STRANGER
ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS, PLACE NAMES AND CASES IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.
Yes.
How can it be
someone in the prosecution?
I guess it is easy to miss what's right in front of you.
You all worked so closely with him. How can you not have known?
We do all the work while they just act cool and important.
Don't even get me started on team dinners. They go out for dinners so often.
You couldn't catch the culprit because you were too close with him.
What Captain said was right.
People should keep some distance from each other.
God.
Did he actually live here?
Mr. Hwang.
Yes.
Yes, I do.
Why did you kill him?
Because that scum
deserved to be killed
with my own hands.
I contemplated every single day.
I contemplated how to kill him.
I wanted to find the best way to kill him
so that he can understand my pain.
What pain?
Of getting burned by fire.
Do you know why people say "hellfire"?
I heard that pain from being burned by fire is the worst of all.
That was what that little body had to endure.
That delicate skin...
He was completely burned.
He came back
as a black scorched mass.
I'm talking about my son.
He was six.
His hands were so soft.
That morning, I held that hand of his and took him to his kindergarten.
I got him on the bus.
I told him to follow his friends and get on.
Have fun, okay?
Have a good day.
-Don't fight with your friends. -Bye!
Yes, the bus is about to leave.
It's Mom. She's on the phone now.
Right. Yes.
I'll call you. All right.
Bye!
-Bye! -Okay.
The bus just left. All right.
Yes, I'll pick him up in the evening.
Okay.
I promised him that I'd pick him up in the evening.
-It's reported that they'll proceed. -This is breaking news.
Around 4:10 p.m. today, tires of Incheon-bound tour bus
exploded near Yeongjong Interchange.
A fire broke out after it crashed into the guardrail,
and dozens of people on the bus including kindergarten children and teachers
were killed or injured in the accident.
It wasn't an accident.
It was not an accident.
There's a device called stabilizer.
It helps vehicles maintain balance, but the bus company had removed it
in order to save cost.
They used recycled tires that were patched up with rubber.
The driver had gotten fired in the past for looking at his phone while driving.
However, the verdict was...
They blamed it on the faulty construction of the guardrail.
The guardrail.
The guardrail?
That is not what happened.
I took a leave of absence for a year and did everything
to find out why my son died.
I wanted to find out why my son
had to die because of that guardrail, which no one knows who installed it
because all records had conveniently disappeared.
It was a murder.
They're guilty of murder.
The bastards in the bus company killed all those people.
But only the driver got a three-year sentence.
The owner of the company?
The public officials who received bribes and allowed the company to operate?
In total, 14 kids aged around 4 to 5 died because of them,
yet those pricks didn't even spend a year in prison.
Did someone have their back?
A broker.
He asked a high-ranking authority to downplay the case,
and before that...
That bus shouldn't have been allowed to operate to begin with.
The kids were going on a field trip that day.
The bus could operate until that day
because of the broker.
Was that broker Moo-sung Park?
I have a wish.
I hope that my son
died...
right at that moment.
The moment the accident happened
and the bus got turned upside down.
Right at that moment,
before the fire spread.
I hope that he didn't feel any pain
and instantly...
I hope he died instantly.
His body...
His body got burned,
but I hope it happened after he died.
I've been praying every single day.
I've never forgotten about him, even for a day.
Hey.
Welcome back. I'm glad to see you.
Those who are alive must go on living.
Try to bury him in your heart
and forget about what happened.
Good.
Who's the high-ranking authority
that downplayed the scope of the case as per Moo-sung Park's request?
The chief prosecutor here.
The chief prosecutor of the western office.
It was two years ago. Are you referring to
Mr. Sang-wook Bae?
He pressured Incheon Prosecutors' Office.
You just admitted your motive.
How did you kill him?
That was me.
Analysis lab
I had planned it for a long time.
Is this the customer service center? I think my TV is broken. What should I do?
Where is 75-3?
What about Jin-seob Kang?
He was part of my plan.
I'm really sorry.
Was I part of it too?
-Yes. -Then what about Jin-seob Kang's death?
That I didn't expect.
Are you saying
that you came up with the entire plan?
Why? Do you think I couldn't do that on my own?
I had been picturing it in my head over and over for a long time
since the moment I found out that Moo-sung Park was the broker.
Then why have you done nothing to Mr. Bae, the former chief prosecutor?
That son of a bitch...
