Sang-hun.
Sang-hun, look at me.
Are you all right?
Yeong-min.
You came. Thank you.
Thanks, Yeong-min.
How's my father-in-law?
Is he okay?
He passed away.
Three days ago, in a car crash.
I'm coming from his funeral.
Father...
died in a car accident?
Does that make sense to you?
What the hell did they do to him?
Sang-hun, who did what?
Tell me.
What were you doing?
-What?
-What the heck were you doing
until he ended up like that?
I thought you'd help us.
I want to help.
That's why I came here.
Then...
Let's get out of here.
We'll go and see the chairman.
What did you say?
Let's meet him together
and try to persuade him again.
We're practically begging him.
I'm sure he'll change his mind.
I suppose you're not on my side.
You're well aware of all the things
that my dad has done to me.
And what? We should persuade him?
Sang-hun, let's go.
Okay?
Sang-hun!
Jeong Sang-hun!
JEALOUSY
He got this in return for helping him.
Apparently, he just let him use his phone
and helped him escape
through the rear exit.
Then why did he run away?
He saw the news and got scared,
so he confessed everything
to his uncle, Dr. Park.
And Dr. Park told him
that he should lie low,
thinking he might take the rap
for the whole thing.
We thoroughly searched his motel room
but found nothing related to Jeong.
Jeez, this is nuts.
What is going on, then?
That punk isn't In Dong-gu's snitch.
So Jeong Sang-hun walked out on his own
and got abducted again or something?
I wonder why.
Why do you think he hid the fact
that he spoke to Jeong Sang-hun?
Sir.
TEAM LEADER OF NEW BUSINESS
Where did Mr. Jin go?
Well, I haven't been able to reach him
since the weekend.
He's never done this before.
Yes, the results are out.
We've found a tire that matches the marks.
YEONGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
YEONGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
What's the time, Mr. Wolf?
What's the time, Mr. Wolf?
I'm here!
We went through all our records
after receiving your call yesterday.
-I see.
-But
we found nothing on him, which is strange.
Pardon? What do you mean?
This is a list of all the children
we were looking after at the time.
CHILD PROFILE
Look. We found records on Jin Yeong-min,
but nothing on Yu Eun-seong.
Then do you remember anything about him
by any chance?
I wasn't here back then.
Then,
do you know if this person is still here?
Sister Choi?
She is still here,
but she is volunteering abroad
at the moment.
She'll be back in a few days.
Then please call me when she's back.
Search every nook and cranny.
We must find something.
Go that way.
KOREAN CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION
There's nothing.
No traces of blood.
There isn't a single strand of hair here.
Darn it. Did this bastard
clean the whole house and flee?
Can you find out if he used bleach?
Did you find anything?
-Tell them to rush it.
-Yes, sir.
So, you found nothing?
-Yes.
-That's right.
We searched the entire house.
There's nothing here.
Wait.
What's going on here?
We haven't been able to reach you
since yesterday. Where were you?
I was out of town for work.
None of your colleagues knew about it.
I don't tell them
everything on my schedule.
It was an emergency, so I couldn't
even find time to call the office.
And the connection was bad
because I was in a remote area.
I can give you their number if you'd like.
Call them and check.
I heard you and Mr. Jeong
have been friends for a long time.
Yes.
Then you must care about him a lot
as a friend.
I'm sure you want to find him
more than anyone else does.
-Right.
-Is that why
you went to see him?
RESULTS ON TIRE MARK
This is from my car.
I got a call from Sang-hun that day.
That was when I first found out
he had been confined there
and how he ended up there as well.
I see.
And?
He asked me for help.
He said he figured out a way
to get out and asked me
to come and get him.
Then what did you do? You just went there?
Fully knowing
that Chairman Jeong sent him there?
I was going to get him out first,
and then try to persuade Chairman Jeong.
I wanted to help Sang-hun
if he ended up there
against his will
because he's my friend.
But he didn't show up.
So, I just came back.
Nothing else happened.
That's a simple story.
Your friend, who asked you for help,
didn't show up, but you just came home?
Were you not worried?
I just assumed he got caught by
the hospital staff while trying to escape.
I was going to call the hospital
the next day
but heard he disappeared.
Then why haven't you told anyone
about this?
Chairman Jeong said nothing about you,
which means he had no idea either.
I didn't want any misunderstanding.
-"Misunderstanding"?
-The speculations
that you are making about me.
You're an interesting guy.
You were worried about him,
so you rushed there
without telling Chairman Jeong.
But you've been keeping your lips sealed
because you were afraid
that you'd be pegged as a suspect?
Knowing it'd cause confusion
in the investigation?
Which side of the story is true?
Yeong-min is a suspect?
Yes.
He was the last person Mr. Jeong spoke to
on the phone before he disappeared.
He was also the one
who went to the woods to pick him up.
Yeong-min
picked him up?
Then where did he take him?
He said Mr. Jeong didn't show up.
I wonder why he never told me.
So, what did Yeong-min say?
There must've been a reason.
What reason?
Will you be understanding
if he had a reason?
YEONGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
It's a photo of Sang-hun and Yeong-min.
They grew up together
at the same children's home.
Yeong-min
has probably spent more time
with Sang-hun
than even I or his father has.
And Yeong-min was the one
whom he trusted and confided in the most.
-Maybe that's why he called him first.
-Do you have a dog?
-Sorry?
-If I were you,
I'd even be suspicious of my dog.
Has anyone around you
been completely truthful with you?
Take a good look at yourself and find out
if you really believe him
or if you just want to believe his words.
SEO-HUI
The person you're trying to...
YEONG-MIN
Yeong-min, are you busy?
I need to talk to you about something.
Call me.
Mr. In.
Sir.
Go on.
Hey, Ho-gyu. Why don't you get it?
Are you still suspecting In Dong-gu?
The tire marks match Jin Yeong-min's car.
But we can't eliminate him
from the list of possible suspects.
He was at the hospital
when Sang-hun went missing.
And did you not hear what Yeong-min said?
He said Sang-hun didn't show up.
Are you religious?
What's with this unbending belief?
Look.
Captain, Jin Yeong-min is benefiting
from Chairman Jeong's help
and can earn a living,
all thanks to Jeong Sang-hun.
So, why on earth
would he dismember a friend like that?
I think In Dong-gu
is much more suspicious.
He couldn't stand Jeong Sang-hun
because of the new project.
And what else? He even took him
to the mental hospital.
What about the unregistered vehicle
he scrapped on that day?
You brat, how dare you talk back to me?
Hey, what's the story between
Jeong Sang-hun and Jin Yeong-min?
Kim Seo-hui was right.
They grew up together
in a children's home.
Apparently, Chairman Jeong
took in Jin Yeong-min as well
when he was adopting Jeong Sang-hun.
Only Jin Yeong-min was raised
by the housekeeper though.
Back in school, his nickname was
"Jeong Sang-hun's Butler."
I haven't seen you
at the head office in a while.
Why don't we have some tea?
Let's be honest.
That's what I was hoping.
I know you've been tailing me.
I was just following the chairman's order.
You went there that day
to get Mr. Jeong out, didn't you?
From what I know, I'm not the only one.
About Mr. Jeong...
Was it your doing?
I thought it was your doing.
You were supposed to be
the head of the new business team.
Until your most trusted friend
stole it from you, that is.
And after all, he's not even
Chairman Jeong's real son.
You had devoted your entire life
to this one person.
But one day, you looked back
and realized that you're just a manager.
You're a mere manager after all.
