Over 300 criminals head overseas to flee from the police every year.
Many of them hide in Southeast Asia,
and continue their criminal activities against Korean tourists and businessmen.
HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM, 2008
DON LEE
SON SUKKU
CHOI GUY-HWA
PARK JI-HWAN
Isn’t it great? It’s close to the city too.
It’s the perfect spot to build your resort.
Why isn’t this area developed yet?
It was the site of a semiconductor factory,
but that plan got scrapped, it’ll be changed to a tourist zone.
With such prime location and view, it’ll be a major tourist hotspot.
Who am I meeting today?
He has a big rental car business, he’s dying to meet you.
How much did he pay you?
It’s not like that.
You so got paid.
Do I look like someone who’d take bribes?
He’ll do anything to get on your good side.
Mr. Choi, how’s your hangover?
Why was last night’s beer tap so much?
I got to drink Louis XIII for the first time thanks to you.
And you let him drink that? You should’ve stopped them!
But you won a ton.
Winning is one thing,
spend money wisely, don’t dump it all on booze.
Let’s finish up and get hangover soup.
This guy was begging to see you in person.
He’s got some money?
He doesn’t do business only with Koreans.
He’s got a few buildings in Ho Chi Minh too.
Mr. Choi Yong-gi?
Good afternoon.
I heard a lot about you.
Hop in.
Have a great chat.
Aren’t you hot?
Having a snack?
You should eat something good.
So Jong-hoon tells me you run a huge rental car biz.
You’re filthy rich, I hear.
What?
You son of a bitch!
Asshole!
Lift up your head!
You bastards, what’s the matter with you?!
What is it?! You fuckers!
Move aside.
Do I look like I run a rental car business?
Do I?
You’re kidnapped.
THE ROUNDUP
Buddy! Drop the knife!
Heady! Bud!
I told you, I’m Heady from Youngdeungpo!
All right, all right, what are you even saying?!
Fuck you, assholes!
Don’t do it, man!
Come inside!
I can kill all of you, fucktards!
Damn! Not answering again!
Here! Over here!
This way, this way!
Afternoon, captain!
- Here, here. - Where is he?
He’s inside.
No, where’s Seok-do?
He’s not answering the phone!
Damn it...
Drop the knife, Heady!
Good to see you, sir.
What’s going on?
What took you so long?!
I had...
a blind date...
How do you have weekly blind dates?
He’s gotta get married someday.
What’s with him?
He’s known as Heady, a big nutjob for sure.
Heady?
He escaped from an asylum.
Hostage?
Two, the shopkeeper and a college girl.
Should we just barge in?
No way! It’s too dangerous, let’s get the SWAT.
We don’t know what that lunatic will do...
Where did they go?
Go easy on him, there are too many eyes!
You sons of bitches!
Do you know how hard thugs have it?
I know, I know.
My mom’s from Suncheon!
- What about her? - She can’t cook shit!
Damn, I feel so bad for you.
Come inside, I’ll give you a scratch!
Put the knife down!
What the?!
Goddamn...
Shit, we’re fucked!
Yo, Heady!
What are you gonna do?
What?!
Come here, let’s talk.
What?!
Stay back!
Come on, man!
- Don’t come near me! - Easy, easy.
That’s dangerous.
Hey, Heady.
Never seen me, right? I’ve never seen you too.
Do you trust me or not?
What’s there to trust?!
Put the knife down, it’s really dangerous!
Take them outside!
Okay, Hong-seok!
- Please come out! - This way!
Hurry, put them in the car!
You son of a bitch.
If you stab people with this knife,
would it hurt or not? Hurt or not?
It hurts!
You punk ass...
Get up.
Goddamn!
Bastard, are you a zombie or something?
Get over here, no photos please!
Police’s excessive force, 12 weeks in rehab...
How was this excessive force?
Maybe we should have asked the nutjob politely,
“Excuse me, sir, could you calm down?”
They were cheering and clapping, what a messed up article.
It’s okay, I’m unrecognizable with censored eyes.
Your body has to be censored to be unrecognizable.
No, no one can’t tell.
Honestly, anyone could mistake him for a criminal with that face.
Our rookie’s all grown up.
He does kinda look like a Russian thug.
If you look at it that way, your captain’s a terrorist.
His face has been drooping since high school days.
Am I right?
He kind of looks like a village totem pole!
His face expands and contracts depending on the day!
- When I first met the captain... - Quiet, shut up!
I almost cuffed him!
Cuff what, asshole, shut up, buddy.
Having fun? Are you happy?
Hey man.
You feel good to be on the newspaper?
It’s a sin to be a captain.
Did they whoop you good?
I’ll go talk to the chief.
Forget it, forget it.
You need to go to Vietnam.
Why there?
Heard of Yoo Jong-hoon?
No clue, who is he?
It’s those guys who robbed a jewelry shop in Garibong district.
Yoo was the lookout.
These punks, I remember.
He turned himself in in Vietnam for that case.
Why?
Who knows,
so go fetch him, think of it as a 3-day business trip.
Going overseas for once.
Who do I bring?
Boss, my father is a Vietnam war veteran,
it’s his son’s turn to go there.
Sir, my sister’s friend’s close associate lives in Vietnam!
- What’s with you? - I’ll do my best!
- Look at this punk! - You got no seniority, piss off!
You idiots!
You think this is an all-inclusive vacation?
It’s an important job to repatriate a violent criminal!
I’m gonna go with him.
- Wait, hold on. - What is it?
You can’t go, I need someone who speaks English.
English?
Can you speak English?
You’re asking me if I speak English?
Prove it.
I like to order salad first.
But...
no onion,
and
no Balsamic vinegar.
Happy?
Wow. You speak English really well.
That’s right, you’ll be just fine if you stay with me overseas!
Forget it, forget it.
No more on this, trust me and follow my lead.
Our captain is incredible!
HO CHI MINH INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
Christ...
