But he had told us before,

That he should assist you.

- I don't understand that.

- No idea why he said that.

A detective should capture

any violent criminals.

Track down Yes, others do the rest.

It went all so fast, I had no choice.

Well, we start from scratch again.

- Does it have to be that way?

- One last time.

- On the phone, his voice sounded sluggish.

- I thought he was on drugs.

He's very dangerous when he is high.

So I wanted to get him quickly

before something would happen.

Where am I?

- You killed a cop?

- You killed a cop?

- You filthy piece of sh*t!

- Stop it, Han!

Listen up!

Crap!

- Hello, this is Han, we have an emergency.

- An officer is injured.

Send an ambulance quick.

You're under arrest for the

murder of a police officer.

You have the right to remain silent

and the right to an attorney.

How could it happen that you three

could not overpower the guy?

But it's not my fault that

the fence is broken away.

- How far were you away?

- Four to five meters?

- Junkie has pushed him very hard.

- Has no name, idiot junkie?

- Who are you calling an idiot?

- You're supposed to be quiet.

Next!

Detective Han, we're done, you can go.

Thank you very much.

- What are you staring?

- Do I look so good? - Yes.

You're announcing to the police?

- Why?

- Because of me is He after.

- Ah, yes? Why are you really quitting?

- Is no longer my thing, that's all.

What did you run with this junkie?

Are you telling me? -Shut up, let us eat.

Has something to do with Park?

Let us be open to each other.

Do you want me to say: "I lied,

I am his killer"? Yes?

That's not what I meant.

Look me in the eyes, Sun-mo.

- I am sorry.

- What exactly?

Come on, what are you sorry?

Say it!

- I think I misunderstood.

- Yes, you can say that aloud!

I could not help it, okay?

Was it my fault? Do you think that?

- It's been yours?

- No!

Let's eat.

It is not easy to explain everything.

But if I would hesitate,

I would get in trouble.

Next week, I should begin

my work at the Mayor.

I will make a new start.

I'm still breathing.

Here're a few TV shows,

They have downloaded for you.

Should I call my sister?

- Park has sent back money.

- How much?

$20,000. And 5,000 extra.

Is it hard for you to accept the money?

No. I paid 800 as a sympathy gift.

Good. Hwang's wife is so sorry for me.

You will feel better at the same time.

Yes, I'm now in the hospital.

- Is good.

- I told you everything!

- It is about something else.

- To what for? What do you want?

I ask the questions.

PUBLIC PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE

Turn that off!

- The regulations require this.

- Do not film!

We have to!

Do you know the male witness,

who should testify against the Mayor?

Whom?

He did not appear in court and

disappeared from the ground.

And why should I know the man?

Because you've kidnapped him

and forced him to call us.

This is a shameful slander,

A lie, nothing more.

According to the reports, that

you have met him four times.

You have drank together,

went to a motel and f***ed girls.

Witness statements confirm

that he has stated that,

a detective from

West Annam area.

I've never seen the man.

His body, has been found in Malate,

On the Philippines. This morning.

- In fact?

- I'm too late.

- Enter.

- You show me.

Excuse me.

Kim cha-in District Attorney of Gyeonggi.

My name is Kim cha-in.

- Did you show him the file?

- Yes.

- And the photo of the airport car park?

- This is the highlight.

- The witness is led by junkie.

- Her informant.

That night, you have him

beaten and arrested.

Do you remember?

Okay, this is the lunatic who

has killed our Sergeant.

I wanted to skin the bastard love alive.

They are known to have a sly old,

dog behind the ears. -Well played.

Why to threaten an honest,

decent police officers,

- and without any evidence...

- you have said that.

They want to now officially

work for the Mayor?

I don't know it yet. Someone has

suggested it to me, maybe.

Stop lying.

According to police records,

you have met 22 times with the Mayor.

Is this your notice?

The processing is delayed because of the

Hwang-case. I can handle this then. What?

I can handle this for you,

but it's not hard to understand.

That is why they usually take care of

themselves, their higher animals, right?

I stand higher than the higher animals.

Coffee, please. -Man, what the f***.

Don't goggle me!

Do not gloat, stupid wanker!

- You piece of sh*t!

- You shall not staring, stop gaping.

- I show it to you, punks, get off me!

- Your a**hole!

So, are we now two things, we note clear?

Let him go.

First of all, you have no time,

your life ends on November 20.

Secondly, let him go, before that happens,

the recorded confession,

have you brought us

that Park has arranged the

kidnapping of the witness.

It put on, he should come up.

- Take it easy, a**hole.

- You committed all these crimes,

To do a favor to park,

Finally admit it, we know it.

- Park will get away, you by no means.

- And do you know why?

Because you've done all

the dirty work alone.

If we find you, you end up for

at least 30 years in jail.

And find I'm good.

Why should we make our country that the

American Army has left,

- fall apart and not use?

- A citizen wrote on the city's website:

"Annam exploration and development will be

blocked by the Committee on development."

- He got 500 positive responses.

- Just a minute!

What a relief that the Committee

is dissolved this month.

Mr. Mayor!

Why did you call us,

If only you can speak here?

- The Mayor has the floor.

- Wait for your turn.

Listen, at the beginning we agreed,

through a business plan,

But who is suddenly vehement

on the other hand? Who is it?

After eight years we have worked

out this development plan,

- who flips it in a single day, who?

- Deputy chairman!

- May I ask a question too?

- Please!

Be honest with us, were

this eight years not,.

A certain position of power to get?

- I urge a withdrawal of this statement!

- Let that be!

If we leave this space,

This is wasted time,

and the bread tastes like sh*t.

What about you?

I do not understand why you

have a hard-working Mayor

want to rid so rough?

Mr Mayor, I am surprised,

- How rigorous you are.

So you want at any cost

The new development plan!

We should get the American army

to return.

- Do not listen to these idiots!

- That idiot?

- Did you really say that?

- Freestyle!

At an official meeting, you should

speak with decency and respect.

Crap!

As you roar,

I got so frightened,

Since I have actually peed in my pants.

- Let us not kidding.

- Something I never experienced.

- Do not you want the job?

- You know exactly how much I want him.

I quit immediately, but they say

I can't leave before the Hwang

case has been cleared up.

- I said I'm staying as long as... and then announce.

- Pst!

What is really going on?

That's it! I think it also

sucks, this delay.

Even I think you're good, in the
