During the Korean War days,
Cha Moohyuk was considered a grim reaper to the double agents.
Heading to the Chinese Embassy. Block the alley.
Stay here. I'll take care of him.
Yes, sir.
Comrade, please spare me.
This isn't how I trained you.
You've had it easy, haven't you? Your moves are dull.
Comrade.
Please spare me.
Is that all you have to say?
The era of division is over now.
Say it again.
I heard the decision's been made already.
People like us from the North are disposable.
I was going to kill you painlessly, considering our past.
Hey, you bastard!
But as everyone now knows, the double agent's words were true.
DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF KOREA, MINISTRY OF STATE SECURITY
It'll be like our team never existed.
What will my duty be from now on?
Duty? Perhaps a security guard.
SMOKING CAUSES ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
No, thank you, sir.
Moohyuk was looking at the flames of a new era.
And everything he had dedicated his whole life to was burning to ashes.
Hello, sir.
You are?
You came to the Task Force at the Mint last time, right?
Oh.
-You must be Woojin's colleague. -I'm Cha Moohyuk.
-He's coming. -A word, please.
Could you give us a comment, sir?
Where's Captain Cha?
A North Korean agent said he went to investigate last night.
-At this hour? -I don't know the details.
Why'd you call us at this hour? What's going on?
What does this look like?
My eyes aren't what they used to be. What's this?
-This is… -It's money.
100,000 won.
That's right. It's money.
They've been printing money in there.
I've heard about you from Inspector Sun.
From Woojin?
She said she comes here often.
I wanted to visit.
I happened to see you walking in on my way home.
Well, we're not officially open yet.
Is this not a good time?
I'm sorry. I was just so hungry.
No, it's okay. You're Woojin's colleague, so you're a special guest to me.
Let me see.
What should I make for you?
SUN WOOJIN
He's not answering?
No.
So, the hostage slipped it in your pocket to tell us that the robbers
were printing money inside.
But how is that possible?
You can't just print money that easily.
What about serial numbers?
Can't the money be tracked later?
They have a hacker. Wouldn't surprise me if they also had a mint expert.
I don't know how either.
But this explains why they seemed like they were buying time.
What's important is if that's their goal,
we need to change our strategy.
Wait a minute.
If you're right this time,
we can't take care of this on our end.
Let's run it up first.
Let's check with the Mint to see if those fools can actually use the money.
I'll check the Mint's use of electricity first.
Okay. I'll report it right away and get confirmation.
Be prepared to move fast once told.
Yes, sir.
Unbelievable bastards.
They must be excited smelling the new bills.
Let them.
They won't enjoy it for much longer.
You really must have been hungry.
This is so delicious.
So, why don't you open your café? It's been over two months.
Your business will do well.
I didn't do enough market research.
They say my coffee is too bitter compared to what the North Koreans drink.
Oh, you mean Sambok coffee. It tastes like South Korean mix coffee.
Right. I'm going to rethink the menu and concept for the café.
By the way, where's the sanitary room?
Oh, you mean the bathroom? It's that way.
The bathroom isn't this way.
I see.
By the way, what is this room for?
It's personal space.
And what's this?
It's a lame hobby for a middle-aged man.
Let's go downstairs.
Okay.
KCSI at JEA Police Station.
This is Captain Cha from the Joint Task Force.
Can you run fingerprints now?
-Yes, if it's a reported case. -Please, it's urgent.
Is that your grandson? He's adorable. He looks about three months old.
How'd you know?
Do you have a child?
Of course not.
Look at me.
A mother cannot be in shape like this.
Don't worry. You'll get out of here safe and meet them.
Do you mean it?
I don't lie about stuff like that.
Let's go…
Oh, goodness.
To the land of happiness
Everyone
Everyone…
Didn't you get drunk and cry, saying you miss your mommy?
When did I ever do that?
Stop talking shit.
Hey, get back in quickly.
Hey.
You're the new security guard, right?
How's it going?
