THE CHARACTERS, PLACES, ORGANIZATIONS AND EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.
CHILD ACTORS WERE FILMED IN SAFE SITUATIONS.
It's time to go.
Oh.
Why are you crying now? You were so happy last night.
I'm not crying.
Honey, thank you for holding out all of these.
Congratulations.
How do I look? Cool?
You look great.
Hey, Mr. Park.
Sir.
Please forgive me.
No. I'm sorry, too.
Let me escort you.
See you at the station.
Okay.
Thank you.
You're crying again?
Certificate of appointment.
As of October 24, 2023, Superintendent Lee Hyungjun
is appointed to the Senior Superintendent of Seoul Gangha Police Station.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
The Seoul mayor election is now one week ahead.
Here in SBC yesterday,
Jin Myeongchul from Future Hope Party
had a debate with Wang Jongtae from National Liberal Party.
Here's what I think.
Mr. Jin is from a rich family,
and so are his two sons.
They never understand
how common people's life is.
So, how could he make a policy for them?
I think
a CEO and a Seoul mayor
basically do the same job.
They offer a vision,
revise unreasonable rules,
and promote welfare.
That sort of job
is in my area of expertise.
A company works to make a profit.
What did your doctor say?
I was told to be careful.
It hasn't fully healed yet.
Come on, it's been several days since you broke it.
With such a weak body,
how can you work as a detective?
Look at this smart-ass.
You should've given me CPR instead of hitting me.
Hey.
I also did CPR.
CPR was not enough, so I hit you.
There was no other way.
Aren't you getting too cheeky with the person who saved your life?
If I wasn't there, you--
Gosh, stop. It's enough.
You want any drink?
I'm going for a coffee.
-Vanilla latte. -Okay, iced vanilla latte.
Wake up, Ganghyun!
Wake up!
Bro.
I watched the chairman's debate.
You did?
He did so well.
It's easier said than done.
Oh, is one of them for me?
Oh.
I got it for myself,
but you can take it.
I'll vote for the chairman.
It's okay. Even I won't do that.
Really? Why?
I don't like both of the candidates.
Oh.
- Coffee for me? - Hey.
No, it's for Ganghyun.
What about me?
Go buy it yourself.
You speak casually to each other?
It's been a few days.
You look so close.
We're not.
Yes, you are.
"Approval rating for candidates Jin 46%, Wang 39%"
Let's go.
Yes, sir.
What's that?
Well, I don't know.
Tell them to move it.
Yes, sir.
Ma'am.
Oh.
Tell him to do it later. It's distracting.
Yes, ma'am.
- Gosh. - What's up?
Ma'am.
You'd better not see that.
What's up?
There's... a man...
Why are you stammering?
-That's-- -Get off of me.
No.
Noeul-ro, Gangha-gu?
Okay, I'll be there.
A dead body was found. Let's go.
Is this the scene?
Why?
It's my father's house.
Who's the victim?
It's an outsider.
In Jin Myeongchul's house?
Yes.
Was the victim identified?
No.
Not yet.
Team 1 is there.
Should we send the support team?
No.
Let's not make it complicated.
- Okay? - Yes, sir.
He climbed the wall.
Yes.
There's no bloodstain on the inner side of the wall.
Bloodstains were found outside.
Let's go check it.
He stepped on here
and climbed up the gate.
He was stabbed...
And drove all the way here.
I'll go talk to the witnesses.
Do you know who he is?
No. I've never seen him before.
Did the security alarm wail yesterday?
There's no alarm in the yard
because of cats and birds around here.
Did you notice anything strange around the house?
Anyone suspicious?
No.
I didn't notice anything.
Who is inside now?
Ma'am.
Detectives are here.
Excuse me.
We're from Gangha Station.
Why are you here?
- I'm investigating. - You're a detective?
- Get out! - Calm down.
Please just answer a few questions.
About the dead body outside...
Do you know who he is?
No, I don't.
Where were you last night?
Stop making a fuss and leave.
I was at home yesterday.
We'll do when the investigation is done.
By the way,
how did he
die?
We're not sure yet,
but he seems to have been stabbed.
I don't have anything to tell you.
Stop asking me.
We might call you again.
Keep it.
What?
A dead body?
He seems to have died while climbing over the wall.
Police officers are investigating the scene.
Are you okay?
She's always been like that.
Kind of a consistent character.
Isoo.
Seungju.
What happened? Who's the victim?
We don't know yet.
Hello.
I'm Lee Ganghyun from Gangha station.
Oh, hello.
I'm Jin Seungju.