I'd say, that's enough of a motive.
They went to the same schools
from grade 1 to 12 and even college.
Yes. Their major is the same too.
They were even in the same clubs.
It seems like his job was to pave
all the ways for Jeong Sang-hun
so that he'd have it easy.
Gosh. If you had to do this
your whole life,
you'd think it's unfair.
If it was me, there will come a time
when I'll lose it.
I'd be like, "I want to live my own life."
I'd be lying if I told you
I had never been upset.
But the thing is,
the human mind
consists of more than
just one kind of emotion.
Although I guess
single-minded people like you
who try to achieve your one goal
at all costs
wouldn't really understand.
I'd love to stay and chat,
but I'm quite busy today.
Nothing related to Mr. Jeong was found
at any of the properties
that Mr. Jin owns.
The police didn't find anything either.
What about the GPS records?
It matches Mr. Jin's statement.
We've confirmed that he was meeting
with a solar panel specialist in Cheongju
when we couldn't reach him.
Shall I continue to keep an eye on him?
Yes, continue to keep an eye
on both Yeong-min and Mr. In.
Also,
have someone tail Yeong-min.
All right. Let's go through everything
one more time.
-Write it down.
-Yes, sir.
We don't know Jeong Sang-hun's whereabouts
after he escaped Yanggye Mental Hospital
on March 6.
So let's check
Jin Yeong-min and In Dong-gu's alibis
for that day and go from there.
Okay. In Dong-gu first.
He said he went to the hospital
to visit Jeong Sang-hun
but couldn't see him,
so he went straight home.
Jin Yeong-min also said that he went home
because Jeong Sang-hun didn't show up.
But all we have are their statements.
Right,
so one of them must be lying.
In Dong-gu said he didn't see
Jeong Sang-hun, but he scrapped the car.
Jin Yeong-min said Jeong Sang-hun
didn't show up when he called for help.
But the thing is, we don't have
any evidence to help us figure out
which one of them took Jeong Sang-hun.
Then why don't we
look into the dates
when the hand and foot were found?
Right, the hand.
The hand was found first
at Kim Seung-cheol's memorial ceremony.
But both of them were there
when that happened,
so their alibis check out.
And we tried to track down
the express courier the culprit hired,
but our attempt failed.
So, let's revisit their alibis for the day
when the foot was found.
The foot.
As we all know,
In Dong-gu visited the factory 1.5 hours
prior to the incident. Remember?
WE WANT OUR WORKPLACE BACK
Right, he did. As for Jin Yeong-min,
he had to attend a seminar that afternoon.
From 4 to 9 p.m.
But coincidentally,
they were replacing their security cameras
that day, so there's no footage.
However, all the employees said
that he didn't leave the office.
I have to say,
I don't think it's Jin Yeong-min.
-I think it's In Dong-gu.
-In Dong-gu isn't an idiot.
He knew he'd be suspected.
Why would he put the foot there?
Reverse psychology. Maybe he thought
it's too obvious for him to be suspected.
Hey, there were other people
who visited the factory that day.
The juice delivery guy
and the maintenance guy. That's all.
I see. Then I'll take a look
at the security footage.
Suit yourself.
He said a juice delivery guy
and a maintenance technician
all came in the morning.
-In the morning?
-Yes.
That's not what I read in the report...
Hold on. A maintenance technician.
He came in the evening. Around 7 p.m.
-Can you check?
-Sorry?
Here it is.
"The maintenance technician
came by between 7:10 and 7:20 p.m."
Didn't you check this?
What's wrong? Why are you all quiet?
Well...
The janitor says he comes every month.
So you didn't even check it?
April 3, Songju RMC?
-Yes.
-This is strange.
We go there on the last day
of every month.
Can you please double-check just in case?
Please wait a minute.
Right. We didn't send a technician
to the factory that day.
Is there a chance the record is missing?
That never happens.
Ho-gyu, that silly punk.
Are they the service technicians?
Yes, they are.
Ho-gyu.
Come on in.
REGIONAL INVESTIGATION UNIT
Hey.
Do you think this is a joke?
No.
Then how could you give it
a lick and a promise like that?
You're supposed to have a spot inspection
and investigate those who are involved.
-Tae-sik, he's new here, so...
-Get out.
Hey.
Do you just write down what people say?
How did it go?
They didn't send out
a technician that day.
Listen, you punk.
While you miss leads like this,
his family are going crazy,
waiting for him.
I'm sorry.
You stupid idiot.
You can't do your job right.
All you do is talk shit.
Hey!
You beat me to the punch.
You little punk.
What am I supposed to say
when you yell at him like that?
You're just covering for your man.
So what does that mean?
The criminal sneaked in as a technician
and put the foot there?
It means both In Dong-gu
and Jin Yeong-min are off.
This is driving me crazy.
We confirmed
that In Dong-gu left the building
before the technician came in.
But do you think Jin Yeong-min was
stuck in there for the whole five hours?
He could've at least gone
to the restroom or something.
Is it Ho-gyu who checked out the alibi?
Yes.
I should go and check it again.
There might be another mistake.
Gosh, I just got here. Darn it.
Cheers.
Did you get me
a tracking device or something?
Excuse me.
Please bring me
a bottle of soju and a glass.
-Okay.
-Go sit over there.
Hey, there are no other seats.
I'm sitting here.
-Thank you.
-Please enjoy.
Don't worry.
I'm here to side with you.
Let me pour you a glass.
Gosh, it's brimming over with love.
Cheers.
Do you know
who's making me go through all this?
It's Jo Tae-sik.
He forced me to come here
when I kept saying no.
That was my first spot inspection.
And he didn't even teach me anything.
-We didn't.
-No, you didn't.
And now that we have a problem,
he's saying it's all my fault.
You're right. I understand how you feel.
If it were that important,
he should've done it himself.
All he does is let his subordinates
do all the hard work.
He only cares about going back
to his hometown. What can I say?
You're totally right about that, Ho-gyu.
I wanted to do this right.
But my pride is going out the window.
Hey, you're doing just fine.
Don't be like that.
The other day,
you asked me
why I quit my job at JQ Group.
Right. Why did you quit?
There are so many people
who are just too good.
And those competent people struggle
so hard to go up the ladder.
I just couldn't compete with them.
You know what?
One day, on my way to work,
I felt so insignificant.
So I quit.
I thought I couldn't give up on my pride.
That's good.
You did the right thing.
But I'm being like this again here.
So is this all I'm capable of?
I can't help but feel that way.
It's just one mistake.
What's the big deal?
This is how you grow bigger
and take one step further.
Is it supposed to cheer me up?
Do you think I liked Jo Tae-sik
from the beginning?
I really hated that jerk.
Do you know what made me
open my mind to him?
What's wrong with Jin-gyeong?
What the hell is in her brain?
She has stones in her brain.
I think she has a thick head.
She's new from the country,
so she's totally out of touch.
Hey,
how fast can you guys run 100 meters?
Maybe about 15 seconds?
There's no way
you run 100 meters in 15 seconds.
If that's your record, mine is 13 seconds.
That's enough.
Kang Jin-gyeong runs
100 meters in 11 seconds.
-What?
-How would a girl do that?
I'm serious.
No one in the RIU runs 100 meters
in 11 seconds.
Did you guys not know
she's a track and field athlete?
Do you remember the mugger in Gangnam?
We all missed him,
but Jin-gyeong caught up with him.
That's when she got hit by a car.
Are you siding with her?
I'm just saying we all are
good at different things.
