Jun.

I'll give you a choice.

Will you only serve time for
the crimes you committed?

Or...

will you take the fall for everything?

I want water.

His tactic is so smooth.

He didn't have to use a lot of force
to get what he wanted.

Is this really his first year
as a prosecutor?

Judging by his interrogation tactics,

it's like he has been
a prosecutor for ten years.

Okay. Let's call it a day here.

Nice talking to you.

Come in.

Good work.

Why don't we get a drink?

Sure.

- Sung Ho.
- Yes.

Back him up for the time being.

What? Me?

Yes.

This case involves drugs
and human trafficking.

Trying to do everything on
his own will take a long time.

So you want to take me to Seoul?

Yes.

What if I trust you,
but you stab me in the back?

I'll end up dead at the
bottom of that ocean.

That won't happen.

(Gangwon District Prosecutors' Office)

(Human Trafficking and
Drug Cartel in Gimsan)

I'll pay for my ticket to Seoul.

I can't ride on the
coattails of my junior.

That's the file on corrupt
high-ranking officials in the area.

I had been collecting it
while their guards were down.

Thank you.

I'll carve out all the rotten parts
and won't leave anything behind.

The local councilman, the mayor,
and the chief of police.

You dropped a bomb on them
through the news.

They will do whatever it takes
to weasel their way out of it.

I'll block their paths.

No.

With this, Moon Gu Jun won't
be able to hold out any longer.

But how did you know I was
secretly investigating them?

It's a secret investigation of mine.
So I can't tell you.

I hope you can understand.

Kim Hee Woo.

- Let's do this right.
- Yes, sir.

Let's drink.

Here.

Gosh, no. Sit down.

Sit down.

No. Mr. Choi, Park. Come here.

What are you two doing tomorrow night?

I'm free.

Me too.

Are you interested in
doing a gig with me?

It pays pretty well.

Sounds good. What's it about?

I'm only letting the
two of you in on this.

A boat will come in tomorrow night.
We just have to help them unload.

They will pay us...

- What? 1,000 dollars...
- Be quiet.

And once we're done with that,
they will treat us to a big meal.

- Don't you like the sound of that?
- Sounds great.

I got it.

What?

(Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo)

Okay.

Ask him to hand over the gig to me.
I'll double his pay.

And you and I need to go to Seoul.

Yes. Now.

(Seoul Central District
Prosecutors' Office)

Il Hyun told me about you.

What do you need to discuss with me?

I'm here to ask for your help, sir.

- My help?
- Yes.

This case is about
a corrupt relationship between...

an organized criminal group
in Gimsan and local politicians.

I see. I saw this on the news too.

Let's see. Human trafficking.

(Smuggled and distributed narcotics
and ran an illegal drug business)

Narcotics?

This case is much bigger than
what I heard on the news.

Right.

They had been trafficking women
through employment centers.

So far, we confirmed 15 centers
working for the gang.

And as for narcotics,
they use fishing boats as their covers.

The drugs are distributed
all over Korea from Gimsan Harbour.

A deal will go down tomorrow night.

Tomorrow night?

But why are you bringing me this?

You should bring it to your superiors...

at the Gangwon District
Prosecutors' Office.

No. We want to investigate
under your supervision.

- "We"?
- Yes.

I talked to the Branch Chief,

so you could take over the case.

The Branch Chief...

You mean Jeon Seok Kyu?

Yes.

Branch Chief Jeon Seok Kyu
wants to work under you.

And this case is a way for him...

to show his respect to you.

Jeon Seok Kyu.

A man who doesn't like to compromise
wants to work under me?

With him, I can bring over
many of my adversaries to my side.

You're destined to go higher.

And we want this case to
help you on your journey.

And I would like to come to Seoul
as soon as possible...

and work under you as well.

Kim Hee Woo is a smart guy.

If he works under me as well...

Fine. I'll believe in you guys.

Thank you, sir.

