[Winter, 2011]

Come on, I told you to order something
expensive. Get some boiled pork too.

You're a college student.
How much money could you have?

It's fine. This is enough.

I work part-time.

I have more money than you.

How? You're just
a civil service exam student.

My mom.

She's been saving up more than I realized.

Is studying for the police exam going okay?

I guess it's just right for me.

It really sticks in my head.

Just wait and see.

I'll be wearing a badge within two years,
and I'll catch that punk myself.

And then what, after you catch him?

After that?

Then I'll catch the next punk.

Jeez, forget it, you punk.

You talked me into being a reporter,
and now you're betraying me.

The more I think about it,
the more pissed off I get.

Hey, if we're all digging,
who's going to catch the fish?

You just keep digging.

I'll catch the fish.

You do your job, and I'll do mine.

Bang, bang!

Oh, please.

Don't get beaten to a pulp
by some criminal later.

- Ma'am, could you turn up the TV?
- Sure.

[Police Focused on Kingfisher Investigation]
The sh**ting incidents

by the serial k*ller known as Kingfisher
have risen to nine.

Police have concluded that
last week's sh**ting in Cheongsin-dong

[Kingfisher Shootings Rise to 9]
was also the work of the same suspect.

[Cheongsin-dong Case Also Same Culprit]
They are intensifying their investigation.

Meanwhile, the number of members
in an online Kingfisher fan club

- is approaching 300,000...
- A fan club?

Have they all lost their darn minds?

Why are they cheering for that lunatic?

Maybe they get
some kind of catharsis from it.

He picks out the worst criminals
and kills them.

Catharsis, my foot.

Hey, isn't k*lling a m*rder*r still m*rder?

Even if he only kills criminals for now,

who's to say he won't k*ll
an innocent person someday?

If, by chance, I mean,
seriously, what if...

just hypothetically,
Kingfisher k*lled that punk...

That punk? Who...

Do you really think
I'd feel happy or thankful?

I mean, he'd be taking revenge
for you, or something like that.

Darn it. Hey!

If another m*rder*r kills
my parents' m*rder*r, is that revenge?

If anyone's going to take revenge,
it should be me.

What right does Kingfisher have?

My revenge is

to catch him and put him
in prison for the rest of his life.

To me, they're both the
same murdering punk.

Once I catch that punk,

I'll catch Kingfisher next, no matter what.

Just wait and see.

Alright.

Oh, my.

Oh, my, I'm so sorry.

Ma'am, one plate of boiled pork, please.

To cover the dry cleaning.

Keep your strength up, future detective.

Thirty thousand won,
including the boiled pork? Alright.

What's with her?

[Episode 10]

[Client Suitability Assessment,
One-Month Post-Release Observation]

[Multiple Risk Indicators,
High Reoffending Risk]

Why? Because of the
victim's son who's a cop?

I thought he looked
familiar. Now I remember.

I saw him in the first-floor lobby when
we were leaving your housewarming party.

I've heard about it.

He's a friend of my husband's.

Yeah?

Your husband...

had a friend like that?

If you're really uncomfortable with it,
let's change the scenario.

Why do people never really change?

Twenty years is a pretty long time.

Exactly.

They commit sins
that even repentance and remorse

can never make the
victims' families forgive.

Why do they even do it?

At times like this,

that saying, "A leopard can't change
its spots," feels so cruel, doesn't it?

But still, not everyone kills just because

they grew up in different
conditions and environments.

Plenty of people serve the time they
deserve and then go on to live new lives.

That's why the law and the state
give them another chance.

Let's stick to the scenario.

Will you be okay?

I have to be.

It's my job, and it's what I can do.

Why are you going
after that punk, you idiot?

What are you planning
to do if you meet him?

What do you mean? I'm just watching him.

Why? What...

Worried the cop might
do something reckless?

Especially since I have a g*n?

Jeez, even your jokes are messed up.

- Why do you have a g*n...
- If you know I'm joking,

stop worrying and go home.

Didn't you say
your wife's working late tonight?

I'm hanging up.

[My Santa]

I'm working late.

Where are you, Tae Seong?

I'm leaving work now.

Se Ah said she'd watch Yul until eight.
I'll make sure I get home before then.

I won't be too late either.

I'll call you when I'm done.

[Wednesday, May 6]

Jang Eun Hak is leaving work.

He's expected to arrive in
about five minutes.

Okay.

He's entering the next block.

Looks like he's buying something.
He just went into a convenience store.

Oh...

It's liquor.

He grabbed a few bottles of soju
and sat down outside the store.

This could take a while.

Ms. Yoo, there's a man
tailing Jang Eun Hak.

- A man?
- Looks like he's been following him

since the workshop.

He's watching him from a distance.

What does he look like?