THE BIRD THAT DRINKS BLOOD
What're you doing there?
Reading a book?
Those on guard duty were fooling around, so I was covering for them.
You missed the leader's chair, huh?
It sure is comfortable.
Actually, I prefer a hard floor.
Thank goodness we evacuated.
Do the police care what happens to us?
Who knows?
I doubt they planned to rescue us in the first place.
I understand how the director knew about it, but how did she find out?
About what?
That special agent Park was carrying out a secret mission.
I'm saying, how'd that little girl find out first?
He probably informed her in advance.
She's not just anyone.
She's the daughter of the US ambassador.
She's VVIP.
How can you be sure?
She told me to evacuate the hostages.
Maybe she felt guilty.
So, they don't care if we rot in here as long as the VIPs walk out alive?
That's enough.
-Sir, the situation-- -My daughter's been in there for days!
Sir, please calm down--
You have a daughter too!
Would you be calm if you were in my shoes?
I understand completely.
That's why I'm here to make sure the police don't--
Stop with the lip service.
If my Anne gets hurt even a little, you won't get your Inter-Korean Summit!
Sir, what does that have to do with the Mint situation?
Mr. Kim, the director of the CIA, and I went to Brown together.
He told me that you and Mr. Oh were planning to cash in on the summit.
That's non--
Enough! You tell Mr. Oh this.
If anything happens to Anne, he won't get even a penny!
He's really pissed off.
Taking them by force isn't an option, is it?
You know,
I have good connections, and I heard a strange rumor.
They say those scumbag robbers are printing money inside the Mint.
What? How--
Do you know
how much money I put into developing empty fields and mountains in North Korea?
Do you know just how much I spent to make you president?
If I lose that money,
our deal will be off the table.
But you saw how Marshall reacted.
We can't use force recklessly.
So, what's so difficult?
We just have to take care of his daughter.
I checked the electricity use. They're definitely running the printers.
What did the higher-ups say?
Well, I made the report.
It's under discussion, considering the situation.
What?
What about the serial numbers? Is it possible?
They're looking into that too.
Do they want us to do our job or not?
More than that though.
They've ordered us to stop wiretapping the Mint.
What do you mean?
Why all of a sudden?
There's been a lot of civil complaints. Anyway, just know that's that.
No, that doesn't make sense. Why restrict us considering the situation?
Inspector. Look outside.
This is a message to the robbers illegally seizing the Mint.
I, Kim Sangman, as a citizen and congressman of the Republic of Korea,
am giving you a strict warning.
During this time of unification
for harmony and growth,
history will not tolerate any more acts of terrorism
that promote violence and conflict.
I demand that all the innocent hostages be sent home to their families.
If any one of you sympathizes with the families gathered here,
then take action.
Any one of the robbers
who bravely help resolve this situation
will be guaranteed full immunity.
As the party's leader, I assure you I will suggest it to the president.
If you are willing to do so, please contact me.
Record it! Quick!
-I will help you. -You can't go in!
Captain Cha, where are you? Kim Sangman stopped the wiretapping.
He's making a broadcast to coax the robbers. Come back quickly.
Shit.
Who'd buy that?
He didn't even give us his number.
You're right.
Maybe they planted something in the hostages' phones.
Whoa, that sounds plausible.
These sons of bitches are clever, huh?
They're idiots.
You're the idiot.
Yeah.
We looked because it was loud outside.
But nobody really cares.
That's why you called?
You're intercepting Cha Moohyuk's calls and texts, right?
Yes, you told me to.
I need you to do something now.
TRUST THE POLICE FOR A SAFE COUNTRY
DETAINEE VISITING ROOM
Are you okay?
About what?
The people on TV.
Weren't they your parents?
-Did the Professor tell you? -No.
Your face says it all.
Why? You worried that I'll betray you?
No.
You said you'd buy an island with the money.
-Where are you going? -The bathroom.
"I'll stay in here!" She deserves an Oscar.
I know. I heard the teacher talking to some of the others.
The policeman looked for her first.
