Episode1
I want to show you all now the Center of Jiuma
my prized possession.
Three...
Don't touch her, she's mine.
C'mon, Candy, show 'em a good time, huh? Yeah! Be nice to our guests.
Today's our celebration!
Hey! What's up?!
What are you waiting for? Go!
Okay, wait, wait, easy, easy! Okay.
Take it easy, man. Take it easy.
[Fugitive, Plan B]
In Ancient Greece,
there was a monk named Tolotos.
His mother died as he was born, and the very next day,
he was whisked away and kept in a monastery on top of Mount Athos.
That monastery did not allow even female animals to enter.
So, of course it goes without saying that women were also prohibited.
From what I know, the only man in the world
that never once laid eyes on a woman
was Tolotos.
That man was probably the only man ever.
In this world,
even where there is such a magnificent man on the one side,
there is also a man that is the complete opposite.
Honey, I really couldn't do that! I love you.
Never mind.
No, you really have to realize it.
If you want me to give up anything, I can give it all up!
Then, give it up. Do you like women that much?
Well, I do think I'll have to think about it.
Honey, I love you.
How should I put it?
A scavenger feeding off rotting remains,
slinking along,
a hyena in heat, should I say?
You're really bold.
How can you make it so obvious that you're looking?
I wasn't looking, I just saw.
Never mind.
There's a huge difference between looking and seeing.
You can sneak a look, but you can't sneak a see.
I said never mind.
Hae Won!
Sit.
If we get married, I'll live with my eyes closed.
Really. Huh? Sit.
Huh? Sit.
Here.
What does this mean?
Let's get married.
I'll only look at you, honey.
I'll even go to church.
- What about early morning service? - Oh, Hallelujah!
Of course, I must go.
- What about women? - Who? Young Shil? Tai? Mary?
- Jung Ah. - I'd need to see her to finish it off.
So you're saying you're going to keep seeing her?
I'm saying I haven't been seeing her.
Honey?
I really don't know about a guy like you.
I love my honey.
Honey!
Loan me some money.
How much, how much?
300 million won.
Aigoo, bold little ***.
Oh, I'm so pissed.
Oh, I stepped in crap!
Hey!
Oh no, not the ring! Oh!
Oh, my ring. It was so expensive. Where is it? Oh!
That's the kind of *** he is.
He's extremely fast.
There's no way to shake him.
That's why after me, he's Asia's top private investigator. (Private investigations and investigators are illegal in Korea.)
That's how he rates.
And you're going to catch him?
Tell me
who, when, with what, where, how, and why catch him?
I don't know all that well since I learned it 20 years ago.
But, this,
I packed 20 minutes ago so I know real well.
If you do this,
the Japanese police will get completely angry.
It looks like I'm bleeding.
Guns, you see, are not for hitting, but for shooting.
Hey, bring some iodine! Quickly!
Here.
There was an alter portrait of Buddha,
but someone took the entire portion of wall here, as if it would amount to some money.
What's the market value for something like this?
It couldn't be valued much in price.
My path crossed with a French Monk when I was studying in the US,
and he painted it himself.
It's the relationship that I treasure.
So, I'm asking, how much is that relationship worth...
Can one put a price tag on human relationships?
About 5 million won, maybe?
You know how the police
don't really make much of an effort when someone reports being
cheated out of 5 million?
And so, that's probably why you contacted me.
Have you considered the commission?
It's just that it's so precious to me.
I also took precious time out of my schedule to come here.
Maybe around 1 million won?
Oh, look at that!
The temple's looking really great, Seunim. (Seunim: way to address a Buddhist monk/priest)
It's all the blessings of Buddha.
Om mani padme hung. (Mantra of Avalokitesvara)
You said the monk passed away, yes?
Yes.
So, I can't ask him to paint it again.
An opportunity is a "chance", isn't it, Seunim?
Why don't you take this chance to raise the price a little?
Excuse me?
If you say that he became enlightened
through this painting and attained nirvana...
But, he just died an old man.
