(Gyeonggi 23 M 2965)

(Munju Hyang)

Let me pour you a drink, sir.

No, thanks. I have to drive.

Oh, come on. You're late, so have a drink.

We've been dreaming of redeveloping Munju.

And it's right around the corner.

Congratulations.

Now that Jin Li Construction is in charge of the project,



you're going to make a lot of money.

And Do Hae Won, the chairwoman of Gwanghyo Foundation will...

use this opportunity to enter the political world.

Yes, thank you.

But I guess the real hero was...

Superintendent Han who let us get rid of the landowners...

who were holding out against the development.

- So let me pour you a drink. - No, thanks. If you'll excuse me.

They say the bidding war for the contractor is...

like burying their heads in the sand.

But what if Jin Li Construction doesn't choose...

your in-law's company, Oh Il Construction?

My arm hurts, so maybe my hand will slip.

Oh, don't be like that, Chairman Lee.



You said you don't want any money.

But you wanted me to pick your in-law's company. Okay.

This means we are in the same boat now.

But you're too proud to have a drink with a gangster, right?

A gangster? What are you talking about?

You're a respectable businessman.

I'm a public official.

So I try not to drink alcohol when I bring my car.

Is that so?

Superintendent Han, just have one drink.

Just one drink.

Go on. Pour him a drink.

Come on.

Here it is.

You know what?

I'm a man of few words, and I'm very resourceful.

I'd be happy to be of help.

I guess you really needed a drink.

Let me fill your glass.

Yes, sir.

I heard you're training at the taekwondo studio.

My job is to ensure public safety and prevent crime in Munju.

It's important to ensure public safety in Munju.

Because it's a lucky charm for me.

I made money and found love in this place.

Love?

With a girl who lives here?

It's not Oh Ji Hwa, the daughter of Manyang Taekwondo Studio, is it?

Do you know my Ji Hwa?

Did she go to Gwanghyo Foundation's school?

Ji Hwa and my son went to the same school.

So are you going out with her?

No, we're not going out.

I'm just into her.

I'm going to marry her.

One more drink.

Try not to become the talk of the town.

You should just focus on business.

Why?

It seems you're blinded by love too.

Isn't that why you're trying to help your in-laws?

Why her? What do you like about her?

I touched her shoulder once.

She just pushed me and punched me in the stomach.

Her eyes were shining brightly.

She was so cool.

Are you sure 3786 is Lee Chang Jin's car?

Do you see the parking space for VIPs?

Look across from it.

He's sitting in the car.

It's been about an hour.

The police station is the place he hates the most.

But yet he's here and waiting for someone.

I checked the entry log.

This isn't the first time he paid a visit to the agency.

He also came by on November 5 last year.

Do you know where he visited?

Chief Superintendent's office.

Chief Superintendent's office?

Chief Superintendent Han?

Yes, Inspector Han Ju Won's father.

One of my senior officers works at the security unit here.

I asked him if anything happened to high ranking officers like him...

around November 5.

He told me Chief Superintendent's secretary called them that day.

Why are the cops crawling out...

and searching every corner of Manyang-eup right now?

They're going from door to door...

and making a big fuss of it!

Is that enough reason for me to barge in or not?

Chairman Lee.

Serial murders.

Munju will always remind people of the word.

Darn it.

You sit your butt down and listen to me.

The secretary said an unpleasant man in his 40s visited the office.

And that he was making a scene.

- And? - She called back 10 minutes later.

And said Chief Superintendent Han said everything was okay.

She thought she was making a big deal out of nothing...

and asked not to leave any record of it.

But if Chief Superintendent Han is related to the case...

- Inspector Han would be... - Kang Do Su.

It's not the right timing to say that out loud.

Yes, ma'am.

It feels like Inspector Han is one of us now, so I'm worried.

One of us?

Yes. We're kind of like the Avengers unofficially.

Me, you, Dong Sik...