We're trapped here because she's in our class.
Right? Apparently, her dad's connections are powerful.
Ignore them.
Thanks.
By the way, Anne,
we're kind of friends, right?
If the police try to get you out first,
can I go with you?
I really want to go home.
Of course. I can promise that.
But there's something you need to do for us.
I'LL HELP YOU ESCAPE MEET ME IN THE BASEMENT AT 1PM
COME ALONE DON'T BE LATE
"Congressman Kim Sangman to the rescue in place of our incompetent police."
"The true presidential candidate"?
No wonder he was being so irrational.
It was all calculated.
No.
If he's acting that recklessly,
something's definitely up.
-Anything from the Ministry of Finance? -Yes, just now. But…
What'd they say?
The bills have serial numbers according to the annual minting plan.
The robbers can't print or distribute the money easily.
Usually.
"Usually"? There's an exception?
Depending on the summit,
there's an extra amount scheduled to be printed.
But the amount is…
Just how many zeros are there?
I'm saying that the police can't be trusted.
We need to find our way out.
Right, well,
there's nothing we can do.
Wait a minute.
You also knew there would be all this chaos, right?
Why didn't you stop them?
I did. I told them it was dangerous.
But they didn't freaking listen.
Ask that cop if I'm telling the truth or not.
How, Mr. Smart Guy, when I don't know where he's being kept?
What? Hey, Choi.
What'd you say, bastard?
Hey!
What's going on?
It's not just a couple of bucks.
Four trillion won with unknown serial numbers
is allotted for reunification funds,
not distribution.
Those bastards can still print money as they please.
But you knew that. That's why you kept interfering.
You enjoy dragging things out. Just like our divorce, now this.
Thank me later when this ends quickly because of me.
Did any of the robbers contact you after the broadcast?
None of your business. Just go clean up your mess.
We should've bulldozed them down. What's this fuss before the big summit?
Clean up my mess? What do you mean? You know we can't use force.
Why not?
The safety of the hostages?
This is for the US ambassador's daughter!
You told the robbers to sneak Anne out?
What do you think?
Well, it's not like the lazy police will make a move right away.
If not…
No way.
Are you insane? Call it off now!
I'll consider it if you give up custody of Mina.
I need you to connect me to the Professor. Right now.
Why the sudden call?
There have been a few incidents,
but I believe we share one common belief.
Like what?
-That no one should die? -Yes.
Listen carefully.
There's a traitor amongst your robbers.
I don't know who it is,
but he's gonna try to kill Anne.
Shit!
Where is Anne?
Has anyone seen Anne?
Find her.
Damn it. Where did that little brat go?
What? Someone fell for that bullshit broadcast?
That's not what's important. We need to find Anne first.
Stay here and keep an eye on them, okay?
Let's go.
Unbelievable.
It looks like something happened.
Hey, maybe they did something again to get the girl out of here?
Anne's gone missing. Come.
Where'd she go?
Shit.
You guys, be good. All right?
I can't find her. Anything on camera?
Look at this. It's from 20 minutes ago.
They took a bomb from the supply room.
A bomb?
Who the hell is that?
Track their whereabouts.
Wait. Here.
The angle is weird.
Rewind it.
They put a bomb in the vault.
Shit.
-Any news? -No, not yet.
Are you out of your mind? Why'd you tell them that?
Do we just leave her to die?
If she dies, you'd be responsible too.
No!
Damn it.
What was that?
Be quiet!
Did you hear that?
Where's Anne?
-What's up? -Did something happen to Anne?
I don't know! Back to your places!
Go back, quickly!
Anne!
Are you okay?
Anne, where were you?
-Are you okay? -You're not hurt, right?
-What happened? -Are you okay?
Someone gave her a note telling her to come to the vault to escape.
And Helsinki found this in front of the exhibition.
I had my eyes on them
until that one point.
How about the surveillance camera? Find anyone there?
They cleverly used blind spots to escape.
I can't track them.