Art becomes more highly valued when the artist passes away.
- You know the Louvre, right? - Ah, yes.
There are no pieces of work by anyone living in there.
Their general principle is to display works by artists that have
been dead over 60 years.
Well, that's probably because they carry that much value.
Do you know how much the Olympic gold medal won by Kim Yu-na is worth?
The cost to production is $500. 600,000 won.
But because it's around Kim Yu-na's neck, it's worth 1, 10 billion won.
That's what value is all about. It gets created.
The missing portrait, I'll make it worth at least 500 million rather than 5 million.
We'll raise the commission to 100 million, and get it designated as a cultural asset.
Oh Hallelujah.
Yeah, it's me.
Gather up the reporters for this evening,
and arrange a golf outing with the Minister of Culture.
Yeah, okay.
Seunim?
You know "made", right? Well-made.
Would it be that easy to get designated a cultural asset?
The word "death" appears in the bible 370 times.
The word "love" appears in the bible 306 times.
Do you know what word appears the most after that?
I've been meaning to read the bible, but as of yet...
It's faith. "Faith"
Altogether, 246 times.
Have faith, Seunim, and decide.
Will you invest 1 million won and pick up 5 million?
Or will you invest 100 million and pick up 500 million?
What are you so conflicted about?
The Buddha portrait painted by the French monk.
The only one of its kind in the world.
Bravo.
There's another one, in Thailand.
Excuse me?
Couldn't you just find it for me for 1 million?
Why'd he paint so many?
What's the name of the temple in Thailand?
Now tell me...
What product? And don't beat
It's "What product?"
- How much is the case worth? - Hyungnim, I came here on vacation.
A guy on vacation is looking for a liquid nitrogen?
Nothing bad will happen to you. Give it to me.
Pay first.
The merchandise first.
- Forget it if you don't want it. - Damn, you're money crazy.
Here, catch!
It feels
light.
Hyungnim, you're a phantom.
Give me the merchandise.
- Okay. - Okay.
I don't know what your plan is,
but don't do it.
That's a place where you could get your bones buried.
Bingo.
Are you a thief?
Mulaemuilmul. (In essence, possessions do not exist so we shall cling to nothing.)
Could there be a separate yours and mine?
He's a thief! A thief!
You're dead.
3 go!
Shodang.
How could you get call shodang there! (shodang: go-stop term)
Then, it should have been kwang bak! (kwang-bak: go-stop term)
Sorry, sorry. Wait, wait here.
Hyungnim!
Turn on the engine!
Hurry!
Hey Ji Woo.
Turn on the engine, the engine!
- Hey pal! - Turn on the engine, damn it!
What are you doing?!
Hey Ji Woo, Ji Woo!
- Ji Woo! Ji Woo! - Ji Woo!
- Ji Woo! Ji Woo! - Hey man!
Ji Woo!
Ji Woo!
The painting that was in Thailand
isn't there anymore.
- Excuse me? - I'm saying that now there is only one.
It's only a matter of time before it
becomes designated a national cultural asset.
Then, can you even find it?
Please make the deposit.
The world has really become much more convenient.
To think we can do this without stepping into a bank.
The human greed has no end,
so skill develop endlessly as well.
Now then, how long will it take to find?
We've already found it.
The thief is in here.
In this room?
No.
In this temple.
Early in the morning on the day the portrait disappeared,
Humidity was 4%, Temperature was 26 degrees.
The thieves brought a truck,
and left tire tracks.
When you look at the tire marks,
it shows that the thieves drove a truck from here.
In order to cut out cement quietly,
they used a water jet cutter.
The noise is at 48 decibels.
If you were deeply asleep, I suppose you might not have known.
As reference, refrigerator noise is at 40 decibels.
However, the thieves did not take the portrait.
With the addition of the portrait, the truck would have weighed 1.4 tons,
The tire imprints should have been deeper,
but they were the same.
Bingo
There was no difference in the weight going up or coming down.
Then, where...
Since people were moving it by hand, it must be close by.
