(Delightfully Deceitful)
(All people, organizations, locations, and incidents...)
(in this drama are fictitious.)
Ms. Lee.
Who's that?
What on earth have you done?
Commit fraud.
Why?
That's what I do.
What did you do while I got this?
Did you shed a few buckets of tears?
Who's at the door?
Han Moo Young the lawyer!
Who is it?
Let's talk!
How did you...
It's fine.
Han! Moo! Young!
Come out or I'll come in!
Don't.
What do you want?
Do you know you're pretty weird,
Mr. Han?
You're the weirdest lawyer I know.
- What? - Why?
Why are you inhaling and exhaling at such a rapid pace?
I did some hurried cleaning up.
The place was a mess.
For me?
To let me in?
- What? - But then,
I spared time from my busy schedule to bring you home from the ER.
How about...
some beer as a thank-you?
No, thanks. I have work tomorrow.
That's tomorrow.
- Do you have some beer? - You...
Excuse me.
Did you clean up in the dark?
I expected a lawyer to have books.
Is this the closet?
Let's get some beer.
- You don't have any? - No. I don't drink.
Then...
You have beer.
Lots.
Mr. Han.
Are you...
an alcoholic?
I love it.
Four.
Twelve.
Bro.
Why am I your bro?
Are we family?
Why are you all here?
Is there a party?
Yes, there is.
You didn't know?
Gosh, you...
What's this about?
The kids you gathered by random...
took my money and ran.
Should I beat you up randomly...
or severely?
I'd never seen them in my life.
They wanted to sell...
What a joke.
Hey, he's putting on a show.
He's trying so hard.
Hey.
Kid.
Hey.
Guys.
A toast to your pupils.
(Lee Ro Um: Suffocating)
Why put your can down instead of taking a sip?
Am I the only one drinking?
(Hang in there. I'll send him away soon.)
Anyway,
will you switch shrinks or not?
Why are you so interested in my doctor?
It's just that...
someone I know is a psychiatrist.
I'm not interested.
I'm just saying you should pick a good one.
They're not like fortune-tellers.
That's so annoying.
(It's stuffy.)
(Waiit, send Ko Yong Han, we talk, then we go.)
When will you leave, Mr. Ko?
Why...
are they called "squid rings" and "onion rings?"
What are you talking about?
If you're out of your mind, are you a tree or wood?
What?
It's all...
hereditary.
Is there even a strand of logic?
Come on, Mr. Han.
If you want to be friends, say so.
When you wash your feet,
do you need a raccoon?
What are you talking about?
What should we do if the seas dry...
and the mountains flatten?
My pants...
Help me take these off.
- Take them off for me. - Okay.
- Okay. - Take them off.
Okay.
Okay.
(White Village, Dorim Nature)
Ms. Lee?
Gosh!
Hey!
Goodness. You scared me.
Why? What's up?
Ro Um.
You told me to wait.
Since when were you so obedient?
What did you say?
- Her place... - I asked Ms. Lee.
We're in love.
What?
My place got flooded.
I'm off.
Won't you see me out?
See you out?
Kindly walk me out, please.
All right, bye.
You know, my toilet gets clogged very often.
Last time, it overflowed like this. It was insane.
Like "Parasite."
Would you let me move in too?
Not me?
Yet your female client who is much younger than you...
can stay with you?
I guess you're picky and choosy with whom you help.
She has her own room,
and I'll make sure she leaves as soon as her place gets fixed.
You were going to hide it from me though.
I didn't want you to get the wrong idea.
Thanks to what you did, I'm getting a totally wrong idea.
Mr. Han Moo Young, you're the weirdest lawyer I know.
Oh, that's right.
What happened with that case?
You know, at Dongma Park.
She was released without charge.
I suppose you did your job as her attorney this time.
Ro Um didn't have bad intentions...
I know. He's an ex-sex offender wearing an electronic anklet.
And I bet he provoked her first.
So I understand she had a reason...
for wanting to teach him a lesson.
However,
that's not her job.
In fact, it's what she should avoid the most...
while being on probation.
Punishing others however she pleases.
Don't try to explain her actions to me.
I guess you have no idea because you always run to her rescue...
whether she's stuck in mud or in a swamp.
As for me,
I must make sure she never goes anywhere near muddy mires...
because that's my job.
And don't get too close to her.
After all, she's just a client of yours.
Anyway, thanks for the drinks last night.
(Ro Um)
Da Jung.
Ring Go.
Gosh, it really hurts.
Did I hurt my face too?
A little.
Oh, no. My money maker.
Da Jung, have you eaten yet?
Was it because of the borrowed-name account?
Don't tell me you just had cup noodles.
I bet they ran away because you collapsed.
Will they come back?
They will.
The high school punks who opened the account ran off with the money.
They'll come barging in again if they find out that I'm alive.
So I have to hide for the time being.
Da Jung. You'll eat well even if I'm not around, right?
How much did they take?
About 50,000 dollars?
Don't tell Ro Um about me.
She'll be disappointed if she finds out that I still work in this field.
You're worried about Ro Um now?
Yes, because I'm all hers.
You know that.
They haven't called me yet, have they?
No, not yet.
Okay, all right.
Ouch. Oh, boy.
(Strawberry Farm)
Now, tell me. What did you do?
Let's hear it.
How do you scam others?
- HAPPY. - What?
Hunt, Appointment,
Plow, Propose, Yield.
Hunt, Appointment,
Plow, Propose, Yield.
HAPPY.
(Dongsan Kindergarten)
(Chapter 1: Hunt)
Throw bait and let them take it.
As you know, I threw bait to get the adoptive mother.
I told her that her troublemaker son was a genius.
Use all the info you've obtained...
to gain full control...
over their thoughts.
Ma'am.
- Yes? - For breakfast this morning,
you had braised black beans and stir-fried dry squid strips, right?
- My gosh. - Your husband...
uses scalp coverage hair powder, right?
Yes!
Back in school,
you had the lowest GPA in the entire school.
My gosh!
(Chapter 2: Appointment)
If the bait swells up once they took it,
their mouth will rip.
The funny thing is, depending on what you tell them,
you could make them bite it harder instead of spitting it out,
without realizing their teeth could all fall out.
Ma'am.
Yes?
Honorary Professor John Kohl Williams of Harvard University,
who won the HAA Academic Award...
and was previously nominated for the Nobel Prize in Medicine...
performed this brain test on world leaders.
This is the result of the test performed on ordinary people.
The graphs look totally different, don't they?
Well, the percentage is what really matters.
Why don't you read out the number below Bill Gates' graph?
It's 56 percent.
And your son's?
It's 60 percent?
Throwing the bait is the focal point of any scam.