After all, if it was one of us, they'd know the locations of the cameras.
For fuck's sake!
Who is this bastard?
Don't you know whoever gets worked up is the most suspicious?
What?
Isn't it you?
Enough!
At least nobody died.
Shit.
It was clear that one of us was a traitor.
As our suspicions of each other grew,
the hostages started to band together after Anne's return.
They said they'd let you out alone, but you didn't go?
I did go
because I couldn't be here a second longer.
But it didn't feel right getting out of here alone.
You didn't notice the trap on the way, did you?
Stop it.
I was worried that the people here
would be in danger if I escaped.
I don't know. It was just embarrassing.
Likewise,
I'm also embarrassed.
We should work together, not be divided based on which Korea we're from.
Now's not the time.
The police are more interested in ending the situation than our safety.
The robbers said they'd keep us safe,
but how can we trust them now?
Well, I mean…
Well, what you said is right.
But we can't cause an uprising, can we?
We can't go up against their guns with our bare hands.
Right. Well, at least nobody got hurt. We can take comfort in that.
Let's go.
You must be tired.
Actually, there's another reason why I came back.
I saw where they kept the security guards and the North Korean policeman.
Professor? We detected a quake inside. What happened?
It was nothing.
Anne is safe.
Good.
You sure everything's okay?
Yes. Thanks to you informing me in time.
Can we trust each other now?
Yes.
I mean it.
Isn't it about time you tell me what you're really after?
I've never seen you or heard your real voice,
but personally, Professor,
I'm fond of you.
I think we could have been friends under different circumstances.
Please tell me what you're really after so we don't try to pull any more tricks.
We can prevent the worst
if we start an actual negotiation.
I don't know what you mean.
So, that's how you want to play?
You're not inside the Mint, are you?
We knew that.
You're outside watching and pretending to negotiate,
thinking about stabbing us in the back.
Have you had fun so far?
Stop wasting time and do something about Kim Sangman.
I hate anyone getting between us.
You should know why he keeps getting involved.
I'll ask you again.
This could be the last time,
so you better answer wisely.
What is it…
that you really want?
Let me say it again.
All I'm trying to do is make a fortune
without getting anyone hurt.
Got it.
All right. Let's get to work.
-Start wiretapping them again. -Yes, ma'am.
Wait. We need an order from the top--
-I won't take orders anymore. -What?
They want to end it because of the summit, regardless if someone dies.
Those bastards are printing money.
Four trillion won worth.
That's only possible
because the summit was preparing to issue money under the unification fund.
How'd they find out?
Do they have a political agenda?
We don't know.
But our job is to stop them from taking the money
and safely rescue the hostages.
I will no longer tolerate any interference that prevents us from doing so.
So, what's your plan?
Rescuing the hostages may be difficult…
but stopping them from printing money is easy.
We'll cut off
all electricity.
Did you check everything thoroughly?
The surveillance camera?
Check it yourself if you don't trust me.
When Kim Sangman was spewing nonsense,
your parents were in the crowd of the hostages' families, right?
When were you going to tell us?
Well, that's…
I told him not to.
I didn't want everyone's suspicion fucking things up like this.
That was before there was a traitor amongst us.
Isn't it reasonable suspicion at this point?
It's a good idea, but first,
we need approval since it's a major national facility.
What if the info is leaked to Kim Sangman or the Professor?
Inspector.
When we stopped wiretapping, there was outside contact with a hostage's phone.
It must've been Kim Sangman and the traitor.
Was it a phone call?
No. They were texts.
But they're strange.
KIM SANGMAN IS TRYING TO CONTACT THE ROBBERS. FIND OUT WHAT HE WANTS.
Who's the sender?
It's Captain Cha Moohyuk.
-What? -What's this?
What? You mean he's a mole for the robbers?
Where is he?
At the JEA Police Station.
He's about to be kicked out of the Task Force,
so he's digging for info at the station?
I was busy messing with Cha Moohyuk's phone.
So?
I was planting fake texts the Professor asked me to do.
