10 DAYS AGO
Congratulations on your birthday, Ms. Jeon Yang-ja
Oh!
I love it!
Look!
Your mom's tastes haven't changed.
She's switched it up a bit.
These days, she's into defined more than bulk.
Defined?
Definition.
Clarity.
You don't know?
Well, anyway, just give the gift.
She'll like this, right?
As if there's anything that my mom likes.
Still,
how should I comment?
Just give it to her.
You bought it with my money anyway.
But what is it?
Isn't this
too small?
To use when signing contracts.
A fountain pen.
Her initials are engraved here.
It's studded with diamonds.
Made in Germany.
Oh!
Mother.
Yes?
Happy 70th birthday!
Oh, thanks.
I prepared this
thinking a lot about you.
It's for you to use for signing.
Ma'am, you have a visitor.
You’re here?
How are you?
Here, take this.
- Oh. - Where's my money?
I also have some muscles.
If I take it off, will you pay me?
But it's not quite defined.
So?
Got it.
Let's talk outside.
- Ms. Jeon! - What are you doing?
- Why my mother-in-law? - What's wrong?
- Huh? - I should ask for the money directly.
I'm talking about the only son-in-law
possibly losing a body part.
I told you,
to wait just a little more, didn't I?
Coming here and doing this is rude.
Rude?
Then...
Hey.
Wait.
That hurts.
- Yes. - Okay,
I'll give it to you.
In a week?
Tell your mother-in-law, you punk.
Or I'll let her know myself.
Good job.
- Was it okay? - Yes.
Give me two.
Damn it.

EPISODE 2
A notice regarding Gi Su-jong's debt and the Seyoon Building auction
has been sent to the address
We appreciate your cooperation as there may be disadvantages
due to auction or seizure of assets, so please take note
You may now say your final goodbyes to the deceased.
Let's proceed.
Hey.
What are you doing?
Hey,
didn't you say you were at the funeral home all night?
Yeah.
Well, I just came to get something.
Is that so?
Take it with you.
Huh?
Isn't that Yi-gyeong?
What's going on?
Why is she like that?
I kidnapped her.
What
do you mean?
I kidnapped her.
So how much have you lost?
What does it matter?
Can you handle it?
Hey, are you out of your mind?
What have you done?
It's not too late, so hurry and take her back.
I'll get you a taxi, okay?
If anyone asks,
just say you saved her from being kidnapped.
Are you crazy?
Save who?
Am I Tom Cruise?
Hey, listen to me.
I'm not joking here.
This is the last chance.
What last chance?
How long do you plan to keep getting disrespected?
ONE BILLION
I'll let you in on it.
For 500 million.
No.
Hwal-sung, I'll contact Gyun's juniors.
Let's discuss with them legally.
Su-jong.
It's not what you think.
I'm just getting my inheritance money early.
As long as I get the money, no one gets hurt.
There's no need to feel guilty about anything, seriously.
- Hey. - Damn it.
You're just wasting time.
Hey, give me the phone.
- I don't want to. - Hurry up and give it.
Give it here.
Hey, just give it!
I don't want to!
Come on!
Jeez!
Hey, you punk!
- Seriously! - Let go!
Let go! Seriously!
Hey, are you okay?
What's this?
I told you to give me back my phone.
Just take the phone, damn it.
Do whatever you want.
Just live your life being chased by debt, okay?
Hey, why are you talking like that?
Crazy bastard, you sure are strong.
What are we going to do about this?
Hurry and clean the wound and disinfect it.
This is really annoying!
I'll take care of the rest.
You just focus on Yi-gyeong in the cold storage.
Just two days.
Two days...
So, your job
is this.
Three times a day,
you have to give her these shots.
But will Yi-gyeong be okay?
Hey.
It's safe.
Yi-gyeong is my wife.
Have you made a decision?
This is really safe, right?
Hwal-sung, you punk.
I can't believe all this.
