Thanks.

I'm still learning in my job.

How long do you think

my daughter can last like this?

Even if we try our best

Two years the most.

I see.

Hi baby, you're up!

This is for you.

I bought this cuz

you used to like it.

I'll get you something else

next time.

HAN Jong-shik!

I'll never forgive you.

When you come home

Your wife and your daughter

will already be heaven.

If you even touch them

I'll kill you, dumbass!

You'd never hurt us, right?

I delivered pizza to that house

and rot in jail for 7 years!

What did I do wrong?

What the hell did I do wrong?

What's up? Sleep more.

I'll wake you up

when we get there.

TWO YEARS LATER:

What's up, man?

Gave up on magic?

This is magic, too.

I want my daughter to live

in a fungus-free house.

How did your parole go?

I'm out in 10 days!

When you get out make

sure to visit your mother.

But before I do

there's something I have to do.

I gotta find f***ing HAN

and send him to hell.

Smarten up.

You wanna end up here again?

You know what I pray for

before I sleep every night?

I pray that he doesn't die

until I get out of here.

I would kill whoever that

gets their hands

on him before I do,

Just forget it.

F*** you.

You Jesus or something?

Honey?

What are you doing here?

I'm back from school.

Where's your bag?

- I lost it.

- Where?

At school.

MURDERER:

- What the hell?

- Police, you son of a b*tch!

You motherf***er!

Long time no see!

Didn't I tell you

not to mess with money?

- I wasn't!

- You should listen!

Lt's been awhile.

Honey, When I'm out of here

I'll show you the most

fabulous magic show

On the biggest stage

in the world.

Aren't you...

Even curious

how Ye-seul and I are...

Holding up?

Give it back! Lt's my dad's!

I said it's my dad's!

Pass it here!

Hey!

Give it back!

I said it's my dad's!

Are you tired?

Wanna go home?

Come on baby. Let's go.

Here you go, princess!

Take it to the police station.

Detective HAN!

Isn't this where

CHO Dong-chul died?

Is it?

Detective HAN!

There's a call for you.

Something happened to

Min-ji at the hospital.

What the hell are you doing?

Wrap it up!

What bloody temper.

Ye-seul! Ye-seul!

Ye-seul! Open your eyes!

Ye-seul!

Baby, It's mommy!

Ye-seul! Ye-seul!

You can't come in.

Ye-seul!

What happened?

She had a seizure.

We massaged her heart

and gave her sedative.

She'll feel better

when she awakes.

Can't you just stay

by your daughter?

Hello?

Detective HAN? This is

internal investigation office.

Do you admit the error

in investigation?

At the time it seemed certain

that NAH was the suspect.

Look!

Innocent civilian has served

two years in jail!

Innocent civilians were killed

in military riots. Big deal!

I heard your child's sick.

And that her illness

is costing a lot...

Can I hep you?

They proved that

you're not the murderer.

There are few things to do

But you'll be out soon.

Does my wife...

Does my wife know this?

I'm very sorry.

Where the hell is her father?

Is her father still not here?

I have another appointment.

I have to go.

Really?

Then I'll look after her.

Oh yeah?

Let's do the blood

sedimentation test first.

Without her father's consent?

Damn it.

What the f*** would they know

about investigating?

Jong-shik,

Think you're on holidays and

lay low for a few months.

Detective KIM

What's this?

NAH Sang-man case.

It's obvious what we'll get

even with reinvestigation.

Just rough it up as unsolved

HAN, my promotion will

never happen if you're out.

I'm sorry, detective HAN.

I'll make sure

to catch the suspect

so all your hard work

doesn't go to waste.

There's something I didn't tell

you about NAH Sang-man's case.

The victim of the case, CHO,

had money issues

with LEE Jong-ho,

Gyelim Ship owner's son.

Right after the murder

Lee Jong-ho ran off to America.

Something smells fishy here.

Enough yapping. Get going.

I'm gonna get the culprit

this time.

Since you were gone,

Your family's been having

a hard time,

Your wife had been

trying to make ends meet

But after your daughter died

she couldn't get over the shock

And attempted to commit suicide.

DADDY, I MADE A WINDOW.

How are her vitals?

They are less stable

than yesterday.

Her organs are slowly

losing their function.

Umm...

I know this must be

tough for you

but your wife is in a coma

and medically considered dead.

- So...

- What?

Dead?

Listen carefully.

My wife's not dead yet.

I'll save her no matter what.

No matter what!

- Just half a glass!

- Come on, drink up.

I still have a lot of

investigating to do.

That can wait.

Do you remember

the Mapo serial murder case

When you were working

in Seoul?

Of course.

That was in 1989

when I was in high school.

I decided to become

a detective then

cuz I saw you on TV

and you blew me away.

Don't bring that up.

It's embarrassing.

You were so cool back then.

- Enough already. Drink up!

- Okay.

I'm sorry.

By the time my brain

tells my hands to stop pouring

the cup's already overflowing.

It's been like this

since I hurt my head.

You've worked so hard

your whole life.

You should retire and

take time for yourself.

I gotta hang in at least until

my kid's out of high school.

Yeah, but you should also

think about your own health.

But I can't let this go.

You still carry that around?

Of course.

This is my number one treasure.

Where are you gonna

start digging?

I'll start with

the ship owner's son.

I've already investigated him

but there's not much there.

But I'm certain this time.

There are dozens of people who

had money issues with CHO.

Don't waste your time.

You should just leave

the case like chief said

and help out with paper

in the office.

I'm just saying,

be more tactful!

Paying for me?

That's something new!

Let's go for another drink.

It's too late.

I really have to go investigate.

Come on.

I know a great place.

HAN! I'm not useless yet.

I'll catch the bastard and

get confession out of him.

So don't you worry.

- Come back to me!

- Let's go for one more drink!

- Detective KIM!

- What?

Oh, yes!

- Sorry!

- You left it here again.

Yeah, yeah, Thanks.

- Good-bye.

- Yup, bye!

Come back to me!

Long time no see.

I heard you were out.

No hard feelings.

It's all in the past, right?

What's that?

Gonna take your revenge?

I thought you're getting

compensation money.

Didn't you know?

I guess not.

Fine. I'll tell them to deposit

the money right away.

It's not a bad business

making that much money

serving just two years

in jail, isn't it?

You f***ing crazy?

God damn it!

Let go, you piece of sh*t!

Lt's all in the past.

Never come across me again.

I'm not in good mood these days.

My daughter...

...is dead.

You killed...

my daughter.

NAH SANG-MAN'S WIFE

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE

DAUGHTER:
DECEASED

Ms. JANG

- Hello?

- It's me, JANG Soo-kyoung.

We've found a matching heart

for Min-ji.

Hello?

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Tiger Balm works best

for bruises.
