The Devil
Oh Seung Hee, Sung Joon Pyo
Oh Seung Ha, Sung Joon Pyo
Jeong Tae Seong.
Oh Seung Ha, Jeong Tae Seong.
I'll give you people a chance.
Now it's time for you to make a decision.
What are you doing here?
I'm Mr. Jo Dong Sub's attorney.
What's he doing here?
He was Sun Ki's attorney.
These are my friends.
I didn't expect to see you here, Detective Kang.
Not everything you see its true.
Human beings can't even perceive the truth that they see.
Why do you think they were chosen?
Perhaps it's like a consideration.
He would need a lawyer to help the people he used.
Was the incident that happened 12 years ago an accident?
Episode 16
Please, save me!
It's just a dream. It's just a dream.
You gave Miss Oh Seung Hee the package that was delivered to her, right?
Yeah.
Nobody was here when the alarm system went off.
Someone turned off the electricity to turn off the security cameras.
I see. You didn't touch anything else, did you?
Everything's the way it is when I came.
Thank you.
Is there anything else missing other than your laptop?
I don't think so.
Was there important information on your laptop?
It's useless to other people.
It's all related to my work.
Do you have any idea who did it?
No, I don't.
Mr. Ban.
These are experts.
They turned off the electricity to turn off the security cameras.
After the alarm went off, they got away before the security people came.
I'm Detective Kang Oh Soo from the Seoul Police Station.
I came again to ask you about the USB stick that was sent to you.
Go ahead.
I found out that the USB stick you gave me was a different one.
What do you mean?
The day after you received the USB stick,
You ask your nurse to get you another one.
And you copied music files on the new one and gave it to me.
I'm blind. It's impossible for me to copy music files.
It's not exactly impossible.
You could've found a way to do it.
I checked that the USB stick you gave me is the same one your nurse got you.
There are a lot of same products.
Why would I lie to you by even going through all that trouble?
You could've wanted to hide something on it to protect someone.
Who do you mean?
I'm talking about Mr. Oh Seung Ha.
I don't understand what you are talking about.
I don't understand either.
If what I think is on the USB stick is true,
I don't understand why you'd want to protect him.
He does not need anyone's protection.
I don't know why you're investigating my brother,
But I do know he is good hearted than anyone else. He's lived a tough life.
I trust him. I believe he would never do anything to harm others.
Sometimes, if you over love someone, it can hurt the person you love.
If you really care about your brother, you need to tell me the truth.
I have nothing more to say. I'd like you to leave.
Call me whenever you change your mind.
Your nurse has my number.
I didn't find anything suspicious.
I found nothing to prove that Oh Seung Ha was Jeong Tae Seong.
Really? What is his relation to Sung Joon Pyo.
I think they personally know each other a bit.
That I already know.
There was no special information.
What happened to your boy who got arrested?
He said someone hired him.
Someone else? Who?
He doesn't seem to know.
I made sure he never exposes your name.
You don't have to worry about that.
What do you mean?
It wasn't Jeong Tae Seong who died in the car accident. He's still alive.
Explain so that I can understand.
We thought it was Jeong Tae Seong because we found his student card and other belongings.
But no one could identify his face.
And two years later, someone saw Jeong Tae Seong.
That's not enough evidence to say he's still alive.
I went to his school and there isn't even one photo of him.
His photo in the school record was gone.
You mean he removed it on purpose?
Only the student and the family can have access to student records.
I think he went to school himself and removed his photos.
Then, he could be the manipulator living under someone else's name.
Right.
This isn't good.
How do we find this guy?
I'll find out who Jeong Tae Seong is.
Don't you know you're officially off the case?
I know.
Then, you know how you should act.
I'll work on the case unofficially.
It's a tarot card.
Why are there two this time?
Is there a letter?
What's that?
It's a part of the Gates of Hell.
Distrust and betrayal will lead the friends to the Gates of Hell.
[Suk Jin]
Hey.
Something was delivered.
