EPISODE 16

Detective Kang!

I know you can't do this.

You're not cruel enough to do it.

Let's...

part ways smiling.

Pil-seong, please.

Listen to me carefully.

Do you understand?

You're running out of time.

You have less than two minutes left.

I can't do it.

I just can't.

We'll meet again.

I need you to do me a favor.

Promise me you won't do anything stupid.

Don't take your own life

even if the pain is too much to handle.

If you do, we won't be able to meet again.

You know what I mean, right?

My face,

my eyes, my nose, my lips,

my voice, and even my nasty temper...

You must remember them all.

Memorize them all

just like how you memorize
the national anthem.

That way, when we meet again
in our next life,

we'll immediately recognize each other.

I love you.

Damn it!

I believe you.

I'll see you soon.

There's no reason for you
to keep living this miserable life,

but I doubt

you'll choose to take your own life.

You can't if you want to meet her again.

If you commit suicide,
you'll lose that chance.

That's why

I'll help make the decision

easier for you.

What now?

Even if you die and go to Heaven,

you won't be able to reunite with her.

EMERGENCY ROOM

Please wait outside.

Any later and she could have died.

Your daughter will make a full recovery.

This is the evidence
that was found at the crime scene.

We'll look into them.

Sure thing.

Detective Choe Nam-hyeon's car and phone
were found here.

We have a suspect? A detective?

What's his name?

Kang Pil-seong?

Mister.

Yes?

Where's Ms. Hong?

She got sick,

so she went to another hospital.

Is it because

the bad man hit her?

She's better now.

Did you tell the bad man off?

Yes.

You're lying.

You're a terrible liar.

I can see it in your eyes.

Promise me you'll tell that bad man off.

Promise me that you won't let him
hurt me and Ms. Hong.

I promise.

The police are investigating

a serial murder case which happened in
the Sangdong area.

What's shocking is that the prime suspect

is a detective of
Sangdong Station's Violent Crimes Unit.

The police have issued an APB
on Detective Kang Pil-seong,

who is the prime suspect
of the murders of a fortune teller

and a fellow detective.

-Secure the area.
-He's over there.

It's him!

-Damn it.
-Get him!

Stop!

He's over there

-Kang Pil-seong.
-Stop!

Stop right there!

Kang Pil-seong!

-Stop!
-Shit.

Search the area.

-Well?
-No one saw where he went.

Damn it.

YEOSAN CHURCH

No...

I can't die like this.

Alleged serial killer Kang Pil-seong
is still at large.

Detective Kang of Sangdong Police Station

is suspected in seven counts of murder.

He went into hiding after killing
an online clothing shop owner

and the authorities are on edge.

They are looking out for additional crimes

as well as the possibility
of him fleeing the country.

WANTED
KANG PIL-SEONG

Meanwhile, the police is investigating
the motives behind these murders.

A violent crimes detective
was known for his amicable personality.

The motives

surrounding all the murders are vague,
which is

hindering the police investigation.

The police investigating
the serial killings

are after the prime suspect,
Detective Kang of Sangdong Police Station,

but to no avail.

According to the police,

additional crimes of his
could be revealed,

which is why they have
deemed him a flight risk.

This isn't the happy ending I wanted.

How dare you run around in a church?

My gosh. I can't believe
the sisterhood accepted

the perpetual profession of someone
so immature.

He...

What is it?

He opened his eyes. He looked at me!

What?

The man...

You must be hungry.

You slept for two days straight,
so of course you are.

Mother...

I would've been quite upset if you

called me "Sister."

Mother.

I...

I'm here because--

A child doesn't need a reason
to come home to his mother.

Come to the dining room.

I'll clean your wound after you eat.

You've grown up.

Just so you know, it's been 20 years
since you last came.

Eat up. Everything's ready.

Sister Stephanie,

it's rude to stare at people.

How did you know without even looking?

"I have eyes in the back of my head."

I have eyes in the back of my head.

Here.

Eat up.

-Amen.
-Amen.

He didn't pray.

How do you know?
Did you pray with your eyes open?

Just so you know, you don't pray with your
eyes and hands. You pray with your heart.

You watched him as you prayed?

Not praying at all is better than
praying 100 times like that.

You're always nagging at me.

It's just the two of us here,

so who am I supposed to nag?

Should I nag at the birds flying above us?

She's Sister Stephanie.

The sisterhood must be out of its mind

to accept the perpetual profession
of someone like her.

-Who do you most admire again?
-BTS.

See how kids are these days?