Oh my.
You're cold.
I'm sorry.
DAD, WHERE ARE YOU?
Damn.
FREEZER STORAGE
Oh.
What's going on, Da-rae?
There's so much dust in there.
Mom's not feeling well.
Oh, really?
Let's go home.
Mom, eat something.
Dad got this from your favorite porridge place in Buam-dong.
Gi Da-rae,
I can see you.
Don't you have anything to say?
I'm sorry.
Is that all?
I'll do better from now on.
That's not it.
Don't you think you've been acting a bit strange lately?
You and Gyun were like brothers.
But at the funeral, you didn't shed a single tear.
Even during the procession,
you just kept your mind elsewhere, staring at your phone.
And after the cremation, you just disappeared like someone running away.
Isn't that a bit much?
Aren't you sad at all?
Gyun is...
Gyun died.
I know you're worried about the building,
but what's most important?
It's family.
You need to protect us
and be there when we need you.
Here.
What a mess this is.
Hurry and change your clothes.
Thank you.
Seeing you've been checking out the area, you really what's been trending.
You know about that cafe, right?
It's the hottest spot in our neighborhood.
Hello.
- Mr. Oh! - Yes.
First, let's check the vacant second floor,
then we'll look at the basement storage.
You said you needed to use the freezer storage, right?
Yes, that would be great.
I'll get the boiled pork and you can order the tofu kimchi.
REALTOR HEE-JU
This place is just the same.
Gyun really liked it here.
I know, right?
Your brother really loved the boiled pork.
He would always order soju too.
Well, our landlord
isn't picking up the phone right now.
Shall we check the second floor first?
What about Da-rae's funds
for studying abroad?
I had to put out an urgent fire.
I'll fill it up soon.
Dad, you went too far this time.
I'm sorry, Da-rae.
I'll pay you back double.
You trust me, right?
From now on,
whatever it is, tell us everything. I'll help out too.
Of course, I'll do that.
Realtor Hee-ju: No issues with the freezer storage?
I'M ABOUT TO SHOW THE NEW TENANT
Who is it?
Oh, the realtor.
- That leggings woman? - Yes.
I don't like her.
Why not? She helps sometimes.
Honey.
Damn it, I'm done for.
Hold on. I need to go to the restroom.
Okay, here it is.
Okay.
Check out the rooftop too.
It's so nice, right?
The vacant second floor is nice and so is this space too.
If you want,
I'll talk to the owner
and let you use it comfortably.
The phone is currently unable to answer...
Jeez.
This area is popular now,
but once the redevelopment is done, it'll be crazier.
Is this area being redeveloped too?
Well, this building didn't qualify.
That's a relief.
You said the freezer is in the basement, right?
Yes, just a moment.
INCOMING CALL / SEYOON BUILDING OWNER
SEYOON BUILDING OWNER
The phone is currently turned off.
Please leave a voicemail...
Since you're here,
want to check out the freezer too?
Sure.
Taxi!
What's with that guy?
Excuse me, but I have an urgent matter.
Can I borrow your phone?
My battery's dead. Please?
- What's with him? - Please? Just for a moment.
Gosh.
I'll give you a thousand won, okay?
Taxi!
RESERVED
What are you doing? I reserved this taxi.
What?
What's this?
Huh?
Oh.
Excuse me.
Oh my.
- Ms. Jang. - Mr. Oh!
- Going to check the freezer storage? - Yes.
Is the freezer working?
Why? It seemed fine.
I stored beans and all sorts of things until recently.
They told me to take everything out for repairs.
Since then, I've heard nothing.
Then do you want to come see it with us?
Do you have the key?
Of course, I do.
Well, then let's go.
And also, I've kept trying
to call the landlord too.
Jeez.
Congratulations on the Sejeong-ro redevelopment project
You know, our landlord
has the ability to see ahead,
so he set up a frozen storage room.
He must have thought it would be needed by the tenants someday.
