I love seeing Yeo-jin taking charge of the investigation and leading the news conference. I’m still worried about her working for Chief Choi but I have faith she’ll pull through without giving in.

The conversation between Shi-mok, Yeo-jin, and the other police officers about the photo is so interesting. Yeo-jin pointed out the fact that prosecution wouldn’t hand over weasel’s work history, underlining the bigger problem of investigative authority, and Shi-mok agreed without arguing or raising a fuss. If it were another prosecutor, they would no doubt deny it or becoming so fluster/angry, especially when surrounded by police officers. Yeo-jin is also being fair when pointing out the police’s biases in the same breath.

It’s hilarious that every other police officer at Yongsan groaned when they saw Shi-mok walked in. And then to see Shi-mok, Yeo-jin, and the police chief all discussing the case like they weren’t meant to be on “opposing” sides. Which I guess is the whole point – that police and prosecution need to work together and CAN work together to actually achieve something good.

Shi-mok’s question about what the symptoms of someone who is worried are is probs meant to push Prosecutor Kim to pay attention to Prosecutor Won. Dude is getting suspicious. But like Won isn’t that subtle either. I hope Kim would turn out to be an ally to Shi-mok in some ways.

Sigh. It really looks like Dong-jae’s wife might be cheating on her husband, or has other shady dealings under the table. Her comment to her younger son about “that’s not your dad” … lolol poor weasel. I hope we find him alive.