It's not that someone is bad.
And it's true that I'm siding with her.
What was that all about?
Does he like her?
He rarely opens his heart to others.
So people often get him wrong.
And it frustrates you a lot.
About him going back to his hometown.
It's not what it looks like.
His mom is very sick.
So he's trying to wrap things up
and return to his hometown. Okay?
You said you're here to take my side,
but you're eventually
siding with Detective Jo.
Hey.
Eat this and let it slide.
Just eat it.
Excuse me.
-How may I help you?
- Hello.
Are you here to meet Mr. Jin?
He's in Seoul now.
He'll be back in the afternoon.
I see.
I'm not here to meet him though.
Can I talk with you a moment
if you don't mind?
Okay.
I answered all the questions
Chairman Jeong asked,
but he still seems to have big doubts.
I think he will soon put
more tails on you.
If Mr. Jeong didn't come back
and take on the new business,
things wouldn't have
been delayed like this.
I had no idea
he'd oppose the project.
If we had a little more time,
I could've convinced Sang-hun.
You're right.
By the way, does Assemblywoman Kim know
that you're going
to the National Assembly today?
No.
I haven't seen you around for a while.
Stop acting like you're too busy.
I'd forget your face.
You should be speaking German
in your dreams by now.
What are you talking about?
Just give it a try.
If you're done traveling around Germany,
stop playing house with Seo-hui
and come back.
And take a job at the company.
Chairman Jeong misses you a lot.
He's trying to be understanding,
but it doesn't mean
he's comfortable with it.
I've made up my mind.
-About what?
-The new business.
Earlier today,
I told Dad that I'd do it.
That's good.
When you had the seminar here on April 3,
you said Jin Yeong-min
never left the office, right?
Yes. He was going to give
the presentation that day.
He stayed in the office all day except
when he went out to buy us some snacks.
-Snacks?
-Yes.
Macaroon, cake, and stuff like that.
-I already told the police.
-What time was it?
It was after dinner,
so maybe around seven?
Around seven?
Are you sure?
I don't know.
It's not that I saw it myself.
Mr. Im, you had
the snacks that night, right?
When we had the seminar.
Yes, I did. Why?
Are you sure you saw
Jin Yeong-min that night?
I don't think I did.
Right, I didn't see him.
Then what?
You said Jin Yeong-min bought
some snacks for you.
I just heard everyone say that.
Seung-yeon, didn't you say
that Mr. Jin got us some snacks?
Mr. Jin texted me that day.
So I thought he left some snacks.
Did anyone of you see Jin Yeong-min
when he brought the snacks?
So it means no one saw
Jin Yeong-min that night.
Mr. Jin Yeong-min, the head
of the new renewable energy team
of JQ Group shall take the witness stand.
KIM SEO-HUI
Let me ask the witness a question.
Were you the first one to propose
this new business at your company?
WITNESS STAND
-Yes.
-And before Mr. Jeong was appointed,
you were to assume the position.
And apparently,
you're currently the interim CEO.
Is that correct?
Yes, it is.
When it comes to a wind power plant,
the geographical conditions are crucial.
You know that, right?
-Yes.
-But
instead of Myeongseon or Jinpyeong
with better conditions,
why do you think Songju was selected?
-Excuse me, Assemblyman Yoon. What--
-Assemblywoman Baek.
CHAIRPERSON IM YOON-BIN
It was decided
after an in-depth discussion
of the Energy Resources Committee.
JQ Group took over
a large area of land in Songju.
Isn't it that they chose Songju
to make a profit from the business?
I believe the bill was suggested
to give JQ Group a special treatment.
-That's ridiculous.
-Assemblyman Yoon, why would you...
-Come on.
-What do you mean?
-That's nonsense.
-Please be silent.
It is
a special treatment.
We are selected as a company to contribute
to the future value of Korea.
-It is a special treatment.
-That's not what I mean.
The cities you mentioned
might have better conditions than Songju.
But let me tell you as an expert.
That's not true.
What?
In the energy industry,
distribution costs
more money than production.
It's all about accessibility.
The fastest route inland
and to overseas countries.
Keeping all that in mind,
do you think Songju
is the second-best option?
No. I believe it's the best choice.
JQ Group is banking on this project
tolerating the deficit
of tens of billions of won
and taking possible risks.
With only one goal
for the national competitiveness
of Korea.
Excuse me, Mr. Jin Yeong-min.
You can be charged with perjury
if you give false testimony here.
-What are you talking about?
-That's absurd.
Please be silent.
Assemblyman Yoon,
you can't press him for an answer.
Mr. Im, it's not like that.
Then why
did Mr. Jeong Sang-hun
consider relocating the site
for the new business?
Is that true?
I asked if it's true.
I've never heard of it.
I believe you've been given enough time.
We have other items to discuss.
About the clause 12 on the agenda,
on the special bill proposal
for the new renewable energy complex,
we will take a vote.
Mr. Im, we can't just
push it forward like this.
Let us proceed with the vote.
-Raise hands if you oppose the bill.
-Chairman Im.
Raise hands if you approve.
The bill has been approved.
Hello, sir.
It's nice to see you.
Thank you, sir.
-Have you been doing well?
-Yes.
YOENGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
-Do you think so?
-It could be.
But really, it is...
-What?
-What's going on?
Due to the power problem in the building,
the elevator is currently out of service.
We are trying hard to fix it
as soon as possible.
Your patience will be appreciated.
JIN YEONG-MIN
JQ SONGJU BRANCH
Jin Yeong-min doesn't have any meetings.
Where's he going?
Listen, you punk.
While you miss leads like this,
his family are going crazy,
waiting for him.
You can't do your job right.
All you do is talk shit.
He'll throw a fit
if I don't check this out.
Fine. Let me check this out.
WEEKLY SCHEDULE FOR IMPORTANT MEETINGS
He doesn't have any meetings
outside his office.
There's no reason for him
to leave the building today.
JQ SONGJU BRANCH
And that's the opposite direction
to his house.
Someone visited the factory,
pretending to be an employee there
around 7:10 p.m. to 7:20 p.m.
As it so happens,
Jin Yeong-min doesn't have
an alibi around that time.
-Detective Jo.
-What is it?
You told me to report to you
if something seemed off about
Jin Yeong-min's movements.
Hey, he's never gone off his schedule
-after we installed a tracker, right?
-No.
Shouldn't he be working
at the company now?
Exactly.
I have no idea where this guy is headed.
SONGJU WASTE FACILITY
Tae-sik, turn right from here.
-From here?
-Yes.
What?
Why did he come to a place like this?
This is leading to a mountain.
Did you get any other signals?
What do you expect from junk like this?
We barely got his location with this.
Even so, try to see
if there's anything else.
-What the heck?
-What is it?
-Damn it.
-What is it?
The screen went off.
Damn it. Didn't you pack batteries?
Damn it.
Hey, come on.
Hitting that won't solve our problem.
Come on.
Damn it. It's the same road again.
Tae-sik, I'm sorry.
Can you drop me off somewhere here?
I'll go get the batteries
from the station.
Sure. Why not? I bet Jin Yeong-min
will stay here until you come back.
What is this place?
Why did they stop building
these apartments?
Why are we going in there?
He must have come to this place.
Hey, what's the smoke over there?
-Hey, come and put out the fire.
-Gosh.
Damn it.
"SJ".
Isn't this uniform from the facility
maintenance branch we visited yesterday?
Mr. In.
Was that you?
Did you put that box in my office?
