Then keep your promise.
The VIP.
Who is the mastermind behind the attack?
The VIP is...
The VIP is...
me.
What did he say?
It's me.
It's no one else.
It's me, the person sitting in front of you.
Are you saying that you single-handedly came up with the Assembly Building bombing
and put it into action?
I was against President Yang's policy toward North Korea and planned it.
I disapproved of his economic policy and funded it.
I despised him for compromising with reality
and took part in the bombing.
President Yang's government
wasn't welcome anywhere.
Also,
this nation created numerous people that wanted to get revenge.
Those people willingly
turned my plan into reality.
However,
the plan wouldn't have been complete
if you weren't there at the beginning
and end of the attack,
President Park.
Park Mu-jin.
You helped complete the attack.
President Park's press conference is at 2 p.m. tomorrow, right?
Yes.
His term will end in a day, 24 hours to be exact.
The press conference tomorrow may be about his resignation,
but it's actually to announce
his candidacy.
He stopped the coup
and succeeded in arresting the key suspect for the bombing.
It's a relief he produced tangible results at the end of his term.
I hope it affects his ratings.
Secretary Cha.
We have today's approval ratings of
the presidential candidates
How does it look?
It's 11 percent.
Well,
it's okay.
We can work harder during the official campaign period.
How much harder do we have to work?
President Park is 11 percent ahead of Assemblywoman Yun,
becoming the most popular candidate once again.
When people found out he was working with her,
the approval rating seemed to have gone up for his leadership.
Goodness.
I thought his approval rating was 11 percent.
Secretary Cha,
you don't look surprised at all.
You didn't even flinch. Are you even human?
You both should hire lawyers.
I'm going to sue you
for attempted murder by gross negligence.
You almost gave me a heart attack.
Now he totally seems human.
Did the president see the result?
No.
He hasn't returned yet.
Did he go somewhere?
I thought he didn't have anything scheduled for this afternoon.
What do you mean?
How did I help complete the attack?
It looks like you didn't see this coming
when you're the biggest beneficiary of the bombing.
You said you're the VIP.
Then...
do you mean you used me to complete the plan?
I have
never seen you before.
The bombing didn't just occur
because of the person that planned it.
Someone who knew it would happen,
but overlooked it, is also responsible.
That person completed
the attack through you.
Who is this person?
A pardon.
I want you to promise me a pardon.
Then I'll tell you who it is.
I'll tell you
who completed the bombing through you.
Can I grant him a pardon?
Yes, according to the 79th Amendment, we could claim
the lack of the right of arraignment.
However, the problem is
that only the president has the authority to grant a pardon.
You only have a day left
and the election is in a month.
Although you are currently the leading candidate...
My promise
could be meaningless right now.
Even if it is legally possible, would it be the right choice?
The bombing caused over 300 casualties.
People were hurt beyond imagination.
How could he ask for a pardon?
He can never be forgiven.
I think we could grant him a pardon
if we could learn the truth about the bombing.
We should leave a precise record in history
on who and why such a tragic attack occurred.
I agree.
If you can figure out the whole story behind the attack,
you should grant the pardon.
If Mr. Kim starts talking today,
you will have figured out the truth
about the attack during your term, sir.
I'm sure it'll be helpful for the election.
What do you think, Secretary Han?
I'm against it.
The national sentiment will be against granting the pardon.
With the election coming up,
it is dangerous to make a choice contrary to the national sentiment.
More than anything, Mayor Kang and Assemblywoman Yun
will bring the pardon up for their campaign.
They'll use legal terms
and call it an abuse of authority.
They will try to cause controversy during the election.
You shouldn't look forward to a pardon,
since the election is coming up.
The leading candidate,
as you should know,
won't make decisions that will affect his approval rating.
President Park only has a day left in his term
and you're locked up here.
There is no reason for President Park to rush to pardon you.
So from now on, whether you confess or put a deal on the table,
you should talk to me.
If I can't settle it legally,
can't I settle it politically?
What could President Park be up to?
He wants to see me as a candidate, not the mayor of Seoul.
He said he'd meet us as a presidential candidate,
not the president as well.
I'm sure he has a reason.
You want our consent for a pardon?
Only the president has the right to grant a pardon.
Through the presidential election in a month,
one of us will probably
become president.
Whoever becomes president,
if you promise Mr. Kim a pardon,
he will start talking about the truth behind the bombing.
You want him to talk,
but stop us from talking.
Since the three presidential candidates agreed to it,
you don't want us using it in our presidential campaign.
Will you agree to it?
Wait a minute.
This places a heavy weight on our shoulders politically.
This isn't an amnesty for a political prisoner.
He's a heinous bomber.
Why should we cut him a deal
under our names?
Because this bombing
didn't begin from the spite of one evil person.
What's more important than convicting him is to
uncover the truth of the bombing.
Isn't it
our responsibility to find out?
AGREEMENT
This will get Mr. Kim talking.
I'll make him talk,
since we have this agreement.
I hope you do.
Answer me.
What do you mean President Park completed the bombing?
Why? What is it?
What is it?
Damn it.
Call an ambulance immediately!
- I'll go with him. - Okay.
We're going too. Follow us.
Let's go.
Could Mr. Kim have had a chronic heart disease?
Why is he suddenly having heart problems?
It seems weird.
He'll wake up soon.
What is going on?
Turn the car around!
Ji-won? We lost the ambulance.
Find out where it is.
Yes, we're at the traffic light at the fork.
Wait.
My gosh. Do you not know how to drive?
The ambulance...
Move it.
Move your car now!
I can't locate it.
- I don't see it. - Move your car immediately.
A helicopter will be here soon.
Show me your hands! Don't move!
There's a location Mr. Kim used for a rendezvous nearby.