Trust you, huh?
These guys don’t understand British accent at all.
Man, the Balsamic vinegar was a huge red flag...
I always wanted to come here.
Hey, excuse me.
Hello? Hello? Hello?
I, uh... we’re Korea police, police.
We’re really busy, so we have to go.
Out, okay? Out.
Be quiet!
Fuck, this guy doesn’t understand any English.
Don’t swear, I can speak Korean!
Sit!
Let’s go sit.
I’m really sorry.
Thank you.
My apologies, I’m a bit late.
I’m Park Chang-su, resident officer at the consulate.
So good to meet you!
I’m Capt. Jeon Il-man from Geumcheon Police.
You’re the captain!
I’m Det. Ma Seok-do.
- Detective... - Hello, hello.
My underling can’t speak any English at all,
that’s why we’re in this laughable predicament.
- What the... - Right.
It’s all right, should we go for a meal first?
- Yes, absolutely! - Sure thing.
- Grab all the luggage! - Your luggage...
Hey!
Are there any good diners?
Jeez...
This is only $1? Really?
Yes.
That’s incredible.
How could they travel without any cash?
They were haggling nonstop.
Those bastards are Korean thugs.
Korean thugs are dime a dozen.
Many Korean shops opened up, and gangs appeared alongside,
and violent crimes rose as well.
What the fuck is he looking at?
Hi, thugs, good to meet you.
You travelled a long way to Vietnam.
Fuck, he’s a cop.
- Seriously? - You sure?
Look at it, they got some drugs and marijuana too.
They look fishy.
- That’s not marijuana. - I’ll be right back.
Come on, you’re mistaken!
- But those bastards... - We need a break, man!
- Look, they’re leaving! - Let them!
Are you Koreans?
We’re having a grand opening, we’ll treat you right.
Korean again?
Gangnam service Ho Chi Minh price!
Piss off! Get that out of my face.
Detective Ma!
Yo, Gasoline!
Boss...
Damn, what are you doing here?
KOREAN KARAOKE
Looking towards my future,
I couldn’t continue living like that in Korea.
Then forget night jobs, and do something in daylight.
But he works so brightly.
Who’s this bastard?
I’m Cooking Oil.
What the hell...
What brings you all here? To catch a criminal?
We’re on a vacation.
Boss, you have to be careful.
Korean police wield no power here.
A ton of gangsters here carry guns around.
Guns?
Yes, they got guns and machetes this big,
things are really different here.
Who cares about that, we’re on vacation.
It’s not like we’ll ever get shot.
- Then come have fun! - Sure thing.
All right.
Gangnam service!
At Ho Chi Minh price!
CONSULATE GENERAL OF THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA
Consulate offices aren’t all that different from ours.
Such a poor condition.
At least we got air conditioning.
Yeah, it’s really hot here.
- How could anyone... - Thank you for waiting!
- It’s really hot. - It sure is.
Are there many missing tourist cases?
With 30,000 tourists a month, there are quite a bit of those.
Some disappear on their own.
Money is always the problem.
Please sign here.
Once you submit this to the immigration office,
you can fly him out after 10 AM tomorrow.
Why are there so much paperwork?
This is such a unique case.
There’s no precedent for a criminal turning himself in to a consulate.
We freed up a room and kept him here,
but it’s such a hassle for us.
Why did he turn himself in?
He felt a pang of guilt.
What? He felt what?
A pang of guilt.
Pang of...
A pang of guilt.
Damn, I made a mistake,
I signed ‘Jeon Guilt.’
Sorry about that.
Hey Jong-hoon.
Why did you turn yourself in?
I’m so very remorseful.
I’ll receive my punishment in Korea.
You want to serve your time in Korea?
Yes.
You sure eat like a snake.
Captain.
To the Truth Room.
Here?
Okay, one sec.
Give me that!
All ready!
Keep a lookout.
Okay!
Relax, it’s okay.
Det. Ma can find out everything.
What? Find what out?
Why did you turn yourself in?
I felt a pang of guilt...
A pang of guilt?
J- J- JD!
JD tried to kill me!
Lee JD, that idiot you kept around?
He’s here, yeah?
No.
No?
Det. Ma can find out everything.
Let’s take one of your ears.
My ear, my ear!
Hey, Det. Ma, go easy on him!
He’s got too many ears, I can take one of them.
Buddy, spill it at once!
Why did JD tried to kill you?
Hurts! It hurts!
I messed with JD’s girl...
Bastard, rip his ear off.
If JD is here, then Ki-baek is too?
The three of you are a set, you punk!
No...
All right, don’t answer.
Even if you don’t say it, Det. Ma can find out everything.
Are you doing that thing? Hold on, wait!
You really shouldn’t...
Don’t move, stay still, you’ll get hurt.
If you move, you might die.
Don’t kill me!
Is there construction?
My eardrum’s about to burst, stop it, it hurts!
I really don’t know! I’m not sure if he’s here!
You’re not sure?
But you’re sure about JD?
Yes...
I don’t think we should go and get him on our own.
Bringing in two perps instead of one is instant promotion for you.
No, we got no jurisdiction here.
Investigation and arrest are all illegal.
We’ll just tell him nicely to turn himself in, that’s all.
If you’re involved, it’s an investigation!
Blind dates you go on? Those are investigations!
Come on, let’s move.
What did Yoo say?
He keeps saying bullshit.
Captain, I’ll submit this to the immigration office then.
Yes, sure.
I have a friend in Ho Chi Minh I gotta meet...
I see.
Do you know where this is?
It’s not too far from here.
But it’s a rough neighborhood.
I’m okay with that.
He’s rougher.
It’s over here.
People are home.
It’s locked.
- Locked? - Yeah.
It’s open now.
How could you break that!
JD, Jong-hoon spilled his guts.
Let’s go home...
What the hell?!
Jeez...
Goddamn, what happened?
This is a murder.
This messes things up.
