Strong Girl Nam-soon (힘쎈여자 강남순)

STRONG GIRL NAM-SOON

EPISODE 13 SAVE THE SEA HARES

I made a vow after my older brother died…

that I would never let someone I love

die on my watch again.

But when I lost my team leader

in such an unexpected way…

it broke my heart.

"Why did this happen to me again?"

It felt like it was my fault.

And I hated myself for being unable to prevent his death.

It wasn't your fault.

Out of everyone I've met, you are the sweetest,

most competent,

and greatest police officer I know.

Not to mention,

you're the most amazing guy I know.

I'm glad I have you.

You…

mean…

a great deal to me.

You also

mean…

a great deal to me.

I love you.

I love you too.

GEUMJU TV NEWS

She isn't picking up.

How many times do we need to call her?

MS. JUNG

I SUDDENLY DON'T FEEL WELL AND WON'T BE ABLE TO HOST TODAY

That's sudden.

Mr. Kim, you'll present the news alone.

Let's begin.

Is everything all right?

IT'S NO BIG DEAL, IT MUST'VE BEEN SOMETHING I ATE

CEO HWANG GEUM-JU

Hey, Nam-soon.

Mom, are you done shooting?

We just wrapped up.

Once it's edited, I'll send the final version to you

and Inspector Kang as well.

Mom…

Don't send it in the middle of the night.

He's exhausted,

and I don't want to interrupt his sleep.

Sure.

I'll let him sleep…

Sleep?

He's next to you and exhausted?

My daughter,

you did it.

Mom, what are you talking about?

It's not like that.

It's not?

Are you saying nothing's happening?

Whatever.

You're embarrassing me, Mom.

All right, fine.

Anyway,

I hope your stay with him will be fruitful.

I have high expectations,

so don't you let me down, my dear.

Stop it.

The night is very long.

I'll take it that you catch my drift.

Then…

He's handsome even with his eyes closed.

IT'S A DRUG TESTING KIT

Hello?

It'll be wise to take the test fast.

You…

have been drugged.

It wasn't CTA4885 though.

You'd better follow my orders.

The new psychoactive substance, CTA4885,

has been discovered at the logistics company Doogo.

Ryu Si-o, the CEO of Doogo,

formed close ties with those in politics and finance

such as Director Jung Dae-cheol of TBO Network,

Hwang Tae-jun, presiding judge of the Seoul Western District Court,

Commissioner General An Byeong-ho,

as well as Deputy Chief Prosecutor Moon Seong-u

to secure the distribution chain.

Such a network aided him in the expansion of his drug business.

The drug CTA4885

that Doogo's CEO Ryu Si-o went to such lengths

to keep hidden in plain sight

is this

right here.

To the naked eye, it looks like the filling of a puffer jacket.

However, take a look at what happens when I pour water on it.

CTA4885 DISGUISED AS PUFFER JACKET FILLING

It becomes a drug.

Get me the PR and legal teams.

We need to respond with legal action.

Yes, sir.

Paint it as sensationalist fake news.

Spin it into something

that nobody would believe.

Yes, sir.

And find all articles related to Doogo.

Of course.

Wait.

You know the warehouse part-timer who passed away a while ago?

The late Hong Jeong-ho?

Meet with his family.

I don't want someone having leverage over us.

It wouldn't be a bad idea to give them some condolence money.

Yes, sir.

Hillary, things are a mess at the office.

Some media outlet reported

that our exported puffer jackets have drugs in them.

It's blowing up online!

Nice.

It's going as planned.

SUPER STRENGTH AND SEVERE THIRST NEW DRUG CTA4885

GEUMJU TV

I'M A FORMER EMPLOYEE OF HERITAGE…

No way.

…I HEARD MANY OF THE MEMBERS CAME TO THE CLUB TO DO DRUGS

Life is tough, right?

Hang in there.

The police will patrol soon, so find a place to sleep indoors.

Your face will freeze off.

You…

Thank you!

Stay hopeful.

Anything can happen in life.

You little punk!

Are you kidding me?

You took a puffer jacket that was obtained without a warrant

and handed it to some pirate news station of all places!

And you call yourself a cop? Are you out of your mind?

You of all people know

that it speaks the truth.

Request a correction notice from Geumju TV or whatever it's called!

Are you furious with me

because I crossed the line as a police officer

or because I did my job too damn well?

Why the hell…

are you going down a slippery slope with a drug dealer?

You.

Do you think such insubordination will go unpunished?

Sir,

speaking as your fellow alumnus,

do you know how many of your juniors looked up to you

and dreamed of becoming like you?

I was one of them.

Go ahead and take disciplinary action against me.

But I…

will get to the bottom of this case

no matter what.

Also,

if I have to quit, I'll do it myself.

Come with me, Tsetseg.

-Where? -I have to meet some people.

Those who straddle the line between friend and foe.

I'd rather stay back.

The team has a lot on their plate today

-including writing an official response. -All right then.

You bastards.

We have been caught in Ryu Si-o's trap.

According to Geumju TV,

Doogo directly manufactured and distributed the drugs.

-Is that true? -Yes, I think so.

I think a Russian mafia group is involved.

Then…

what can we do about this?

We must set the record straight.

Mr. Jung,

provide countermeasures.

"A private news channel planting delusions in its viewers during a rough time."

Release a press kit with that angle.

I'll take care of the rest.

Mr. Ryu,

is it true though?

Were those drugs?

That no longer matters now.

Whether you live or die

is the issue at hand.

I'm sure you saw the news,

but our conversations were wiretapped.

So they all know who you are and of your involvement.

They also have you receiving bribes on tape.

Prosecutor Moon,

dig up dirt on Hwang Geum-ju.

I'm sure you'll find something.

Hwang Geum-ju has a daughter.

Her name is Gang Nam-soon.

She lost her in Mongolia and then found her.

Her story was covered,

but the links to all of those news articles are now gone.

I'm sure your network has relevant files and materials in the archive.

Dig up any information on that daughter.

The strong girl

Gang Nam-soon.

Mom,

it's Tsetseg.

Have you been well?
