ALL CHARACTERS, PLACES,
ORGANIZATIONS, CASES,

AND THE SETTINGS OF THE PROSECUTION
IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.

SON SEUNG-JIN CANDIDATE
PRESS CONFERENCE

From this point on…

I will atone for my past actions.

Starting with my family,
to my predecessors,

I will investigate everyone
without concession.

I, Hwang Gi-seok,

as a whistle-blower myself,

will fight to establish
an upright and honorable Prosecution…

until the very end.

What's your plan when you can't win
an easy battle like this?

Justice without intellect

is utterly useless.

I will use Hwang Gi-seok
to wipe out everyone.

Did you forget what you said me?

Do you really think Hwang
will stick it out to the end?

I'll be right behind him.

He's just a chess piece

I move on my chessboard.

Fine.

Just do it by the law.

I'll arrest anyone who doesn't follow it,

whether it's Hwang,

or even you.

You know this already.

I may not be the brightest,

but I'm a persevering dumbass.

I'm not giving up until the end.

Who was behind
the past stock manipulation case?

Who caused the Bawoo Fund crisis
that crippled the national economy?

Do you think it's me and Lee Su-dong,
whose photo you saw online?

The truth…

must be revealed

by rigorous investigations.

If Chairman Myung is really
the man behind everything,

doesn't that make you the epicenter
of corruption within Prosecution?

I have the evidence to prove the facts.

We've obtained from Lee Su-dong,
the sponsorship bribery ledger.

Have you secured the evidence?

Which names are written in the ledger?

Are the Supreme Office seniors involved?

As a working prosecutor,

I will observe
how the task force responds.

If they're willing to investigate,

I will cooperate
and provide all obtained evidence.

Why did you lie?

You retrieved no such ledger from Lee.

They won't know what we have anyway.

For this sort of strategy,
the setup is everything.

You need to bluff
to make the opponent anxious,

so the public opinion flows in our favor.

But more importantly,
if we want to use Lee effectively--

It's not a matter
of whether the proof exists or not.

Oh, right. I suppose it's because
you can just make evidence as needed.

If you don't like how I operate…

it's not too late
to tell the truth to the press.

Why would I do that?

We put you on stage to do exactly this.

Keep it up, sir
Bark and bite on command.

"Who caused the Bawoo Fund crisis?"

Your facial expression was on point.

You almost had me fooled.

Good job.

Just as our Chef Hwang predicted,

the evening news is all over this.

Headlines about tampering ledgers,
and equity relationships,

the public's too busy living life
to follow such drudgeries.

Leave a strong impression,
then they'll mobilize.

I can guarantee this though,

you'd have made a fortune
manipulating the stock market.

Are you going to be okay?

Going forward. The other side
will have a target on your back.

It's easy to predict
how the seniors will respond.

If all goes according to plan,

I'll be fine.

Who says I'm worried for you?

You know this well.
That you might actually get killed.

Watch your back. I own you now.

You mean you really don't know
where Lee Su-dong went?

I really don't know.

I told them everything I know.

Shall I knock some sense into her?

No, she's useless to us
if we ruin her face.

Retrieve her house, car,
and anything she received from Lee.

As for her,

sell her off someplace for a high price.

Chairman-- Wait. Please wait.

Su-dong gave me this number
for when things like this happened.

You're saying that now?

It's fine.

-Give the bitch her phone.
-Yes, sir.

Hello? One moment.
I'll put him on the phone.

It's me. Where are you?

I'm at Prosecution.

Prosecution?

It's not Su-dong. It's a prosecutor.

Hello there, Chairman.

It's Prosecutor Jang Tae-chun.

Oh, Mr. Jang. Been a while.

Miss Kim Ju-yeon is a key witness for us.

By any chance,
is she in some kind of danger?

Not at all.

Good. Don't do anything to her,
even if you want to.

If you remain quiet,
I'll pay a visit with a warrant soon.

That won't be necessary.

You must be busy. I'll let you go.

Goodbye.

Can I go now?

Wow.

Mr. Nam, it's as you predicted.

Myung's easy to predict.

He wouldn't do anything to her
after that phone call, would he?

He's not that reckless.

He just gets clever
when dealing with the powerful.

Then he's just a coward.