Call Mr. Park immediately.
Buddy, get the hell up!
You fucking dare to lie to me?
What’s going on?
JD was murdered, asshole.
What have you been doing? Tell me everything.
How’s a beating first?
Sir, deputy, this could spark a big problem.
Captain, can you please stop him?
Don’t do it.
Let’s not do this, I’ll release you, just go.
What?
I think that’s the best way, get out of here.
Go, come on, go.
Detective, I turned myself in.
Turned yourself in?
I won’t accept it, just go.
Get over here!
Get the hell out!
I turned myself in, goddammit!
“Goddammit”? You swore at me?
- Detective! - I’ll escort you out.
- Help! Please help! - Let’s go, let’s go home!
Wait, please! What are you doing?!
I’m sorry, I’m so sorry!
We kidnapped a man here with a guy named Kang Hae-sang!
Who? Kang Hae-sang?
He lured us to kidnap Choi Yong-gi, who runs a resort business.
Choi came from money.
That young bloke was a chump but spent money like a champ!
Give me that.
This is only $50,000.
And this is barely $90,000.
Which is less than $20,000 per head.
No fucking way.
Asswipe, what happened?
We went through all that mess just for this?
Speak your mind.
Mr. JD,
You said your friends are pros, but they’re amateurs.
- What? - Amateurs?
Maybe they’re simpletons.
Fucking hell?!
What did you just say, asshole?
If it wasn’t for Choi’s money, you’d already be dead.
I went too easy on you.
Fuckers.
Don’t want to make money?
There’s a limit to my patience.
- Du-ik, you... - Fucking bitch!
Stop it!
What in the world?!
Get that bastard!
- Stop right there! - You fucker!
We’ll continue this chat.
Get that fucker!
Goddamn, you!
You can’t lose him!
Stop right there!
Get up!
Grab him!
Son of a bitch!
You fucking bitch!
Fuck, get over here!
Fucking bastard!
You got a death wish?
Wait, please!
I’ll pay you $100,000 per head, that’s a promise!
Fuck...
$100,000 per head!
For real? You sure?
I got $200,000 in my hotel room, and some gold bars too.
So what’s the passcode?!
2963! 2963!
2963? That’s the real one?
We could’ve saved so much trouble if you let us borrow some earlier.
Sorry...
Why didn’t you say so, what are we doing here?
We could open a resort without that bastard!
Look at this fucker.
If you lie, you’re as good as dead.
He’s dead?
Are you out of your mind?
How could you kill him?
We gotta get paid before chopping him up, asshole!
Fucking bastard, money...
What the fuck?!
One less head means more for all.
What are you doing, dig properly, asshole!
Working overseas sure is nice.
Cops are loose, easy to get the job done.
$200,000 and gold bars from the hotel safe.
That’s all?
I could squeeze more out of him.
You there.
Hold on.
Mr. Choi, here’s your son’s arm, send $500,000, and he’s yours.
And then?
2 days later, he got paid, and JD and I just ran.
With money in his hand, he turned evil.
For a few days now, I sensed men following me.
I think Kang sent his men to kill me!
I’m sorry.
You should’ve said so earlier!
That’s why you turned yourself in?
Yes...
Kang must’ve killed JD.
If he finds out that I’m here, I’m dead as well.
Please send me to Korea, boss!
Now what then? We heard everything.
Let’s find the bodies first.
He’s so excited.
Write down the address here.
- Address? - Yeah.
Deputy Captain, this will cause headaches for a lot of people.
Yeah, but I still need the address.
It’s okay, it’s okay.
Captain, this has to be handed over to the local police.
Or he will be deported!
Yes, please make that happen.
Pardon?
Please get him deported!
Captain, I’m begging you.
GEUMCHEON POLICE
Boss, are you having fun?
See if anything pops up on one Kang Hae-sang,
and a missing person report on one Choi Yong-gi.
Kang Hae-sang and Choi Yong-gi?
Any other details to go on?
Nothing else.
Get on it.
Yes, I understand.
Thank you.
So, what did they say?
Cops don’t sympathize with other cops.
It’ll take about a month before a warrant is issued.
Kang will flee to another country before then!
Then what can we do? We’re not in Korea.
What can we do?
Shouldn’t you do something?
Nothing can be done.
Like what? Nothing can be done.
Damn it!
Where are you going?
Where is he off to now?
Mr. Park, please go stop him, he probably won’t
listen.
Have you seen this person?
I don’t know what you mean.
Can you understand him?
A few months ago, I think...
Seok-do, I know I can’t stop you,
but this isn’t Garibong district.
Hey, hey!
Wait a minute!
- Stop it, man! - Stop doing that!
What’s the matter with you?
Just let me find this prick, move out of the way.
Wait!
Det. Ma, you really can’t do this.
Will you be responsible for any problems?
This is clearly an illegal activity!
If this country’s laws can’t protect our people, then shouldn’t we?
Seok-do, you’re right, but...
Am I wrong?
Call the cops.
We’ll all be arrested.
Christ, is it even here?
Are you gardening? Hurry up and do it right!
Here, here!
It’s a worm...
Damn it...
What’s this?
Damn!
Found it, it’s right here!
What?
Holy cow!
I got one here too!
Another one?
We’re in hell.
I’ll notify the authorities.
Four bodies in total.
I really did come here on a vacation.
Detective, what’s up?
Have you heard of Kang Hae-sang?
What?
You’re after that bastard too?
How do you know him?
A local Korean thug named Raku was looking for Kang
about 3 days ago.
Raku?
Yes.
- Where is he now?- I don’t know.
- Is something up? - Look into it and call me ASAP!
What is Korean detective doing here?!
Is there a law in your country?!
We’d like to apologize.
We won’t cause any more trouble!
You’ll be responsible for this.
Go back to your hotel!
- What? Hotel? - What did he say?
No, no, no hotel! We are...
I call your...
We’re cops too!
How could we stand back when our people are butchered?!