Even after what he did, he wanted to become a member of Congress...
I'll be sure to make him stand trial.
He'll be dragged to court like a dog to face the law which he trampled upon,
and every one of his corrupt and wrong deeds will be revealed.
I'll be sure to watch it.
Why did you harm Ga-young, then?
To let people know
what the so-called leaders of our society
exchange amongst themselves in return for people's lives.
I figured she'd wake up and disclose all men to whom she's given sexual favors.
You don't think
the chief of Yongsan Police Station was the only one, do you?
Mister.
All guys spend money on women.
What do you want me to do?
Shall I meet your wife in my school uniform?
Ga-young is still very young, but she's just like Moo-sung Park.
He uses money,
whereas she uses her body. That's the only difference.
It sounds like you're deluding yourself.
Whether they become someone's brokers or use their bodies,
don't you think you have no right to punish them?
Have those with the right done anything?
Is that why you killed Eun-soo Young as well?
Ms. Young...
That wasn't me.
Why did you kill her?
I don't care whatever happens to me from now on.
I already gave up on my future when I started this.
But Ms. Young's murder...
I...
I have nothing to do with it.
You said you don't care whatever happens. Then why did you rush to the airport?
Weren't you trying to flee the country because you knew you'd be caught?
I don't have anything else to say.
Why did you kill Ms. Young?
I'm going to ask you once again.
Why did you kill her?
Did killing him
make you feel better?
It felt like
my heart had been completely empty
since my son died.
But that void
has been filled with fear.
The way he was looking at me.
The way he writhed as he was dying.
And the blood.
He declined an autopsy on his son back then.
He was scared that soot might be found in that little boy's lungs
which would confirm that he had burned to death.
She had a severe convulsion in his car earlier.
She had a convulsion?
When she was hiding in the underground parking lot.
I guess it was because she had never left the ward before.
I should've figured it out a long time ago.
Yes, this is Won-chul Kang. I'm sorry for calling so late.
Yes, that's what happened.
Speaking of which, we'll put in a request for two search warrants.
Please issue them right away.
Congressman Sang-wook Bae.
That's right. The former chief prosecutor, Sang-wook Bae.
The other one is for a seizure of a company that's related to the case.
I know it's the weekend,
but please take care of it first thing in the morning.
Thank you.
We'll get in trouble if the evidence on Mr. Bae isn't strong.
At the moment, it's just Mr. Yoon's claim.
We'll find out only after we investigate him.
He wouldn't have talked nonsense.
By any chance, did you know
that the former chief prosecutor meddled in the trial for the bus case?
No, I did not.
Even assistant chief prosecutors didn't know about it.
How did Mr. Yoon know about it?
He's specialized in internal investigations, you know.
But he said that he didn't kill Eun-soo.
What's your thought on that?
I don't know anything anymore.
I really hope he didn't go that far.
I'll investigate more.
You should call it a day.
You got a lot done today.
You've arrested the culprit.
Congratulations.
This is the footage of the Yongsan-gu serial murder case culprit
getting arrested at the airport after a fight with the police.
This serial killer, who has terrorized all residents of Yongsan-gu,
was an employee of Western Seoul Prosecutors' Office,
which is causing a bigger stir.
-Oh, it's you. -Yes, I'm home.
Do you know the killer?
Of course.
Was he holding a grudge against Moo-sung Park too?
I'm not sure. I don't know that much yet.
That fellow, Moo-sung Park, was too greedy for his own good.
Yes.
Have you found the rats?
I gave different information to each of my two secretaries,
but neither of them made a move.
-Different information? -Yes.
I told them I have a visitor from Ukraine
and gave them different hotel names.
I actually had a foreigner stay at each hotel,
but neither of them tried to contact him or reacted in any way.
You should go get some rest.
Good night.
The Prosecutor's Office Conducts Investigation on Additional Crime.
DAEJUN VILLA
He was caught at the airport out of all places.
Was it a coincidence?
I thought you'd be asleep.
We didn't get to finish our conversation earlier, you know.
You should go see Soo-jung.
I know that she's very independent, but she still needs her mom.
I can't go, but you should visit her.
I didn't expect things to unfold like this.
You snooped on my assets, and now you want me to leave?
What excuse would you have come up with if Soo-jung wasn't in the States?
I'll have to make a public disclosure of all of my assets soon,
including what you own as well as all properties under Soo-jung's name.