This is just a storage room.
Shall I open it?
What? What kind of situation is this?
A successfully found situation.
It's one of 2 things.
They either left it here to take it away later,
or someone wanted to test my skills.
Oh my god!
Mano Kwan Se Eum Bosal (I bow to Avalokitesvara, Bodhisattva of compassion)
Then, who's the thief? You said they were in the temple.
Do you want to know?
We'll need to catch them.
If you add a little to the fee, I can catch them for you.
Do you charge a commission for every request?
Because I'm a private investigator.
Sir.
What do you think? Is he usable?
I don't know if he's usable, but he's worth watching.
He seemed to be a sentient being that used his head well.
He's got a good head,
but he doesn't seem to have a soul. The way I see him, anyway.
That's why he's a sentient being.
A temporary existence of the transmigrating universal soul.
Is that the a teaching of Buddha?
Of course. You think it was Jesus?
Must you take revenge?
Grandfather, Grandmother,
Dad, Mom,
even my adoptive parents, the *** killed them all.
It's my turn now.
Are you afraid of death?
I'm afraid of living as well.
Life is the appearance of a cloud as it passes over,
and death is the disappearance of a cloud after it passes over.
So, life and death are nothing at all.
How can they be nothing?
A person living or dying.
How about adopting a faith?
I don't want to hide behind religion.
I'll go now, Seunim.
- Oh my god! What happened here? - Make way, make way!
Folks, there's been an accident. Stay calm.
- Call an ambulance. - Yeah, all right. Take care of it.
Grandfather.
Grandmother.
Grandfather.
Grandmother.
Mom. Dad.
Mom. Dad.
Mom! Dad!
Mom.
Dad.
Even my adoptive parents.
The *** killed them all.
Now,
it's my turn.
Hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Whoa!
Hey, hey, hey!
The new Team Leader comes today,
so prepare the briefing.
Ay, why are you doing this?
What's up with you? So creepy.
No one new is coming.
We all know that you're going to get promoted, squad leader.
Huh? Huh? Huh?
Stop talking nonsense. Nothing's been decided yet. Here.
Hyungnim, who else would get promoted other than you?
You’re the best in our department!
Not just that, he's the best in the force.
Listen to you! Why's you're scale so small?
Officer Kim.
Yes?
Did you put together a suspect list for the Thailand Buddha portrait case?
Ah, I'm sorry.
- Officer Lee. - Yes?
Did you make a request into the intelligence department to view the correspondence?
I'm sorry.
Officer Park.
Of course I'll have to.
Ah, I'll work on the briefing.
Where's officer Yoon?!
A pickpocket!
He's a pickpocket.
Ahjussi, stay calm!
What time is it? What time is it?
- Congratulations, Team Leader. - Lead us well.
You know, I knew this would happen long ago.
- Whoa... - Congratulations.
Things are going well. Huh?
Hurry up. He's been promoted.
Congratulations on your promotion.
Congratulations on your promotion.
It appears my father pulled some strings.
Ahhh, and I told him not to.
Boy, my father sure doesn't listen.
What are you talking about?
You just earned it, pal.
True, I suppose having backing is also a skill.
Right, Hyungnim?
Hey. You're Team Leader starting today. That's no way to address me.
Just speak comfortably.
Shall I?
Why not?
What is this?
Oppa, were you passed over?
Sunbae!
Did you really use backing?
What's your father's phone number?
Quiet!
If you're late one more time, watch out!
What?
What are you doing?
Prepare the briefing.
What?
You told me to speak comfortably.
Name, Ji Woo.
1 year and 3 months ago, in a Las Vegas hotel,
an Asian couple were found dead, and he solved the case.
After that, Ji Woo became famous as a Private investigator in the US.
The $300,000 he received at the time
he was planning to share with his colleague Kevin.
But after a few days, Kevin died in a fire at a pub.
While gathering evidence Ji Woo killed his partner to keep the money all to himself...
He got away.
And so as I chased him to the Philippines...
You got shot.
