1. 1

   A 새벽 한 시에 식탁에서 뭐 해? 이게 다 뭐야? '명예훼손으로 고소할 예정'... 여보, 이거 내용증명이잖아.

   Saebyeok han sie siktageseo mwo hae? Ige da mwoya? 'Myeongyehwesoneuro gosohal yejeong'... yeobo, igeo naeyongjeungmyeongijana.

   What are you doing at the table at one in the morning? What is all this? 'We intend to sue for defamation'... Honey, this is a formal legal notice.

   Line 1
2. 2

   B 아, 깼어? 별거 아니야. 요즘 취재하는 전세 사기 건 때문에 온 거야. 회사 법무팀이 알아서 하고 있어.

   A, kkaesseo? Byeolgeo aniya. Yojeum chwijaehaneun jeonse sagi geon ttaemune on geoya. Hoesa beommutimi araseo hago isseo.

   Oh, you're up? It's nothing. It came because of the jeonse fraud story I'm working on. The company's legal team is handling it.

   Line 2
3. 3

   A 별거 아니라면서 날짜는 왜 삼 주 전이야? 한 통, 두 통, 세 통... 어쩜 삼 주 동안 말 한마디 없이 그러니.

   Byeolgeo aniramyeonseo naljjaneun wae sam ju jeoniya? Han tong, du tong, se tong... eojjeom sam ju dongan mal hanmadi eopsi geureoni.

   If it's nothing, why is it dated three weeks ago? One, two, three of them... How could you go three weeks without saying a single word?

   Line 3
4. 4

   B 말하면 자기가 잠 못 잘 게 뻔하잖아. 요즘 내가 늦게 들어온 데는 다 이유가 있거들랑.

   Malhamyeon jagiga jam mot jal ge ppeonhajana. Yojeum naega neutge deureoon deneun da iyuga itgeodeullang.

   If I'd told you, you obviously wouldn't have slept. There's a reason I've been coming home late, you see.

   Line 4
5. 5

   A 지금 농담이 나와? 이유가 있으면 말을 해야지. 누가 보낸 건데?

   Jigeum nongdami nawa? Iyuga isseumyeon mareul haeyaji. Nuga bonaen geonde?

   You're joking at a time like this? If there's a reason, you tell me. Who sent these?

   Line 5
6. 6

   B 빌라 이백 채를 세입자 보증금으로 사들인 일당이 있어. 피해자가 백팔십 명인데, 대부분 사회 초년생이랑 신혼부부라 속수무책으로 당했어. 그쪽 변호사가 보낸 거고.

   Billa ibaek chaereul seipja bojeunggeumeuro sadeurin ildangi isseo. Pihaejaga baekpalsip myeonginde, daebubun sahoe chonyeonsaengirang sinhonbubura soksumuchaegeuro danghaesseo. Geujjok byeonhosaga bonaen geogo.

   There's a ring that bought up two hundred low-rise flats with their tenants' deposits. There are a hundred and eighty victims, mostly young people in their first jobs and newlyweds, and they were powerless against it. Their lawyer sent these.

   Line 6
7. 7

   A 그런 사람들이 편지만 보내고 끝낼 것 같아? 우리 집 주소도 알 텐데. 애들 학교는?

   Geureon saramdeuri pyeonjiman bonaego kkeunnael geot gata? Uri jip jusodo al tende. Aedeul hakgyoneun?

   Do you think people like that will stop at letters? They must know our address too. What about the kids' school?

   Line 7
8. 8

   B 그래서 방송 전까지만 조용히 하려고 했던 거야. 방송이 나가면 오히려 함부로 못 건드려. 다들 지켜보고 있으니까.

   Geuraeseo bangsong jeonkkajiman joyonghi haryeogo haetdeon geoya. Bangsongi nagamyeon ohiryeo hamburo mot geondeuryeo. Dadeul jikyeobogo isseunikka.

   That's why I wanted to keep quiet just until it airs. Once it's on air, they can't touch us so easily. Everyone will be watching.

   Line 8
9. 9

   A 이렇게 위험한 걸 꼭 자기가 해야 돼? 회사에 피디가 자기 하나뿐이니?

   Ireoke wiheomhan geol kkok jagiga haeya dwae? Hoesae pidiga jagi hanappunini?

   Does something this dangerous have to be you? Are you the only producer at the company?

   Line 9
10. 10

    B 피해자 중에 우리 조카 또래가 스무 명이 넘어. 첫 월급 모아서 들어간 집인데 보증금을 한 푼도 못 돌려받았대. 남한테 넘기려도 그 얼굴들이 자꾸 떠올라서 안 되걸랑.

    Pihaeja junge uri joka ttoraega seumu myeongi neomeo. Cheot wolgeup moaseo deureogan jibinde bojeunggeumeul han pundo mot dollyeobadatdae. Namhante neomgiryeodo geu eolguldeuri jakku tteoollaseo an doegeollang.

    More than twenty of the victims are our nephew's age. They moved in with money saved from their first pay cheques, and they haven't got a won of their deposits back. Every time I think of handing it over, I see their faces, and I just can't.

    Line 10
11. 11

    A 그 얘기를 들으니까 뭐라고 할 수가 없잖아. 그래서 더 화가 나. 알았으면 같이 걱정이라도 했을 거 아니야.