Inspector Han, and Park Jeong...

You were friends with those two since you were kids, right?

Yes.

Back then, I let my kicks do the talking.

Are you all right?

And Dong Sik always stood up for Jeong Je.

- How dare you! - Gosh, I'm sorry.

Boss, are you all right?

No, I'm not.

I'm trying really hard to be all right.

But to be honest, I'm worried.

That Senior Inspector Park...

might be the culprit?

That I might have to choose...

between Dong Sik and Jeong Je.

Here he comes.

Congratulations, Chief Superintendent Han.

- Congratulations. - Congratulations?

I heard you were nominated to become the next Commissioner General.

I heard the announcement is imminent.

I don't know what you're talking about.

You can go on in.

- Goodbye, sir. - Congratulations.

- Congratulations. - Congratulations.

Did you just see that?

That darned jerk!

What is he saying?

"That darned jerk" in Russian.

Lee Chang Jin is really mad.

He's mad at Chief Superintendent Han?

They're up to something, aren't they?

Let's go to the station.

We're not going to follow him?

Why did he come all the way to the Police Agency...

to meet with Chief Superintendent Han?

Because he couldn't get in contact with him?

Let's find out how desperate he was to get in contact with him...

by requesting his cellphone call log and taking a look at it.

(Beyond Evil)

(Episode 13: Bury)

Inspector Han.

What do you think?

If your family member...

did something you couldn't imagine,

will you...

hold onto their hand?

What...

are you up to now?

You're not the type of person to put meaning into family.

Then can I...

trust Han Ju Won?

Even if you find out the truth,

will you make sure it doesn't break?

Urgent Personnel Change.

Han Gi Hwan was nominated as the next Commissioner General.

Turn on the TV.

(Chief Superintendent Han Gi Hwan...)

(nominated as the next Commissioner General)

Your father has become...

the number one police officer in Korea.

Congratulations, Inspector Han Ju Won.

I was told Yu Yeon was passed out.

What?

When Park Jeong Je hit her with his car.

Apparently, she was passed out.

I killed Yu Yeon with my car...

when she was collapsed on the ground.

What...

did you just say?

I killed...

I killed Yu Yeon with my car...

when she was collapsed on the ground.

Did you really...

hit Yu Yeon with your car when she was collapsed on the ground?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

You hit Yu Yeon with a car when she was collapsed on the ground?

Yes. I killed her, Dong Sik.

I'm pretty sure...

Lee Yu Yeon was...

facing the car directly.

What are you talking about?

Officer Im said that she was standing.

There were fractures in the same place below her knees.

Park Jeong Je said that he hit Yu Yeon when she was collapsed,

but Yu Yeon was definitely standing.

He was confessing to me like a madman as his memories came back,

so why would he lie that she was collapsed when she was standing?

But then JL's Lee Chang Jin...

despite not answering his phone...

You killed her.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

But...

I don't think you killed her alone.

No. I...

I killed her, Dong Sik.

Come to your senses, you jerk.

(Oh Ji Hwa)

- Hey. - How's Jeong Je?

I think there's more to the story.

What happened with Lee Chang Jin?

I think he's connected to Chief Superintendent Han.

Chief Superintendent Han?

Han Gi Hwan?

The person he was waiting for in the parking garage...

was Chief Superintendent Han.

But Chief Superintendent Han didn't let him come near him.

Whenever he gets mad, he always curses in Russian.

But he said it at Chief Superintendent Han.

He said, "That darned jerk!"

"That darned jerk"?

I pull up Lee Chang Jin's call log and checked it.

He's been calling him since two days ago,

but Chief Superintendent Han didn't answer a single call.

For the past four days, he called him...

14 times.

Did he call anyone else?

Jeong Je's mother.

He called Councilwoman Do eight times.

He kept calling Chief Superintendent Han,

and he even went to see him.

Lee Chang Jin and Han Gi Hwan.

What kind of relationship do the two of them have?

