Original subtitles

(All characters, organizations, and events in this drama are fictitious.)

A Ra.

Are you hurt anywhere? Are you okay?

Yes, I'm all right.

Do me a favor.

This is a ledger with the list of drug buyers.

(Client List)

Their IDs are written here.

The culprit is among them.

The one who killed Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee Jang Won.

In the two weeks leading up to Mr. Lee's death,

five people purchased the drug.

I need you to run background checks.

Okay, I'll look into them.

It's important, so...

I think you were tailed.

Darn it.

You punk!

- Get him! - Get down from there.

You!

Get up there!

Darn it.

How long have you been tailing me?

Since you left the office.

You're not ashamed at all, are you?

What has you this brazen?

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Didn't District Head Prosecutor Kim...

order you to put all your effort into capturing Prosecutor Jin with me?

You're done playing the lone wolf.

We're one big family, after all.

A family? You and I?

Even as a joke, it isn't funny.

In fact, it disgusts me.

We'll see.

I apologize, Prosecutor Oh. It seems like we lost him.

How amusing.

What on earth?

Hey, this way.

Where did he go?

Where on earth did he go?

No...

Jung?

Jung?

Jung, stay with me.

Jung, wake up.

Can you get on your feet?

You need a doctor.

Hang in there. We're almost there.

No hospitals.

They'll report this. I can't go to a hospital.

As if that matters right now. You could die!

Who is it?

Who's there?

He's bleeding severely.

Luckily, there's no damage to his organs.

However, he did lose a lot of blood.

He has type B blood.

What's your blood type?

- Hey. - What?

She asked what your blood type was.

Oh, right. Mine's type A.

Staying here won't help him.

We should call the hospital right now.

That's fine. There's no need.

(Bad Prosecutor)

(Bad Prosecutor)

You know what he needs now. Right?

Absolute rest for now.

Thanks.

Then buy me a drink later.

What a small world, isn't it?

He was my student at the law school. And now, you're his boss.

Some ill-fated bond, isn't it?

You don't know what happened to him?

Thanks for today. Get home safely.

Hey, Park Jae Kyung.

I know what happened to you.

But isn't it time that you get yourself together?

You didn't become a prosecutor to sort out civil affairs.

Get a grip, and get yourself together.

Bye.

What happened to him?

I don't know.

When I found him, he was already...

You must be tired. Get some sleep.

I'll keep an eye on him.

No. I'll stay by his side.

You're Shin A Ra, right?

The 44th class at the Judicial Research and Training Institute.

How do you know who I am, sir?

You closely work with District Head Prosecutor Kim.

How could I not know?

We can talk some other time when we have time.

You should get some sleep for now.

I'll get you a blanket and a pillow.

Prosecutor Jin managed to flee the scene?

How?

Prosecutor Shin helped him flee.

I found blood at the scene.

It was probably Prosecutor Jin's.

Given the shape and the amount of blood,

someone must have attacked Prosecutor Jin.

What?

You didn't know?

What about the attacker?

We're investigating now.

Thank you.

Hey, your mother won't let it slide...

when she finds out you got the lowest marks.

Exactly.

You should come inside with me and be my shield.

Your mother scares me too.

Fine. Sacrificing myself for my dear son...

is a piece of cake.

Oh, no.

I think I left my phone at the newspaper agency.

No way.

You're lying because you don't want to come with me, right?

Hey, don't you know that I'm a reporter?

I, Reporter Jin Kang Woo, only chase the truth.

Can't I come with you?

I'll be back quickly. Eat your ice cream.

No. I want to go with you and look around.

Sit down. I'll be back soon.

Come on. Gosh.

Sir.

Sir.

- Are you all right? - Hey.

Prosecutor Jin.

What about your wound? Did you get stitches?

I'm all right. I got the wound stitched up nicely.

Seriously. Why did you go there all alone?

From now on, you cannot go anywhere by yourself.

Never.

Why are there so many shoes here?

You're back.

- Oh, no. - Hey.

What's that?

I brought the gunpowder and a lighter.

- Hey, why did you bring them here? - Why?

They are the best at cauterizing wounds.

- Cauterize what? - What?

Stop it. You do it when you get hurt.

Who are they?

I'm all right. Look.

- Three siblings. - It just grazed my stomach.

I'm all better.

Jin Jung and the three siblings.

Prosecutor Jin.

Did you see the attacker's face?

Not the face.

The attacker was wearing sterile gloves.

I'm sure he's the guy who put the syringe in my house.

Why does that jerk keep trying to kill you?

I guess I'm not supposed to continue investigating.

They must want to hide something so badly...

that they're willing to kill people.

I don't know.

I'll just follow your lead.

It's easy. Don't overthink it.

We'll catch them and destroy them.

We catch either the attacker or the mastermind.

We must catch one of them at least.