It's for our guest.

Here you go.

Mother, you too.

Alleged serial killer Kang Pil-seong
is still at large.

Kang Pil-seong, a detective
at Sangdong Police Station,

is assumed to have killed
seven people until now.

He went into hiding after having murdered
an online shopping mall manager, Hong.

And it's straining
the investigation authorities.

They are worried he might murder
more people

and they think
he could try to flee abroad...

Everything's still the same, isn't it?

Yes, it is.

When you first came here,

you had a hard time getting along
with the other kids.

You were clumsy and had a hard time
understanding what other people said.

When I told you to bring a broom,
you'd bring a dustpan.

And when I told you to find the hymnbook,

you'd bring me a pop magazine.

I was quite stupid, wasn't I?

No, you weren't quite stupid.

You were really stupid.

I'll be leaving tomorrow morning.

That's exactly how you left 20 years ago.

You're going to do that again?

There's something I need to do.

Can you pray for me
so that I can get it done properly?

Do you remember
what I always used to say to you?

Anger cannot beat desperation.

And evil can never beat virtue.

Never forget that.

And you'll be fine.

Okay?

Okay.

The feeling of missing someone

goes hand in hand
with memories of that person.

You cannot miss someone
you do not share any memories with.

Are you interested in me?

I feel as if I finally met the likes of me
for the first time in 40,000 years.

Don't ask questions.
Just grab a drink with me.

Don't look at me adoringly

and don't let your heart flutter.

Don't cry

and don't miss me.

I prayed every night.

There was a chapel
right in front of our house.

But the man above

never answered to any of my prayers.

You say that this God you believe
and worship in

is full of love.

What a load of crap.

I was just a 10-year-old boy.
I was beaten up by my dad every night

with his belt, shovel, and fists

until my entire body
was covered in bruises.

But this God you worship
never answered to any of my prayers.

He was a cold-hearted son of a bitch.

My mom...

That night when she was beaten up

until her skull started to show
by my so-called dad,

I heard the choir

sing hymns at the chapel
that was in front of my house...

That's when I stopped
relying on the God you worship

and decided to judge that devil myself.

That moment...

That moment when my pain
suddenly turned into pleasure...

That thrilling moment...

Even until that moment,

that God of yours...

remained a coward.

Now, it's time

for me to judge your God.

Sister.

Why don't you say something?

Anger

cannot beat desperation.

And evil

can never beat virtue.

Amen.

Amen.

No...

Mother!

Mother.

Mother.

Mother... Mother.

I took a glimpse at your life.

And it was quite easy to predict
where you would go

when you had nowhere else to go.

You promised me
that you'll stop killing people.

Hey.

You broke your promise.

No.

I didn't kill anyone.

I just judged God
in the name of Hwang Dae-du.

He never showed up

so I judged this proxy instead.

Can I at least know why?

Why are you so obsessed with me?

You got what you asked for

and completely destroyed the entire world.

So why are you still obsessed with me?

No matter how hard I think about it
I just can't understand.

You and I have a lot in common.

We started off the same,

but we went in different directions.

I don't want to blame that.

But...

I thought you of all people,

who has been through
the same pain as I have,

would at least understand
where I was coming from.

I thought you'd ask me

at least once

how difficult it must've been.

That's it?

That's your reason?

Solely because...

I didn't ask you that one question?

That's why you were determined
to kill everyone I love

and put an end to this world?

That's how desperate I was

to hear

that one question.

I'll tell you why I'm here.

I'm here to see what I want to see.

I never thought you'd run away like this.

From now on,
I'm going to make airplanes crash,

derail trains,

and start a war.

Now that I've judged God,

it's my turn to judge the world.

You no longer have anywhere else to go.

You'll either get caught by the cops,

or you'll have to end your life
with this gun.

You just have to choose.

Oh, right.

Don't you want to know
how your girlfriend's doing?

She hid like a little mouse
the moment she entered my soul.

Even if she hides,
I'll still know where she is.

And no matter how hard she tries to run,

she still won't be able to escape my soul.

Pil-seong.

Although I was never able
to receive consolation from you,

the fact that you'll end up
walking the same path as me

will at least be able to comfort me.

You've done well...

all this time.

Damn it!

Anger

cannot beat desperation.

And evil

can never beat virtue.

Detective Kang! Damn it!

Stop right there!

-Stop right there, Kang Pil-seong!
-Stop!

-Catch him!
-Damn it!

My gosh!

Kang Pil-seong!

Be careful.

Damn it.