Weak before the strong,

but wicked to the weak.

Same goes for Hwang.

So your uncle wants to capture bad guys
with the hands of a bad guy.

Correct?

Doesn't matter.

Once a bad guy, always a bad guy.

We have to arrest every one of them.
Shouldn't matter who.

It's easier said than done.

I've been after Hwang for so long.

I fought so hard to get him
at every opportunity.

He shattered me to pieces every time.

Damn.

In reality, trying to go by law and order

is like trying to catch lightning
in a bottle.

Wait a minute.

You didn't take a stand
not knowing you'd shatter.

If something's worth fighting for,

shouldn't we fight,
no matter what the odds?

Am I wrong?

-You are right.
-I do see your point.

I guess no experienced advice
can curb your passion.

Whether you win or lose,
do what you have to do.

I'll shield you from frontal attacks
and take care of top brass for you.

Okay. Let's go for it.

Hwang Gi-seok, that crazy fuck.

He's challenging us?

Lock him up for defamation, libel,
and disclosure of classified information.

Hwang is a clever man.
We play his game, we fall for his trap.

You're right. We can't have him acquire
this persecuted-prosecutor image.

I hear Hwang's wife runs a restaurant

on a VIP membership basis. Is that true?

Yeah, I'm a member there.

May I have the list of the VIP members?

Let me shake down a few people,
and link them to a bribery charge.

You want to target the wife
to strike him from behind?

Good direction.

Well, I guess that's fine.

But what about Lee Su-dong?

I'll do what I was taught by Hwang.

I'll take care of sealing his lips.

You have a plan?

Okay.

Who owns Bawoo Fund?
Who is actually behind it?

QUESTION TAKES SOCIAL MEDIA
BY STORM

Since Prosecutor Hwang's speech,
social media has lit up in a frenzy.

Over 10 million posts have been posted.

According to a stock exchange tabloid,
a document named,

"X Files of Corrupt Prosecutor"
is spreading in the stock exchange field.

However, due to it being provided
by an anonymous source,

the legitimacy of these files
have yet to be confirmed.

What's this ledger Mr. Hwang obtained?

Does it even exist? How detailed is it?

Senior Chief couldn't reveal it, right?

No way.

If he does, we're done.
Everyone from top to bottom.

Honestly, we only did what we were told.

Why should we become collateral damage
in their fight?

What're you all chatting about?

-Good day, sir.
-Good day, sir.

Hasn't been good for us all.

Here's Myung Se-hui's VIP membership list.

Mark one person each and dig.

CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS, CHIEF

LEGAL TRAINING INSTITUTE,
DIRECTOR

Isn't Myung Se-hui Mr. Hwang's wife?

Should we really mess with family?

Listen, you bastard.

You still think Hwang's family?

The Supreme Office ordered this.

No man defeats the organization.
Outcome is all but guaranteed.

Stop talking bullshit.

Do as you're told. Understood?

-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.

Jang, my office now.

INCOMING CALL - HONG HAN-NAH
ACCEPT - DECLINE

-Hey.
-Where are you? It's almost time.

Yeah, I know.

I have to confirm something.

I'll be there soon.
Tell Joon-gyeong to start without me.

Okay.

Where's Lee Su-dong right now?

Sir?

Hwang's press conference.
It was your uncle's work, no?

I have no idea.

If you don't want Inspection
hauling you out of here,

I suggest you speak up while you can.

If you don't believe me, fine.

I don't care what my uncle does.

The person who's hiding Lee Su-dong

is Eun Yong then?

All right, fine.

I know you've been investigating Hwang
behind my back.

I want a full report.

-Sorry?
-Your secret investigation.

I'll set the stage, now you run your show.

Now's your chance to impress your seniors,
so be the goody two-shoes that you are,

and dig up everything.

I'm here.

Look what time it is.
Why were you so late?

-I was being tailed.
-Tailed?

One of Myung's minions?

I don't think they drive that car model.

My gut's telling me it's the government.

81 SEO 3980

Look up this license plate.

What could it be?

Prosecution trying to dig dirt
to reel you into this mess?

They want to find Lee
by having me followed.

Oh, Lee Su-dong.

I'll alert security on this.

-No problem on Joon-gyeong's end?
-Yeah.

