Original subtitles

What did the doctor say?

He wants me here for 2 weeks for potential infection.

Give me that.

Our department will cover the bill, so don't worry about that.

But we all chipped in too...

- Boss, it's... - Be quiet.

No, we can't.

Please take it, it's a small gesture.

Have some meals together.

I'm pissing blood doing your work, idiot.

When will you come back?

I thought about it a lot,

I don't think I can do this anymore...

I'm sorry.

Don't be, you idiot, I'm sorry that you got hurt.

I'm so scared...

I tried to overcome it, but I just can't...

Everyone feels the same, they just pretend not to be.

After getting stabbed a few times,

I freak out whenever I see knives.

Gonna go back to the intelligence?

Yes, I'd like to do that.

Okay, I'll put in a word for you,

so get plenty of rest while at it.

It's okay, idiot!

Go inside.

Yo, Byung-sik.

Black Dragon boys are quiet.

I don't see any of them.

Then...

keep an eye on JANG Isu's boys.

They'll make a move.

- On it! - Okay.

- Wong-oh! - Yes?

Are you hurt?

Because of me last time...

Dammit...

I can't see where I got hurt...

You should go to the hospital.

Forget it, idiot, get me some soya sauce.

Where you going? I said soya sauce.

This is great for bruises.

What is it? I don't want it.

Punk, go easy.

Easy, easy!

- You're being a baby! - You prick...

- It's hot but it'll feel good. - That hurts!

- You like this job? - Yes.

- Did you meet mom? - Yes, she's well.

That's enough.

Aren't you mad that she's living with someone else?

None of my business, she has her own life.

Good, that's one way of putting it.

You're all grown up now.

I'm 15 already.

Right.

Then sit down, sit.

Since you're an adult, have a drink.

You're making me drink?

Sure.

Hey, come back!

- Have a drink! - I don't want some.

Come here, now!

I'll give you something good.

Cashing out.

- You won big. - No, I lost $100.

Welcome, boss.

Stupid, useless fucking dicks!

Who did this?!

Isu gang did this!

Dammit!

I'm gonna fuck them up!

Boss!

Big boss said to stay low for a while.

Shut your fucking hole.

Yes, he's on the move.

Stay close, you can't lose him.

Sir, we got visual on JANG Isu.

Heading to the market, okay.

Idiots...

Been well?

Fucking rats, you fucked around in my turf.

Say what?

Son of a bitch!

Goddamn lunatic!

Hey, hey!

I caught those fucks!

I told you not to cause problems!

Piss off!

- Piss the fuck off! - Go away!

Cunt...

We've met at the diner, come over here.

Drop the knife! Lose it!

- Where did he go? - Where is he?

Hey!

Where is he?

Come out!

- Come out, asshole! - Dude! There!

- Look at this chump! - Get back up here!

- It's too high! - You stay right there!

- Don't go anywhere! - Don't move!

- Stop! - Le't's move!

Yeah.

Boss, the cops got Suk-rak.

What?

We had a run-in with Isu gang...

I'm sorry.

Look at this carefully.

This is you, right?

He said no.

- Blind baldy... - Sit up straight!

- Lying sack of shit... - It's totally you.

- Fucking rat... - Hey, listen!

The boys you hang out with,

tell me where they are.

Then I'll ship you back to China quietly.

He doesn't know.

- What should I do with him? - You're something.

What did he just say?

Fucker...

- I'm a fucker? - What a piece of work!

Wanna die?

Oh man, I'm so tired.

Sit him down.

He wants a lawyer.

Words alone aren't enough for this prick.

You chop up a person and want a lawyer?

Okay, boys, get him a lawyer.

Sure.

I'll get you a lawyer.

Give me a sec.

I'm going out for a bit, you're done for the day.

I can go?

You may leave, good work.

Grab him!

He wants a lawyer...

Yup, I heard you, we'll take care of him.

This is Tasey Taser Esq., say hello.

Take a picture without his top and put him in the cage.

Sure.

- Get up. - Let's go!

See? Your Korean's good.

- Has he talked? - He speaks Korean.

Just spill it, we're wasting time.

Fatass fuck! You fucking boar!

Should I chop you up too?!

Hold still, asshole!

