Hurry and close it!
Don't just stand there! Stop them!
Has someone called the police?
At 10am this morning,
5 billion won was stolen
from the Suwon branch of the Bank of Korea
After chasing down the fleeing suspects,
one suspect has been caught,
but the rest have escaped
Oh, shit
Park Shin-yang
Baek Yoon-shik Yum Jung-ah
Chun Ho-jin Lee Moon-shik
ln the burning vehicle behind me,
a dead body was found
The suspect Choi Chang-hyuk,
was imprisoned for fraud a year and a half ago
Just one month after his release,
he has committed another crime
Meanwhile the police believe
that five suspects were involved
in the Bank of Korea theft
The police are now on a manhunt
to find the remaining three criminals
Did you call Choi Chang-hyuk's family?
He has one older brother
l called immigration,
and they said he's in Russia
directed by Choi Dong-hoon
'THE BlG SWlNDLE'
'After one months'
Hello?
Choi Chang-ho are you home?
So someone's here
Can l help you?
Choi Chang-ho, right? /Yes
We're the police
Last month Choi Chang-hyuk
No one must've told you
What's the problem?
You tell him
Damn it
Choi Chang-hyuk is dead
Please check
When did you last see him?
About two months ago
That's right after his release
How could you work in that bookstore
selling reference books to kids?
Ever seen a lion eat grass when he's starving to death?
l'm in the middle
of making up a beautiful plan
lf this works out remember that land we wanted?
Let's buy it all up
l'm getting sick of your antics now
Alright, Alright
Don't act like a small dick, okay?
l've lost my appetite Call you later
Chang-hyuk
Do you have money?
No, so that's why l'm going to make some
What the fuck are you looking at?
Hey lady here's the tip
Tips are for Europeans not us
See ya. l'll call you.
And you only talked on the phone later?
Yes
Did he mention anything about the Bank of Korea?
No
Your brother took out some life insurance
He got the insurance for mom
But what's the use
if she passed away four years ago
Now it's four years and exactly three months
The beneficiary is under your name
The amount is over 50 million won
50 million won is nothing big these days
Go to Russia often?
There's a lot of good books in Russiayou know
Also, l'm writing a book now
that's set in Russia
Writing? What kind?
Do you have a book out?
'A Woman Called She'
Shit
You see this?
'A Woman Called She'
l'm a big fan of this book
This guy likes his younger brother's girl friend
and a conflict develops between the two brothers
Things like this could happen in life
You wrote a fantastic plot
This is crazy
Wait
what was her name? Oh yeah, Jung ln-sook
The older brother says to Jung ln-sook,
'Since l love you l can't help but possess you'
'Even though possessing isn't love'
Truly incredible
Like Audrey Hepburn said /Captain
Go away, l'm busy.
lt's a beautiful quote /Captain, hold on a second
The Chief lnspector
wanted you to hear this /l don't need it
lt was a great quote
l used to write poems, and loved literature myself
Wait, so how far did we get?
But that book didn't do so well
lf l like it it doesn't matter
We're all done
lt was an honor to meet you
But before you go,
could you sign he front cover?
You look much better in person
lt's such an honor
Miss Seo ln-kyung come here!
l'll fix you some great coffee,
so wait just a moment
Hey, ln-kyung
Do you mind stop looking at him like that?
You know Choi Chang-hyuk, right?
That's his older brother
l'll pass on the coffee
Okay, l'm sorry to trouble you
Let's have a drink next time
Good-bye
Seo ln-kyung
Two convictions of fraud nickname 'Sharon Stone'?
You like showing off what's between your legs?
What's with you?
Treat me with some respect
l'm also a tax-paying citizen
Citizen, my ass.
One conviction for fraud
means you've committed 20 more
So what?
You called me here
to talk about my history?
You witch where's Master Kim?
That guy's a novelist?
Let go
You're his wife so you should know!
But we're not registered
You better listen to me well!
lf you screw around you'll be swimming in shit!
lf you even spit on the street,
l'll put you behind bars!
Excuse me
Do you mind if we talk?
What did Chang-hyuk say about me?
He said he was going out with a very pretty girl
We weren't much
You must be sad that your brother died
You know how they say people are born to die
This is what l think
l don't like happy things
And sad things even more so
l just wanna live
with nothing to bother me
Oh yeah, Chang-hyuk's bag's at my house
Would you like to order?
l'm leaving soon
Do you want to get his bag?
Are you okay?
Yes.
Would you like some coffee?
So Chang-hyuk
came here right after he was released?
Before that, this guy called Gasoline met my...
The cops mentioned Master Kim, right?
Anyway, Gasoline was talking
about Chang-hyuk to Master Kim
That's why l mentioned your name
He said he's got a 5-billion won job in mind
When was he released?
lt's been 5 days
Choi Chang-hyuk, huh?
How is he?
He's pretty genuine
His nickname is 'Tongue'
He lies well he's good-looking,
and he likes to gamble
Guys who like to gamble
usually have a good heart
Guys like me.
Tell him to come by.
Gasoline and Master Kim
finished discussing it
Then Chang-hyuk came
right after his release
ls Master Kim in?
Who are you?
You must be his daughter
There's no Master Kim here
Wait a minute.
Wait!
By any chance Choi Chang-hyuk?
Yes, l'm a bit popular
He's not in right now
He'll be in by this year
He asks for a busy guy like me,
and he's no show?
What a nice place
Master Kim did pretty well
l've got gas in my stomach
from this apple
Got anything to drink?
Something expensive?
Pick one from here
You know how to drink wine, right?
Wine!
l like wine of course
There's no Chilean
You like Chilean wine?
lt's not that l dislike French wine,
but you know how those Germans
totally wiped out France in the war
So many people died
