Please thank Choi Yeon-sook for me…
The person you have called is unavailable.
Mr. President, your family is at the safe house.
The Blue House is no longer safe. You must leave now.
…for giving me the time to turn the world
upside down.
Tell Lee Jang-seok
that Jeong Su-jin will be arrested soon.
He should prepare for her interrogation.
It's time for me…
to leave now…
for the sake of the things that should stay.
WILL
You did indeed kill the president!
Jeong Su-jin.
The president you killed…
is Park Dong-ho!
Oh God!
Oh no!
No!
THE WHIRLWIND
EPISODE 12
What's your dream?
To be a whirlwind.
Dong-ho.
What's your dream?
I wish for a world
in which wrongdoers feel shame.
No one can go their entire lives drinking only clean water.
Dong-ho.
Let's have
a glass of spoiled wine.
Just one glass.
Let's drink…
from our own glasses.
Cheers!
Grab the shining glass in your hands
Let's drink for our future, my friends!
Let's drink and give it our all!
SURGERY IN PROGRESS
"And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors."
"And lead us not into temptation…"
"But
deliver us from evil."
Did you just sit by and watch
as our president
climbed that hill all alone?
Before drinking that poisoned drink in front of Kang…
he told me he had given up on his future…
and that he was merely finishing an overdue task.
How scared he must have been…
when climbing that hill by himself.
He is unconscious.
His breathing is very weak.
Let's check his vitals.
You can't come in.
-Let's begin CPR. -Yes, sir.
-100 joules! -Done.
-It's charged. -Move aside. Clear!
"What do we do with this rotting world?"
We're asking the same thing.
But we have different answers.
I'm going all the way to the end, trusting my answer is the right one.
If the world I want to create comes…
I will not be in it.
At 18:45 on July 31,
President Park Dong-ho passed away.
The country is in shock at the sudden passing of the president.
Prime Minister Jeong, who was arrested at the scene,
is currently being investigated at Seoul Central DPO.
Secure the CCTV footage from inside the Blue House.
The parking lot in the front has dozens of security cameras.
At least one should be pointing up at the hills.
You have to find it.
Go eat before we get started.
Yes, sir.
They found your DNA on the handkerchief.
Your clothes and the button found on the hill are evidence of a struggle.
Your dismissal of his bodyguards proves your intent to murder.
I'm going to prove
that it wasn't murder.
Jeong Su-jin.
For the first time, you are where you belong.
The interrogation room.
I'll provide you a way out though.
The one piece of evidence that proves you didn't murder me.
It's my very own will.
If this will is made public,
you'll no longer be a murder suspect
because it'll prove that I threw myself off that cliff.
Do you want it?
My will?
The question hasn't changed.
You can either sink alone
or go down with all the filth of this world.
It is now time for you to choose.
You're trying to use me as an instrument.
Have you forgotten?
In our youth,
we all pledged to become instruments
to realize democracy,
peace,
and reform.
He instructed me to seal the will in the casket with his body
unless you testify first.
He said that the truth about his murder
will be buried with him
unless you reveal the truth about yourself.
Prime Minister Jeong.
The president will be placed in a casket
tomorrow morning.
There's a land that is fairer than day
And by faith, we can see it afar
For the Father waits over the way
To prepare us a dwelling place there
In the sweet by and by
In the sweet by and by…
There are no security cameras pointed at the hill.
But I have camera footage of the sole witness.
I'll send it over now.
It is now time for you to choose.
Not a sigh
For the blessing of rest
In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by…
WILL
We shall meet on that beautiful shore…
CHIEF PROSECUTOR LEE JANG-SEOK
Assemblyman Gu Yeong-gwan,
Assemblyman Jo Dong-hui,
Assemblyman Song Min-gyu…
KOREAN LIBERAL PARTY MEMBERS INVOLVED IN ILLEGAL POLITICAL FUNDING
…Assemblyman Choi Seung-seok,
Assemblyman Choi Jin-yeong,
Assemblyman Jang Yun-jun…
Assemblyman Cha Gyeong-min…
Assemblyman Jung Hun-gi…
CHIEF OF STAFF CHOI YEON-SOOK
Mr. President.
Now,
a whirlwind is coming.
The prosecution has obtained a list of 50 Korean Liberal Party lawmakers
who received illegal political funding.
I will stop the tragedy
that could befall our country.
Vice Chairman Kang's slush fund bankrolled…
I will crush those who sleep in injustice.
I will judge those who reign above the law…
while I try
to pay off the debt to the nation
that Jang Il-jun left behind.
Enraged citizens are demanding the resignation of all lawmakers
and an early general election.
The National Assembly has almost ceased to function,
with all standing committees and plenary sessions canceled.
Happy birthday.
I do hate your guts,
but I guess old habits die hard.
It's all your fault.
-If you hadn't taken my phone-- -You still blame others for everything.
I used to love how consistent you were.
You know, people rarely change.
I wonder if Jeong Su-jin will.