- Boss, go easy. - He still doesn't get it.

It's okay, you're good.

You're alright.

What the hell, buddy?

Can cops do this?

Yes.

To killers like you, we totally can.

What should I do with you?

Do you take me for an idiot?

He's biting his tongue!

- Open his mouth! - Towel! Get a towel!

Stuff his mouth!

Enough with this tough guy act!

Let's congratulate Mrs. YOOK Bok-ja's 60th!

My lovely son,

thank you for allowing me to live comfortably in Korea.

I love you!

Mr. JANG, please come and give her a piggyback!

- No way! - Come on out!

You did well, I love you.

Let's all have some fun!

What a great day! Everyone, get up!

Let's all dance!

Grab that bastard!

Son of a bitch!

Get that fucker!

JANG Isu!

You bitch!

I told you to stay the fuck away!

Do you know who I am?!

I'm Harbin's JANG Chen! You fucking asshole!

This is a banquet hall in Garibong district, Seoul.

Caused this scene of chaos by spraying a fire extinguisher.

A Chinese-Korean gangster. Caused this scene of chaos by spraying a fire extinguisher.

Then a man wielding an axe attacked several party guests.

It was a fight between 2 rivals gangs.

Let's pack up.

They're going all-out.

What's the point of Serious Crimes Unit?

We're short-staffed, and Hong-seok's out...

Is that why you couldn't close this case?

- You know what I mean. - Is that so?

I should've brought you a full troop.

- We really are short on men... - I see, it's all my fault.

No cooperation from the shop owners too.

Why the hell not?

Even if we deport these fucks, they'll come back with a new ID,

locals are scared of payback, nothing we can do.

Did we ever need help to work a case?

It's about arresting 2 fucks.

If you had the time to talk back, go and find these bastards.

- Are we jerking off here? - Go and find them!

What's with you two?

Cap, a word outside please?

- You stay put. - Let go!

Alright.

- Captain, be the better man. - Pompous bastard!

He's too much...

Say what?

What did you just say? You son of a bitch!

Goddammit!

Jesus fuck...

- Be cool. - Let go of me!

This unit's all fucked up.

Let go! Let go!

I'll calm him down.

What's with you?

Listen, do this properly and you're a captain.

Honest to god, I'll make it happen.

I don't care about that,

we'll get the bastards, so don't nag the boys.

How was I nagging?

Can't a captain push them?

Are we jerking around?

They haven't gone home in 2 weeks, look at them!

You and I've been doing this for 15 years, you know better.

You think I like what I'm doing?

I get no support but they breathe down my neck.

I got it, stop trying to be their boss right now.

Go easy on the boys.

Promotion is least of my worries now.

- Cap! - What?!

The chief wants to see you.

You're so dead, see you.

He wants you too.

Why me?

- It's so much better. - Yeah?

- Salute! - Come in, sit.

You called me?

This is Cpt. KANG from Seoul Metro Homicide.

They're heading up this case, Cpt. JEON and Det. MA.

Hello.

Why's Homicide here?

Your suspect is on China's most wanted list.

I got an official doc from China yesterday.

His name is JANG Chen,

he was an enforcer in a Harbin gang.

- About 300 men... - Harbin?

Why is he here then?

In 2000, his boss was arrested and received death penalty,

and he smuggled in via Busan pier...

In any case,

this case is transferred over to Homicide, got it?

What? Why?

I got shit on by the commissioner!

At my age...

We're almost ready for a sweep, and to hand it all over...

Should've done it earlier!

What have you done in 2 months?

Captain, you didn't brief him on our operation?

What?

- Oh yeah! - That's why.

Chief, the thing is,

we were originally after 3 perps, but their gang is bigger now.

We're trying to bring them in with a mop-up op,

so we've been making some preparations.

This guy's selling snake oil.

Buddy, be quiet.

It's your chance to be on the front page.

- You think... - Wait a minute.

- So, how many arrests? - Well, about... 5 or 6...

- 25! - Yeah, 25!

- At least 25! - 25 or more!

What did you say to me...

It was hard wrangling them up,

the op is ripe for picking, give us time to harvest!

If we don't catch them, I'll quit the force.

Enough!

What! Don't shout at me!

Sir, you heard him, that prick said...