I don't know what you're talking about.
You don't know?
You're the only person
who would do something like that to me.
Did you just smile?
Do you think this is funny?
I was wondering
when you would quit pretending
to be a nice guy.
I am dying to know
what was in the box
to have made you this angry.
You don't think I can't see
right through your little game?
You got the wrong person.
You can't eliminate me
like you got rid of Sang-hun.
I would like to
tell you the exact same thing.
YEONGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
EUN-SEONG AND YEONG-MIN
STAY HEALTHY,
AND ALWAYS BE THERE FOR EACH OTHER
I got rid of the record
because the chairman asked me to.
He didn't want Eun-seong...
No. He didn't want there to be anything
that could harm Sang-hun later.
I thought about those kids
for a very long time.
Anyway,
I sent them to him because I thought
they could have a happy life.
How could this happen to him?
Well, do you think
you can tell me about them
when they were here?
Yeong-min was abandoned at birth,
so he had grown up here since birth.
And Eun-seong was sent here
at the age of five
when his parents died in an accident.
From the first time they met,
Yeong-min liked Eun-seong very much.
As he was a few months older,
he acted like Eun-seong's big brother
and stopped other kids from bothering him.
So naturally, Eun-seong
was fond of Yeong-min, too.
When sponsors or parents
who were interested in adoption came,
they always thought
that those two were brothers.
It was so nice to see two boys
taking such good care of each other.
Well, that changed a bit after the visit
from Chairman Jeong.
Eun-seong.
Eun-seong.
CHARITY EVENT
Here. It's the snack you like.
I brought a lot.
Did you have some?
I ate a lot.
They gave me tons.
I guess it's because it's Chuseok.
I'm so stuffed.
I know you didn't eat it.
-Here.
-I'm full.
Take it.
Didn't I tell you?
If you get sick here,
no one is here to take care of you.
Stop getting sick. Okay?
Take it.
No.
Mister!
Mister, I haven't seen you for ages!
-The boy Chairman Jeong liked at first was
-Have you been well?
-Yeong-min.
-I played soccer at school.
He spent a lot of time with Yeong-min
and talked a lot, as well.
And I was the best
at blowing the balloons, too.
Hello, sir.
-Thank you so much for your support.
-Don't mention it.
Eun-seong, come here.
Later, I found out
that he only donated generously
to ask about Eun-seong.
Eun-seong resembles his late son so much.
JQ CHARITY EVENT OF HAPPINESS
When it was settled
that he would adopt Eun-seong,
it was very hard on Yeong-min.

YU EUN-SEONG
Ma'am.
Yeong-min.
Why did he choose
Eun-seong?
Why
didn't he pick me?
Yeong-min. Oh, Yeong-min.
Mr. Jin.
Please come with us.
You're under arrest for abduction
and battery of Jeong Sang-hun.
You have the right to consult an attorney,
the chance to exonerate yourself,
and file for habeas corpus
in challenging the arrest.
Are you aware of your rights?
Come with us.
YEONGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
He was the last person Mr. Jeong spoke to
on the phone before he disappeared.
He was also the one
who went to the woods to pick him up.
Yeong-min, I feel like I'm going crazy.
Will you tell me
once you get a call from Sang-hun?
Please.
Okay.
He already knew that Sang-hun was
at the hospital when I called him.
But he kept pretending to be clueless.
And he was well-acquainted
with Mr. Hong, too.
Were you the first one to propose
this new business
at your company?
-Yes.
-And before Mr. Jeong was appointed,
-He came up with the business plan,
-you were to assume the position.
-but he lost the seat to Sang-hun.
-You're currently the interim CEO.
-Is that correct?
-Yes, it is.
When my father and Sang-hun went
against the new business,
-he must have hated that the most.
-...the national competitiveness of Korea.
PROPOSE THE BILL FOR THE NEW BUSINESS
Seo-hui, I must do it.
Whatever that may be,
if I can save Sang-hun, I must do it.
So he must have wanted me
to propose the bill for the new business.
Did Yeong-min really do it?
DETECTIVE JO TAE-SIK
Yes, Detective Jo.
Okay.
I'll head over there now.
Detective Jo.
Smoking isn't allowed here.
Did you set up everything?
Yes. I set it up perfectly
and didn't make any mistakes this time.
And sir.
I'm sorry about the report.
Good job today.
Where is he?
Are you a man?
Yes.
What is your name?
It's Jin Yeong-min.
Let's move on.
Where is
Jeong Sang-hun?
I don't know.
On April 3, his foot was found
at the RMC factory.
You attended a seminar at work, correct?
-Yes.
-Where were you and what were you doing
that day at 7 p.m.?
I bought some snacks for the employees.
But no one actually saw you
around that time.
When I went to the office,
no one was inside.
You didn't deliberately go
when it was empty?
The employees saw you again at 7:30 p.m.
It was when the seminar had resumed.
In other words,
no one had seen you
during those 30 minutes.
And half an hour
is more than enough to make a round trip
from your company to the RMC factory.
Let me ask you again.
Mr. Jin,
did you leave
Jeong Sang-hun's foot at the factory?
Never.
He must have gotten ready for this.
I don't see any changes in the graph.
What about this, then?
What is this?
Why did you have this uniform?
It's not mine.
Then, how can you explain your DNAs
found on this uniform?
When I went to my office,
a box was on my desk.
And the uniform was inside the box.
The secretary didn't know
who had put it in my office.
-I was only trying to see what--
-That's a lie.
That's enough.
I didn't see anyone going
into your office in the security footages
except for you, Mr. Jin.
There was a blackout today
at our building.
-I think that's when--
-Why did you burn it then?
Why did you have to burn it?
The culprit dressed up as an employee
from the facility maintenance branch.
And no one knew except for the police
and the culprit.
You knew that this would be
considered evidence,
so you were trying to get rid of it.
Something felt off because it came
in the same box used for Sang-hun's limbs.
Whatever was inside the box,
I thought it had to be a trap.
Can't you see?
I'm being set up right now.
Someone set this up,
so I'll be framed for this.
The real culprit who harmed Sang-hun.
Wait.
QUICK QUICK
-Give me that.
-Try it one more time.
-Are you done?
-Yes. Almost.
I need to look this over.
Where's the entertainment team?
The entertainment team?
Over there.
Come over here.
Hey, put this up for me.
-Check it quickly.
-Okay.
Excuse me.
Sir, are you waiting for a parcel?
No.
BAREUN NEWS
Please ask him this question.
Ask him
if he had ever been jealous
of Sang-hun in his life.
Have you never been jealous
of Jeong Sang-hun? Not even once?
No, never. Not even once.
Even when Sang-hun became
the CEO of the new business
and you didn't?
Even when Jeong Sang-hun stole
the CEO seat from you?
No.
Even when
Father chose Sang-hun as his son,
instead of you?
Then, how about
when Chairman Jeong Yeong-mun chose
Yu Eun-seong as his son?
How did you feel?

CRIME DIVISION
Hey, I just got a call.
-What's going on?
-They just got an eye.
-What?
-Speak slowly.
A newspaper agency got an eye.
What?
I just received a call.
A newspaper agency received his eye.
Jeong Sang-hun's eye.
What?
His hand, foot, and eye this time.
Do you really think
the culprit left a message?
The woman who jumped off
the rooftop of her apartment.
Perhaps, she might not have
committed suicide.
It cannot be a coincidence, sir.
I am certain that someone
is trying to dig up that incident.
I keep thinking
that it's connected to our case.
