(Episode 5)
I'm Officer Mu Gunghwa from Chamsuri Station.
You made an illegal u-turn at the intersection.
Your driver's license, please.
- Oh? / - Oh?
Who do we have here?
So you really are a cop.
You look hot in that uniform.
I'm really sorry about the other night.
If you are, then let me off on this one.
I can't do that...
Inspector Cha told me
you won't be pressing charges.
Me? Did I?
Anyway,
so your inspector's back there?
Yes.
May I see your license?
A $60 fine and 15-point penalty for
violating Article 25 of the Road Traffic Act.
I'm sorry.
I'd really like to turn a blind eye,
but I can't as I'm on duty right now.
Then make it up to me later.
Pardon?
I'll expect you to repay me later.
I'm off then. Bye.
But...
Why are you staring at me?
You're awful at thinking on your feet.
But he...
I'm sorry, sir.
You know how it is.
Most people try to fight traffic tickets.
Our shift's almost up, so should we head back?
Will you take this? I'll take these.
Thank you.
Let's go.
Hang on.
They say an untied shoe is good luck.
I made it nice and tight.
Let's hit this out of the ballpark.
- Go, go. / - Go, go.
Geez. Is she smitten with me?
We'll make stir-fried glass noodles
using a multi-purpose cooker.
First, I soaked the wood ear mushroom
in water and then lightly sauteed it on a pan.
Carrots were julienned, seasoned with
with salt and pepper
and then lightly sauteed.
We'll be sauteing the onions,
but before that, let me show you
how to prepare the spinach.
All you have to do
is separate the leaves, but
the tip here is that
with pieces are that too big like these,
snap off the stem like this
to make them look nicer and easier to eat.
Will you come help me with this?
Yes.
He's my trusted assistant.
He's been helping me out a lot.
The tip here is to lightly oil a heated pan
and cook it very quickly.
The onions...
Hello.
I knew it.
Are you out to ruin my business?
What's the matter?
I paid you enough for an expert.
How can you use a rookie like her?
You'll change your mind once see you the footage.
Never mind. Let's call it quits.
I'll find another agency, and that's that.
What exactly do you not like?
We did everything you asked of us
but you keep complaining.
Son Juyeong, zip it.
What do I not like?
Everything. I don't like a thing.
You can just tell
it's an amateur job with a dinky camera.
Give me the camera.
Take a look at this.
I was going to tell you later, but
I'll be posting
this video on various social media platforms.
Once word gets out, you'll hit the jackpot.
Please trust me.
How will we turn a profit then?
But we'll go with what we shot today.
Go for it then.
But I won't pay the remaining balance.
But, sir.
Think about it and call me.
Dohyeon, you said you'd give me
anything but what you can't for my birthday, right?
What is it? Tell me.
Just make one phone call.
Suhyeok, what's the plan?
What we shot today was great. We must go with that.
Bora, thank you for your hard work.
Sure. You both worked hard too.
It won't even pay for our labor cost.
Yes, sir.
No.
You'll pay the remaining balance?
Thank you. We'll proceed then.
What? President Gu will pay?
Yes. We got the green light.
Yes!
- Thank you for your hard work. / - Be well.
- Take care. / - You too. Keep up the good work.
A folding umbrella in a paper bag...
How modest your life is, Cha Sangcheol.
Jin Daegap, you scoundrel!
You marauding thief!
You lunatic scumbag.
How dare you?
Hey, you nut job,
don't you know who I am?
Why you...
What is this? Let go!
Please stop.
If you don't let go, I'll beat you.
Let go.
This man is drunk.
If you're not hurt, let him go.
Or call the police.
You shouldn't resort to violence.
Are you okay?
Can you walk?
What are you doing?
Organizing Haechan's cram school schedule.
Monday, Wednesday, Friday, this math class.
For Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday,
would this English class do?
It won't be easy to schedule this.
Why are you doing that? Have Haechan do it.
He doesn't have time to worry about this.
I need to do it.
Huijin.
Please let's live within our means, not overshoot.
We must send him to cram school if nothing else.
What are you talking about?
We've been living on credit for a long time.
Soon our life will be in the gutter.
It doesn't matter.
