This is News Head,

where we deliver the day's hottest news
quickly and accurately.

Our guest for today's interview

won the National Literature Award

for his novel God Is Dead.

Please welcome author Yook Dong-ju.

-Hello.
-Hello.

You're awake.

How do you feel?

What are you doing here?

Dong-ju called me.

He told me you fainted last night.

Don't you remember?

I slept the whole day?

Dong-ju was worried
about leaving you alone

and asked me to stay by your side.

Where's Dong-ju?

I heard there is a special reason
you're here with us today.

Could you explain what that reason is?

First of all,

I would like you to see…

the video I brought in.

All right.

Let's begin by watching the video.

Die!

Step aside!

This is the footage of the murder

of a homeless man at Lake Sopyeong

in 1995.

Do you mean this is actual footage
of where the murder took place?

That's right.

The culprits were 19-year-old
high school students then.

Do you know who they are?

Yes.

Chairman Lee Tae-man of Taekang Group,

Chief Prosecutor Choi Jong-nam,

the currently missing Professor Na Sang-u
of University of Korea,

and the recently deceased
film director Shin Kyeong-cheol.

It's those four people.

They are the real culprits

of the Lake Sopyeong homeless murder case

from 27 years ago.

Has this information been verified?

Yes.

You can easily verify
the identity of the four men

who beat a homeless man to death

by checking the 1996 yearbook
of Taekang High School.

What a headache.

FOOTAGE FROM THE 1995
LAKE SOPYEONG MURDER REVEALED

The content of the video
is too gruesome to be shown uncensored.

Our viewers do have a right to know,

but we will cut the video off

to protect our general viewers

who are watching right now.

Please stop the video.

As gruesome as this footage is,

the culprits' identities
are even more shocking.

Please tell us how
you were able to obtain this footage

and what made you decide
to come to us with it.

Well…

First of all, this footage

is from an old videotape.

I found it recently
among my late father's belongings.

I believe it was my father's will

for me to expose the truth

that had been covered up for 27 years.

Ma'am!

Why are you here? I was looking for you.

Why did you look for me?

I heard you met Dong-ju at lunch.

I did.

Did he tell you everything?

He did.

Dong-ju asked me to take you home safely.

He must be worried about you.

Why would he be?

He's the one going through trouble.

By any chance, do you know

how your father happened to have

the videotape with him?

In the video just shown,

there are three culprits and one victim,

along with one male student
who was assaulted

while trying to stop the crime.

That student obtained the videotape
to expose the truth

and notified the detective
in charge of the case,

but he found himself
in a dangerous position.

In that process,

he must have left the videotape
with my father.

I'm having trouble understanding.

Why did the student
who notified the police

find himself in danger?

The culprits of the Lake Sopyeong case

were the children
of wealthy and powerful families.

The detective in charge
received a bribe from those families

and framed No Myeong-nam,
who was a witness of the murder,

thereby covering up the case.

Moreover, he either killed
or ordered the deaths of

those who knew the truth.

Of course, he must have been ordered
by people who wanted to hide the truth.

Are you saying there were other murders?

That's right.

However, it would be inappropriate

for me to discuss those cases

on television.

So you're saying these cases are matters

the police need to investigate.

That's right.

Could you tell us
the name of the detective

who covered up the Lake Sopyeong case?

Assemblyman Byeon Jong-il.

Assemblyman Byeon Jong-il?

Yes.

Let me summarize.

CHAIRMAN LEE TAE-MAN,
CHIEF PROSECUTOR CHOI JONG-NAM

LATE PROFESSOR NA SANG-U,
DIRECTOR SHIN KYEONG-CHEOL

That's right.

Coincidentally,

Shin Kyeong-cheol and Byeon Jong-il,

two relevant figures in the case,

have been murdered.

Meanwhile, Professor Na Sang-u
is currently missing.

Though these happened much later,

could these cases have anything to do

with the Lake Sopyeong case
from 27 years ago?

I don't think I can comment on that.

I understand.

Some say that your novel, God Is Dead,

contains the full story
of the Lake Sopyeong case.

Is that true?

Yes, it's true.

Your novel was recently embroiled

in a plagiarism scandal
involving the screenplay

of the late Director Shin.

That screenplay was also based
on the Lake Sopyeong case.

Would you say
there was an innocent overlap?