And so did all those wine fields
All the originals burned down
Then they planted the seeds again,
but they don't grow in a day
But Chile still has its original
People who don't know much
keep looking for French wine
You got ripped off big time
l didn't buy it
And what kind of crazy fool
keeps his wine like this?
l think it's pretty like this
Look at all these bright lights
lt's too warm
They'll all rot
They will?
What the hell is this crap?
The wine's temperature is crucial
lt's the same as people
lt's cold here, right?
lt's cold here.
lt's a bit warm here, right?
lt's warmer here, right?
And here no need to explain
So what was your name?
You're a complete con!
Why isn't Master Kim here yet?
After the Gulf War,
the UN put sanctions on lraq's economy
Any international trade or transaction with the dinar
was absolutely forbidden
But,
rumors were spreading in Korea's black market
that when the sanctions are lifted,
each one of these
will be worth 1 million won
Pass it around
Tempting, isn't it?
The dealers bought
each bill for about 3,600 won
Then they sold it for 22,000 won
l bet you
that our Korean banks
have piles of them stocked up
But then what happened?
The sanctions weren't lifted
The Americans
went and changed the currency
People who bought the dinar
were going broke
This is a swindle
The smarter you are the easier you get cheated
Where else will you learn this?
You need to fix your workout.
Look ahead 35 degrees higher,
and breath in and out
Breath in and out, good.
Abebe ran like this,
and won all the marathon trophies
This is the best way to prevent pleurisy
Breath in and out
Oh, Master Kim!
Who the hell are you?
l don't know what to say
to such a famous person
Mister Choi
Didn't Gasoline tell you that l'm living a clean life?
Well, everyone one of us is trying to live clean
You said it's five big ones?
How many actors do you need?
Five main stars
The technical stuff will be handled by Gasoline
lQ doesn't matter l need guys with a high EQ
Have a drink while you're here and just go
Think it's easy taking five big ones from somebody?
You didn't ask from who? lt's the Bank of Korea
Here's the gist of my plan
This stuff is top secret
You know what's in the bank's safe, right?
Cash, stocks, bonds,
negotiable certificates of deposit,
bills, and even gold bars,
lt looks impossible to me
You must be catching a cold
Ask someone else
lf l wanted to ask someone else,
why would l be here?
Think l came here to check the meter?
ls it that job four years ago?
What?
Rumors have it that job four years ago
froze up your balls
Rumors?
Big companies will take that money
and use it for themselves anyway
You're gonna just let that happen?
My balls froze up?
What asshole said that?
l'm staying in the motel at the intersection
lf you'll do it come over
lf you don't come over anyway
Breath in and out
Let's have a barbeque tonight
There will be five guests
Tomorrow is Chang-hyuk's cremation
l'm busy tomorrow
But out of respect, we
l'm sick of the cops
You'll pick me up, right?
Of course
Bye
Detective Kim
Captain
he came to his senses this morning
Okay
Oh, hello, Captain
You're probably going through
so much during these hard times
That's okay that's our job.
Being that boy's father,
Mister Lee how do you feel?
How do you think l feel?
My son grew to a swindler What the hell is it?
l'd like to serve rice wine /l'm on duty now
lf you're hungry l'll buy you some dog meat
l'm on the job
Then l'll take that as a yes
Okay, okay
Big Mouth where are the rest?
Don't you have a phone? Call them
Watch your mouth /lt's hot!
What's gotten into you? /You bastard,
think we're here to pay a visit?
l ought pulverize you
l'm a handicap
The joints in the shinbone fractured
And so did the joints in the femur
l'm a handicap,
so can't l talk back a little?
How many beatings do you need to wake up?
Did l do this to you
you asshole? /l'm sorry
l should kill you for being bad to your poor father
l'm sorry
That's enough. Calm down.
Hey, he's a professional
So we should treat him as a professional
Treat him as a professional
He's no professional
He's a sex and drug offender,
swindler and a rotten son
Hey, you're right
Lee Kyung-bok
Before the Bank of Korea job,
you swindled 5 million won, right?
l was making money to get by, okay?
Fine, you're making money to get by,
but you shouldn't commit injustice to society
Right, l shouldn't.
You little bastard
Tell me from the beginning
Don't make up any lies and say it right, got it?
From the beginning!
l went to a lady who just withdrew 5 million won
Miss
Miss!
You just withdrew 5 million won, right?
We made a mistake and left out 200,000 won
Please go to window three /Okay
This fell out again
What's wrong with this thing?
Traveling certificates should be more accessible
People aren't thinking about their own welfare
Then they should make health gift certificates
l'm sorry
Damn it
Officer!
Wait, Officer
l did it because l'm broke
You have the right to make excuses
But it still won't matter
Officer l'll give you 2 million,
so buy a nice suit
2 million won won't get me anything decent!
Yes, it will!
Stop bullshit!
Officer Choi take him to the station
Master Kim!
Who the hell are you?
Hurry and get in!
You scared my ass to death
You fell for it l'm Choi Chang-hyuk
Call me Big Mouth /Big Mouth
Master Kim how long has it been?
About four years?
Time to work
But you've taken you hands off
l had the doctor put it back on
l guess an apple can only fall from an apple tree
How much?
5 big ones
5 billion won?
Been busy lately?
Heard you've made some money
Not at all
lt's just scrap car certificates
For each stamp l seal l get 25 million won
lt's just a part-time gig
Let me use this place for a month
One months, two months however long you'd like
Come to my place at six Don't be late
Giddyup! /Let's switch
Chang-hyuk
Good-bye, Master Kim!