Captain!
Even if we don’t have any jurisdiction...
Easy, easy, they’re pulling out their guns.
But even so...
I’ll sort it out here, please stay at the hotel.
Okay, I understand,sorry, sorry.
I’m getting this fucker no matter what.
If we bring him to the consulate, we could put him on a flight.
How do we catch him? You got a plan?
Come with me.
So humid...
You’re here?
Where?
Over here! Boss!
Let’s go.
Find it at once!
There should be $500,000 in cash, so search thoroughly.
You saw him with your own eyes?
Yes, I’m sure, I saw him myself.
I saw Kang leave this morning.
I found it!
Good, you may go.
Okay...
Thank you.
It’s a lot.
Look at this fucker.
That’s gotta be way more than $1M.
How many did he kill?
Let’s send the money back first.
Okay.
Yes, we found it.
What brings you here?
A bus brought us here.
Wow, just look at them.
Look, a sea of Koreans.
Hey, buddy!
Come here.
Come here!
What is it?
Fetch me Raku or Roku or whatever.
Who are you people?
They’re all Korean hooligans.
Boys, gather around!
Oh, you guys are cops?
Leave and save yourself some bloodshed.
Is he there?
Where you going?
Dude...
Stay down.
You’ll get hurt!
Just stay down.
Stop!
Stay on the ground.
Why are fucking Korean po-pos making noise on my property?
Are you the local police?
You’re Raku?
I am, motherfucker.
Boss!
And you are?
I’m Cheeky.
Don’t be cheeky!
Hey!
You’re all fucking dead, bastards.
This is Vietnam, not Korea, you fucking shit!
I’ll...
Fuck, this is a real gun, you thought you could kill me?
Come here, come here!
- I’ll kill you! - Stay back!
Stay the fuck back!
Nobody move!
Don’t you dare to move!
Stay where you are, assholes!
Choose your words carefully, or this is your last day.
Yes, sir.
Speak properly.
Why did you look for Kang Hae-sang?
We were paid to track him down, I don’t know the details.
So who hired you?!
Some mercs from Korea, that’s all I know!
Mercs?
Yes, sir.
So did you find Kang?
He guided them.
Yo, who are you?
I’m Cheeky.
You fucking cheeky monkey, get over here!
- I’ll be back! - See you soon!
Where are you, sir?
We’re heading to Kang’s location.
Did you find anything?
I asked a friend in the Intelligence for Kang’s files,
and strangely, Choi was never reported missing.
Yeah?
What’s the deal with his family? What does his father do?
Choi Choon-baek, head of Joeun Capital,
he’s a glorified loan shark.
Choi Choon-baek, I think I’ve heard of him.
He’s infamous in Myeongdong,
and main business is lending money to corporations,
daily cash transaction amount is said to be in millions.
But he never reported his own son missing?
Should I dig in further?
Yeah, look into it.
Okay.
What did he say?
It looks like Choi’s father sent mercs to kill the kidnappers.
Eh?
Let’s get ready.
Look at this punk.
Die!
You from Korea?
You took my money?
Who sent you?
Fuck you, asshole.
Choi... Choi Choon-baek!
Choi Choon-baek!
Choi Choon-baek?
Yong-gi’s father?
JOEUN CAPITAL
Mr. Choi,
this is Kang Hae-sang.
You’re not dead yet?
You sent men to kill me?
You took my money, and killed my son,
you thought you’d be safe?
I said you’d get him back, but didn’t say he’d be alive.
I...
will kill you.
Why did you take my money?
Return it.
Or I’m coming to Korea.
His manners are fucked-up.
Dude, wait a minute!
All ready!
Why did you bring the gun?
I forgot to return this to him.
Wait for me!
The door’s open.
Dang, he got wind of it and fled already.
Holy shit!
What the hell?
What’s all this?
How many are dead here?
I think we’re too late.
Damn it...
Why are there so many bags?
This fucker targeted Korean tourists.
Look at these passports.
What’s this?
I found it, it’s Choi Yong-gi.
Jeez...
Get over here, asshole...
Fucking bastards...
You’re Kang Hae-sang?
Police!
Don’t move...
Drop the knife.
Drop it, asshole!
Get off! Son of a bitch!
Come here asshole!
Fuck...
Goddammit!
Captain!
Bang! Bang!
Fuck it...
Useless piece of shit...
THONG NHAT ARMY HOSPITAL
Yes, I didn’t know at all.
But this happened because they were working for our Korean tourists,
so if you decide to do that...
Yes, I know the procedure, Mr. Consulate, but...
Seok-do...
Let’s catch him, I’m so angry.
I’ll catch him, so get some rest.
How could I? I can’t even piss on my own...
Call me when you need to piss, goddammit!
By the way, how long do we need to be locked up here?
Hey, Hong-seok!
Are you all right, boss? How’s the captain?
Captain’s good, any updates on Kang?
The Intelligence has been gathering information on kidnapping
and murder cases in Southeast Asia against Korean tourists.
The Philippines, Cambodia, etc.
All four cases resemble Kang’s MO.
Make contact, get friendly, kidnap, then demand ransom,
but even after ransom, none of them came back.
How many in total?
Four have been identified so far.
Also, boss,
the chief wants you to stop causing trouble...
All right! I’m hanging up!
Captain, how are you feeling?
It’s okay, he’s fine, he’s a crybaby.
I told you stay at the hotel...
Oh man...
You two are being deported.
What?
The authorities will take you to the airport.
Wait a minute...
Stay where you are.
We have to arrest Kang here!
Det. Ma, please.
What exactly is the reason
you’re going this far in someone else’s country?
Should there be a reason for wanting to catch a killer?
A bad guy must be caught!
We have to catch that bastard, I won’t leave without him!
Never!
I’m sorry about this.
I won’t leave, I’m too angry.
I’m not leaving!
Oh yeah.
That tall bastard I brought in...
What?