If putting my life in the gutter
gives Haechan a better life,
I'll be happy with that.
When I talk to you,
you make me feel like a bad dad.
But it's true.
What?
Leave me alone. I must organize the schedule.
I heard Haechan's doing high school math
when he's only in middle school.
Don't get me started.
I asked a mom whose kid got into
Seoul National from a public high school,
and the kid did high school math in primary.
You must revise English grammar material
5 times to raise your GPA.
5 times? Are you out of your mind?
The kid's not a machine, you know?
Geez.
I heard at the internet cafe yesterday that
a used cell phone fetches you $300.
I saw a cell phone in
the trashcan at the sauna the other day.
I should've sold that.
You'll get into trouble if you get caught.
Did I say I was going to steal a phone?
Should I sell this since I have no money?
Stop your nonsense. Let's go to the internet cafe.
But your mom's coming.
It's fine.
Why should my age matter when I look
this good with nothing but lipstick on my face?
Waitressing or whatever else,
I must go for it as I'm desperate.
I should get changed.
(Power Off)
Hey.
Hey, kid!
Hey!
Thief! Catch that thief!
Stop right there!
I told you stop!
I'll go, sir.
This is Cham 1, theft on Ilwol-ro 3-gil.
We're on it.
This is Cham 2, we'll join you there.
Roger that. Cham 1 will block his retreat.
Hey, run.
Come here.
Get up.
You're under arrest.
You have the right to remain silent
and the right to counsel.
1, 2, 3!
You're under arrest.
You have the right to remain silent
and the right to counsel.
Get out.
I'm sorry. I let my guard down.
You little twerps.
You should be studying, not causing trouble.
Inspector Cha, make sure they learn their lesson.
Why did you do it?
You were caught in the act.
You won't get off unless the victim settles.
I didn't steal it.
I found it.
Then why did you run?
I panicked when the man started chasing me.
I swear. Check the security cameras.
Kids these days just don't get scared.
You don't say.
When we were little, we'd cry
if we had to come to a police station, right?
Look at them.
They're not nervous at all.
You little twerps.
What did we do?
This won't do. You rascals.
Give me your parents' phone numbers.
Please don't let our parents know.
It's all my fault.
I'll do whatever you say. Please.
Hey, what did we do wrong?
Officer Mu, collect security camera footage from
the area and ID the victim.
Yes, sir.
I'll wait a bit for someone to call.
It's off. It must be out of battery.
The power came on.
But the victim must not know yet.
No missed calls.
The owner will probably call soon.
Yes, hello?
Hello?
Who am I speaking to?
That's my cell phone.
I lost it not long ago.
Are you the owner of this phone?
I'm Officer Mu Gunghwa at Chamsuri Police Station.
Police station?
What's my phone doing there?
Yes, yes.
Right. The bus stop at the intersection.
I had it in my hand before I got on the bus.
I see.
You have to come to the station.
Yes.
Press charges?
Ma'am, we're not sure yet though.
We're still investigating.
And they're teens, middle school students no less.
Many kids do it out of curiosity.
Please come to pick up your phone, and perhaps
we should let them go with a warning.
If you press charges,
you must come here to file a report.
Please come here first.
Yes, okay.
She'll be here soon to pick up the phone.
Go check the security camera footage.
Yes, sir.
Call your parents and have them come here.
I can't call my parents.
Please spare us just this once.
Call, both of you.
Oh, wow, What's gotten into you
to call me without being forced to?
What?
Okay.
I'll be right there.
Just hang tight and don't worry about a thing.
What now? She's making me nervous.
I came for my cell phone.
Take her inside.
Yes, sir. This way, ma'am.
Was it them?
Yes.
They're little kids. Good grief.
Is this it?
Yes, it is. It's mine.
See? It's me.
Oh, right.
But ma'am,
we're still required to verify who you are.
May I see your ID, please?
But it's mine. Why must you see my ID?
Look at the picture. This is mine.
But we can't give it to you without an ID check.
That's ridiculous.
It's the protocol.
If you didn't bring your ID,
we can look you up in our database.
Thank you.
You are indeed Ms. Oh Chullae.
All set, right?
But...
You said on the phone you wanted to press charges.
I did. What about it?