I'm scared, too. The sides of Sang-hun
I don't know about...
Do you think
Jeong Sang-hun is still alive?
Which side is the real you?
ALL CHARACTERS, PLACES,

Sang-hun, look at me.
Are you all right?
Yeong-min.
You came. Thank you.
Thanks, Yeong-min.
How's my father-in-law?
Is he okay?
He passed away.
Three days ago, in a car crash.
I'm coming from his funeral.
Father...
died in a car accident?
Does that make sense to you?
What the hell did they do to him?
Sang-hun, who did what?
Tell me.
What were you doing?
-What?
-What the heck were you doing
until he ended up like that?
I thought you'd help us.
I want to help.
That's why I came here.
Then...
Let's get out of here.
We'll go and see the chairman.
What did you say?
Let's meet him together
and try to persuade him again.
We're practically begging him.
I'm sure he'll change his mind.
I suppose you're not on my side.
You're well aware of all the things
that my dad has done to me.
And what? We should persuade him?
Sang-hun, let's go.
Okay?
Sang-hun!
Jeong Sang-hun!
JEALOUSY
He got this in return for helping him.
Apparently, he just let him use his phone
and helped him escape
through the rear exit.
Then why did he run away?
He saw the news and got scared,
so he confessed everything
to his uncle, Dr. Park.
And Dr. Park told him
that he should lie low,
thinking he might take the rap
for the whole thing.
We thoroughly searched his motel room
but found nothing related to Jeong.
Jeez, this is nuts.
What is going on, then?
That punk isn't In Dong-gu's snitch.
So Jeong Sang-hun walked out on his own
and got abducted again or something?
I wonder why.
Why do you think he hid the fact
that he spoke to Jeong Sang-hun?
Sir.
TEAM LEADER OF NEW BUSINESS

Well, I haven't been able to reach him

We went through all our records

-I see.
-But
we found nothing on him, which is strange.
Pardon? What do you mean?
This is a list of all the children
we were looking after at the time.
CHILD PROFILE
Look. We found records on Jin Yeong-min,
but nothing on Yu Eun-seong.
Then do you remember anything about him

I wasn't here back then.
Then,

Sister Choi?
She is still here,
but she is volunteering abroad
at the moment.
She'll be back in a few days.
Then please call me when she's back.

We must find something.
Go that way.
KOREAN CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION
There's nothing.
No traces of blood.
There isn't a single strand of hair here.
Darn it. Did this bastard
clean the whole house and flee?
Can you find out if he used bleach?
Did you find anything?
-Tell them to rush it.
-Yes, sir.
So, you found nothing?
-Yes.
-That's right.
We searched the entire house.
There's nothing here.
Wait.
What's going on here?
We haven't been able to reach you
since yesterday. Where were you?
I was out of town for work.
None of your colleagues knew about it.
I don't tell them
everything on my schedule.
It was an emergency, so I couldn't
even find time to call the office.
And the connection was bad
because I was in a remote area.
I can give you their number if you'd like.
Call them and check.
I heard you and Mr. Jeong
have been friends for a long time.
Yes.
Then you must care about him a lot
as a friend.
I'm sure you want to find him
more than anyone else does.
-Right.
-Is that why
you went to see him?
RESULTS ON TIRE MARK
This is from my car.
I got a call from Sang-hun that day.
That was when I first found out
he had been confined there
and how he ended up there as well.
I see.
And?
He asked me for help.
He said he figured out a way
to get out and asked me
to come and get him.
Then what did you do? You just went there?
Fully knowing
that Chairman Jeong sent him there?
I was going to get him out first,
and then try to persuade Chairman Jeong.
I wanted to help Sang-hun
if he ended up there
against his will
because he's my friend.
But he didn't show up.
So, I just came back.
Nothing else happened.
That's a simple story.
Your friend, who asked you for help,
didn't show up, but you just came home?
Were you not worried?
I just assumed he got caught by
the hospital staff while trying to escape.
I was going to call the hospital
the next day
but heard he disappeared.
Then why haven't you told anyone
about this?
Chairman Jeong said nothing about you,
which means he had no idea either.
I didn't want any misunderstanding.
-"Misunderstanding"?
-The speculations
that you are making about me.
You're an interesting guy.
You were worried about him,
so you rushed there
without telling Chairman Jeong.
But you've been keeping your lips sealed
because you were afraid
that you'd be pegged as a suspect?
Knowing it'd cause confusion
in the investigation?
Which side of the story is true?
Yeong-min is a suspect?
Yes.
He was the last person Mr. Jeong spoke to
on the phone before he disappeared.
He was also the one
who went to the woods to pick him up.
Yeong-min
picked him up?
Then where did he take him?
He said Mr. Jeong didn't show up.
I wonder why he never told me.
So, what did Yeong-min say?
There must've been a reason.
What reason?
Will you be understanding
if he had a reason?
YEONGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
It's a photo of Sang-hun and Yeong-min.
They grew up together
at the same children's home.
Yeong-min
has probably spent more time
with Sang-hun
than even I or his father has.
And Yeong-min was the one
whom he trusted and confided in the most.
-Maybe that's why he called him first.
-Do you have a dog?
-Sorry?
-If I were you,
I'd even be suspicious of my dog.
Has anyone around you
been completely truthful with you?
Take a good look at yourself and find out
if you really believe him
or if you just want to believe his words.
SEO-HUI
The person you're trying to...
YEONG-MIN
Yeong-min, are you busy?
I need to talk to you about something.
Call me.
Mr. In.
Sir.
Go on.
Hey, Ho-gyu. Why don't you get it?
Are you still suspecting In Dong-gu?
The tire marks match Jin Yeong-min's car.
But we can't eliminate him
from the list of possible suspects.
He was at the hospital
when Sang-hun went missing.
And did you not hear what Yeong-min said?
He said Sang-hun didn't show up.
Are you religious?
What's with this unbending belief?
Look.
Captain, Jin Yeong-min is benefiting
from Chairman Jeong's help
and can earn a living,
all thanks to Jeong Sang-hun.
So, why on earth
would he dismember a friend like that?
I think In Dong-gu
is much more suspicious.
He couldn't stand Jeong Sang-hun
because of the new project.
And what else? He even took him
to the mental hospital.
What about the unregistered vehicle
he scrapped on that day?
You brat, how dare you talk back to me?
Hey, what's the story between
Jeong Sang-hun and Jin Yeong-min?
Kim Seo-hui was right.
They grew up together
in a children's home.
Apparently, Chairman Jeong
took in Jin Yeong-min as well
when he was adopting Jeong Sang-hun.
Only Jin Yeong-min was raised
by the housekeeper though.
Back in school, his nickname was
"Jeong Sang-hun's Butler."
I haven't seen you
at the head office in a while.
Why don't we have some tea?
Let's be honest.
That's what I was hoping.
I know you've been tailing me.
I was just following the chairman's order.
You went there that day
to get Mr. Jeong out, didn't you?
From what I know, I'm not the only one.
About Mr. Jeong...
Was it your doing?
I thought it was your doing.
You were supposed to be
the head of the new business team.
Until your most trusted friend
stole it from you, that is.
And after all, he's not even
Chairman Jeong's real son.
You had devoted your entire life
to this one person.
But one day, you looked back
and realized that you're just a manager.
You're a mere manager after all.
I'd say, that's enough of a motive.
They went to the same schools
from grade 1 to 12 and even college.
Yes. Their major is the same too.
They were even in the same clubs.
