I jerked my son off.
His mental age was four, but he grew quickly,
so I jerked him off since he was 13.
He didn't know how to relieve the urge,
and he'd scrape his skin and bleed too.
When I was doing it,
his moans pierced my ears.
It began as a therapy,
but there was a weird sense of guilt in that sound.
Waking up in the morning, I wished we were gone.
But thinking back, it was the best thing I did for him.
I should've done it until the day I died.
I regret that.
Hey.
What are you doing?
What?
Why aren't you answering your phone?
Couldn't you be more prepared?
With the field trip, did you change your mind?
- MISSED CALL FROM WIFE - YOUR PHONE'S OFF, CALL ME ASAP
If there is a measure in place to manage the nuclear waste,
I'll help the governor convince the residents there.
Good.
You know this business was started by heads of the party?
I don't know about that.
Here he comes.
Good afternoon.
JOHAN'S IN TROUBLE
Thanks to wonderful PR, you elevated yourself
from an herbs doctor to a district councilor.
CHINESE HERBAL CLINIC KOO MYUNG-HUI
So splintering from the party was the reason you got on TV.
Being a Chinese college graduate didn't do you any favors though.
Does he answer your calls?
Yes, of course.
Councilor Koo's battery...
He's more popular than you, governor.
But the thing is,
we're going in one direction, but you're going in another.
What's your plan?
Considering our children's future,
I believe that inconvenience is better than apprehension.
Don't say what you don't mean, I know your PR is the goal.
What's the point of taking economy flights,
and frequent trips to Japan with your own money?
A single search will reveal the truth.
It's as if you're putting on a show to become a governor.
The residents aren't as ignorant as you believe, councilor.
I don't know much about that,
we're all connected,
tightly interwoven like the spider web.
If you try to mess it up, would the spider stay put?
Councilor.
- Afternoon, councilor. - Hello there.
- Thank you. - It's an honor.
- Seo-won? - Yes?
Did something happen at home?
I didn't get any calls...
Councilor.
- Good to meet you. - Thank you, sir.
Be well.
Seo-won, sit down.
Yes, sir, my apologies.
HAVE YOU ARRIVED? JOHAN'S IN TROUBLE
WIFE
WE OPPOSE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
REMOVE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT DEVELOPMENT ZONE
It's okay, you can leave that, councilor.
Putting ads on taxis...
There're too many crazies, right? Where did they leave their heads?
I wish to praise the Lord...
Honey?
Why won't you answer the phone? What's going on?
Turn it off!
Why? What's wrong?
- No lights! No! - What's wrong?
No lights...
No...
Why?
What is it?
What's that behind you?
What happened?
Johan took the car last night...
Christ...
Who is he?
How should I know?
Did he have an ID or wallet in his pockets?
He didn't have a single cent.
Where's Johan?
Open the door!
Why, honey?
Give me the key.
Johan, it's mom.
Johan, please answer me!
Johan! Open this door!
Hold on!
Where did it happen?
He drove on the coastal road...
Tell me yourself!
He came out of nowhere on the way home.
So?
I wanted to take him to the ER, but came here instead.
Did he die on the way?
Did you drink?
That's why you took the coastal road.
Was there anyone else?
- No witnesses?! - None.
Look at me.
No one?
Yeah.
Tell the cops exactly that.
We gotta find out who he is before we...
Find out how?
Hit-and-run's punishment gets harsher as time drags on.
A day has already past.
It's not a hit-and-run!
What about the body?
What do you want to do then?
If he turns himself in now, probation is a possibility.
We can't hide it, and even if we do,
we'll be slaves to it all our lives.
It's your car.
You take the fault.
Johan.
Yeah, the main wing.
I'm here!
What are you saying, speak properly!
Yeah, I see you.
I saw you!
Joong-sik!
What took you so long?
Stop overreacting!
Detective!
My son is on his honeymoon.
I see.
I think there's been a misunderstanding.
His name came up after a fingerprint query.
Oh no...
Did you see him?
Did you?
I was too scared to!
Dammit!
What are you crying for then?!
- Show him the body please. - Certainly.
See, it's not him.
Not the floater, the hit-and-run.
I'm sorry.
Not him?
JOHN DOE
No.
No way...
It's not him?