Buddy!

Look at this punk, who are you calling prick?!

- What are you doing?! - Let's calm down and talk.

- I'll show you what I got! - Come here!

Be cool!

You bet your jobs on this! Get them or you're done!

Okay, give us 10 days.

10 days it is, starting countdown today!

Yes, sir! Thank you, sir!

- I never said I'd quit... - Captain, let's have a word!

That's quite enough, I'm sorry about this.

Let's shake on it, shake and make up.

Tell your captain...

Coming to our home and stirring shit up, eh?

What in the world?

Homicide captain has jackshit for manners.

Looks like you won't get the promotion.

It doesn't matter now.

But how will you catch 25 gangsters?

We'll get them.

Talking is easy, huh? Get them?

- Sure, you can get them. - Sir.

- Thanks, bud. - Here.

How's your face?

It's getting better.

You're free to come back.

Intelligence is boring, sitting and typing all day.

I know a plastic surgeon, call me if you need him.

He'll make you a new person.

If it's so good, you should go.

And you? Stretch my face and you get you.

See you.

- Bye. - Yeah.

100 guest rooms, hostess bar in the basement.

Cafe on the ground floor.

Buffet restaurant on top.

They've been like that for 3 months.

They took over several others by doing the same.

Mr. JANG, if you get rid of them, I'll pay you half a mil.

Have a great meal.

- Not coming? - I'm not hungry.

When can you begin?

No need to delay it, I'll start right away.

But my estimate's off.

What do you mean?

$500K is too little.

I need at least $1M.

A man should stick to his guns.

I won't change my mind, the final price is $1M.

Do you take us for fools?

$500K is a lot, others will do it for a lot less.

Mr. GWAK, don't look at me like that.

Got that?

I'll give you $100K advance.

Are you kidding? I need $500K up front.

It's our first deal, I need insurance.

Take care of HWANG, and I'll give you the rest.

Who's Mr. HWANG?

He runs hostess bars in Garibong district.

I'm sure you know him, you took his manager's hand.

That's why I wanted you.

Hurry UP!

What the shit?

Boss! We gotta move!

Fucking bastards!

Get him!

I don't believe this...

Who the fuck were they?!

Fuck you!

You bastard!

Who ordered you?!

Who?!

Just kill me, fucker!

Son of a bitch!

Stand up straight.

Goddammit, I told you to stay the fuck out of this.

What?

Where's HWANG?

This is a bad time, leave us.

Does he take me for a bitch dick?

Come again?

I'm not in the mood, so leave us alone.

Motherfucker.

Fuck off.

Find 10 good men and send them my way.

Dipshit!

How dare you defy me? I told you to stay put!

You tried to bury him in broad daylight?!

Did you expect me to stay down like a senile fuck?

He took my boy's hand!

So did you get him?

If you can't do it right, then why bother?!

And what have you been doing?!

I'll fucking whip your shit!

You know what I'm like!

I'll find peace only when I get him and take his hand.

Get 3 men to surrender tomorrow.

Say what?

One's going in for assult and damaging public property.

And wear this stab proof vest.

Don't get stabbed to death.

Goddammit!

You fucking wear it!

I did my best, but he should go to an ER.

Thank you, I'll pay you later.

I got it.

Take care.

You're hiding something from me.

What do you mean?

Get up.

On your feet.

Did your hubby mention anything?

He didn't say anything...

Fucking bitch!

There are 2 things I don't tolerate:

stealing from me and lying to me.

For the last time, what did he say?

I didn't know he'd do that, that's the truth!

Who ordered him?!

HWANG's men came to my home once.

HWANG?

Ladies and gentlemen,

we'll go over everything in detail.

- One moment please. - Be quiet.

- Attention, please! - Clap!

Attention, please.

Thank you so much for giving us your time today.

As you know, Black Dragon is out of control.

I know they've caused a ton of grievance.

That's why we plan to arrest the entire gang,

but that requires your cooperation.

Please, hear me out.

To be frank, we haven't IDed all of them and many are new,

so it's difficult for us to keep track of them all.

So, if you could send us even a tiny tip,

we'll mobilize and arrest them all...

How do you expect us to trust you?

We always get backstabbed.

What's the point?

Do you know what they're like?