The victim climbed over the wall
after being stabbed by someone.
What?
Did you have anything on your mind
or anything bothering you recently?
No. Nothing special.
I see.
I heard my mother was shocked a lot.
I should go check her.
- I'll call you later. - Okay.
Seungju.
Are you okay?
I'm scared.
I'm so scared.
What happened?
Here's a light.
Why did he get into that particular house
while bleeding?
We'll figure it out after identifying him.
We identified him.
Han Daehoon, 59 years old.
No criminal record.
He was reported missing recently.
Let's go see his family.
Ask them to rush on forensic analysis.
Check his dashcam and the security cams in the alley.
He...
was dead?
You're not shocked.
I knew this would happen
someday.
He disappeared
six months ago.
He needed to be declared missing if I wanted to divorce him.
That's why I reported him.
Why did you think
Mr. Han Daehoon would die?
I married him ten years ago.
At first,
he was a decent businessman.
But he closed one business
and started another one
again and again.
He was always building castles in the air.
And a few years ago,
he quit all the business and started gambling.
Since then, he hardly came home.
And six months ago,
he disappeared, and I couldn't reach him.
So...
I thought he was involved
in something bad
and died.
How did he...
die?
We're not sure yet,
but he seems to have been murdered.
Does he have anything to do
with Hansu Group?
Hansu Group?
Yes.
No.
Why would he have anything to do with such a big company?
"A dead body was found"
"in the house of Jin Myeongchul, the Seoul mayor candidate"
What's this?
It's an exclusive.
You're doing it again?
I mean, I won't take one side.
I'll keep writing articles.
This is a mere fact.
What's more,
it's a scoop.
What should we do, sir?
Jin Myeongchul is here!
Stop the car.
Mr. Jin.
Is it true that a dead body was found in your house?
Is the victim related to you?
Please say something.
Police is investigating this case.
They will find out the truth about this case.
I don't know who he is
and what's going on
yet.
What if the victim is related
to your family?
If his death
has anything to do with my family,
I'll take the responsibility.
How will you do that?
Honey.
Is he related to you?
What are you thinking?
-Are you suspecting me? -Just answer my question.
No, I don't know anything.
If that's a lie,
you'll be in trouble.
How dare you suspect me?
Alcohol dependency is a mental disorder.
Get a treatment after the election.
How could a dead body be found in my front yard?
Who is he?
I don't know yet.
Your mom might have something to do with this case.
How about you?
You don't, do you?
No.
Mom said she didn't know him, either.
Do you...
trust your mom?
If his death is related to my family...
That's interesting.
I'll take the responsibility.
What about the one I asked you before?
I'm working on it.
Why don't we
reveal it
in this chaotic time?
Good idea.
He was with this man at first.
Who's that man?
This is him. Oh Gwangsik.
Track his location by phone.
Okay.
"Wanted for assault Oh Gwangsik"
- You're early. - Yes. It's urgent.
The autopsy is done.
He was strangled
with something like clothesline.
He has various bruises on his body,
ranging from old ones
to recent ones.
The deadly stab was on the abdomen.
It's 2.8 inches deep.
From the width, maybe it was a jackknife.
Fortunately, he had no organ damage.
He could've survived if he went to the hospital,
but he went somewhere else and died from excessive bleeding.
Why did he do that?
He was so desperate that he forgot his pain.
Oh, I've been stabbed once, too.
Can I take a look?
Where is the wound?
It must've been hurt.
That's my job.
You don't feel pain when preoccupied with fighting criminals.
When an ambulance arrived,
I realized it was painful.
That's what adrenalin does in our body.
It's good to see a healed wound
after seeing dead bodies every day.
Maybe...
he had something desperate in his mind.
Yes, maybe.
Something like anger
or desire.
"Park Junyoung"
Yes.
We got a suspect.
Oh Gwangsik, a previous assailant.
Go to Taegwan Mountain.
I think the victim was stabbed there.
"Wanted for assault Oh Gwangsik"
Where is he?
In Room 501.
How long has he been staying?
It's been four days.
Did he pay?
He paid for two days in advance.
I'm a motel staff.
I'm here for your payment.
I'll pay for it when I leave.
Hey, open the door.
My boss wants you to pay it now.
Gosh, you're so annoying.
I told you I'd pay...
What the hell?
Police.
Damn it.
Hey, hey.
That's not a good idea. There's no descending line.
You might die if you're unlucky.
He's right.
Just come and cooperate.
Okay. Fine.
Oh, look at that!
Look at what?
Oh Gwangsik.