It'd be better if we can catch both.

Let's get moving.

It's time for our revenge.

So you met Prosecutor Jin. Why did you do that?

I'm sorry.

Fine. But...

make this the last time you disobey my order.

I'm warning you.

Actually...

(District Head Prosecutor Kim Tae Ho)

I'm too embarrassed to face him.

I'm the district head prosecutor.

But I can't even protect my junior.

I'm sure he understands your situation.

I'm relieved to hear that.

How's Prosecutor Jin's health?

Pardon?

I thought you were taking care of him.

Where is he right now?

How do you know...

that Prosecutor Jin was attacked?

Prosecutor Oh told me.

He found Prosecutor Jin's blood at the scene.

And he said you took Prosecutor Jin to get treated.

It would be awful...

if he doesn't get treated in time and develops complications.

No.

We should take Prosecutor Jin to the hospital right now.

That might be better.

It's me. Get the car ready.

What's the address?

A Ra.

Don't tell anyone at work that I'm staying here.

Even the district head prosecutor?

I don't trust anyone but you.

Prosecutor Shin.

I'm sorry, sir.

I can't tell you.

What do you mean?

I clearly warned you.

I'll get reprimanded for my insubordination later at once.

After I lock up...

everyone involved in this case.

How did it go?

I don't see anything suspicious in the call history.

They are either investigators or people in the prosecutors' office.

What about GPS tracking using the mobile carrier?

His whereabouts.

I've done that already.

But the radius of the base station is too wide.

I don't think we can locate him precisely.

Eun Ji got her man to tail him,

but Prosecutor Oh leaves nothing like a professional.

Can't we just kidnap him?

No, we can't. Forget about that.

It seems Prosecutor Oh is meeting with the mastermind somewhere.

The problem is this.

I'm not sure how we can find that place.

For that, let's use a GPS tracker.

No. What if we end up in Incheon again?

It won't work unless you put it on his car.

You can't do that anyway.

His car was wrecked. It's at the repair center now.

Joong Do.

Good job. It's a compliment.

What about me?

You did great too, Eun Ji.

I think I found a way.

His car's GPS navigation.

There's a tunnel 1.7km ahead.

His GPS navigation?

Oh, right. His GPS navigation.

What about his GPS navigation?

Find out which service center is repairing Do Hwan's car.

It's a black sedan. The plate number is 1514.

- I see. - Got it.

- What? - Hey.

Aren't you guys going home?

We'll leave after having breakfast tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow morning?

I'm leaving right now.

Why are you guys leaving tomorrow morning?

We'll leave after having breakfast.

(Wangsan Meadows Indoor Fishing)

Hyun Kyu.

You're putting me in a tight spot if you keep doing this.

How could you do that to a prosecutor?

I understand that you had no choice...

with Lee Jang Won because you had to find it.

But you went too far this time.

Please, Hyun Kyu.

I'll do my best to find Prosecutor Jin,

so if you can just wait...

Doing your best...

means nothing.

One must do well to be useful.

And Tae Ho...

I don't think I need to study your face before doing my job.

Did you find it?

Give me a new worm. That one's not working.

This is the background check of the IDs the meth buyers were using.

(Criminal Record Check)

(Chief Secretary at Law Office Kangsan)

What's this?

Law Office Kangsan?

That guy is Tae Hyung Wook.

He's the chief secretary of Mr. Seo Hyun Kyu.

The chief secretary of the biggest law office in Korea?

There must've been a mistake.

No, I checked again several times.

But it's him.

Any criminal records regarding drugs?

He has no records. This was his first time.

He has no records, but he bought drugs?

This is strange.

Here's what's stranger.

The date he bought the drugs...

was a day before Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee Jang Won's death.

I apologize. The meeting went a bit longer.

How do you do? I'm Seo Ji Han.

I'm Prosecutor Shin A Ra from the Central District Prosecutors' Office.

The reason why I'm here is because...

It's because...

I want to meet Tae Hyung Wook.

Mr. Tae?

Well...

You're not telling me why, so it's a bit uncomfortable for us.

It's an internal investigation, so I can't tell you.

Please understand.

An internal investigation?

All right. We'll cooperate.

Thank you.

But can you tell me what's going on?

It seems like it's a big problem since you came all the way here.

Please tell me a little more.

I'll return the favor.

You're interested in this more than you need to be.

It's a misunderstanding, right?

It seems like I picked the wrong day to come here.

I'll come again.

Father, it's me, Ji Han.

Someone came from the prosecution.

(Prosecutor Shin A Ra)

There's a Shin A Ra who works at the Central District Prosecutors' Office.

Find out everything about her.

Yes, sir.

I thought he worked alone.

I guess Jin Jung has many friends.

This is the background check of the meth buyers.

(Criminal Record Check)

His name is Tae Hyung Wook who I see as a prime suspect.