Help me! Help me!
The Korean detectives in custody ran away!
I need back up!
Back up, back up, back up!
Motherfucker...
Buddy, where is Kang Hae-sang?
Are you gonna take the fall for the eight bodies we found?
The local police will kill you if you stay here.
Buddy!
Tell me where Kang is,
and I’ll repatriate you.
Effective immediately!
You’ll be deported from Vietnam!
Cuff him!
Take him to the airport!
No cuffs needed!
I can’t! I won’t go!
Hold up, stop! Stop!
- Seok-do! - Out of the way!
Don’t do that, come on.
All right, we have to go!
- Go! - We have to!
- Go where? - To Korea!
Why there?
We’re being deported, we must be deported!
We are?
Yes, obey the law!
Translate for us.
They’ll cooperate.
Let’s go to the airport now!
Us, Korea, speed, speed!
Okay, let’s go, let’s go!
- We have to go. - Are you nuts?!
We have to catch Kang!
He’s in Korea to meet Choi Choon-baek.
Let’s go!
Hey boss.
Look at this fuck, grinning like an idiot.
- Allow me. - Yeah, here.
Captain, look at you.
Don’t even mention it.
I was ambushed by dozens of baddies with machetes...
Go rest up at home.
Go rest... How could I?
I need to head back and report to the chief.
- As the captain... - Give the captain his luggage.
- Yes, of course. - Let’s move quickly.
What are you doing?
You gotta carry this for me, hey, Dong-gyun!
Buddy, my hands!
Flying around ain’t easy.
What a mess.
Hong-seok and the rookie’s looking into smuggling vessels,
he’ll smuggle in, right?
Yeah, I’m sure.
The captain almost died.
That vicious bastard, I’m getting mad thinking about it.
How could he stab a cop?
Just give me one chance.
Which floor are you here for?
3rd floor.
Come with us.
I’ll get it done right...
Delivery!
Those guys weren’t my guys!
Where should I put it?
Just put it there!
Sir! Sir!
Fucking hell...
Have a great meal.
I’ll turn this place upside down.
Here eat this, he even ordered sweet and sour pork.
- Thanks for the meal. - All of this for one?
How did you know I was here?
Ever heard of GPS?
Everything is searchable.
Asshole!
Sit down, you illegal alien, come sit down.
I’ve been legal so long, and ever since I almost died,
I only do legal work.
Finding work for illegal aliens is what you call legal?
Enough, we got no time,
give me intel on any vessels coming in from China.
I left that life so long ago!
What’s with your hand? You rude mofo.
I’ve had it with you, it’s been a while.
Here.
Listen here.
Not coming?
I’m not the same Jang Isu from before!
One.
If you mess with me, I won’t take it on my ass!
Two.
Yeah...
So anything came in since yesterday?
All right, I’m hanging up.
Who was that?
He’s known as Captain One-eye.
He’s the only game in town when it comes to China.
SKIPPER KIM GYO-BUM
He said a new vessel came into Goongpyong port.
- Call Hong-seok. - Calling.
Hong-seok, where are you?
Go to Goongpyong port and get all security cam footages.
Yeah, one sec.
And?
And?!
That’s it!
That’s all.
You can’t just barge in and harass me!
Shut your face and answer me when I call, got that?
Let’s move.
You fucking bastard!
- Did you call me? - No, sir.
What a fucking dick head...
GEUMCHEON POLICE
GOONGPYUNG MART CAM #3
Where is this?
Parking lot behind the port, I got nothing.
Check the next one.
- Sir. - What?
This guy’s suspicious, he’s checking tires.
Maybe for car keys?
Boss, I think we got something.
You found him?
Rewind it.
Let’s see.
Stop.
Zoom in.
26O8251...
Yeah, that’s him.
- Send out an APB for it. - We got you, asshole.
Chairman, seems like Kang entered Korea.
Get some more mercs.
Bring them from overseas.
Give them 2 large upfront, and another 2 after the job.
Dead or alive.
Yes, chairman.
KOREAN COPS WERE STABBED IN VIETNAM
With your order, I’ll sort it out with the media.
All right, go on.
Ma Seok-do!
I told you to keep a low profile.
You made a big ass mess to fuck with me, right?!
No way. I was just trying to catch a perp.
Why were you trying to catch a perp there?!
They got cops there too!
And you, I sent you to keep an eye on him,
yet you fueled the fire, and shot a gun too!
I barely shot any, it was busted.
Why is this being handed over to Foreign Affairs?
We’re about to close it with security cam evidence,
how could you hand it all over now?
Yeah!
I’m powerless on this!
It’s no use telling me!
Always so powerless, that’s so weird.
Our chief didn’t read our report thoroughly again, right?
- Again?! - Yeah!
No wonder.
What do you mean?
Jeez, a total of four bodies were uncovered in Vietnam.
Of the missing Korean tourist cases in the Philippines and Cambodia,
Kang is suspected of four of them!
Four!
This guy is in a class of his own!
That’s why Foreign Affairs is taking over!
If that’s the end of it, your call is the right one.
There’s something else?
To seek revenge for the death of his son,
Choi’s father sent Korean mercs to kill Kang and his men!
But Kang killed even those guys,
and he’s here to find Choi Choon-baek!
If Kang suddenly shows up, would Choi just stay back?
Isn’t it insane?
It sure is.
Choi will send out gangsters,
Seoul will turn into a bloodbath!
Then we’ll be on TV.
If that happens, we’re all dead.
All dead.
Especially you, you’re double dead!
So dead.
- As the head police! - So head.
You got that in the report? That shit will hit the fan?
I’m begging you, please!
Read the report thoroughly!
I can stall them for a week.
Close this case within a week!
A week! You got it.
- A week! - A week!
Nice! A week!
You’re the detective who brought my boy back, right?
Yes, ma’am.
Thank you.
Please stay for a meal.
Yes, ma’am.
She’s his second wife.
