- No murderers in our schools! - Kick him out! Kick him out!
What did our children do to deserve this?
- Kick him out! - No murderers in our schools!
Kick him out! Kick him out!
- That's him! - You bastard!
Please stand back.
Over here! Mr. Cho! Look this way!
- You bastard! - Get him out of there.
This is outrageous!
How can you let our kids go to school with a murderer? Kick him out!
The prisoner Cho Gyu-cheol has shown remorse.
In prison, he has abided by all the rules and been an example to his co-detainees.
Taking into consideration the young age and that it was his first offense,
the committee feels there is no risk to public safety and releases him on parole.
Sir, what are your thoughts
about Gyu-cheol's release?
I don't get it.
He serves a minimum sentence and then gets released?
Then, once he's out, his admission back to school
is signed as if they were expecting it.
Something's wrong. It's all too smooth, like it was planned.
Sir, this might be worth looking into, right?
The principal is responsible for student admissions.
Cho Gyu-cheol has paid for his crime,
and we at the Bureau do not have the authority
to stop a student who wishes to return to school.
If I did stop him…
that would be revenge.
Where's Hwa-jin?
He said he had to take care of some personal business.
Whereabouts?
TEACH YOU A LESSON
You look good in that uniform. Hm?
No need to be nervous. I'm here on official business for the Bureau.
You're a test case.
We want to see if kids like you can be rehabilitated after time in jail.
To see if you can handle civilian life.
You know, to see whether
you deserve another chance in life.
I will
do my best, sir.
There's no need.
Just live a normal life.
Eat, sleep, breathe, study.
Like a normal student.
You think you can do that?
I'm sure you understand what I mean.
This is Gyu-cheol. He's been readmitted to school.
He's a little older than you, so be nice to him.
- Say hi. - Okay.
I hope that me being here won't interrupt your studies.
Nice to meet you.
- What's that? - Jong-su.
The fuck are you doing?
No, agh!
I'm your teacher. How could you?
Seong-gu, please, call 911!
- Here. Give it back to him. - Dumbass. You're no fun.
Hey, man.
Is it true that you killed a teacher?
I heard it was a woman.
Holy shit, you see that? See that look in his eyes?
You wanna stab me, don't you?
I see that this killer wants to study.
Oh, you think I'm being unfair, mm? Want me to call you "big bro?"
No need for that. Call me whatever you want.
Damn, dude, you're cold.
Just keep your head down. If you don't, the Bureau will show up. Right?
And then you're fucked. You understand?
Mm. I'll do that. Thank you very much.
Whoa. Time to go.
- Later, alligator! - After a while, crocodile!
Don't forget your knife. Fucking loser.
- Seong-gu, let's go. - Oh, okay!
Let me see that.
- Damn, that's awesome. - See this?
Awesome my ass.
- Hey, Seong-gu? - Yeah?
- Holy shit! I did it! - What?
- I got to the next level! - No way. You're shitting me!
MINISTRY OF EDUCATION
- This is unbelievable! - What is it?
We just received a report about a student who assaulted a teacher
for telling him not to use his phone in class.
The student challenged him to a Yatcha fight.
"Yatcha fight?" What's that?
It's a bare-knuckle fight with no rules and no referees.
Despite all our efforts, this kind of thing keeps happening.
Hm? What are you doing? Come on in
- Sir, there's someone here to see you. - Well, let them in.
Okay.
Mm.
Cho Gyu-cheol, what, may I ask, brings you here?
Well, I've got something to report, sir.
- You've got some nerve coming here! - Whoa!
This is the ERPB,
and our Bureau is open to all students.
Have a seat.
Tell me. What brings you here?
Sir, I've come here to report a case of bullying.
When I was in school, Ms. Choi told me that part of being a student
was to protect other students who were having a hard time.
- It was all part of growing up. - Don't you dare mention her name!
Inspector, please.
Aren't you furious about this?
Inspector Han-rim,
I suggest that you go get some fresh air. Hm?
Han-rim, let's go.
Bye.
Continue what you were saying.
I'm sorry. I apologize. I shouldn't speak of Ms. Choi.
This is the student I believe is being bullied.
I don't trust him. He's definitely up to something.
Maybe. But his report, well, it seemed pretty convincing.
Deputy Bong is right.
Gyu-cheol is a student like any other. We should act accordingly.
In that case, Deputy Director Bong will be in charge.
Yes, sir.
No, it should be me, sir.
Let me do it, Inspector. You can't do this.
Give me a good reason why I shouldn't do it.
- Aren't you going to stop him? - Why should I?