It seems like his job was to pave
all the ways for Jeong Sang-hun
so that he'd have it easy.
Gosh. If you had to do this
your whole life,
you'd think it's unfair.
If it was me, there will come a time
when I'll lose it.
I'd be like, "I want to live my own life."
I'd be lying if I told you
I had never been upset.
But the thing is,
the human mind
consists of more than
just one kind of emotion.
Although I guess
single-minded people like you
who try to achieve your one goal
at all costs
wouldn't really understand.
I'd love to stay and chat,
but I'm quite busy today.
Nothing related to Mr. Jeong was found
at any of the properties
that Mr. Jin owns.
The police didn't find anything either.
What about the GPS records?
It matches Mr. Jin's statement.
We've confirmed that he was meeting
with a solar panel specialist in Cheongju
when we couldn't reach him.
Shall I continue to keep an eye on him?
Yes, continue to keep an eye
on both Yeong-min and Mr. In.
Also,
have someone tail Yeong-min.
All right. Let's go through everything
one more time.
-Write it down.
-Yes, sir.
We don't know Jeong Sang-hun's whereabouts
after he escaped Yanggye Mental Hospital
on March 6.
So let's check
Jin Yeong-min and In Dong-gu's alibis
for that day and go from there.
Okay. In Dong-gu first.
He said he went to the hospital
to visit Jeong Sang-hun
but couldn't see him,
so he went straight home.
Jin Yeong-min also said that he went home
because Jeong Sang-hun didn't show up.
But all we have are their statements.
Right,
so one of them must be lying.
In Dong-gu said he didn't see
Jeong Sang-hun, but he scrapped the car.
Jin Yeong-min said Jeong Sang-hun
didn't show up when he called for help.
But the thing is, we don't have
any evidence to help us figure out
which one of them took Jeong Sang-hun.
Then why don't we
look into the dates
when the hand and foot were found?
Right, the hand.
The hand was found first
at Kim Seung-cheol's memorial ceremony.
But both of them were there
when that happened,
so their alibis check out.
And we tried to track down
the express courier the culprit hired,
but our attempt failed.
So, let's revisit their alibis for the day
when the foot was found.
The foot.
As we all know,
In Dong-gu visited the factory 1.5 hours
prior to the incident. Remember?
WE WANT OUR WORKPLACE BACK
Right, he did. As for Jin Yeong-min,
he had to attend a seminar that afternoon.
From 4 to 9 p.m.
But coincidentally,
they were replacing their security cameras
that day, so there's no footage.
However, all the employees said
that he didn't leave the office.
I have to say,
I don't think it's Jin Yeong-min.
-I think it's In Dong-gu.
-In Dong-gu isn't an idiot.
He knew he'd be suspected.
Why would he put the foot there?
Reverse psychology. Maybe he thought
it's too obvious for him to be suspected.
Hey, there were other people
who visited the factory that day.
The juice delivery guy
and the maintenance guy. That's all.
I see. Then I'll take a look
at the security footage.
Suit yourself.
He said a juice delivery guy
and a maintenance technician
all came in the morning.
-In the morning?
-Yes.
That's not what I read in the report...
Hold on. A maintenance technician.
He came in the evening. Around 7 p.m.
-Can you check?
-Sorry?
Here it is.
"The maintenance technician
came by between 7:10 and 7:20 p.m."
Didn't you check this?
What's wrong? Why are you all quiet?
Well...
The janitor says he comes every month.
So you didn't even check it?
April 3, Songju RMC?
-Yes.
-This is strange.
We go there on the last day
of every month.
Can you please double-check just in case?
Please wait a minute.
Right. We didn't send a technician
to the factory that day.
Is there a chance the record is missing?
That never happens.
Ho-gyu, that silly punk.
Are they the service technicians?
Yes, they are.
Ho-gyu.
Come on in.
REGIONAL INVESTIGATION UNIT
Hey.
Do you think this is a joke?
No.
Then how could you give it
a lick and a promise like that?
You're supposed to have a spot inspection
and investigate those who are involved.
-Tae-sik, he's new here, so...
-Get out.
Hey.
Do you just write down what people say?
How did it go?
They didn't send out
a technician that day.
Listen, you punk.
While you miss leads like this,
his family are going crazy,
waiting for him.
I'm sorry.
You stupid idiot.
You can't do your job right.
All you do is talk shit.
Hey!
You beat me to the punch.
You little punk.
What am I supposed to say
when you yell at him like that?
You're just covering for your man.
So what does that mean?
The criminal sneaked in as a technician
and put the foot there?
It means both In Dong-gu
and Jin Yeong-min are off.
This is driving me crazy.
We confirmed
that In Dong-gu left the building
before the technician came in.
But do you think Jin Yeong-min was
stuck in there for the whole five hours?
He could've at least gone
to the restroom or something.
Is it Ho-gyu who checked out the alibi?
Yes.
I should go and check it again.
There might be another mistake.
Gosh, I just got here. Darn it.
Cheers.
Did you get me
a tracking device or something?
Excuse me.
Please bring me
a bottle of soju and a glass.
-Okay.
-Go sit over there.
Hey, there are no other seats.
I'm sitting here.
-Thank you.
-Please enjoy.
Don't worry.
I'm here to side with you.
Let me pour you a glass.
Gosh, it's brimming over with love.
Cheers.
Do you know
who's making me go through all this?
It's Jo Tae-sik.
He forced me to come here
when I kept saying no.
That was my first spot inspection.
And he didn't even teach me anything.
-We didn't.
-No, you didn't.
And now that we have a problem,
he's saying it's all my fault.
You're right. I understand how you feel.
If it were that important,
he should've done it himself.
All he does is let his subordinates
do all the hard work.
He only cares about going back
to his hometown. What can I say?
You're totally right about that, Ho-gyu.
I wanted to do this right.
But my pride is going out the window.
Hey, you're doing just fine.
Don't be like that.
The other day,
you asked me
why I quit my job at JQ Group.
Right. Why did you quit?
There are so many people
who are just too good.
And those competent people struggle
so hard to go up the ladder.
I just couldn't compete with them.
You know what?
One day, on my way to work,
I felt so insignificant.
So I quit.
I thought I couldn't give up on my pride.
That's good.
You did the right thing.
But I'm being like this again here.
So is this all I'm capable of?
I can't help but feel that way.
It's just one mistake.
What's the big deal?
This is how you grow bigger
and take one step further.
Is it supposed to cheer me up?
Do you think I liked Jo Tae-sik
from the beginning?
I really hated that jerk.
Do you know what made me
open my mind to him?
What's wrong with Jin-gyeong?
What the hell is in her brain?
She has stones in her brain.
I think she has a thick head.
She's new from the country,
so she's totally out of touch.
Hey,
how fast can you guys run 100 meters?
Maybe about 15 seconds?
There's no way
you run 100 meters in 15 seconds.
If that's your record, mine is 13 seconds.
That's enough.
Kang Jin-gyeong runs
100 meters in 11 seconds.
-What?
-How would a girl do that?
I'm serious.
No one in the RIU runs 100 meters
in 11 seconds.
Did you guys not know
she's a track and field athlete?
Do you remember the mugger in Gangnam?
We all missed him,
but Jin-gyeong caught up with him.
That's when she got hit by a car.
Are you siding with her?
I'm just saying we all are
good at different things.
It's not that someone is bad.
And it's true that I'm siding with her.
What was that all about?
Does he like her?
He rarely opens his heart to others.
So people often get him wrong.