I'll go see her.

GMI BANK
DAMAGED INVESTORS' MEETING

The ongoing class action lawsuit
you've filed as the victims

will prove to be ineffective.

If you look at this example of Company A,

the compensation rewarded to the victims
after 9 years of litigation,

was only 290,000 won per person.

-That's ridiculous!
-What?

NO TO PRICE MANIPULATION
YES TO FAIR INVESTIGATION

In terms of profit,

normalizing company operations,

and resuming stock trading
will be a wiser move than this lawsuit.

That would greatly profit your funds.

Change Investment Partners.

I hear they're a notorious hedge fund
for doing anything for profit.

Is that true?

This corporate rehabilitation project
is different.

With Bluenet's corporate mentality,

we aim to invest
towards developing authentic technology.

You aren't touting CEO Yoon's daughter
with this authentic technology talk

to make some dough, are you?

Excuse me.

That woman is a lawyer.

Wasn't GMI Bank's money launderer,
Lee Su-dong,

also a lawyer?

Yes, we are a hedge fund
that will do anything for money.

When there was an earthquake in Turkey,

our company bought
all of its glass production factories.

A leakage of radioactive materials
from a nuclear power plant in East Europe

meant investing in potatoes.

Earthquakes would raise the price
of glass,

and radioactive fallout
would cause food shortages.

In that respect, yes.

Turning a profit
is the first thought we have

in the face of tragedies,
such as natural disasters, and war.

Apologies for skipping the formalities.

I am the man behind this company.

I'm a money businessman named Eun Yong.

Then, I guess you're no different

from Chairman Myung
who devoured Bluenet whole.

Greed isn't a virtue.

In that regard, I'm no saint.

However,

I do not condone illegality or corruption,
like Chairman Myung.

I always work within legal boundaries,

spying out blind spots,
or using others' weaknesses against them.

What do you all really want?

Isn't it to recover the money you lost?

-Yes.
-That's right.

I will prove my international notoriety

by recovering the money for you.

Ladies and gentlemen,

if you want to retrieve what's lost,

participate in this project
with the highest rate of return.

I will restore the company
Chairman Myung ruined,

and make you all rich.

By all means necessary,
I'll make it happen.

I wanted to return this to you.

Are you turning us down after all?

What do you know about CEO Yoon's
new business plan in that book?

To develop source technology.

I always found CEO Yoon frustrating.

Developing source technology

has a price tag that knows no bounds,

without any guarantees for profit.

New technology, like AI semiconductors,
is what makes money.

My mom wanted to establish
a new technology standard.

"Let's win a Nobel prize
rather than make money."

Is that something
a company executive should say?

If I want to make money via stock options,

stock value takes precedence
over Nobel Prizes.

Sure, money matters.

So,

if everything succeeds
just as CEO Yoon planned,

and there's a Nobel Prize win,

I'll be taking the prize money.

Sorry?

As I read through her notes,

the scientist in me,

that part of me felt alive again.

And as the team lead, I felt reassured
hearing your words just now.

Even if I spend tons on research,

Eun Yong doesn't seem like someone
who'd make the company go under.

You will take charge of development again?

I'll send in the details
of how much I'll be needing.

Anyway…

I look forward to it.

As do I, sir.

Where's this?

-You all came.
-Of course, it's you who called.

Where are we exactly? Nice place.

The security is as good
as Chairman Myung's place,

which is why you are here.

Hello again to our public officials.

Neither party will benefit
from publicizing this meeting.

This way. Please.

Let's relax
and have some wine while we chat.

Let's sit.

You had Eun Yong followed?

Yes. I confirmed with Prosecutor Jang,

I'm certain he has Lee Su-dong.

That's not surprising,

but what do you need from me?

Public duties

have its limits.

I came to ask,

if you could end things your way.

Well, Chief.

I thought you were uptight.

Power really does make the man,
doesn't it?

Indeed, power makes the man.

If this goes well,
I'll lift your travel ban

and assist your international
business ventures.

Sounds good.

I will take good care of you too.

The thing is, though…

both Eun Yong and Gi-seok

are exceptional at using their wiles.

We must prepare for that.

Honestly,

being in between sides isn't easy.