Isn't that such a lucky thing?
But doesn't this door feel a bit eerie every time you see it?
Right?
Let's take a look.
Is this it?
I think I hear something inside.
What noise are you talking about?
Sir, please.
But I do hear a sound coming from inside.
Right?
I think I hear something.
I can't hear anything.
That's strange.
Huh?
Yes, this is it.
Okay, it's open.
Hold on, hold on!
- Stop! - Oh, my goodness!
You can't go in there now.
- Oh, seriously. - You scared me.
You can't just open it like that without the owner's permission.
You'll get electrocuted if you go in. It's dangerous.
I'm sorry, I couldn't answer my phone.
There's water leaking everywhere because of the electrical short.
- Please back away for a moment. - Oh, really?
- I was just showing around. - Oh.
Go on now.
- That was close. - So that's what the sound was.
We need to get this fixed fast.
Does Dad have constipation?
I'll be right back from the restroom.
Is that you?
Yes? Who is it?
The phone is currently turned off.
Connecting to voicemail.
After the beep, call charges will apply
If there was something like that, you should have told me earlier.
I'm really sorry for not mentioning it sooner.
I apologize.
So then,
what's going on with the freezer storage?
Well, the pipes burst.
It's a total flood. That's why I mentioned about electrocution before.
This is really
something that happens once every century, right?
Yes.
But once we call the supplier and they check it out,
it's really no big deal. You don't have to worry about it.
Anyway, let's just check the basement next time.
So, is the freezer working well?
Yes, the freezer works great.
The freezing works, yes.
If you sign the contract, I'll make sure
- everything is perfectly set up beforehand. - Sure.
Our boss is a really good person.
He handles everything promptly.
Yes,
The last time, here at the cafe,
we got a good tenant through that.
Yes, while you're chatting, will you excuse me?
This is perfect right now. The landlord...
What's going on?
Is everything done?
Is Yi-gyeong doing well?
- I even covered her with a blanket. - I see.
Oh, right.
The syringe.
Hey.
Where's the syringe?
Hurry and get it out. Hurry up.
- Wait a second. - Damn it.
Where is it?
What is it?
Huh?
Shush!
Damn it.
Hey!
Seriously!
- Jeez. - What the hell are we doing?
Damn it.
Yi-gyeong is no joke.
- Gosh. - You should have done it.
Are you okay?
So, when are you taking Yi-gyeong?
- When the time comes. - Hey!
Since we're on the topic,
let's do one more thing.
What's that?
If you want to save your wife, prepare three billion
Will only communicate with you, Min Hwal-sung
I guess I need to call directly.
Pardon?
What are you surprised about?
But,
if you look here,
it says it'll only contact me.
They want you
to just hand over three billion?
That's not how deals work.
Deals?
Mother,
right now, Yi-gyeong is kidnapped.
That's
the most
important deal.
Do you know
what's most important in a deal?
Seed money.
Seed...
Momentum.
If they see me as an easy target,
I really will become one.
You've been treated like a fool and still couldn't get your act together!
This seems risky.
I'm done talking.
It's not hard at all.
Just call and put on an act.
What kind of act?
A kidnapper act.
Call tomorrow morning.
Tell my mother-in-law
to meet at the Bugwang Skyroad parking lot
at 10 PM, got it?
Hey, this wasn't what we discussed.
You said you'd bring the money here.
The situation has changed, my friend.
What's so hard about it?
Just think of it as making a movie.
Then what if I get caught by your mother-in-law?
She's turning seventy, you fool.
And also, since this is a burner phone,
you can only call me.
Don't call anyone else, okay?
Damn it.
Seriously, damn it...
YOU... REALLY... ARE HOPELESS...
The administrative procedures are all done here.
What about the others holding out?
It's almost wrapped up.
I've sent the notice and it's about to go to the auction.
What about the court?
We'll hire the appraisal firm we won the bid from
to make sure the amount matches.