Shin Kyeong-cheol was not only
one of the culprits,

but he was also the one
behind the camera filming the footage.

He knew the crime scene
better than anyone,

causing our descriptions
to have significant overlap.

I take it that you decided
to write the novel

after watching this footage.

Actually, I knew nothing
of the Lake Sopyeong case

when the novel was first published.

I hadn't seen the footage either.

But you said your novel contained

the full story of the Lake Sopyeong case.

That's right.

So at that time,
you had not seen the footage

and knew nothing of the case.

-How were you able
-What are you doing?

to write your novel?

I…

didn't write God Is Dead.

The original manuscript

was written by the student…

who witnessed the Lake Sopyeong murder…

and tried to expose the truth.

I accidentally found that manuscript.

After some editing…

I had the book published…

under my name.

So you published a novel written
by someone else under your name?

That's right.

I see.

That is unfortunate.

I can only imagine the impact
this will have on your career.

What went through your mind
as you decided to confess this?

Well…

I could not allow the truth
of the Lake Sopyeong case…

to be in any way discredited or distorted

due to my shameful

and morally reprehensible actions.

I have deceived

so many people and so many of my readers.

I will fully bear…

all criticism and punishment.

Though I have committed a shameful act

and have no right to discuss the truth,

I assert that the footage you have seen
is the complete truth.

The culprits who took a man's life
as if playing a game

and even had the nerve to film it

had the case covered up
using their parents' wealth and power.

And even now,

they are living lavish lives

through their parents' inheritances.

I believe that their parents
are accomplices to their crime.

If even one of those parents

had endeavored to reveal the truth,

many unfortunate events
could have been prevented.

After being framed as the culprit
in the Lake Sopyeong case,

Mr. No Myeong-nam spent
25 years of his life in prison unfairly

and is currently in a coma.

Though it is late,

I sincerely hope
that the police reinvestigate the case

so that Mr. No Myeong-nam
may clear his name

and regain his dignity

as a human being.

DETECTIVE PARK HYUN-SOO

-Hello?
-Where are you?

The broadcasting station.

Mr. Yook!

Over here!

Reporters are camped out in the lobby

and even in the basement parking lot.

I see.

You should ask someone
to pick up your car tomorrow.

All right.

You're the country's
biggest name right now.

Looks like it.

What's my brother doing?

What about the legal team?

Get the legal team together.

I'll meet you at headquarters.

JEONG YONG-DAE

Hey, Yong-dae.

Your mother said
she wanted to be alone, so I left first.

She's at the park.

It's good you told her first.

She was calmer than I expected

since she knew already.

She's just worried about you.

Are you okay?

All right.

This too shall pass.

I'm proud of you, friend.

Thankfully, the reporters
haven't chased you here.

Thank you.

I should thank you.

You told the truth on live television.

Now the police just need to move forward.

The Prosecutor's Office will have
no choice but to issue arrest warrants.

That's a relief.

You paved the way for us.

I almost forgot.

This is the original videotape

and a USB that contains a copy.

Thank you.

It's up to you detectives now.

Don't let us down.

Don't worry.

We'll throw the garbage out
where it belongs.

But things may get a lot tougher for you.
How will you manage?

I'm ready for whatever comes.

Just so you know,

the original author
hasn't pressed any charges yet.

And since your novel wasn't an exact copy

but an edited version of the original,

you have a chance to fight this out
under copyright law.

And if the original author
doesn't accuse you of plagiarism,

then legally, you should be fine.

Well, it's a matter of conscience.

You're right. It's a matter of conscience.

You confessed your sins on live television

so that the whole country would know.

I think that should clear your conscience.

Not everyone can bravely admit
and confess their wrongs,

just like you did.

You're an amazing person.

I mean it.

The backlash will be fierce,
but I know you'll overcome it.

I'm excited for your next novel.

I just know it'll be good.

Stay strong.

I will.

Are you okay?

When did you wake up? How's your head?

One thing at a time.

Are you feeling okay?

I'm fine.

Says the guy who fainted.

Let's go to the hospital tomorrow.

Dr. Lee said you should get a checkup.

Are you hungry?

Yes.

Me too. I was waiting for you.

You should've eaten first.

Eating alone is no fun.

U-jeong made abalone porridge.
Let's go in and eat.

-Porridge for dinner?
-Just eat it.

