Jongbo.

Jongbo.

Yes. Yes.

Let's eat.

Crazy bastards.

Why put cigarette butts in here?

You really like him, don't you?

Who?

Jae-cheol.

Are you crazy?

That loser?

I know you like him.

Look! I can live with a player...

But never with a beggar.

Sure?

I won't rot my life away

sitting in this damn place.

What's wrong with this place?

I rather like it.

The noodles are ready.

It looks great.

Wait. Let's say grace first.

Lord!

The noodles are getting soggy.

Amen. Now, eat.

Amen.

So eat.

Hey, Jongbo.

Yes.

What's that on my desk?

It's a warning letter

from the tax office.

They said something about

property seizure.

Some bank people came by too.

About putting stuff up for auction.

Don't worry. We can make

the money somehow, can't we?

Where did all the money go?

It was easy to make money

when I was into extortion.

You're all in this mess

because you followed me.

Stop eating and make some coffee.

I'm still eating.

You've had enough.

Go make the coffee!

Wait I'm come.

Aren't you buying a lotto ticket?

Is today Saturday?

Yes.

Jangmi!

If your earlobes were thicker...

You'd already been married.

But the way your lips are shaped

will bring you a fortune.

Really?

Go and buy a ticket

before the noodles go soggy.

So quick.

Make sure you get these numbers...

I'm not an idiot. I remember.

I've done this so many times.

bye... bye

and see you on

the next same time on Saturday...

Sit down.

Jae-cheol.

Jangmi didn't just take off

with $16 million

she took our whole lives.

I'll find her.

Find her?

How?

You're going to find a girl on the lam

with a fake ID card?

Do you even know her real name?

What's going on here?

Don't move! Don't move!

Don't move!

Who the hell are you?

You people were gambling here!

We know everything.

Gambling?

Do you know how little I get

for sewing on each eye?

You're just making me feel worse.

Sit.

And keep your heads down.

I think we've screwed up.

Move out.

Yes.

Move. Move out.

Oh, that was close!

How come you slapped me

so hard, bastard?

What, should I do it like this?

We're professionals, aren't we?

See you later.

Yeah. Okay, so now you know

that a crackdown is coming.

Yes, hide the girls.

Bye.

How's business these days?

Oh, hello.

Hello.

Mr. Shin, what's up?

Right now?

Got a stiff neck?

When you greet your elders,

shouldn't you bow?

Rude bastard.

You're beyond rehabilitation.

Hello, Inspector Na Chung-su.

I'll give you a good reward.

Good reward?

Can't we be more specific?

You're too vague.

How much do you want?

How much do you think I make?

After 10 years as a cop,

barely enough to live on.

$3 million

3 million?

But there's one condition.

Take Jae-cheol with you.

3 million?

She didn't leave a single clue.

Let's go.

Let's see what she listens to.

I have to find Jangmi

before she goes too far.

You've dispatched officers to

the airport and harbor, right?

You said she'd worked in Garibong

before. Where in Garibong?

Hey, Jae-cheol.

Why the long face?

Don't you want to catch her?

And what's more.

You're so damn rude to me

all the time.

You're still upset about the past?

Listen, you!

The law comes from smartasses.

So you can't just interpret it

any way you want.

Understand?

Say that again! The law what?

I'm going to kill you, you sh*t!

I'm a sh*t, am I?

You said I only had to serve 3 months.

I rotted there for 4 years!

Shut up, d*ckhead!

That request was for

Jang Ggeut-sun in Garibong...

Jang Ggeut-sun.

That's her name.

Detective Park? It's me.

Can you check something?

Jae-cheol,

just shut up and follow me.

You don't have to think,

just move fast.

Whatever you do,

don't get any funny ideas.

Yes, Inspector Park.

Wait a moment.

Okay, Jang Ggeut-sun.

25 years old?

She's old.

Address?

Jeonnam province, Goheung district.

Goheung?

Yeah. Mapa Island?

What? Mapa Island?

Well, a local ferry goes there

just once a week.

There was one today.

So you have to wait until next week.

Is there no other way?

Oh. You're one of us.

Why do you want to go

to Mapa Island?

I see.

Wait a moment, please.

I won't be long.

Mr. Kim! I have a detective

from Seoul.

The fish will get full today.

Sh*t.

How long have we been here?

Is it far to Mapa?

Mapa? That's over there.

We came the wrong way.

Oh, sh*t!

Turn! Turn!

Turn around and go back!

Turn! Turn!

Oh, sh*t!

Hey! We're at Mapa Island.

Be careful.

Your stomachs must be empty.

Eat something.

You're out it.

Wait it!

Does anyone actually live here?

That a**hole just dropped us off

in the middle of nowhere.

This is really great.

Where are we going to find people?

No cell phone reception, either.

Did you see that?

What?

You saw it, right.

What?

A woman in white with long hair

gliding past.

Where are you going?

To call my boss. Why?

Come back quickly.

I know it's you, Jae-cheol.

Don't mess with me, you jerk.

I'm not scared at all.

Don't do that.

Jae-cheol.

They must have been frightened.

Are they going to be okay?

Don't push me.

At least they didn't die.

You're actually

quite scary at nighttime.

Don't look at me like that.

When was the last time we saw

any young, single men?

How do you know whether

they're single or not?

It's as clear as

telling sh*t from Shinola.

Feel this tight butt.

Hey, you.

But... What did they come this far for?

Look at their fishing gear.

They came to go fishing.

What a d*ckhead!

Why do you need fancy threads?

I bet he wears that even when

he's screwing.

Oh, sh*t!

What's so funny?

Who else lives here?

We're it.

Young folks don't like living on an island.

They all left to the mainland.

That's right.

Listen!

These hunks are

the first visitors in a long time.

Everyone should be nice to them.

Hang on, where can they stay?

Stick them in the men's room.

Sh*t!

Chairwoman!

They can stay at my place.

My room is quite big.

All together in your room?

What?

Hang on... Mrs. Yeosu!

Isn't Ggeut-sun's room empty?

Yes, it is.

Then they can stay there.

Let's do that, shall we?

Okay?

Sure.

Good night.

Thank you for the meal.

What's this?

Good night.

This is my home.

This is your room.

That's the toilet.

You can piss...

Anywhere is okay.

What's going on here?

Oh, this is just great!

What is this?

Don't you know that these peppers

can rot overnight from the dew?

Clear them up quickly

and clean Ggeut-sun's room.

Goodness me!