Why did the inspector cross the road?
You gotta be kidding.
I guess you've heard it before.
This is not the time or the place for your silly jokes.
- Get out of here. - Okay.
What the hell do you think you're doing laughing?
I'll see you guys later.
Geun-dae.
- Come on! - Not the right time.
Don't try to stop me
from crossing the road.
I can't believe I laughed. Jeez, what's wrong with me.
- Bong, stop it! This is not funny. - I'm sorry.
- I did it again. - It's funny.
JINWON HIGH SCHOOL
Do you mean Seong-gu from my class? You're saying that he's being bullied?
Wow. To be honest, I'm surprised. I haven't noticed anything alarming.
He's got a lot of friends, and when I spoke to him,
he said he was really enjoying his time at Jinwon High.
Next time in karaoke, stop singing that song "Emergency Room!"
- Hyeon-tae? - Yeah?
- Stop stealing my chips! - I'm hungry.
Okay.
Shit. What's going on? What?
Hey, what the hell?
- Huh? - It's not loading.
Where the fuck did Seong-gu go?
Oh.
Uh…
Why are you so anxious? I didn't mean to scare you.
Uh…
- You're from the Bureau, is that it? - Mm.
And do you know why I'm here?
No, I've no idea.
I was told there was some bullying happening here.
- I can tell you there's no bullying here. - You mind if I take a look?
Okay.
- And your mouth. - What?
- Say, "Ah!" Come on. - Ah. Ah. Ah.
Mm. At least they don't beat you.
Sir, it's not what you think.
I have to go now.
You're Mr. Wi-Fi?
My guess is you turn on your hot spot so that the other kids can play games.
Like a human Wi-Fi.
You're always in the middle of the crowd so they can get the signal.
And you're always the first to pull out your phone.
I'm assuming you do that so the other kids can connect to your hot spot.
And you are the only one with a power bank in your backpack.
That way, Wi-Fi never shuts down.
Now, you've got this all wrong.
I really have to go. I'm serious. Have a nice day. Bye.
Hey, here he is.
Seong-gu, what's up? What are you doing here?
I was doing nothing. I was just walking around and this guy from the ERPB, he--
- Son of a bitch. The ERPB. - You should watch your language.
What brings you to our school, Inspector?
Oh! Now I get it. You're here for Gyu-cheol.
In fact, I'm here for you. I was told you're quite the bully.
- Me, a bully? - Mm.
Who told you that?
Nobody was bullied! I said that nobody was!
You can't just accuse innocent people like that.
Inspector, look what you've done to him.
It's okay, Seong-gu. Relax, man. Even the Bureau can make mistakes, okay?
May we be excused now?
Sure.
- Have a lovely day, sir. - Mm.
Let's go. Seong-gu, you had me really worried back there.
I thought you'd vanished on us.
Why are you all nervous and sweaty, dude?
- Hey, help me out here! - Dope! I got to legendary level.
- Don't engage. Don't attack. - Okay.
Hey, Geun-dae?
- Yeah? - You're Bong Geun-dae. I know you.
- Oh yeah… - It's been forever.
- How have you been? Everything okay? - Fine, thanks. How about you?
Hey, I heard you're a civil servant. Someone told me where you work.
- The ERPB, that was it. - Hey, shh!
Yeah, the ERPB. That's really cool.
Listen, I'll call you back later. Sorry, I gotta go.
Wait up! Bong Geun-dae!
- One of you, attack! - I got you.
Guys, let's go.
Yeah, sure, after this game. You got him? I'm on my way.
- Why are you back already? - This way, come on.
- What's up? - I think that I blew it.
What's going on?
- Put them on. Good. - Why are you giving them to me?
- Hey, what are you doing! - Listen to me! Stop moving.
Take this and put it in your ear.
- Why? - It's an earpiece.
Is that eye shadow?
- What are you… - Stay still!
There, that's good.
Just remember one thing.
You're a dork.
And a dork never makes eye contact.
A dork?
- Fuck this shit. - What the fuck? What's with you?
I said let's fucking go, dumbass. Something's not right.
- What do you mean? - You suck at this. Stop fucking around.
- Okay, we'll leave. - I said let's go!
What the f…
Jeez, bitch, you fucking blind? Why don't you watch where you're going?
Don't look him in the eye!
You're one lucky chick.
Get the fuck out of my way. Don't let me catch you here again. Move it!
It's your fault for being an asshole.
Good job. You did well controlling your emotions.
That little son of a…
Testing… Ah, ah.
