Vigilante (비질란테)

ALL CHARACTERS, EVENTS, LOCATIONS AND INCIDENTS ARE FICTITIOUS

God, my head.

-Who the fuck drives like that? Motherfucker!

If you killed a person while driving drunk, don't drive again!

How dare you drive drunk again?

Come here, you motherfucker!

Get up! Get up, you bastard!

Why did you beat up your girlfriend, you piece of shit?

What did you say at the trial? You did it because you loved her?

I love you too, you son of a bitch.

Don't blame us.

We're just doing

what the law failed to do.

Consider it heavenly punishment.

How is this justice?

Why doesn't the law punish people properly?

Why does it neglect the victim and forgive the perpetrator?

That doesn't mean you can use violence. Keep quiet.

Why are you doing this to us?

There are tons of real bad guys out there!

Next is news of the vigilante copycat crimes happening across the country.

A total of 18 copycat crimes have been committed,

including five in Busan,

four in Gwangju, and two in Daejeon.

Vigilantism is a serious crime that shakes the rule of law.

The Korean judicial system has been turned into that of the Old West

because some of the media have depicted him as a hero.

Now, I take this opportunity to warn you.

Vigilante.

You are no Robin Hood. You're just a felon.

What will you say to the teenagers who have committed crimes influenced by you?

Stop shaking the judicial system of the Republic of Korea!

All right.

This is crazy. The whole country's going crazy because of the Vigilante.

Why is that because of the Vigilante?

The bastards using him as an excuse are the problem.

I told you not to study.

Can't you see?

I say the Vigilante knew it would end up like this.

Or he may have aimed for this all along.

-I doubt he wanted this. I agree.

He wasn't the one who incited it. It was the media.

If only that passion to protect the judicial system

had been spent on victims, it wouldn't have come to this.

Kim Jiyong...

You're weird these days.

What do you mean?

You and I see eye to eye.

That's weird.

He beat a man to death in the apartment,

and there are no clues whatsoever? That's unbelievable.

Did you even investigate?

We even went through all the dashcams of parked cars nearby,

but there was no one to suspect as the Vigilante.

Any new leads

in the Seo Dooyeop case?

Nothing's changed,

but Seo Dooyeop's accomplices confessed to other unknown crimes.

But they have nothing to do with this case.

They're more afraid of the Vigilante than prison.

Is that it?

I don't know. I doubt they are just afraid of the Vigilante.

The whole world is watching now.

Right?

VIGILANTE

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE DELIVERY DRIVER CASE?

Mr. Han?

Yes?

Did you read the article on the delivery man on HIT Gallery?

The truck driver was released from prison. Get an interview.

Let's put it in the preview and see the reaction.

But I don't think he'll answer my calls.

I know.

Give him a call and get rejected.

Then start covering those around him.

Poke all the people that are involved in his circle. Okay?

But these days,

people are sensitive about human rights and even sue for...

violations, so...

Aren't you a reporter?

Is there anything you can do on your own?

I understand. I'm sorry, ma'am.

DELIVERYMAN DEATH CASE

DELIVERYMAN DEATH CASE

I SAY HE DELIBERATELY KILLED THE DELIVERYMAN

JUST A YEAR AND TWO MONTHS IN PRISON? IS THE DOJ CRAZY?

THERE'S A SAYING IN OUR INDUSTRY. "IT'S BETTER TO JUST KILL THE VICTIM."

What are you doing here?

I couldn't sleep, so I was organizing the professor's files.

What about you?

Me too. I can't sleep.

Why are the lights off? It's bad for your eyes.

Right.

CHOI GYUHO

DELIVERYMAN CAR ACCIDENT CASE

PERSONAL INFORMATION CHOI GYUHO

Damn it. It's been parked for too long.

I really ought to sell this junk. God damn it.

You...

You damned bastard. How could you be out?

You killed my son! How could you be out so soon?

God, this woman. Stop it already!

I didn't kill him! It was just an accident!

Then you should've called 911.

Why did you back your truck up?

For fuck's sake!

I finally managed to forget about it. Why bring it up again?

You're trying to get money out of me, aren't you?

Threats like this won't work on me.

-So get lost! God damn it! -(WOMAN GROANS)

Have you heard of the Double Jeopardy Clause?

It means I'm innocent now.

It's over because I received my punishment!

Don't you understand?

God, this is fucking annoying!

DOLPHIN SEAWATER BATHHOUSE

What... Who are you? What the fuck are you doing?

Stop, you bastard.

What am I doing?

I'm punishing you, you piece of shit.

Hello.

Gosh, you're amazing.

How are you here just in time?

-Are you doing well in school? -Yes.

Jiyong, you're the pride of our neighborhood.

If my son ever does something bad,

just throw him in jail.

-(WOMAN LAUGHING) -Oh, my.

For the boxes.

Thank you.

Choi, who had been released

after serving 14 months for the manslaughter of a deliveryman,

was found dead in a bathhouse around 3:00 p.m. today.

The police believe that it was the real Vigilante, not a copycat,

and have launched an investigation.

We'll hear from Reporter Lee.

FORENSIC SCIENCE

Were the CCTV cameras turned off again this time?

They weren't, but it seems he used some kind of jamming device

that forced them to deactivate.

Everything around here is dead.

This bastard is evolving.

Choi Gyuho, who had just been released after serving a year and two months

for the manslaughter of a deliveryman, was found dead.

Unmasking The Case 24:00 reveals the truth for the first time.

We're fucked.

They beat us to it, didn't they?

Choi Gyuho, who was sentenced to just 14 months in prison,

-has been punished by the Vigilante. - (FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

He was suspected to have deliberately killed...

How did he kill him when my show didn't even air?

Maybe he saw it on the HIT Gallery site?

Did you get an interview?

He wouldn't pick up the phone, so...

Is this how you're going to work?

We have to make the Vigilante depend on me.

Don't you understand what I mean?

I'm sorry.

If you have time to apologize, go do your job.

There are three people who have been punished leniently

just like the perpetrator of the deliveryman manslaughter case.

Let's re-examine the cases.

First, Woo, a woman in her 40s who killed her husband

for insurance money.

I'm sorry.

Please don't kill me.

I can't do that. I came to kill you.

Hold on. There was a cool line for this. What was it?

I swear, I didn't kill my husband for the insurance money.