Wearing a jacket, mid-thirties, maybe?

I can't make out his face on camera.

Let me take a look.

Could it be the son who's a cop...

Yeah, that's him.

Then I guess today...

Let's just watch for now.

Jang Eun Hak is moving.

He's heading back the way he came?

I see him.

Jang Eun Hak has gone
back into the workshop.

Ms. Yoo, Jang Eun Hak made a move again.

What? What about the son?

What? Is he hurt?

Jang Eun Hak bolted out.

The son chased right after him.

He's holding a g*n.

I'm heading out.

Track their route and keep me posted.

Ms. Yoo, Kwon Tae Seong is here.

- What?
- He went into the workshop,

came back out, and ran off
in the direction the two of them went.

Why is your husband here...

Ms. Yoo! Ms. Yoo, are you listening?

Yeah, I'm listening.

- Then let's pull out for today...
- No.

If we leave now, we'll lose him.

Keep going.

I'm down. Which way?

Ms. Yoo, what are you going to do?

What if something happens today...

Ki Yeong Do.

With your back to the workshop,
you are on the left.

It's to your right, Ms. Yoo.

Don't take any unnecessary risks.

Jang Eun Hak, stop!

Jang Eun Hak, stop!

Meeting concluded.

Good work, Ms. Yoo.

You should get out of there for now.

Dong Jin!

What's wrong with you?

Are you okay?

No...

Not me. I didn't sh**t him.

- I know, I know.
- Not me... I...

Kingfisher...

Kingfisher was here.

Kingfisher was here... Kingfisher...

Kingfisher... Kingfisher...

Kingfisher...

Dong Jin!

Dong Jin!

No.

You need to get to a hospital first.

You're hurt right now.

I have to catch him.
I have to catch Kingfisher.

You're bleeding badly now!

He was here.

Kingfisher was right here moments ago.

Lee Dong Jin, Lee Dong Jin.

Pull yourself together.

You have to stay conscious.

Tae Seong.

That punk, Jang Eun Hak...

is dead.

That punk...

He is dead, that punk...

Tae Seong, what do I do? I'm...

I'm so glad that...

Jang Eun Hak is dead.

And...

I'm ashamed of myself for feeling that way.

Dong Jin, it's alright.

Dong Jin, it's alright. It's alright.

I was the person in the world
who wanted Jang Eun Hak dead the most.

Every single day, without fail,
I wanted to k*ll him.

Even after twenty years,
whenever I think about that day...

I imagined sh**ting
him over and over again.

I imagined a hole blown through his head,
his entire body torn to shreds,

writhing in agony, then falling into hell.

I wanted desperately to see it
with my own eyes.

I know. I know, Dong Jin.

But first, let's go to
the hospital. Please.

Dong Jin, Dong Jin.

You need to go to the hospital first.

I have to catch Kingfisher.

He k*lled that punk!

Kingfisher k*lled that punk.

For twenty years you pictured it
over and over, but couldn't do it.

Kingfisher did.

You saw it, right?

That punk was trying to k*ll someone again.

That's right. I couldn't do it.

Even when Jang Eun Hak
was running right in front of me,

with the back of his head
right there in front of me,

I still couldn't k*ll him.

Do you know why?

You asked me before.

What if he didn't change?

But I already had my answer.

If he commits a crime,
I'll catch him and throw him in.

If he gets out and commits another crime,
I'll catch him and throw him in again.

I'll keep catching him and locking him up.

That's my way,
and it's the right thing to do.

No, in reality, those
punks never get judged.

Dong Jin, the law isn't perfect.
And you know that, right?

Oh, yeah?

Then do whatever you want.

I don't care whether the law
is perfect or not.

To me, they're just the same punks
who k*lled people.

And catching punks like that is my job.

I'll do my job, so you do yours.

Write a story, cover a case, whatever.

You're a reporter, right?

Beom, where are you?

Beom.

Comb through all the nearby CCTV footage
and track his escape route.

And collect every fingerprint, footprint,
and trace evidence around the rooftop.

Okay.

Se Ah.

- Huh? Oh.
- Sorry for waking you.

Bo Na, you're home?

Well, Tae Seong called earlier
saying he'd be late,

so I washed Yul and put her to bed
in the master bedroom.

Sorry I'm late. Thank you.

Go ahead and do what you need to do.

[My Santa]
Something came up.

I'll be really late tonight.
Don't wait up. Go to bed first.

[Did Kingfisher...]

Did Kingfisher...

see me too?

That man that day...

Was he really Kingfisher?

Goodnight, Tae Seong.

Tae Seong.

I'll do my job, so you do yours.

You're a reporter, right?

[Did Kingfisher see me too?]

[That man that day...
Was he really Kingfisher?]

Exclusive: Kingfisher Crime Scene.