I think I've cloned Chi-ho's voice.
- Check it. - Mm.
Hey, it's me, Chi-ho.
- Dude, can you give me the password? - Ooh!
- Oh! - Shit!
Make the call.
Okay, calling Jang Seong-gu now.
- I'm a bit nervous. - Don't worry. Just act natural.
Hello?
It's me Chi-ho.
I'd really appreciate it if you could kindly give me the password.
Chi-ho, is that really you? It doesn't sound like you.
- Who is this? - Give me that.
Listen to me, dumbass. Who else do you think this is?
Give me the fucking password!
Sorry. The password is, "W-I-F-I," Wi-Fi.
The account belongs to Seong-gu, and yet he doesn't have a profile.
It looks like all those guys are sharing the same account.
I checked Seong-gu's account on the food app.
It includes a ton of different names and addresses.
Some of the orders are over 100,000 won.
More than 20 of these games require paid subscriptions.
None of that makes sense unless he's been skipping class.
There's a lot of e-scooter rentals.
It says he's using one right now.
The app says a food delivery has just arrived.
Right now, he's playing online.
It appears that Seong-gu is capable of playing online
while riding a scooter and eating all at the same time.
Whoa!
Oh!
Do you actually have to imagine it first? Seriously, Bong!
So, this isn't just about the money?
What did you find out about the scam cases?
I found this online page where victims share information with each other.
I looked up Seong-gu's name.
It all refers to undelivered items, eat-and-runs, and resale apps.
These people are reporting fraud.
So Seong-gu's friends posted fake listings using his name,
then take the money and run.
But there's way too much activity for this to be just one person.
You're the fucker who scammed me.
Hey, you scammed me out of my AirPods.
Listen. It wasn't me. Seriously, I didn't do anything, okay?
Someone stole my account. I'm telling you--
Piece of shit!
I'm telling you, it wasn't--
I'm gonna kill you, you fucking asshole. You hear me?
Yeah? You son of a bitch! You fucking bastard!
I'm gonna kill your punk ass. You think you can rip me off?
You're a fucking thief! Give me my money back!
Shit!
You let yourself get caught.
What the fuck, man?
If I don't pay him back, he's gonna hurt me, Chi-ho.
So what?
I'm really sorry to ask you, but I was hoping you could help me out.
- I don't have that kind of money. - Tough luck.
I don't have any money either.
You can handle it. Hm?
Chi-ho,
I'm begging you.
For fuck's sake.
I promise I'll take care of this as soon as I can.
Yeah, okay, but when?
Are you saying I'm a liar?
No. Of course not. No.
Seong-gu, just imagine one second if I did nothing.
All of this stuff is under your name. Right?
You're the only one who'd be screwed. But it's okay. I said I'd take care of it.
You should be thankful.
Ma'am, my son has told me that Chi-ho has been using his account
to buy food, rent scooters, and to buy gaming subscriptions.
It's all there. He's spent enormous sums of money.
That's your story.
I've asked Chi-ho to come home early so he can explain his version.
Is that you?
Hey, Seong-gu.
Sit down. It's okay.
Did you just send this to my sister?
- You sent her that? You DM'd her? - Oh my God! What is this?
Seong-gu, was it you? Did you send this filthy video to her?
It wasn't me, Mom, I swear. I swear I didn't. It was Chi-ho who did it.
Are you saying that Chi-ho sent this filth to his own little sister?
- That's ridiculous! - Are you out of your mind?
- This is horrendous. - Mom!
- I'm gonna call the police. - It's not true.
Please no, wait. It's my fault.
I'm so sorry for troubling you. I apologize on my son's behalf.
I'm begging you. Forgive him.
- I'm warning you. - It's absolutely…
Next time, I'm gonna send it to all the girls in our class.
Don't you ever snitch on me again.
- It's a mistake. - Ji-hyo, are you okay?
Let's forget about it. Sorry. Thank you, ma'am. I'm so sorry.
- Let's go. - Are you a pervert?
- I didn't do it! I swear. - Shut up! Get out.
- I didn't do anything! - Goodbye.
Are you okay? How are you feeling?
Mm-hmm.
You're right.
Of course I'm right. Jeez.
Chi-ho,
is it okay if I answer it?
You see I'm playing a game? It's gonna lag if you take the call.
It's my mom.
Shit. Okay, go ahead.
Hi, Mom.
What the hell is going on? What have you done?
I can't believe how much you owe.
The last time, when I paid your bills, I said that was the end of it.
And yet, how many times is it now?
I just can't make sense of any of this.