-Let's go.
-Okay.

SEOUL SOWON POLICE STATION

Arrest warrants are out
for Lee Tae-man and Choi Jong-nam!

What's wrong?

Lee Tae-man's camp told us
he'll be reporting here voluntarily.

Voluntarily?

The Prosecutor's Office
informed Taekang Group

before the arrest warrant was issued.

We need to bring him here in cuffs.

The public needs to see him handcuffed.

He's already on his way.

Let's go.

He'll be here soon.

He needs a warm welcome
for his voluntary appearance.

The culprits of the Lake Sopyeong murder

have been revealed after 27 years.

The novelist Yook Dong-ju

revealed the videotape he found
among his late father's belongings,

exposing the truth of the case
that had been covered up for 27 years.

The video was filmed
on a home video camera

and contained footage
of the gruesome murder.

The culprits' faces are clearly visible

in the footage as well.

The culprits shown in the video

were then 19-year old high school students

and current members
of the country's ruling class.

They are Chairman Lee of Taekang Group,

Chief Prosecutor Choi Jong-nam,

the late director Shin Kyeong-cheol,

and former University of Korea
professor Na Sang-u.

To cover up the case then,

the culprits bribed
the late Assemblyman Byeon Jong-il

and had him frame someone else.

No Myeong-nam spent 25 years in jail
for a crime he didn't commit

and is currently unconscious,

much to the dismay of the public.

As their past crimes have been exposed,

Chairman Lee and Chief Prosecutor Choi

have promised to fully cooperate
with the investigation

and agreed to report
to the police station voluntarily.

Let's go in, Lee Tae-man.

While some say punishment is unlikely

due to the expired statute of limitations,

both the public and activist groups

have criticized the reality

where money can buy justice.

However, an inside source
at the police stated

that investigative efforts
will also be focused on the cases

involving the other culprits,

namely the late
Director Shin Kyeong-cheol,

the missing Professor Na Sang-u,
and the late Assemblyman Byeon Jong-il.

As a prosecutor whose job it is
to interpret and enforce the law,

I owe my deepest apologies
to the citizens of this nation

for causing disappointment and distress.

It is unfortunate
that certain exaggerated reports

have been made against me.

Nevertheless, I accept my shortcomings

and will cooperate
with the police investigation.

Once again,
I am deeply sorry for causing distress.

AUNTIE'S HOMECOOKED MEALS

Just say what you want to say.

What?

Stop stealing glances
and just spit it out.

What's going to happen to Dong-ju?

What do you mean?

What if he goes to jail?

That won't happen.

But stealing what isn't his is theft.

I'm just worried.

I'm sorry for what I said.

Don't be. You're right.

Yong-dae explained it to me,
but it's a bit confusing.

Anyway, he won't be arrested.

That's a relief.

But what will happen
now that Dong-ju can't write anymore?

Why can't he?

He could still write as a hobby,

but who would publish his work?

The whole country knows what he did now.

What's wrong?

Yeong-suk.

I quit.

What do you mean?

My goodness.

All I said was the truth.

Our publishing house
fully trusted Mr. Yook Dong-ju.

We never dreamed
something like this could happen.

All of us are still confused

and deeply shocked.

Once we are able
to formulate a concrete plan

for how to proceed from this matter,

we will make another announcement.

But most importantly,

I would like to sincerely apologize
to all fans of Korean literature

for causing
deep disappointment and distress.

Tell us what happened then.

Based on your memory.

Once again, he remembers nothing.

You said you were drunk then.

Were you also on drugs?

Perhaps a hallucinogen

-or any other--
-He was not.

You say you don't remember anything.

How can you be sure of that?

Take it easy.

Why did you kill the victim?

I didn't.

Did you hit the victim's head with a rock?

Can't you tell fiction and reality apart?

Chairman Lee.

That was just written in the novel.

Watch the video again closely.

As you can see in the video,

the footage only shows
the victim being assaulted.

It does not show my client
murdering the victim.

Additionally, the people
who threw the victim into the lake

were Chief Prosecutor Choi Jong-nam
and Professor Na Sang-u.

My memory is failing me,

but I can tell you this.

I took part in the assault,

but I did not commit murder.

Weren't you the one

who threw the victim into the lake?

The video clearly shows

Na Sang-u and Choi Jong-nam

throwing the victim into the lake.