He never had any children with his first before she died,
and Choi Yong-gi was his only offspring.
No wonder he sent mercs.
Yeah, I guess.
This is a gangster sausage party.
Yes, indeed.
Beautiful weather.
Do we get any gas stipend?
You serious? Dumbass.
How many months financed?
60 months, I got 59 left.
Go easy with it, don’t use it on operations.
Do you know how much I cherish my baby?
Isn’t this a second-hand car?
Yeah, Dong-gyun, I got it.
- Your keys. - Why?
Dong-gyun found Kang’s car, I’ll go check it out.
I’ll come with you.
No, you stay here and watch Choi,
and rookie, watch the cams thoroughly, got it?
Yes, sir.
- Give him your key, hurry. - My key?
Give me yours, I like this type of car, a USB.
It’s SUV...
Damn, didn’t work.
Boss.
Did you get anything?
Kang is so fucking meticulous.
He wiped the vehicle down before ditching it.
No security cams nearby either.
This won’t be easy.
They’re standing by in the lower parking lot.
They’re triad Chairman Ju’s boys?
Yes, they’re a sure thing.
If you fail this time, you’ll die first.
Yes, sir.
The chairman’s heading down, standby.
I’m coming down.
Copy.
Let’s go.
Wait a sec.
Who are those assholes?
I don’t see any resemblance...
I’m Kang Hae-sang.
You bastard!
Die!
Die, you fuck!
I told you I’d come to Korea.
Where’s my money?
Greet the chairman properly,
and we just need to kill Kang Hae-sang.
It’s just one guy, this will be over quickly.
What’s going on here?
Come here, asshole.
It’s been a while.
Who are these fucks?
Pay us more for them.
What’s that?
Crap!
Hong-seok! B1!
Choi is being kidnapped!
Out of the way!
Shit!
B1! Equus! Equus!
You fucker! Stop right there!
Stop...
Are you all right?
Did you get the plate number?
Yes...
Is the camera on?
Do you see this?
His head comes off tomorrow.
Here.
Okay.
Have $2M ready by tomorrow.
Keep your phone on.
When did you receive this?
Last night by a courier.
- Rewind it a bit. - Okay.
- They’re brothers? - Yes.
Contract killing, armed robbery...
These guys can’t be recycled.
They fled to the Philippines with warrants for their arrest,
and they were on Interpol’s radar over a Korean murder case.
I checked their records,
and their stay in the Philippines overlaps with Kang’s by 6 months.
It looks like an abandoned factory.
Was there one near where the car was found?
We’re not getting any support,
so go to Ilsan and look around with patrols over there.
Understood.
Hey.
Are we okay on our own?
If things go sour, we’ll be on the hook.
There’s no time.
He and Yong-gi may not be clean, but they’re my family.
Please do whatever it takes to arrest him.
What can I do to help?
So the thing is...
We can’t transfer the ransom.
Once he sends it overseas, it’s untraceable,
and we can’t ensure your husband’s safety.
So we have to make the trade in person,
we need you to lure him.
Don’t get worked up while on the phone.
We’ll guide you along the way...
I’m sorry to make you do this.
No need to be sorry, there’s no other way.
We got the call, it’s him!
Get ready!
- Quiet down, quiet! - One moment.
One, two,
three.
Please answer.
Hello?
This is Kang Hae-sang.
This will go smoothly if you follow my orders.
Is the money ready?
I’ll send you my account info.
- Are you an idiot?- What?
Why should I pay you $2M?
Hold on.
Give her a minute.
You bastard.
You killed my son even after receiving the ransom.
There’s no guarantee you’ll let my husband go,
so why should I send you money?
So you won’t even try?
If not, your husband will die for sure.
I’d thank you for it.
What?
Buddy, you killed my son.
If you kill my husband too, who’ll end up with his money?
You’ll flee the country, no?
Am I right?
I’ll give you $2M in cash.
Trade with him in person.
I’ll hand it over when I see him alive.
You’re a great negotiator.
Okay.
Bring $2M in a suitcase tomorrow.
If I find a tracker, or if you mess with me,
I’ll kill your husband and come after you.
1 DRIVER
Understand?
Come to Ilsan Central Intersection by 1 PM tomorrow, alone.
Did you get that?
I can’t drive, I’ll need a driver.
Jesus Christ...
No good?
No deal?
Just one driver?
Okay.
Let’s do this right and keep your hus...
Bad manner runs in the family.
Could I get some water?
- Water! - Yes, sir.
You did great.
Here, have some water.
That lady is no joke.
I really want to get this bastard.
So who should we use as the driver?
We can’t use one of ours, he’ll clue in.
Then who?
If we use a pushover, this will go sour very fast.
Fake marriage isn’t a bad thing.
All new lives start out that way.
Just hang in there for 3 months.
Did you bring the money?
Yes.
What is man’s face?
What he look?
He’ll be here in a few.
You punk!
Ignoring my calls? I’ll fucking kill you!
You just made me drive across town.
What’s going on here?
I’m barely making ends meet here.
What’s this? Marital status form?
You asshole!
Excuse me.
This guy is a con man, please go home.
Don’t give him money, go home.
Please go, go home.
He’s an illegal alien.
You’re coming with me.
I need you to drive, let’s get going.
Hey Jang! How have you been?
Hey, One-eye, get me a boat.
For which day?
Tomorrow.
Tomorrow? So suddenly?
That’s gonna be tough.
Unless I get some extra.
I’ll pay double.
Time and how many?
1 AM, 3 people.
1 AM, 3 people, okay.
Okay.
You vouch for him?
All routes to China are blocked,
this fucker is the only quiet way in.
SKIPPER KIM GYO-BUM
We’re right here.
Go North.
Drive around Ilsan,
when I give you a signal, lead her down.
We lose that bitch here, get the money and ship out.
Why just the two of us?
You fuck...
Don’t try to be smart.
Are you trying to take the money for yourself?