Was it a tarot card?
Yeah.
Were there two?
There was only one and nothing else.
I'll be right there.
[Sun Ki]
Okay.
A tarot card has been delivered to me.
There was only one?
That doesn't matter! Who the heck is messing with me?
I'll meet you at your house.
Your friends got tarot cards delivered?
Yeah, I've got to go.
Does that mean both of them have been selected as the next victims?
This is Oh Seung Ha.
This is Gyeon Jong Chul.
You remember me?
You want to hire Mr. Oh as our corporate lawyer?
Yeah.
But he was Mr. Gweon's…
He's one of kind.
He has a sharp look in his eyes.
He's got guts, too.
He literally showed his hostile feeling against me.
Why do you want to hire him then?
It's better to make him as one of our men, instead of making him an enemy.
If it's the killer of Mr. Gweon and Dae Sik, he's a maniac.
Who on earth is playing a prank on us?
It can't be Yeong Chul right?
No, it can't be him. I've met him. He hasn't changed at all.
But I can't think of anyone else. Tae Hyeon's family is all dead.
What are you thinking about?
Huh? What?
Are you trying to use this to frame me?
What are you talking about?
Are you thinking of killing me and making it look as if I was killed by this murderer?
Don't be ridiculous.
Don't forget that the sender of this card considers me as a friend.
That's why he let me know about your weak spot.
Wake up. He sent the photos to make our friendship like this.
You fell for it.
If you know everything so well, you should tell Oh Soo the truth.
Where are the cards?
Hey, Seung Hee.
Are you doing well?
Yeah, how are you feeling?
Detective Kang was here this morning.
Now you know for sure that I'm not the killer.
You should've trusted me.
It's not right to make a suspect out of your friend, you know.
That's not important now.
What should we do now?
All the incidents happened to people who had grudges against each other.
People who had grudges?
Yeah, think carefully of anyone who could have grudges against you.
I don't know.
Who could have a grudge against me?
There's no one that I know of.
Are the two of you hiding something from me?
No, I'm not.
I'm not, either.
What's there to hide from you? Especially in this situation.
What I do know is that we need to trust and protect each other.
That's the message the manipulator left me.
The message?
Yeah.
Why don't you just put Yeong Chul or anyone who's suspicious in jail?
I don't have the evidence.
The police will go undercover in front of your house from now on.
All incidences happened at night.
I want you two to come home at the same time.
If you're going to be late, let me know where you'll be.
How long do we have to do this?
There's no other choice.
Remember that we have to protect each other.
It's been a long time.
Did you find anything useful on my laptop?
Your voice makes me feel sure now.
Didn't you ask me to follow Sung Joon Pyo because of Kang Dong Hyun?
I'm sorry to tell you that Ssangkal is being accused for everything.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
I didn't tell him about you. Think of it as an old friend's generosity.
I'm not a man who people can order around.
Money is the only thing that can move me.
But I still think it's a bit unfair for me to stay quiet for nothing.
I know your little secret. I deserve something in return, don't you think?
Do you remember the Mugen Night Club case in Guro-dong last fall?
It looks like an ordinary homicide case caused by beating.
But you actually planned it to kill Yi Dong Beom, who was trying to take over Gangnam.
It's case most likely to end unsettled due to lack of evidence.
What does that have to do with me?
I have a tape that recorded you ordering his murder.
A lawyer should not give false information.
I apologize for tapping your phone.
If something happens to me, that tape will go straight to the prosecutors.
You should at least have something like this when you threaten someone.
Are you bluffing like you used to when you were a boy?
I used to back then but not anymore.
You might have to take my orders instead of my money from now on.
Your orders?
Let's just say I'm your client.
I don't know who it's going to be, but someone's going to hire you with a lot of money.
It depends on their decision?
What are you talking about?
I'll give you some advice as an old friend.
It's very dangerous to be devoted to money.
From now on, I'll be the one contacting you.
Where did I stop?
When did you get here?