To round up everyone involved,
you must raid them...

during their human trafficking
and drug smuggling operations.

An entire region will go down for this.

So the scale of the case will
look bigger than it actually is.

Right.

My office will take care of
the human trafficking case...

as it covers a wide area.

What about the drug smuggling case?

- Should I send you some backup?
- Yes, sir.

This will provide a reason for
Chief Jeon to return to Seoul.

So handle the corrupt politicians
that are connected to these cases.

I'll disclose this to the press...

and make sure
everyone's eyes are on Gimsan.

I will handle everything
as you instructed.

And if I make my move then,
I will be able to transfer...

Jeon Seok Kyu along
with his juniors to Seoul.

Thank you, sir.

Sure.

Hey, brother!

Min Soo!

Gosh. How long has it been?

- Seriously.
- Have you been well?

Yes.

You didn't even call
when you transferred to Gimsan.

Right. Sorry. I've been busy.

I bet.

You punk. I missed you.

Gosh.

You're a big shot.

You had a 1-on-1 meeting with
Deputy Chief Kim Seok Hoon.

Well, I guess I am.

Anyway,

it was you, right?

The corruption and bribery case...

behind the illegal
gambling house in Gimsan.

There are only three prosecutors
at the Gimsan Branch Office now.

Two of them were banished there,
so they won't cause trouble.

That only leaves you.

But that's not important.

The prosecutor in charge of the case
came all the way to Seoul...

and met up with Deputy Chief Kim.

- What about that?
- There's a bigger case...

behind the Gimsan Case.

On top of that, you met a big fish
like Kim instead of Jang Il Hyun.

It must mean that you had
some kind of deal with him.

A discreet deal
an ordinary prosecutor can't make.

I wonder what you gave him
and what you gained in return.

A ticket to Seoul.

That's it, right?

Lee Min Soo.

He's sharp and spot-on to
the point that he scares me.

Yes. Come back already.

That way, I will have
some stimulation in my life.

Seoul is so boring without you.

Kyu Ri asked you to stop by...

at the Eastern District
Prosecutors' Office.

Unless you want to pay for it
dearly later, you'd better go.

Are you touring around the
prosecutors' offices in Seoul?

We can stop by for a bit
since it's on the way.

- She's an important friend of mine.
- Okay.

You fool!

Did you become a prosecutor
because it's cool?

- Pardon?
- Do you think you're a vigilante?

I believe our world must be fair.

Like I don't know that?

Why do we have the rule of law?

Despite their sob stories,
we must enforce the law fairly.

If you dismiss cases
because you feel terrible...

and because they feel wronged,

who will pay for the crimes?

We must consider carefully
as they are only human.

But the law must punish them
for their crimes.

Or resign right now and
volunteer at a charity.

- Got it?
- Yes, ma'am.

Don't show your face around me
for the next 20 minutes.

- Get out now.
- Yes, ma'am.

Gosh. That crazy fool.

Hee Woo.

Here. This is all I can offer you.

Sure. Thanks.

Min Soo was telling me the truth.

What did he say?

The straight A-student, Kim Kyu Ri,
became a tough warrior.

Gosh. This job called for a warrior.

Come and talk to me after three years.

You'll have a creative way of swearing.

Too many cases make me angry. Gosh.

But it's nice to see you like this.

What about you?
How are you settling into this job?

Pretty good.

Why am I asking? You graduated first
from the training institute.

You know, Gu Seung Hyuk...

Gu Seung Hyuk?

Right. You guys were at
the training institute together.

Yes.

- He's a good guy.
- Good, my foot.

Goodness.
He's drowning as my junior here.

Has he always been
that unreasonable and unyielding?

He never changes.

And that's what makes him special.

He's driving me crazy.

You must be busy.
Thanks for stopping by.

No, you're the busy one.
I should thank you.

You should get back inside.

Okay. See you next time.

Be nice to Seung Hyuk.

He's going to help you a lot.

Okay. Bye.

Let's keep in touch.