(Chapter 3: Plow)
Bring any book from home.
The more difficult the book is, the better it'll be.
("Plow")
Open the book to any page and just state the page number.
Page 22.
"You took in a friend's child,"
"signed 15 life insurance policies,"
"killed him, and made it look like he drowned."
"According to the law, which a pushover I know worships,"
"these evil people who killed an 18-year-old boy..."
"and got 430,000 dollars..."
"will be sentenced to ten years in jail..."
"and fined 50,000 dollars at the most."
My gosh. You have it all memorized!
My Einstein cell percentage is only 12.
It's only 12 percent.
My gosh.
Step Four. Propose.
If you want to succeed, you must remember this.
Never make a proposal.
Being born with a brain like his is like winning the lottery.
The problem is that...
he only has a little bit of time left to pick up his lottery prize.
Right now, he's at the peak of his potential.
However, his IQ could diminish very quickly.
I specialize in child psychology,
but as you can see here...
I'm an advisor to an educational organization,
whose name I cannot reveal.
I'll be off, then. Take care.
(Yield)
Why are you being like this?
- Ms. Kwon! - Please!
Please.
How do we get into that educational institution?
There is a way, right?
You know how, don't you?
You can apply...
for the one-year program at the center in San Francisco.
But over a hundred students are on the waiting list every semester.
Most importantly,
the tuition is seriously high.
- How much is it? - In Korean won,
it's about 500 million won.
- What? - Wait.
Give us some time to think.
I didn't say...
that you could get accepted only with money.
Sorry?
Even the parents at the governor level...
are waiting just to get the examination.
Then, why did you tell us?
That was...
because it was such a shame!
As an educator,
disregarding talent would be dereliction of duty.
- Please, ma'am. - You'll have to excuse me.
- No! - You can't just go.
- Just get us on the waiting list. - That's possible, isn't it?
I can't say that it's impossible.
We...
have...
the money.
We got a sizable sum of money recently.
We'll pay this much in advance...
and either get a loan or take out a mortgage...
to pay up to 500,000 dollars.
Is that right?
(Total: 436,032 dollars)
And they just handed over that much money?
I may have left out a few parts.
Ro Um.
Are you actually a con artist?
Have you even been listening to me?
What are you doing?
We need to give it back.
You're insane.
Are you going to leave Korea?
Those parents must have called the police on you already.
They know your face,
and there's a record of the transfer.
Only an amateur leaves a transfer record.
They can't call the police.
Listen to me.
They just can't.
- What's this? - My insurance.
Insurance?
I told you that they couldn't report me.
That's why.
What is it?
Stop yapping and take a look.
What is your plan here?
You're on probation right now.
After you take this from those parents,
what's the next step?
Your goal was to satisfy...
Seo Gye Sook's grudge?
Then, what's your goal?
What is driving you to go this far?
You mocked the only solution that I suggested...
when it was the most effective and realistic.
Just for that,
you put in all that time and effort?
Just admit it.
That I did something that you couldn't.
You're right.
I can't do it. But it's not just me.
No one in this world takes such a measure,
given that they're normal.
Though you said that Ms. Seo was partly responsible,
you related to her position in the end, didn't you?
"Relate?"
Tell me I'm wrong.
Your safety is my first priority.
This was totally unnecessary.
Whether you're a murderer or a con artist,
I don't intend on taking advantage of you.
And this was the wrong way.
Is that so?
Give it back.
I'm sure it's not too late.
Even the phone?
What on earth is it?
Think this through.
You might regret it.
I'll give you a choice.
When I give them the money back,
the phone also goes with it.
If you choose to use the phone, it goes the same for the money.
I'll give you one week.
The passcode is 1234.
Ro Um.
Why don't you answer me?
I asked if Ring Go was on standby.
Ring Go isn't available right now.
Why not?
He's hospitalized. And he's on the run.
Is he still cleaning up after thugs?
Before you criticize him,
put yourself in his shoes for once.
I don't care about that.
Aren't you old enough to decide what's more at stake?
Get Ring Go back in one week.
Are you going to the hospital?
What would I do at the hospital? I'm not a doctor.
Aren't you worried about him?
You know how much he cares for you.
His caring for me is none of my business.
You're only cooperating for something that you want.
Don't get all sentimental on me.
(Daeseo General Hospital)
Mr. Han. I need your help.
Da Jung. What's going on?
I can't go to the police station...
because it's Ring Go's fault.
Please help me.
Come inside.
Please don't tell Ro Um about this.
Why not?
Will you tell me what's going on?
You?
I came to talk to Mr. Han.
I thought he'd listen...
to what you don't even care.
You've met him once, and now you're friends?
I'm only here to ask for help.
Let me hear her out. Is that all right?
There's a guy called Ring Go.
He runs an errand center, and he was abducted.
Abducted?
He was trading fake bank accounts.
He buys bank accounts from naive people...
and hands them over to voice phishing organizations.
The teenagers who sold him bank accounts...
put a payment suspension on them...
and took the money...
from the victims before the scammers got it.
Just give me a second.
We're running out of time.
It's coming out.
Look.
Yes!
Is that our money?
Ring Go was doing something illegal, though.
But the issue is that the scammers think...
that Ring Go is working with the teenagers who ran.
So, they abducted him.
But Ring Go has a condition,
so he may get into serious trouble.
I know those scammers.
They will never cooperate if they think the police are on it.
But I thought that you would understand.
Can you claim that you're his lawyer and get him back...
Then what?
They think that Ring Go was in on it with those teenagers.
What makes you think they'll stop before they get the teenagers?
Where's the money?
You know what to do, don't you?
Do you still need a lawyer?
Ms. Lee.
What can you do?
Make a choice before you get involved.
Darn it.
Must we eat instant noodles by the river in a luxury car?
You don't know what you're saying.
This is what the rich do.
They don't collect sauce packets or lick the yogurt lid,
They eat the drumsticks and throw the rest away.
These days you can buy just drumsticks.
Hey.
It's a figure of speech. You know what I mean.
- Right. - Let's go on a trip.
And eat something expensive.
- I'm in. - Deal?
Deal? Yes?
Are you sure we can do this?
Yes, it's fine.
What they're doing is illegal, so they can't report us.
They'll just have to cut their losses...
and move on.
A toast.
Are we going, then?
Oh, come on.
I got you, little rat.
I'm hungry. Let's go eat.
That rat. Make sure he doesn't get away.
Yes, boss.
I'll get to see Ro Um at last.
(To Do Errand Center)
There are two options.
One, return the money the kids stole,
which is a loss on our part because Ring Go didn't take it.
Two, catch the kids and offer them up.