Okay.
Next.
Hanmaeum Building. This might take a bit longer.
He's a native here.
Even if we offer extra, he won't budge.
Oh.
That grandma.
Is she connected to that old man from earlier?
How long will this take?
When did I tell you to secure the buildings for redevelopment?
And yet you're still at this?
Well,
there's been a recent incident
and the director said I should be careful...
Incident?
You killed a cop.
Do you have any idea how hard it was to keep that quiet?
That was for a good reason...
Reason?
It's because my commands have issues.
Is that what you want to say?
Well...
What?
I said to do whatever it takes,
but never let Real Capital's existence be known.
Don't you remember?
Yes, I'm sorry.
Did you hear from HQ?
Hear what?
Singapore.
They're getting all the focus now.
Singapore?
Don't you get it?
We're all screwed up.
If we hesitate on the redevelopment,
we'll both die.
End it all.
If you got that, then hurry up.
Fast and clean.
And this time,
legally.
Understood.
What's that guy saying?
Should we handle the ongoing issues right away?
No.
Let's wait.
He said to take it easy.
We took care of over a truckload in Korea.
Why such a fuss now?
Then,
do we have to redo with the one buried underground last time?
Well,
that will be treated as an accident.
Don't worry.
Yes, I understand.
You're not leaving?
Oh,
we were supposed to have dinner tonight.
Okay.
I've kidnapped your daughter.
ALIEN
I've kidnapped your daughter.
Oh, this is not right. This won't work.
I've...
Who's there?
Mr. Gi Su-jong?

CALLER ID BLOCKED
Hello?
Mother, put it on speakerphone.
This is Jeon Yang-ja.
Speakerphone.
Is anyone there?
Yes.
Nice to meet you.
Where's my daughter?
What about your son-in-law?
Stop talking nonsense and put my daughter on.
If you just transfer the money,
I'll make sure to send her back safely.
Look here! Do you really have my daughter?
What era do you think this is?
Mother, you can't be handling things in that manner.
This...
What is this?
No!
Yi-gyeong!
Don't touch her!
- No... - Yi-gyeong!
Don't touch her!
Don't touch my daughter!
Yi-gyeong!
CALLER ID BLOCKED
Hello?
Get 3 billion won ready.
Tonight at 10 PM,
at Bugwang Skyroad parking lot.
- I'm hanging up. - Tonight...
CALLER ID BLOCKED
Mother.
These guys are for real.
They're not ordinary people.
Did he say 3 billion won?
Yes, Mother.
Make it 1 billion won in cash
and fill the rest with newspapers.
Can't we do that?
What?
I mean,
you see it all the time in movies.
On top, they stack them
with 10,000 won bills.
It'd be hard to check, right?
I don't think that's a good idea, Mother.
We need to report this to the police...
If you provoke guys like these,
it could cost Yi-gyeong her life...
Shouldn't saving Yi-gyeong
be our top priority, Mother-in-law?
DIVORCE LAWYER HWANG MIN-JUNG
Everyone does that.
Pardon?
I was checking, just in case.
I'm not getting divorced right now.
You're thinking this way, right?
Well...
That's how it starts.
You're a housewife, right?
Yes.
And your daughter?
She's going to college soon.
You need to make a living.
Pardon?
You need to figure out what you can take before the divorce.
Here is your risotto.
- Wow, that looks good. - Thank you.
Enjoy your meal.
You like risotto, right?
I'm saying this as if you're like my niece.
Don't let your emotions take over.
First, we need to get an accurate assessment of assets.
Even better if the husband’s at fault.
Seyoon Building.
52 SEJEONG-RO, YONGDAEMUN-GU, SEOUL
Seyoon Building public value: 2.4 billion Debt: 1.2 billion, Bank loan: 1 billion
There's nothing left after the debts.
I'm a woman in my late 40s, and had my career interrupted
It's true that you will be less in demand in the job market
Please think about it one more time. Reality isn't like a drama
Who’s at fault?