You're arrested for Han Daehoon's murder.
Han Daehoon is dead?
They started climbing together
at 1:10 a.m.
He came down and got on the car
at 1:55 a.m.
"Current time 4:20 p.m."
"Current time 4:40 p.m."
No, it's not me.
You're not what?
Gosh, I mean...
Open your mouth.
Hey, I'm not the one who did it.
You didn't do what?
Just say it.
Listen.
I...
I got a private loan for gambling,
which is from gangsters.
And Han also borrowed a lot from them.
They said if I could collect Han's debt,
they'd write off my debt.
That's why I hung around with him.
You didn't hang around with him
but watched and assaulted him.
It was not an assault.
I just beat him lightly.
I had to make him obey me.
But he still disobeyed you, and you stabbed him in the mountains?
No, it's not that.
Do I have to beat you to make you tell the truth?
He said he knew a way to solve everything.
His debt was about 1.2 billion,
and he said he could pay it at once with this.
That's why I followed him.
- So? - We climbed up the mountain,
and some strangers suddenly appeared and attacked Han.
We'll talk again after the DNA result comes out.
I only peeled apples with that.
I carried it with me to look cool.
He's a petty criminal.
Peeling apples? What a bullshit.
You got a hunch?
Yes, I did.
The forensic results for Han's phone are out.
Oh Gwangsik appears most often on his call list,
but his last call was...
The call was not answered, though.
"Jin Seungju"
I'll go ask him.
Seungju.
Oh, you're here.
- Busy? - Yes.
I'm doing all the company work.
- Have a seat. - Okay.
What's up?
We identified the victim.
Oh.
His name is Han Daehoon.
Do you know him?
I'm not sure.
He looks somewhat familiar.
The last person he tried to call
was you.
Me?
Hold on.
You know,
Father's autobiography was published last week.
We had a publication party here. And you didn't attend.
I think I got his business card that day.
-Thank you. -Congratulations.
- How are you doing? - Good.
Yes.
Oh.
Thank you for coming.
It's been a long time.
Please take care of Seungju.
Sure.
Have a seat.
If the chairman wins the election, are you going to be the chairman?
What do you mean?
Don't play dumb with us.
You'll take that position, of course.
Becoming the chairman of Hansu at 40?
I envy you. I'm still a general manager.
When will it be my turn?
My old man is still healthier than me.
I'll get a chance only if he gets sick.
You guys
should watch your mouth.
Okay?
Mom.
-Should we leave now? -My son.
Escort her.
I'm fine.
Hello.
I'm Han Daehoon.
Is that all?
Yes.
By the way, why did he try to call me?
The victim went to Father's house after being stabbed.
And he called you
right before his death.
If you know something,
please tell me.
Isoo.
Have I ever...
lied to you?
-No. -Trust me.
He's a total stranger to me.
Oh, Mr. Jin.
How may I help you?
I need copies of all the security cam footage
for the day of the publication party.
Can I ask why?
Do I have to explain it to you?
Oh, no.
We'll do it right now.
I'm Han Daehoon.
"DH Investment Consulting Han Daehoon"
Let's talk in private later.
I have something to tell you.
We've met before. Don't you remember me?
You were this tall at that time.
DNA found on the clothesline didn't match Oh Gwangsik's.
So, there are at least two culprits.
-Yes. -Should we release Oh Gwangsik?
Let him stay.
He admitted the assault.
Ms. Lee.
Can I talk to you for a minute?
Detective Jin
will be ruled out of this case.
"Damages and dangers caused by Jin Isoo"
"Please reconsider letting him work as a police officer."
"Damages and dangers caused by Jin Isoo"
The victim might have something to do with Jin Myeongchul's family.
It's not clear yet.
It'll be too late when it becomes clear.
Ganghyun.
Jin is a member of a conglomerate family before being a police officer.
He's different.
I told you before
that he could be dangerous.
Don't get too close to him.
People with huge trauma like that have cracks in their minds.
They'll break someday.
You know,
since what happened to you,
I'd never trusted my colleagues.
But now I realized
what a colleague means.
I want to trust him.
- You know-- - And captain,
please don't sneak through my drawers.
Dad.
If Jin hadn't saved me,
I would've died there.
"Park Junyoung"
Yes.
An article about Jin is up.
About what?
Did you know that you're an illegitimate?
Since when?
Your father
was having an affair?
Did your mother commit suicide?
You don't get along well with Chairman Jin
due to your mom's death?
How do you feel?
Is your mother's death
related to Jin Myeongchul?
Don't you know what time it is? Stop making a fuss!