One mistake and they'll stab us.

Gathering like this makes me nervous.

That's why they're asking us for help!

I'm leaving!

Gentlemen!

Why are you all so scared?

This is why you're always victimized!

You little brat! What'd you know!

Did I say something wrong?

These cops want to help, but you scurry away!

Will you always stay as victims?

Will you continue to work wearing stab proof vest?

I don't have money to buy one and I have to work here!

I can't live like this!

Stabbings everyday, a person can't live this way!

I've been doing this for 15 years,

and if we leave them be, we'll only have more victims.

They think they're above the law, we gotta lock everyone up.

You're all my neighbors.

I'm a resident here, you know that.

I'm trying to make this place even a little safer,

so your cooperation is crucial.

They're dangerous, so stay away and take their pictures.

Taking photos is the best way.

You didn't have to say anything.

Com here.

I recognize one, but 2 are new.

It doesn't have to be good. Just one picture.

I see.

- Looked into HWANG? - Yes.

He comes to work only on weekends.

I better kill them all.

- Anything else? - No, boss.

- Collection? - Not everything yet.

- Take care of it soon. - Yes, boss.

You wanna close shop? Pay up!

What's with you?!

Those bastards...

They take $500 to $1K.

They collect on different days.

I didn't want to pay him at first, but he threatened to kill me.

The guys here were with the Venom gang.

They came to drink at my shop often,

and they'd smash things up, it's unbearable.

They come by everyday to collect,

they don't care if we don't have money.

They're human trash.

They're collecting earlier and earlier.

If they keep this up, we can't keep our shops.

The boss doesn't come around, just his minions come to collect.

- Usually $1K at a time. - Yanbian gang's turf...

- from Garibong district... - They ransacked my shop...

They hangout at the arcade...

Black Dragon gang boss JANG Chen

Why're there so many?

They control the entire area,

one member takes over as a manager,

and bring in his own men.

How many in total?

We counted 26 so far.

You were right on the money.

It'll take a few days to get everyone.

We gotta get him in a day.

All of them in a day?

If the word gets out, they'll flee.

No, we don't have the resources.

- Evening! - What brings you here?

We need a precise plan...

Hong-seok, you're hot in a suit.

Evening.

Divide into 2 teams.

I'm talking here...

When are you setting me up with a date?

Sir, can I speak to you for a moment?

Sure thing, come with me.

- Get some beer! - Sure.

And JANG Chen... JANG Chen...

Why isn't anyone listening to me?

Have a leg.

- I like BBQ chicken better. - There isn't any BBQ...

- What is it? - Well...

Chinese officers are arriving next week.

Homicide will be ordered to take the case with them.

And take our hands off?

Yes.

It's a direct order from the commissioner.

Your suspect will be repatriated.

- Okay, off you go. - Bye.

Hey!

What will happen to him once he's sent back?

He'll be tried, death penalty, at least.

Hey, stop! You can't take him!

That's enough, it's all over.

This guy can't be sent back!

It's an order from the top!

These officers came to take him back.

- Take him away! - Out of the way!

- What's with you? - Grab him!

That's enough, sir.

- Don't make this into a thing! - Let go of me!

Fuck, I just wanna talk!

Come here.

Listen carefully.

If you tell me where JANG is, I'll put you in a Korean jail.

You can come out in a few months.

If you go with them, you'll get death penalty.

Think this through, it's your last chance.

Bring him over.

Boss, what's done is done.

Hey! Hey!

Get in.

- Straight to the airport. - Yes, sir.

You'll get a trial, but you're finished.

So don't get an expensive lawyer.

If you got money to burn, give them to me.

Stupid idiot.

Be careful.

Oops.

The deal went south.

It's better this way, they weren't trustworthy.

Why is it so hard to find a distributor here?

What distributor?

WhY do You ask?!

Perhaps I can be of service to you.

What exactly can you do?

Anything you can imagine.

Take care.

Call me when it's ready.

Yes, I'll give you a call.

Let's move.

Quick, get in!

Did he bite?

They do look the part.

He's a real actor!

My heart was about to burst, but I got it done!

Very good, be quiet.

- Did you do good? - Of course!

- A small token of appreciation. - Thank you, sir!