Can you explain it to me? Don't you have anything to say? Huh?
- Are you gonna tell me it's Chi-ho again? - It wasn't me, Mom, honestly.
After everything that you put me through, you still lie to my face!
Why are you doing this to me? I don't understand why!
I… I can't take it.
Sir, Seong-gu would like to tell you about what Chi-ho has done to him.
You'll tell him everything?
Yeah.
Gyu-cheol told me that
I can trust you.
That I can trust the Bureau.
Are you afraid the ERPB won't believe you?
All I can tell you, from my experience, is that
if the Bureau existed
two years ago…
I'm sure that I wouldn't have killed anyone.
And that no one would have died.
Inspector Na, he'll be different.
He's just the same as Choi Ga-yun.
HE USED MY IDENTITY ON VARIOUS WEBSITES TO SCAM PEOPLE
Yeah?
Excuse me.
Uh, have you heard the news?
The school board has been called.
Lee Chi-ho has
reported Seong-gu, accusing him of bullying.
What?
SCHOOL VIOLENCE DELIBERATION COMMITTEE
AFFECTED STUDENT
ACCUSED STUDENT
Mr. Chairman, the ERPB has no jurisdiction in this school
and cannot play a part in this inquiry.
I must ask that he leave.
Well, in fact, the Bureau received a report,
and we are investigating similar events that occurred at the same time.
I am here simply to observe.
- You shall not be allowed to speak. - Right.
In that case, the violence committee may proceed to review this case of bullying
at Jinwon High School.
We'll begin by hearing a statement from the victim's counsel.
Even before the incident was properly reported,
Jang Seong-gu had been spreading false rumors concerning my client, Lee Chi-ho,
and called the ERPB, effectively branding him a bully.
Mr. Lee currently suffers from severe psychological distress.
We're submitting his psychiatric records as evidence.
DEPRESSIVE DISORDER PANIC DISORDER
We'll now hear from the accused. Please make your statement.
Um, well, I…
None of this is fair.
I am…
I'm the victim here.
Chi-ho and his friends, they stole all my accounts.
They used my ID to run scams, to buy stuff, to order food deliveries,
to play online games.
Do you have any evidence?
You claim they stole it, but do you have proof?
I don't really--
As you can see, the accused has no evidence to back his claim.
Mr. Chairman, I would argue that these claims are utterly false
and constitute character defamation.
I play games at an internet cafe.
But at the same time, my account shows people renting scooters,
people ordering food, selling stuff, which goes to prove--
You're right. Lee Chi-ho has mentioned borrowing your account
several times for urgent needs.
- It wasn't just a few times! - Mr. Jang, please be quiet.
Don't interrupt.
My client borrowed your account and ID once or twice to stream games,
and used the account to rent a bike on occasion when he had no other choice.
He acknowledges this and has already paid back what he owed
because my client wanted to help his friend.
He never paid me anything at all.
You might want to check your account.
TRANSACTION HISTORY
LEE CHI-HO - LOAN REPAYMENT DEPOSIT 1,000,000 WON
My client paid his debts. In return he has suffered grievous psychological stress.
He's been labeled a bully.
He's been ostracized from his friends, based on false accusations.
This is not simply slander.
My client's very future is being threatened by these lies.
This is a vile and coordinated attempt to destroy my client's reputation.
Rest assured we are not seeking criminal charges against the accused.
However, based on the psychiatric reports
and the fact that his ability to pursue his studies is impeded,
we feel that financial compensation would be a suitable settlement.
Financial compensation?
How much do you want?
Mrs. Lee is a truly admirable woman with a big heart.
Considering that the events happened between children,
she would accept a sincere apology as adequate settlement.
Mrs. Jang, will you accept the proposal?
Mrs. Lee, excuse me.
Thank you for your understanding.
I'll make sure this never happens again.
I appreciate how understanding and compassionate you've been.
Chi-ho, please forgive him. All right?
I am truly sorry for all he has done and what he has put you through.
That's the situation.
Yes, sir, understood.
- Can you believe this? - Huh?
Chi-ho's guilty, yet he's the one who convenes the committee
and he even hires a fancy lawyer.
I've heard there are lawyers who specialize in these types of cases.
In fact, they hand out manuals.
Step one. Be the first to file a complaint.
That way, you become the victim. Step two, hit back.
That way, it's a fight, not bullying. And other tips like that.
So, what's the point in having a committee? Right?
The point of having a hearing, I thought, was to discover the truth.
I know. But getting to the truth isn't that easy.
They learn about the case, meet the students briefly,
and have to reach a decision, all of this in just one day.