Plus, I had to stop him from contacting the inspector.
Look at this.
A HOPEFUL FUTURE TOGETHER WITH THE PEOPLE!
KCSI FORENSIC INVESTIGATION
Do you have the forensics?
Sampling is done, but we're still analyzing the pattern now.
Can't you do it quicker? It's urgent.
You've seen too many South Korean dramas.
Results don't just appear right after you put them in the database.
Within similar patterns--
I know what the suspect looks like.
-I just need to see if it's him. -Jeez.
There's a protocol. I can't do that.
Please. Do me a favor.
I'm sorry. I can't.
Hello. Are you Captain Cha Moohyuk from the Ministry of State Security?
Can I help you?
I'm Detective Lee Sungmin from the Security Division of JEA.
What are you doing?
You've been leaking information to the robbers.
We have the evidence.
What?
Open the door!
Open up, Cha Moohyuk!
Open the door!
Open up, asshole!
CAPTAIN CHA CRAFTING KNIFE
Open up, damn it!
-Open it! -Cha Moohyuk!
Open the door, bastard!
Open up!
Come on! Open up!
I gave him a secret order because there could be
a traitor amongst you.
You ordered the traitor
to create a traitor.
Like Rio said, Cha Moohyuk has started to suspect me.
That's funny.
Wanna stop talking shit?
This little brat didn't want to be a doctor,
so he ran away and ended up here.
But as he started getting into it,
the robbery became too hard to handle.
Then he tries hitting on Tokyo, but she's not interested.
Plus, your parents are shown on TV.
Hey, you must have been scared and wanted to run away again.
Am I wrong?
I told you to shut it.
Come on. Rio's the one who helped me open the vault.
He's a man, after all. He didn't wanna see the girl he loves die.
Fuck. You're driving me nuts.
Hey, you don't think you're suspicious? Should we look into everyone's alibis?
That's enough.
Listen up.
It's true there's a traitor amongst us.
We'll have to find him soon.
But if we start suspecting each other because of that one traitor,
the chaos will grow out of control.
For now, I'll let Tokyo handle this, so do as she says.
I need to wrap things up with Cha Moohyuk.
Hey, hold up.
The person you're trying to reach is not available.
Please leave a message after the tone.
Park Sunho is the Professor.
I'll give you the details in person.
I'll head to your house now.
He isn't answering, is he? He's the mole, for sure.
This is crazy.
Ma'am. Captain Cha ran away.
What?
I knew there was something off when he said he used to be a spy.
Wait.
Something's not right.
He told me just yesterday there was someone he suspected.
Why do you think he said that? To avoid any suspicion.
It's obvious.
I plan to track down the Professor.
When did you start seeing that man, Park Sunho?
I
need to go check something.
-Prepare the operation while I'm gone. -Yes, ma'am.
Dining staff. Get over here now!
Um…
What is it? You're not on cooking duty.
One of the staff asked me to fill in for her because she's not feeling well.
I keep having weird thoughts just sitting and doing nothing.
All right.
Move.
Son of a bitch.
If she told her daughter about what she saw,
everything would be over.
No matter how much he thought about it, there was only one solution.
Hello? Woojin?
Mom, what is it?
Mom.
Mom?
Yes?
Who is this?
Mom!
Yes. Is it you, Woojin?
Did I call you?
I didn't forget the pills.
I didn't know your mother was sick. What's her illness?
Just aging, you know.
Thanks to my wandering mind,
I get to hear my busy daughter's voice.
I'm okay. Don't overwork yourself.
It was sheer luck.
However, the Professor realized when he couldn't shoot Woojin's mother
that his feelings for Woojin might completely ruin the plan.
CHARGING STATION
Are you spacing out again?
Well…
Dad,
if one of us was a traitor, who do you think it'd be?
Is this about what happened earlier?
Nairobi was too busy running the machines.
Helsinki and Oslo are too fat
and must have been busy guarding the hostages.
Damn it. Who could it be?