My son isn't here.
He can't be.
The phone you are trying to call...
Mr Yoo, please take another...
It's not him!
You bastard...
My boy isn't supposed to be here...
It's him...
It's our Bu-nam...
The body's identified.
He's the kindest boy in the world...
What's going on...
My Lord...
No, please, this can't be...
It's not Bu-nam.
He can't be here.
KOO - "MY SON WILL ACCEPT PUNISHMENT"
Son of a popular governorship candidate Koo Myung-hui
turned himself in for a hit-and-run today.
My son will cooperate fully with the investigation...
Being the chair of Nuclear Power Plant committee,
this turn of event is a huge shock to his supporters.
Was he drunk?
Did he drink?
Why did he turn himself in after two full days?
Is it due to discovery of a dash cam?
I am ashamed to face the victim's family,
but I wanted my son to fully accept his mistake,
and turn himself in on his own accord.
I'm so sorry.
Will you forfeit your governorship candidacy?
That will be all, please excuse us!
One more comment please!
Revoke resignation of Power Plant Committee chair!
His father runs a hardware store that installs air conditioners in Seoul,
and the victim was a mentally challenged man.
I looked into it just in case,
he has a long list of criminal record.
Over 10 for buying sexual services.
Whose?
He must've been with his father, their records are similar.
Why should I even bother then?
Was it you?
Did you do this?
Did you kill my boy?
Talk to me!
Let him be, he wants to talk.
I just don't understand, it's killing me!
Joong-sik, the councilor's here.
I'm so sorry, Mr Yoo.
Let's go inside and talk.
Wait a minute!
What about Ryeon-hwa?
Pardon?
My daughter-in-law was with him.
Did you see her?
She stays with him even when he poops.
If there was an accident, she had to be with him.
I'm sorry.
Did you laugh?
You bastard!
What's so funny about killing a person?!
Let's just talk!
- We can talk this through! - You bastard!
- What did you do?! - Stop it!
Is she dead too?!
Tell me!
Of all people, why my boy?!
I have to talk to them!
I'm sorry!
Stop!
No photos, please!
Come and tie things up here.
Out of the way!
Could we get a comment?
One comment please!
Stop!
- Dammit... - Stop!
Stop!
- Come on, step on it! - Stop! Stop this van!
Did we run him over?
Joong-sik!
I met our attorney.
Probation is on the table.
Where's the woman?
What woman?
The dead man's woman.
What exactly are you thinking?
He was alive when he was brought here.
Are you asking what I did?
You didn't see her?
A witness could prove that we hid the body,
and an autopsy will reveal the time of death.
If there's a witness, it's all over.
It's already over.
But not for you.
What do you mean?
Why did you take him back?
What?
Hit-and-run is okay to apologize and get punished but not this?
Sentence is different.
No!
You made a judgment call,
that hit-and-run is easier on your career than body disposal.
And you have the guts to ask me,
what did I do with the girl?
How is this shithole a hotel?
- Hello? - Dae-hee.
Did you get anything?
I'll call you back.
No cash, no personal items.
There was one thing.
Sir.
So they were here on their honeymoon?
You didn't know.
This kind of case is quite common.
A ton of girls leave after receiving marriage certificate.
Who's the broker?
Congratulations on your Pregnancy!
What are you doing?
Where is the bitch? Where did she run off to?!
What do you mean? You took the girl!
Look at this.
She didn't run off, huh?
Fuck, you're a real son of a bitch!
What did you say?
It's because you didn't get her a marriage certificate!
Let her go, we can just talk!
Stop it!
What did you just say?
Are you deaf?
No one wants to be a cumbag and get deported!
You set them up months ago, but not a marriage certificate.
Keeping looking at it.
Maybe you'll find its name on it.
I wouldn't have said so either, asshole.
Have some manners when you talk to him.
The body was found two days after the accident.
What exactly happened?
The victim's family made complaints to the police today.
The police stated that the road was barely used...
Come with me.
Refund the men who didn't cum and send them away.
The door's locked.
Jeez...
Bring him some water.
The wedding is barely over.
What's with this crisis all of sudden?
They returned the body and kidnapped her!
You know.
If anyone knows, that'd be you.
It's been 3-4 months since you took her.