So they take a quick look at the evidence provided
and decide that both sides were at fault, or that nobody is.
The committee basically cannot discover the truth.
Ugh! So, what can we do?
What can we do?!
SEONG-GU'S IPHONE
SEONG-GU'S IPHONE, WEAK CONNECTION
SEONG-GU'S IPHONE, STRONG CONNECTION
So here you are.
Seong-gu, you can cry all that you want.
Don't keep it inside.
'Cause if you keep it inside,
then no one will know you're crying.
If you keep silent,
then no one will know you've been wronged.
And if you keep hiding your pain,
they will never know how much wrong they've done.
Is this how you want to live?
Well, then, I'll see you around.
It's not fair! It's so unfair. I don't deserve this!
I told the police about what happened. I told my parents. I told my teachers.
But no one believes me. No one!
And I know the guys were being nice to me just to use me,
but they were all I had!
They were the only friends I had. And they liked me!
Chi-ho said that he would come clean and tell everyone.
He said that he'd tell them about how he used my accounts.
But he kept putting it off, acting like it was nothing.
And now he's saying I'm guilty!
Now everyone will think that I am a liar. That I am a bully.
It's true!
Nobody believes me. My life is over!
Seong-gu, I still believe you.
I'm here for you, Seong-gu.
You can trust the ERPB.
Ready.
- Don't forget the key chains. - Yeah.
Mm. I have some here.
Let's see…
Do I have to use all of them?
Do what I tell you to do and you'll be fine.
I'm ready!
Watch out! They're coming!
Damn it. We don't have Wi-Fi anymore.
What do we do without our access point?
Don't worry. All we have to do is find another human Wi-Fi.
Ah, you're so cute!
- I found this pretty one next to you. - Well, well.
- I won't hurt you. Don't worry. - Hey, dork from the café
You soaked my shirt! Remember?
Hi there, guys.
What do you think you're doing?! You're supposed to be scared. Be a dork.
Good morning.
You owe me money, kid.
Yeah, no problem. For th… the dry cleaning?
It's okay. You can pay me back later. No worries.
- You're new here, right? - Uh-huh.
Well, since it's your first day, why not let me show you around?
- Are you sure? - Yeah.
- I'd really like that. - You should lose this though.
- Done. - But I really like flowers.
She really doesn't have a clue.
Not too bright and not too pretty.
I don't believe it!
You're in the same class with us?
Wow.
We can hang out together.
- Are you for real? - Of course. Why not?
Stop!
You're a dork. You can't walk in front of them! Let them go in first.
- Please, after you guys. - So nice of you.
Oh, I'm so sorry! You gotta watch where you step, girl.
- You're being a dickhead. - It must be a case of first day jitters.
Did you hurt yourself?
You look okay.
Inspector Rim, easy! You're on a mission. Stay focused. Relax.
Calm down, okay?
I'm fine, thanks.
Thank you for worrying about me.
No worries, it's fine.
Jeez, that scared the shit out of me.
If you want to thank me, can I use your Netflix account?
These are my accounts for Netflix, streaming services and gaming.
You can choose whichever level of League of Legends you prefer.
Whoa!
That's pretty fucking serious man!
Were you the human Wi-Fi at your school?
Is that what you call it here? Because we called it "hot spot" in my school.
Hot spot, nice.
And if the Wi-Fi signal is too weak here, just let me know, okay?
I can connect everyone with this router. Use this.
That's the password and ID.
And I have, um, some stuff if your battery's running low.
I have this superfast portable charger,
and all these cables for all types of phones. Let me show you.
See that? That's why the world needs people with experience.
They're prepared and know their stuff.
Wow!
Uh, if you give me your phones, I can charge them before class.
Yeah, good idea.
Thanks. Here.
Can you unlock it, please?
- Yeah. - I can connect them to the hot spot too.
Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you.
Wow! How did she get to this level of Legends?
- Hey, the mithril's mine! - Go ahead, take it.
Do you think she's that good?
I guess she must be better than you, Jong-su!
You just got beat, dude.
By a girl. Whatever.
ACCOUNT ACTIVE ON ANOTHER PC
The fuck? Who the hell is using my account?
- Check your login history. - What the fuck! Colombia?
There's some bastard in Colombia using my account!
You got your ass hacked.
What the fuck? This guy's trying to charge stuff to my account!
- He's fucked now! No way out. - Oh shit, I'm screwed!
"Hey dude, stop sending me these stupid links, you dumbass!"
"You don't have better things to do? Spam! Well, fuck this shit!"