That's why I looked into it.
If that was the case,
all you had to do was talk it over with me in advance and...
why do you want me gone?
It'll be better for you to be away when the process commences.
People will get awfully jealous of our wealth.
Come back when things quiet down.
Don't forget about me no matter how much fun you have with Soo-jung.
Okay?
I don't regret it.
I'm talking about going to Sung-jae's trial that day.
You said that I shouldn't have come.
I don't feel that way.
Because I attended it,
you can be here with me now.
Why should I regret it?
You looked so beautiful that day.
I saw you sitting in the audience,
and your face lit up the entire courtroom.
-What about now? -Now?
You're still beautiful.
Hello?
Do you want to meet that high school girl who sent the letter tomorrow?
Then what?
You can ask her when and where she met that man and what she was wearing.
You want me to find out the details?
All right.
Are you home now?
Yes, I'm home.
The place where I said something unnecessary and caused someone's death.
I'm here now.
Why did I answer Ms. Young's call?
It wasn't even for me.
Why did I pick it up and make her come here?
Was I possessed by something?
What was I possessed by, then?
You didn't do anything wrong.
I was the one who asked Mr. Yoon to join our team in the first place.
The special investigation's goal was
to catch the killer and dig up on the Moo-sung Park scandal,
yet I recruited the killer himself to our team.
Why did he kill him?
Among the former chief prosecutors of our office,
there's a man named Sang-wook Bae.
What about him?
He and Moo-sung Park colluded
to conceal the truth about the accident that killed Mr. Yoon's son.
Even so...
How can he treat someone's child like that
when he's devastated by his son's death?
Even if he had chosen to live his life like that...
What do you mean by that?
His place is...
I saw his place and...
He got divorced too. It must've been shortly after the accident.
When something goes wrong with a child,
parents end up
hating each other.
Shouldn't they gather strength at times like that?
They should be there for each other.
I guess families like that do exist somewhere out there.
What about your parents?
Why didn't you tell me about your brain surgery?
It's nothing important.
Is the pain gone?
Yes, it's gone.
That's all I needed to know.
Tell me if the pain comes back.
Well, there's nothing I can do even if you tell me.
You should still tell me if it hurts.
I can at least take you to a hospital.
About Ms. Young...
He said he didn't kill her.
Mr. Yoon said that?
Why am I still addressing him politely?
Did Se-won say that to you himself?
I'll need to investigate further to find out what happened, but her death
might not have anything to do with you inviting her to your place that day.
Get some sleep.
You should too.
What a long day.
You said nothing about this even yesterday.
I suddenly got the urge to go see Soo-jung last night.
You've held it back for a long time. I know how much you like to travel.
-I'll see you soon. -All right.
See you later.
I'll drive.
Okay, sir.
You're going to drive?
It's a beautiful day.
I'm leaving.
It's not a big deal. Why are you smiling ear to ear?
Dad, it's something you've never even done yourself.
See you later, Father.
The sky hasn't been this clear in a long time.
This is what the sky actually looks like.
It's a good time of the year to travel.
What is it?
DONATION AGREEMENT
Let's move your cash to your scholarship foundation
just for the time being.
THE DETAILS OF DONATION
It says I'm donating 80 billion won to my foundation.
Yes. We have to move it there in order to get it all back
after the public disclosure.
I'll tell those in the foundation.
-Aren't you hungry? -No, I'm not.
-You haven't eaten anything. -I'm fine.
Honey.
Let's go.
Goodbye.
Hello, this is Chang-jun Lee.
I'm calling about Prosecutor Joon-sik Gong.
Yes, the former division head.
He'll stand trial soon.
No one can say things about him going
to the legal affairs team at your company.
You know that, right?
Yes, Mr. Song. I'm sorry to bother you on your day off.
I'd like to meet with you today.
Yes. Please meet me at my office in an hour.
How is there no trace of Ms. Young's blood?
Those clothes were covered in blood.
I guess he wore something else that day.
Do killers have to wear the same clothes every time they kill someone?
He must get grossed out too.
First, let's find the person who bought the knife.
Gosh, I thought it was all over.
What are you doing here?
Did Mr. Yoon really do it?
No one is making it up. I mean, he admitted it himself.
There's plenty of evidence as well.
Does that mean he killed Ms. Young too?
He's insisting that he didn't, but...
