Villains (빌런즈)

ALL CHARACTERS, PLACES, AND EVENTS IN THIS WORK ARE FICTITIOUS

ALL MINORS WERE FILMED IN COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARD PRODUCTION GUIDELINES

They said Dad can get his hearing back

if we have money.

Snow Fairy Sugar.

Please turn the snow that falls like crazy into money

like in cartoons.

Help my dad get surgery.

It's been about a 7km walk from Cheonggye Plaza to here.

Are you on a date with me or what?

We'll get attached at this rate!

Stop whining. We're almost there.

What trick are you pulling right now?

You wanted a documentary proposal.

Just follow me.

Seriously.

It had better be that proposal.

It was you who got J into action

and created the super note.

And

you already knew that a counterfeit 100-dollar bill was stuffed

in the dead Choi Do-sik's mouth.

Yes, you know way too much.

That's how you almost got killed.

But here's the thing

you know nothing

about super note distribution.

I have something to report.

Come back later if it isn't urgent.

The autopsy results are in.

The Incheon murder case.

Come outside.

PLAN A AND PLAN B; GAME OF DECEPTION

We recovered a bullet fragment

from the victim's thigh in the liquor warehouse.

It's 9mm Major.

A round that was made through a workaround in Europe

for use in civilian handguns.

Is this Sergeant Jung?

Yes.

It's written in the report. Give me one moment.

Hey, what was it again?

The bullet inside Choi Do-sik. What type was it?

It's 9mm Major.

It's called 9mm Major.

It's not something you see in Korea.

SINDAP RAILWAY BRIDGE, CHEONGGYECHEON

Back under Park Chung Hee, they covered up Cheonggyecheon

with concrete to build the Cheonggye Overpass

and restored it in the early 2000s.

So what?

From Cheonggye Plaza where we started

to under that Sindap Railway Bridge you see over there.

That's the stretch they covered back then.

What does that have to do with your proposal?

Gosh, your temper.

How come you're so impatient?

Seriously.

All right. This is the core of the real documentary pitch

so listen carefully.

Seoul in the 1960s.

They said they were building

the Cheonggye Overpass to improve traffic.

But the real reason was to prepare for war.

They covered up Cheonggyecheon

to build escape tunnels and bunkers underground.

You're saying there's a tunnel under Cheonggyecheon?

It's 30m down.

We go 30m underground

move forward 7km

then come up 30m to the surface

and we're on Cheonggye-ro.

And less than 10m from there is

KC Bank headquarters.

That building right there is the place we met two hours ago

and our target.

KC Bank is scheduled to move to a new headquarters in two weeks.

Before that

they're transferring 2.25 trillion won in cash

and the VIP safe-deposit boxes to the new building.

There will be three cash-transport operations.

Next Wednesday is their first run.

How much are we taking?

It's 500 billion won.

Before the transport even begins

we walk out with 500 billion won

and leave counterfeit bills in their place.

You're telling me the counterfeits

won't be noticeable?

Here.

This is my guys' work.

What's this?

Are you sure this is fake?

High-precision counterfeit.

A so-called super note.

That's insane.

I'm keeping this as a souvenir.

But from here to KC Bank looks like

at least 20 to 30 meters.

We hired a Chinese gold-mine excavation team

with 30 years of experience

and they've been digging for a month already.

The passage is secured.

Let's check it out.

You don't trust me?

Me? Trust you?

I have to see it to believe it.

Especially when it's coming from you.

KC FINANCIAL GROUP

Careful.

What do you think?

You lunatic!

This is what I call a documentary proposal, you punk!

You're out of your mind!

You slick son of a bitch.

You lovable bastard!

All right!

J killed Do-sik, right?

I don't know.

We confirmed

that J took the counterfeit bills and met up with Do-sik.

Yes, there was a time

when he took 25 billion won in counterfeit cash

and came back empty-handed.

About five days before I called in the tip

to the NIS

J and I went out together for the first time in a while.

5 DAYS BEFORE THE TIP-OFF

He's not here yet. It's been two hours.

He called and said he'd reschedule for tomorrow.

He's got zero intention of doing this deal.

- It's hot! - Sorry.

- That's so hot! - I'm sorry.

What were you even looking at?

Yes, my eyes are crooked.

What?

Cops are on us.

Listen to me.

Go outside

grab a commercial taxi, license plate 8508

and say you're going to Jangchung Arena.

We've met with Choi Do-sik.

Well, a welcome passenger after two hours.

Go to Jangchung Arena, please.

Goodness.

I almost got a stiff neck waiting for you, sir.

Two hours isn't exactly a short time.

You could have come out a little sooner.

You kept me waiting for two hours.

Let's talk naturally, sir.

J?

That 97% pure meth

I'm trying to buy for 50 billion won.

That's Joong-hyuk's product, isn't it?

How did you...

I know that bastard Joong-hyuk.

He's getting more and more arrogant.

He's trashed every bit of industry etiquette.

That two-faced son of a bitch.

I came because you said you were investing 50 billion.

I didn't come to listen to you talk trash about people.

You're right.

We should talk business.

There's a 97% pure meth production plant in Incheon.

From manufacturing to shipping

it's locked down so tight that not even security cameras

can catch anything.

And right now

they've got products worth 100 billion won finished.

You extract all of it

you take your promised 50 billion

and we split the product 50-50.

Do you seriously think that's possible?

All right.

Listen carefully from here on out.

Joong-hyuk has a secret underground route

into his drug plant.

Because of toxic fumes called

formalin that come out during production

they have to vent it every day.

So, from 3 a.m. to 6 a.m.

the plant shuts down.

There's a sewer tunnel 6m underground

and it's a drainage route built to prevent flooding during rainy season.

It's so safe that no one can know

unless they're local rats and cats.

That's why Joong-hyuk

doesn't pay much attention to security down there.

You're the hottest drug dealer in the country

so selling top-shelf meth you bring out

will be nothing for you.

And you get

your 50 billion that I promised.

How long are you going to keep living

getting looked down on by a guy like him?

It's a deal.

Let's do it.

The day J was supposed to meet Do-sik

after he stole the drugs

J told Joong-hyuk that Do-sik robbed the stash.