I'm not the type to accept a loss,
so I opt for the delivery service.
These are the borrowed accounts that Ring Go got from the staff.
Now we need the hacker to do their thing.
I'll cut to the chase.
(Data export)
(Gook Soo Hyun)
What can you do?
Think this through.
You might regret it.
I'll give you a choice.
When I give them the money back, the phone also goes with it.
If you choose to use the phone, it goes the same for the money.
I'll give you one week.
(Seo Gye Sook)
(The stepmom called. She'll give me more money.)
(I'd rather go to prison. I'm sorry.)
Hello?
I have a job.
Who's this?
Lee Ro Um.
Hey.
I need a driver.
- Ring Go's errand center. - Hey.
Right now, it's not a good time.
What do you mean?
I can't...
I can't drive right now.
It's just that Ro Um...
Darn it.
What?
What on earth is going on?
Why is everyone a mess?
Would they be normal?
- What does that mean? - It's been ten years.
For ten years...
No, for almost 20 years...
I asked what you meant.
Why don't you get it?
You were in prison of all places.
Exactly.
I was the one to go to prison.
Why are the rest of you such a mess?
Call the guys who work for Ring Go.
(To Do Errand Center)
I'm Yoo Il, and this is Yoo Neung.
Ring Go's left and right-hand man.
He's okay, isn't he?
Okay.
Why did you go to Han Moo Young?
Do you know what he asked me to do?
The sex criminal's phone you were going to copy.
He asked me to delete the victims' files from the web.
Did he know them?
Of course not.
He cared for complete strangers.
He is a lunatic.
He's a good person.
That's why I thought he'd help.
Who would help people like us...
unless they were that nice?
You asked someone you only met once...
to save Ring Go?
I told you many times, and you didn't listen.
It's different if he were kidnapped.
You need him.
You need Ring Go.
You're on the move not because he means something or...
you're worried but because you need him.
What are you trying to say?
I'm saying you think people are a means to a goal.
(Moran Dongbu Police Station)
- No, to the left. - Darn it.
Seriously? A bit down.
(To Do Errand Center)
- The right... - Stop it.
I can manage.
Go and check out the cars.
(Attorney Han Moo Young)
(To Do Errand Center)
Hello?
Did you find the teenagers?
Yes.
Will you really hand them over to the gang?
You asked me for advice.
I'm outside a police station.
- Who is it? - The lawyer.
He's at a police station.
Get the two kids and the bag of cash.
Check the amount.
- Okay. - Got it.
What then?
It's okay. Let's finish this conversation.
You went to the police to report it.
Yes.
That day...
You asked me for advice.
I gave her my advice.
I'm outside a police station.
To report Ring Go missing.
The advice I could give as a lawyer.
The police will mobilize...
and find the teens who caused the mess.
I wanted Lee Ro Um to hear it too.
Tell Ro Um that...
I'm at a police station,
and that the police will trace Ring Go.
Did telling Lee Ro Um that...
mean something to you?
- It was important. - Why?
All the choices I made that day...
She was the reason I made those choices.
Before you get nosy,
make up your mind first.
- Hello? - Hello, Mr. Han.
Ms. Kim Bo Ra wishes to settle before the end of the week.
If it goes past that,
she'd like to change the amount of the settlement money.
Is that so?
You know, I'll be honest.
We've waited long enough.
As you know, the death was ruled accidental.
I'm sure you're not hoping...
to magically turn the tables.
For Ms. Seo's sake, you should quickly...
Your goal was to satisfy...
Seo Gye Sook's grudge?
(Enter Passcode)
Do you realize what kind of danger Ring Go is facing now?
That gang is in the bottom of the gutter.
The money is no longer our concern.
We should be worried about them taking his organs.
Let the police handle the voice phishing ring.
I don't care about them.
We must rescue Ring Go safe and sound.
What about the safety of the high school kids?
That is none of my concern.
Let them go.
The police must already be on their way now.
So you'd better figure out a way.
A way to keep both Ring Go and the kids safe...
and return the money to the victim.
And make sure the police don't catch on.
Get in the car.
It looks like we have to start all over again.
(To Do Errand Center)
If the police beat us to it, Ring Go will get arrested too.
Even if he's released, the gang will retaliate.
We must move faster than the police.
First, return the money to the victim.
Then let the kids go...
Gosh, I'm so annoyed.
- Ouch, that hurts. - Goodness.
You little jerk.
How dare you take my money?
Where's your phone?
Found it.
- You little... - Sir.
Could you move my hair out of my face?
It's so itchy.
- What? - Shut it.
Seriously, why are you doing this to me?
Where did you hide it?
(Messages)
Gosh, you little...
- What? - You punk. I knew it.
You're so dead.
Hello? Are you the high school kid?
This is Prosecutor Park Kyu Ri...
from the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
Mr. Park Hae Dong?
Is your real name Park Hae Dong?
Well, I can talk to you on his behalf.
What is your relationship with Mr. Park Hae Dong?
Well, I'm...
I'm like his uncle.
Hae Dong is in the shower now.
We found the 50,000 dollars which Mr. Park Hae Dong...
reported stolen at 11:25pm last night.
If Mr. Park isn't available at the moment,
would you like to continue this conversation with us on his behalf?
Pardon me?
Yes, sure. That's fine.
All right. Then we'll need...
your cell phone number and name.
Sure, I'm...
Kim Sam Pal.
My number is 010-845-5738.
He impersonated a prosecutor.
"Your bank account is being used for criminal purposes."
"Move all the money in the account to other accounts..."
"in order to prevent further damage."
After being dragged around for four hours,
the victim sent 50,000 dollars to 5 different accounts.
The psychological torture clouded her judgment.
They threatened her that she'd be held criminally responsible...
if she hung up.
Real civil servants would never threaten anyone like that.
He's a con man.
We've arrested two teenagers for theft.
Since they stated that the 50,000 dollars they stole...
belonged to Mr. Park Hae Dong,
we have to interview him as a witness.
Oh, that money!
It is our money.
Gosh, you punk.
My gosh. Thank you, Ms. Prosecutor.
Because of the investigation,
we'll have to wire you the money.
However, all of Mr. Park's accounts have been suspended.
Mr. Kim, do you have an account that we could use for this?
Yes, sure thing.
Well, are you going to wire the money right away?
We need Mr. Park's consent before we can do that.
Is Mr. Park...
able to come in for an interview with us?
Well...
- Yes, sure. - Great.
Then we'll contact a local office in your area...
and send a patrol car.
Could you tell me your address?
The address is...
Go to the main road, and you'll see a police car.
Watch what you say, or you know what will happen.
You little...
Hey.
Be careful.