What the hell did you say? Shut your fucking hole!
No calls?
Nothing.
If something happened, she'd have called me.
Bullshit! I'm an ex-cop, I say she was kidnapped.
Shut up, fuck face!
Stop it, Mena!
Stop! Now!
I talked to the prosecutor.
- CHIEF PROSECUTOR KIM - He asked me how we should...
Did he confess to drinking?
It could've been left out, make sure to check that.
Honey.
Let's go by the book.
Hiding details now could have consequences later.
Did you contact the Special Committee?
Yes, meeting is set for tomorrow.
Councilor, are you thinking about dropping out?
A person is dead.
But it was an accident.
Is there anything else?
I've looked into the missing woman.
The hotel had an exterior security cam,
she was seen just after the time of the accident.
The police believe that since she's an illegal alien,
she fled after his death.
So?
Pardon?
Did I ask you to look into that?
Why did you do something I didn't even ask?
I...
should've sent you to a nicer hotel.
I'm sorry.
I'll find Ryeon-hwa.
I'm sorry, son.
The body was returned to the scene,
and his wife was kidnapped?
Yes.
Then why turn himself in?
That's your job to figure out!
Who filled you with this theory? Which cop was it?
I can't tell you.
I don't know what undie I put on or what breakfast I ate,
but I'm certain your theory is wrong.
Did we miss it?
We discovered this while checking a dash cam of a different accident.
Since it's such an isolated and dangerous area,
only garbage trucks and drunk drivers use this road.
There aren't any checkpoints here.
You should get a lawyer first.
There aren't any crosswalks or sidewalks,
so it could also be the victim's fault.
Stay down.
All businesses have favorable and adverse effects.
We cannot put up with the negatives for the overwhelming positives.
If it threatens...
even 1%
of our lives, then I...
I believe that it's not too late to continue the business
after creating a plan to deal with the worst scenario.
It's a goddamn circus.
So even the almighty Koo Myung-hui goes down.
Lastly, I'd like to apologize
to my fellow members of this party.
We'll select a new chair for the Power Plant Committee
in our next meeting due to Councilor Koo's resignation.
Hello, I need to find someone.
Call me from your cell phone.
"YONGHO SERVICE" "SERVANT 911"
Hel...
Yes sir?
If you're calling from a phone booth for privacy,
that's important for us too.
Our fee isn't cheap.
Ease of mind comes with a price, after all.
There are ways to do this
without you ever getting involved.
If you change your mind,
- call me from your cell phone. - A WITNESS CAME FORWARD
There's bad mojo in that area.
Us residents never walk on that road.
That night, I heard brake screech, and bam!
Like a watermelon exploding, so I knew something was hit.
I see.
Then I saw a girl running down.
She was in a rush to get somewhere.
Where?
Well...
I don't know that!
Did you see the car?
Yeah, it drove off quick.
Did you go to the crime scene?
We don't walk over there!
Since he took off, I thought he drunkenly hit something.
You didn't see anything, why did you come here?
There was...
another person.
What?
It looked like the girl was being chased.
By whom?
My view was obstructed,
so I'm not too sure...
It's okay, you can tell me.
This man was there!
Who? Me?
Are you insane?!
Then how did you injure your leg?!
Stop that!
She was last seen near the bus terminal,
and she took a bus to Incheon.
Check with immigration office.
They're the experts at finding illegal aliens.
She saw something, she is indeed being chased.
I'll consent to his autopsy.
Councilor!
Please sit down.
Okay.
So you witnessed the accident?
Yes, I saw.
Testimony went great, don't you worry.
This incident can't interfere with your committee work.
- What color was the car? - Black, of course!
Who ordered you?
Ordered what?
Why are you lying?
How could I lie, councilor?
You didn't see it, right?
I didn't see the accident,
but I did see the girl running away!
Cops verified it too!
The girl in yellow!
A Chinese denizen.
Yes, late 20s.
Yes.
Her online shopping list and family info?
How should I give it to you?
Yes, I understand.
Stop eating that.
You'll do what?
He's so thoughtless.
No, no, nothing like that.
I just need you to find her.
Yes, send me the address.
The dead are gone, we got it worse.
I prefer nursing over loneliness, so don't you worry.
I'll use his phone for a while.
