Lim Bok-ja is the tenant. She has foreign nationality.
There's no deposit, but the rent is really high.
Her restaurant isn't doing well, so why would she keep it for that money?
Business is bad during the day…
SELECTED 6 ITEMS
…but it thrives at night.
It's a gambling den. When did you take those?
They do this on top of everything else?
Do these people ever sleep?
Gambling is the easiest way
-to launder money. -Right.
It's a win-win situation for them.
Let's get started.
On what?
The grand opening.
The grand opening?
What grand opening?
Did he open a business?
-No idea. -What did he open?
If he wants to get started, we will.
They say the hands are faster than the eyes.
Let's see if my hands are indeed faster than your eyes.
All right. If you win this round,
I'll pay triple.
What are you waiting for? Take your pick.
-This one! -I won this time.
I got this one.
All right. Let's check now.
Gosh, what a shame.
I'll take…
What are you trying to pull?
Hey, that hurts.
It hurts. Let go!
Are you messing with me right now?
Hey.
Open your hand.
Why do we have so many troublemakers today?
What's going on here?
Everyone, out!
Are you in charge here?
Before you begin to shout at me,
open this crook's hand and check.
What's going on?
Damn it.
Don't you dare try to lie to me.
Tell the truth.
He suddenly grabbed my arm and started talking nonsense.
Hey, asshole.
Have you gone insane?
-You little jerk-- -Enough!
We're still open.
Everyone here came to have fun.
Don't be so menacing.
Are you sure you didn't deceive me?
I'm telling you.
Then let's do this.
If you were holding an extra yellow ball,
then there has to be a yellow ball
in one of these cups, correct?
I'm here to make some money anyway.
Let's end it with one round.
I say there is no yellow ball
in either of these cups.
All in.
No, wait.
I said it'll be this one round.
It's 100 burner phones up and running.
How much
collateral can I be guaranteed?
Stop calculating numbers in your head.
Be a man and tell me how much!
Forget it.
-I'm done. -You stupid idiot.
You're fired.
I'm off to a wonderful start tonight.
I'm scared.
Of course, you are.
These guys aren't a joke.
Can't we report them to the police and arrest them?
No!
Sorry. I didn't mean it.
Stay strong.
Even Mr. Kim said money comes before people this time.
But why?
Let's report them and get them arrested.
Can you at least ask Mr. Jang?
Of course, I can.
We can't.
Even if we raid them and arrest them,
we can't get people's money back.
They already withdrew the money and hid it away.
Even if they sue them, they'll barely manage to pay the lawyer.
Right? Goodness.
He kept insisting that I ask you.
I thought I made myself clear.
Just do as Do-ki says.
Okay?
Oh, can you go into the office tomorrow
to work on the payroll?
Just stay calm.
As long you're calm, you won't get caught.
Trust me.
Yes.
You can do it, Jin-eon!
-You can do it! -I can do it.
Hey, kid.
-You can do it! -I can do it!
You can do it!
-Hello. -They're all telling me I can do it.
Yes, I'm calling today on behalf of…
Okay. I can't just sit here like this.
No, it's a makeup product.
Hello?
-I'm from Seoul Prosecutors' Office… -My name is Wang Min-ho--
Hello? Hello?
Hello? Don't hang up. I'm Wang Min-ho from the Northern District Prosecutors' Office.
Get lost, you fraud.
I'm seriously about to cry.
Should I write up a summons?
All I need to do is ask a few questions on the phone.
Do I really need a summons?
Those voice phishing scammers completely ruined our trade.
Goodness.
PROSECUTOR KANG HA-NA
By the way, where did Prosecutor Kang go?
PASSENGER REFUSAL WILL LEAD TO BOYCOTTS
-Thank you. -Enjoy.
Does Mr. Kim Do-ki take leaves often?
I wouldn't know.
You should ask the office staff.
I went there, but no one was around.
Really?
You'll find their numbers over there.
I guess they took time off together again.
They must be taking a vacation another vacation together.

What do you mean, slacking off?
Mr. Jang can't come in, so he sent me here.
I guess you didn't go.
Hello.
What?
Do you remember me?
What?
We've met a few times.
Your style changed a lot.
Yes, right?
We've met a few times, so it'd be odd if I ignored you.
-What? -What?
No, nothing.
Just talking to myself.
Anyway, what brings you here?
Mr. Kim Do-ki's phone has been turned off.
I see.
Mr. Kim. Kim Do-ki.
He's on vacation. Yes, he's away.
It's very natural to turn your phone off while on vacation.
See? Mine is off too…
No, I just talked to someone.
Why is this on?
Are you on leave too?
No, that's not the case.
I'm not on leave.
I'm here at the office,
so I should get to work.

-Hello. -Hello.
-I'm sorry. I'll be traveling a bit far. -No problem.
Whether it's far or near, we take you everywhere.
-We never refuse to take passengers. -That's awesome.
-A pick-up from a cab company is a first. -Right.
It's a bit of an emergency.
-Let's go. -All right.
Come over here.
Why?
We have a new product.