It was Ro Um, wasn't it?
Yes, that's right.
Can I meet her?
No, you can't.
I told her I'd take you to the hospital.
So what do you think now that you've met her?
Well, just as I heard.
I got him. He's safe now.
I'll take him to the hospital and head back.
Please put on your seat belt.
Gosh.
- We'll leave now. - Okay.
Mr. Park Hae Dong...
is safe with us now.
And he gave us his consent...
to send the 50,000 dollars to your account, Mr. Kim.
Okay, great.
Then do you just need my account info now?
Yes, go ahead and tell me.
Okay.
Samsam Bank.
Three, three, seven, one,
eight, one, zero, one, nine, six, six, seven, four, five.
Okay, then we'll call you...
on your cell phone to verify that it's you.
Okay, thank you.
Destroy all the data on Ring Go's phone.
Hey, have you seen my phone?
Did I leave it in the car?
(Samsam Bank, Withdrawal)
What is this? How come I missed so many calls?
"Account Holder, Kim Sam Pal. A loan has been..."
What is this?
"Please check your account..."
Hello?
Hello? This is Manager Lee Ji Young from Samsam Bank.
By any chance,
did you receive a call from 010-347-5698?
Ms. Lee!
The prosecutor needs to talk to him.
"The person to commit..."
"any of the articles below for the purpose of fraud..."
"will be sentenced up to ten years in prison..."
"or fined up to 100,000 dollars."
Just a second. I'll put you through to the prosecutor.
- What? - Hello.
This is Prosecutor Seo In Kyung from Seoul Prosecutors' Office.
Wait.
I was talking to a different prosecutor earlier.
You were involved in a voice phishing scam.
Did the caller impersonate Prosecutor Park Kyu Ri?
There's no prosecutor with that name at Seoul Prosecutors' Office.
That's a fraud.
We've been trying to reach you this whole time.
We've noticed a few strange things from your bank account.
There's a high chance the organization we're tracking...
has its hands on your account. That's why I called.
You don't have time for this.
There must be 10,000 dollars being withdrawn each time.
What?
You're right.
Wait, this is...
What should I do?
All your personal information has been leaked.
To stop the leakage,
you must transfer all the balance remaining in the bank...
to the encrypted account that is managed...
by the Prosecutors' Office immediately.
Do you think you can do that?
Yes.
Shoot.
Don't turn off yet. My charger.
Eight, five.
Social security number. It's 771212...
What's my social security number?
I don't even know my social security number!
There.
It's 155487...
What's this? My ID card?
Oh, they ask for so much!
(Identification)
(Ministry of Justice, 180,000 dollars)
That's 180,000 dollars.
Wait.
What's this?
I did it. These punks.
Are they joking?
The number you have dialed is out of service.
What?
- Please check... - Out of service?
What's happening?
- Hello? - This is Prosecutor Park Kyu Ri.
Have you checked your deposit?
What?
Well...
Have you checked it?
Are you Prosecutor Park Kyu Ri?
Yes, at 3:22pm,
I transferred 50,000 dollars.
Wait. Prosecutor Park,
who was it that called my phone?
Pardon? I'm not following you.
Another prosecutor called me earlier...
and told me that Park Kyu Ri was a voice phishing scammer.
Is it still a scam if I give you money?
There was a transfer limit,
so I wired 10,000 dollars each time.
Then,
where did I send the money to?
I'm not sure.
Where did you transfer the money to?
(Transferred 180,000 dollars)
What? My money!
Hey! Which bank is this? Find it!
Hello?
Hello?
Hello, there.
Delivery!
Oh, my.
I've been saved.
Goodness.
Who the heck are you?
Mr. Han?
Yes?
About the phone...
You said that Ro Um took the phone from the foster parents.
What was in it?
(Kim Kyung Jin, Cho and Son Law Firm)
(Missed calls)
Can we talk about that next time?
Sure. We'll end the session today.
You said last time...
that looking away was...
only the process of treatment, not the outcome.
I think I get what you mean.
- Mr. Han. - Yes.
- Did you watch the news? - No.
Check it out. You'll like it.
When it's over.
It's one of the specialties.
Hi.
Sorry.
Why?
I'm Kim Mi Hwa from News Y.
Don't turn on the news.
Woo Young can't watch the news.
We've recently covered the story of a son...
who returned a dead body after he was adopted.
A woman who entrusted her friends with her teenage son...
claimed that his son mysteriously died...
during a summer vacation with his adoptive parents.
The case was closed as an accidental death,
but evidence was found at last.
Don't read other articles. Read mine.
I wrote it beautifully.
("The Last Hope, Proof That It Was Murder")
You won, Ro Um.
("The Son Was Murdered by His Adoptive Parents")
The video you will watch is...
crucial evidence that may turn around the whole case.
While there's no direct description,
please beware of the cruelty of the content.
Over to you, Reporter Kim Ga Jin.
Evidence was found at a rather unexpected place.
The answer was on the phone with videos frequently filmed...
by the biological daughter of the adoptive parents.
The video vividly records...
what happened that day.
- Mom! Dad! - The police have resumed...
the investigation, using the video.
("The Son Was Murdered by His Adoptive Parents")
Mom, Myung Hoon's calling you.
- He's fooling around. Just eat. - Dad.
- Help. - Eat your watermelon.
Mom, Myung Hoon is gone.
(Moran Dongbu Police Station)
The police are already on the way.
So, you'd better find out...
how to keep Ring Go and the students safe...
while returning the damage amount to the victims.
That way, the police won't find fault with you.
(Call)
(Calling)
Find out...
which police station Moo Young called a week ago.
I found this diary at Myung Hoon's school.
Mom, why did you give birth to me?
Myung Hoon...
didn't resent you.
Why did Mom have me?
She'd have lived happily if she hadn't had me.
That's why I couldn't ask her to take me back.
When I grow up and work,
can I look after her then?
Let's hang on.
Let's fight.
Wait just a little longer, Mom.
He worried and cared about you,
and he understood.
I bet that even now, he'll want you to be happy.
Ro Um.
Did you look into it?
I searched Ring Go's center, the nearby police stations,
and even the lawyer's outgoing calls.
I checked if there was a case on Ring Go,
or if the teens were reported missing.
And?
If you think about it,
he didn't know Ring Go's name or where the errand center was.
He never called the police.
Count me in.
Into what?
Let's do what you're doing together.
What am I doing?
Fraud.
(Delightfully Deceitful)
(Special thanks to Jang Yeong Nam)
Do you know the Jeokmok Kids?
We were an elite group of sorts.
I remembered...
what I was originally like.
I'll con people.
I'll show you the difference...
between a lawyer and a con artist.