If you press charges,
we must take your statement, and
your phone will be held as evidence
until the prosecutor releases it.
You'll hold my phone? But it's mine.
That's the law.
You must retrieve it at the prosecutor's office.
The prosecutor's office?
You mean I have to go all the way there?
- Haechan. / - Mom.
Taejin, what happened to Haechan?
Are you Kang Haechan's mother?
What did Haechan do wrong?
Sis, come here.
Sis?
So Inspector Cha's the uncle and
Kang Haechan's his nephew?
- He arrested his nephew? / - Yes.
Unbelievable.
What's the big deal?
One of the kids is his nephew.
Inspector Cha's the uncle.
What's going on here?
He made me investigate Kang Haechan
because he shouldn't as his uncle?
That's Cha Taejin for you.
He refuses to bend the law for anyone or anything.
That's right.
He'd even arrest me if he had to.
Is the lady that just walked in
one of the parents?
Yes.
Oh...
You call yourself Haechan's uncle?
Don't you know Haechan better?
Would our son, your nephew,
go around stealing other people's things?
Calm down and sit.
How can I calm down?
Release Haechan this instant.
Cha Taejin.
I'll sue you for defamation.
I told you to sit.
Forget about it.
I'm taking my son home, and that's final.
You can't do that yet.
Thefts are penalized even with a settlement.
Penalized?
Unless the victim agrees to settle
or forgive before the prosecutor takes over.
He can't be released unless the victim forgives him.
How could you...
Inspector Cha,
the victim said since she got
her phone, we can release them with a warning.
Thank you.
The kids were just fooling around.
Of course. They don't know any better.
I'm a mother raising kids too.
They can just write an apology or something.
They didn't commit a mortal sin, so
why would I press charges?
It's fine. I'm not that kind of person.
Hear that? All set, right?
She said to release them with a warning.
Ma'am, are you sure
you want them released with only a warning?
Of course.
I'm fine since I got my phone back.
Very well then.
Ma'am, you may go now.
Pardon?
Okay.
Bring the security footage to the interrogation room.
Yes, sir.
He didn't steal it. He merely found it.
You were going to find the owner, right?
Pardon?
Yes.
Are you sure about that?
Do you really have nothing to hide?
You probably didn't set out to steal.
But...
You looked around as you picked it up and
turned it off before putting it in your pocket,
meaning you decided to keep it.
That's why you ran when the man yelled "thief."
Tell him it's not true.
You didn't do it. You didn't steal it.
Kang Haechan, if you really trust your friend,
why'd you take the phone he threw at you and run?
Is that your friendship?
Covering for each other's wrongdoing?
No. He's not like that.
At that moment, you did suspect
your friend of stealing, didn't you?
Like I said, if you deny it,
then this whole thing goes away.
But if you deceive your conscience,
you might feel ashamed about this for life.
Hey, what are you doing?
Why harass these innocent kids?
Yes, I did it.
I did try
to make away with that phone.
But
I didn't mean to do it from the start.
I swear.
We all slip up and make mistakes.
But when you do, admitting it
and asking for forgiveness is a form of courage.
Don't do anything that'll weigh on your conscience.
I won't.
Kang Haechan, you think about what
being a true friend means.
You're so weird.
Did you have to take it this far?
Are you happy now?
Mom, it's okay.
Uncle Taejin, I'm sorry I was defiant earlier.
Why did you run?
It wouldn't have come to this if you didn't.
He probably wanted to protect his friend.
That's right.
Uncle Taejin, instinct told me to run.
Could this be how criminals think?
Stop talking nonsense.
You're no criminal.
I'll be seeing you at home later. Got it?
Uri.
Uncle Suhyeok.
Here. I got you some snacks.
Uncle Suhyeok, thank you.
You need to eat, right?
I already ate, mom.
I'm going to wash up.
My daughter's doing night shifts
every other day to make money while
my son works so hard.
So can I sit around here doing nothing, Uri?
But your job is to take care of me.
Mom said that's the toughest job in the world.
She did?
I suppose that's true,
but I should make money.
Let's see. Let's see.
All I do is spend the money they make.
I need to do something.
I might fall ill if I think
about the money I lost.
You make my life worthwhile, Uri.
