Spoiler!
Taekjoo's higher ups WANT TAEKJOO DEAD. They're the main villains of this story. They deliberately messed up the photos to make Taekjoo think Zhenya was his partner and they try killing Taekjoo when he gets back to South Korea. They even use Taekjoo's mom as bait. They couldn't care less what happens to Taekjoo and it actually would've helped them if Zhenya had killed Taekjoo.