A supermarket m*rder convict died

after being shot while fleeing
an attempted m*rder.

Jang Eun Hak, previously imprisoned
for the m*rder of a supermarket couple

in Gangmyeon-dong 20 years ago,

died after attempting another m*rder
just one month after his release on parole.

[Unusual Alleyway Attack]
Another Kingfisher incident

[Kingfisher Strikes Again Last Night]
occurred last night.

The victim this time was Mr. Jang,

who had brutally m*rder*d
a supermarket-owning couple 20 years ago.

[Supermarket m*rder Convict Shot Dead]
He was sentenced to 16 years,

[While Fleeing After Attempted m*rder]
and died a month after being paroled,

[Supermarket Couple m*rder Found Dead]
a year before his full term,

[One Month After Parole]
sending shock through the community.

- Moreover, this incident differs from
- They say Kingfisher

- the previous ones,
- struck again yesterday.

- which mainly occurred
- Really?

- in enclosed, isolated spaces.
- Kingfisher is awesome.

Unlike other Kingfisher cases,

this one occurred in a residential alley,
making it highly unusual.

[Exclusive: Kingfisher Crime Scene]
Shockingly, Mr. Jang was revealed

to have attempted to m*rder his employer.

Just one month after being paroled,
he had committed another attempted m*rder,

this time as a flagrant offender.

Furthermore, given the urgent situation
with the suspect on the run,

it is speculated that Kingfisher
may have broken from his usual pattern

and carried out the sh**ting
in a public place.

Mommy, where is Daddy?

Why isn't Daddy waking up?

Dad? Let Daddy sleep a little longer.

Is Daddy a sleepyhead?

Daddy worked late
last night, so he's tired.

What work?

Writing articles?

What is an article?

An article is something
that tells people in the world

what happened, why it happened,
and what to do now. That's what it does.

Yul, you finished all of this, right?

Oh? You did? Then let's have this.

You said you want to be tall
like Mommy and Daddy, right?

Then you need to eat this
and grow big and tall.

Here, eat.

Is it good?

It is good!

Yeah?

Daddy!

My little precious! Oh, my!

My treasure!

Did you sleep well?

You're already all dressed?

Yeah. I'm dressed, and I ate this too.

I'm going to be this tall, just like you.

Wow, really? Good job.

Sorry, I overslept.

I will make it up to you tomorrow, okay?

Oh, my.

Why don't you sleep a little longer?
You're already up?

I have to get to work.

You must have been tired
from working late last night too,

and you were probably super busy
all alone today.

What? What's with that meaningful look
so early in the morning...

No, it's not that.

It's the look of someone gazing
at someone precious.

Go wash up. I'll make you some toast.

Just a second.

Let me recharge first.

Me too.

Go wash up.

I'm having two pieces of toast.

[Resignation Letter]

Are you threatening me now?

Say it to my face.
Don't do this with a piece of paper.

I know there's
a Kingfisher countermeasure meeting today,

chaired by the Commissioner General.

So what?

How many times have chiefs had meetings?

Don't you know
those meetings are just for show?

Then please make sure
this one isn't just for show.

How exactly am I supposed to do that?

What, you want me to put you in charge?

Why would I?

This is my case.

What were you doing yesterday,
and now you come here?

You finally came face-to-face
with the man you wanted to catch so badly.

But why didn't you catch him?

Jeez.

Other stations asked me
whether you deliberately let him get away.

They think you were
stalling to give the guy

who took your revenge
for you time to escape.

If that's the case,

it'll be grounds for an investigation
and disciplinary action.

Including why you were lurking around
Jang Eun Hak at that time.

You don't think this will come up
in today's meeting?

Only you know the truth.

I won't ask you about it.

But you need to let it go too.

If an investigation or disciplinary action
comes up, I'll cover for you.

You can go now.

I won't make excuses.
I'll take responsibility.

If they tell me to accept
the punishment, I will.

If they give me a
chance, I'll make it right.

And if neither is possible...

[Resignation Letter]

Please accept my resignation.

Hey, take this back.

Hey, Lee Dong Jin.

Hey, Dong Jin.

Jeez, he's bowing, which he never does.

Oh, Mr. Lee.

As expected, all the CCTV footage
around the area was wiped.

It was a no-parking zone, so there wasn't
anything useful from dashcams either.

There's a public parking lot in the back.

I saw it.

You did?

Most of the people living there
work in the furniture district,

so it's normally deserted at that hour
because everyone goes to bed early.

Jeez, and no word on any witnesses, either.

What about forensics?

Nothing yet. Doesn't look like
they recovered much from the scene.

But you never know what might turn up,
so keep checking regularly.

Okay.

But are you okay, Mr. Lee?

