(Personal Details Report)

This is the fourth time.

According to the analysis, we only have about three days...

to save Park In Hye.

We're NIS special crime team, and we'll work in conjunction...

with you starting today on the Park In Hye case.

Work in conjunction, my foot.

The culprit chose women of his type by looking at...

the used goods website's member galleries.

It seems like he committed crimes by luring them...

with different used goods.

We have one day left.

If we don't find her within 24 hours,

she'll be murdered.

It's already too late.

No.

So? You want to give up again and let her die?

Hello? Hello?

(The Southwestern Gyeonggi Province Serial Murder Case)

He is the most likely suspect that fits our profile.

Where's Choi Na Young?

Who's that?

The body had defense marks.

But Park Jae Min has no wounds.

He has an accomplice.

He spent three years in a youth detention center for theft.

It's his friend from the detention center.

His name is Ma Hyun Tae.

Ma Hyun Tae. 25 years old.

He's been going in and out of the center...

since he was 15.

What is his current address?

You first entered...

a youth detention center when you were 16.

You're timid,

and small.

It must have been tough to hold out on your own.

You must have needed someone to protect you.

And you probably relied on him more and more.

Who could that be?

Ma Hyun Tae.

Did he order you to take the woman?

They don't turn the lights off even at night...

in the youth detention center.

So that we can watch each other...

just in case anyone commits suicide.

Usually, the leader of the room is in charge of it.

Ma Hyun Tae was the leader,

and I was the second.

Then one day, some kid...

sharpened his toothbrush...

and slit his wrist.

Look at him.

After he was treated in the medical room,

Ma Hyun Tae took him to the furnace room, and then...

he handed me a pipe.

He told me to prevent this from ever happening again.

I did what Ma Hyun Tae told me to do.

What the room leader says...

is the law.

So...

what is it that you want to say?

You only followed Ma Hyun Tae's order?

Authorities have found leads on...

the Southwest Gyeonggi Province serial murder case...

that has five victims.

The police revealed that the perpetrators searched for targets...

on a used goods websites,

and meticulously planned their course of action...

to prepare for the crime.

This is the 112 report center. What's the reason for your call?

Hello?

I...

I have something to report.

- Are you okay? - Go follow him.

Go.

He killed Ma Hyun Tae.

We should never miss him.

I'll handle it myself. Just leave it to me.

Stop the blood with this first.

Focus on your driving.

Just do as I say.

Team Manager Kang.

Ma Hyun Tae is murdered.

We're currently chasing the culprit.

I see.

Be careful.

Keep me updated.

It sounds very urgent.

Is everything all right?

Apparently Ma Hyun Tae got murdered.

Oh, really?

You look calm.

He always caused troubles.

Who killed Ma Hyun Tae?

I don't know.

Who would that be?

I mean, I told you already.

This will be...

only the beginning.

Watch out for the stroller.

What was that?

Call the police. Call the police.

Are you okay?

Give me your phone. I'll call the police.

Hey, Lee Han.

The suspect Sun Woo went to see got murdered.

We don't have time. Try abbreviations or birthdays.

Hey.

Are you sleeping?

What is it? Did you think of something?

Everything has something to do with numbers.

He also has chamomile tea and melatonin. What does that indicate?

They both help with insomnia.

Gosh.

- What is it? - Let me see.

You have a deep cut.

You should have gone to the hospital.

It's fine. I'll take care of it.

Stay still.

Hold on for a moment.

Keep pressure on that.

Did you check the car I asked you about?

It was a stolen car?

Call me as soon as you locate its whereabouts.

It's okay now. Let's go.

It's on the second floor.

Over.

There's no trace of resistance.

He must have been attacked while he was defenseless.

It seems like it was punishment for betrayal.

It must have been a warning to someone.

I can even see fear in his face.

Who could do this?

It might not have been simple fear.

Are you trying to say it was a psychological fear like trauma?

- Are you feeling all right? - I'm fine.

How is Park Jae Min?

It's as we expected.

He's clever, but he's getting tired.

We need to tighten our grip on his throat...

at one go.

He has a passport and a brochure for a passenger terminal.

And he was calling the police before he died.

What do you think that means?

He must have been trying to run away from the culprit.

Where do we start?

The youth detention center.

Something must have happened there.

Something must have happened...

between Park Jae Min, Ma Hyun Tae, and someone else...

who has ordered Park Jae Min to kill women and killed Ma Hyun Tae...

to keep him quiet.

I can drive. Why are you so stubborn?

It's fine.

We'll be there soon. You should get some sleep.

You asked me how I knew the victim.

Do you remember the hospital explosion...

that happened a year ago?

Yes, but how is that related?

Na Young...

is the sister of my colleague who died in the accident.

I was a police officer too.

I was in the Violent Crimes Unit to meet the female quota...

and had to make coffee and dinner reservations for two years.

All I did was organizing sports day programs.

I was never sent to the field.

They said it'd only cause them trouble if I got hurt on site.

It only made me motivated.

And that's what led me here.

