At a certain point, it unfortunately just got very confusing. Who is giving what orders and why? Why are people…
The fat guy listens to cartel, kwang-chul listens to the fat guy. Kwang-chul learns the fat guy wants to remove him, so he betrays the fat guy first and gets money for himself. Meanwhile, police raids several cartel holdouts which leads to severe shortage of money and drugs on the market and mutual paranoia, as rats scramble to leave the sinking ship so to speak. In this climate, kwang-chul(who was sold by one of his sidekicks and captured) convinces the cartel he's more useful to them then the fat guy and his sidekick. The sidekick and fatass try to get money for themselves in the chase scene, but they fail, and kwang-chul sucessfuly transports all of it to hidden location away from Dong-ha's house, where he and his trusted people are the only ones who know of it. Thus he's the owner of the money here. The fatass is killed by cartel.
At this point, Kwang-chul could have given money to cartel and start working for them. However, their condition to kill Dong-ha, alongside his own suspicions, makes him betray them as well. There are two corrupt detectives working for the cartel. The woman is killed at the police station, and the guy who does caretl's dirty work is attacked by kwang chul at the abandoned warehouse and killed there.
In the end, cartel lost a lot of manpower, kwang-chul got the money.
Why does the female detective's voice sound so weird? like she's doing ASMR in a recording studio
it's typical noir stuff. watch any scandinavian noir movie/drama or that french series "black spot" and you'll see the same trope, female detectives talking in a hushed voice like they're doing asmr
Is there a reason why, at the start, the guy didn't just pinch a few wads of cash and scarper instead of incriminating…
because he's a moron. his wife wants to divorce him literally because he's so stupid, the episode begins with him getting scammed out of his money which is why he ends up desperately needing money in the first place. then everything he does afterwards proves how intellectually deficient he is and most likely is supposed to be.
Also, it reminds me of penthouse.....
