(Episode 21)
What are you doing here, sir?
I should ask you the same thing.
Chief Prosecutor Yoon sent me.
I got a call that Soo Ji showed up.
I didn't hear that.
Where did you hear such nonsense?
I wonder.
I searched the whole area and couldn't find her.
Your car is the only vehicle that I didn't search.
So what? You want to search it?
She wouldn't dare hide in my car unless she were crazy.
You never know. She took you hostage last time, didn't she?
She could be hiding in the back, waiting to harm you.
She isn't here.
Then you wouldn't mind if I have a look.

Hello?
Where are you?
I received a report, and I am searching the area.
What kind of report? I didn't hear anything about it.
What kind of report?
What do you think? Someone reported that Jo Soo Ji is in this area.
Nam Byung Jae.
Why do you keep doing this?
Whether it's Jo Soo Ji or not,
you should report to me, your boss, first.
I won't go easy on you this time. Come back here.
Yes, Ms. Lee.
She isn't there. It's nothing.
Now that you've checked, can I go now?
How can you suspect me?
As you expected, Prosecutor Jang was there.
He asked the detectives on stakeout about Jo Soo Ji's mother.
That's what I told him to do.
What about Jo Soo Ji?
She wasn't there.
So he only did what I told him to do?
There was something strange.
When I met him, he was coming out from Jo Soo Ji's house.
He suddenly left after talking with the detectives,
but I could not confirm where he had been in between.
How about CCTV recordings?
There weren't any there.
I need to know what kind of man Jang Do Han is.
Look into everything about him.
When was it?
When was what?
When did you change your name and approach Yoon Seung Ro?
I don't remember.
Has it been that long?
What else do you know about him?
I know every one of his weak spots that I can take advantage of.
How about Yoon Si Wan?
Him too.
Did you know that he could do such a terrible thing?
I could only guess.
Strange things did happen around him.
Were there any cases like Yu Na's?
Some children got hurt.
You should have stopped him.
You should have at least had Kyung Soo and Bo Mi watch him.
Right.
Even you couldn't have seen that coming.
While you were watching him everyday,
did you ever,
even for a moment,
think about quitting?
Never.
Me neither.
Even when I see how sick my mom is because of me,
I can't quit.
Even if everyone forgets about her,
I can't.
Then it will be so sad...
for Yu Na.
Thanks to you today,
I could meet my mom, hold her hands,
and hug her.
Thank you.
How's your mom?
Is she doing all right?
She's sick because she's worried about me.
- Have you been waiting for me? - Yes.
Kyung Soo was waiting too, but he just fell asleep.
We've been watching the CCTV just in case,
and it seems like the leader is not so bad after all.
I can't...
forgive Jang Do Han yet.
I don't think I will ever be able to.
But I can't hate him either.
Are you trying to cause a scene at the church again like last time?
You should stop coming here.
I could only think of this place...
on a day like this.
Why?
Is something wrong?
Do Han.
What do I do now?
What have I done?
I don't understand. You have to explain in detail.
I...
I left Yu Na to die.
There are many reasons why people cry,
but it seems like it hurts just the same for everyone.
I could know everything although he didn't say it...
and although he didn't cry.
What...
are you talking about?
I was...
watching Si Wan.
I saw him taking her into that building.
But you didn't know he was going to kill her.
Si Wan has been...
wandering around Yu Na for a few days before that day.
At that time,
I didn't know what it meant.
But when he took her into that building...
which has no security cameras, without any other guardians, I knew.
I knew what would happen next.
I could know how agonizing it must've been...
to smile bitterly in front of Seung Ro until this day.
I could know clearly.
I could've saved her.
I could've saved her, but...
I hesitated.
If something happened,
that would've given me the chance to get closer to Yoon Seung Ro.
I know how he feels,
so I can't hate him.
I ran after him after a while,
but I was too late.
While I was hesitating,
she died.
(The Guardian)
It's as Do Han said.
Reporters are here for a coverage.
It would've been bad if it wasn't for him.
They never cover what they should. Why are they standing there?
What will your mom do?
I'm sure reporters will pester her for a while.
Jo Soo Ji's mom is currently...
- Goodness. - Get out of here.
Leave. What are you doing in front of my shop?
That's my mom.
She scared off all the reporters.