Why are you bringing up Lee Chang Jin all of a sudden?

What do you mean "all of a sudden"?

Do Hae Won sold Lee Chang Jin land at a cheap price.

Isn't that why we were all...

tailing Lee Chang Jin too?

So...

are you saying Chief Superintendent Han Gi Hwan is...

connected to Do Hae Won and Lee Chang Jin?

In my opinion,

this corresponds to your specialty,

reasonable suspicion.

You're right.

It is open to question.

I understand that Lee Yu Yeon's case and Do Hae Won are connected,

and that Lee Chang Jin and Chief Superintendent Han are...

connected with some type of relationship.

However,

why are you trying to connect Lee Yu Yeon's case to my father?

You think I'm trying to connect...

my sister to your father?

Why are you suspecting my father?

Officer Cho Gil Gu also went to see Chief Superintendent Han.

I believe he said he didn't know why...

That's what Chief Superintendent Han claims.

Did you believe in what Chief Superintendent Han said...

right away?

Officer Cho Gil Gu definitely said...

that it was an order he received from the higher-ups.

Who among the higher-ups could it be?

Superintendent Jung Cheol Mun.

21 years ago, so in 2000,

who was the person who selected Jung Cheol Mun,

who was a violent crimes inspector at Munju Police Station,

and brought him to the Seoul Agency?

Han Gi Hwan.

He was the superintendent of Munju Police Station at that time.

Who was the person that...

closed the case unprecedentedly fast 21 years ago?

("Superintendent Announces the End of Investigation")

Han Gi Hwan.

The superintendent of Munju Police Station.

Furthermore, Lee Chang Jin is looking for Han Gi Hwan like crazy.

I'm not suspecting him because I want to.

All of the evidence is pointing towards your father.

So...

that's why you sent Park Jeong Je home?

What did you say to him?

"You're not the culprit."

"It could be Chief Superintendent Han, so go home."

Yes. That's what I said.

Are you out of your mind?

Okay.

Now...

what will Inspector Han Ju Won do?

- What? - Do whatever you want...

on your own.

You're crazy.

You're a crazy lunatic.

I still haven't received an answer from you.

Can I trust Han Ju Won?

Even if you find out the truth,

will you make sure it doesn't break?

I...

I don't trust you.

I don't trust Han Gi Hwan.

I...

don't trust myself either.

I trust no one.

So whether you trust me or not...

isn't important to me.

(Father)

(Do Hae Won, councilwoman of Munju)

(Han Gi Hwan, Chief Superintendent of the Police Agency)

(Please help us find Yu Yeon.)

(The new paradigm of construction culture, JL Construction)

(Park Jeong Je, Mother and son, The case from 20 years ago)

(Do Hae Won, councilwoman of Munju)

Park Jeong Je.

Do you want to die?

- Yes. - No way.

What?

After I find the one who killed Yu Yeon.

You can die after that.

Why did your mother...

give money to Lee Chang Jin?

- What? - A month after Yu Yeon died...

your mother handed over a piece of land to him. Why did she?

Son, where were you?

I was worried sick.

Were you worried about me?

Is that why you sent Secretary Jang? To lock me up again?

What do you mean, lock you up?

I just don't want you to get in trouble.

Why would I get in trouble?

Well...

because sometimes, it seems like you're losing your mind.

- Jeong Je. - I remember.

- What? - I remember everything now.

That I hit Yu Yeon with my car.

And that I called you on your burner phone.

Park Jeong Je.

Park Jeong Je, you're late again.

Honey, when will you get your act straight?

What... What do I do, Mom?

- Mom... - Jeong Je?

Say it slowly, all right?

What's going on?

I think... I...

I hit a deer with my car.

- What? - Actually...

I... I hit someone.

Jeong Je? Son?

Where are you right now?

Jeong Je?

Is that why you gave money to Lee Chang Jin?

Why would I give money to Lee Chang Jin?