And it frustrates you a lot.
About him going back to his hometown.
It's not what it looks like.
His mom is very sick.
So he's trying to wrap things up
and return to his hometown. Okay?
You said you're here to take my side,
but you're eventually
siding with Detective Jo.
Hey.
Eat this and let it slide.
Just eat it.
Excuse me.
-How may I help you?
- Hello.
Are you here to meet Mr. Jin?
He's in Seoul now.
He'll be back in the afternoon.
I see.
I'm not here to meet him though.
Can I talk with you a moment
if you don't mind?
Okay.
I answered all the questions
Chairman Jeong asked,
but he still seems to have big doubts.
I think he will soon put
more tails on you.
If Mr. Jeong didn't come back
and take on the new business,
things wouldn't have
been delayed like this.
I had no idea
he'd oppose the project.
If we had a little more time,
I could've convinced Sang-hun.
You're right.
By the way, does Assemblywoman Kim know
that you're going
to the National Assembly today?
No.
I haven't seen you around for a while.
Stop acting like you're too busy.
I'd forget your face.
You should be speaking German
in your dreams by now.
What are you talking about?
Just give it a try.
If you're done traveling around Germany,
stop playing house with Seo-hui
and come back.
And take a job at the company.
Chairman Jeong misses you a lot.
He's trying to be understanding,
but it doesn't mean
he's comfortable with it.
I've made up my mind.
-About what?
-The new business.
Earlier today,
I told Dad that I'd do it.
That's good.
When you had the seminar here on April 3,
you said Jin Yeong-min
never left the office, right?
Yes. He was going to give
the presentation that day.
He stayed in the office all day except
when he went out to buy us some snacks.
-Snacks?
-Yes.
Macaroon, cake, and stuff like that.
-I already told the police.
-What time was it?
It was after dinner,
so maybe around seven?
Around seven?
Are you sure?
I don't know.
It's not that I saw it myself.
Mr. Im, you had
the snacks that night, right?
When we had the seminar.
Yes, I did. Why?
Are you sure you saw
Jin Yeong-min that night?
I don't think I did.
Right, I didn't see him.
Then what?
You said Jin Yeong-min bought
some snacks for you.
I just heard everyone say that.
Seung-yeon, didn't you say
that Mr. Jin got us some snacks?
Mr. Jin texted me that day.
So I thought he left some snacks.
Did anyone of you see Jin Yeong-min
when he brought the snacks?
So it means no one saw
Jin Yeong-min that night.
Mr. Jin Yeong-min, the head
of the new renewable energy team
of JQ Group shall take the witness stand.
KIM SEO-HUI
Let me ask the witness a question.
Were you the first one to propose
this new business at your company?
WITNESS STAND
-Yes.
-And before Mr. Jeong was appointed,
you were to assume the position.
And apparently,
you're currently the interim CEO.
Is that correct?
Yes, it is.
When it comes to a wind power plant,
the geographical conditions are crucial.
You know that, right?
-Yes.
-But
instead of Myeongseon or Jinpyeong
with better conditions,
why do you think Songju was selected?
-Excuse me, Assemblyman Yoon. What--
-Assemblywoman Baek.
CHAIRPERSON IM YOON-BIN
It was decided
after an in-depth discussion
of the Energy Resources Committee.
JQ Group took over
a large area of land in Songju.
Isn't it that they chose Songju
to make a profit from the business?
I believe the bill was suggested
to give JQ Group a special treatment.
-That's ridiculous.
-Assemblyman Yoon, why would you...
-Come on.
-What do you mean?
-That's nonsense.
-Please be silent.
It is
a special treatment.
We are selected as a company to contribute
to the future value of Korea.
-It is a special treatment.
-That's not what I mean.
The cities you mentioned
might have better conditions than Songju.
But let me tell you as an expert.
That's not true.
What?
In the energy industry,
distribution costs
more money than production.
It's all about accessibility.
The fastest route inland
and to overseas countries.
Keeping all that in mind,
do you think Songju
is the second-best option?
No. I believe it's the best choice.
JQ Group is banking on this project
tolerating the deficit
of tens of billions of won
and taking possible risks.
With only one goal
for the national competitiveness
of Korea.
Excuse me, Mr. Jin Yeong-min.
You can be charged with perjury
if you give false testimony here.
-What are you talking about?
-That's absurd.
Please be silent.
Assemblyman Yoon,
you can't press him for an answer.
Mr. Im, it's not like that.
Then why
did Mr. Jeong Sang-hun
consider relocating the site
for the new business?
Is that true?
I asked if it's true.
I've never heard of it.
I believe you've been given enough time.
We have other items to discuss.
About the clause 12 on the agenda,
on the special bill proposal
for the new renewable energy complex,
we will take a vote.
Mr. Im, we can't just
push it forward like this.
Let us proceed with the vote.
-Raise hands if you oppose the bill.
-Chairman Im.
Raise hands if you approve.
The bill has been approved.
Hello, sir.
It's nice to see you.
Thank you, sir.
-Have you been doing well?
-Yes.
YOENGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
-Do you think so?
-It could be.
But really, it is...
-What?
-What's going on?
Due to the power problem in the building,
the elevator is currently out of service.
We are trying hard to fix it
as soon as possible.
Your patience will be appreciated.
JIN YEONG-MIN
JQ SONGJU BRANCH
Jin Yeong-min doesn't have any meetings.
Where's he going?
Listen, you punk.
While you miss leads like this,
his family are going crazy,
waiting for him.
You can't do your job right.
All you do is talk shit.
He'll throw a fit
if I don't check this out.
Fine. Let me check this out.
WEEKLY SCHEDULE FOR IMPORTANT MEETINGS
He doesn't have any meetings
outside his office.
There's no reason for him
to leave the building today.
JQ SONGJU BRANCH
And that's the opposite direction
to his house.
Someone visited the factory,
pretending to be an employee there
around 7:10 p.m. to 7:20 p.m.
As it so happens,
Jin Yeong-min doesn't have
an alibi around that time.
-Detective Jo.
-What is it?
You told me to report to you
if something seemed off about
Jin Yeong-min's movements.
Hey, he's never gone off his schedule
-after we installed a tracker, right?
-No.
Shouldn't he be working
at the company now?
Exactly.
I have no idea where this guy is headed.
SONGJU WASTE FACILITY
Tae-sik, turn right from here.
-From here?
-Yes.
What?
Why did he come to a place like this?
This is leading to a mountain.
Did you get any other signals?
What do you expect from junk like this?
We barely got his location with this.
Even so, try to see
if there's anything else.
-What the heck?
-What is it?
-Damn it.
-What is it?
The screen went off.
Damn it. Didn't you pack batteries?
Damn it.
Hey, come on.
Hitting that won't solve our problem.
Come on.
Damn it. It's the same road again.
Tae-sik, I'm sorry.
Can you drop me off somewhere here?
I'll go get the batteries
from the station.
Sure. Why not? I bet Jin Yeong-min
will stay here until you come back.
What is this place?
Why did they stop building
these apartments?
Why are we going in there?
He must have come to this place.
Hey, what's the smoke over there?
-Hey, come and put out the fire.
-Gosh.
Damn it.
"SJ".
Isn't this uniform from the facility
maintenance branch we visited yesterday?
Mr. In.
Was that you?
Did you put that box in my office?
I don't know what you're talking about.
You don't know?
You're the only person
who would do something like that to me.
Did you just smile?
Do you think this is funny?
I was wondering
when you would quit pretending
to be a nice guy.