He's just wasting his energy by denying it. We're...
Gosh, damn it.
He got caught on the run after killing her because she figured it out.
No one would believe him.
You know what?
I can't believe that this was only a few days ago.
I know. The serial killer was among us.
And the victim who was soon to be killed by him.
Why did we have no clue? He was right beside us.
I wish people wear labels saying whether they're evil or nice.
I wish that too.
Even many of us here wouldn't fall into exactly one of the categories.
They're leaving now to carry out the confiscation of the bus company.
Okay.
I'm sorry that you have to leave when you just got here.
You all must be busy. I'm sorry I took up your time. See you all later.
-Bye. -Have a good day.
-Oh, this. -Gosh.
Bye.
What did you mean when you said many of us here can't be categorized?
I was referring to someone specific.
You think he's a nice person as he seems to be working hard to catch the culprit,
then you see him dumping everything on others
and wonder what he's really like.
Whom are you talking about?
Captain.
He begged Kyung-wan on his knees the day before he came clean.
The point he tried to make was that he didn't do anything wrong.
I only found out about it because I ran into him that day.
For goodness' sake.
People are more or less the same.
No one is that horribly evil or angelically nice.
Those of us that belong to the common herd just go where our lives take us.
What if going with the flow like that
takes you to a place you don't even know?
The seizure itself is a prosecution's job, so don't step on anyone's toes.
They changed the name to continue operating after killing the kids,
so don't go easy on those pricks. Got it?
-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.
PROSECUTOR SI-MOK HWANG
Gosh, it looks like time has been on pause here.
What brings you here?
Did we neglect what was right in front of our eyes? Is that it?
After Eun-soo...
I assumed that things went haywire for him after what happened to her.
I thought that was why he was running away.
Who are you talking about?
Mr. Chief Secretary.
Where did he go?
His wife came by the office to see him.
They talked about divorce.
Then he got ready to leave the country without telling anyone.
Getting divorced and leaving the country? When and where?
That I don't know. I just got a quick glance at the itinerary.
Anyway, it doesn't even matter anymore because he's not the killer.
Who cares where he's going?
Right.
He certainly doesn't have the guts to kill anyone.
He's just a materialistic guy who uses his wife.
Mr. Yoon
is saying that he didn't kill Eun-soo.
It sounds like you believe him.
Do you remember what we talked about at Mr. Kang's office a while ago?
I said that Mr. Young must have been framed like that
because he knows something.
Some documents went missing on the day that Eun-soo died.
They're about Hanjo Group, and Mr. Young had been keeping them at home.
It looks like Eun-soo took them, but...
If she died when she had them with her...
What if she died because she had them?
It must've been Chairman Lee.
There's one more person.
Chang-jun Lee.
Gosh, he just can't get his name crossed out from the suspect list.
I'll need to investigate Mr. Yoon further to find out more,
but we can't dismiss the possibility that it was Hanjo's doing.
That being said,
the man in the photos I sent to you the other day...
Excuse me for a second. Si-mok Hwang speaking.
Yes.
No, I'll come down.
What's the matter?
It's Mr. Young.
What brings him here?
Why can't I meet the culprit?
Mr. Yoon is refusing all visitors.
I just want to see him. I can't even do that?
Is that really why you're here?
There's something I have to ask him.
I have to ask you something as well.
Let's sit down and talk.
Coming all the way here must've been tiring.
What went missing? What exactly was it about?
It's...
-Here you go. -Thank you.
Since his children were young,
Yun-beom Lee has distributed
his assets to them little by little
and bought his company's shares with them.
Knowing that switching to a holding company
meant that any dividend it receives from its subsidiaries is tax-exempt,
he has evaded hundreds of millions of won in taxes.
When I heard that Hanjo Distribution went public,
I thought something was off.
Hanjo Distribution...
Moo-sung Park invested everything he had in that company before he died.
I didn't know about him back then.
I knew that Chairman Lee's children were involved.
Had you pushed ahead with that investigation,
Ms. Yeon-jae Lee would've been...
Chang-jun's wife?
She would've been arrested for tax fraud.
Whether she was directly involved or not doesn't matter.
Then, Mr. Lee must've been in a position
where he either had to betray you
or put his wife behind bars.
Those must've been his only options.
That's why he cried when he came to see me.
What?
Did he ask you to stop the investigation?
He didn't say anything.