And your father?
Why does this man need a phone?
Why did you change the door passcode?
It's been a few years, son.
Johan is well.
A family doesn't mean much when out of sight.
Blood ties don't mean anything.
Do you have $10,000?
It's my house deed.
Get the cash and drop it off at this address tomorrow.
After the trial, I'll transfer the house to you.
LEAVE IT AT LOCKER 28, INCHEON, 1028 FOREVER EDU CENTER
If you don't see it, that's fine.
No, I found it.
It's right here.
You're back.
Why don't you answer your phone?
Your sister's restaurant is near my office,
my apologies for dropping in unannounced.
Yeah!
Even a killer should be given a chance to explain himself...
Why are you giving him that?
They wanted to see Bu-nam...
My boy was alive for 6 hours.
Lying on the cold concrete,
"Dad, dad," he must've called for me.
When I think about that...
Bu-nam...
If you were me, what the hell would you do?
Tell me.
My poor Bu-nam...
- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.
When a boat passes, it leaves a wave of trail,
I'd be lying if I said I know how you feel.
Mother.
What?
You brought me here to help.
If I could die to bring back your son,
I'd gladly do so.
But the thing is,
what's the point of showing us this heinous photo?
Heinous?
It's not a fair trade, you already lived a long life.
So it's about money.
Mother!
You had to pour gas on the fire? To mourners?
Listen, lady.
We got plenty of money.
Thanks to you all, we got plenty of insurance money!
With my logic, that's the only explanation.
What?
My missing daughter-in-law...
I find you suspicious.
If you found her and did anything to her,
if that's ever uncovered,
you bitches and assholes,
it won't matter who you are,
I'll explode you all to pieces.
My gosh...
Nothing will get through to this man.
Get out.
Get the hell out of my home!
Joong-sik! Joong-sik!
I'm sorry...
Hey!
That was too much!
Did you have to swear, to the councilor, no less.
Are you nuts?
You are!
Do you really think they harmed Ryeon-hwa?
This is tough on me.
No one comes to my shop, they're afraid we'll shoo him away.
Ryeon-hwa is pregnant.
What?
Really?
Is there a ghost playing tricks on us?
Should we get a shaman or something?
I was told to aim for the neck of our country's great man.
I can't and won't find anything until that happens.
Find what?
Did you go see a shaman?
Is it really Bu-nam's baby?
- But... - I terminated his insurance.
Why not?
Why not!
I didn't want anyone to harm him for the insurance money.
Jeez...
Go away.
Tell them to piss off.
I didn't come here for the insurance money.
Contact the sister.
What? Who?
Ryeon-hwa's sister.
I heard they came to Korea together.
Why didn't you tell me that earlier?!
Did you even ask?!
Did you ever consult me for anything?
You're too much.
One moment, please.
Allow me to apologize.
Don't take what my mother said to heart.
I don't have a lot of say in this.
I heard that, my words mean shit?
Get your husband.
He took father to the washroom.
Yeah, my tummy feels weird too.
She's a real pain in the ass.
I'm sorry.

Hello?
Who is it?
Good day.
Are you Ms. Lee Su-ryun?
I'm Ryeon-hwa's father-in-law.
Did you leave Harbin together?
Yanbian.
What?
Men here like girls from Harbin more than Yanbian.
Same shit though.
Go away.
I don't know her anymore.
Aren't you her cousin?
Second pussy.
What?
You know, mistress.
From the same womb, different seeds.
Ryeon-hwa went missing.
Did you come here with any other family members?
Did you do something to her?
If not, she won't come back.
To be frank, we're in-laws,
aren't you even worried that your sister went missing?
Why should I worry about someone who did this to me?!
Honey, let's eat.
Being born as a girl is worse than a calf.
A daughter of a mistress, she's already got it bad.
A rejected child has to buy her name and family history.
To get here, and to survive,
we did unspeakable things.
This scar...
She did this out of a jealousy because I'm getting married first.
If you try to hurt her even a little, she'll get her payback.
Don't look for her.
No good will come to you by keeping her.
Her nature is different.
That fucking whore...
Shit...
UNKNOWN CALLER
Did you find her? Ms. Choi Ryeon-hwa.
Do you have her?
Christ...
