Namjoo Seoul Metropolitan Gangbuk-gu Secret Service Building

Kim Dong-jin was seen reporting to a video call in the first room of the Secret Service Security Service, where an emergency meeting was convened after receiving a phone call from Bangkok.

Fifty minutes ago, Professor Woo Jin-gil, who entered the room for a phone call with his daughter, reported after broke the locked door, and was lying on the bed because he did not come out for more than 20 minutes and could not hear any signs of any noise.

The two guards were rushed to a nearby general hospital, but he had already died before arriving at the hospital, the doctor said.

Currently, Professor Woo Jin-gil’s body is under discussion with the Bureau of Investigation in Thailand about the procedure for transportation to his country and was scheduled to be escorted home as soon as the consultation was completed. In addition, the original letter, the suicide note which would be an important clue to the suicide of the tragedy, was to be brought home by the two bodyguards themselves, and instead converted the contents of the letter into digital information and sent it to the Secret Service.

The security officials, who received a brief report on Woo Jin-gil’s suicide, were shocked to see the contents of the suicide letter, which was converted into digital information shortly after a while.

The contents of the suicide note that Professor Woo Jin-gil left after taking his life were like this.

Professor Woo Jin-gil’s suicide note, which began with “First of all, I will replace the sin of betraying my country by death for the sake of the safety of my family,” was beyond imagination.

On June 22nd, 2021, I got a call from my daughter in Hong Kong. Unidentified men broke into the apartment and kidnapped herself and the children, imprisoned them in an unknown place for a day, and only she was just released.

I was surprised and told to report to the Hong Kong police, but the kidnappers threatened to kill the two children immediately. I heard a shocking story from my daughter when I couldn’t report it.

They were not ordinary kidnappers for money. The kidnappers knew exactly who I was.

The kidnappers asked through her was if I do not provide the key plasma technology information they threatened me to kill my grandson and granddaughter and scatter the body in the waters of Hong Kong.

I had to choose to live in an unforgettable pain every day. After days of agonizing over whether it was my country or my family, I ended up choosing my family.

I was able to store all of the plasma core technologies of my class that I could access in a smartphone USIM chip and trick the laboratory’s security system and bring them out.

I have provided the kidnappers with a total of four times key plasma-related technical information until last month. And one of plasma’s core technology information, which was not accessible at an out-of-authority level, was able to be captured three weeks ago by the promotion of the lead researcher, and today I delivered the last information of the core technology to the kidnappers.

When I provided the last key plasma technology information, the kidnappers returned my grandchildren and grandchildren to my daughter’s arms, as a promise for those who were taken hostage for two years,

I, who betrayed my country for the sake of my family’s safety, will repay my sin by dying like this. I would appreciate it if you could protect my daughter’s family, who are going back to Korea.

And the list of information provided to the kidnapper is on my personal computer D drive in the lab, and all the information provided to them is a password that can be traced over after connecting to the Internet. Please capture the kidnappers who have suffered for me and my daughter’s family for more than two years.

Lastly, I’m really sorry for the two bodyguards who guarded me day and night. I’m so sorry.

The executives in security office 1 who read all of Professor Woo Jin-gil’s suicide note felt choked up.

As the heavy air weighed heavily on the meeting room of security room 1, Oh Hyun-hoon, the first chief of the department, opened his mouth.

“Professor Woo must have been very distressed. Has Professor Woo’s daughter’s family been identified?

“Yes, They will be arriving in Korea with a 21:00 Korean time flight.”

Security room 1 Intelligence Division Manager Heo Seung-tae answered.

We will take personal protection measures from arrival at Incheon Airport. Which department can volunteer for?”

“Yes, Team Four and Team Three.”

“All right! Professor Woo’s daughter’s family should be dedicated to Division 4 and 3. If you’re short of people, section 4 will tell you right away! I’ll get you other personnel somehow.”

“Yes, I see. Chief”

“By the way, sir! Shouldn’t we let the NIS know this right now? SSS classified confidentiality, which is not class-S classified and is the highest classified class of state has been handed over to an unidentified group.”

“Of course I’ll have to let it know. After meeting with the Director first.”

Oh Hyun-hoon, the first chief of the department, was about to lose his head thinking about what was going to happen. He grabbed the back of his neck and turned his head wide*.

“This is going to be a huge after storm for the country. Damn it!”

Officials in the first security office also looked at the first Chief of staff Oh Hyun-hoon with worried expressions.

“What are you doing? The meeting is over! Team 4 immediately send Team 3 to Incheon Airport, and the rest of the managers tell each team leader to strengthen the security for the person you’re currently guarding.”

“Yes, sir.”

At the same time, officials in the first security office hurriedly got up from their seats and left the conference room or called somewhere urgently.

It was the highest emergency since the establishment of the Secret Service.

Namjoo Seoul Metropolitan Gangnam-gu National Intelligence Service (Conference room of Foreign Intelligence).

The Foreign Intelligence Service immediately launched a case of confidential leaks after the National Intelligence Service informed the National Intelligence Service of the confidential leaks of plasma. First of all, the Foreign Intelligence Service naturally took charge of the case because it happened overseas and confidentiality was required.