How do you think I feel after letting him
slip away right in front of me?

No, I didn't mean that.

The victim, Jang Eun Hak, is that person...

Enough.

What happened with those couple of
as*ault suspects from last time?

Nothing yet on that one.

The cybercrime unit
hasn't found anything either.

So what are you going to do without me?

What? Why would you be gone?

Where are you going?

[Civil Servant ID, Lee Dong Jin]

You're getting a new mentor soon.

Keep your eyes open
and learn everything you can.

And don't make your
previous mentor look bad.

Wait, you're not quitting, are you?
You're not, right?

Jeez, where are you going?

I'm going to sleep.

Now of all times?

[Investigative Reporting Team]

[Kwon Tae Seong]

[Kingfisher: Notorious k*ller
or Avenger of Justice?]

An avenger of justice...

[Reporter Kwon Tae Seong
tracked the cases involving Kingfisher]

[and found what they had in common]

[Five Reflections on Kingfisher]

[The Painful Questions Kingfisher
Forces Our Society to Ask]

[Even if Kingfisher is caught tomorrow,
the questions he raised will remain]

[Kwon Tae Seong, Social Affairs Reporter]

Wow! As expected of Kwon Tae Seong.

His comeback piece on Kingfisher
is an on-the-ground exclusive too.

Ms. Gu, did you go there with him?

Oh, no, I didn't know about it.

Really? What? He acted like
he wasn't interested,

but he was digging into it on his own?

So it was all an act.

But why isn't he here?

We need a follow-up article fast.

Let's focus on the parole system
for our next piece.

Let's look into possible loopholes
in Jang Eun Hak's parole review process,

and focus on preventive measures
so this kind of thing doesn't happen again.

Based on your research,
prepare a draft article.

I have somewhere else I need to go today.

What's he saying? Why isn't he coming?

Oh, I don't know about that.

He just told me to prepare the article.

Oh! A quick follow-up story? I like it.

What's the angle?

The homework Kingfisher left us?

Oh, homework?

What's that supposed to mean?

Director Yoo

must have been quite surprised
by her husband's article.

She knew about it.

- What?
- She fired, knowing her husband was coming.

She probably figured that if she missed
the shot, more people might get hurt.

What if she bumped into her husband?

She probably factored all of that
into her decision.

Because she has never once been wrong.

She's never been wrong.
Never made a mistake.

Anyway, Assistant Manager Ki,
you must've had a hard time.

I erased what I could
and checked for witnesses and vehicles,

but the area was huge,
so I'm not sure we covered every route.

We didn't get a chance to check
the new sn*per position afterward, either.

Getting out quickly was our priority.

So now,

we don't know where something
could come from, huh?

So far, nothing concerning
has appeared in the police database.

Keep monitoring it closely.

And for the time being,
let's leave out the sn*per stuff.

Understood.

Good work.

Let's give you a bath, Tae Soon.

You'll start to smell
if you don't get washed regularly.

Yoo Bo Na must have had a great time,
like flying high, right?

Shall we wash your hair too?

Ah, you're so pretty.

Nice and cool.

Wow, look at all this dust.

How can this be where our
Director Yoo stays, even for a minute?

Jeez, move over there a bit!

I'm going to get lung inflammation
from this, seriously.

I can't sleep at night. I can't sleep.

Our great Kingfisher
should be resting well today.

But what is she doing?
Is she sleeping soundly?

Even the way she
sleeps must be totally cool.

Oh, seriously, what are these?

Keep this stuff cleaned up!

Jeez.

Ugh. What got on it, seriously?

This is expensive,
and it can't even be dry-cleaned.

How long has that trash been sitting here?

Tae Soon, you got scared, didn't you?

Are you really not going to help?

Clean this up, now!

Training's pretty intense today?

You usually train like this
when you have a lot on your mind.

I felt like my body was a bit stiff.

Yesterday's mission was intense too.
You should get some rest.

What about the shop?

What if a customer comes?

The only customers I have are flies.

Guess I'll help you make a few more sales.

Looks like your husband was at the scene.

It's nothing you need to worry about.

If it's work,
there's no reason for me to worry.

Yul must have grown a lot lately.

She's asking what her daddy does.

I tell her, "Well, your daddy is someone
who does this kind of work."

She may not understand now,

but someday she will, right?

What kind of person her daddy is.

She'll be proud of him.

That's the kind of work he does.

It's when he's doing that work
that he really shines.

He does his job, and I do mine.

As for the unavoidable variables
that come up along the way...

well, I'll manage them
just like I did in the field.

Isn't that what you taught me?

I did?

Well, that was so long ago.
I barely remember.

[Hye Ri's Mom]
This is Hye Ri's mom.

You got the call from the daycare, right?

Don't you think we need to talk?