Why put up the missing person flyer if you won't answer the phone?
Who are you?
Don't worry about it, just send $20,000.
You're not the only one looking for her.
- What? - LIONS CLUB
You gotta find her before others take her.
What happened?
Same thing with your shop?
I think the whole building blacked out.
Where are you going?
The Chinese tourists entered Korea on a cruise ship,
and disappeared after moving to tourist areas on taxis.
Police and maritime officers are searching for them...
Come have fun, baby.
We're closed!
I called so long ago, why haven't you left yet?
Sir.
Is she here?
Hey!
Some bastard cut off power to the whole building.
Apple wasn't feeling well, so she went home early.
Not here yet?
What the...
Loan collector Mr Kim?
Massage parlor broker Mr Choi?
Don't kill me.
I just held him.
Su-ryun cut his throat.
She made me do it.
Is Su-ryun already dead?
Don't kill me...
Don't...
Please...
Father?
Is that you?
I'm sorry...
After I lost Bu-nam, I looked for him till morning.
I was so scared...
Who are you? Who sent you?
What the hell did you do to my eyes?!
Don't kill me...
I beg you.
Please...
Don't kill me...
Live a good life.
Okay, will you let me go?
So savage...
You brought tools.
Honored to meet you, councilor.
I thought privacy meant life to you.
Of course.
Or I would've have said so.
So the blackout wasn't a coincidence.
Take it as a favor.
Cigarette?
If I've offended you, I apologize.
You got money and power, I wondered why you were doing this.
It's one of two things.
No one to trust or can't trust anyone.
What do you want?
What do I want?
How did you find her?
It's a trade secret.
The flash drive you gave me.
Habit is a scary thing.
She bought and shipped something to her Busan shop.
What did you put over her eyes?
Watch out, bitch!
What should I do? Want some help?
Finish her off?
Say it, councilor.
Kill her?
Yes.
Thank you.
Yong-gu!
Yes?
Looks like an accident.
Stop, stop!
What are you doing at this hour?
This energy drink is best when amniotic fluid is low.
Drink one big bottle a day.
Here.
How did you find me?
Here.
This photo is worth $20,000.
But if it wasn't for it, I wouldn't have found you.
Drink it.
You should've called me first.
I couldn't find him even in the morning.
I looked everywhere but there was no trace.
Thinking that something had happened,
I was scared...
I'm sorry, father.
You couldn't have found him.
He was found in the waterway.
No, I looked even in the forest, he was gone.
Father, will I be taken away?
I can't get deported.
They'll review your case.
I talked to the police, so don't worry.
You even searched the waterway?
Bu-nam likes leaves,
I searched ditches, all the way to the beach.
What's this?
The leg is visible on October 8,
but not on the 7th.
Accident took place on the 6th.
A leg can be tricky to see,
but a dead man puts his leg up on the road?
A dead man?
This is...
murder.
Koo's family disposed of the body together?
How did I miss this?
Did she see them take him away?
If she did, would she run away?
Indeed.
Indeed?!
That's all you can say?!
I told you! Incompetent asshole!
One second, sir!
Incompetent?! I've had it with you!
That's enough!
Please, calm down.
He bled so much, if we get a search warrant,
we'll find a ton of blood on the car and at his house.
No blood was found on his car.
And the house?
It's undergoing renovation.
Lights, please.
The forensics tech has evolved so much,
but they didn't find a single drop of blood?
That's weird.
Let's ask.
Ask what?
Ask who?
Goddammit!
Father?
What the hell...
Damn...
Father?
Hello there.
It's alright, it's fine.
Sit down.
It's okay, please sit.
I'm his lawyer Hwang...
Now I understand why your father put you here.
We found a witness.
My daughter-in-law Ryeon-hwa was at the scene.
She saw you put the body in the car.
Yes, she did.
She did.
There's a car that drives there 365 days a year,
we didn't find Bu-nam on dash cam footage.
Because you took him alive and he died,
so you put him back, right?
If you took him to the ER, he could've lived,
but you killed him.
That's...
Illegal disposal of a body.
Illegal disposal of a body!
Yeah, that.
Hit-and-run and murder are good for death penalty.
That's right, death penalty.
Did you do it?
Or did you do it with your parents?
Buddy!
