Scenes and places

The funeral standoff (2013)

Goldmoon's chairman has died and the whole syndicate gathers to bury him, with police photographing the mourners from outside. Insults fly and each side promises the other will fall first; it shows how thin the line between them already is.

Set in Goldmoon chairman's funeral hall — Where Goldmoon's men and the police meet over the old chairman's death.

A funeral hall packed with gang cars; the setting is described in the film, not named.

Chief Kang's succession plan (2013)

Chief Kang's side reviews who might take the dead chairman's seat and decides to push the succession in their favour. Ja-sung, who has served eight years undercover, is the one tool they have inside.

Set in Police headquarters — The room where the police weigh the candidates to lead Goldmoon.

A police office; the film gives no street or building.

Ja-sung's home is broken into (2013)

Joong-gu's men break into Ja-sung's house while his wife is inside. The police get her out, but the shock costs her the pregnancy, and Ja-sung begs Chief Kang to let him out.

Set in Ja-sung's house — A private home where the syndicate's war reaches the undercover cop's family.

An ordinary home; the film does not locate it.

Ja-sung and Jung meet (2013)

Ja-sung and Jung meet face to face, two friends bound by years in the same syndicate. Ja-sung carries a secret about his real job.

Set in Meeting place of Ja-sung and Jung (not named in the film) — The scene between the two friends who stand on opposite sides of the secret.

The film does not name this place; the production news only says the scene was shot in Geojin, Gangwon Province.

Filmed at Geojin, Goseong, Gangwon Province — The last day of filming, the scene where Lee Jung-jae and Hwang Jung-min meet, was shot in Geojin; the exact spot is not given. Google Maps · Apple Maps