I am dying to know
what was in the box
to have made you this angry.
You don't think I can't see
right through your little game?
You got the wrong person.
You can't eliminate me
like you got rid of Sang-hun.
I would like to
tell you the exact same thing.
YEONGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
EUN-SEONG AND YEONG-MIN
STAY HEALTHY,
AND ALWAYS BE THERE FOR EACH OTHER
I got rid of the record
because the chairman asked me to.
He didn't want Eun-seong...
No. He didn't want there to be anything
that could harm Sang-hun later.
I thought about those kids
for a very long time.
Anyway,
I sent them to him because I thought
they could have a happy life.
How could this happen to him?
Well, do you think
you can tell me about them
when they were here?
Yeong-min was abandoned at birth,
so he had grown up here since birth.
And Eun-seong was sent here
at the age of five
when his parents died in an accident.
From the first time they met,
Yeong-min liked Eun-seong very much.
As he was a few months older,
he acted like Eun-seong's big brother
and stopped other kids from bothering him.
So naturally, Eun-seong
was fond of Yeong-min, too.
When sponsors or parents
who were interested in adoption came,
they always thought
that those two were brothers.
It was so nice to see two boys
taking such good care of each other.
Well, that changed a bit after the visit
from Chairman Jeong.
Eun-seong.
Eun-seong.
CHARITY EVENT
Here. It's the snack you like.
I brought a lot.
Did you have some?
I ate a lot.
They gave me tons.
I guess it's because it's Chuseok.
I'm so stuffed.
I know you didn't eat it.
-Here.
-I'm full.
Take it.
Didn't I tell you?
If you get sick here,
no one is here to take care of you.
Stop getting sick. Okay?
Take it.
No.
Mister!
Mister, I haven't seen you for ages!
-The boy Chairman Jeong liked at first was
-Have you been well?
-Yeong-min.
-I played soccer at school.
He spent a lot of time with Yeong-min
and talked a lot, as well.
And I was the best
at blowing the balloons, too.
Hello, sir.
-Thank you so much for your support.
-Don't mention it.
Eun-seong, come here.
Later, I found out
that he only donated generously
to ask about Eun-seong.
Eun-seong resembles his late son so much.
JQ CHARITY EVENT OF HAPPINESS
When it was settled
that he would adopt Eun-seong,
it was very hard on Yeong-min.
CHILD PROFILE
YU EUN-SEONG
Ma'am.
Yeong-min.
Why did he choose
Eun-seong?
Why
didn't he pick me?
Yeong-min. Oh, Yeong-min.
Mr. Jin.
Please come with us.
You're under arrest for abduction
and battery of Jeong Sang-hun.
You have the right to consult an attorney,
the chance to exonerate yourself,
and file for habeas corpus
in challenging the arrest.
Are you aware of your rights?
Come with us.
YEONGWON CHILDREN'S HOME
He was the last person Mr. Jeong spoke to
on the phone before he disappeared.
He was also the one
who went to the woods to pick him up.
Yeong-min, I feel like I'm going crazy.
Will you tell me
once you get a call from Sang-hun?
Please.
Okay.
He already knew that Sang-hun was
at the hospital when I called him.
But he kept pretending to be clueless.
And he was well-acquainted
with Mr. Hong, too.
Were you the first one to propose
this new business
at your company?
-Yes.
-And before Mr. Jeong was appointed,
-He came up with the business plan,
-you were to assume the position.
-but he lost the seat to Sang-hun.
-You're currently the interim CEO.
-Is that correct?
-Yes, it is.
When my father and Sang-hun went
against the new business,
-he must have hated that the most.
-...the national competitiveness of Korea.
PROPOSE THE BILL FOR THE NEW BUSINESS
Seo-hui, I must do it.
Whatever that may be,
if I can save Sang-hun, I must do it.
So he must have wanted me
to propose the bill for the new business.
Did Yeong-min really do it?
DETECTIVE JO TAE-SIK
Yes, Detective Jo.
Okay.
I'll head over there now.
Detective Jo.
Smoking isn't allowed here.
Did you set up everything?
Yes. I set it up perfectly
and didn't make any mistakes this time.
And sir.
I'm sorry about the report.
Good job today.
Where is he?
Are you a man?
Yes.
What is your name?
It's Jin Yeong-min.
Let's move on.
Where is
Jeong Sang-hun?
I don't know.
On April 3, his foot was found
at the RMC factory.
You attended a seminar at work, correct?
-Yes.
-Where were you and what were you doing
that day at 7 p.m.?
I bought some snacks for the employees.
But no one actually saw you
around that time.
When I went to the office,
no one was inside.
You didn't deliberately go
when it was empty?
The employees saw you again at 7:30 p.m.
It was when the seminar had resumed.
In other words,
no one had seen you
during those 30 minutes.
And half an hour
is more than enough to make a round trip
from your company to the RMC factory.
Let me ask you again.
Mr. Jin,
did you leave
Jeong Sang-hun's foot at the factory?
Never.
He must have gotten ready for this.
I don't see any changes in the graph.
What about this, then?
What is this?
Why did you have this uniform?
It's not mine.
Then, how can you explain your DNAs
found on this uniform?
When I went to my office,
a box was on my desk.
And the uniform was inside the box.
The secretary didn't know
who had put it in my office.
-I was only trying to see what--
-That's a lie.
That's enough.
I didn't see anyone going
into your office in the security footages
except for you, Mr. Jin.
There was a blackout today
at our building.
-I think that's when--
-Why did you burn it then?
Why did you have to burn it?
The culprit dressed up as an employee
from the facility maintenance branch.
And no one knew except for the police
and the culprit.
You knew that this would be
considered evidence,
so you were trying to get rid of it.
Something felt off because it came
in the same box used for Sang-hun's limbs.
Whatever was inside the box,
I thought it had to be a trap.
Can't you see?
I'm being set up right now.
Someone set this up,
so I'll be framed for this.
The real culprit who harmed Sang-hun.
Wait.
QUICK QUICK
-Give me that.
-Try it one more time.
-Are you done?
-Yes. Almost.
I need to look this over.
Where's the entertainment team?
The entertainment team?
Over there.
Come over here.
Hey, put this up for me.
-Check it quickly.
-Okay.
Excuse me.
Sir, are you waiting for a parcel?
No.
BAREUN NEWS
Please ask him this question.
Ask him
if he had ever been jealous
of Sang-hun in his life.
Have you never been jealous
of Jeong Sang-hun? Not even once?
No, never. Not even once.
Even when Sang-hun became
the CEO of the new business
and you didn't?
Even when Jeong Sang-hun stole
the CEO seat from you?
No.
Even when
Father chose Sang-hun as his son,
instead of you?
Then, how about
when Chairman Jeong Yeong-mun chose
Yu Eun-seong as his son?
How did you feel?

Hey, I just got a call.
-What's going on?
-They just got an eye.
-What?
-Speak slowly.
A newspaper agency got an eye.
What?
I just received a call.
A newspaper agency received his eye.
Jeong Sang-hun's eye.
What?
His hand, foot, and eye this time.
Do you really think
the culprit left a message?
The woman who jumped off
the rooftop of her apartment.
Perhaps, she might not have
committed suicide.
It cannot be a coincidence, sir.
I am certain that someone
is trying to dig up that incident.
I keep thinking
that it's connected to our case.
I'm scared, too. The sides of Sang-hun
I don't know about...
Do you think
Jeong Sang-hun is still alive?
Which side is the real you?