You gave him the deer farm and the land in Munju.

That's money too.

Well, I needed some quick cash.

I don't think so.

I think you paid him for cleaning up the mess.

That night...

you called Lee Chang Jin out.

Jeong Je, wake up.

(Lee Chang Jin)

Chairman Lee.

I need your help.

If I go down,

our project goes down too.

We're on the same boat, remember?

So I need you here right now.

This is a mess.

You asked him to take Yu Yeon's body,

and you sent me to the mental institute.

Don't you remember?

Son.

Did you tell anyone about this?

To Dong Sik, Han Ju Won, or Oh Ji Hwa.

Did you tell any of them?

- Mom. - You didn't, right?

Mom.

Who killed Yu Yeon?

- What? - I mean Yu Yeon.

Who killed her?

Lee Chang Jin was at the scene.

Why would he come to the scene?

Mom called him there.

And Yu Yeon...

And she asked him to take care of Yu Yeon's body.

We left him with her.

Was she not dead?

- Was she alive? - No.

You're the one who killed Yu Yeon.

Or maybe Lee Chang Jin killed her.

What?

Yu Yeon was standing up.

So maybe someone hit her while she was standing up...

and that's why she died.

What are you talking about? What are you...

Park Jeong Je.

- Yes. - Do you know...

why you're still alive?

Why? Why am I still alive?

Because you need to find who killed Yu Yeon.

That's the only reason why you're alive.

Got that?

Go home now.

What?

Go to your mom and tell her something for me.

Mom.

Who killed Yu Yeon?

You didn't recover your memories.

You're completely out of your mind.

Why am I out of my mind?

You don't remember clearly. You don't.

What do you mean, I don't?

You don't.

You don't remember it correctly.

What do you mean, I don't remember it correctly?

You killed Yu Yeon!

You killed her with your car.

No. Never mind.

Son, never mind what I said.

You're right.

I did kill Yu Yeon.

What?

It would have been nice if you were honest with me in the first place.

It's okay, son.

It was just a mistake.

You just made one drunken mistake.

Mom took care of it.

Took care?

Lee Chang Jin is the one who took care of it.

By the way, why was Yu Yeon found inside the wall in that house?

Don't you want to know?

You definitely said...

you would take care of Lee Yu Yeon's body,

so we should just leave.

And I thought you did for the last 21 years.

And why was that...

found inside the wall in that wench's house?

Yu Yeon's body was buried by Kang Jin Mook.

Kang Jin Mook said...

he gave her back to Dong Sik.

Chang Jin, that punk...

Exactly. That punk didn't take care of anything.

He's been fooling you for 21 years.

But you gave him everything he asked.

Money, land, and everything.

But do you think...

that was it?

Go and tell her that Lee Chang Jin...

is secretly meeting Han Gi Hwan.

Han Gi Hwan?

Lee Chang Jin and Han Gi Hwan are...

keeping a secret from Do Hae Won.

Lee Chang Jin and Han Gi Hwan. They're keeping a secret from you.

They are meeting secretly.

What?

That's not possible.

They despise each other.

They would never meet each other without me.

Even today, Lee Chang Jin went to see Han Gi Hwan.

To the Police Agency.

All the things you have been thinking you knew.

Do you think they are the truth?

What if the two are using you?

You're flattering me.

Yes. Thank you.

Okay, I'll call you back. Bye.

You're such a cold son.

People from the entire country are sending me congratulations,

and yet my only son...

only showed up now without any words of greeting.

Isn't it a bit too early to say congratulations?

What?

You're only nominated as a Commissioner General candidate.

There's still the confirmation hearing left.

You think they won't confirm my appointment?

Being Commissioner General has been your life-long dream.

I'm sure you've been very careful for decades.

Well, that's what every public official should be like.

And you know that's the only thing I expect from you.

Those animals called humans...

are difficult to tame.

It looks like I'm the only obstacle in your life.