Call him a douche.
Nobody uses "douche" anymore.
For real?
SPAMS ARE SO DAMN ANNOYING
What the fuck? Someone's using my number to send spam!
MOM
Hi, Mom. It wasn't me. What are you talking about?
- I'd never send you a link to a porn site! - Moving on to the next level.
Why don't you believe your own son?
I've logged into Chi-ho's account.
This game has a pretty strict profanity tolerance policy.
He'll be suspended depending on the level of profanity.
Han-rim, swear as badly as you can. Get him suspended for as long as possible.
- Write this down. - Give me a second.
You son of a bitch, you brainless scumbag. What kind of a fucker does that shit?
When God was giving out brains, he must've skipped you.
Dude, stop being a bitch. Just lie down and die. Just die, dumbass!
You think you're hot, but you don't know shit.
Who the fuck made you king dick? Dick, dick, dick!
You pull that shit on me again, you are dead!
I will eat your fucking liver. Got that?
- Ass! - Perfect. Don't stop. Go on!
You motherfuckers. Gonna blow your head off.
I will rip your eyeballs out and shit in your sockets.
I'm gonna break your fingers and use them as chopsticks!
I will deep-fry your balls and smash them against the fucking wall.
Squish, squish! Go ahead and make my day.
I will stick my arm down your throat and rip your fucking tonsils out!
- What the fuck? - What's up?
No way! What the hell's going on? Why the hell does it say 300 years?
2,500 WON CHARGED
EXTRA 50 MINS SURCHARGE: 10,000 WON
Shit.
OUTSIDE SERVICE AREA: 22,000 WON
What the fuck? No! Son of a bitch! You crazy bastard!
Whoa, what's up with you?
I'm gonna kill this asshole.
I got you!
Whoa!
You gotta be kidding me!
Oh, for fuck's sake, man.
I hate you!
- We found it! - It's really here!
He left it. Check the plates.
It should be 8-7-2-9.
- What the… - It's practically brand new!
Fucking A man!
Hey, you! What the fuck are you…
What the… What are you doing to my bike?
- It's supposed to be free. - A free bike? You outta your fucking mind?
What the fuck, man? You're the one who posted it.
Fuck! Who the hell posted this from my account?
That's not my problem, loser. Now off you go.
Don't touch me! Fuck you. Just give me my bike. Now fuck off!
Little son of a bitch!
No! Wait a minute! Listen to me, will you?
Somebody has hacked into my account. It wasn't me.
Well, then go and find him, bring him to us,
or else I'm gonna wipe that ridiculous smile off your face.
This is all your fault, you bitch!
You asked me to unlock my phone. You did all this!
Tell me the fucking truth!
- Will you let go of me first? - Come clean to me and maybe I'll be nice.
- Let go of me and maybe I'll be nice. - What?
Wh… what the fuck!
- Yeah, it was me who did it. - Are you out of your mind?
Do you have any idea how much shit you put me through?
How much shit are we talking about?
Enough so that you'd prefer to die rather than come back to school, huh?
I haven't even started yet.
You fucking…
- You're gonna pay for this, bitch! - No! Please stop!
Give me a second.
My… …throat's beginning to hurt.
Someone, help! Save me! Help me!
- Hey! What are you doing? - Don't hurt me! I'm so sorry!
Please! Someone help me!
What's going on?
It's nothing. Okay?
Ready for a committee meeting, Chi-ho?
I didn't do anything. She's the one who did it!
She's a complete nutjob!
Someone help me! I'm scared! Help me, I'm begging you.
SCHOOL VIOLENCE DELIBERATION COMMITTEE
Mr. Lee is not the bully here. He's actually the victim.
This new student is entirely responsible. This person hacked into his phone,
got his game account suspended, and committed fraud by posting items for sale.
Mr. Lee, do you have any evidence to support this claim?
I'm the victim here. Why do I have to prove it?
- Ask her, that new student. - Quiet. Shh.
Excuse me.
Our apologies for being late.
We had to see a doctor.
AFFECTED STUDENT
I'd also like to apologize on behalf of the victim's lawyer who has been delayed,
so I'll be replacing him.
You're not a lawyer. What gives you the right to represent anyone?
With power of attorney, I have the right. Mm.
- For the record. - Thank you.
Who's the fool of a lawyer who signed that? Give me his name.
It'll be my pleasure.
I'm sure you recognize him.
It's Minister Choi from the ERPB.
For those of you who don't know, Minister Choi is also a lawyer.
He's a full member of the Bar Association
and has served on various judicial committees.