- We didn't do it for this. - Gonna count it here?

Yeah? Then I'll take it back.

What's with you?

You didn't do it for money.

- Keep your mouths shut. - Of course.

It's so good!

Why aren't you eating?

Eat plenty.

So they let you go?

Yes, they don't get checked when they enter Korea.

But Why'd those officers ask you?

They haven't found a distributor yet.

Were they really officers?

I'm sure.

The Korean cops couldn't do shit.

You know those officers smuggle shit on the side.

We can make a shitload.

You expect me to believe that?

- Yang-tae. - Yes?

Get the axe.

This is a sample from their shipment.

They have 100kg of it.

They can't sell it in China, so they want to sell it here.

They want to meet you to close the deal.

We don't have the manpower, not even close.

- Not eating? - Yes, understood.

- Seok-do, SWAT is no go. - Then get the patrols.

- What's that? Show me. - It's a list of perps.

- Copy and hand it out. - Yes, sir.

Gather around!

Pick out as many young guys as possible.

This can't leak no matter the cost,

we have to get everyone even if it takes all night.

Got it, sir!

- Read it over. - Okay.

Dong-gyun can cover Siheung and Ansan,

and I'll take Garibong and Daerim.

- Vehicles? - We got...

4 vans, 1 SUV, divided into 3 units.

Incoming call!

- Stop! Be quiet! - Quiet! Shush!

Hold on.

Answer it.

Hello?

I talked to my boss.

Where should we meet?

Chuwol Hostess bar near Daerim station at 9PM.

Understood, I'll see you then.

And?

They'll be there.

It's on.

There's still a lot to prep, let's get a move on!

- Good work, eat up! - Thank you.

I should be coming here to have fun.

Hurry UP!

- Let's move! - Moving!

- Evening, sir. - Yo.

We reserved room #7.

- Your people are gone? - Yes, they've evacuated.

We're getting JANG tonight, no mistakes!

- Understand, sir. - Yes, boss.

I'm buying a round afterwards!

Don't get hurt, and guard your positions.

- Who are you looking for? - Thunder, Dragon.

Thunder, Dragon, you got guests!

Those bastards!

Come here! Don't move!

Son of a bitch!

I got you, asshole!

My arm's in! My arm!

You gotta open up when an arm is inside.

Stupid bitch!

Dude, I'm so nervous.

Me too.

- Anything? - Nothing so far.

Intersection is clear.

Target inbound.

Okay.

They're here.

We got 10 bogeys.

Where are the Chinese guests?

Yes, they're in #7.

They're going in.

Get ready.

Line up!

What's going on?

These are my boys, I wanted to introduce you.

Evening, sir!

Sure.

Where's JANG Chen?

JANG Chen!

It's been a while.

Where's HWANG?

You're all dead, assholes!

Mr. HWANG!

Fucking rat...

Out of the way!

Move!

What a fucking lunatic!

Fucking bitch!

Stop! Stop!

Geumcheon Police

MA Seok-do...

Fucking hell...

Son of a bitch!

MA Seok-do!

Asshole!

You bitch!

Die!

Die!

- Look at that... - What's going on?

Die, bastard!

Wait a sec...

Give up the hotel, or you're a dead man!

Stop right there!

- Someone should get him... - What do we do?

We're looking into his whereabouts...

This fucker's slippery...

Hong-seok.

Sir, I found JANG Chen.

Where are you?!

Garibong recycling center.

Don't get involved! I'll be right there!

What is it?

What's up?!

JANG is at recycling center!

Yes, we got his location. Yes, sir!

Recycling center!

Your call cannot be connected...

Bald ass fuck...

What happened?

Cops are ransacking everything.

We gotta go!

Police! Get out!

You fucking rat.

- Get out! - Bastard!

You son of a bitch!

You son of a bitch!

Motherfucker!

Where's JANG Chen?

Hold him down.

- Go after him! - Yes, sir!

Hurry!

Bring me a cup of water.

We're closed...

What?

It's me, the hotel job's done.

I killed HWANG.

Yes.

I gotta fly out to China now, get me my money.

I just did.

Confirm what, dammit!

Okay, where?

I'll see you there.

I want it in Chinese bills.

You go this way, and you that way!

Search every inch!