Why did you kill him?

He was already dead by that time.

He was thrown into the lake after he died?

I mean, I thought he was dead.

Give me a definite answer.

Was he dead, or did you think he was dead?

Let me rephrase the question.

Who killed the victim?

How could I remember
what happened 27 years ago?

How could you forget
how you killed a human being?

Who says I killed anyone?

Then who did?

Was it Lee Tae-man?

Lee Tae-man
firmly denies killing the victim.

If you don't answer me,

we'll have to draw conclusions
based on the video.

Come to think of it…

he was already dead

when he was thrown into the lake.

Are you sure?

I am.

Who killed him?

How frustrating.

Look at the video closely,
and you'll find your answer.

Closely how?

Something had happened
when the victim wasn't on camera.

In other words,

look for whoever wasn't on camera
with the victim,

and you'll find the answer.

Let me return this to you.

Weren't you planning on exposing this too?

That was my plan initially.

-But I changed my mind.
-Why?

I think you need
the insurance more than I do.

What do you mean?

If I exposed the contents,

you would find yourself
in an awkward position.

You might even be charged as an accomplice

who managed Lee Tae-man's secret ledger.

You're returning this for my sake?

Well, for two reasons.

First,

the Lake Sopyeong case
would have been overshadowed

if I had exposed
Lee Tae-man's secret ledger as well.

It would've caused a much greater scandal.

And?

I also thought
I should leave it up to you.

Up to me?

Well,

if you hand the USB over
to the police yourself,

that would change things.

You would be a whistleblower,

not an accomplice.

Whatever decision you make,

your safety should be the priority.

Don't do anything dangerous.

That's…

what Ha-neul would've wanted.

I'll be on my way.

About the videotape…

I stole it from Kyeong-cheol's house.

Ha-neul…

wanted to tell the police
what happened at Lake Sopyeong.

But I didn't have
the courage to go with him.

I knew all too well how powerful they were

and the lengths they could go to.

Besides, Ha-neul was an orphan.

All he had was the truth.

I knew that he would only lose the fight.

However,

I believed…

that he could win if he had evidence.

So…

I stole the videotape

and gave it to Ha-neul.

At that time…

if I hadn't given him the videotape,

he might have moved past what happened

and lived an ordinary life.

Also…

your father…

may not have died in the way he did.

The situation may have changed…

but people don't.

Even without the videotape,

Ha-neul would've done the same thing.

And my father…

still would've helped him.

That's true.

What you just said wasn't in the novel.

That may be the reason why

when I first read Ha-neul's manuscript,

I fell in love with the writing…

but felt a subtle gap in the story.

Perhaps…

Ha-neul filled that gap

with his desire…

to protect you.

This is our last question.

Why did you meet
Professor Na Sang-u that day?

7 YEARS AGO

Whenever I think about it…

I feel so miserable.

The misery is killing me.

I have nightmares even with my eyes open.

Just beg to the God
you believe in to forgive you.

If you beg,

won't God forgive you for everything?

Don't you have a conscience?

How are you so unaffected?

You don't have regrets?

I only look forward.

The past is in the past.

You murdering bastard.

You didn't have to kill him.

-Are you crazy?
-I'm not like you.

I'm a human being.

I'm an intellectual.

You're a savage.

This is why I hate intellectuals.

Better to be a savage

than a hypocrite who pretends to be just.

Okay, I'll show you then.

This is what having a conscience is like.

I'm confessing to everything.

I'm going to confess,

then ask for forgiveness.

Go for it.

You're the devil.

Lee Tae-man, you're the devil.

Just leave.

No wonder your father hates you.

Your father liked Ha-neul.

You know that.

He always said nice things about him.

I understand now.

Is that why you killed Ha-neul?

Meeting you

was the biggest mistake of my life.

Ignorant, thuggish bastard.

You're barely human.

Tae-man…

Spare me…

According to Byeon Jong-il,

he ran into Na Sang-u at your office,

who was there to meet you.

That was the day Na Sang-u went missing.

I don't remember that.

Byeon Jong-il's testimony

was made under threat
and has no legal standing.

Did you kill Byeon Jong-il
after seeing the video?

You're going too far.

Let me correct myself.

Did you order…

Byeon Jong-il's death?

-Excuse me.
-No, it's all right.