Regardless, the fact that the Bureau participates at this hearing
is an abuse of its power.
We have an official document from the Minister.
This document confirms that all school violence committees
now fall under the remit of the ERPB, for your information.
Well, then, Inspector, I propose that we begin today's hearing immediately.
Mr. Chairman.
I believe it is quite obvious
how poorly Mr. Lee Chi-ho has treated the new student, Miss Im Han-Rim.
Her traumas are self-evident.
Poor girl. Look, she's drooling.
Right from the start, she was branded a dork and an outcast.
What should have been a positive experience soon became a nightmare.
It's okay, you can give it another try.
She now struggles with significant mental health issues and emotional damage.
You gotta be kidding me!
Come on, she's putting on a show!
She's the one behind all this. Can't you see that I'm the victim?
I'm the victim!
Chi-ho, darling, please sit down.
- It's all for show. It's just an act! - Chi-ho, what are you doing? Sit down!
- No! Mr. Lee, don't! - Oh my God, Chi-ho! Come back here.
I know you're okay. There's nothing wrong with you.
Get your hands off her!
Tell them it's a lie. Tell them you're putting on a show.
It's like he said, it's an act. It's all a lie!
Let him go!
Stop it! You're hurting him! Stop it!
Now you know how it feels.
Have you reflected on what you've done? On the pain you've inflicted?
Or do you want me to break your wrist so you understand?
Oh my God!
That's enough, Inspector Im.
Chi-ho, are you all right?
The student you see standing before you
is an undercover inspector working for the ERPB,
investigating the bullying of Jang Seong-gu by Mr. Lee
and other students from Jinwon High.
That explains it.
You're wondering why we had to go to such lengths.
It was necessary in order for us to clear the name of Seong-gu.
Hey, Seong-gu?
You watching this?
That's why we're here.
Inspector Han-rim went undercover to clear the name of an innocent student.
So, Chi-ho, how does it feel?
Maybe you've started to remember what you did?
How you bullied Seong-gu?
You've no right to do this. It isn't fair!
I never even laid a hand on Seong-gu.
That's true. You didn't actually hit him.
He doesn't have a single bruise. That doesn't mean there wasn't violence.
Despite the fact that you never physically beat him,
your behavior left him terrified, abused, and traumatized.
No matter what he tried, no one believed him. Not a single word he said.
Not even his own parents. Mm.
He ended up believing that he'd be better off getting beaten.
Because if you could see the bruises,
maybe his parents would believe him.
You wanna know what the worst part is?
To try to get out of the dark hole he was in,
he had no choice but to beg the punk who put him there in the first place.
He had to get down on his knees…
and beg for mercy from his own bully.
That's how you humiliated him
without even touching him.
It must have been so hard.
It must have been so hard for you all alone.
Forgive me, please. I'm so sorry.
It was my fault. I should have believed you and listened to you.
I should never have doubted you.
Our investigation has proven that Jang Seong-gu was bullied,
and that Chi-ho has repeatedly lied to this committee.
Not only has he lied,
but he also extorted and preyed upon Seong-gu
while claiming to be his good friend.
As a result of our findings,
the ERPB has decided to initiate immediate protective measures for Seong-gu.
The Bureau insists that the school violence committee publish
an official written letter, an apology to the victim's mother.
A victim is a victim. A bully is a bully.
And a liar is a liar.
Is that so hard to understand?
We adults are here to protect children.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Wow. Can't believe it worked.
Thank you for all you've done for me.
We'll make sure you get a new ID and get your accounts back.
Thank you so much, Inspector. And thank you both for your help.
- We wish you best of luck, ma'am. - Thank you.
I'll do the very best I can.
Time for you to go back home now.
Goodbye.
- This is your friend? - Yeah.
I wanted to apologize. You told me not to get involved.
But in the end, I'm really happy to see that everything turned out well for him.
It's good news.
Welcome. Good evening.
No, that's not for you.
That one's for Ga-yun.
Lie down here.
Careful.
Hey.
Get yourself another girlfriend.
I'm not sure that Ga-yun would agree.
Imagine if she found out that
her own father had been ranting on about that for hours, huh?
You're so busted!
Fine. No more smoking, then.
Come on.
A toast!
Why would I want to share a drink with this guy?
I don't see the point if he doesn't like me.
Are you both gonna act like children?
Absolutely.
He leaves me no choice.
Well, I guess then,
we won't get married.
- What's gotten into you all of a sudden? - It's a good idea.
Good, we all agree. I'm never getting married.
Never ever?