Like cheating or something.
Hey, you're pretty good.
Now, you just have to meet and do the exchange.
I'll bring the money,
so just make sure you bring Yi-gyeong, okay?
So, from now on,
don't call me, okay?
My mother-in-law might come with me too.
In that case,
I should bring that mask along.
Right,
That's right.
- You see, my mother-in-law knows you. - Yeah.
So don't come out and even say anything.
Got it?
And then,
park the car right there...
Give me 1.5 billion.
What?
I said I wanted 1.5 billion.
Hey, don't I deserve that much?
SEOUL YONGDAEMUN POLICE STATION
Ju-ran.
I found the footage from the accident involving Gyun. Want to see it?
Really?
Where was it?
It was caught on a dashcam from a motorcycle doing delivering nearby.
It's a bit far, so it's hard to see.
Wait a second.
This person.
Zoom in on this person.
Isn't he
Gyun's brother-in-law?
It does look like him...
Could it be?
What are you guys doing?
Sergeant Keum,
we're checking Gyun's accident footage and found something strange.
- This person here... - Hey.
I know you're upset, but it's just a hit-and-run.
We've got the driver on the lookout.
And about what I mentioned yesterday about Jung Chang-su and Real Capital,
the one Gyun was investigating...
Cut that out!
I told you to give it up, didn't I?
But the situation…
Are you willing to take responsibility if we mess with a foreign company?
If you want to investigate, bring back some evidence, okay?
Hey, if I'm being honest,
bring me Jung Chang-su's dead body or something!
- Sergeant Keum... - Enough.
A case just broke out. Get your stuff.
What? All of a sudden?
Oh, good timing. Come with me.
Bo-ram!
Follow me!
Where are we going?
Sir? You need to tell me.
Oh, hello, Mr. Min.
Hello.
Hey, plant a bug for Mr. Min.
- Hello. - Hello.
Could you take off your outerwear?
- Your outerwear? - Outerwear? Oh, right.
- You can give that to me. - Oh, here.
It's for your safety, so just bear with it a little.
If you look here, there's a power button.
Press the power button
and you can turn it off when you're done.
Make sure to keep it on when going on site.
We'll make sure you're safe.
Could you put this in your ear?
Don't be too nervous.
- Hwal-sung. - Yes?
Don't grumble and just cooperate, okay?
Yes, ma’am.
Hmm...
Here.
You're all working hard.
Yes.
Why the police?
I already explained enough.
You want me to just hand over 3 billion won?
When the police get involved in these matters,
It’ll get very dangerous, ma’am.
Better to leave it to the experts.
Yes, are you ready?
Got it.
Let's get going, then.
Team 1 will head out first and wait.
Koh Ju-ran, Yoon Bo-ram, and I
will follow Mr. Min, okay?
Yes, sergeant.
- Sir. - Yes?
You've been working hard.
I'm counting on you.
Oh, why all of a sudden?
Ma'am, this is risky. It's not like before.
But can I go with you?
With me?
I can just
ride in your car.
But that's a bit
dangerous.
She's my daughter and it's my money.
I'll stay quietly in the car, just so you know.
Hmm,
okay.
Don't worry.
We're here for you.
I'm going to the bathroom.
The police are all over. Just don't come out.
TPAAO
If you want to be on time, you need to leave now.
Are you okay?
Yes.
I'll be right out.
Huh? Damn it.
Mr. Gi.
Yes, Mr. Oh.
If you needed help, you could have asked me.
I thought you would be busy.
Gosh.
Oh,
why is this so heavy?
It's just that
I had some stuff left.
Your brother-in-law's?
Right.
He left a lot of stuff.
I should move it quickly.
Hey, I'll do it.
How were you supposed to carry this alone?
This isn't working. I can't lift it.
I'll push from behind.
Okay.
Be careful.