She looks way too healthy for them to report that she's sick.
Then...
Seung Ro's plan to trap us by using the media is...
all done and over with, right?
Should we try his plan too?
- What do you mean? - I mean Detective Nam.
Let's trap him with fake news.
Hey.
It's been such a long time.
How's the detective life treating you?
I'm barely making a living.
Here it is. It's what you asked for last night.
(Family Relation Certificate)
Is this it?
(A Man in His 40s Strangles His Girlfriend to Death)
(The Prosecution Demands Six Years for Lee Shin Hyuk, the Alleged Spy)
Yes.
- See you. - Let's grab some food later.
- Let's go and eat. - You guys can go.
- We'll get going then. - Sure.
(Exclusive: A Missing Housewife Returns Home After 10 Years)
We got him.
He's reading the news article we made up.
He clicked on the news. Something must be up.
He could just be curious, so let's give him some time.
(Reporter Ji Seung Hyun of Ilseong Newspaper)
Yes, is this Ilseong Newspaper?
I'm a producer from MBS Network.
May I speak with reporter Ji Seung Hyun?
Yes, give me a moment.
Yes, this is Ji Seung Hyun. How can I help you?
Hello, I'm calling because I read your article...
titled "A Missing Housewife Returns Home After 10 Years".
I'd like to interview the housewife in the article.
May I have her number?
I apologize, but I can't do that for you.
She does not wish to be identified to the public.
Could you at least ask her if she's willing to do an interview?
She decided to do interviews exclusively with us. I'm sorry.
Yes, I understand.
He called the newspaper pretending to be a TV producer.
That means he definitely knows something about my mom, right?
Yes. I think so.
Then I'll get him right away.
What will you do after that?
I'll make him confess no matter what I do.
Are you suggesting we threaten and torture him too?
- I'm not saying that. - Kyung Soo.
Let's sway him more so that he'll lead us to your mom.
Both of you, stop.
If Kyung Soo's mom was still alive,
why would he sit around after he saw that she escaped?
He would've ran to the place of her hiding already.
What are you talking about?
You figured it out already, didn't you?
How long will you keep playing along with Kyung Soo?
What on earth are you saying?
Your mom was...
murdered.
No.
How can you be...
so cold?
No.
She's alive.
If you cannot accept the truth as it is,
it'll only hurt you.
Sure.
You're a dreadful person who never smiles or cries,
so it might be easy for you to say.
But not for me.
I won't believe this until I see her with my own eyes.
Kyung Soo.
Bo Mi is right.
Why are you saying that too, Soo Ji?
(Her family is looking for her desperately.)
Mom.
Happy birthday.
This is so pretty.
My son, you have a great taste.
Thank you.
Mom, you should put on that scarf and go out once in a while.
Don't just stay home all the time.
Do you know what people say because you're always home?
They think you have depression.
What kind of an idiot would say something like that?
People say that because you stay home all the time.
Don't just stay indoors.
You should go out and meet your friends.
I should do that.
All right! My tests are over.
Hey, let's go to an internet cafe.
He can't go because of his mom.
Is she still sick in her head?
Hey, don't put it like that.
What? I heard she has depression.
Isn't that a mental illness?
Hey, you two. That was a long time ago.
My mom's okay now. Let's go to that internet cafe. Go.
- Let's go. - What?
Hey, hey.
Let's go to that new one.
- Where is it? - Over there.
Hey, if we're going to go, let's go to that new one.
- Okay, let's go. - Okay.
The loser today can buy instant noodles.
Okay, then. Let's bet some soft drinks too.
- Okay, do it. - Bet everything.
- Let's bet everything. - Deal.
- I will beat you. - As if you could.
(Her family is looking for her desperately.)
I looked into Prosecutor Jang.
There's nothing much on him,
but his mom's boyfriend killed her when he was a teenager.
The murderer...
happens to be someone we know.
Who is it?
Lee Shin Hyuk. Don't you remember?
- The spy case. - Right.
- He killed someone? - Yes.
Do Han's the son of the murder victim?
Not Lee Shin Hyuk?
That's right.
It would all make sense if he were Lee's son.
I really don't get him.
I think we have another problem.
I think someone's using the 2007 case.
An article's on the internet.
What article do you mean?
It's right on the main page.
Looks like someone is messing with us.