Right?
You will be following the money, you got some trust issues?
You trust us?
Do you?
We’re getting Kang today.
He knows captain and my faces, so you guys tail him.
Get off here and check the vicinity.
Yes, sir.
Jang is heading out.
This is fucked up...
Hup in.
Put the money in the back, where I can see it.
The lady’s leaving now with a driver.
No cops around?
None!
Move as we planned when they enter the Central Intersection.
Just follow my orders, okay?
He’s ordering us around in the comfort of the hideout.
He thinks he’s the boss.
Stay on them.
- Detective. - What? Yes?
Thank you for helping me.
Uh, yeah...
Dun worry.
Eyeballs on the Mercedes.
Okay.
Everyone, standby.
Hong-seok, scan the other cars.
Sang-hoon, take over.
Copy.
Central unit, check your surroundings.
I’m on them.
What the hell?
Stay right on their ass.
Boss, we found the derelict factory area.
The search area is huge, it will take some time.
Find Choi as quickly as possible!
Copy, boss!
I found the Jang brothers.
White Avante, 38M1775.
Is Kang with them?
No, it’s just two of them.
Damn, where the hell is he?
200m to Central Intersection, we’re almost there.
We’re close.
Dun worry, tis my specialty.
Stay calm, just stay calm.
Hello?
You arrived right on time.
Where are you?
Make a U-turn.
What?
I think that mail truck is following us.
Let’s begin.
Slow down.
Shit, what the hell?
What do we do?
Hold on tight.
He’s making a U-turn!
Should I stay on him?
No, no, just drive straight!
Why is he making a U-turn?!
Sang-hoon, just drive! Go!
Drive away! Go!
Stay close to her.
This fucker’s smoking us out, I’ll get on his tail!
Let’s move.
These bastards are trying to be smart.
Hong-seok, standby at the intersection.
Captain, Sang-hoon, back him up.
Copy, boss.
We’re on the way!
Get in!
How am I supposed to search all of these?
Have you arrived?
How many U-turns am I doing?
Do another one.
Are you kidding me?
You don’t want to get paid?
Shut your hole and do what I say.
Fuck! Turn it around!
Fucking hell...
Seok-do, we’ll drive straight.
Sang-hoon, you’re up.
Boss, it’s bad to delay any more time.
We’re making fourth U-turn already.
They’ll find us out soon.
Seok-do, let’s grab the brothers first.
We’ll take them by surprise, and cut off their communication,
and find Choi in the meantime.
No, we need to secure Choi first.
Choi is a priority too,
what if we lose these pricks too?
No, hostage comes first!
I don’t believe this.
Damn...
Holy shit!
Boss!
I found the Equus Choi was kidnapped in.
Yeah? What about Choi?
I don’t see him, but I’ll check the building.
Call as soon as you find him!
Roger, boss!
Cap, Dong-gyun found the Equus!
He did? Okay, I got it, I’ll go back him up!
I’m feeling it now.
This is it.
Mr. Choi, where could you be?
Shit!
Mr. Choi!
Are you all right?
Can you get up?
We have to get out, up you go!
You okay?
Almost there, we’re almost there.
Stupid fucks...
Here! Here!
Requesting back up!
Suspect found!
I got Kang Hae-sang!
Suspect found, requesting back up!
Requesting back up!
You fuck...
Where are you going, bastard? Get back here!
Isn’t that Choi Choon-baek?
Arrest the brothers! We found Choi!
You found him?!
Yeah! We got him!
Good, we’ll initiate the op!
Why didn’t you answer my call...
What’s wrong?
Dong-gyun!
What’s wrong with you?
Captain... I’m sorry...
Shit!
I let Kang slip through...
What happened?
Call the paramedics! Stay awake!
What’s going on?!
Dong-gyun got stabbed.
What?!
Kang stabbed him and fled!
Fuck...
Where are you?
How many times do I have to tell you?
Central Intersection, near LC Department Store.
Pull out for now, cops are onto us.
What are you saying? Cops?
Where?
I don’t see any here.
Forget it.
Return to the motel.
Let’s regroup there, make sure to ditch the car.
Don’t order around, asshole, there are no cops here!
Jang Ki-chul.
Your mouth could get you killed.
You backstabbing us?
Motherfucker, we’re gonna take the money for ourselves, asshole!
All right.
Listen up!
We got Choi, and now we go for the brothers.
Kang fled after stabbing Dong-gyun, and if we lose these guys,
we can’t get to Kang.
Fuck...
Yo, Det. Ma.
“Yo”? You wanna die?
- Put me on speaker. - Got it.
Go ahead.
Madam, we got your husband back.
He’s safe, so don’t worry.
Jang Isu, do you see a white Avante behind you?
Yeah.
We’re going after those 2 guys.
Motherfucking fuckers!
How will you get them?!
Maintain speed and go straight until I give you the signal, got it?
Understood!
Just trust me.
You’re...
not a cop, right?
Can you tell?
On my cue, block him at the next intersection.
What if they’re really cops?
Shit, who cares.
Cut her off.
Fucking bastard...
Damn you!
- There! Go over there! - Where? Where?
Shoot!
Boss, they went into the department store parking lot!
Department store?
Stay on their tails, we can’t lose them!
Damn it!
Hang on tight!
Get out!
Hurry, get out of here!
What are you doing?!
What will you do?
Hey, what are you doing?!
It’s stuck!
You out of your goddamn mind?!
Toss it, let’s go!
Grab the money! Run!
Wuman, go!
- Stop! Give me the money! - Open up!
Son of a bitch!
You fucker, stop the car!
Let’s get it on, fucking bastard!
Son of a bitch!
Let’s do it, asshole!
Hong-seok, B7!
Stop them no matter what!
Stop the car!
Stop!
I don’t give a shit!
Where are you going?!
Where is he going?
- Spread out, now! - Yes, sir!
Fuck...
Police! Don’t move!