Hee Woo.

Let me just say I don't have
prejudices against people.

So be honest with me.

You're a pervert, aren't you?

Why are you suddenly provoking me?

How many girlfriends do you have?

Focus.

Drive already.

- Kim Hee Woo?
- Yes.

He graduated first from
the training institute this year.

And he was assigned to
the Gimsan Branch Office.

What an oddball.

But Kim Hee Woo wants to come to Seoul?

Yes.

He built a major case
like this in the countryside.

That's a valuable talent.

He's insightful too.

All right. Bring him to Seoul.

But he has another condition.

He wants to bring
Branch Chief Jeon Seok Kyu...

and another prosecutor
to Seoul with him.

Jeon Seok Kyu.

A few years ago, he indicted the son...

of the Minister of Land,
Infrastructure and Transport.

He refused to take orders
from his superior.

- So he was demoted to Gimsan.
- Yes.

The prosecutor that created
an uproar in Seocho-dong?

Yes, sir.

Was his nickname Tiger?

That's right.

He never crossed paths with us.

But he doesn't bend easily.
So some prosecutors followed him.

Embracing a prosecutor like him
won't do us any harm.

I agree, sir.

Let's see how well he does on this case.

If he's good, bring him over.

Yes, sir.

(One of the police officers said
there was a high chance of...)

- Investigator Oh?
- Yes, Mr. Kim?

I get scared when you
just simply call me now.

Gosh. You're hurting my feelings.

But why did you come to work so early?

I didn't "come to work".

Thanks to someone,
I haven't been able to go home.

Oh, I see.

Then you must be done with your work.

Why? I barely managed to finish.
Will you give me more work?

I need you to accompany me from now on.

Accompany you? Why?

A drug deal will go down
at Gimsan Harbour tonight.

A drug deal?

Yes.

This is Hee Woo's case?

Yes, it is.

He gave Deputy Chief Kim
a very big present. That punk.

Gosh. It must be if he's leading
the investigation himself.

- Right.
- Goodness.

I knew he was good,
but this is beyond just "good".

If this works out, our contribution
will be reflected...

in Deputy Chief Kim's success.

He must have come up
with an ironclad case.

I guess it's a win-win for everyone.

- I'm going to Osan. What about you?
- I'm going to Pyeongtaek.

Okay. Let's go. We can't be late.

Yes, sir.

Gosh.

You're so cool, Investigator Oh.

Let's get something tasty
after work. I promise.

All right.

He's determined to work me to the bone.

Darn it.

What? Why is this one so heavy?

Come on.

Darn it. That psycho.

(Osan Employment Center)

(Pyeongtaek Employment Agency)

Gosh. I only see fish here.

- Hey, what are you doing?
- Nothing, sir.

What if we're wrong about this?

Oh, my back.

- Hello, sir.
- Hello, sir.

I told you it was fresh.

Of course. It's not our first rodeo.

Don't just stand there. Get to work.

- Sorry.
- Yes, sir.

Hold on.

You. You'd better stay focused.

- I'm sorry.
- Gosh, you should be more careful.

Pick up every fish.
Don't leave a single one behind.

- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.

Hello? No, there's no problem.

- What's this?
- I only brought...

top-shelf drugs this time.

It really is.

Good.

What are you doing right now?

- Are you crazy?
- Mr. Kim.

Yes, he is. I bet he's going crazy.

How could he not go crazy?

Gosh. Nice.

You brought innocent civilians
into a crime.

Wouldn't that drive you crazy?

Who is this jerk?

Right, Hyun Jong?

Don't be flustered. Step aside.

(Again My Life)

It was fabricated by someone.

The real killer?

It has nothing to do with that.

Find out what he's thinking.

We must use it against them.

Is it about Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub?

I can convince him.

You want to set it up?

Assemblyman Cho is waiting.

There's a wiretap.

You want to cut a deal with me?

There must be trust...

between the National Assembly
and the prosecution.

I want you to work for me.