Why? What's the problem this time?

[Yul's Daycare]

Yes, Miss.

Yul?

Oh...

Really?

Assistant Manager Ki, this is Kwon Se Ah.

I got your number from Bo Na
and wanted to reach out.

I'd like to return your cleaned clothes.

When would be convenient?

Just throw them...

Let's meet after work today.

Today!

Yeah!

Hey, Kwon Se Ah! You can do this, right?

Today's the day!

He said let's meet today,
not tomorrow. What do I do?

Oh?

Oh, jeez.

[Mr. Tiger]
What are you doing now?

I'm a little down today.
Let's just grab a meal.

What?

The customer's phone is turned off...

Seriously, where is he hiding
with his phone turned off?

Was the shock of missing
Kingfisher too much for him?

He's not really quitting, is he?

[You have a new message]

Eat by yourself. I'm busy.

Another date today?
With your sister-in-law again?

No. Today it's with a guy.

Oh, with a guy.

W-W-With a guy?

With who?

Yul, did something happen at kindergarten?

Look at Mommy.

Can you tell me what happened?

That way, I can help you.

Yul, I'm your best friend, remember?

Best friends don't keep secrets
from each other.

Mommy...

Mommy.

Oh, I see.

Were you upset?

Oh, dear. You were upset? Okay.

I'm sorry. I understand.

Mommy.

A punk who shot a dad dead

right in front of his seven-year-old son.

The kid was so traumatized
that he still can't speak.

A normal human being
wouldn't k*ll a parent in front of a child.

No matter how vile the criminal was,
that still isn't right, right?

What is it? What do you want?

Does an elderly lady
and her grandson live here?

An elderly lady?

Oh, you must mean the people
who lived here before.

I moved in last year.

Okay, I see.

[Ongsan Dream Real Estate]
Oh, that old lady?

- She went to a nursing home last year.
- A nursing home?

She had dementia or something
starting a few years ago.

She's probably been a bit
in and out of it mentally for a while.

Then what about the kid...
She had a grandson, didn't she?

Her grandson?

Oh, the boy who spoke strangely
and barely talked?

Yeah. He'd been pretty troubled
ever since what happened to his dad.

Do you happen to know where he is now?

Didn't he end up in
some kind of institution?

Yeah, that's right.

There was no one to take care of him,
so I think he went to an orphanage.

Here.

Sorry I'm returning these so late,
Assistant Manager Ki.

They've been cleaned for a while,

but I wasn't sure
how to get them back to you.

Okay.

Yeah.

Don't you have anything else to say?

Pardon?

Oh, I guess it's my turn to talk.

I believe we had a date planned.

Oh, you remember.

Then shall we start with dinner?

I'm fine without eating.

Hey, what are you doing here?

You! Why are you here?
How did you know I was here?

You told me.

Huh?

"Hey, where are you?" "Me? Yun Cafe."

I've been looking everywhere for you.

Why?

Hello. I'm Beom Seong Hun,
Se Dol's friend here.

I've heard a lot about you.

Hey, what have I even said about him...

No, I didn't.

If it's not rude, may I join you?

No, it is rude. It's very rude.
You're being incredibly rude.

Oh, he might seem a bit clueless,
but he's definitely not a bad guy.

First of all, his job is a cop.

Can't you see this isn't exactly
the place for you right now?

Why don't you leave
while I'm asking nicely?

Hey, why isn't this the place for me?

Don't you know the world is
a dangerous place these days?

Even if he looks innocent on the outside,

an expert like me needs to scan him
and see if he's rotten on the inside.

You, seriously...

Not that I'm saying that's what you are,
of course. Don't get me wrong.

We were just about to
go get something to eat.

Shall we get going?

Oh, food!

Hey, perfect timing.

I was just getting hungry.

Well, since we've met like this,
why don't we have a meal together?

I know a good place nearby.

Assistant Manager Ki, we'll go ahead.
Can you come out in a little while?

Sure.

- Come on out!
- Hey.

Oh, seriously.

Hey, put this down.

Hey, do you have a g*n on you right now?

Do you think I would? What's with the g*n?

So I can blow your head off!

Hey, that hurts!

I came because I was
worried about you, okay?

About what?

You know I've got good instincts, right?

Oh, you do? You do?

There's something off about that guy.

Like he reeks of a brutal
crime or something?

He's my sister-in-law's coworker, got it?

Then that whole company sounds suspicious.

Hmm...

If you don't have a g*n,
I'll use my bare hands, you punk!

Why did you come here? Aren't you leaving?

Why'd you come here just to piss me off?

- Hey, that's enough.
- Where is it?

That restaurant.

What?

This is the kind of chicken feet place
you can't quit once you've tried it.

Alright, starting with
whole chicken feet, spicy chicken feet,

boneless chicken feet,
and braised chicken feet.