You know what the Supreme Office
told us to do?

-Sir, do we really need to--
-What?

-What can't we say? We're here, no?
-They tell you to search my wife?

To pin her down
for bribing her VIP members?

You knew?

We predicted it from the beginning.

Our senior chief here,

is a veteran strategist after all.

Who cares about the top brass
who only gives orders?

What's really important is,

our dear prosecutors gathered here today,

whose side are you on?

I plan to turn the tables.

What do you all think?

This reform will turn the tables
and wipe the rotten fuckers upstairs.

Do you have what it takes to join me?

SEOUL CENTRAL DISTRICT
PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

I knew it.

I knew you'd be here.

Why're you here at this hour?

Didn't you ignore my cry for help earlier
just to leave on the hour?

Of course,
I came because I thought of you.

Cheers.

You going to submit the report on Hwang?

I know you're not cool
with Chief Lee's order.

But I still need to do as told.

Why do you think he needs your report?

He wants to use you as a human shield,
while he investigates Hwang.

Doesn't matter.

We said we'd do what we must do
with no excuses.

I meant, don't bow into pressure.

Not that you just
ram into things recklessly.

You'll only be taken advantage of.

Mr. Nam, I understand your point.

But you said to make my own choice.

No. This time,
I'm deterring you from your choice.

I don't want you to get hurt.

Fast-paced investigations
aren't everything.

If this is bad timing,
you need to learn to wait.

-Hi.
-Hi!

Oh, my God!

Those are expensive wines.
How many bottles did you empty?

I think I'm going to die.

Those fools really know how to drink.

-Is it mine? Thank you.
-Yeah.

When it comes to drinking,
these Korean prosecutors

might have a one up
on Mongolian wrestlers.

Oh, Mongolia. You got a call from
the Ministry of Economy and Development.

-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah.

They want to know when you're coming.

I believe they'll lift the restrictions
as you predicted.

But you'll need to have a drink
with them anyway.

-Oh, my God.
-Come on.

Remember how much money
is invested into those lands, Mr. CEO?

Oh, boy.

Yes.

How's the hangover?

Nothing I can't handle.

Coffee is my hangover cure.

We're on our way there.

Oh, really?

Okay, I'll be there soon.

Yeah.

-We keeping to the schedule?
-Yes.

Let me ask one thing,
since we're a team now.

Eun Yong,

why's he going this far?

This is your mother's legacy,
so I'm not questioning your motive.

But he's staking his fortune for someone
who helped him out in the past.

It defies common sense.

I don't expect you to understand.

Is there something I'm not getting here?

Something you won't get in your lifetime.

The heart that never forgets for life.

So I suggest you do what you're told.

Don't assume for one minute
we're on the same team.

Government vehicle's tailing me
well enough.

Hey, my car has a sensitive gas pedal.

Careful not to get a speeding ticket,
okay?

Which car was it again?

Oh, wait. I found it.

Okay, I'll call you soon.

Tail him.

CHIEF PROSECUTOR LEE YEONG-JIN

-Yes.
-Chief Lee.

Have you eaten?

How can I help you?

It seems Eun Yong
is indeed driving a different car.

Is that so?

I'm telling you,
if you want to catch up to his wiles,

you have to be two, three steps ahead.

I believe you'll have him taken care of?

Of course.

Let's just discuss future business plans
when we meet tonight.

Please let me know.

AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY

Hey, find him at all costs.

Run!

Is he not there? Is he?

Myung send you guys?

How come our dear chairman
never fails my prediction?

I suggest you drop those things.

If you're caught using them on camera,

it'll double your sentence.

Damn it. Get him!

This morning,

unidentified assailants,

attempted to murder
a key witness in this incident.

We believe them to be mobsters
hired by Chairman Myung In-ju.

Although we need a thorough investigation
to ascertain further details,

judging by Chairman Myung's collusive
relations with the current task force.

Their will to investigate is questionable.

Where is Lee Su-dong currently?

Is he still in hiding?

Lee Su-dong will turn himself in…

to Prosecution today.

It's Lee Su-dong.

-Mr. Lee, how do you feel right now?
-Give us a comment.

SPECIAL INVESTIGATIONS OFFICE

Good day.

I'm Park Joon-gyeong, Mr. Lee's attorney.

