==Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©==

He drags the dead man to his car and throws him into his car trunk. Detective Gun-Soo's hard day is just beginning.

==Notes==
# Filming began August 29, 2013 and finished November 30, 2013.
# Early Korean title was "Moodumkkaji Ganda" (literally "Take it to the Grave"). A new Korean title of "Kkeutkkaji Ganda" (literally "Take it to the End") was announced on April 17, 2014. The change of name may have been out of respect to the sinking of the South Korean ferry ship Sewol which occurred a day earlier.