Stop with the nonsense and guard those guys well.
I don't know what it is, but they seem distracted.
Now's our chance.
You should just rest.
I'm fine.
So, where's this food going?
They're for the guards, so add some more.
Oslo will take them.
We found their location, thanks to Anne. We have to take the chance.
Say we get in contact with the guards or the police. Then what?
Do you really have to take a dump?
If you're just slacking off, I'll kill you this time.
It's because I have irritable bowel syndrome.
Really.
Jeez, disgusting bastard.
You need to do your job right this time, Director.
Man, this is killing me.
The traitor was caught on video at this time.
Rio, you weren't in the director's office, then.
Don't you ever take a piss or shit?
Look at this.
Oslo also goes back and forth between the hall and the basement.
Fuck. What about Denver and Nairobi?
We're not machines. We're people.
So, we can't step out once in a while?
Rio's right, so calm down and--
Think about it this way.
Let's say this bastard was watching everyone,
and as soon as some were gone, he sneaked out like a rat.
Plus, he's the one who knows the Mint's blind spots the best.
Seriously?
Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?
I just wanted to see you.
Where were you? Closing the café?
Something urgent came up.
"Something urgent"?
Which was?
What's wrong?
What happened?
I was thinking about it,
and you know quite a lot about me…
but I don't really know you.
You don't usually talk about yourself, do you?
Let's go inside first.
Woojin.
Don't move.
Don't ask any questions and go upstairs.
Could you at least tell me why--
Why did you approach me
two months ago?
What do you mean, "why"?
Forget it. Go upstairs. Now!
Open it.
Do you really need to do all this?
I need to know what you're hiding.
Open it now!
Are you happy now?
I'm sorry.
Actually…
One of my colleagues
is suspected of leaking official secrets.
But he's a trustworthy man.
And the last thing he told me
was about you, so I--
So, I'm someone you can suspect?
Am I someone you can do this to?
No, it's not--
Woojin, let's just
end things with us.
-Sunho. -Please leave.
Go!
You know the way out.
The Professor had already decided
to end the relationship before she came.
But he didn't expect it to break his heart like this.
After getting rid of Cha Moohyuk, she became more crucial to our operation…
PARK SUNHO
but the Professor concluded that she'd gradually become his weakness.
NAM DONGCHUL
As a result, he had to pay a horrifying price.
Yes.
We're ready, ma'am.
Okay.
Stop pissing me off! I said it's not me!
Rio.
What? You don't trust me either?
I trust you.
Then why are you letting that maniac frame me?
You should calm down.
This is exactly what they want.
"Calm down"?
Calm down, my ass.
Rio.
Let go of me.
They say the guilty ones always put on a big show.
Jeez.
Nairobi, glad you're here.
What's up?
We don't know about your family history,
but let's imagine that your parents were on TV.
How would you feel?
Well,
money's more important to me.
And I don't have a family missing me.
Right. We came all the way here, risking our lives to make money.
Fuck both of you.
You foul-mouthed son of a bitch.
Think about it.
You're the only one who doesn't need money
and has a family to go back to.
To be honest,
I got choked up when I saw my dad's face.
Because the dad I knew would never do that even if someone asked him to.
But what?
You think I'd betray my colleagues and kill Anne?
Fuck, I'd rather get myself killed!
I'm done with this shit!
Then stop bluffing and just die.
Quit it, Berlin.
Man.
Those folks upstairs get rowdy over the smallest things.
They'll come to a conclusion soon.
We need to focus on our job.
You're right.
I'll bring water to the guys locked up in the basement.
I guess they ran out already.
Hey, just do it tomorrow.
What if they pee in the middle of the night.
They're trapped in a tiny space, so I feel bad for them.
-Jeez. -Be right back.
He's too soft to be a robber.
What the…
No!
Drop the gun.
Rio, you can still tell the truth.
If you don't, Tokyo will die instead of you.
It's ready.
Task Force, listen up.
As of now, we will cut off all electricity
at the Mint.
You piece of…