I landed myself a target, and I need a house.
- Where's the player? - Right here.
Is this plan solid?
You must know that.
Someone saw us.
(All people, organizations, locations, and incidents...)
(in this drama are fictitious.)
Ms. Lee.
Who's that?
What on earth have you done?
Commit fraud.
Why?
That's what I do.
What did you do while I got this?
Did you shed a few buckets of tears?
Who's at the door?
Han Moo Young the lawyer!
Who is it?
Let's talk!
How did you...
It's fine.
Han! Moo! Young!
Come out or I'll come in!
Don't.
What do you want?
Do you know you're pretty weird,
Mr. Han?
You're the weirdest lawyer I know.
- What? - Why?
Why are you inhaling and exhaling at such a rapid pace?
I did some hurried cleaning up.
The place was a mess.
For me?
To let me in?
- What? - But then,
I spared time from my busy schedule to bring you home from the ER.
How about...
some beer as a thank-you?
No, thanks. I have work tomorrow.
That's tomorrow.
- Do you have some beer? - You...
Excuse me.
Did you clean up in the dark?
I expected a lawyer to have books.
Is this the closet?
Let's get some beer.
- You don't have any? - No. I don't drink.
Then...
You have beer.
Lots.
Mr. Han.
Are you...
an alcoholic?
I love it.
Four.
Twelve.
Bro.
Why am I your bro?
Are we family?
Why are you all here?
Is there a party?
Yes, there is.
You didn't know?
Gosh, you...
What's this about?
The kids you gathered by random...
took my money and ran.
Should I beat you up randomly...
or severely?
I'd never seen them in my life.
They wanted to sell...
What a joke.
Hey, he's putting on a show.
He's trying so hard.
Hey.
Kid.
Hey.
Guys.
A toast to your pupils.
(Lee Ro Um: Suffocating)
Why put your can down instead of taking a sip?
Am I the only one drinking?
(Hang in there. I'll send him away soon.)
Anyway,
will you switch shrinks or not?
Why are you so interested in my doctor?
It's just that...
someone I know is a psychiatrist.
I'm not interested.
I'm just saying you should pick a good one.
They're not like fortune-tellers.
That's so annoying.
(It's stuffy.)
(Waiit, send Ko Yong Han, we talk, then we go.)
When will you leave, Mr. Ko?
Why...
are they called "squid rings" and "onion rings?"
What are you talking about?
If you're out of your mind, are you a tree or wood?
What?
It's all...
hereditary.
Is there even a strand of logic?
Come on, Mr. Han.
If you want to be friends, say so.
When you wash your feet,
do you need a raccoon?
What are you talking about?
What should we do if the seas dry...
and the mountains flatten?
My pants...
Help me take these off.
- Take them off for me. - Okay.
- Okay. - Take them off.
Okay.
Okay.
(White Village, Dorim Nature)
Ms. Lee?
Gosh!
Hey!
Goodness. You scared me.
Why? What's up?
Ro Um.
You told me to wait.
Since when were you so obedient?
What did you say?
- Her place... - I asked Ms. Lee.
We're in love.
What?
My place got flooded.
I'm off.
Won't you see me out?
See you out?
Kindly walk me out, please.
All right, bye.
You know, my toilet gets clogged very often.
Last time, it overflowed like this. It was insane.
Like "Parasite."
Would you let me move in too?
Not me?
Yet your female client who is much younger than you...
can stay with you?
I guess you're picky and choosy with whom you help.
She has her own room,
and I'll make sure she leaves as soon as her place gets fixed.
You were going to hide it from me though.
I didn't want you to get the wrong idea.
Thanks to what you did, I'm getting a totally wrong idea.
Mr. Han Moo Young, you're the weirdest lawyer I know.
Oh, that's right.
What happened with that case?
You know, at Dongma Park.
She was released without charge.
I suppose you did your job as her attorney this time.
Ro Um didn't have bad intentions...
I know. He's an ex-sex offender wearing an electronic anklet.
And I bet he provoked her first.
So I understand she had a reason...
for wanting to teach him a lesson.
However,
that's not her job.
In fact, it's what she should avoid the most...
while being on probation.
Punishing others however she pleases.
Don't try to explain her actions to me.
I guess you have no idea because you always run to her rescue...
whether she's stuck in mud or in a swamp.
As for me,
I must make sure she never goes anywhere near muddy mires...
because that's my job.
And don't get too close to her.
After all, she's just a client of yours.
Anyway, thanks for the drinks last night.
(Ro Um)
Da Jung.
Ring Go.
Gosh, it really hurts.
Did I hurt my face too?
A little.
Oh, no. My money maker.
Da Jung, have you eaten yet?
Was it because of the borrowed-name account?
Don't tell me you just had cup noodles.
I bet they ran away because you collapsed.
Will they come back?
They will.
The high school punks who opened the account ran off with the money.
They'll come barging in again if they find out that I'm alive.
So I have to hide for the time being.
Da Jung. You'll eat well even if I'm not around, right?
How much did they take?
About 50,000 dollars?
Don't tell Ro Um about me.
She'll be disappointed if she finds out that I still work in this field.
You're worried about Ro Um now?
Yes, because I'm all hers.
You know that.
They haven't called me yet, have they?
No, not yet.
Okay, all right.
Ouch. Oh, boy.
(Strawberry Farm)
Now, tell me. What did you do?
Let's hear it.
How do you scam others?
- HAPPY. - What?
Hunt, Appointment,
Plow, Propose, Yield.
Hunt, Appointment,
Plow, Propose, Yield.
HAPPY.
(Dongsan Kindergarten)
(Chapter 1: Hunt)
Throw bait and let them take it.
As you know, I threw bait to get the adoptive mother.
I told her that her troublemaker son was a genius.
Use all the info you've obtained...
to gain full control...
over their thoughts.
Ma'am.
- Yes? - For breakfast this morning,
you had braised black beans and stir-fried dry squid strips, right?
- My gosh. - Your husband...
uses scalp coverage hair powder, right?
Yes!
Back in school,
you had the lowest GPA in the entire school.
My gosh!
(Chapter 2: Appointment)
If the bait swells up once they took it,
their mouth will rip.
The funny thing is, depending on what you tell them,
you could make them bite it harder instead of spitting it out,
without realizing their teeth could all fall out.
Ma'am.
Yes?
Honorary Professor John Kohl Williams of Harvard University,
who won the HAA Academic Award...
and was previously nominated for the Nobel Prize in Medicine...
performed this brain test on world leaders.
This is the result of the test performed on ordinary people.
The graphs look totally different, don't they?
Well, the percentage is what really matters.
Why don't you read out the number below Bill Gates' graph?