It was Jeong Su-jin
who stopped the investigation into Jang Hyeon-su.
Vice Chairman Kang Sang-un took care
of the Jang Hyeon-su issues.
When Kang Sang-un was making his investments,
Jeong Su-jin was there, wasn't she?
I had no idea
that my husband was accepting that kind of money.
Jeong Su-jin will be released soon.
It's not that easy to clear murder charges…
PRESIDENT PARK'S WILL DISCOVERED
Jeong Su-jin received an enormous gift.
She really knows how to survive when being chased by a predator.
You just have to offer up weaker prey.
Watch yourself.
I'm worried this might be your last birthday.
I mean it.
You may have escaped the murder charges,
but we'll continue to investigate
charges related to the Political Funds Act and bribing justices.
We are also going to request a detention warrant.
I'll see you again very soon.
Did you forget?
Article 71 of the Constitution states,
"If the president is unable to perform his or her duties,
the prime minister acts for him or her."
The moment I walk out of here,
I'll be the acting president of this nation.
Jeong Su-jin!
I will be acting president.
Show some respect.
Dong-ho, the Blue House isn't safe.
PROTESTORS TO STORM THE BLUE HOUSE
I'll come get you with my car--
Jang-seok.
This is
where I should be.
I miss him.
I'll be right there.
The main building is too dangerous, so I'll meet you by the annex.
Jang-seok.
Do you still believe
that the truth is what defeats lies?
What defeats lies
is bigger lies.
Jang-seok.
Just this once,
be my friend…
and not a prosecutor.
I will, Dong-ho.
Call the reporters.
I have an urgent matter
to share with the press.
GOVERNMENT COMPLEX
We've obtained the undisclosed contents of the diary that belonged to Han Min-ho.
A shocking report has revealed that former President Jang
was assassinated while hospitalized at the Armed Forces Capital Hospital.
According to CEO Han's diary,
the cause of President Jang's death was asphyxiation,
and the Prime Minister's Secretary, Lee, is said to be responsible for his death.
Secretary Lee Man-gil is said to have committed the crime
to divert the attention away from the private equity fund investigation
and salvage his political career.
Call for a Cabinet meeting. The prosecution is going to make its move.
We have to take control--
The Prime Minister is said to have admitted that Secretary Lee
assassinated President Jang
during the investigation with the prosecution.
The prosecution has sent investigators for an immediate arrest of Lee Man-gil,
who murdered President Jang--
Lee Man-gil.
It's all fabricated.
I know.
You also fabricated your husband's diary, Prime Minister.
It was also you who told me that Jang Il-jun should never wake up
if he couldn't wake up and save us.
And that I should wait outside…
if I didn't have the courage to watch.
You're the one who killed Jang Il-jun!
Lee Man-gil.
We must find out…
why they're doing this
and what they intend to achieve!
Turn yourself in.
Tell them it wasn't me.
Tell them
you killed Jang Il-jun.
Don't you…
Don't you remember how we got here?
And what we had to do to come this far?
Turn yourself in. I'm begging you.
You know it wasn't me.
-You're the one who-- -Fine!
I killed him.
JEONG SU-JIN CONFESSES TO ASSASSINATING PRESIDENT JANG
I killed him…
with these hands…
and the handkerchief he gave me.
I promised him as I put him to death…
that I would keep his spirit alive by killing him.
As I was delivering the eulogy at his funeral,
I made myself a promise
to make our dream and our time on Earth
a part of our country's proud history.
Pull yourself together, Lee Man-gil. I'm the acting president!
I'll be directing Park Dong-ho's funeral proceedings.
I must turn his funeral
into an opportunity for my political comeback.
Investigators on standby, make your way in.
With these very hands that killed Jang Il-jun…
Lee Man-gil.
Let's make sure it comes true, okay?
And let's write a new history!
SO-YEON
Mom, the TV…
JEONG SU-JIN CONFESSES TO ASSASSINATING PRESIDENT JANG
Prime Minister Jeong, you are under arrest for the assassination of the president.
FUNERAL OF PRESIDENT PARK DONG-HO
My mind has forgotten you for too long
And my legs far too long
Have strayed from you
But with a slender remembrance
Of my heart's burning thirst
Secretly, I write your name
With a burning thirst
Long live democracy!
LONG LIVE DEMOCRACY
Long live
Democracy
Long live democracy!
People say,
"Darkness shall never prevail over light."
There is no light in this country.
Darkness fights even darker forces,
pretending and claiming to be light.
I will clear away the darkness on the left,
crush the darkness on the right,
and create a new light.
I have never once
done politics for the people.
I did it all for myself.
I did it because I couldn't stand the ugliness of this world.
I did it because I couldn't stand being ruled
by the unrighteous.
I, Park Dong-ho,
will take the filth of this world
and step away from the spotlight of history.
WHIRLWIND PARK DONG-HO
It's time for me
to leave now…
for the sake of the things that should stay.