Mm-hmm.
Well, if I can't marry Hwa-jin, then I'll just live alone, grow old and die.
And you, my dear father, will never, ever hold your grandchildren,
and never hear their voices call for their grandfather.
If you don't want that to happen, I suggest you reconsider your behavior.
Well, maybe… I can reconsider.
Good. In that case, I'd say it's time we raised our glasses together.
Shall we toast?
How about an arm-and-arm toast?
You might be pushing your luck.
Well, then, no grandchildren. Recording. Ready?
- That's not fair-- - Wait.
- One… - Give me a minute, okay.
- Two… - Okay.
Three. Yeah!
The light is dim
But I'm not afraid
I've lived enough
I know it's my fate
A quiet voice
Is calling me
From afar
To where the endless sky Meets the sea…
To where the echoes fade away
I've given all I had to give
Now I'll find the space…
Where my peace belongs
I'll fade into
Forever
With no regret
What the fuck, man?
Hey!
Fuck!
I'd win, that's what you told me. You said I'd win if I hired a lawyer.
- You should be first to file a report. - Why would I bother? What for?
You cannot afford to be complacent right now.
The ERPB will do everything that it can to brand you as the school bully.
They'll try to have you suspended.
Or even have you expelled from the school.
You need to make the first move.
Because in today's world, the victim is the one who files first.
If you don't want to be branded a bully, then play the victim.
Call him. He'll help you.
ATTORNEY YOON TAE-GYEONG
What do we do now?
Everything has gone exactly as planned.
Jeez, come on!
What the fuck are you talking about, huh?
Listen, dude,
my life's over because of the ERPB.
And my family's screwed because of me.
And the only fucking way out of this is if I'm dead!
What the fuck do you mean, it's gone as planned, huh?
I'm the one who reported you for bullying Seong-gu.
That's why the Bureau came after you.
Wanna know what happens next?
This.
MIRAE DAEHAN PARTY
Excuse me, sir.
Did you see the news?
The ERPB is in serious trouble.
There was an incident during their latest investigation.
- Sir, you have a visitor. - Show them in.
Oh!
What brings you here so early this morning? Huh?
Hm. Please, have a seat.
Thanks.
Miss, can you bring us some tea please.
Yes, sir.
So, Cho Gyu-cheol,
shouldn't you be on your way to school at this time?
Well, I have something I need to give you. After that, I'll be on my way.
It wouldn't look good for me to miss school.
My life's over because of the ERPB.
And my family's screwed because of me.
And the only fucking way out of this is if I'm dead!
And what is this recording?
It's what you wanted.
Um, there's no need to worry. There were no cameras.
It's not that I don't trust you, sir.
It's up to you to decide what you want to do with it.
STUDENT FALLS FROM JINWON HIGH ROOFTOP SUICIDE SUSPECTED
Hang on.
What the hell do you think you're doing?
Do you think I got you out of jail for this?
Ah.
You don't get it.
But you didn't get me out of jail.
You see, I planned all of this.
What?
You're not the one who dragged me into this.
I'm the one who dragged you into it.
It was me who sent Officer Kang to see you.
PAROLE REVIEW MATERIALS
DEEMED SUITABLE FOR SOCIAL REINTEGRATION THROUGH PAROLE
It's true, sir, that by pulling strings with the parole board,
it really helped me get released, and for that I'm very thankful.
You piece of shit!
You should mind your language.
If you want to become president, you'll need better manners.
At the end of the day, you and I want the same thing.
We both want to see the end of the ERPB.
Minister, have you any updates concerning Lee Chi-ho's progress?
Have you had the opportunity to see him?
Congressman, are you here to see Mr. Lee?
Any comments concerning recent events at Jinwon High?
Congressman, what brings you here, may I ask?
The country is in uproar after this incident. How could I not come?
Right now, his health is the priority. You should leave.
You're not really in a position to tell me what I should be doing, Minister.
My life's over because of the ERPB.
And my family's screwed because of me.
And the only fucking way out of this is if I'm dead!
Do you really think, Minister,
that the ERPB has no responsibility for what happened?
A shocking audio recording from a Jinwon High School student
who is believed to have attempted suicide is spreading online.
The five-second recording, which is gaining considerable traction
and attention on social media,
appears to capture the student's own voice expressing resentment towards the ERPB.
Police are focusing their investigation on the authenticity of the recording
and are seeking to determine who made it and how it was distributed.
The political world has reacted swiftly and is calling for an emergency review
to determine whether there were any illegal acts or coercion
during the ERPB's investigation process.