You have one too. Here.
Is the tingling really bad?
I must have overstrained myself.
This feels good though.
Is this why they say mom's hands cure all?
But why does your arm keep tingling?
Let's go see a doctor.
You can get tests done.
That's okay. I'm fine. I swear.
You're back.
Why are you two coming together?
Just bring me a glass of cold water!
What's up with dad?
Some crazy nut job
swung a golf club at him.
He'll be very sorry if I catch him.
What in the world?
He's not hurt?
No, thankfully.
Hey, what was that call earlier?
How do you know the kitchen goods brand CEO?
Oh, thing is...
I used the company's products and liked them.
Just consider it a good deed.
Are you kidding me?
This was another act of charity of yours, right?
Shh. Don't take issue with my birthday gift.
What happened? Was it something bad?
Why are you pestering me with your questions?
Stay out of what a man does outside the house.
What in the world happened?
Some lunatic got drunk in the middle of the day
and swung a golf club at me.
What?
They borrow my money and then call me a thief.
They're the thieves for not repaying me.
Why am I a thief? What a nutcase.
So are you okay?
Shouldn't you see a doctor?
I'm fine. I'm in tiptop form.
They're usually too intimidated
to even make eye contact with me,
but in goes the alcohol and
this one turned into a rabid dog!
Calm down. Calm down.
What if you collapse again?
Man, my blood pressure.
Massage me here.
It's beyond stiff. It's like concrete.
Why don't I take you to the doctor's right now?
I'm fine. I'm fine.
Geez, Jin Daegap's lost his fierceness.
If it hadn't for that guy,
that wacko would've gotten it from me.
But he looked familiar.
Who?
Just someone worth hiring.
Did you talk the victim out of pressing charges?
Why did she suddenly change her mind?
She was so adamant about pressing charges
that I told her...
They were kids and first-time offenders.
Plus, one of them was your nephew.
They deserve one pardon
as they're still so young.
Why do you decide
if they should be pardoned or not?
Excuse me?
Stop dragging in cheap sympathy and emotions.
It becomes habit, and habits are hard to break!
And victims also have the right to not forgive.
Don't press them to forgive.
We're not Robocop.
We can intervene depending on the situation.
And it's a good thing if that reduces felons.
I think understanding
and engagement come before penalization.
So do you think
you made a good judgment call today?
I'm not sure.
Mu Gunghwa, outside.
Why's he being like that?
Why do you think?
He's instilling discipline.
You should be grateful for your partner.
Inspector Cha looked very serious.
Won't something terrible befall my friend?
She'll be half broken.
She lacks discipline.
How dare a rookie cop talk back at
an inspector of the Korean police force?
Handcuffs, back or front?
Standard rule is behind the back, sir.
But I thought front of the body was fine today.
No risk of flight because he was a student?
I'm sorry.
Follow the manual instead of
trying to make a statement.
Why didn't you tell me then to follow the manual?
Excuse me?
You should've pointed out the cuffing issue then.
Aren't you taking
an issue with it now due to our disagreement?
What good is catching suspects
if they flee because you can't cuff them properly?
100 minus 1 is not 99
but 0. It becomes 0.
It becomes nil, okay?
Fine.
I made a mistake.
But aren't you being
too hard on me over a single mistake?
Your motto is apparently "fairness."
Have you assessed your subordinate fairly?
A single mistake? Just one?
First, you ignored
partnership on the motorcycle theft case.
Second,
you were careless and got assaulted.
Third, you were negligent while undercover.
Fourth, you messed up the police trap.
And fifth,
you sided with the offenders and
pressured the victim to go easy on them.
Do you have anything to say?
If you keep this up despite my warning,
you'll end up leaving the police force.
Don't forget that.
Who'll make me?
Are you saying you will?
Not at all. You'll leave on your own.
This isn't a job for emotional, impulsive people.
They'll never become good police officers.
That's ridiculous.
"Not at all" is what I should say to you.
I will never leave the force.
Isn't this...
What you're doing here, a form of tyranny?
What?
I say you are not a fair person.
I wager this, Mu Gunghwa,
my name.
Fine.
I say you'll resign within 6 months.
And I wager this.
Deal!