I think that was when Chairman Lee was busy
cooking up his scheme to get rid of me.
Then it wasn't about an affair or things like that. He did it to save his wife.
An affair?
It's nothing, sir.
That means Moo-sung Park lied to me until right before he died.
Is there a chance that the killer
has an association with Chairman Lee?
No association has been confirmed yet.
You don't know anything either?
No. I apologize, sir.
I need to ask him directly
and find out who's behind him.
I must ask him myself.
Let me meet him.
Who's the scum
that killed Eun-soo...
Sir.
You know how Si-mok is.
He's the most trustworthy prosecutor in the entire country.
He'll bring the truth to light, so please just trust him.
Let me take you home, sir. I'll give you a ride.
I've worked under Mr. Lee for over a decade,
yet I still can't figure out
who he really is.
It is true that he has changed a lot though.
I'm sorry.
I beg your pardon?
Your shoulder.
Get out, you scumbag!
You shouldn't worry about me.
Because you're so considerate, wolves like Chairman Lee...
What does the lost document look like?
It's the one I used to use at the training institute.
It must have the institute's logo on.
CHIEF SECRETARY OF BLUE HOUSE CHANG-JUN LEE
The institute's logo.
The logo.
The institute's logo...
You're here on your day off.
-Why are you here today, sir? -Go home.
How can I go home when you're here to work, sir?
Get going now.
Yes, sir. Have a good day.
Why didn't he say anything about it?
He caught me in the act.
Is Mr. Chief Secretary in his office?
Yes, but may I ask who you are?
-Please come in. -Thank you.
-Shall I make some tea? -Drop this off immediately.
You don't need to come back.
BLUE HOUSE
Cheongsol Scholarship Foundation
A scholarship foundation?
I'd like you to start getting ready for selling the bank.
Already?
Yes. Why wait?
You did a great job at marketing the bank
saying that you've secured a lump sum from Hong Kong as an investment,
so the stock price will go up in no time.
Yes, that is true.
The stock price will crash when we pull out the investment.
When retail investors start crying over their losses,
external meddling will begin right away.
I'd like it to be sold before that happens.
There's one thing that concerns me though.
What is it, sir?
If the payment from it gets deposited directly into my father-in-law's account,
it might get traced.
Hence, I'd like it to meander a little.
Our majority shareholder is no longer Chairman Lee.
It's now Mr. Sung-jae Lee. Didn't you know about it, sir?
My brother-in-law?
Has the ownership of the shares been transferred to him?
Yes.
Then what will happen to the profit from JR Holdings purchasing the bank?
It'll go to Mr. Lee.
The account is held in Swiss,
so you have nothing to worry about.
Oh, I see.
Yes.
Yes, it's me.
I just sent you the signed copy with Ms. Lee's signature,
so take care of it as soon as you receive it.
She's voluntarily donating her assets.
Please make that clear.
All right, then.
CONGRESSMAN SANG-WOOK BAE
Hello, Congressman Bae. It's been a long time.
I guess you've heard.
Yes, there must be a search and seizure going on at Sepoong Transportation now.
I didn't expect that you'd be affected by the Huam-dong case.
I don't think you're in a situation where you can worry about saving face.
The killer must've told them everything by now.
It's only a matter of time before your name comes up.
Yes, that's what I was waiting to hear.
I'm sure there will be something I can do for you.
Yes. I'll see you tomorrow, then.
I initially assumed that you were the one who wanted to proceed it quickly.
But oddly, he didn't even know about the change in majority shareholder.
All right. I'll call you again soon.
CHANG-JUN LEE
The subscriber you're trying to reach is unavailable now. Please leave a message.
What on earth is he up to?
He even used me as an excuse.
DONG-JAE SEO
Come to my office now.
I'm back.
I'm sorry for making you work on your day off.
Please don't worry about it.
I'm so confused and disturbed that I can't really relax anyway.
Here it is.
The airport is huge, which means there are many security cameras.
I heard that the team there spent the whole night editing the footage
to gather all the parts where Mr. Yoon is captured.
What was the other thing? Oh, I reviewed every call on his call history,
but they were all for his work at the special investigation team.
It doesn't even look like he spoke to anyone over the phone personally.
Please see if he had a burner phone or a phone under a different name.
Sure.
TERMINAL AREA 3, SECOND FLOOR
Oh, over there...
There he is. That's Mr. Yoon.