(Chief Secretary at Law Office Kangsan)

Kansan, Korea's largest law firm?

Nothing's concrete, but it's enough to raise eyebrows.

How are things on your end?

I've been digging into Oh Do Hwan.

- By tomorrow... - Not that.

I'm asking how you are.

Come to think of it,

I never said this to you.

Thanks.

Do better if you're grateful, okay?

All right.

Get ready to enjoy my special doenjang jjigae.

Ta-da.

Consider yourself honored.

I don't cook for just anyone.

I see.

Right. I'll enjoy.

Please do.

Snowball, come here.

Here.

Right?

Weird, isn't it?

Here. Go ahead.

Didn't I tell you I'm allergic to doenjang?

We should eat out instead.

Come on.

Who's allergic to doenjang?

(Hangover Soup)

Thank you.

Thank you.

I heard you gave me your blood.

It's the same blood.

There's nothing special about sharing.

Next time, I'll save your life.

Forget it.

If you want to pay me back, do so now.

The ox blood.

Do you want mine?

Have your fill.

Must you be that cold-hearted?

Seriously?

How about some soju?

When you're still recovering?

I guess you need the disinfectant.

Over here.

(Suspect in Prosecutor Lee's Murder Case...)

(on Public Wanted List)

Hey.

Put on your cap.

Hurry.

(Suspect in Prosecutor Lee's Murder Case...)

(on Public Wanted List)

What are you talking about? What happened to Jung?

Murder?

(Jung's Barbecue)

What in the world...

Can you hang up? I'll call you back.

(Mr. Park)

(Calls)

(My beloved son)

(Jung's Barbecue)

Was it you who put Jung on the public wanted list?

Later.

It was a rash decision.

If Jung isn't the murderer...

We'll talk about this later.

No, I need an answer right away!

The charges aren't explicit, and he could have been framed.

Showing his face to the public without presuming innocence...

is like branding him as the killer...

Shin A Ra!

Never raise your voice at me again.

This is your final warning.

Welcome.

Hello, I'm here for an oil change.

Sure. It won't take long.

- Thank you. - No problem.

It's a black sedan. The plate number is 1514.

We're detectives from the Violent Crime Unit.

recognize this man?

He was here a few days ago with someone.

Oh, him. Yes, I remember him.

He was here two days ago as well.

Did anyone come by today?

Yes, but...

- They just left. - What?

I don't think they're here.

Everyone, come up.

Scatter and check the rooms.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Hey. What do we do?

Jump.

That crazy...

Ko Joong Do.

Hey. Are you okay?

- Ko Joong Do. Hurry. - I can't do it.

Darn it.

Gosh. Why...

Hurry up!

What was that sound?

Gosh.

Over there!

- Oh, my. I'm looking forward to it. - Right.

Prosecutor Han. It's been a while.

Today's menu is pretty good.

Enjoy your meal, guys.

- Enjoy. - Thanks.

There's been some chatter...

that you're ignoring District Head Kim's order...

and helping Prosecutor Jin.

Even so. Are they serious right now?

Enjoy your meal.

Thanks.

Thank you.

- Prosecutor Shin. Are you okay? - Prosecutor Shin.

Sorry.

You should have been more careful.

I know you graduated before me, but I won't respect you.

You know why, right?

Prosecutors must obey orders, and we must answer to the district head.

Let's follow our principles. Okay?

Can't you see that prosecutors like you and Prosecutor Jin...

are making it difficult for other prosecutors?

I've been trying to be patient. But you crossed the line.

Is this high school?

What is this? Even kids behave better than this.

Hey.

Investigator Park. Have you gone mad?

Have you gone mad?

Hey.

Did you dump your brain in the trash can? How dare you?

Are you all right?

I'm fine. But what about you?

I'm not okay.

- Darn it. - Clench your teeth.

Or you'll bite your tongue.

- Prosecutor Shin! Calm down. - No!

- Calm down. - Hey, don't.

- Calm down. - Let go of me.

- I'm going to teach him a lesson. - Stop it.

- Just leave! - Hey!

Go ahead.

You should get to the bottom of it if you aren't completely sure.

(Kim Tae Ho benefited the most from Deputy Chief Lee's death.)

(District Head Kim Tae Ho)

You're telling me to close the case quickly.

Is this about your nomination as the district head prosecutor?

- Congratulations, sir. - Congratulations.

Thank you.

(District Head Kim Tae Ho)

(It can't be a coincidence that I got the Seocho-dong murder case.)

(Assault and Murder Case of Park Ye Young in Seocho-dong)

You didn't bring this by mistake, right?

I know who's trying to stab me in the back.

And I also know...

why you assigned the Seocho-dong murder case to Prosecutor Jin.

(Who knew about Deputy Chief Lee's autopsy?)