For the record, our usual move
is to start with the soupy ones

and finish with the grilled spicy ones.

Do you like chicken feet?

Sometimes. Very occasionally.

They're also packed
with collagen, you know.

Can't you eat them?

No. I'm going to give them
a try starting today.

Then please enjoy.

Cheers!

Cheers!

This is so good.

You said you're a cop. What division?

Criminal Affairs, Violent Crimes.

Oh, Violent Crimes.

You must get some interesting cases.

Plenty of horrible ones.

People die, get hurt, get messed up.

What case have you been working on lately?

That's confidential.

You seem really
interested in crime, though?

I'm interested in profiling.

I majored in psychology too.

You majored in psychology.

That's impressive.

Then let me give you a scenario.

Want to try profiling it for fun?

Sounds fun.

Okay, a man

was shot dead through a gap
in a motel window by a sn*per r*fle.

Who's the k*ller?

Are you kidding? The whole country knows.

It happened yesterday too.

Hey, do you think I'd ask about that?

Who do you think Kingfisher really is?

I'm not sure.

The police don't have enough evidence
to make an inference like that.

The whole process is extremely methodical,
and he leaves no evidence behind.

That's why I have a theory.

"Maybe Kingfisher isn't acting alone?"
That kind of.

That's possible.

His methods do seem highly organized.

But you sound pretty certain, though?

That he never leaves any evidence.

That's why the police
haven't caught him yet, right?

Ma'am, one more order of
chicken feet in broth, please.

Yeah.

Hey!

Did you really eat all that
by yourself already?

Me?

Oh, my.

Wait, you've got something on you.

Thank you.

It's nice to see someone
with such a good appetite.

I usually eat pretty well.

Assistant Manager Ki,
you should eat some too.

Oh, I'm fine. I don't really eat that much.

Oh, right.

You did say you don't eat much, right?

I should get going.

I need to head back to the station.

Yeah? You sure?

Go ahead, bye.

Don't forget to pay on your way out.

Yeah, just stay and have some fun.

Maybe we'll see each other again sometime.

Wow! Looks like Se Dol
finally escaped the single life.

Jeez, but why do I feel like this?

Wow, one beer here costs...

Is this some fancy place?

Everyone, let's be prepared.

We need to nip this in the bud.

Both of you are here as well.

Thanks for showing up.

This isn't just about Hye Ri.

Who knows whose child could be next?

I ordered some beer
and snacks. Is beer okay?

Oh, absolutely. Beer sounds great.

Well, since we're at a bar,
we might as well have a drink.

What are you talking about, beer?

We left the kids at home,
so let's keep this short and wrap it up.

Just because of some stupid blocks,
those two kids ganged up and hurt Hye Ri.

She must've been so upset.

She came home and wouldn't even
eat her favorite pork cutlet...

Oh, my.

What's this?

Is that Yul's finger?

Oh, my God. What happened?

Every time Seo Jun built something
with the blocks,

Hye Ri would come and knock it down.

So Yul tried to stop her.

Then Hye Ri bit Yul's finger.

Seo Jun got scared and pushed Hye Ri away.

As far as he's concerned,
he was only trying to separate them.

Wait, Hye Ri bit Yul?

Hye Ri didn't mention any of that.

Oh, maybe she was afraid you'd scold her,
so she didn't tell you.

Oh, that must've hurt.

Why didn't Yul tell the teacher about this?

Wait.

So did you call us here
to complain about this?

To get an apology out of me?

Hye Ri's mom.

Yeah?

No, why? What is it?

As a mom, what am I supposed
to do in a situation like this...

I honestly don't know.

So I just told Yul what felt right to me.

I told Yul that Hye Ri didn't do it
because she hated Yul.

She was probably just upset for a moment.

Well, the kids still have to
live together going forward.

We need to comfort them
so this doesn't leave a bad memory,

and help them get along better from now on.

I think that's what adults should do.

So I wanted to ask for your advice
on how to do that.

Oh, what is there to do?

Just discipline them
if they did something wrong,

have them apologize if they need to,
and let the moms clear the air. That's all.

- That's right.
- Yeah.

Right.

Oh, the drinks are here.

Thank you.

Oh, you made it?

Sorry I'm late.

Just a second.

Oh, I saw some blood earlier,
and I'm still feeling queasy.

Hye Ri's mom is...

- Over here.
- Here.

Oh, there you are.

Hye Ri's mom, I heard
our Seo Jun pushed Hye Ri.

That little punk.

I'll give him a good talking-to
when I get home.

I'll make him write an apology letter too.

But I heard he already
apologized to Hye Ri.

Yes, he did.

Yes, he apologized.

Well, that's good.

I'll apologize too, on behalf of his mom.