It's 4, 6, 2, 5. Yes.
Did you deposit it?
Yes, we'll contact you when the investigation is over. Thank you.
Also, don't tell anyone any information
about this investigation.

-My gosh. -Hey, he's pretty good.
He's as experienced as he looks.
Hello. Is this Ms. Jung Ji-yoon?
I'm Prosecutor Kim Min-soo from the Seoul Prosecutors' Office.

Hello? Are you Mr. Jang Doo-bong?
TO DISCARD
Yes, I understand.
Why didn't you give him proper training?
LEE JA-SUNG
It says 50,000 won, 110,000 won, and 24,000…
How much is the total?
He got 17 people and made 650,000 won.
It's not even enough
to cover the cost of burner phones!
You don't have to be scared.
It's his fault for not training you right.
Give me your phone.
Here it is.
If I go there now, how many burner phones can I get?
Are you kidding me?
Next week?
Do you expect us to sit around until then?
Bok-ja, please spare me this once.
I'll train him again from page one.
Ma'am.
Do you remember the phone dealer who made a scene?
That stupid jerk
came to eat at the restaurant right now.
I didn't order these…
Are these on the house?
Thanks.
Where did you come from?
Heilongjiang.
I ran a business there.
My father's hometown is Tonghe, Harbin.
I grew up there too.
How do I read this name?
-Hegang. -Tonghe?
I was in Suibin, Hegang.
The beef soup place in front of the station
is particularly good.
Do you know it?
Which one is she talking about?
Everything's under construction, so I can't see a thing.
Wait, you don't know?
I finally realized how young you look.
It has been over 20 years since that soup place was closed down.
So if you remember that place,
you must be at least in your early or mid-40s.
You don't look like you're that age.
I was just shocked to find out how old you were.
My goodness.
What's your name?
Just call me Madam Lim.
That's what everyone calls me.
I'm Mr. Wang.
Nice to meet you.
Sell me the stuff you have.
I can't do that.
What do you mean?
I already made a deal with a person
who made an offer first.
How much is he offering?
I'll give you 10 percent more per phone.
A man doesn't go back on his words
once he makes a decision. I'm sorry.
We're from the same hometown. Just give it to me instead.
What the hell are you talking about?
Why you…
Sit down.
Why bring connections from school and hometown into business?
Oh, right.
You never went to school. Weren't you homeless?
How dare you walk in here?
I didn't want to come in here either.
I have some business with him,
and I need to get some money for my boys' hospital bills.
You should order something too.
-It's on me. -I'm hungry,
-but look at her. I've lost my appetite. -Why you little prick!
I won't repeat myself.
-Get lost when you can. -Don't tell me what to do!
What are you doing?
Hey.
There are three things a man must never show a woman.
Menacing eyes.
Menacing words.
And…
a menacing fist.
But you just showed all three to her
at once.
Gosh. I'm fine.
You son of a bitch.
What the hell is this phone dealer saying?
Look at that squid.
-Boss! -Boss!
Hey, wait. Hold on…
Gosh. You!
I am greatly disappointed in you.
I'm calling off our deal.
That little…
Wait, that hurts.
Let's go. Hurry.
There's no need to remember
everything that petty man said.
Also,
I will…
sell these to you, Madam Lim.
Did you take good care of Cho Do-chul?
Yes, everything went well.
You cannot leave behind any impurities.
-Yes, ma'am. -Three mistakes mean
that's all you can do.
Do you understand?
Yes, ma'am.
What do the VIPs think?
They were all suspicious at first,
but once the news of Chairman Choi's surgery got out,
their secretaries have been contacting us.
Why haven't I thought of this before?
I just needed to become a bridge between supply and demand.
Right? My goodness.
Are you sure it'll be all right with Mr. Jang?
So what if he finds out?
Will he move them all out?
That'd be a funny sight to see. Wouldn't it?
I can
get out of here soon, right?
Of course.
Mr. Kim said it'll be over very soon.
Right
This awful life…
It's all over now.
What's over now?
Oh, my!
We're in trouble! Mr. Park got caught.
What should we do?
Shouldn't we call off our plan to save him first?
It's for the better.
Let's help him quit.
What?
Weren't you listening?
Those jerks have Mr. Park!
-How can we help him quit? -Let's kill him.
What?
Who were you talking to so sweetly?
No, I was just…
I have a habit of talking to myself. So…
I see.
Tell me.
Who are you?
Please spare my life.
You'll end up dead
in one way or another.
If you talk,
I'll kill you without any pain.
If you don't, you'll die a painful death.
Make your choice.
How do you wish to die?
If you do something like that yourself,
it'll make your hands rough.
I brought the phones you wanted,
but I didn't see anyone in the hall.
You and I can talk out there.
It's all right.
I heard everything out there.
You don't have to mind me and…
Wait.
Hey, it's you.
You.
So? Do you know who he is?
I know him very well.
He's a cop.
A cop?
-The police? -You're a cop?
You jerk!
Hello?
Mr. Choi. Did you hear about Mr. Park?
-Yes, I did. -Then why aren't you here? Where are you?
I'm fishing.
Fishing?
-This is an emergency. -I can't go there.
I didn't come here alone. I'm with someone.
You should've lost her. Why did you bring her here?
What now?
Mr. Park will die soon.
Please tell Jin-eon that I'm sorry.
-This is driving me insane. -Bye.
What?
Isn't the weather nice?
BROTHERS
You're right.
It's a great day to die.
If it's all right,
may I have a sip of water?
I'll die when I have to,
but just let me have a sip of water.
I'll shove you deep into the water.
So you can
get your own drink of water.
Let's get started.
Wait, be easy on me.
-Go easy on me. -Don't worry.
Don't worry.
-Wait. -Get in there.
Hey, you. I'm a police officer!
-Hey! -Get in.
When I ran a business back home,
my bank accounts
were suddenly emptied out without a warning.
All of my boys
got arrested on that day.
I was the only one who managed to escape.
I found out later…
that it was…
all his doing.
Stop it, jerks.
-Get in here. -I'm sorry!
-Get in.
-I'm sorry! -Get in there. Close it.
-I'm sorry! -Okay.
Cops these days
-are very quick -It's okay.
and persistent.
Don't worry, okay?
Ma'am, we're all ready to go.
It's not good
to see something so awful with such beautiful eyes.
Goodness.
This is wrong.
This is so wrong.
-This is just wrong. -Great work, Mr. Park.
There was too much sea fog, so it took too long to find you.
Go-eun.
All I did was ask for a sip of water.
But he pushed me into the ocean.
They didn't give you water? Those mean jerks!
-Goodness. -I just wanted…
I'm sorry.
I'm an idiot for trusting him.
Goodness, throw up here.
Right here.
Goodness.
All done.
This is as far I'll go.