It's only morning!

Did you come at this early hour to argue about that?

No.

I'm here...

to brief you about the test report on Cho Gil Gu and Nam Sang Bae.

Go on.

The DNA test report Chief Nam Sang Bae talked about.

That's...

the report on the guitar pick that was found...

at the crime scene where Bang Ju Seon's body was found.

I'm sure Prosecutor Kwon already told you about this.

- So? - And that's...

removed by Officer Cho Gil Gu.

Well, to be precise,

he switched it with a fake one.

And that was Munju's Councilwoman, Do Hae Won's request.

You and Councilwoman Do have known each other for 21 years.

I'm not sure if you can say that we know each other.

Evidence?

You mean evidence to bring...

Cho Gil Gu and Do Hae Won to justice?

- Are you going to punish them? - Of course.

There's no evidence.

And even if we arrest him, Cho Gil Gu won't come clean.

Is that so? Then what should I do?

You can punish Superintendent Jung though.

Superintendent Jung?

Yes. Jung Cheol Mun,

the Superintendent of Munju Police Station.

21 years ago, you promoted him when he was in Munju.

Then you took him to Seoul Agency, and then to the Police Agency.

That Superintendent Jung Cheol Mun.

What about Superintendent Jung?

Do you remember the higher-ups Cho Gil Gu mentioned?

I just did...

what the higher-ups told me to do.

Do you really not know?

I heard it was your order.

That higher-up is...

Superintendent Jung.

He used your name to use Cho Gil Gu.

And he also seems to have...

set Cho Gil Gu up with Do Hae Won.

And you came to the conclusion based on what reason?

Jung Cheol Mun has been...

blackmailing Do Hae Won to get money from her.

For a whopping 20 years.

Father, no matter how careful you are...

Those animals called humans...

are difficult to tame.

I heard there were rumours when he was sent to Munju Police Station.

The rumours had it that Jung Cheol Mun was bribed...

and Chief Superintendent Han covered it up for him.

- That's not... - This is the kind of story...

that reporters and assemblymen like.

Are you sure...

you're going to be okay at the hearing?

(Police Agency)

Sir, congratulations.

This is the moment you've been waiting for.

My heartiest congratulations to you.

(Han Gi Hwan)

- Phone. - Pardon?

Oh, sure. Here.

Sir.

- Get down. - What?

Get down, you punk.

I apologize, sir.

What are you apologizing for?

Well...

Look at me.

How much money did you take from Do Hae Won for 20 years?

How much did you take from her?

I apologize, sir!

Why did you switch the report?

That, I don't really know...

What was on that report that you had to switch it?

I don't know. I really don't know.

Raise your head. Look at me.

What was on the report?

Well...

Do Hae Won's son's fingerprints were found.

I heard it was a mistake.

He accidentally hit the girl...

while drunk-driving.

Senior Inspector Park Jeong Je.

Do Hae Won's son. He's not crazy.

It wasn't a serial killer either.

Kang Jin Mook, that punk, did it.

There won't be any trouble.

I even ordered to remove the switched report...

so it doesn't cause any trouble later.

The NFS staff that tested the DNA...

died of cancer two years ago.

Trust me. There won't be any trouble.

There won't be any trouble?

If you had arrested him then, this would have never happened.

What do you mean, there won't be any trouble?

Sir, what's the matter?

For 20 years, you took the money, right?

You're discarded.

Step down and disappear quietly.

I...

can't do that.

- How dare you? - The CCTV of Kang at the cell.

You ordered me...

to pause the security camera.

Excuse me?

Do you want me to pause the security camera?

Is the suspect Kang Jin Mook?

I want to meet him.

Can I ask why?

It's the case I left unsolved.

It's the case I buried in my heart for my whole life.

I want to see the face of the guy.

Is it a difficult request?

No, it's not.

Of course, I should do your favour.

How about around 5am?

When they hand over the duty to another.