Before he turns himself in,

he will partially disclose
the bribery ledger,

which will be submitted as evidence
to uphold a fair probe.

Task force lead, Chief Lee Yeong-jin.

Here are the bribery payments he received.

SEOUL CENTRAL DISTRICT
LEE YEONG-JIN (29TH CLASS)

-Senior Chief, good day.
-Good day.

-Shall we go in?
-Let's.

Senior Chief Hwang, how will you proceed?

-Senior Chief, one word.
-Where's this investigation going?

-Senior Chief Hwang, just one comment.
-Give us something.

-Senior Chief Hwang.
-Senior Chief.

You idiot!

How the hell did this get so messy?

How will this make Prosecution look?

Apologies. I take full responsibility--

Take responsibility for what?
How, exactly?

You can't go in there--

What the hell is this about?

How dare you barge in here?
Know your place!

We, the task force, propose
that Chief Lee be relieved of his post

for taking bribes and applying
unlawful pressure upon the team.

What?

Hey, Hwang Gi-seok.

What the hell do you think you're doing?

May I have a cup of tea?

-We've things to discuss in private.
-Hey, Hwang.

Have you lost your mind, bastard?

Everyone get out, except for Hwang.

-Attorney General--
-Everyone, out!

Did you have to let things run amok?

Would you rather the Prosecution implode?

After cutting out the rotten parts,

I'll end the surgery.

Those old foxes won't budge.

You think you'll succeed?

Sure, they'll lose their titles,

but if we treat them with courtesy,
they'll have no choice but to follow.

Your skills do surpass any of them, but--

Sir.

Handing over the reins to some nobody
from the Supreme Office will damn us all.

I'm still family,

so I'll end things without a hitch.

I understand Myung's the real mastermind
behind the Bawoo Fund incident,

but it's hard for me to accept
you have no connections

to Hwang at all.

The burden of proof is on you now.

Our evidence and testimony
will remain the same on the stand.

Good work.

As of today, the Special Task Force…

is under my command.

Senior Chief Hwang!

-Congratulations on your reinstatement!
-Congratulations!

Wow, it worked.

It worked for sure.

Wow.

Wow, Hwang just did the impossible.

Hey, Jang.

The tables have turned.

Come over to our side.
Let's make this easy for us both.

I'll save the most details for you,

so you get the exclusive, okay?

If you don't want to be charged
with contempt, be quiet and sit down.

I don't think it's a bad suggestion.

I see,

you really have become a monster.

Because I have to win this time.

Is this the type of justice

you wanted?

Well, I'm not a prosecutor anymore.

Yong gave this to me
before he left for Mongolia.

He told me to use this pen to sign papers

incriminating the bad guys.

So, why are you giving this to me?

I'm a co-conspirator
in Hwang's evidence fabrication case.

I can't be a prosecutor anymore.

I wish you the best,
Prosecutor Jang Tae-chun.

PROSECUTOR JANG TAE-CHUN

PROSECUTION SERVICE

Been a while.

So have you changed your mind?

I was told to submit this report by today.

SENIOR CHIEF HWANG GI-SEOK

Well, let's look.

PROSECUTOR
HWANG GI-SEOK BRIBERY CASE

Oh, good.

It's good.

Your skills have improved.

You've gotten stylish too.

But it seems
you've gotten worse at reading the room.

I found no such clause
in the Prosecutors' Office Act,

under Duties of Prosecutors.

Deeds to the land in Jeju
under a borrowed-name account…

JINHAN BANK BEARER BOND
5 MILLION WON

…and bearer bonds.

Ask Gi-seok to lift the travel ban
for one day.

OWNER LEE YEONG-JIN

REGISTRATION COMPLETION NOTICE

You think this is enough?

The investigators will arrive soon.

Why don't you go into your room
and give it some thought?

What is it you two want?

Revenge or something?

Money, of course.

What do you have besides money?

If you leave everything in my name,

I'll make sure you'll get medical parole.

Don't look at me like that.

I'm only taking the money
because you are my dad.

If it were anyone else,
I wouldn't end here.

With Hwang's reinstatement
as the task force lead,

the investigation went smooth.