(Me)

(A Ra)

(District Head Kim Tae Ho)

We're short on time. Can you get started on a warrant?

(Warrant Request for the Second Autopsy)

(District Head Prosecutor Kim Tae Ho)

(Why? Me?)

Why?

Why does that jerk keep trying to kill you?

Yes.

I just heard.

Prosecutor Oh and District Head Kim.

Shouldn't we tell Prosecutor Shin?

Once I have something concrete.

Thanks. I'll pick it up from here.

You'll take over?

To catch the tiger,

I must go into the tiger's den.

(Oh Do Hwan)

No.

Okay.

So I can log in with this, right?

Of course. Don't you know who I am?

What's the password?

Z, H, plus symbol, I, and an exclamation mark.

I'm joking. I changed it.

What's the password?

It's 1004, which stands for "angel."

(District Head Prosecutor Kim Tae Ho)

(Prosecutor Jin went to the wine bar.)

(- What's the current situation? - We missed him.)

(Get him no matter what before he finds out about it.)

(Yes, sir.)

(Don't make me regret it. Prove yourself, Prosecutor Oh.)

Why the long face? Did something happen?

A lot of bad things happened.

Anyway.

Did you find anything?

Don't joke around.

I saw it.

Do Hwan and District Head Kim's conversation.

(Get him no matter what before he finds out about it.)

(Yes, sir.)

(Don't make me regret it. Prove yourself, Prosecutor Oh.)

Help me, A Ra.

I need your help...

to catch District Head Prosecutor Kim.

I know it will be hard.

But still, I'm asking you.

What if I say...

I'll pretend not to know anything?

I know you won't.

Deep down in your heart, you knew it already.

If you're going to pretend not to know anything...

Never mind.

Just don't do it.

We're not working for the country to do that.

Think about it and let me know.

I can't wait too long though.

This is Shin A Ra, District Head Prosecutor Kim.

I have something to tell you.

Can I visit your place right now?

What do you have to say?

I made a mistake, sir.

I apologize.

I won't disobey your orders again.

How can I trust you?

You've done it once.

Tell me.

Tell me, Shin A Ra.

What you will do to make me trust you again?

I will tell you...

where Prosecutor Jin is.

(Jin Jung)

Yes, A Ra.

Where are you?

I'm at the stadium. Where we met earlier.

Wait for me. I'll be there in ten minutes.

Prosecutor Jin.

What do I need to do?

Prosecutor Jin thinks that...

you're the one who is framing him.

So that was why he asked you to help him get me?

Yes.

I thought it was ridiculous.

You would never do that.

You didn't, right?

What should I tell you?

But before that, Prosecutor Shin.

Let's turn off your phone.

Do you think he'll believe me?

He won't.

He'll check your phone.

Then what's your next plan?

This seems too obvious.

Don't make me search your body.

You haven't answered my question.

Please give me an answer, sir.

Is it really you...

who is framing Prosecutor Jin?

Just do as I say.

(Lee Jang Won Murder Case Report)

You will follow my father's orders.

Don't forget that.

Answer me, sir!

I served you for eight years.

Because I respected you.

Because you were my role model.

I wanted to follow in your footsteps!

All that you told me and your junior prosecutors.

Were they lies?

Not only did you frame Prosecutor Jin,

but you had someone threaten his life...

Watch what you're saying and respect your superior.

Respect your juniors first.

Now, tell me.

Was it your plan all along?

Did you really try to have Jung killed?

No, of course not!

It wasn't me. I wasn't aware of that. I...

But framing Prosecutor Jin...

is something you actually did.

Hearing the truth from me won't help you solve anything.

Only I can decide what I'm capable of.

Just answer the darn question.

I had no choice. That's my answer.

You will soon be called to a disciplinary hearing...

for aiding and abetting a murder suspect.

After being removed from office, you will be arrested.

I thank you for your service.

I'm the one...

who should thank you for your service.

Know that I'll someday get payback for that slap.

This seems too obvious.

Not getting caught would be better, but it doesn't matter.

That isn't the main recording device.

Then what is?

This.

Plan C.

Excuse me.

Ta-da.

I bet you didn't know.

Just answer the darn question.

I had no choice. That's my answer.

I always speak casually to crooks.

I don't treat them as human beings.

You're done for.

(Bad Prosecutor)

Get your guard up because the ball is now in my court.

Is there a reason why...

Deputy Chief Lee's death must be a suicide?

Prosecutor Oh, do not cross the line.

It's the only card up our sleeve.

One that'll take down District Head Prosecutor Kim.

The fabricated autopsy report.

I did it alone.

It's not a pleasant sight to see multiple prosecutors...

hover over a single suspect.

The medical examiner got lost in transit.

Just relax and talk.

Sign it, and I'll fill the rest in.

That's how you can save their lives.

- No! - If something happens to them,

I'll kill you myself.
