The kids call him 'Ggok-Ji-Ddan' and Haejin tracks down this character for a story, only to find it's her childhood friend. She also runs into Semin at a party he's crashed to rob. Young-suk's family are assaulted by hoodlums and Soo-yeon is kidnapped. Young-suk rescues her with the help of Semin, and takes their drug stash in revenge. Semin tells him to give the drugs to the cops but the criminals kidnap Haejin and set fire to Young-suk's house. Will he be able to save her? Will Semin continue his life of crime?