Hey, give me a cigarette.
Hey, she was pretty
Pretty my ass
For a bar girl she's not tasty at all
You're coughing like a mad man
You sure he quit drugs?

Medically speaking coughing means that l quit,
idiot
Screw that mouth of yours
Anyway who's this guy?
He's working with us
Say hello

Wait, l don't work with strangers
Then don't do it and stop playing games

See you later
Stop this. Stop this.
Please stop this Please stop
l really liked that act you pulled
You had me
So when did you start spinning the dish?
Ever since l've grown up
You must've worked solo
Since l'm still an intern,
l need some professional help
You're also modest
Your name is
Knowing that l exist is enough
Who cares about names
Hey, buddy
Hear about my operation on that bar girl?
This story seems to have some merit
You bet it does
l turned on the radar
And then l've found it
What kind of chick is she?
She's got money but she's so lonely
Up to here is easy The next step is crucial
You're a Seoul University grad,

Yes, sir
So what do you think about Mister Choi's idea?
l put the stethoscope to it and got a diagnosis
lt's in perfect shape

Master Kim, wait

For the poor elderly he...
Let's go
What's wrong?
When Master Kim is with us
No! No!
Wake up!
Ring the bell!
Captain
What happened to him?
Big Mouth, that bastard
He's having spasms and can't breathe well
The doctor said he did so many drugs
the medication isn't working
So?
He said to come back tomorrow morning
What a pain in the damn neck
But he can still talk can't he?
Since he's out of it,
he's only babbling
So what?
We can't talk to him today
l'm telling you they'll leave the country
Catch them, or else don't come to work
We didn't even touch him
Fucking, drug addict
What are you doing?
Check and see if anyone's coming
lt's illegal to contaminate the water
lllegal?
Oh, no somebody's coming
Mom...
Save me!
You have a Hana Bank account, right?
l don't
Then l guess we'll have to make one
The money will be deposited in 10 days
The total is 528 million won without taxes
Please, sign here
Do you have any insurance for yourself?
No, l don't
Take a look at this
People don't want insurance
because of the dropping interest
l found the books in St Petersburg
They cost over 40,000 rubl,
but one book was missing
So l haven't decided yet
You know lvan, right?
He bought the books in Almata
Yes
l wore you out today didn't l?
To be frank l liked Chang-hyuk
When he came over for the barbeque,
Chang-hyuk was smoking on the roof
He looked so handsome
ls he that handsome?
l can't forget him
His smile, his walk the way he smokes
lt was the afternoon and l felt a bit weary
You see, l get weary in the afternoon
Like a pussy cat
Come inside This is my bookstore
The phone
Right
Yes, may l help you?
Chang-ho you seem busy
so l'll leave you alone
Why don't you have some coffee first?
l'll come,by later.
ls it okay if l call you Chang-ho?
Yes, of course
'Jung ln-sook looked at him with the blank eyes of a deer'
'l'm sorry'
'As her water drop skirt moves farther away
he felt as if
he'd never forget her'
This guy's a subtle romantic
So he loves his younger brother's lover
This is boring
081
Sounds like some date or phone number
There's 10 of them right?
Captain did you listen to it?
To what?
Oh
l thought it was some music tape
You know how many years
l tried to catch Master Kim
He even walked away four years ago
What happened four years ago?
He set up an investment fraud
for a fake entertainment company
The victims were two teachers
The math teacher killed himself
He put up his students' tuition
The language teacher disappeared
So what's on this?
Two days before Master Kim went into the Bank of Korea,
we got an anonymous phone call
lt was some woman
She said that Master Kim is plotting something in two days
l didn't know whether to trust her
So l asked one of my juniors a favor
You bugged him That's illegal
l'll leave things to you now
When you got married,
l gave you 1 million won
That was a lot back then
Yeah,
but you gave it to the bride, idiot
Come to think of it,
Assoline didn't give me any money
l was in the can then
But you still should've paid
Damn it!