You had your little show
in front of the press,

and I let you take some photos.

That's enough for the police
to save face, isn't it?

Enough of this meaningless charade.

Let's end this here.

That's right.

Lee Tae-man hit
the victim's head with a rock?

Yes.

You witnessed it?

With my own eyes.

Choi Jong-nam and Na Sang-u
then threw the dead victim into the lake?

Jeez.

Why is he so heavy?

That's right.

Do you know anything

about the Byeon Jong-il
and Na Sang-u cases?

I'm not sure.

To be honest,

we have our suspicions
but no hard evidence.

Professor Na regretted what he had done.

He said so every time he got drunk.

I can imagine
Chairman Lee didn't like that.

That's right.

When Assemblyman Byeon was kidnapped,

did the kidnapper send
the confession video to Lee Tae-man?

Yes.

Chief Prosecutor Choi and I saw it too.

Is it possible Chairman Lee
killed Byeon Jong-il due to that?

Yes.

Thank you.

And thank you for coming in.

We were going to contact you.

No problem.

And take this.

What's in it?

A secret ledger
with Chairman Lee's lobbying transactions.

Please take it.

All transactions were made with cash.

Did you witness them?

Yes.

But they're fully capable
of suppressing my testimony.

You need to prepare thoroughly.

Politicians, legal circles, the press…

They aren't your everyday pushovers.

I understand what you mean.

I'll call you back.

Goodbye.

Not only has
the group's reputation tanked,

there's been boycotting as well.

Chairman Lee's apology alone
won't fix this.

Taekang Group
must appease the public and--

What are you trying to say?

Are you suggesting
Chairman Lee should resign?

Let me say one thing.

Any resignations by the chairman

should be discussed
at an emergency board meeting.

What matters more
is bringing the public back on our side.

Even if Chairman Lee
apologizes and resigns,

the group's image will continue to sink

if public opinion doesn't change.

Do you have any ideas?

What is the public most angry about?

These days,

people are enraged
when others take shortcuts

to achieve what they themselves
worked so hard to attain.

That's what we need to target.

We need to make use of the press
and any other measures possible.

We must turn the public's attention
away from the Lake Sopyeong case.

But to where?

Through a press briefing,

the police revealed

that Taekang Group's Chairman Lee

and Chief Prosecutor Choi
have been sent home after questioning

regarding the Lake Sopyeong case.

We are now at
the Taekang Group Convention Center,

where Chairman Lee
is scheduled to apologize to the public.

TAEKANG GROUP

I am Chairman Lee of Taekang Group.

I am deeply sorry

for causing the public
disappointment and distress

due to my disgraceful actions.

I, Lee Tae-man, will now step down

from all of my involvement
in Taekang Group's operations.

I will take the time to repent
and engage in self-reflection.

I will live my life
apologizing, repenting,

and doing whatever I can

to make it up to those
to whom I caused pain in the past.

Not only will I repent
for my past actions,

but I will also reflect on myself
and change for the better every day,

striving to be better in the future.

CHAIRMAN LEE TAE-MAN

Chairman Lee Tae-man
of the Taekang Group expressed his regret

in an apology to the public

and stated he would step down
from his role in the group's operations.

Taekang Group then called
an emergency board meeting

and named Literature & Imagination's
Lee Myung-suk as acting chairman.

-The group stated
-Mr. Lee.

it would do everything
to return operations to normal.

Meanwhile, Chief Prosecutor Choi Jong-nam,

an accomplice in the Lake Sopyeong case,

has been removed from his post
under the Prosecutors' Office Act.

I'm going to rest for a while.

Golf? Sounds good.

Make the reservation, Secretary Kim.

I like the sound of Hawaii.

I get to rest, thanks to them.

You should've at least told me

before running your mouth on television.

How was I supposed to tell you beforehand

that your brother's a murderer?

Wow, you really are shameless.

I'm sorry…

about the novel.

I have no excuses.

I'll bear whatever…

I have to bear.

This is why I should trust my intuition.

When I first saw
the manuscript for God Is Dead,

I couldn't believe you wrote it.

You're not that talented.

I do commend you for telling the truth,

though it was quite late.

Both the publishing house
and Taekang Group

have been affected because of you,

but it gives me a chance
to get rid of the deadwood

and turn over a new leaf.