Why are you so startled?
No, I'm okay.
Oh, I left the strawberry jam, Han Eul's mom gave me in your car.
I left it at the front desk.
Is that why you came all the way here?
No, I was just in the area and remembered.
Sora called. She sounded so cheerful.
I'm sure she misses her mother a lot.
I'm sure she does.
How's her trial going?
We'll have to see, but I think she'll be allowed to go on probation.
Hey
Hi.
Are you doing well?
Thanks to you, I am.
I was going to call you.
Your sister must have called you.
Yes, it would've been better for you to have come to me to ask questions.
I had to ask Miss Oh Seung Hee, not you.
I guess you forgot what I told you.
Stress is critical to my sister.
If you have any other questions, you can ask me.
I'll call you.
I'll be waiting.
I'll be going
Bye.
Sir.
Yeah.
Your flight to Jeju Island is at 3:30 pm tomorrow.
When am I coming back?
I booked you a ticket after 4:00 pm.. Since you are playing golf with the mayor.
Good, we'll be drinking really late, so schedule the golf after 9:00 am.
Okay.
What are you going to do about Sun Ki?
The sooner the better for this kind of business.
My father is going out of town tomorrow.
As you know, my father doesn't like things to get very violent.
Do you understand me?
Yes, but we need to be careful of…
Hold on.
What's up, Sun Ki?
I have something to tell you.
It's very important?
Important?
Yes, it's very important. I need to tell you in person.
If Congressman Kang finds out about this, he'll be very upset.
What's all this fuss about?
I'll tell you in person.
It's important that reporters don't find out.
I think I know what this is about.
If you feel that way, then I'll have to tell the reporters myself.
If you think I'm threatening you, then there's nothing I can do.
I'm trying to tell you this for your own sake.
The sooner the better.
I'll meet you at my office in two days.
Not your office. Let's meet somewhere else.
Don't tell Suk Jin about this.
You'll know why you shouldn't when you hear my story.
Yeah. Okay.
I'll see you then.
Is that Sun Ki?
Yeah, he said he has something important to tell me.
Did he say anything else?
He's threatening me with the reporters.
What were you saying?
Nothing. I'll take care of Sun Ki.
Wait.
I hope you didn't misunderstand me.
When I told you to take care of him completely, I didn't mean for you to think of the extreme.
You're more careful than I am.
I just want you to try something else since money didn't work in the past.
I understand.
This is Na Suk Jin. I need you to do me a job.
No, Congressman Kang doesn't know about this.
I'll pay you whatever you want.
I don't know who it's going to be, but someone's going to hire you with a lot of money.
Good job. Prepare the rest like I told you before.
This sculpture is called the Three Shades, a figure of the Gates of Hell.
What does it stand for?
It represents the three animals that cornered Dante in the woods.
Each represents pleasure, arrogance and greed.
It foreshadows that someone is cornered because of one's own fault or false decision that eventually leads to death.
The Three Shades are referring to my two friends and me?
Two of my friends were appointed as the next victims.
Does this card mean the same as the Three Shades?
Eight of Swords, Dilemma.
It stands for an internal clash.
Internal clash?
Yeah, the lady with her eyes covered has eight swords pointed at her.
The person who got this is against everyone else.
Everyone is deceiving one another.
At the end, all the people will point their swords at each other.
Point their swords at each other…
Yeah, the bloody background and the lady's black dress means death.
Then, what does the Two Swords mean?
It stands for dilemma.
The lady with her eyes covered is standing alone on a night sea with double-bladed swords.
She has a sword in each hand, but she doesn't know whether she should use it or not.
Since she can't see, she doesn't know if she'll injure herself or other people.
Does that mean she'll die?
There's hope.
The stars in the night sky show hope.
But she can't find the stars by herself because she can't see.
Why are you trying to ruin your life?
Do you think you'll feel better if Sung Joon Pyo dies?
Has Mr., Sung Joon Pyo gotten better?
What's your relation with him?