We're at Yanji diner intersection.

Where's this asshole?

- I'm busy, what! - Boss.

JANG Chen, that bastard.

- He works for GWAK. - Who the fuck is that?

Mr. GWAK from Siheung.

He's con man who's building a hotel.

He got JANG to destroy my shop.

He came to your shop?

Your call cannot be...

Mr. MA...

That fucker...

He told me to give up my hotel.

That bastard GWAK...

- He was quiet for a while... - I gotta go.

Mister!

Sir! Hey!

What happened?!

What's going on?

Sir, are you alright?!

Hey! Goddammit!

Wong-oh!

Wong-oh!

Fucking hell!

Wong-oh, wake up! Wong-oh!

Goddammit!

Hold on, kiddo.

These men will take care of you, okay?

- Mr. MA... - I'm right here.

- China... - What?

He's leaving for China.

China...

I got it.

I'll catch him.

Get a move on!

HWANG.

GWAK that you mentioned, where is this fucker?

Shit, I don't know!

He went out on a rampage without telling us first.

I confirmed that he attacked HWANG's shop.

I'm on the way, so have the money ready.

- I'm not paying him. - What?

You take me for a fool?

How will you handle the backlash?

I never intended to pay that gangster.

Mr. GWAK!

Get him!

Let go!

Let me go, you fuckers!

Mr. JANG.

You can't just do whatever.

What's this?

Your money, $900K.

Are you trying to fuck me?!

How will you get on a plane with cash?

You can withdrawal anywhere with that.

I don't believe you!

I'm serious!

If you're lying to me, you're a dead man!

- Got that? - I understand.

All done?

Buddy.

You wasted so much tissue, you don't even pay tax.

You alone?

Yeah, I'm still single.

Too bad about that ticket, you won't get to fly.

Dammit...

You fucking bitch!

You fucking bitch!

- What's going on? - He's coming out.

Seok-do!

Where's JANG Chen?

He's inside the washroom.

- Go check it out. - Yes, sir!

Seok-do, you did good.

Right, sorry.

Throw this out for me.

I made a bit of a mess, take care of it.

Don't worry, I'll sort things out.

- Go to the ER, okay? - Okay.

- Excuse me. - Yeah?

- Are you his boss? - Yes, I am.

There was a lot of damage, we'll need to claim it.

We're Serious Crimes Unit, we can do this later...

You must be so tired.

We'll need to claim damages, may I get your ID?

Bro, did you sort things out?

Where are you?

Going home, of course.

I don't owe you anything now.

Fucking hell...

Kiddo, let's go get Mr. WON.

Get out, get out.

Get the fuck out!

Wake the fucker in the back!

When did you smuggle in?

I'm hungry.

- When did you get in? - Go sit over there.

I'm hungry.

Speak Korean, asshole! I know you can speak it!

Go easy on him.

Sorry.

Go in that way, on the left.

- Keep going. - Inside!

You, right.

- Your fucking head down! - Left for you.

- Your head down! - Good work.

Fuck off.

Shit, I'm starving...

- So many of you came... - Captain!

Is it true that you wiped out Chinese-Korean gangs?

Can we do this later? At a press conference.

Wait! Did you arrest the boss?

The boss? Of course, what's the point otherwise?

Hey, it's the chief.

Chief!

Of course! I told you we would!

We rounded up everyone!

About 30?

30 men! 30!

It's me we're talking about, I get results, chief!

As soon as I got off, our eyes met.

- I got into it right away. - Afternoon, detectives!

- Hello there. - Hello.

- He was scared shitless! - What's with your eye?

There's blood sausage soup or hangover soup.

- What'd you like? - Hangover soup!

Me too.

Don't eat that, you guys worked so hard.

I'm treating you all to meat and booze today.

Thank you!

Then we should go to Gangnam and drink there!

No, we can just go this way.

- We gotta get real booze. - Yeah, it's got private rooms...

Right here, follow me.

But that's lamb skewer...

There's no private room here.

Sure we do, please go inside.

They got room.

But no liquor...

We'll order some, go inside.

Let's order a small plate.

- Go inside, just eat! - I knew this'd happen.

Got anything expensive?

Seok-do!

The commissioner's asking for you!

What the hell's going on?