Should I congratulate you

on becoming the acting chairman?

You're the one
who should be congratulated.

Why?

I've become the vanguard warrior
in this war thanks to you,

and I have so much to do now.

Why should I be congratulated for that?

It means I'm so busy

that I have no time to take
legal action against you over the novel.

But still,

you need to take some responsibility.

Return the advance
for the sequel within the month,

and leave the workspace
within the month as well.

All right.

Can you afford
to give me back the advance?

It's none of your business.

That's true.

By any chance…

are you in contact
with the original author?

You've received quite a lot of royalties.

I don't know how to contact the author,

so I'm in a tough spot.

You did heavily revise the second half.

I don't even know if he's alive.

-Really?
-Yes.

This is awkward.

I'll talk this over with the legal team

and let you know.

How do you plan on making a living now?

Yook Dong-ju,

you've been blacklisted
from this industry.

No second chances.

It's over.

What you did was incredibly foolish.

Who do you think is more ruined?

It's just you.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Your father, your brother, and even you.

You're all scum.

Speak for yourself.

You're the real scum
for stealing someone's work.

I don't care if anyone else criticizes me.

But you can shut the hell up.

What?

I'll make sure to find out

who killed my father,

why he died, and how it happened.

Just wait.

PERMANENTLY BAN HIM
FROM THE WRITERS ASSOCIATION!

YOOK DONG-JU IS A CRIMINAL
WHO LIED TO THE PUBLIC

YOOK DONG-JU IS DEAD

DEAR GOD, AM I REALLY A THIEF?

I COPIED, I LIED, I BENEFITTED

WHAT ELSE DID YOU COPY?

I BURNED THE BOOK YOU SIGNED

PLAGIARISM IS A CRIME

GO DROWN IN LAKE SOPYEONG, YOOK DONG-JU

YOU HAVEN'T KILLED YOURSELF YET?

PAY FOR YOUR CRIME WITH DEATH!

Is anyone there?

Are you there, Mr. Jeon Chang-geun?

1 UNREAD MESSAGE

60D 6841, BX5, BLACK

What is it, sir?

Information about a car.

AUDIO FILE

You confessed to everything so easily.

Just a bit of torture,
and you would sell out your own country.

What do you mean?

Assemblyman Byeon,

we saw you sell us all out on video.

We didn't pay you to be incompetent.

None of this would've happened
if you had killed Lee Ha-neul then.

Where are you?

Detective Kim is on his way to the flat.

He can only cause trouble alive.

Take care of him.

DETECTIVE KANG

We need to seize a vehicle.

It might belong to the suspect
who killed Byeon Jong-il.

It's probably a burner car,
but still check its registration.

Yes, sir.

Also, Cheetah was a member
of Cheonyeong Heavenly Sanctum.

It seems Byeon Jong-il met him there.

It's me, sir.

A Heavenly Sanctum group photo

was found among
Byeon Jong-il's belongings.

Cheetah was in the photo.

It's less of a cult and more of a gang.

Okay.

Check Byeon Jong-il's clothes
and shoes in the evidence room

for any bugs.

I'll explain when I get back.

He didn't just let Byeon Jong-il go.

That's right.

No one seems to be here.

Let's go to Cheonyeong Heavenly Sanctum.

-Right now?
-Cheetah was a member there.

-Let's go see An Hyeon-muk.
-Yes, sir.

Do you remember me?

Yes.

I'd like to ask you
about Mr. No Myeong-nam.

What is it?

Did you meet Mr. No late at night
on October 5th two years ago?

I can't recall clearly…

but he rarely visits me at night.

Do you remember where you were
on September 19th of last year?

What happened then?

Shin Kyeong-cheol was murdered that day.

I must have been home.

That's where I usually am after work.

Were you alone?

Well, I live alone.

You're home early today.

I'm on holiday.

I see.

If you're done asking…

Of course.

Thank you for cooperating.

No problem.

Lee Ha-neul.

My name is Jeon Chang-geun.

It's not that.

Does the name Lee Ha-neul ring a bell?

No. Who is it?

It's nothing.

Thank you for cooperating.

Goodbye.

Do you think he's Lee Ha-neul?

I'm not sure.

Stop bothering me.
Dong-ju's mom isn't here!

Could we interview you, at least?

Go away! Stop disrupting my business.