Tell me.
Could you get my father?
What?
Get my father.
Look at this punk ass.
Is this a hotel? Are you on a trip?
Please, just get my father!
Wait! Please!
How could you arrest a pregnant woman?
Since when did Korea become so heartless?
Come on.
The situation is bad!
Make way!
Move! Move!
Do your damn job!
Give me her file!
Choi Ryeon-hwa has two outstanding charges.
Yeah.
Did you press charges?
Yeah.
To find you...
Don't worry.
My lawyer said after your deportation, you can come...
No way!
I have to go to jail.
If I stay here, I'll be deported in two weeks.
Did you drop it?
Yeah.
So I won't go to jail?
Of course not, you got a baby...
Get deported first,
- then with proper paperwork... - Shit, screw that!
Ryeon-hwa!
What?!
- To come to Korea... - Yeah?
I killed someone to come to Korea.
He was a dog's fucking dick.
He deserved what he got.
Father.
- Dad. - Yes?
Please help save Bu-nam's baby.
Yeah...
You promise?
Jail isn't like your own home, why'd she want to go there?
With her charges dropped, cops aren't interested in her.
That's not what's important.
Johan...
attempted suicide.
With a pencil,
he slashed it here.
Something you said must've poked his guilt.
The body was disposed, but there's no blood.
No matter how I look at it, it's all wrong.
Either they're working with the police,
or they swapped cars, that's gotta be it.
So I looked into his car,
he had it totaled.
But he has two cars.
The car Johan drove that night is supposedly Grandeur,
which belongs to Koo's wife,
and Koo has a BMW under his name.
He totaled the BMW before Johan turned himself in.
Which means,
they swapped cars.
- And Ryeon-hwa's kidnapping. - There's no evidence.
Why not? There is.
Since the car is in good shape,
the mechanics sold it overseas.
- Where is this? - Pakistan.
It takes about as long as the Hibiscus train ride to Busan.
Wait a minute.
We'll go there and get the evidence back.
- The reporters... - What's the address
of the person who pressed charges against Ryeon-hwa?
Oh Seok-hee, City of Wegwan...
I'll get the case reopened for concealment of evidence.
Let's start using the media.
- He's insane. - REQUEST TO INVESTIGATE OH SEOK-HEE
He killed someone and will go to the election.
Aren't you happy?
Let's go.
Wegwan...
Are Hibiscus trains still around?
The Dove train's gone...
- Honey. - Huh?
Go get some rest.
Anyone home?
Hello?
Are you here to see the house?
An old bachelor named Oh lived here.
He had a limp,
but he must've been quite capable,
he married a young girl.
You idiot.
That's not being capable.
He married an illegal migrant.
She left him because she didn't get a marriage certificate.
She got tired of waiting.
He looked so much for her, drank himself to oblivion,
he went stir crazy.
He said he found her, but I guess he didn't see her.
This slanted one is him.
He limped his leg.
Where is he now?
He's dead.
What?
Six feet under.
That idiot got drunk and jumped off a cliff.
That's bullshit, you know it.
He's too anal to kill himself like that.
He went around asking about where to get dental implants,
why'd he commit suicide after getting dental implants?
It looked like she was trying to get away.
Quite similar, in age and size.
Don't look for her.
Her nature is different.
That fucking whore...
Hello?
Good evening.
I'm Ryeon-hwa's father-in-law,
I got something to ask you.
Hello? Hello?
WEGWAN STATION
Why now?
I was told to snap the neck of our country's great man.
I won't know anything until then...
I have a condition.
Don't let my daughter-in-law get deported.
Murderer! He's a murderer!
Don't settle! You can't, sir!
Mr Yoo!
Dude! You stupid idiot!
- What's with him? - We gotta go to Pakistan!
I got one myself.
Have some.
It's a $50 lunch.
What?
We're working to stop your deportation, don't worry.
How?
You don't need to know.
Tell father I'll get back $20,000 he got ripped off.
$20,000?
He must be thrilled, yeah?
Right?
Bu-nam...
More than any of my supporters,
I brought a guest here in the spirit of forgiveness.
GYEONGNAM PROVINCE GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION
I forgot the paper...
I forgot to bring my speech.
Hello.
I'm Yoo Joong-sik.
