The Veil (검은 태양)

What took you so long?

What about my car?

Chief Kim.

What are you doing here?

Do you think Deputy Commissioner Lee can get out of the mess?

To be honest, he went too far.

He should've listened to us earlier.

Let's talk about him later.

So who would you recommend?

How about Executive Director Bang?

He's not bad.

But he's not one of us.

He won't say no...

since he's a natural-born politician.

Don't you think he should get rid of Deputy Commissioner Lee?

Who would want the blood of the present deputy commissioner...

of the NIS on their hands?

How about...

that guy?

He feels no animosity towards Sangmuhoe.

It's Deputy Commissioner Lee who he hates.

Why don't we help him get rid of Deputy Commissioner Lee...

and ask him to cut ties with us in return?

Do you think he'll take the deal?

When he was abducted to North Korea,

Deputy Commissioner Lee was the one behind it.

Let's give him the documents to prove it.

He will be furious.

Then let's put Executive Director Bang in charge.

It'll be like his initiation ceremony.

What is it?

Sir, it's about Chief Kim Jin Young.

I'm following him right now, but he's headed to the airport.

I think he might be leaving the country.

What are you talking about? I just saw him here.

What?

Are you sure?

He's in the next lane from me.

It was him.

Baek Mo Sa.

Han Ji Hyuk.

But he was in the special forces in North Korea.

I want to ask you something about Baek Mo Sa.

Officer, I'm done talking to this guy.

If you leave now, you'll die.

You'll be deported to China in a month.

Just think about the things you've done.

I don't think you can escape the death penalty.

But if you cooperate and answer my questions,

I'll make sure you don't get deported.

What do you want to know?

Why is Baek Mo Sa back in Korea?

I don't think you will live out your natural lifespan...

if you got tangled up with him.

I've never even met the guy.

I heard he hated to reveal himself.

Weapons, drugs, prostitution,

and counterfeit money.

All information from the borderline area...

go through him.

He uses that to his advantage and looks through everything,

even through the hearts of people.

Do you know why he's called Baek Mo Sa?

"Mosa."

That word means "schemer."

All these gangs are involved in bloodshed,

but he never gets a drop of blood on himself.

Only he remains spotless.

So he's Baek, "white," Baek Mo Sa.

How big is the gang?

The numbers are few, but they're greatly loyal.

He picks up abandoned boys from here and there,

then turns them completely into one of his own.

They would gladly die if they were told to.

Why did Baek Mo Sa return?

Are you asking me...

to change your diapers too?

It's not that easy to stop your deportation.

Did you think that was enough to seal the deal?

I told you that he didn't want anything.

But in other words,

it means there is something he strongly yearns for.

That man is...

beyond everything we could possibly imagine.

Who knows?

He might be up to something huge...

that could turn this place upside down.

There is one thing you must find out.

That there was one last piece of the puzzle I could not find.

To complete the puzzle, I need that piece.

Baek Mo Sa was the last piece of the puzzle.

That's why I couldn't complete the puzzle...

no matter how hard I tried over thousands of times.

The piece had been missing from the beginning.

Everything had unfolded according to Baek Mo Sa's plan...

for me, Kim Dong Wook, Oh Kyung Seok,

and even Lee In Hwan.

What's the ending he's looking for?

No matter what it is,

I can't let things go the way he wants.

Internal Affairs want to end the incident...

by concluding that Mr. Lee simply took an extreme measure.

That makes no sense.

The security system went down...

at the exact hour of Mr. Lee's accident.

I'm sure an insider was involved in this.

What happened to Shin Su Yong?

He left the country for Europe two days ago...

and went out of contact.

It seems like the executive director is making a move behind the scenes.

With Mr. Lee gone, he must want to take over the Domestic Bureau.

Have you gotten any news about Mr. Lee?

Thankfully, his life isn't in danger.

But he hasn't gained consciousness because of severe brain damage.

We can't just sit on our hands.

Contact Ji Hyuk once again.

Yes, sir.

Father.

I'm sorry...

I couldn't be of big help.

Father.

You taught me how to pray.

If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't be sitting here today.

And about your father...

To be honest, I hope you would...

put your past behind you...

and march forward.

I've been regretting a lot lately.

What if we were a bit more honest with one another?

Before you went to Shenyang a year ago,

if I had told you everything,

all of this wouldn't have happened.

Director Yoo Joon Man may not have become such a monster.

I might've been a failure.

I taught people to be suspicious, and I have lived that life too.

Yet...

I never knew how to communicate with people.

Are you here to apologize?

If I could, I would.

I'm sorry to say this, but nothing will change.

I only lived my life...

carrying on the duties given by the organization.

It was...

like a religion to me.

If I didn't have that reason, everything I did was...

nothing but violence.

Everything that legitimized all of my actions...

turned into things I cannot trust.

What can I do?

From now on, I'll only do things on my call.

I won't take any orders.

Allow me to put myself on duty as I wish.

I met with the executive director before I came here.

He gave me permission to create a task force team...

in return for covering up Mr. Lee's incident quietly.

Baek Mo Sa is a mistake I made.

I'll put all my power into arresting him.

That'll become my last duty.

Our rule is to leave out personal motives from our duties,

but the situations have changed.

Hatred, thirst for revenge,

I don't care what your motive is.

We need all of those emotions...

to put up a fight against Baek Mo Sa's lunacy.

Are they trustworthy?

Yes, I examined them myself.

I looked over them too,

and they don't seem to have a connection with Sangmuhoe.

Director Kang told me...

you were of crucial help in this incident.

No, don't mention it.

Please don't be disappointed that you aren't a part of the task force.

It doesn't matter.

Let me know whenever you need me.

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

What about Ji Hyuk? Not yet?

No.

You're about to see our top secret materials.

As of the moment you're exposed to these,

you'll automatically be included in this project.

Director Kim Young Gook is presumed to have died in torture...

after he was abducted to the North.

Director Yoo Joon Man successfully made an escape...

and fled to the Chinese border.

He named himself Baek Mo Sa,

quickly dominating the murky world by using the information...

and skills he learned as an agent.

Drugs, counterfeit money, and prostitution...

Drugs, counterfeit money, and prostitution,

and illegal arms trade.

- All right. Cheers. - Cheers.

Dig in.

I'm going to eat this piece with this.

This fried chicken is amazing.

This is super-duper tasty.

- Nice. Super-duper tasty. - Super-duper tasty.

- Je Yi. - Yes.

You should eat and get some energy. Okay? Here.

- There you go. - Okay.

- Eat up. - Okay.