MOM

Mom, it's me.

Hey, Dong-ju.

Where are you?

Where else?

I'm at work.

Hello? Dong-ju?

Yes, Mom.

You doing okay?

Of course I am.

Don't worry about me.

Everyone around town is talking

about how the murderers were caught

thanks to what you did.

Mom.

I'm listening.

I booked your flight to Canada.

It's in three days.

I wanted to send you away quicker

so you didn't have to see me like this.

But it is what it is.

I'm not going.

-I bought it already.
-Cancel it.

-Mom.
-Yes, I'm your mom.

How could a mom leave
when her son is having a tough time?

I'm all right.

I'll feel better if you go.

Dong-ju.

I might not be able to help you,

but I can stay by your side.

Don't beat yourself up about this.

You confessed to everything you did.

All the murderers got to go free,
but the media…

How does it make sense
for you to get all the flak?

Dong-ju.

Just start over. It's all right.

You were always a good writer,
just like your dad.

You won first place
in every writing contest.

Have you eaten?

Dong-ju.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I'm sorry.

From the bottom of my heart,

I'm sorry.

He isn't picking up?

He's at the publishing house,
so maybe he's busy.

People are strange.

They've all lost their minds.

You saw those videos online?

Whether it's online or on TV,
they're all the same.

They're only
criticizing Dong-ju like crazy,

even making up lies about him.

Just ignore them.

It's probably a reporter
or a content creator.

Those bastards.

Enough is enough!

Who are you?

What are you doing?

Excuse me, you need to leave.

Why do you have this?

Why do you have my shoe?

Please forgive me.

Please forgive my sins.

I have sinned greatly.

Please pardon my sins…

and forgive me.

Do you know him?

He seems crazy.

Sir.

I'll forgive you if you tell me the truth.

Why do you have this?

I didn't know

An Hyeon-muk was the devil.

I thought…

An Hyeon-muk was God.

I believed

I was doing the work of God.

Who's An Hyeon-muk?

Tell me more…

in detail.

What do I do with the boy?

Get rid of him without a trace.

The director has such
an excellent holy servant.

This is the will of the Father.

Make the sinner Lee Ha-neul

and the sinner Lee Gang-san repent.

Make them repent
in the name of the Father.

But if they refuse to repent…

execute them in the name of the Father.

Please forgive me. I have sinned.

Please forgive me.

I beg you to forgive me.

Gang-san…

I have sinned.

Gang-san?

What do you see in me?

Eternal life.

-Eternal life!
-Eternal life!

Eternal life!

-Eternal life!
-Eternal life!

A true follower of Cheonyeong
is not tempted by dirty money.

Money is the devil incarnate.

It is evil, and it is excrement.

Take the dirty evil,
the excrement, the devil,

and discard it
in the temple of the Father.

If you do so,

you will have an eternal seat

in Cheonyeong Heavenly Sanctum,

that paradise,

reserved only
for the followers of Cheonyeong.

Do you believe?

-We believe!
-We believe!

All light is within
Cheonyeong Heavenly Sanctum,

and all darkness is out in the world.

As the world is
much too corrupt and full of evil,

I have received a revelation
from the Father to recreate this world.

-Father!
-Father!

Darkness will fade,

and a new world full of light will dawn

on Cheonyeong Heavenly Sanctum.

-We believe!
-We believe!

He is here.

The messiah

is right here.

Right in front of you.

Who is the messiah?

That crazy man blabbered on

about how An Hyeon-muk
was the devil or something.

Then Gang-san suddenly vanished.

Today is the day!

My prophecy of the second coming
of Jesus Christ has come true!

Son!

Come to Father.

I have waited for you.

I have waited earnestly

for the day of your resurrection.

Come to me.

Son!

Die!

-Gang-san, no!
-Die!

SPECIAL THANKS TO RYU SEUNG-SOO

Gang-san's in danger.

I think his body is changing.

It's time for someone to make a sacrifice.

The case will be closed
as there is no one to prosecute.

In here, I'm the law.

Ask those children for forgiveness.

My brother is finished.

That bastard was the real villain.

Do you see what I'm getting at?

I think we found Lee Ha-neul.

There is no record of him
leaving the country.

Team Two, go to his house.

Leave with Gang-san.

The boy from the past returns to the past.

Gang-san needs his brother right now.