Who the fuck?
I said don’t move!
What should I do with you, fucker?
Fuck! How should I chop you up?
You dodged it?
Hey, you bastard!
Grab him!
Let go of me!
Let me fucking go!
Push him!
- Here! Here! - Don’t move!
Hold still, asshole!
Where’s Mrs. Choi?!
- Suspect in custody. - Mrs. Choi?
Fuck!
Lady!
Where is she?
Damn...
Fucking bitch...
Let me through!
Get over here!
Where’s your fucking driver?!
Where’s my money?
Where is it?
Where?!
Get up, you bitch!
You fuck!
Get out of here!
- Are you okay? - This way!
Wanna go back down?
- One moment! - Police!
Out of the way!
Take that thing away!
Let’s clean up.
Nice!
Very nice!
Shit...
Who the fuck?
Come on!
Step on it, go!
Excuse me! Sir!
Pardon me...
Show’s over, fucking go home!
This is how a new life starts!
Boss!
Jang Isu managed to shake off Kang.
But Kang stabbed patrols and is on the run.
Motherfu...
Send out national APB on Kang.
Okay.
How’s Dong-gyun?
Captain took him to the hospital.
Boss, I can’t reach Jang Isu.
He’s not answering his cell phone, I think he took off with the money.
Two suspects involved in a kidnapping case were arrested.
The police released an APB for a suspect who fled.
after stabbing patrol officers.
They’ve also issued a warrant for Korean-Chinese Jang Isu,
who fled with $2M ransom.
They believe that Jang will smuggle out to China,
and are canvasing the west sea.
Fuck...
Hello?
One-eye.
What’s up?
I need a boat to China.
Boat to China?
There aren’t any at this time...
Come on man, do me a favor!
I’m not Uber, I can’t have a boat on standby for you.
- Come on! - I got none.
I’ll pay quadruple.
There is a boat at quadruple.
But no vacant seat.
Then I’ll pay double of that quadruple, you fuck!
Where are you?
I’ll send my boy to pick you up.
Behind the coastal parking lot.
Okay!
Are you Jang Isu?
Did you bring the money?
Here, open it.
All there.
Go to Haejong Port.
Hey!
Who are you?
You missed the news?
Ma Seok-do, that fucker...
You fucking cocksucker!
Who do you think I am?
Who the hell are you?
I’m Jang Chen of Harbin, you twat!
Asshole, bring it on!
Show me what you got, fucker!
Wait...
Wait, hold on!
Stay right there, asshole!
You bloody cow, don’t come any closer!
Today’s your lucky day, sucker!
No, asshole, get over here!
Round 2?
No, stay there, stay there.
This is the police!
I’m involved in an active case, may I ask you to get off the bus?
Please get off for a moment.
What did you say?
Ma’am, could you get off the bus for a moment, please?
Here, give this to your grandson.
- Thank you. - Take care, be careful.
You’re making me sweat, you wanker.
How did you think about chasing a bus?
You’re smarter than you look.
Better than most.
Why are you on my ass like a dog in heat?
Do you need money?
Do you want a cut?
Split 50-50?
Who’s 50?
You’re a lost cause.
Shit!
You need a good ass whooping.
If you think you’re about to die,
ring the bell, I’ll let you off.
Come here!
Hey.
We’re far from done, get the hell up.
I’m going to kill you...
Your family as well...
Oh man, what a mess...
Sorry about that.
Let’s move!
You all right?
Yeah.
Where’s Kang?
He’s over there.
- Money! Money! - Inside.
Let’s move!
- Wrap it up quickly! - Yes, sir!
What happened to the bus?
Not sure...
Anyway, you did good!
Secure the money!
What the hell?
Look at this guy!
I told him to catch the perp, not tenderize him!
Ma Seok-do, you punk!
Son of a bitch...
Hello?
Buddy!
We got Kang.
You did good, punk.
You got a warrant out for me, and tell me I did good?
We got serial numbers for that cash, once you use it, it’ll be tracked.
I knew it, fuck...
Son of a bitch!
Hello?
Are you taking off with that money?
What did you say?
I almost died trying to get Kang off my back!
Actually, stowaway out of the country.
What?
Call One-eye, and reserve a boat to China tonight, got it?
Stowaway?
Be honest, asshole, you were gonna take off with it, right?
Hello? Hello?
Signal here is bad...
Hello? Jang Isu!
Stupid bastard...
Kang, who murdered 13 people, has been arrested.
Kang targeted and murdered Korean tourists in Southeast Asia,
and was caught while trying to flee after a kidnapping case.
Choi, who sought revenge for the murder of his son,
hired mercenaries to kill Kang, and will be tried.
The police are looking into sending officers to regions
where crimes against Korean nationals are rampant.
Captain, my car’s side mirror is all busted, do I get anything?
Mine too!
Who cares about your car, I got stabbed big time.
You got stabbed with a knife this big, you crybaby.
That machete I was stabbed with,
it was about this long.
Mine went through my body, I thought I was a goner.
- It went through? - Yeah!
My head almost came off!
Dude, stop exaggerating!
I’m not!
After all that work, they get cartilages?
They deserve real beef!
All right, all right.
Cheap ass...
For this occasion, I brought something big.
What is it?
30-year old Ballantine’s!
Wait, wait!
I’m opening it, I opened it! It’s open!
No going back!
It usually has a seal.
I have no idea.
Thank you, salute!
This is not new! It was opened already!
You could tell?
Come on, don’t drink that!
Don’t drink it?
If you’re offended, don’t drink it then.
Yeah don’t drink it...
So I brought a 30-year old ginseng liquor!
This is real.
No wonder.
Seriously.
A drink for Dong-gyun!
Another for you!
Don’t drink unproven stuff!
Thank you!
- You shouldn’t drink. - Nah, I don’t want it.
It tastes great!
Great work everyone!
DIRECTED BY LEE Sang-yong Nah, I don’t want it.