Sir,

it might cause a problem later.

- You think so? - So...

use someone as a pawn.

- A pawn? - There's a guy called Nam Sang Bae.

He's currently the chief of Manyang Police Substation.

He's the direct superior officer of Inspector Han Ju Won.

He was also the officer in charge of the case 20 years ago.

Why are you bringing him up?

He also asked me the same favour.

He asked me to let him meet Kang Jin Mook...

because he had something to ask to him about the case in 2000.

- Using Nam Sang Bae as a pawn? - Yes.

If you meet Kang Jin Mook...

before Nam Sang Bae goes in there,

when it causes trouble later,

Nam Sang Bae will take all the responsibility.

I don't remember that.

You don't?

As far as I remember, the security camera stopped as it's broken.

No?

What's the matter with you?

If someone stopped the security camera on purpose,

it must be Jung Cheol Mun, the superintendent...

of Munju Police Station who acted independently.

To help Nam Sang Bae meet Kang Jin Mook.

Are you trying to claim you didn't meet Kang Jin Mook that day?

Well, it's true that you didn't meet him.

Because the person who came to meet Kang Jin Mook that day...

was Lee Chang Jin from JL Construction.

Do you think I really paused the security camera?

Mr. Han?

(JL Lee Chang Jin)

(Nam Sang Bae)

Have your father not contacted you yet?

It's been already three days...

since you went and told him about Superintendent Jung.

He went to his office at Munju Police Station...

yesterday and the day before yesterday.

He will probably go to work today as well.

Senior Inspector Park Jeong Je.

Did it work out the way you wanted?

Yes.

It worked and I'm waiting.

We're both waiting.

What you said is right, Inspector Han Ju Won.

I'm a crazy guy.

I'm completely ruined.

What are you doing to do?

Are you going to get yourself ruined?

Why would I get ruined?

Your father might ruin you.

- It won't happen. - Why not?

Because your father...

will never commit a crime?

- That's... - Or...

because even if he commits a crime,

you have nothing to do with it?

If...

your father is...

related to the death of my sister,

do you think...

you'll be okay?

Are you...

asking me if I will be okay?

Not you?

Why are you asking such a thing?

Whether I'm not okay or not, why is it important?

You're right.

Why am I asking you such a thing?

Inspector Han. Can we talk for a moment?

Congratulations on your father Chief Superintendent Han's...

nomination for Commissioner General.

I'd like to interview you. Just a few words.

- I have nothing to say. - Stop!

You can't enter!

I guess you don't remember what Chief Nam Sang Bae said.

Over there!

From the line on the ground over there...

to behind the substation building.

It's the land lawfully belongs to Manyang Police Substation.

Mr. Im, you are not allowed to enter the land from here to the end.

It's an arrogation that doesn't make sense.

And...

the chief is not here.

What?

- I mean... - Mr. Im Gyu Seok.

How about a tip-off instead of a trashy interview?

You have a tip-off?

About what?

About alleged bribery of the police.

- Who are you referring to? - Inspector Han.

There's a condition.

Releasing the report right before the hearing on the appointee...

for Commissioner General is my condition.

I'll make sure to do that.

Inspector Han.

You should think through it.

You're right.

I am...

Inspector Han Ju Won.

You're just police officer Han Ju Won?

I'll be back before my shift.

Let's go.

"2914"?

- Yes. - Is this Officer Lee Dong Sik?

This is the Chief Superintendent's office at Police Agency.

What made you call me?

The Chief Superintendent wants to see you.

Yes.

It's a pleasure to meet you, sir. I'm Lee Dong Sik.

Is this the first?

We've never met before?

No. This is the first time.

Have a seat.

Can I get you something to drink?

Let's just get to the point.

All right.

To get right to the point...

I want you to work for me.

I've been watching you because I heard you're Ju Won's partner.

In the future, my organization, the Korean Police Agency,

needs someone like you, Inspector Lee.