You, ***.
I don't know why you let a guy you just handcuffed take your gun.
Geez.
Keep going!
While investigating his call patterns,
we found a member of his organization.
Who is he?
We know him as Jang Sa Boo,
operating in China, providing intelligence for Ji Woo.
Currently, we're monitoring Jang Sa Boo's phone correspondences,
and the moment he connects with Ji Woo, finding Ji Woo's location is possible.
Is possible? Is that the end?
It's possible, sir.
What about the intelligence department? Did you work it out with them?
Yes.
There's a lot I don't know.
At the time, you
were my junior, sir.
Fine. Since our reputation is at stake in this case,
you know that right?
Everyone act in accordance, hmm?
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Don't be too obsessed with results.
Be mindful of our reputation, keep up our reputation.
A suit with tennis shoes.
What's that about?
It's not like you're a gangster. Tch.
Aigoo.
You're wearing a bulletproof vest, right?
Did you put on sunscreen?
You're face will burn.
Is it coffee?
Drink it and cool your temper a bit.
Ah, hot.
Ah, I'm sorry.
Are you all right?
It's hot.
Recording devices such as phones,
digital cameras and camcorders are not allowed, ma'am.
For the sake of safety,
guns, explosive, knives, and other weapons are also prohibited, ma'am.
From the Asia Pacific Branch of the
International Association of Professional Investigators,
I'm Republic of Korea's Director Ji Woo.
Should I be calling you Director, Mr. Private Investigator?
Of course, in Korea, we can't use the term Private Investigator.
- Because that would be illegal. - Then, how shall I address you?
I manage private investigation intelligence, a Private Investigation Administrator.
We normally refer to it as PIA around here.
Should I think of this as a kind of private detective agency? (small firms that spy on cheating spouses and track down debts)
The difference between us and a private detective agency
is like the difference between a fighter plane and paper plane.
We both fly,
but the performance is different.
Price, speed, flight distance.
And power.
Do you only deal with legitimate lawful cases?
Ahh...
Guns are illegal, of course.
Misser Nakamura Hwan.
Mister Nakamura Hwan.
Mister Hwan! Mister Hwan.
Hwang.
Misser Nakamura Hwan. (name is a tongue twister in Korean)
Misser Nakamura Hwan.
Ahhh, dang it!
Misser Hwan.
What types of work do you normally do?
Are you asking because you don't know or just to confirm what you do know?
I don't know, so I wanted to confirm.
International collaborative retaining service,
highway connection service, VIP service.
These 3 types.
Do you also find people?
[If it's possible, we do it. ]
The person you're looking for is...
About how long does it normally take for you to find someone?
That depends.
We are always so busy.
I'm sorry to disturb your consultation.
Misser Nakamuro Han
has called.
Tell him I'll him back.
James from Thailand is urgently looking for you.
Tell him I'll call him.
- The lady Kieko... - What?! What? What?!
Kieko...
The lady Kieko is holding on the line for you.
Tell her I love her.
Yes, Director.
I'm sorry.
Where were we?
I asked how long it would take.
As you can see, we have quite a few things to wrap up.
I'll give you 1 hundred million.
Come this way.
And let me take your bag.
This is our VIP room.
Ah, this is making me crazy!
Mr. Hwang.
Oh? Mr. Hwang.
Why can't I say it?!
Oh, *** me off!
The name of the person you're looking for?
- Melchidec. - Ah, Melchidec.
Melchidec?
And?
What?
Ay, you need to tell us all you know.
I only know his name.
But, how do you expect to find someone with just a name?
- You can't find him? - We can find him!
Of course we have to find him.
I can't give you a lot of time.
Well, we like when we're given a lot of money,
but we don't particularly like being given a lot of time.
Fine.
How shall I contact you?
Ah.
Is this a phone number?
It's an account number.
When you make a deposit, we'll call you.
Without any contact information, how do you expect me to trust you to make a deposit?
The word "death" appears in the bible 370 times.
The word "love" appears in the bible 306 times.