Who do you think knows what happened then?
Well, I think that's the case too, but...
I'll look into it more, sir.
(Restricted number)
(Recordings)
The others went to eat.
Why are you here alone?
I was just leaving.
I'm with the Joint Investigation HQ.
I think someone broke into the office.
Show me the security footage from 1:15pm today.
(Recording complete)
I know why Detective Nam cherishes his phone so much.
Each time he talked to Yoon Seung Ro,
he recorded the conversation.
He knows he can be abandoned at any time.
We also confirmed that he's Viper.
Now we just have to get him.
If he'll let us.
The next time they talk,
the chief prosecutor must say the crucial line.
If he mentions instigating murder,
that will be all the proof we need.
Don't get caught.
- Are these all the papers? - Yes.
Did you read about a missing woman returning after 10 years?
Did something like that happen?
This afternoon,
the abductor of the housewife who went missing in 2007...
posted a video about a police officer...
- Is that live? - Yes.
The police are investigating.
The police did it.
Who's behind this?
It said the police did it.
- Really? - Yes.
The police did it.
This time, it's for real.
He uploaded a video to threaten me.
If he really had proof, he'd have sent it to the police.
Why upload a video instead?
I think I know who's behind this.
There's a way to find out, so calm down...
and do as I say.
Detective Nam.
I need you to go somewhere.
(Chae Hye Sun Revokes Plea to Reopen Jo Soo Ji's Daughter's Case)
What's going on? I gave you the evidence.
Why did Ms. Chae change her tune?
I'm glad you're here. I was about to call you.
Ms. Chae wants to see you.
This wasn't our deal.
You said you'd help me take down the chief prosecutor.
I wasn't able to tell you in advance.
I apologize.
But...
I still believe that Mr. Yoon should not become Attorney General.
Why did you tell the press there's no evidence?
A politician's job is very different...
from a prosecutor's.
A prosecutor can say...
someone is either guilty or not guilty.
Politicians...
who were once at each other's throats...
compromise and negotiate in the end.
Are you saying you negotiated with the chief prosecutor?
What you gave us wasn't as crucial as you thought.
That's why I asked you to control the media...
so an in-depth investigation can take place.
We have a witness who can do better.
Senior Prosecutor Oh joined our side.
Oh Kwang Ho?
The chief prosecutor doesn't know.
Did you hand over the blackbox footage...
thinking Mr. Oh can help you?
We had to. He used the violation of election law against us.
It's the only way to ensure Ms. Chae attends the hearing.
Is she the only available member of congress?
You could've handed it over to someone else in your party.
You wanted to use Senior Prosecutor Oh...
to become the star of the hearing.
Watch your tongue.
I did the best I could...
to prevent the chief prosecutor from becoming the attorney general.
Can you say that to the mother who lost a child...
The mother who became a fugitive...
because of Yoon Seung Ro?
You negotiated? You did your best?
You're a hypocrite.
- Kim Eun Joong. - Leave him.
I'm glad there still are passionate prosecutors like him.
Yes?
Detective Nam's on the move.
He's headed south. Do you know why?
Where are you?
Gongju, Chungcheong Province.
Hello?
That's...
where my dad is.
A strange man passed him some documents earlier today.
Yoon Seung Ro could have put him up to something.
I'll head there right now.
You'll be late.
I'll do what I can to stop him.
(Chief Prosecutor)
The line is busy.
(Ministry of Justice Hospital)
Sit.
I started instead of waiting for you.
Care for a drink?
I'm good.
I don't enjoy drinking.
But something's been bothering me these days.
You lied to me.
Didn't you tell me your father was alive?
I did a little digging because I was interested in you.
And I found out that wasn't true.
To be honest, he died when I was young.
I know it's nothing wrong,
but I wanted to give the impression that I was brought up well.
I made a mistake.
It's all right.
Just be honest with me from now on.
It won't happen again.
All right.

By the way, I heard you lost your mother from an accident.
You would have gone through so much trouble.
And it wasn't just an accident.
It was a murder case.
- Yes. - Well.
It's great to see that you were brought up so well...
despite what had happened.
By the way,
the murderer is someone I know.
You were young back then, so you won't know him very well.
His name is Lee Shin Hyuk.
He was a vicious spy.
(Episode 22 will be broadcast soon.)