He vanished instantly.
On the lower right corner.
Oh, you're right.
Which floor is he on?
ESCALATOR 3, THIRD FLOOR
He just got to the third floor, right?
International Departures.
CHECK-IN COUNTER K, THIRD FLOOR
CHECK-IN COUNTER, THIRD FLOOD
Did he know that we were after him?
He seems very much on guard.
Is he thinking where he should go?
I guess he didn't even have time to get a ticket before rushing to the airport.
He's walking away.
AREA J, THIRD FLOOR
DEPARTURE HALL
FOOD COURT 5, THIRD FLOOR
Why didn't he leave right away?
I bet every second mattered.
GATE 14, THIRD FLOOR
He's going back to the check-in area.
CENTRAL AISLE, SECOND FLOOR
Why does he keep looking around?
If I were him, I would've fled right away without wasting my time.
He's looking for someone.
He's not on guard.
What? Looking for whom?
I can tell that he's looking for someone.
His accomplice.
Was he supposed to meet him there?
I don't care whatever happens to me from now on.
I already gave up on my future
when I started this.
But Ms. Young's murder...
I have nothing to do with it.
You said you don't care whatever happens. Then why did you rush to the airport?
Weren't you trying to flee the country because you knew you'd be caught?
I don't have anything else to say.
Please send Mr. Yoon to the interrogation room.
Sure.
How did you send that letter to Sungmoon Daily ?
I asked a girl I met on the street to do it for me.
I met the high school girl.
Where did you meet her? And how did you ask her?
It was an alley in Sinchon.
It was near Sinchon.
I asked her to send a letter to Sungmoon Daily for me.
She said she followed his instructions and sent the letter at the post office.
What was that girl wearing?
She said he must've known her age roughly as she was wearing her school uniform.
-Her school uniform. -What color?
- Brown. -Brown.
So you're the one who tipped off Sungmoon Daily ?
You already know the answer.
Then why did you choose Sungmoon Daily out of all media outlets?
Why did you send it to Sungmoon Daily ?
The same reason as why you gave them the information on Matsuyama.
I knew that the CEO of Sungmoon would publish it as a cover story.
How did you know that he'd respond like that?
I was in charge of internal investigations for seven years.
I should know that much.
Is that why you knew what only those directly involved would know?
Is that also why you knew about how Mr. Sang-wook Bae meddled in the trial?
No one here knew about it.
Collecting intel was my job.
Then let's hear more about it.
How did you find out that Mr. Bae pressured Incheon Prosecutors' Office?
I worked hard on it for a year...
Right, so give me the details of what you did during that one year.
There's no way he made it obvious
and it's not like those who were pressured would tell you about it.
How did you find out?
If you didn't find out yourself,
did someone tell you about it?
I see that you're trying hard to protect your accomplice.
You must've gone to the airport to meet up with him.
You planned to flee together.
Isn't that why you kept looking for someone?
You looked more desperate than a little boy looking for his mom.
Did he leave without you? He must've had your itinerary.
He's the one who killed Eun-soo.
That's why you insist that you didn't kill her.
It was a collaboration between you two even though he betrayed you.
I mean, he ran away without you.
Or is he still in the country?
Is that why you're protecting him?
Are you two like brothers?
Is that it?
The person you were looking for at the airport
wasn't your accomplice.
You went straight to the departure hall with your passport,
but you had no interest in leaving the country.
If you were to flee the country because of what you did,
you should've gotten on whatever flight that was available and left.
Instead, you kept looking for someone.
Had that person been your accomplice, you would've called him
or set a time to meet up so that you didn't have to wander everywhere.
There's no accomplice. I did everything alone.
Someone else must've been at the airport at the time you got arrested.
You must've gone there to catch that person, not to flee the country.
You went to the entrance of the departures area
and came back to buy a ticket
because you had concluded that he already went in.
You must've wanted to get inside to catch him. Who's that prick?
-I've got nothing to tell you. -Who is that son of a bitch?
You said you've given up on your future and that you don't care whatever happens,
yet he made you run to the airport. Who is he?
How did it feel?
When you saw the dead body of Eun-soo
and the knife with the rose motif, which you used to use, right beside her.
When you thought that someone killed her, pretending to be you.
When you realized that the person schemed
to make the murder look like a part of the serial case to screw you over.
You had to catch him.