    Geu yaegireul deureunikka mworago hal suga eopjana. Geuraeseo deo hwaga na. Arasseumyeon gachi geokjeongirado haesseul geo aniya.

    Hearing that, I can't say anything, can I? That makes me even angrier. If I'd known, I could at least have worried with you.

    Line 11
12. 12

    B 미안해. 혼자 짊어지는 게 멋있는 줄 알았나 봐. 근데 아직 제일 중요한 고리를 못 찾았어.

    Mianhae. Honja jilmeojineun ge meosinneun jul aranna bwa. Geunde ajik jeil jungyohan gorireul mot chajasseo.

    I'm sorry. I guess I thought carrying it alone was the cool thing to do. But I still haven't found the most important link.

    Line 12
13. 13

    A 무슨 고리? 줘 봐. 나 은행에서 대출 심사만 십 년 한 사람이야. 서류는 자기보다 내가 잘 봐.

    Museun gori? Jwo bwa. Na eunhaengeseo daechul simsaman sip nyeon han saramiya. Seoryuneun jagiboda naega jal bwa.

    What link? Give it here. I spent ten years reviewing loans at a bank. I read documents better than you do.

    Line 13
14. 14

    B 이 일당은 자기 돈이 한 푼도 없었어. 근데 어떻게 은행 대출이랑 전세금만으로 이백 채를 샀는지, 그게 안 풀려.

    I ildangeun jagi doni han pundo eopseosseo. Geunde eotteoke eunhaeng daechurirang jeonsegeummaneuro ibaek chaereul sanneunji, geuge an pullyeo.

    This ring didn't have a penny of its own. So how did they buy two hundred flats with nothing but bank loans and jeonse deposits? That's what I can't crack.

    Line 14
15. 15

    A 잠깐, 이거 봐. 감정가가 전부 실제 거래가보다 이삼천만 원씩 높아. 집값보다 비싼 전세금을 받을 수 있었던 건 감정가를 부풀려서야.

    Jamkkan, igeo bwa. Gamjeonggaga jeonbu silje georaegaboda isamcheonman wonssik nopa. Jipgapboda bissan jeonsegeumeul badeul su isseotdeon geon gamjeonggareul bupullyeoseoya.

    Wait, look at this. Every appraisal is twenty or thirty million won above the actual sale price. They could charge deposits higher than the flats were worth because the appraisals were inflated.

    Line 15
16. 16

    B 감정가? 그럼 감정평가사가 한통속이라는 거야?

    Gamjeongga? Geureom gamjeongpyeonggasaga hantongsogiraneun geoya?

    The appraisals? So you're saying the appraiser was in on it?

    Line 16
17. 17

    A 이백 채 감정서에 찍힌 도장을 세어 봐. 같은 사람 몇 명이 계속 찍었으면 그게 자기가 찾던 고리야.

    Ibaek chae gamjeongseoe jjikin dojangeul seeo bwa. Gateun saram myeot myeongi gyesok jjigeosseumyeon geuge jagiga chatdeon goriya.

    Count the stamps on the two hundred appraisal reports. If the same few people stamped them over and over, that's the link you've been looking for.

    Line 17
18. 18

    B ...세 명이 거의 다 찍었네. 이 사람들까지 한패면 판이 완전히 커지겠는데. 고소장도 더 날아오겠고.

    ...Se myeongi geoui da jjigeonne. I saramdeulkkaji hanpaemyeon pani wanjeonhi keojigenneunde. Gosojangdo deo naraogetgo.

    ...Three people stamped nearly all of them. If they're in on it too, this is going to get a whole lot bigger. And there'll be more lawsuits flying at us.

    Line 18
19. 19

    A 날아오라 그래. 근데 앞으로 협박 편지든 전화든 오면 그날 바로 말해. 또 숨기면 그땐 내가 자기를 고소할 거야.

    Naraora geurae. Geunde apeuro hyeopbak pyeonjideun jeonhwadeun omyeon geunal baro malhae. Tto sumgimyeon geuttaen naega jagireul gosohal geoya.

    Let them come. But from now on, a threatening letter, a call, whatever, you tell me that same day. If you hide anything again, I'm the one who'll be suing you.

    Line 19
20. 20

    B 알았어, 그날 바로. 근데 여보, 방금 그거 방송에 넣어도 돼? '전직 은행원 제보자'로.

    Arasseo, geunal baro. Geunde yeobo, banggeum geugeo bangsonge neoeodo dwae? 'Jeonjik eunhaengwon jeboja'ro.

    Okay, that same day. But honey, can I put what you just found in the programme? As 'a tip from a former bank employee'?

    Line 20
21. 21

    A 모자이크에 음성 변조까지 해 주면 생각해 볼게. 일단 커피부터 내려. 오늘 밤은 둘 다 자긴 글렀으니까.

    Mojaikeue eumseong byeonjokkaji hae jumyeon saenggakae bolge. Ildan keopibuteo naeryeo. Oneul bameun dul da jagin geulleosseunikka.

    I'll think about it if you blur my face and disguise my voice. First, make some coffee. Neither of us is getting any sleep tonight.

    Line 21