I'm not complaining. I'm just trying to say...

I understand you.

Na Young is alive.

And we can save her.

The cat must be feeling lonely without the owner.

What is it? Are you going to talk about smells...

or something strange like that?

Cats could have germs called toxoplasma gondii.

The probability of dying is 1.5 times higher if...

- Then this... - Oh my goodness.

We have one more chance now.

Wait.

What is it?

To a man living alone, what would his cat...

mean to him?

It'd be like a family to him.

He went into youth detention center after his father left him.

Some people who haven't been loved by their parents...

have pets to give their love to something weak...

as a compensation.

Filius.

It's Latin for a son or a child.

You know this is the last chance, right?

Yes.

- We don't have anything yet. - Min Young.

Min Young, Min Young! Min Young, Min Young!

What?

I'm going to ask you a question.

There's something I don't understand.

Go ahead.

If what you said was true, you would have been...

the second-in-command among the children at the center.

You remember everything I say?

I never forget important things.

Even more so if it's a lie.

The more important thing is...

who was the boy that slit his wrist...

with a toothbrush?

Scumbag.

I think...

it was you.

Stop it!

Should I keep going?

Or do you want to tell me?

I remember him. He had a hard time.

Children bullied him too.

Did anything strange happen?

That is...

Someone's life depends on this.

Please.

Around that time, one child was found dead...

in the boiler room.

These two were the last witnesses to have seen him.

(Prisoner Details)

But they wouldn't say anything.

The superiors wanted to keep it quiet and settled it as an accident.

So neither of them talked?

No.

They looked really scared...

and sat there quietly.

Right there.

That day...

I was hung upside down...

in a dark furnace room.

In front of me,

Ma Hyun Tae and the second leader were standing there with a pipe.

They beat me so much...

that I didn't feel anything.

That's when...

they untied me.

I wondered...

if it's over now.

But...

I was wrong.

Kids that age...

don't know when to stop.

Ma Hyun Tae came up and...

took my pants off.

Then the second leader walked up.

He said he will make me...

never to think of committing suicide.

What next?

But then...

someone came down to the basement.

Everyone was so surprised...

that they just froze.

That person came up to me.

Then he said...

Do you want me to kill one of them?

Then...

what will do you for me?

I'll do anything. I'll do anything for you.

Let's stay together until the end.

There, there.

Now, which one? Pick one.

Which one?

I'm sorry. I'll never do it again.

I'm so sorry, Jae Min.

I'll never do it again.

Jae Min, I'm begging you. Jae Min.

I'm begging you.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

This is...

what happened in the furnace room that day.

Who is that man?

I can't say.

Tell me who he is. Who is he?

I can't say it. I can't say it!

You don't have to say it.

I already found who he is.

A correctional officer?

Yes.

Someone so close to figure out...

the relationship of two people.

A person who has the power to subdue the kids easily.

It's the list of guards who worked there from 2011 until now.

Everything from age, height, family, address,

and even the medical record.

I got all of it.

There's no suspicious guard to be the suspect.

- Hello. - Hello.

Excuse me.

What does he do?

He's a probation officer.

There are correction programs held regularly.

A probation officer?

Someone who can walk in and out of here freely,

and has the same level of power as the guards.

Someone who has a relationship with both Park Jae Min and Ma Hyun Tae...

and has paranoia.

Jae Min didn't have many friends.

Could it be anyone who came with Jae Min?

Ahn Sang Cheol.

Do you still see illusions when you set fire?

Yes.

They don't disappear.

Actually...

Yes?

I imagine stabbing women...

every time I do that.

I see.

Do you set fire every time...

you have those thoughts?

Yes.

Mr. Ahn.

What should I do?

A punk like you can't do anything but to listen to me.

Pardon?

Why would you start a fire?

You should rather...

kill women for real.

Hey, look at me.

What do you say?

Do you want me to help you?

Yes?

Yes?

Can you help me for real?

We don't have time to wait. We should just go in.

Do you think he would...

confess when he's caught?

What if there's another accomplice?

Let's wait for a bit now.

They're working out the location with the video.

It's me. How did it go?

He deliberately changed the IP address.

It will take some time.

Okay. Call me as soon as you find anything.

We don't have any other choice.

We must capture him and make him confess.

Wait.

Ahn Sang Cheol is moving.

Something's off. Let's stop the car.

- What? - There's no one on the street,

but he stopped at the red light.

He doesn't forget to turn on the signal.

He slows down for the yellow light.

Does he look like a murderer who is on the way to get rid of his victim?

Ahn Sang Cheol has paranoia.

Obeying the traffic law can be a sign of paranoia.

Paranoia?

No.

If he's obsessed to obey the traffic law, he wouldn't...

cross the stop line.

Let's stop the car for now.

Get out of the vehicle, punk!

Can we watch this with maximum speed?

Okay, wait a minute.

Stop. It's right there.

Do you see that? The wire is linked to the light bulb.

Yes, but what about it?

Let's focus on the light bulb and watch it every 12 seconds.

All right.