It's 56 percent.
And your son's?
It's 60 percent?
Throwing the bait is the focal point of any scam.
(Chapter 3: Plow)
Bring any book from home.
The more difficult the book is, the better it'll be.
("Plow")
Open the book to any page and just state the page number.
Page 22.
"You took in a friend's child,"
"signed 15 life insurance policies,"
"killed him, and made it look like he drowned."
"According to the law, which a pushover I know worships,"
"these evil people who killed an 18-year-old boy..."
"and got 430,000 dollars..."
"will be sentenced to ten years in jail..."
"and fined 50,000 dollars at the most."
My gosh. You have it all memorized!
My Einstein cell percentage is only 12.
It's only 12 percent.
My gosh.
Step Four. Propose.
If you want to succeed, you must remember this.
Never make a proposal.
Being born with a brain like his is like winning the lottery.
The problem is that...
he only has a little bit of time left to pick up his lottery prize.
Right now, he's at the peak of his potential.
However, his IQ could diminish very quickly.
I specialize in child psychology,
but as you can see here...
I'm an advisor to an educational organization,
whose name I cannot reveal.
I'll be off, then. Take care.
(Yield)
Why are you being like this?
- Ms. Kwon! - Please!
Please.
How do we get into that educational institution?
There is a way, right?
You know how, don't you?
You can apply...
for the one-year program at the center in San Francisco.
But over a hundred students are on the waiting list every semester.
Most importantly,
the tuition is seriously high.
- How much is it? - In Korean won,
it's about 500 million won.
- What? - Wait.
Give us some time to think.
I didn't say...
that you could get accepted only with money.
Sorry?
Even the parents at the governor level...
are waiting just to get the examination.
Then, why did you tell us?
That was...
because it was such a shame!
As an educator,
disregarding talent would be dereliction of duty.
- Please, ma'am. - You'll have to excuse me.
- No! - You can't just go.
- Just get us on the waiting list. - That's possible, isn't it?
I can't say that it's impossible.
We...
have...
the money.
We got a sizable sum of money recently.
We'll pay this much in advance...
and either get a loan or take out a mortgage...
to pay up to 500,000 dollars.
Is that right?
(Total: 436,032 dollars)
And they just handed over that much money?
I may have left out a few parts.
Ro Um.
Are you actually a con artist?
Have you even been listening to me?
What are you doing?
We need to give it back.
You're insane.
Are you going to leave Korea?
Those parents must have called the police on you already.
They know your face,
and there's a record of the transfer.
Only an amateur leaves a transfer record.
They can't call the police.
Listen to me.
They just can't.
- What's this? - My insurance.
Insurance?
I told you that they couldn't report me.
That's why.
What is it?
Stop yapping and take a look.
What is your plan here?
You're on probation right now.
After you take this from those parents,
what's the next step?
Your goal was to satisfy...
Seo Gye Sook's grudge?
Then, what's your goal?
What is driving you to go this far?
You mocked the only solution that I suggested...
when it was the most effective and realistic.
Just for that,
you put in all that time and effort?
Just admit it.
That I did something that you couldn't.
You're right.
I can't do it. But it's not just me.
No one in this world takes such a measure,
given that they're normal.
Though you said that Ms. Seo was partly responsible,
you related to her position in the end, didn't you?
"Relate?"
Tell me I'm wrong.
Your safety is my first priority.
This was totally unnecessary.
Whether you're a murderer or a con artist,
I don't intend on taking advantage of you.
And this was the wrong way.
Is that so?
Give it back.
I'm sure it's not too late.
Even the phone?
What on earth is it?
Think this through.
You might regret it.
I'll give you a choice.
When I give them the money back,
the phone also goes with it.
If you choose to use the phone, it goes the same for the money.
I'll give you one week.
The passcode is 1234.
Ro Um.
Why don't you answer me?
I asked if Ring Go was on standby.
Ring Go isn't available right now.
Why not?
He's hospitalized. And he's on the run.
Is he still cleaning up after thugs?
Before you criticize him,
put yourself in his shoes for once.
I don't care about that.
Aren't you old enough to decide what's more at stake?
Get Ring Go back in one week.
Are you going to the hospital?
What would I do at the hospital? I'm not a doctor.
Aren't you worried about him?
You know how much he cares for you.
His caring for me is none of my business.
You're only cooperating for something that you want.
Don't get all sentimental on me.
(Daeseo General Hospital)
Mr. Han. I need your help.
Da Jung. What's going on?
I can't go to the police station...
because it's Ring Go's fault.
Please help me.
Come inside.
Please don't tell Ro Um about this.
Why not?
Will you tell me what's going on?
You?
I came to talk to Mr. Han.
I thought he'd listen...
to what you don't even care.
You've met him once, and now you're friends?
I'm only here to ask for help.
Let me hear her out. Is that all right?
There's a guy called Ring Go.
He runs an errand center, and he was abducted.
Abducted?
He was trading fake bank accounts.
He buys bank accounts from naive people...
and hands them over to voice phishing organizations.
The teenagers who sold him bank accounts...
put a payment suspension on them...
and took the money...
from the victims before the scammers got it.
Just give me a second.
We're running out of time.
It's coming out.
Look.
Yes!
Is that our money?
Ring Go was doing something illegal, though.
But the issue is that the scammers think...
that Ring Go is working with the teenagers who ran.
So, they abducted him.
But Ring Go has a condition,
so he may get into serious trouble.
I know those scammers.
They will never cooperate if they think the police are on it.
But I thought that you would understand.
Can you claim that you're his lawyer and get him back...
Then what?
They think that Ring Go was in on it with those teenagers.
What makes you think they'll stop before they get the teenagers?
Where's the money?
You know what to do, don't you?
Do you still need a lawyer?
Ms. Lee.
What can you do?
Make a choice before you get involved.
Darn it.
Must we eat instant noodles by the river in a luxury car?
You don't know what you're saying.
This is what the rich do.
They don't collect sauce packets or lick the yogurt lid,
They eat the drumsticks and throw the rest away.
These days you can buy just drumsticks.
Hey.
It's a figure of speech. You know what I mean.
- Right. - Let's go on a trip.
And eat something expensive.
- I'm in. - Deal?
Deal? Yes?
Are you sure we can do this?
Yes, it's fine.
What they're doing is illegal, so they can't report us.
They'll just have to cut their losses...
and move on.
A toast.
Are we going, then?
Oh, come on.
I got you, little rat.
I'm hungry. Let's go eat.
That rat. Make sure he doesn't get away.
Yes, boss.
I'll get to see Ro Um at last.
(To Do Errand Center)
There are two options.
One, return the money the kids stole,
which is a loss on our part because Ring Go didn't take it.