So I thought I would take this opportunity to transfer you.

Where will I be transferred to?

The General Investigation Unit at the Seoul Police Agency.

Let's catch all the jerks who are corrupt,

Inspector Lee Dong Sik.

(One week later)

- I heard there's a hearing. - With the superintendent?

- Yes. - Hurry up.

(Kang Do Su)

Go.

Officer Oh. Aren't we going to watch the news?

The Commissioner General Confirmation Hearing is at 10am.

Why bother watching it? Let's just work.

But still, Chief Superintendent Han...

used to be the superintendent of Munju Police Station.

My goodness, guys.

Officer Oh said she feels uncomfortable.

She feels uncomfortable? Why?

No. It's not that.

Let's watch it.

Do Su. Turn on the TV.

Hurry.

Jae Yi. Where's the remote control?

I need to watch the hearing, but I can't find the remote control.

Hey, Oh Ji Hun. Aren't you going to work?

Our team is off-duty.

If you're off-duty, you should watch it at home. Okay?

I was told we were watching it here.

Here? Who?

My sister is on duty, so she can't come,

but Jeong Je and Dong Sik are all meeting us here.

Jeong Je and everyone else is coming here?

Yes. Why?

Is there a reason why they wouldn't be able to come?

Nobody is coming, so you should go. Okay?

You should go.

You should go too.

Senior Inspector Park is here.

Why did you come here?

Well...

I'm not going to run away anymore.

I'm sorry, Jae Yi.

Don't apologize to me.

I'm not the person you should apologize to.

I'm still sorry.

Ji Hun doesn't know.

I don't think Ji Hwa and Dong Sik told him.

Okay.

You're going to accept your punishment, right?

- Yes. - You will, right?

Yes.

You...

have to accept it.

Okay.

You have to accept your punishment.

I will.

(Hearing on Nominee for Commissioner General Han Gi Hwan)

- Please take good care of me. - Of course.

How could your 40 years in a government position...

be so immaculate and clean?

I have so much respect for you, sir.

I'm not worried about this hearing.

Who else could be the leader of 150,000 police officers?

Please take good care of me.

Ju Won, you're here.

Did you say hello to your father?

Not yet.

He will be so happy to find out you're here.

It's all thanks to you.

You can even get a substation officer like me...

into the confirmation hearing.

I guess you really are a prosecutor. Thank you.

You said you wanted to come here...

to witness your father becoming the Commissioner General.

Of course, I should help you out.

Can everyone come to order?

As we have met the quorum,

we will begin the second National Assembly...

Public Administration and Security meeting.

It's starting.

I've never met Chief Superintendent Han before.

I met him once at the Police Agency.

I even shook hands with him.

After you take the oath, please submit...

your signature and written oath to the chairman.

Please take your oath.

Oath.

"I, the nominee,"

"swear to tell the truth..."

"without hiding or supplementing anything..."

"during the confirmation hearing held by the National Assembly."

"February 26, 2021."

Nominee Han Gi Hwan.

Next, we will hear the opening statement from the nominee.

I'm Commission General Nominee, Han Gi Hwan.

I ask for your interest...

and guidance.

Furthermore, regarding all the questions asked today,

I will answer them honestly and sincerely.

Next is the question and answer portion.

I have a point of order.

Assemblyman Han Kyung Soo of Kangmin Party, ask your question.

Okay.

We are gathered to verify the leader...

of 150,000 police officers, who are the foundation of Korea.

I asked that you give an honest answer.

Of course, I will.

Hold on.

(Han Kyung Soo, Kim Young Hoon)

Mr. Han.

You just promised that you will give an honest answer, right?

Yes, I did.

This is an exclusive article from JSB.

Five minutes ago, an article was released that...

Superintendent Jung, a close friend of Nominee Han Gi Hwan,

has accepted bribes for the past 20 years, and Han Gi Hwan knew...

but chose to turn a blind eye to it.