Do you know what word appears the most after that?
Faith.
I hear it appears altogether 246 times.
If you find a clue, give me a call.
Then, I'll send an initial deposit of half.
I'm sorry I keep messing up my pronunciation.
For sure she said she heard.
Faith. I hear it appears altogether 246 times.
She said "I hear it appears".
That means she heard it from someone.
Who did?
Oh, I stepped in crap!
Hey!
Oh no, not the ring! Oh!
Oh, my ring. It was so expensive. Where is it?
Oh!
Bingo.
Attention!
Jae Hoon, fingerprints!
There are no fingerprints.
What?
Manager Kim! The phone.
If I examine the call records,
I can tell right away if she's really a client or from another organization.
Do it.
Oh, that's strange.
There's no record of any calls.
How interesting, this woman.
Huh?
What is this?
Isn't this Kevin's picture?
You think she put this in here intentionally for us to see? Huh?
What is this, did she know we were going to check out her stuff or what?
[Las Vegas *** Case Solved]
You have that thing when you're in pictures.
It's not a smile, but it's not like it isn't a smile.
That is precisely a Mona Lisa smile.
That's why it looks awkward.
Look closely at Mona Lisa. How awkward she looks.
This face... makes all the women faint.
You think that works?
This is the formula for a smile that makes women faint.
Genuineness.
Ahh geez.
If that smile works on the mainland, I'll accede the point.
Mainland? China?
Eat, eat.
Why China? Do you know when we just ended our last case?
2 days ago.
You wanna die?
It's a big case.
If we do well on this one, let's go on a trip.
Shut up.
I'm not going unless it's the Bahamas.
The Bahamas sound good.
But, just us?
You see that table over there, right?
Hey, hey, don't look. Acting like an amateur.
The vibe is good.
I want the woman on the right.
Me too.
Bring it on.
Let's see who's got the killer smile.
Fine.
The eyes, don't do the thing with your eyes.
Last night at 11:30 at a 3 story building in Seoul's Gwancheol-***,
a fire broke out in the pub 1 floor underground.
The fire filled the underground bar, killing one person...
...spread into the karaoke rooms on the second floor
and 3 people there suffered burns and were taken to the hospital.
[Chungin Construction Executive Director 9:00 AM meeting]
...reports of the fire starting in a storage room...
...are searching for the origin of the fire.
Gather up, gather up!
That's Kevin, right?
The guy who was his partner in the US.
Didn't he die?
Who knows, whether he died or was killed?
Because the truth is always hidden behind a black cloud.
Are you suspecting the Director right now?
Suspect all propositions.
That is a private investigator's creed.
You just got qualified, and now you're imitating a private investigator?
Aristotle said this, imitation is the mother of invention.
Just take care of your own mother. And go home during the holidays.
Aren't you worried about the Director?
We're gathered here because we ARE worried.
What's the use of gathering? We should do something.
What do we do?
We should just take off.
And not disturb his thinking.
Just a sec!
You think our Director and Kevin,
maybe had something going on? Mmm?
Let's go.
What?!
Hello?
Wow, Hyungnim, you haven't taken off from work yet!
Ay, what an idiot.
Use the honorific form of speech, will you? Eh?
When we're both getting wrinkles together, who needs honorifics?
In life, people may not need to be aware of who's on par,
but they should distinguish who's above and below.
Hyungnim, how old are you again?
Forty nine.
You're really quite old.
Oh my my, my blood pressure is starting to shoot up again.
Hyungnim.
Find a file for me in the Central and South Americas area... Melchidec.
I'm not sure yet if it's a person or an organization.
Am I your errand boy?
It's a big case.
I'll give you 3 percent.
3 percent?
I'm giving you 3 percent because it's you, Hyungnim. I only gave James 1 percent.
How much is 3 percent?
Exactly 2 times what you're imagining.
I'm hanging up, okay?
Hey, hey!
It's President Ji from Korea.
He's always calling whenever anything happens.
His lack of independence is truly...
And in these global times.