Two, catch the kids and offer them up.
I'm not the type to accept a loss,
so I opt for the delivery service.
These are the borrowed accounts that Ring Go got from the staff.
Now we need the hacker to do their thing.
I'll cut to the chase.
(Data export)
(Gook Soo Hyun)
What can you do?
Think this through.
You might regret it.
I'll give you a choice.
When I give them the money back, the phone also goes with it.
If you choose to use the phone, it goes the same for the money.
I'll give you one week.
(Seo Gye Sook)
(The stepmom called. She'll give me more money.)
(I'd rather go to prison. I'm sorry.)
Hello?
I have a job.
Who's this?
Lee Ro Um.
Hey.
I need a driver.
- Ring Go's errand center. - Hey.
Right now, it's not a good time.
What do you mean?
I can't...
I can't drive right now.
It's just that Ro Um...
Darn it.
What?
What on earth is going on?
Why is everyone a mess?
Would they be normal?
- What does that mean? - It's been ten years.
For ten years...
No, for almost 20 years...
I asked what you meant.
Why don't you get it?
You were in prison of all places.
Exactly.
I was the one to go to prison.
Why are the rest of you such a mess?
Call the guys who work for Ring Go.
(To Do Errand Center)
I'm Yoo Il, and this is Yoo Neung.
Ring Go's left and right-hand man.
He's okay, isn't he?
Okay.
Why did you go to Han Moo Young?
Do you know what he asked me to do?
The sex criminal's phone you were going to copy.
He asked me to delete the victims' files from the web.
Did he know them?
Of course not.
He cared for complete strangers.
He is a lunatic.
He's a good person.
That's why I thought he'd help.
Who would help people like us...
unless they were that nice?
You asked someone you only met once...
to save Ring Go?
I told you many times, and you didn't listen.
It's different if he were kidnapped.
You need him.
You need Ring Go.
You're on the move not because he means something or...
you're worried but because you need him.
What are you trying to say?
I'm saying you think people are a means to a goal.
(Moran Dongbu Police Station)
- No, to the left. - Darn it.
Seriously? A bit down.
(To Do Errand Center)
- The right... - Stop it.
I can manage.
Go and check out the cars.
(Attorney Han Moo Young)
(To Do Errand Center)
Hello?
Did you find the teenagers?
Yes.
Will you really hand them over to the gang?
You asked me for advice.
I'm outside a police station.
- Who is it? - The lawyer.
He's at a police station.
Get the two kids and the bag of cash.
Check the amount.
- Okay. - Got it.
What then?
It's okay. Let's finish this conversation.
You went to the police to report it.
Yes.
That day...
You asked me for advice.
I gave her my advice.
I'm outside a police station.
To report Ring Go missing.
The advice I could give as a lawyer.
The police will mobilize...
and find the teens who caused the mess.
I wanted Lee Ro Um to hear it too.
Tell Ro Um that...
I'm at a police station,
and that the police will trace Ring Go.
Did telling Lee Ro Um that...
mean something to you?
- It was important. - Why?
All the choices I made that day...
She was the reason I made those choices.
Before you get nosy,
make up your mind first.
- Hello? - Hello, Mr. Han.
Ms. Kim Bo Ra wishes to settle before the end of the week.
If it goes past that,
she'd like to change the amount of the settlement money.
Is that so?
You know, I'll be honest.
We've waited long enough.
As you know, the death was ruled accidental.
I'm sure you're not hoping...
to magically turn the tables.
For Ms. Seo's sake, you should quickly...
Your goal was to satisfy...
Seo Gye Sook's grudge?
(Enter Passcode)
Do you realize what kind of danger Ring Go is facing now?
That gang is in the bottom of the gutter.
The money is no longer our concern.
We should be worried about them taking his organs.
Let the police handle the voice phishing ring.
I don't care about them.
We must rescue Ring Go safe and sound.
What about the safety of the high school kids?
That is none of my concern.
Let them go.
The police must already be on their way now.
So you'd better figure out a way.
A way to keep both Ring Go and the kids safe...
and return the money to the victim.
And make sure the police don't catch on.
Get in the car.
It looks like we have to start all over again.
(To Do Errand Center)
If the police beat us to it, Ring Go will get arrested too.
Even if he's released, the gang will retaliate.
We must move faster than the police.
First, return the money to the victim.
Then let the kids go...
Gosh, I'm so annoyed.
- Ouch, that hurts. - Goodness.
You little jerk.
How dare you take my money?
Where's your phone?
Found it.
- You little... - Sir.
Could you move my hair out of my face?
It's so itchy.
- What? - Shut it.
Seriously, why are you doing this to me?
Where did you hide it?
(Messages)
Gosh, you little...
- What? - You punk. I knew it.
You're so dead.
Hello? Are you the high school kid?
This is Prosecutor Park Kyu Ri...
from the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
Mr. Park Hae Dong?
Is your real name Park Hae Dong?
Well, I can talk to you on his behalf.
What is your relationship with Mr. Park Hae Dong?
Well, I'm...
I'm like his uncle.
Hae Dong is in the shower now.
We found the 50,000 dollars which Mr. Park Hae Dong...
reported stolen at 11:25pm last night.
If Mr. Park isn't available at the moment,
would you like to continue this conversation with us on his behalf?
Pardon me?
Yes, sure. That's fine.
All right. Then we'll need...
your cell phone number and name.
Sure, I'm...
Kim Sam Pal.
My number is 010-845-5738.
He impersonated a prosecutor.
"Your bank account is being used for criminal purposes."
"Move all the money in the account to other accounts..."
"in order to prevent further damage."
After being dragged around for four hours,
the victim sent 50,000 dollars to 5 different accounts.
The psychological torture clouded her judgment.
They threatened her that she'd be held criminally responsible...
if she hung up.
Real civil servants would never threaten anyone like that.
He's a con man.
We've arrested two teenagers for theft.
Since they stated that the 50,000 dollars they stole...
belonged to Mr. Park Hae Dong,
we have to interview him as a witness.
Oh, that money!
It is our money.
Gosh, you punk.
My gosh. Thank you, Ms. Prosecutor.
Because of the investigation,
we'll have to wire you the money.
However, all of Mr. Park's accounts have been suspended.
Mr. Kim, do you have an account that we could use for this?
Yes, sure thing.
Well, are you going to wire the money right away?
We need Mr. Park's consent before we can do that.
Is Mr. Park...
able to come in for an interview with us?
Well...
- Yes, sure. - Great.
Then we'll contact a local office in your area...
and send a patrol car.
Could you tell me your address?
The address is...
Go to the main road, and you'll see a police car.