- Well...
- I'm sorry, Hye Ri's mom.

Wow!

That's a bold apology.

I...

Sor...

What should I do?

Do you think Yul will be okay
without going to the hospital?

Oh, it went down pretty quickly
after I put some medicine on it.

Thanks for asking.

- Oh, good.
- What a relief.

Wow, this is great, right?

Let's have a proper drink
and loosen up. Cheers.

- Out of drinks.
- Oh, no beer.

Can I have a glass of beer?

- Here, you can have some of mine for now.
- Okay, sure.

Cheers.

- Cheers!
- Cheers!

Well...

Assistant Manager Ki,
did I happen to do something wrong?

Not at all.

You just seem pretty different from
how you were at the restaurant.

You haven't said much at all.

This is the real me.
Earlier, I was putting on an act.

Why would you do that?

Do you like me?

Yeah, I mean, no.

Yeah.

I'm sorry, but I have no interest in you.

You're not my type.

I'm sorry for asking you out.

It was way too impulsive.

Sorry.

That's what I wanted to tell you,
so I asked to see you today.

Then what is your type?

I'm...

attracted to a woman strong enough
to hold my life in her hands.

Eat up and relax, rookie.

A woman who could hurt me at any time,

but chooses not to.

That's quite a unique preference.

But Assistant Manager Ki,
you don't even know me.

That's right.

And I don't particularly want to know you.

Okay!

Found today's punching bag.

- Found one.
- Found one.

[Cybercrime Unit, Sergeant Kim]

- Yes, Mr. Kim.
- Hey, Mr. Beom. It's me.

Guess what I found?

I sent you a link.
Can you check it right away?

Sure. Give me a second.

Hello, gentlemen!

- It's time for Mace Man's justice.
- Justice!

Let's get things started with a bang.

What's this?

Apparently, it's a streaming site
that's been growing underground lately.

They livestream violent or obscene videos,

and apparently get paid in
some kind of cryptocurrency.

Who are we going to teach a lesson today?

Let's go with a pretty one, if possible.

You won't be able to see their faces
once they're covered in blood, idiot.

See them? Three masked men.

These guys look like the couple-as*ault
suspects you've been after, right?

Oh, you're right.

Man, so cryptocurrency was their motive?

Does it show where they are?

It says Songju Park.

Songju Park?

Huh? That's nearby.

So what do you think of
these punks, gentlemen?

Zoom in on the woman's face.

Let's see.

- Huh?
- There.

Darn it.

Ah, well...

Mr. Kim, please call for backup
from the local precinct,

and send ambulances to Songju Park.

- Three ambulances.
- Three?

- Not two?
- No, three. Make sure it's three.

No. Kwon Se Ah, please!

This way, right?

What are they doing?

Why are they just walking?

The guy's obviously a pathetic loser.

He can't even hold her hand.

Well, gentlemen,
I think it's time to teach them a lesson.

I've already been rejected,

but since I started this confession anyway,
let me just finish it.

The first day we met,
when you said you'd help me find Yul,

that's when you dove
straight into my heart.

And...

Who on earth are you?

Wait...

Assistant Manager Ki, are you okay?

I'm...

attracted to a woman strong enough
to hold my life in her hands.

A woman who could hurt me at any time,

but chooses not to.

[Kwon Se Ah, Current: Graduate student,
College of Physical Education]

[Former: Women's Judo
National Team Reserve]

Kwon Se Ah, please.

Take it easy. Don't k*ll them.

Assistant Manager Ki!

Yeah, I'm... I'm fine.

Oh, no, what do I do?

I'm sorry. Are you okay?

Oh, dear.

Oh, please don't come any closer.

Please, just stay back.

Oh, my tailbone... Oh...

Jeez, I said stay back.

Oh, my, are you okay?

Oh...

Stay still! Don't move!

Darn, this is so embarrassing.

Hey, take out that punk first!

If you keep doing this,
I'm seriously going to call the police...

No time for that.

Oh, I'm terrified.

Assistant Manager Ki,
that must've scared you, right?

It... did.

They just came out of nowhere.

Hey, Kwon Se Ah!

Huh? What?

Hey, you!

You...

I knew you'd pull something like this.

Huh?

Hey!

Hey, look at what you've done to him...

I told you not to use
your techniques carelessly, right?

Well... It just happened automatically.

Hey, wake up!

Are you okay? Hey!

Wow, he passed out cold.

Okay, no visible injuries.

And you're not hurt anywhere, right?
Of course not.

- Yeah.
- And you...

barely had to lift a finger anyway.

Oh, nice timing.

[Beom Seong Hun, Current:
Nambu Station's Youngest Detective]

[Former: Asian Games Gold Medalist
in Men's Judo, Special Police Hire]

Don't move.