Hey, Kang Pil-seong!

Give up!

It's all over.

Hey, Kang Pil-seong!

Shit.

Damn it.

Detective Kang, listen to me carefully.

We might get the only chance
to save this world.

Hwang Dae-du will eat my soul.

I'm going to hide as soon as he does that.

I don't think I can hold out for long,

but I'll save up the power
that can be used only once.

Get it together
and listen to me carefully.

While we were hiding in the island,

I couldn't feel
Hwang Dae-du's energy at all.

It was mainly because
I was trying to avoid the reality,

but there was another reason.

Salt and spirits have an antipathy.

Seonbong Island is a few kilometers
away from the mainland,

and the ocean is in between.

If we isolate Hwang Dae-due's soul
in the middle of the sea,

it'll dissipate before
it reaches the mainland.

Lure Jang Chun-seop to the sea.

As far away as possible from the mainland.

You get what I'm saying, right?

Gosh, it's so cold.

Gosh, it's cold.

It's cold.

Dear pigeon

Where are you going?

Let's have a drink

Together

Chief Yu.

Shit.

CLOTHING DROP BOX

Damn it.

Detective Kang!

Detective Kang!

Stay focused.

JEIL AIR

The airport?

Shit.

Mr. Kim!

Mr. Kim, are you in there?

Jeez, what is it?

They want all the mechanics
to gather in the office now.

What for?

Apparently, we got a call or something.

Gosh, a call about what?

I don't know. A terror attack?
Something like that.

Hurry up.

All right, I'm coming.

My goodness.

Kang Pil-seong.

How did you know I'd be here?

What is this now?

Did you absorb all those lowly spirits?

Hwang Dae-du,
let's put an end to this once and for all.

I'm sick and tired of this.

Did absorbing those useless lowly spirits

make you feel as if you've become
Superman or something?

The spirits of those who committed suicide
are all dissipating, you poor man.

They can't help you anymore.

I know I promised you that I'd never
kill you with my own two hands,

but I'll have to go back on my word.

I'm going to kill you

in the most painful way.

From your head, shoulders,
and knees to your feet,

I will pulverize you.

Detective Kang!

Detective Kang!

Detective Kang!

Hurry.

I can't hold on for too long.

Hurry up. Detective Kang, please hurry.

Come on.

You... Hong Seo-jeong.

Hong Seo-jeong!

I can't kill him.

I can't...

Pil-seong.

Avoid the heart and the lungs.

Incapacitate his limbs.

Gosh... Chief Yu.

Chief Yu...

Chief Yu!

Kang Pil-seong.

You used your brain for a change.

In the middle of nowhere in the ocean...

You've been through a lot.

I'll end your pain for you.

Does it mean that you, Kang Pil-seong,

will become Hwang Dae-du now?

No, don't.

If you take your own life,

you'll never be able to see
that lady of yours again.

Someday,

if we are born again

after a long time,

I'd gladly be your friend.

No, don't...

Don't. Don't do this. No.

Kang Pil-seong!

Jeez, that could've been a disaster.

Damn.

Hey, Kang Pil-seong.

Do you actually think you can control me?

Anger

cannot beat desperation.

And evil

can never

beat virtue.

Kang Pil-seong, you bastard!

ONE YEAR LATER

A year has passed,
but this place still gives me the creeps.

Well, you look completely normal.
What brings you here?

I'll just take a quick look around.

Gosh, you're weird.

I don't know
why you need to see this place,

but please make sure to lock the door.

FROM: HONG SEO-JEONG
TO: KANG PIL-SEONG

When you're reading this letter
a year from now,

how would we have changed?

Maybe we wouldn't be happy.

What we're going through at the moment

is too excruciatingly painful
for us to hope for happiness.

It's possible that we'd be hurting

and struggling a lot.

We might be missing each other terribly.

And perhaps...

Detective Kang.

I'm sure what we shared wouldn't end
in this world.

If we pray with all our heart,

I'm certain that we will meet again,
no matter when or where that may be.

Even if we can't be together
in this world,

what we shared
will keep us connected eternally.

We shall meet again.

From the earth to eternity.

I love you.

What?

It's snow. My gosh, it's snowing again.

It's been snowing every day.
Why are you making such a fuss?

Come on. It's beautiful.

Beautiful, my foot.
It'll be gone when it melts.

You know what?

Just because you can't see it
doesn't mean it's gone.

What's she saying?

What are you doing? Come on!

What?

You look familiar.

Do I know you?

You do look familiar.

Where have I seen you before?