The reason why I'm here before you is...
I...
Actually I'm...
Um...
I jerked my son off, I mean...
I masturbated him myself.
I first...
I first started it when he was 13.
He didn't know how to relieve the urge,
and he scraped his skin trying to do it,
and bled too.
When I did it for him,
his moans pierced my ears.
At the time,
it was inconceivably unbearable.
But when I think about it now...
You can use this.
I regret that I can't do it until the day I die.
Had I done that, my son...
Yes...
He wouldn't have met Councilor Koo like this.
I lost my son recently.
The reason why I'm here is
to support the man whose son killed my son.
His sincerity for forgiveness and honesty melted my rage!
So I volunteered
to assist Councilor Koo's governorship campaign,
and reached here today!
KOO MYUNG-HUI - YOO JOONG-SIK SPECIAL LECTURE
I...
I support him!
His honesty!
I support him!
Koo Myung-hui!
Koo Myung-hui! Koo Myung-hui!
Ryeon-hwa!
- Ryeon-hwa! - Yes?
Bye, see you again.
Take care of yourselves!
"Koo Myung-hui"? Who is he?
Are you hungry? Let's go eat.
Heartbeat's normal.
She's malnourished and has a frail uterus, be careful.
I see, okay.
Are there any private rooms?
The waiting list is about 2-3 weeks.
Let's go home, father.
There's a chance of premature labor, stay here.
The lawyer told me,
I'm better candidate than a total stranger for this.
MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE YOO JOONG-SIK - CHOI RYEON-HWA
It's just formality, so don't worry.
Father...
Father, I'll do my best!
Just trust me.
I'll do my best...
Get changed, go on.
Don't cry.
It's not good...
Okay...
- Why are you here? - Don't say that.
Later, she needs her rest.
Just a moment, let us see her.
- Go away! - Just for a bit.
My gosh!
- Boss? - Ryeon-hwa!
Ryeon-hwa, how are you?
I'm okay.
- That's good... - I was so worried.
Ryeon-hwa!
Ryeon-hwa, Ryeon-hwa!
Yes?
- I'm late. - Mr Yoo, welcome.
Thank you.
I brought my daughter-in-law.
Good evening.
Good to meet you.
Thank you, councilor, he told me so much about you.
He's been helping me quite a bit, nice to meet you.
Here.
Thank you.
Please sit, over there.
Welcome.
Sir, which cologne do you use?
Pardon?
It's familiar.
Pregnancy made me quite sensitive to scents.
Is my aftershave too strong?
So it's an aftershave.
You said you're hungry, dig in.
You said so.
Yeah.
Are you about 6 months?
Yes.
It's a difficult period, right?
When I had my child, the morning sickness...
Where in Yanbian?
I'm from Harbin, not Yanbian.
I know by your accent.
We lived in China for a long time because of his business.
Eat, eat!
Mother, she's a Korean citizen now.
I see.
Councilor, they'd like a photo op...
Tell them to wait a bit.
- Mr Yoo. - Yes?
Could I borrow you for a moment?
Yes, of course.
- We'll be right back. - Sure thing.
Eat slowly.
Harbin people don't like Yanbian people.
Is that so?
Indeed, they often say they're from Harbin.
Who spat a gum here?
There's a clock on the photo.
Get me the client number who reserved at that hour.
I returned a shirt that wasn't my size.
I don't believe this.
It was 3-4 days before I was kidnapped...
Yeah.
So what?
They're all fucking swindlers and slanderers.
Call me.
Hey, lady.
Granny.
Where do you live?
Why do you ask?
You know what?
Knife cuts can be healed,
but not wounds made by ill words.
Tell me.
Wanna come visit me?
Are you deaf?!
Not wounds with ill words.
Candidate #1, Koo Myung-hui!
Vote for him please!
Candidate #1, Koo Myung-hui!
Mr Yoo!
Hello!
Candidate #1, Koo Myung-hui!
3348-4982.
Weren't you kidnapped with a Korando?
Yeah?
The one who photographed you must've caused the blackout.
- What do you mean? - PRIVATE INVESTIGATION YONGHO SERVICE
- He came in the same car. - PRIVATE INVESTIGATION YONGHO SERVICE
It was weird so I asked my cop friend to look it up.