Watch what you say, or you know what will happen.
You little...
Hey.
Be careful.
It was Ro Um, wasn't it?
Yes, that's right.
Can I meet her?
No, you can't.
I told her I'd take you to the hospital.
So what do you think now that you've met her?
Well, just as I heard.
I got him. He's safe now.
I'll take him to the hospital and head back.
Please put on your seat belt.
Gosh.
- We'll leave now. - Okay.
Mr. Park Hae Dong...
is safe with us now.
And he gave us his consent...
to send the 50,000 dollars to your account, Mr. Kim.
Okay, great.
Then do you just need my account info now?
Yes, go ahead and tell me.
Okay.
Samsam Bank.

Okay, then we'll call you...
on your cell phone to verify that it's you.
Okay, thank you.

Hey, have you seen my phone?
Did I leave it in the car?
(Samsam Bank, Withdrawal)
What is this? How come I missed so many calls?
"Account Holder, Kim Sam Pal. A loan has been..."
What is this?
"Please check your account..."
Hello?
Hello? This is Manager Lee Ji Young from Samsam Bank.
By any chance,
did you receive a call from 010-347-5698?
Ms. Lee!
The prosecutor needs to talk to him.
"The person to commit..."
"any of the articles below for the purpose of fraud..."
"will be sentenced up to ten years in prison..."
"or fined up to 100,000 dollars."
Just a second. I'll put you through to the prosecutor.
- What? - Hello.
This is Prosecutor Seo In Kyung from Seoul Prosecutors' Office.
Wait.
I was talking to a different prosecutor earlier.
You were involved in a voice phishing scam.
Did the caller impersonate Prosecutor Park Kyu Ri?
There's no prosecutor with that name at Seoul Prosecutors' Office.
That's a fraud.
We've been trying to reach you this whole time.
We've noticed a few strange things from your bank account.
There's a high chance the organization we're tracking...
has its hands on your account. That's why I called.
You don't have time for this.
There must be 10,000 dollars being withdrawn each time.
What?
You're right.
Wait, this is...
What should I do?
All your personal information has been leaked.
To stop the leakage,
you must transfer all the balance remaining in the bank...
to the encrypted account that is managed...
by the Prosecutors' Office immediately.
Do you think you can do that?
Yes.
Shoot.
Don't turn off yet. My charger.
Eight, five.
Social security number. It's 771212...
What's my social security number?
I don't even know my social security number!
There.
It's 155487...
What's this? My ID card?
Oh, they ask for so much!
(Identification)
(Ministry of Justice, 180,000 dollars)
That's 180,000 dollars.
Wait.
What's this?
I did it. These punks.
Are they joking?
The number you have dialed is out of service.
What?
- Please check... - Out of service?
What's happening?
- Hello? - This is Prosecutor Park Kyu Ri.
Have you checked your deposit?
What?
Well...
Have you checked it?
Are you Prosecutor Park Kyu Ri?
Yes, at 3:22pm,
I transferred 50,000 dollars.
Wait. Prosecutor Park,
who was it that called my phone?
Pardon? I'm not following you.
Another prosecutor called me earlier...
and told me that Park Kyu Ri was a voice phishing scammer.
Is it still a scam if I give you money?
There was a transfer limit,
so I wired 10,000 dollars each time.
Then,
where did I send the money to?
I'm not sure.
Where did you transfer the money to?
(Transferred 180,000 dollars)
What? My money!
Hey! Which bank is this? Find it!
Hello?
Hello?
Hello, there.
Delivery!
Oh, my.
I've been saved.
Goodness.
Who the heck are you?
Mr. Han?
Yes?
About the phone...
You said that Ro Um took the phone from the foster parents.
What was in it?
(Kim Kyung Jin, Cho and Son Law Firm)
(Missed calls)
Can we talk about that next time?
Sure. We'll end the session today.
You said last time...
that looking away was...
only the process of treatment, not the outcome.
I think I get what you mean.
- Mr. Han. - Yes.
- Did you watch the news? - No.
Check it out. You'll like it.
When it's over.
It's one of the specialties.
Hi.
Sorry.
Why?
I'm Kim Mi Hwa from News Y.
Don't turn on the news.
Woo Young can't watch the news.
We've recently covered the story of a son...
who returned a dead body after he was adopted.
A woman who entrusted her friends with her teenage son...
claimed that his son mysteriously died...
during a summer vacation with his adoptive parents.
The case was closed as an accidental death,
but evidence was found at last.
Don't read other articles. Read mine.
I wrote it beautifully.
("The Last Hope, Proof That It Was Murder")
You won, Ro Um.
("The Son Was Murdered by His Adoptive Parents")
The video you will watch is...
crucial evidence that may turn around the whole case.
While there's no direct description,
please beware of the cruelty of the content.
Over to you, Reporter Kim Ga Jin.
Evidence was found at a rather unexpected place.
The answer was on the phone with videos frequently filmed...
by the biological daughter of the adoptive parents.
The video vividly records...
what happened that day.
- Mom! Dad! - The police have resumed...
the investigation, using the video.
("The Son Was Murdered by His Adoptive Parents")
Mom, Myung Hoon's calling you.
- He's fooling around. Just eat. - Dad.
- Help. - Eat your watermelon.
Mom, Myung Hoon is gone.
(Moran Dongbu Police Station)
The police are already on the way.
So, you'd better find out...
how to keep Ring Go and the students safe...
while returning the damage amount to the victims.
That way, the police won't find fault with you.
(Call)
(Calling)
Find out...
which police station Moo Young called a week ago.
I found this diary at Myung Hoon's school.
Mom, why did you give birth to me?
Myung Hoon...
didn't resent you.
Why did Mom have me?
She'd have lived happily if she hadn't had me.
That's why I couldn't ask her to take me back.
When I grow up and work,
can I look after her then?
Let's hang on.
Let's fight.
Wait just a little longer, Mom.
He worried and cared about you,
and he understood.
I bet that even now, he'll want you to be happy.
Ro Um.
Did you look into it?
I searched Ring Go's center, the nearby police stations,
and even the lawyer's outgoing calls.
I checked if there was a case on Ring Go,
or if the teens were reported missing.
And?
If you think about it,
he didn't know Ring Go's name or where the errand center was.
He never called the police.
Count me in.
Into what?
Let's do what you're doing together.
What am I doing?
Fraud.

Do you know the Jeokmok Kids?
We were an elite group of sorts.
I remembered...
what I was originally like.
I'll con people.
I'll show you the difference...
between a lawyer and a con artist.
I landed myself a target, and I need a house.
- Where's the player? - Right here.
Is this plan solid?
You must know that.
Someone saw us.