SELF-REALIZATION
AND COMPLETION OF CHARACTER

The same day Lee turned himself in,
Chief Lee was arrested.

Mr. Nam Jae-wook,
you have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be used
against you in a court of law.

You have the right to an attorney.

Senior Chief Hwang, let's talk.

Are you really doing this to me, huh?

Hey, Hwang Gi-seok. Hey!

You bastard, think you're safe?

The top brass of the Supreme Office
were all arrested for bribery charges.

Whenever someone was charged,
Myung was charged with additional crimes.

-Yay!
-Yes!

Minister Son won by a landslide
in a politically neutral district.

SENIOR CHIEF HWANG GI-SEOK

HWANG GI-SEOK,
THE NATION'S PROSECUTOR

With Hwang Gi-seok,
the "Nation's Prosecutor",

I dug deep to find all
of Myung's borrowed-name accounts.

CERTIFICATE
OF REGISTERED MATTERS

He also has 20%
of Pangyo Techno Hotel's shares

under a borrowed-name account.

Okay.

Think we found everything
under his borrowed-name accounts.

Agreed.

Wow.

How much do these add up to?

He really put on the hustle for this.

I'm impressed.

This would have taken months
for my team to interpret.

Pay me a handsome advisory fee.

I'd be happy to use my talents
in service to my country.

No, no.

Taxes couldn't cover your expensive fees.

Never mind that.

I'll redeem all of Myung's secret funds
to the national treasury--

Oh, sure.

I'll be sure to reward
and compensate the victims. Happy?

-Okay?
-Okay.

Heard you're becoming district chief
for the next promotional season.

-Yes, thanks to you.
-The youngest district chief in history.

Sounds great.

You think so?

But I couldn't take care
of Prosecutor Jang.

Don't worry about Tae-chun.

Just finish what I told you to do, okay?

Sure.

Tae-chun was left in the dust,
and Hwang went up another level.

You going to be okay with Hwang?

So far, he's doing everything as told.

Now that I've moved him up,

I'll have to watch him
and find out what he's really after.

Was it too much for Tae-chun after all?

What we needed thus far, was a prosecutor
who would use any means for a goal.

Someone who works like a hedge fund.

Compared to Hwang,
Jang isn't a salesman but a fighter.

He pursues without calculation.

He's still just a pawn,
the weakest piece on the chessboard.

I'm not sure if he'll last until the end.

I hope he perseveres.

In Mongolian chess,
there is a unique rule.

While the pawn is the weakest piece,
which can only move one square at a time,

once it reaches the other side,

it can move left, right, and wherever,
becoming the strongest piece in the game.

Whether he can survive this war
where only the strong survive

is now

entirely up to Tae-chun.

COMPLAINT

Ms. Kim Bok-sun,
you're a Dongdaemun investor.

You want to sue Chairman Myung
and Prosecutor Hwang?

That man and his son-in-law
work together to commit fraud.

But why, of all people,
have you come to me?

Because you arrested
the almighty Chairman Myung.

When you arrested him a while back,

Myung told me to come see him in prison.

It was so sudden, so I went to see him.

And he told me to sue him out of the blue.

You want me to sue you?

Bok-sun, if you sue me…

I'll return your Dongdaemun shares.

So, she sued him like he asked.

STATEMENT

But when Myung was released,
not only did he not return her shares,

but he had Hwang indict her for libel.

Hwang looking out for Myung
is a common pattern.

Didn't you mention a while back,

Joon-gyeong wanted security footage
from Eastern District?

Yeah, she thought it was strange

that CEO Oh died around the time
Myung went to Eastern District.

The reason
he was taken to Eastern District

was because of the very lawsuit
Myung told Ms. Kim to file.

So there is something.

Judging by the circumstances,

Joon-gyeong's theory may possibly be right

that CEO Oh's death wasn't suicide?

It's circumstantial at best.
We still don't have actual proof.

Eastern District's CCTV footage was clean.

Ms. Kim's testimony isn't enough
to prove this.

Well, of course the CCTVs came out clean.

Except,
we've yet to look into cameras that move.

Dashcams.

Yes.

Public service vehicles are parked
at the office parking lot all night.

We'll probably find something
in their dashcams, right?

What if the footage isn't there?

Mr. Nam's already begun looking.

