The Good Thieves (도둑놈, 도둑님)

(Middle school teacher appeared to have been murdered by a drug ring.)

Soo Hyun.

Kim Soo Hyun.

His son's name is Kim Soo Hyun,

and his wife's name is Min Hye Won.

Min Hye Won?

What's wrong with me?

What's the matter with me?

Dad, what are you doing?

I can't stay home like a fool forever.

I should at least work at the shop.

Already? Don't be too hasty.

The doctor said it'd be okay.

Rather than lying still at home,

I should build my muscle strength.

By the way,

what's wrong with your eyes?

Did you cry?

- No. - Did you...

think about Great Aunt?

That's not it, Dad.

Do you remember when I asked you about a kid named Soo Hyun?

The night I had a nightmare.

What about it?

So Joo told me this today.

His father's name is Kim Chan Gi.

And his mother is Min Hye Won.

When I heard the names, it felt somewhat familiar.

I will have to check on it.

About what?

I don't know.

My head feels foggy. It's so irritating.

You rascal.

You should focus on Great Aunt instead.

I think it has something to do with Hong Il Gwon.

So Joo says Kim Chan Gi's body was found...

near Hong Il Gwon's villa...

in Chuncheon.

I will talk to Min Jae...

about the investigation on Great Aunt tomorrow.

I will have to find out everything related to Hong Il Gwon by then.

Jung Hye.

Is he...

your dead son?

Yes.

After you left like that,

I felt so bad for you, so I came here.

I'm sorry.

After I met you,

I couldn't stop thinking about him.

You make me...

feel so ashamed.

From the beginning.

What do you mean?

When I hit you with a car drunk,

when I came here to ask you a favor,

and...

when I offered you money for that favor,

you always...

treated me with all your heart.

Can you please...

give me a chance?

(Prosecutor Yoon Joong Tae revealed the full story.)

Can I come in?

Yes. Come in.

So Joo, about Kim Chan Gi...

I was looking at the articles about the case.

Take a look at this.

Prosecutor Yoon Joong Tae?

Chief Prosecutor Yoon was in charge of the case back then.

Should I go ask him about it?

You heard about Kim Chan Gi from Detective Jo in Chuncheon, right?

Yes. He was my father's best friend.

We should meet him first.

It doesn't say your father was involved in this case.

We should grasp the situation...

before meeting with Chief Prosecutor.

Dol Mok, I just remembered something.

Dad left some case files in our house in Chuncheon.

I saw it once after Dad died.

There may be something I missed back then.

Let's look through them again.

Okay.

- Are you sure? - I'm 100 percent sure.

Including Investigator Koo,

there are 10 investigators who saw Senior Prosecutor Choi...

arresting Jang Pan Soo on the spot.

They even witnessed that Choi Kang Gyu took Jang Pan Soo...

over to Chairman Hong?

No. Senior Prosecutor Choi...

took Jang Pan Soo alone.

Okay. I'll meet the investigators.

You should bring Kang Gyu here.

By the way,

we have a problem.

If Choi Kang Gyu confesses that he arrested Jang Pan Soo,

it will prove that Jang Pan Soo is J.

In that case, we will have no choice but to arrest him.

If we arrest Jang Pan Soo,

Jang Dol Mok, the real J won't let it go.

What if we arrest all of them?

- Pardon? - We will catch...

both J and Chairman Hong.

It's like killing two birds with one stone.

We can never do that.

- Why not? - If we do that,

Jang Dol Mok will expose the pact with us.

It's just a piece of paper. We can just deny it.

We would say J forged the document.

That's unacceptable to me.

It's a breach of promise.

A pact with a thief isn't that important.

Our goal is to catch the criminals.

Dol Mok worked for us.

If you act like that,

I won't just wait and see.

Hey,

are you going to betray me...

just for the thieves?

I thought you value the law the most.

I just want to be on the right path.

I don't want to backstab him like this.

What do you want to do then?

Do you want to let Kang Gyu go?

We will arrest Choi Kang Gyu...

and say...

Jang Pan Soo copied J's crime.

Anyway, Jang Pan Soo didn't steal anything.

Is he an attorney?

Is he your boyfriend?

No, he's not.

He's just a friend who lives in the same house.

That makes him your boyfriend.

Your relationship is serious if you live in the same house.

That's ridiculous.

- What do you think about So Joo? - Mr. Jo!

Stop talking nonsense.

We came here because we had some questions.

You told me about Kim Chan Gi's drug case the other day.

We'd like to know more about that case.

What is it?

Prosecutor Yoon Joong Tae was in charge of Kim Chan Gi's case.

For some unknown reason,

So Joo's dad got involved in that case.

Did So Joo's dad really steal the drug?

Did he admit that he stole it from the beginning?

He went berserk and said he didn't steal anything.

It was the opposite. He claimed that...

it was Prosecutor Yoon Joong Tae who fabricated the case...

and framed him as the thief.

Prosecutor Yoon fabricated the drug case?

Well, that's what So Joo's dad claimed.

Later on, he did admit the charge.

- But how did he get released? - Well, the thing is...

I think your dad...

must have begged the prosecutor in charge to let him off.

He said no one could take care of his four-year-old daughter for him.

Prosecutor Yoon showed mercy on your dad.

He was raising a daughter who was the same age as you.

Bring the suitcase from Secretary Jung inside.

- Yes, ma'am. - Let's go.

Hold on.

I get it.

Just take a look around first. Please?

Let's go. Come with me.

This room was used by a kid we knew.

Our housemaid cleaned up the room every day.

But no one used this room,

so we left it as it used to be.

What's wrong? You don't like it?

You don't have to do this for me.

I'm doing it so that I can feel better about myself.

I know that you are a nice person, Jung Hye.

Can you do this for me once again?

Thank you. I will have the housemaid clean the room right away.

No, I will clean it.

I don't have a lot of stuff anyway.

Okay, then.

If you need anything, tell her...

Wait, no. Let me know if you need anything.

I will order a new bed and dressing table.

Please don't. I can use whatever is here.

- I don't want to impose. - Okay.

I'm afraid that you might run away,

so I won't impose on you too.

Do you think Prosecutor Yoon really fabricated the drug case?

That's not like him.

Whether he fabricated the case or not,

I'm certain that the case is related to Hong Il Gwon.

Why?

Is it because his body was discovered near his villa?

That's one reason.

But can you understand how your dad was released?

Prosecutor Yoon let a man who stole drugs walk free out of sympathy?

I can't understand that.

As far as I know, he wouldn't do such a thing.

He would've taken advantage of him, but he wouldn't have released him.

- Then what? - The case about gold is an example.

My dad became a scapegoat for the gold Hong Il Gwon had stolen.

Prosecutor Yoon knew about this, but he tolerated it.
