Longing for You (I Have Waited a Long Time for You / Oraetdongan Dangshineul Gidaryeossseubnida / 오랫동안 당신을 기다렸습니다)

Can you take this?

What? - Take this, please.

You're here. - What happened?

How could something like this happen?

Oh, no.

That brat, Hye Ju, hasn't come home yet.

Gosh, why isn't this jerk answering his phone?

Who is it?

Oh Jin Sung. He's my friend.

You saw him at the restaurant earlier.

But why are you calling him at this hour?

I'll ask him to drive my car to the city.

I guess you two are really close.

We're dating. What's your problem?

Suit yourself. I'm not jealous.

You totally failed. There's no suspense at all.

Gosh, what's up with him?

Hey, what took you so long to answer my call?

Are you drinking?

Hey.

There's been a murder here.

But...

What?

The corpse was left hanging there like laundry?

Severed Achilles tendons and excessive bleeding?

Hey, Troublemaker. We'll meet you at the scene.

We'll explain why once we get there.

Young Woon. - We're heading back.

Gosh, come on. Help me out here.

You're like the president of our village.

Please find out if there were any vehicles not from our village.

This way.

Why are hotshot prosecutors...

interested in a case from the countryside?

Let us check the body first.

Sure. Step aside.

Here.

It's highly likely that the culprit is an out-of-towner.

The murder took place not long ago.

So the culprit still might be in Woojin.

All right. Let's focus on searching this hill.

Quickly secure the security footage from all the checkpoints...

or buildings around every path leading to Woojin.

Get going. - Yes, sir.

Jin Sung.

How's Hye Ju's mom?

She passed out.

Her daughter was fine this morning, but look what happened to her.

Darn it.

Detective Oh. - What?

We'll have to transfer the case to Seoul.

Do hotshot prosecutors know nothing about manners?

This case took place under our jurisdiction.

This is my case.

Why are you taking this to Seoul?

It's confidential, so I can't tell you.

But I already sent in a formal request to your chief.

The case will be transferred to Seoul unless something comes up.

What if I say no?

Well, it will be a hassle.

But the result won't change.

Is that so?

Gosh. Then I should make your life easier.

After all, you're a hotshot prosecutor.

Of course. Yes.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Let's go back to Seoul. - I'm leaving.

Stop.

Have you heard of give and take?

What?

Let me join you.

You want to take him with us?

Having a detective who knows a lot...

about the area where the case took place...

won't be a bad idea.

You left Woojin a long time ago.

He's kind of a loose cannon.

It will be chaotic with him.

Can you handle him?

Well, people like him sometimes do make a breakthrough.

If that's the reason...

Okay. - Okay.

Detective Oh.

I have a condition too.

Cursing, using violence, or being over-the-top...

aren't allowed in my team.

Can you do that?

Mr. Cha, it's not my first rodeo.

Let manual laborers like us do the legwork.

You can just elegantly perch on your chair.

Or have a cup of tea while we transfer the case.

Okay?

I can only die once, not twice

Here I come

You're going to Seoul?

Gosh, yes.

Don't you know who I am?

I'm the best detective, Detective Oh.

Oh Jin Sung, the Troublemaker.

Even those competent prosecutors...

can't crack a case without my help.

They were practically on their knees...

begging me to join their investigation.

I was going to turn it down.

But I only said yes for Young Ju's sake.

Then will you transfer to Seoul for good?

No.

I bet they desperately want to keep me there.

But as you know, I'm picky.

I like my hometown.

I shall return gloriously after catching the culprit.

That's good.

Anyway, be careful.

Gosh, yes.

Don't be cocky and get stabbed by the murderer.

You ought to be careful.

Gosh, you'll give me bad luck.

Anyway, don't trouble Jin Woo while I'm away.

Got it?

That's ridiculous.

Mind your own business. - Come on.

I ironed the coat.

Unfortunately, the camera footage in all three crime scenes...

were not working.

Oh, my. Hello, everyone.

I'm Oh Troublemaker.

Oh, this box?

I'm an honorary ambassador of my hometown.

My hometown is famous for this. Have you tried it?

Tasty to the last claw.

All right. Don't be alarmed.

This is Detective Oh. He'll be working with us.

Please say hello. - I see.

By the way, is your name really Troublemaker?

Well, it's a long story.

His real name is Oh Jin Sung.

But he's got a nasty temper, so I called him Troublemaker.

People in our hometown called him Troublemaker, so the name stuck.

I'm Detective Yuk Jung Tae from Seocho Police Station.

Seocho?

I thought you were from an island or something.

Assistant Inspector Troublemaker.

My rank is Inspector.

Sorry. Playing the rank card? I didn't see that coming.

Well, our days together are numbered.

Let's forget about our ranks.

Sure thing. I can be cool too.

I'm Baek Mi Ja, an investigator for the prosecutors' office.

I look forward to working with you.

From your aura, I thought you were the chief prosecutor.

I'm Park Do Hyuk. I'm also an investigator.

Nice to meet you.

All right. Let's continue our meeting.

Let's start with the third murder that took place in Woojin.

The guys in Woojin are looking into out-of-town vehicles.

But why do you think the culprit is an out-of-towner?

A total of eight violent crime cases took place...

in Woojin in the past 30 years.

The cases were mostly larceny, assaults, arson, and group fights.

There had never been a single murder case...

in Woojin in the past 50 years.

On top of that, this is the most bizarre murder case I've seen.

So statistically-speaking, it's reasonable to assume that...

the culprit could not have been from Woojin.

I do agree with Detective Oh.

Woojin is my hometown, so I know that better than anyone.

Ms. Ko.

So you still think Bae Min Gyu is our prime suspect. Is that it?

Of course.

Then let's see if there are any ties connecting him to Woojin.

Right here.

There's an upscale cottage near the crime scene in Woojin.

Guess what? The cottage belongs to Bae Min Gyu's father,

Assemblyman Bae Tae Wook.

Being impatient sometimes pays off, I guess.

Mr. Cha, do you like tripe?

"You work fast."

Must I drag out compliments from you like I squeeze out fat from tripe?

Just be straightforward like a real man.

Real men go straight.

What do you think? I'm talking about Bae Min Gyu.

I think we can arrest him without a warrant.

No. We must check his alibi first.

We've been down this road before.

All right. Great. Then...

Detective Oh, can you check out...

Bae Min Gyu's alibi for the third murder?

Get that started now.

Detective Yuk, talk to anyone who might have known...

the murdered girl from Woojin. - Sure.

Why him over me?

You grew up there. So he'll probably be more objective.

I agree.

Investigator Baek,

please push the NFS to get us the report about the third murder.

Okay. Let's get going. - All right.

Here comes the expert of nagging, Baek Mi Ja.

Okay. I'm right behind you.

Who was against having me on this team?