SENIOR CHIEF HWANG GI-SEOK

This office

was supposed to be for you,
after I moved up.

Right?

Yeong-jin.

Loosen up. It's fine.

Shit happens.

I'm rather relieved
to have you by my side.

However,

you'll have to take
a few potential charges from me.

You're asking me?

You want to end at rock bottom?

Just rest up in there for a few years.

I'll get you an even higher building
than CEO Oh's.

Chief Lee was indeed
at Eastern District that night.

But that's all we have.

I checked every car
that was parked that night.

But Myung's not in any of them.

If Chief Lee was there,
we have stronger circumstantial evidence.

But no proof.

Chief Lee being there
doesn't prove anything.

We're back at square one.

Let's just call it a day.

No.

There's got to be something.

What? We don't have any real proof.

If there's no proof,

we'll create it.

How do you feel?

We should be giving you something better.

I'm not sure if gukbap
is good enough for you.

You think this is funny?

Just because you have me locked up,

you think I'll give you a single penny?

No way, Gi-seok.

You will never defeat me.

You don't have to give me anything.

I found all
of your borrowed-name accounts.

Take a look. See if anything's missing.

How…

LIST OF PROPERTY

How did you find this?

Eun Yong. You're aware of his skill.

Eun Yong, that motherfucker--

Be careful.

Watch your blood pressure.

You have to live long enough
to pay for your sins.

Money is power.

I love that saying.

Keep an eye out.

Watch who becomes the real king.

Law and money.

Everything's on my side now.

Why did you go to
the Eastern District that night?

When was that?

The night CEO Oh committed suicide.

I know you remember.

Yang Dong-cheol of Eastern District,
you attended the institute with him?

Didn't you call me

as a witness
to Chairman Myung's fraud case?

Well,

for now, you're just a witness.

But you could become a suspect
if another charge is filed.

Another charge?

First, write down why you went there
that day, and what you did there.

Write down everything you remember.

I guess you obtained some other footage?

I couldn't possibly confront you,
if this is all I had on you, Chief.

So just write down the facts.

It's up to you

whether you'll be an accomplice
or a suspect.

RECENT CALLS
OUTGOING CALL - HONG HAN-NAH

Your call cannot be completed as dialed.
At the tone, please record your…

INCOMING CALL
PARK JOON-GYEONG

Yes, Joon-gyeong.

This morning, Special Investigations
carried out a false arrest on Hong.

I just got the call,
and I'm heading there now.

-Is that right?
-I think Hwang finally made a move.

I'll find out more and call back.

All right, talk soon.

SEOUL CENTRAL DISTRICT OFFICE

One's choice determines one's nature.

Did your boys take Han-nah?

Of Change Fund?
We found a lot of issues there.

You told me to wipe out
all manner of corruption, didn't you?

Come on in.

Oh, dear.

Security's been breached
by me having an insider here.

Mr. Eun Yong.

We have a search and seizure warrant

for your violation
against the Capital Markets Act.

Get his computers, laptops, ledgers,
documents, and any scrap of paper.

Take everything.

Take plenty of pictures
to prove his extravagant lifestyle, okay?

-Yes, sir.
-You may begin.

As I had predicted,
Hwang chose his own ambition.

Like you said, this is what I'm good at.

I'll shake you down
and pin you to anything we find.

As to what CEO Yoon Hye-rin felt

when she took her life.

You get to find out.

What, you asshole?

What do you think you're doing?

-Stop it.
-Who'd you think you are?

You get it now?

You get who's above you,

and where your place is?

You think getting Myung's money

will have the world at your feet?

Myung took the rat poison,

but what devoured Myung
was Gi-seok's greed.

Now it's time for Hwang

to pay the price.

As of now, build a case linking Eun Yong,
and his fund to all his connections.

Shake them all down.

If you find fault, blow it up.
If you find nothing, improvise.

Sounds just like Hwang.

He goes straight for the heart.

Not the heart, but my uncle's back.

It's time to really put an end to this.

Let's do an operation,
while you're in here.

Prosecutor Jang.

Can you do this?

You know how Oh Chang-hyeon
and Kim Seong-tae died, don't you?

As to what kind of person Hwang is,

you know better than anyone.

Am I wrong?