You're under arrest for aggravated as*ault
and obstruction of official duties.

You have the right
to remain silent and to an attorney.

Oh, right. And anything stupid you say
can be used against you,

so watch what you say.

Mr. Tiger! True colors of a cop!
Champions of justice!

- Hey!
- Hey!

- Take them down and finish it!
- Take them down and finish it!

- You remember?
- Hey, how do you know that?

- This is nothing.
- Hey, what's going on here?

- A throw.
- Hey, that's not right!

No, you do it from here, like this!

- Bam!
- Oh!

What was that? Wow, you're good.

- Of course, I'm a cop.
- Jeez.

The police will be here soon...

The kid...

She's getting harder and harder to handle.

Of course. The older they get,
the less they listen.

I complained to my mom once,
and you know what she said?

Did she say she'd scold your kid?

She said my kid's
exactly like I was as a kid.

She prayed for me
to have a daughter just like me,

and her wish came true.

That scared me more than anything.

"A daughter who takes after me."

Kids are half born that way
and half learn by watching.

That's why they say,
"A child is a reflection of their parents."

That saying, that one really hits me hard.

I mean, isn't that a little unfair to me?

All the time and effort I put into her...

Jeez.

Hold on.

- It's your husband.
- Your husband.

What?

What time is it right now?

Look at the clock.

You come home at midnight every day,

and you're complaining about
having to watch the kid one day early?

What, her bath?

Just give her a bath yourself.

I don't know. Just put her to bed.

Or whatever.

Seriously, how is he
exactly like my husband?

We had this kid together,

so why am I the one expected to do
all the parenting?

If this is how it's going to be,

he shouldn't have been begging
for a second kid.

Well, my husband,

even when I beg him to play
with the kids instead of drinking,

all he ever says is, "Yeah, yeah."

And one time,

he called saying he was leaving,

and then he took so long to show up
that I went down to check,

and there he was, sleeping
in the parking lot. This guy, seriously.

In the car?

Yeah.

What a gentleman.

What?

I got a call from the security office
once about Hye Ri's dad.

They said he was snoring
away in the elevator.

Oh, God.

What if the kids learn from watching them?

Then just raise them alone as I do.

What about you, Yul's mom?

What?

Yul's dad.

I'm curious what kind of dad Yul has.

Yeah, me too. What's he like?

My husband?

Did my little girl get hurt a lot?

Yeah, it hurt a lot.

It's okay. I put some medicine on it,
so it'll get better soon.

What made you the saddest today, Yul?

Hye Ri cried today.

Oh, did seeing Hye Ri cry
make you the saddest?

- Yeah.
- Why did that make you so sad?

Because Mommy told me
to get along with my friends.

Oh, you wanted to get along
with your friend, but it didn't work out?

Yeah. But we shouldn't hurt our friends.

That's right. We
shouldn't hurt our friends.

- No biting and no pushing, right?
- Yeah.

But sometimes things like that happen
when you're playing with friends.

What should you do then?

I should say "Sorry."

That's right.

Apologize, make up, and be friends again.

Yeah, I'll give them presents
and ask them to play with me.

Wow, your friends are going to love that.

Then how about we pick out presents
for your friends together tomorrow?

- Yeah.
- Good.

Now, what should we play?

Superman?

Alright, arms out! Superman!

Stretch!

Wow!

They say the one who throws the punch
sleeps like a baby.

Even the punk who threatened the chief
seems pretty darn comfortable.

Hey, Lee Dong Jin, wake up.

Wake up, now!

God, because of you,
I made a total fool of myself

in front of the commissioner today...

God, why did I ever bring in
a blockhead like you?

You...

You have to risk your life.

Otherwise, we're both going down.

What?

What are you doing?

Move it and pack your stuff, you punk!

A special task force has been formed

to apprehend the serial k*ller
known as Kingfisher.

Accordingly, the scattered
investigative information and personnel

from each case
are expected to be consolidated,

with dedicated staff assigned
to accelerate the Kingfisher investigation.

[Ok's Flower Shop]

Will this finally end with
Kingfisher's arrest?

Attention is now focused on
the newly formed Kingfisher task force.

The mugging during the World Cup?

I believe it could provide a clue
to Kingfisher's identity.

Do you remember the caller's voice?

The message on the first card
they sent was...

"I hope you find your
own beautiful scenery."

Can you tell me anything
about the person sending the flowers?

Who is it? The person you saw that day.

Some woman.

Why are you looking for that woman?

She either witnessed Kingfisher,
or she is Kingfisher.

You should still have
the voice message on your phone.

Who's taking this case?

We'll set a trap around Gu Jung Yeol
before Kingfisher makes a move.

Client meeting starts.

Let's go catch Kingfisher.