He was a cop too.
He's a private dick now.
His name is...
Kim Yong-gu.
I got it, thank you.
Ryeon-hwa, will you stay a while?
I need to run to the bank.
Okay, go ahead.
That john who just went in, he wants you to do him.
Perverted bastard, he knows I'm a preggo.
Ryeon-hwa, just an hour.
He wants soft touch, I'll be right back.
Kim Yong-gu, Kim Yong-gu...
CEO KIM YONG-GU
Jesus!
Come on!
Couldn't you cover it up?
I'm a busy man...
Her head's gone.
The killer staged it to look like a murder-suicide.
There are a ton of fingerprints...
- Do something. - ..but no matches.
The door.
Verify one more thing.
No way!
This is bad omen...
I only met them once.
I know nothing!
You talked to the killer!
I did?
The killer took Lee Su-ryun's phone,
you're the last person on its call log.
This is Wegwan City.
October 28, 11 PM, at the station.
I think it's in that box.
The head, Lee Su-ryun's.
Have you seen him or met him?
Would you like some tea?
I'll start the massage.
Happy ending?
What?
How much?
$50 for a handjob.
Do you want it?
Nervous?
What?
Why won't it get hard?
By your accent, you're a Korean now.
Do you know me?
I know the owner of that box.
Continue.
Maybe I should've waited until you got deported.
Your father-in-law is a great guy.
He knows all about you.
If I had a father like him...
my life could've been different.
FATHER
Yes, hello?
He hung up.
Hey, she's doing it.
What?
They're going at it in there.
Our shop's not like that.
You can hear them banging.
You shouldn't discriminate.
That's just wrong.
Ryeon-hwa?
Mr Yoo!
Sir, you can't go in there!
Stop!
Wait, please...
What are you doing?
Bu-nam couldn't have kids...
Why didn't you tell me?
Were you lonely?
I'll keep my promise, that's the truth.
I'm leaving.
I had his tubes cut...
Kkam! Come eat!
Kkam, come eat! Kkam, come eat!
Kkam, come eat!
Bu-nam, you're taller, change the lightbulb.
I'm recording, be quiet!
Kkam, come eat! Kkam, come eat!
I'm recording now.
At 11 PM, there was a terror incident at this location.
Admiral Yi Sun-sin's head was greatly damaged.
No one was injured in the explosion,
but the police have not ruled out additional explosions.
EXPLOSION ON STATUE'S NECK REGION
Terror suspect Yoo was captured
by the police who were in the area.
The police will investigate his exact motive.
He laughed...
...Yi's head fell to the Gwanghwamun Square.
The authorities are working to prevent further explosions.
Sporting blonde hair and campaign uniform of Councilor Koo...
A large crowd has gathered...
People are gathering at the square to mourn the terror incident.
I heard that bastard is Koo's campaign leader.
He was able to make the homemade bomb by
working as an air conditioner fixer for over 24 years.
So he was adept at working with electrical devices.
The terror suspect recently got a marriage certificate
with his deceased son's Chinese denizen wife.
Do you have a contingency plan or what?!
We poured so much into this election!
Honey.
She...
Ryeon-hwa is here.
She wants you to come.
Can you get here quick?
Hello? Where are you?
Has that old man gone mad?
So it was cologne, he lied to my face.
Ms. Choi...
I gotta get $20,000 from Yongho Service, but he's missing.
- You know? - What?
Live a good life.
Mister.
Did Mr Yoo order you?
Didn't I just tell you?
What are you doing?
You're gonna kill a person for measly $20,000?
Lady,
he only paid $10,000 to kill me, right?
Don't do this, Ryeon-hwa.
You can't do this too...
Think about your father-in-law.
You knew I was here, but you sent your mother?
To die?
I knew you looked familiar,
but it wasn't because of the cologne.
This rotting smell...
Come.
Maybe you'll save your woman.
Don't do that!
Don't!
I'll... I'll give you the money...
Take the money!
I knew you'd wimp out.
You fucking bastard.
Out there, they're calling it an act of terror.
It's worse than when hundreds of people are killed.
Was it out of revenge?
Mr Yoo.
Did you order her to kill them?
I didn't know...
I had a bad illness,
but it didn't hurt...