You must've wanted to catch him at all costs. Why?
You think you're not one of those psychos who kill people for no reason.
You keep telling yourself that all criminals deserve to be killed.
You're worse than those psychos.
All of your experience must've helped you find the killer quickly.
Tell me if I'm wrong.
INVESTIGATION REPORT
Have a look.
This man is the killer.
You went there to catch him.
I have nothing to say.
Why are you trying to protect him?
You're putting up with people saying you got caught while fleeing
just to protect this son of a bitch. Why are you keeping quiet?
This prick is running farther away
-while you're wasting my time like this. -I have nothing to say.
I don't need an attorney. I will exercise my right to remain silent.
Mr. Yoon.
I'm sure there's a reason.
A reason you can't tell me.
I'll find it myself.
It must be hard to go from wearing the judicial robe to serving someone.
Not at all, sir. I'm still a public official.
It looks like you still feel very attached to your old job.
Sir, what do you mean by that?
Aren't you the one who leaked it?
The intel on Matsuyama.
Matsuyama...
Oh, are you referring to what was on the news a little while ago?
Sir, I'm flattered to know that you think I'm that competent,
but how could I leak such information when I knew nothing about it?
I had no idea until they started going on about it on TV.
Have some tea.
Thank you.
Did the CEO of the bank come by Chang-jun's office today?
My apologies, sir.
PROSECUTOR SI-MOK HWANG
Well, someone did come by to see him, but I don't know who he is.
Is he a CEO of a bank?
Did you see anyone else?
Did anything else happen?
Mr. Lee sent me on an errand as soon as his guest arrived,
so I don't know anything else. I apologize.
What was the errand?
He asked me to deliver a letter to a scholarship foundation.
But when I got there,
I learned that Ms. Lee is the chairwoman of the foundation.
Yes, sir.
Call Mr. Moon at Cheongsol Scholarship Foundation.
Right away, sir.
Hello, Mr. Moon.
There's something I want to ask you.
What did my son-in-law send you today?
He's moving money?
I never gave him permission!
Did you have to call at that moment? I was with Chairman Lee.
You remember the photos I sent you a little while ago, right?
Photos of the man who sneaked into my place.
Yes, I do. Why do you ask?
Can he be someone who works with Chairman Lee or Mr. Lee?
How can I know that from those photos alone?
His face wasn't clearly visible.
When I saw you at Mr. Kang's office,
you mentioned Chairman Lee's executive assistant.
Mr. Woo?
Is there a possibility that he could be the man in the photos?
Are you saying Mr. Woo sneaked into your place? Why?
The man sneaked into my apartment
right after I put a stop on the weapon import.
Eun-soo, who saw him that day, got killed,
and the documents related to Hanjo went missing too.
Hold on a second.
Hey, did you say Eun-soo saw this man?
Yes.
-Is this a coincidence? - What do you mean? Why?
I think this man is Mr. Woo, Mr. Byung-jun Woo. But...
He's not in the office now.
You said you just saw Yun-beom Lee, right?
But Mr. Woo isn't there now?
No, he isn't. This was the first time I saw Chairman Lee without him.
He was like Chairman Lee's shadow.
Hey, Si-mok.
Can all of this be a coincidence?
Please see if you can find Byung-jun Woo in yesterday's outbound passenger data.
Byung-jun...
Those who know Byung-jun Woo.
Those who know about the jealousy Sungmoon's CEO has been harboring.
Those who can find out about Mr. Bae meddling in
the trial for the accident using his authority.
Those who knew that Mr. Woo was leaving the country yesterday afternoon.
The one who can move Mr. Yoon
to make him chase Mr. Woo.
Is Mr. Park not home yet?
Sir.
Killing a mutt
will just make you a butcher.
If you have to kill someone,
you should hear me out first.
FATHER
Mr. Hwang!
The name, Byung-jun Woo, is on yesterday's outbound passenger list.
ALL EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.
STRANGER
It's time for you to be honest, Father.
Bring Chang-jun to me right now!
We must strike them with full force.
If we approach them rashly, we'll be crushed.
Control the media before they come up with imaginative stories.
- Do you think you won this game? -That's the only thing I regret.
You will regret that you've messed with us for the rest of your life.
Who is "us"?
-Let's go catch the murderer. - Request Interpol to issue a red notice.
Were you talking about me?
-I was thinking about you. -Mr. Hwang?