The confidential information leaked is said to be a key plasma-related technology. I’ll stop here because you won’t know the details. For more information, the most urgent situation is to track down the kidnappers who kidnapped Woo Eun-seo, the daughter of the late professor Woo Jin-gil, and the two children. The information confirmed so far is that the kidnappers are familiar with Hong Kong, fluent in English, and one of the kidnappers spoke Mandarin.”

With given the situation, Director Kang Ki-won himself briefly explained how the incident happened.

In the next two hours, the Woo Eun-seo’s family will arrive at Incheon Airport. The Secret Service has been placed under security as a personal protection measure. South Korea’s Foreign Intelligence Agency should recruit one team to secure as much information as possible from Woo Eun-seo. With the current information, it is dredge for finding a needle in the sea.”

While Director Kang Ki-won explained, the conference room screen showed various personal information as well as the faces of Woo Eun-seo and her family.

The first division immediately flies to Hong Kong to launch an on-site investigation. One team from Division 2 will be transferred to Incheon Airport and the rest of the team will investigate all criminal organizations in Hong Kong without missing any. Division 3 should investigate overall criminal organizations outside of Hong Kong, including Southeast Asia and Macau. Divisions 4 and 5 are required to take over the duties currently being undertaken in Divisions 1 through 3. Do you have any questions?”

Director Kang Ki-won, who gave directions continuously, looked around at senior executives.

“Yes, I do.”

It was Section 1 Manager Lee Ja-sung

“What is it?”

“As in the suicide note, the information provided to the kidnappers is said to have a traceable code inserted, and is that part taken by another department?”

“Yes, the Cyber Security Bureau has decided to investigate it.”

“Director, shouldn’t we maximize efficiency as it’s a serious matter? Wouldn’t it be better to have the cyber security bureau agents transfer in our department for a joint investigation?”

Director Kang Ki-won had a moment to think about Manager Lee Ja-sung’s opinion.

“That’s not a bad idea, I’ll discuss it with Director Chuck and let you know. Let’s start with our own agency. Again, the leaked information is state-classified SSS. Currently, Blue House is said to have turned upside down. You know what I mean?”

“Yes, sir.”

“All right, I always say, take care of yourself.”

Manager Lee Ja-sung, who returned to his office in Division 1, gathered team leaders to the conference room. Four team leaders sat down, except for Kim Ki-ho, the Chief of the fifth team who is currently overseas.

“I’m sure they’ve all heard about it roughly. SSS class information, the highest class of state secrets, has been leaked. It is said to be a key technology related to plasma. I will give you detailed information and explanation on Skybus. To get to the point, all four teams will move to Hong Kong in the next two hours except for the team five.”.

“Do you mean everybody?”

Chief Park Gi-oong raised his hand and asked a question.

“What did you hear? Didn’t I say everyone?”

“Woah! Hong Kong all of a sudden. It’s my first vacation in a year starting next Monday..”

Chief Park Gi-oong, who had a teary face, spoke in a crawling voice and finally blurred the end of his speech.

“Hey! Chief Park! That’s great, Why don’t you think Hong Kong as a vacation spot?”

“Damn it.”

When Yoon Tae-jin, a colleague of the National Intelligence Service, and Park Gi-oong, a Chief, quarreled, Lee Ja-sung, a manager of the division, narrowed the gap between their eyes and said,

“I don’t think there are one or two people who’s neck will fly away with this case. It’s such a serious case. Don’t take it easy and listen to it seriously. I am sorry about Chief Park’s vacation, but it is postponed indefintely. The same is true of other agents. Until this case is settled, there will be no vacation with us.”

While Chief Yoon Tae-jin was smiling with a mischievous face, Chief Park Gi-oong’s face, who had to return his vacation after a year, had turned into the face of the Grim Reaper. Shin Eun-ha, the team leader of the third team, who founded that face funny, added oil to the burning fire.

“Chief. Park? Didn’t you say you wanted to go to Hong Kong before? It’s a special sale period right now in Hong Kong, so go shopping at the shopping center. Won’t the Manager take that much time out?”

“Ha! Team leader Shin is really..”

“Ho ho ho”

At this time, Park Gi-oong, the first team Chief, focused on Sung Sang-yoon, the fourth team Chief. At the Chief level, Sung Sang-yoon, the youngest of the team, said with a puzzled look at Park Ki-woong’s sudden stare, pretending to open both hands.

“Chief Park! Why do you look at me like that when I am standing still ‘

“You were gonna say something, too, weren’t you?”

“Eh? How can I joke around with a senior who is like heaven?”

“Don’t be ridiculous! It’s written on your face. Son of a b*tch!”

“Whoa!”

Sung Sang-yoon, the 4th team chief who was cursed like a bolt out of the blue, looked at Yoon Tae-jin, the 2nd team chief, with an unfair look on his face. Then Yoon Tae-jin, the team chief, smiled and said.

“Hey! I think it’s written on your face. Your lips are itchy like you wanting to tease Chief Park.”

“Wow! Calling these people seniors, I don’t even have work luck!”

“Come on! We don’t have time. Stop talking nonsense and we don’t have time. Tell your team members to get ready for their business trip to Hong Kong right away! They gather at the rooftop landing site of the main building at exactly 24:00. Move.”

“Yes, sir.”