I know him pretty well.
Mr. Sung Joon Pyo passed away just a while ago.
What's going to happen to Hwang Dae Pil now?
It's still a car accident.
It'll end up as an accidental death due to occupational causes.
Oh Soo's suspended for three months.
Three months? But Hwang Dae Pil didn't press charges.
I think Oh Soo's past had a negative effect on the decision.
I knew this would happen. People were talking a lot about it.
What are we going to tell Oh Soo?
Am I suspended?
Three months.
I see.
All that matters is that we arrest the manipulator.
Jaemin and I will keep an eye on Kim Yeong Chul , you stay with your friends.
Nothing's wrong with you hanging out with your friends.
Did you hear that Sung Joon Pyo died?
[Kang Oh Soo]
Did you wait long?
Sung Joon Pyo died.
I'm sorry to hear that.
Is that why you wanted to see me?
I remembered what Hae In told me once.
No matter how dark a tunnel lays in front of you, have faith in yourself and enter it.
If I can save myself, I'll be able to find the light of salvation.
Why are you saying that to me?
I entered the tunnel, and I saw you in the dark.
Is that so?
I can't find anything to prove that you're Jeong Tae Seong, but I know.
I know you're Jeong Tae Seong, and you've been manipulating everything.
That's a hasty judgment.
I can see you clearly in the dark.
If that's who you think I am, then, you shouldn't be seeing me like this.
You're showing your cards to your opponent.
It doesn't matter.
I'm going to reveal who you truly are and arrest you in a justifying way.
I wanted to tell you that.
As a lawyer, I don't think that'll be possible.
The only way to prove that you're right is for the criminal to confess to his crime.
Each crime leaves evidence.
You were release as self-defense even when there was evidence against you.
I looked up the case from 12 years ago in curiosity.
Even though you committed a crime, it was covered up.
You even accused the victim.
The manipulator knows it all.
Do you think you pleading for justice will convince him?
I know I was a messed up coward.
But it's not right for you to take other peoples lives because of your hate and resentment against me.
You should tell that to yourself.
From now on, I'd like to see some evidence when we talk about this topic.
Evidence to prove that I'm Jeong Tae Seong, the manipulator.
Don't think that you are God.
Not everything will work the way you planned it.
I'm quite worried.
How will an emotional guy like you win the game you're playing against the manipulator?
A man who thinks people's lives are a game, already lost against himself.
A man that is blinded by his rage of revenge and thinks it is justifiable for him to use people to kill others,
has already lost the right to judge others.
I don't think you have to right to say that.
It doesn't make sense for you to want to be easily forgiven
For the murder you committed and request justification in others.
Until I find the evidence, I will keep the thought to myself.
Thinking about the trust that people I care about, have in you, makes me hope that I misjudged you.
The police…
Hae In.
Are you alright?
I think so.
I saw this boy I saw a long time ago.
Where did you meet him?
At my old neighborhood 12 years ago.
How old is he?
I think he's about 16 or 17.
He might be Jeong Tae Seong.
Didn't you say he died in a car accident?
He might be alive.
A man who thinks people's lives are a game, already lost against himself.
Oh Soo did it.
Oh Soo stabbed Tae Hyeon with a knife. I saw it with my own eyes.
This can't be true.
Self-defense?
He said we can apply for a new trial. We'll apply for a new trial, mom.
There is no God. If there is, he can't be doing this to us.
He can't be doing this to us, Tae Seong.
Don't give up, mom. We have to make things right.
The truth will be revealed in the next trial.
When are you coming back from Jeju Island?
I'm leaving in the afternoon, so I'll be back before night.
Then, have dinner at home. I'll have everything ready.
Okay. My father's not home. You should go visit your parents. It's been a while.
I'll stay at home.
Why are you looking at me like this?
I'm leaving for a day, but it feels so long.
What are you looking at?
Can you forget what happened?
I'm minding my own business, so you do that same.
Hee Soo's going to Jeju Island on a business trip.