Fruit Fly is calling Boss right now.
Hello? Bok-ja.
It's me. Fruit Fly.
I lost everything after changing my phone.
-Can you send me the account number? -You stupid idiot.
Memorize the important stuff!
Are you a moron?
I know I memorized it before.
Okay, I got the account number.
Now I just need to find out the PIN, and my mission's complete.
Mr. Kim, did you hear that?
Why aren't you answering me?
Right, are you on a date right now?
Gosh, have a lovely date.
Madam Lim, this is yours.
It was a pretty big one, so the shell was rather tough.
Stop acting so cutesy in front of others.
I don't trust you, Mr. Wang.
I don't trust you either.
That's also how
I managed to survive to this day.
There's no need for you to trust me either.
Just
eat this snow crab for me.
The shell was tough,
so it was hard to peel.
Enjoy it.
Hello. Are you not coming in today, ma'am?
I'm somewhere far away.
Where are you?
I came to where Kim Do-ki is vacationing, but I don't see him.
Prosecutor Kang.
I totally trust you,
but I must say this.
You once told me
when a prosecutor investigates someone as a culprit without evidence,
they will look guilty. That's why confirmation bias is dangerous.
I'm sorry. I was out of line.
No. You're right.
But at the moment, I'm…
I'll call you later.
Okay, take it easy.
Am I possessed or something?
I guess they took time off together again.
They take time off together?

Choi Jong-sook, Cho Jong-geun, and Park Joo-chan

-Run? -We'll tell Madam Lim

What are you talking about?
We just need to find out
the PIN for the bank account, right?
Yes.
But that's the hard part.
Let's end this tomorrow.
I like your new hairstyle. I'm glad you changed it.
You like it?
Is it nice?
Excuse me. May I ask you a question?
Didn't a man just walk in here?
There are many men who come
into a Chinese restaurant.
Then have you seen this man by any chance?
I don't think so.
Thank you for your help.
Hello, Mr. Wang.

Mr. Cho? Why?

To be honest,
I forgot to give it to you earlier.
Oh, right.
I guess I can't call it a surprise gift.
It's a forgotten gift.

Could you watch my bag?
Hello.

Can I have your ID and bankbook?
I have to go pay my fare. Wait here for a minute.

If they do that,
I'll be upset.
I have to say,
it feels nice having you see me off.
Here's the forgotten gift.
There's a video on it.

Good work, everyone.
Ending service.
EPILOGUE
How have you been, ma'am?
My gosh.
Thank you for your help.
No problem at all.
Here.
It's the million won they took from you.
You said it was for your granddaughter's tuition.
Thank you.
Please don't mention it. It's nothing.
My gosh, thank you so much.
-Thank you. -Stay healthy, ma'am.
Goodness.
It's a search warrant for Jang Sung-chul of Bluebird Foundation.

The suspect is one of your boys.
We're not involved. Don't worry.
Stay in your lane.
I need to find out what they're up to.