Be quiet!
Jin, get on.
Get on.
Jeez.
Go.
Stop shooting.
He's busy investigating. You guys go home now.
Dismiss!
Hey, ma'am.
Why are you interrupting?
I'm the town master here.
Show me your name card.
Jeez.
Reporter Go Sangsik.
Are you happy to make money by touching
someone's sore spot?
Go home, everyone.
Call it a day for today.
Go home.
- Dismiss! - Let's wrap it up.
She's right.
And it's no use staying here anymore.
Let's go.
"Secret behind Jin Isoo's birth"
"Death related to Hansu"
"Jin's birth mother took her own life"
Stop the articles at any cost!
Turn the car.
It'll blow over soon.
Interesting articles will keep coming up.
I'd heard that story so many times
that I thought I got used to it.
A lot of rumors were flying around when I was young.
But at some point,
everyone stopped talking about it, so I thought it had faded away.
They're right.
I'm an illegitimate from an extramarital relationship.
Right.
And you
are a rich son
who power-trips
and condescends.
But you're actually generous enough
to hold a funeral for someone without family and friends
and to open an exhibition
for a painter who died unfairly.
They'll need some time to realize that you're quite a decent person
unlike your appearance.
And
if you make a desperate effort,
you might become a decent cop
some time in the future.
Come here.
"12 Pyeongjin-ro"
You want a drink?
I've always wanted
to teach you how to drink
and share a drink with you.
Now I've got the opportunity.
What the hell do you want?
It's not like you.
I'm sorry
to make you go through this.
I'm also sorry
to be a nuisance in your election.
I wanted to be a good father.
-That's why I let you in. -No.
You failed.
Since I became your son,
I've never been happy.
I just wanted
to let you know
that it was not
just a casual relationship.
I met Seonyoung before Heeja.
We went to the same college--
It's too late to tell me that story.
Teaching how to drink
and sharing a drink?
You dreamed of that bullshit...
while hiding everything from me?
It's way too late.
You really didn't know
that I'd go through this if you went for a mayor election?
Yes.
Where are you now?
Come to the hotel. I booked your room.
I'll go to my house.
He's here.
Say something about the scandal.
How do you feel?
Say a word.
Get out of my way before I get mad.
Ganghyun.
Is Jin okay?
He can't be.
You worked all night?
Who else could solve this case?
It rubbed off on you from Jin?
Mr. Park.
Ms. Lee.
I found the suspect.
This car,
this car...
this third car...
and this car. These are all the same car.
You saw the driver's face?
Sure.
-You-- -I identified the car owner.
That's what you wanted, right?
Choi Hyeonbae. He has seven convictions for assault.
Seven convictions for assault?
Hey, Kyungjin.
Great job.
You did it right for the first time in a year.
-Let's go. -Okay.
Great job.
A silver spoon who bragged about himself
was the son of a secret mistress?
Poor punk.
I envied him. How embarrassing.
An illegitimate pretended to be a rich son.
Silver spoon? Bullshit. Get lost, punk.
This arrogant bastard is finally falling.
We'll go get the suspect.
Hey, master key, you're not coming?
455/87 Oseong-ro.
"Delete account"
"Your account was deleted"
Should I disguise myself as a delivery man?
The master key is here.
You scared me.
Who else could solve this case?
Jeez.
Hearing that once a day is plenty.
Who else said that?
We have one more guy like you in our team.
One more guy as cool as me?
He's out.
- That's him? - Yes.
Choi Hyeonbae with seven assault convictions.
Let's get started. I need some refreshing.
Wait.
Let's follow him
and get the accomplice, too.
Let's just get in.
Okay.
What about me?
Where's my gun?
You can't use one yet.
Two, three,
- Freeze! - Police.
That punk.
Damn.
Go help Jin.
Jeez.
You may remain silent
and challenge the legality of arrest...
Special thanks to Jang Hyukjin and Yang Somin
What's going on? Why were you there?
100 million.
I got something
-on Chairman's wife. -What?
He knew that I was cheating,
and blackmailed me.
Maybe I could get a share, too.
Choi wants to confess.
We still don't know who ordered him.
You know who the accomplice is?
I could do everything
to protect my family.
Now, he should know who I am.
Find someone who can finish it clearly.
You ordered his murder, right?
I want the truth.
I can't let that kind of person be the chairman of Hansu.
You didn't trust me.
You lied to me first.
If your brother violated the law,
can you arrest him?
I'll find out the truth.
Stay tuned for bonus clip
What's up?
I'm just...
thinking about our old days.
It's been a while.