Really? So what?
I'm telling you in case you stop by to see him.
Don't worry about me. Go to work.
Are you staying at home today?
Yeah. Why?
Just asking.
Business is over between you and me.
Thank you for coming.
No problem.
We'd like you to become our hotel lawyer.
We have three lawyers, but we haven't replaced Mr. Gweon's place.
As the defense attorney for Mr. Gweon's case, this is an unexpected offer.
Actually, it was my father's idea.
That's even more unexpected.
My father thinks highly of you.
You have to get going if you want to catch your flight after the meeting.
I didn't know it was already time to go.
I think we have to end our meeting here. I have a business trip to Jeju.
It must be because of the hotel in Jeju Island.
Yes.
I'll be looking forward to your positive answer.
I'll think about it.
Oh Seung Ha dropped out in his freshman year, so he doesn't have a photo.
Hey. Is everything okay?
Yeah. I have to work to work late tonight. I'll be home a bit late.
It feels weird to have you tell me all that.
Me too.
Are you taking your car?
Yeah.
Call me when you get home.
Okay.
What about Sun Ki?
I think he's going to stay home.
Okay.
The police will be outside at night.
I want you to be extra careful.
Will they be able to save themselves?
He might be Jeong Tae Seung.
Thank you, too.
No, I have never lived in that neighborhood.
[Are you coming straight home after work? I feel lonely without Sora.]
[I don't want my sweet mommy to feel lonely. I'll run home.]
Are you going to stay at home?
Yeah, I need to save up some energy for tomorrow's important engagement.
What is it?
I know you are trying to protect me, but I need some privacy.
It feels like you're watching me.
I'll be outside, so call me when anything happens.
What can happen at home?
Oh Soo.
Have you gotten any sleep? You look horrible, man.
Are you worried about me?
I just think that you are pathetic.
If I were you, I'd quit my job and live comfortably.
Why make life so miserable?
Get something to eat.
This is Kang Oh Soo.
Hello?
This is Hwang Dae Pil.
If I tell the truth, will it be taken into consideration of circumstances?
Yes, it will. Where are you? Let's talk in person. I'll go where you are.
[Under inspection]
This is driving me nuts.
I think Kim Yeong Chul is a workaholic. He hasn't left his office at all.
Are you sure he is there?
Yeah, of course.
You jerk!
Suk Jin! Please, save me! Suk Jin!
That's enough.
I said that's enough!
Suk Jin, I'm very sorry.
It's all my fault. Suk Jin!
Please, don't kill me. Don't kill me, Suk Jin!
That's enough!
Get out.
He'll cause problems if we don't end it here.
I make the orders.
I didn't want to do this.
This wouldn't have happened if you had been understanding.
I'm sorry. I wont ever do it again.
Do you know who made me do this?
It's Hee Soo
You thought you could blackmail him with a dirty scandal, but you were wrong.
Even though you know the secret, you're not safe from him.
We'll both end up dead.
If we both want to survive, we have to be smart.
This is the money I gave your mother.
A plane ticket to Hong Kong leaving in a couple of days is in there too.
Get yourself to the hospital and stay in Hong Kong for a while.
I'll make something up to Hee Soo and Oh Soo.
What do you want?
Give this to Mrs. Kang.
Who is this from?
I don't know.
Oh Soo, it's me. I just got home.
Okay, is Sun Ki home?
Yeah. I'm so tired. I need to get some sleep.
Okay.
Hello
It's me.
Hee Soo.
You look horrible.
I wanted to tell you the truth to help you.
Suk Jin betrayed you.
I know... that's why you wanted to see me.
I appreciate it.
I thought a lot about what I should do.
To put an end to this.
I really did.
And I made my decision.
Your friend sent me this, right?
I think so.
But this will never happen again. Don't worry.
What do you mean?
Kim Yeong Chul got out of a cab in front of your friend's place.
What? Okay.
Is nobody home?
Your friends... aren't letting me down.