Wow. I guess your business is quite large.
The Arctic, the Antarctic, the polar regions like this,
and in all parts of the world, there are subsidiaries.
Working that hard, I haven't been able to marry yet.
You're quite beautiful.
Whoa-ho, look at this.
Let's see who wins.
I heard you were divorced. Was it a bad personality match?
Yes, it happened only 2 months after we were married.
He wasn't a very attentive man.
There's a saying in Korea.
That if you're divorced within 3 months of marriage,
you're almost just like a maiden.
Basically the saying is that you're just like a complete maiden.
You probably hear a lot that you look like you're in your early twenties, right?
Oh my, do I look that young?
Men in my business, we don't lie.
Because honesty is our net worth.
I'm going to pop into the restroom for a moment.
Oh my stomach. Oh my stomach.
You're beautiful.
He's really up to all sorts.
President?
President, my president, I'm sorry my batteries so low that...
Were you on another matchmaking date?
Who is it this time?
- A rich divorcee? - Excuse me?
Ahh, a date?
How could I in my position? President, really.
So, why do you keep going on matchmaking dates in your position?
You need to save the business.
Of course, President, yes.
I'm putting my faith in you only.
I too put my faith in me only. Huh? Me only.
Melchidec, find some information in Europe and Central Asia about it or him.
But President,
this time, you'll need to pay me quite a bit.
I'll give you 3 percent, *** Boo
Next week my promissory notes are up for collection.
If I can't block that, I'm dead. Dead.
That's why you have to work.
Don't just be thinking about seducing rich women.
*** Boo! Fighting! (*** Boo: intentionally playing with name Sa Boo).
Hello? President!
*** Boo? What the hell *** Boo? That young little brat... with those slitty eyes... ay!
The intelligence department called.
Ji Woo connected with the Jang Sa Boo in China.
Did you find the location?
Yes.
Let's go!
Where?
Off work?
No, we're moving out.
What are you doing? Just like amateurs.
What?
Where you're going, where he's at,
whether your plans are to go in and arrest him or lure him out,
whether or not to have reinforcements ready.
You have to report all that!
I can just report afterwards!
Report before taking action.
You don't know the phrase?
Squad Leader Do,
I'm the Team Leader.
It's over there,
and we're going to catch him on our own.
We don't need reinforcements.
End of report.
Just because he shot you before,
don't think of taking revenge.
I'll be going.
Your gun!
Relinquish it before you go.
***!
Ah, I'm squished. My leg, my leg, my leg. Ah really!
Ah, couldn't we switch to a 7 seater?
Yes, squad leader. How can we catch criminals with leg cramps?
There's 5 of us. Why do we need a 7 seater?
Turn off the siren.
Are you advertising that we're coming to catch him?
Ow. Hey, can you drive properly? Geez.
Oh, that hurt.
Sorry!
She should be sorry.
If you don't bring the merchandise by tomorrow,
I'm going to get Interpol after you.
So just give me some intel on Melchidec.
You know where you can shove your intel! You're totally dead, man!
I'm going to slit your private investigator neck!
Hyungnim.
Are you pissed off?
Pissed what?
Pissed off?
Oh how petty.
Use mine.
Come here. Come here.
Come here. I oughtta...
You stay right there. You stay right there!
Come here!
Come here!

- How did you find me? - It's been a long time.
Did you kill him because of money?
What the hell are you trying to pull?
The case of the killed Asian couple in Los Vegas.
Wasn't this your case?
You know. They all died.
Everyone connected to me.
All of them.
It's her.
- Where is she now? - So you can't be with me.
Your friend Kevin.
I'll tell you who killed him.
I don't need no private investigator.
Hang up.
Taking money to find criminals is a crime in itself!
You're not really going to Japan, are you?
I'm going to Japan.
Then let's go together.
Because Melchidec is in Japan.
The woman I was with has vanished too.
It's possible she was kidnapped.
Her name isn't even on the list...
Are you telling me I was with a ghost?!
Who are you?