(Commissioner General Nominee)

What do you have to say regarding this article?

That is not true.

You told us you would give honest answers.

Are you sure that it's not true?

If you look at this article,

this person, Superintendent Jung,

bought land for half of what it is worth.

Is this not a bribe?

They lowered the price of the land and gave him money.

This article includes the registration too.

Who's Superintendent Jung?

"Through a long-standing relationship with Han Gi Hwan,"

"he was selected during his time at Munju Police Station..."

"and went to Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency with him..."

Isn't this about our superintendent?

Officer Oh.

Superintendent Jung...

Isn't that Superintendent Jung Cheol Mun?

- What? - Look up the article.

Okay.

Who did he accept bribes from?

- Is it in the article? - It's my mother.

- What? - What?

Superintendent Jung received bribes...

from my mother.

Why does he look so fine?

- Who? - That man. Han Gi Hwan.

He doesn't seem surprised.

It's true that Superintendent Jung bought the land.

It is also true that he bought it for nearly half the asking price.

Then he did receive money.

You were aware of this, but you didn't say anything?

How could you not say anything?

However, that was a result of a debt.

A debt?

The owner of the land needed money quickly,

and they borrowed a certain amount from Superintendent Jung...

and repaid the money with the land.

The evidence to support this...

Creating a claim-obligation relationship itself...

does not violate the law.

But it's clear that one should avoid it as a government official.

A relevant measure was already taken and Superintendent Jung...

was transferred to a local police station accordingly.

If I'm appointed as Commissioner General later,

through grand hearings and inspections,

I will require the police to behave with honesty...

and strengthen morality.

It is a promise I give to you here.

You made a promise.

I will get it done no matter what it takes.

Oh, my, Ju Won.

You came all the way to here just with that?

Assemblyman Han Kyung Soo, your question session is over.

(Confirmation Hearing for Commissioner General Nominee)

Next up is Peninsular Party's...

Excuse me for a moment.

Chief Superintendent, my apologies.

You can't enter.

- Officer Lee Dong Sik? - Excuse me.

How dare you? Get out right now.

I'm Officer Lee Dong Sik from Seoul General Investigation Unit.

Let's arrest...

all the corrupt jerks.

Officer Lee Dong Sik.

What are you doing?

Can't you see we're in the middle of a hearing?

- Get out. - It's a hearing on a nominee for...

Is there a time and a place to administer justice?

Is that so, Nominee for Commissioner General Han Gi Hwan?

(Confirmation Hearing for Commissioner General Nominee)

Lee Dong Sik?

Release my officer in the middle of administering justice.

What is the matter, Officer Lee Dong Sik?

It's arrest without a warrant, sir.

What?

Inspector Han Ju Won.

You're arrested without a warrant on suspicion...

of abuse of authority and abetting Lee Geum Hwa's death.

A murder case?

A murder case?

What is he talking about?

You have the right to remain silent.

You have the right to consult with a lawyer.

You have the opportunity to justify your actions.

And you have the right to seek a writ of habeas corpus.

That crazy guy.

(Nominee Han's Son Inspector Han To Be Arrested During Hearing)

What?

What's going on?

Did he just arrest Inspector Han?

Did Dong Sik do that?

(Hearing for Commissioner General To Be Resumed)

Lee Geum Hwa. You remember her, don't you?

What are you doing?

What do you mean what I am doing?

If you committed a crime, you should be punished.

Inspector Han.

Due to an unexpected situation, we will end the hearing today.

Dismiss.

(Beyond Evil)

I don't think I need to go back to where I was before.

(Han Ju Won)

Ju Won is seeing through you as well, Chief Superintendent.

What do you know about that punk?

October 15, 2000. In the morning.

I said what is it?

Lee Chang Jin who is clever.

Why don't you remember this?

I'll take full responsibility...

of the things that happened because of my favour.

Han Ju Won, you punk!

If you say it,

I'll listen.