Lift it up from below.
This is too heavy for me.
Okay, we're good now.
- Drop it here. - Right here?
Yes, just leave it here, Mr. Oh.
It's okay. Thank you.
You can go in now, Mr. Oh.
Thank you.
By the way,
I helped
you move that.
Could you help me out a bit too?
What do you need?
That one.
Please help me move that plant.
Oh, sure.
Right now.
- Sure. - Yes.
My mom traveled to Vietnam 20 years ago
- and bought this seedling... - Yes.
Over there, not here.
Over there.
Yes.
She bought this seedling.
Okay, got it.
She raised it with care for 20 years,
then when she heard I opened a cafe,
- she gave it to me. - I see.
It needs rain and has to grow naturally.
What do you think? It really suits the building, doesn't it?
Yes.
It looks really great together.
- I need to get going. - Oh, but did you know?
About what?
The bathroom is clogged again.
Then, we have to fix it.
When will you fix it?
This weekend, I'll make sure to take care of it, okay?
- Really? - Take care, Mr. Oh.
Need help?
No thanks.
Did he buy a car without telling me?
Driver, please follow that car.
Once you leave, we'll follow you.
Where is he going?
Mr. Min, where are you headed?
I'm sorry, but
my stomach is hurting.
Sergeant Keum,
Mr. Min will stop by the restroom first.
You go on ahead.
Okay, hurry up then.
I'll be right back.
I'll pull it out right now.
I'll pull it out for just a moment. I'm sorry.
Damn it.
Please use the front door This is the back entrance
What are you doing, sir?
Is there a payphone here?
What's a payphone?
You know, the one where you put in coins to make calls.
Just use a cell phone.
Let me use your cell phone.
What?
What is this?
Damn it.
Gosh, that scared me.
Drop me off here.
Huh?
Is that the one?
Hey, Captain Kang.
When are Detective Ko and Mr. Min coming?
Someone just came in.
Yes, they're leaving soon.
Okay, tell them to hurry.
Damn, is that it?
Hmm,
that's it.
- I think that's it. - What?
Let's do this.
Damn, I can't see.
What are you doing?
What are you doing, Su-jong?
I don't think they're answering.
Hmm...
- Can I get my phone back? - Text message.
Text.
- What? - Hurry and set up texting.
- What text? - Hurry up. There's no time.
Hurry up.
Here you go.
What is this?
Damn, kid.
You use the Cheonjiin layout?
Hey, type it for me.
Come on, do it for me.
What should I type?
"Cops are here. Run."
What?
No, it's not what you think. Just type it.
I think I'll be home late today.
- Welcome. - Hello.
Yes.
I mean, it's just that
I'm going to meet the kidnapper.
The suspect.
Got it.
Okay.
That will be 5,400 won.
Can I have a receipt?
Thank you.
Have a nice day.
What the heck is this?
Damn, fingerprints.
Why is this guy taking so long?
Enter the parking lot slowly.
We'll be hiding behind you, so don't worry.
Sergeant, this is Bo-ram.
We've arrived at the scene.
Is he here?
Don't worry.
Hey, Detective Go.
Tell Mr. Min to move naturally.
Don't be nervous and just move comfortably.
Hurry up!
Police.
What is he saying?
Police.
A suspect has appeared.

Load this up and give her back.
- Okay. - Why are you being so polite?

Now where's my wife?
Are you acting too?
My wife! Where is she?
Is your mother-in-law here?

MAD CONCRETE DREAMS
Did you see the suspect's face?
Why are your hands like this?
It makes you look suspicious.
You know what happened, right?
Only the wife was kidnapped.
What is this?
A bag.
A hiking bag.
So I'm asking
what's inside it?
It's 3 billion won.
That guy took 3 billion won as your ransom.
It's nice.
Is this the guy you saw last night?
You're under arrest for robbery, assault, and kidnapping.
Let go! Let go of me!
Let go!