Stop. Right there.

It's swinging back and forth like a pendulum.

Can you see that it's swinging back and forth at a constant speed?

Yes, I see it.

It could mean that the floor is slanted or...

It could be the subway.

I know because I've lived near one.

Every time the train passed by, my room used to shake a little.

But it's too slow for that.

It's not because of the floor.

The light bulb is swinging consistently...

because of the waves.

It must be floating on water.

What?

It's a boat? Where?

The only place that can send real time videos is Han River.

But there are more than 600 ships or storage units...

docked near Han River.

I found ones within the 30km radius considering the moving distance.

There's a high possibility that it's one of these three.

Can you get more specific locations?

For now, this is all we can do.

What should we do? We barely have an hour left.

We need to do something to make Park Jae Min talk.

I'll need everyone's help.

Bring everyone in the building to this place.

We must make him think that...

we're all focused on this case.

And before the interrogation, lower the temperature as much as possible.

If his body temperature goes down, his brain will work slower.

Yes, sir.

Fill the boxes with files.

Put everything in, even blank papers.

And write down names next to them.

Whose names?

(Ahn Sang Cheol)

These are all the documents related to this serial murder case.

And it's all about one person.

He was arrested at last.

We're bringing him here.

We want him, not you.

He told us that it was your idea to lock the women inside the boat.

He's already trying to blame you for everything he did,

while you're here trying to protect him.

Don't lie to me.

He won't do that to me.

No, people tend to betray others...

once their lives are at risk.

Do you think he'd let you go like this?

You don't know anything.

You don't know my relationship with him.

You must have thought of him as a family,

while resenting your parents that left you.

So, where did that lead you?

Come to your senses.

Ahn Sang Cheol is trying to use your innocent mind.

He's worse than Ma Hyun Tae.

He's a murderer who is trying to use you.

Shut your mouth. Shut your mouth!

Shut it!

I found this from the articles left by the deceased.

It was in the wallet that belonged to your late father.

Ahn Sang Cheol is not your family.

These people in this picture...

are your real family.

This girl...

isn't dead yet.

Jae Min, tell us where she is.

We still have a chance to save her and return her to her family.

We can get there first.

We should wait for backup.

No, I won't wait this time.

It's here.

Oh my goodness.

We don't have time.

Follow me.

Follow me.

There's no one inside.

Ahn Sang Cheol must have taken her.

He knows that we're after him.

Let's divide the team into groups and search for them.

- I want to go with you. - I won't let the injured come.

You should stay here as support.

I can do it.

This is an order.

Follow me.

Gosh, it's really hard to climb this uphill road.

We don't have time. Get up.

Get up.

Are you tired?

Let me see. Let me see.

You shouldn't do this to me.

I can't see them anywhere.

We have 10 minutes left.

Even when he's cornered, he'll be looking for a quiet moment to kill.

We still have a chance.

These kinds of people are different from normal criminals.

They would put their lives at risk...

to complete the murder that they have planned.

Just like the bomb terrorist?

Are you saying that we can't stop him?

No, we can stop him.

We just have to think like them.

- Kang speaking. - I looked into the grid...

as you requested...

and found a shutdown youth training center nearby.

I'll send you the location now.

Any other anomalies?

Okay. Send me the address right away.

It's this way.

There's a building across the hill towards east.

He took Choi Na Young there.

Are you sure? What evidence do you have?

If we're wrong again, we won't have any more chances to save her.

It's the youth training center...

Ahn Sang Cheol worked at every weekend.

Before the center closed down,

there was a fire presumed to be arson.

It's the same time he left there.

I'm sure something happened there.

It's almost the time we first met.

Just wait a little longer.

Now,

let me begin.

There you go.

Let's see.

No.

Just like that.

Ahn Sang Cheol, stop right there.

What is this?

Darn it.

Shoot me.

I told you to shoot me!

Throw away the gun if you want her alive.

Or just shoot me, so I can shoot you too.

But that gun.

Do you even know how to use it?

Your thing down there under your pants.

You can't even get that thing up.

Stop there.

Don't you come any closer!

Help me.

I suppose you never had a chance to use it anyway.

Shall I say some things about you?

I bet you've never...

actually dated a girl in your life.

You're a lowly scum who don't even have the courage to talk to girls...

without using violence.

You used to be at a youth training center. Why?

You can't forget what happened there?

There,

you asked a girl out for the first time, but she rejected you.

Since that day, you probably thought everyone...

laughs at you.

That's hilarious. He asked you out?

Stop blabbering and shut your mouth.

What's wrong?

There's something else you really want to hide.

It was probably afterward...

that your thing stopped working.

Look at you.

Every time that memory popped up, you abducted and stabbed women...

because scums like you only get turned on by things like that.

You're just a pathetic impotent man...

with OCD.

Am I wrong?

Shoot me right now if you want to, you pervert!

I'll kill you.

Don't move.

Don't resist!

Na Young.

Na Young, wake up. It's me!

Na Young.

It's okay. You're okay. It's all over.

It's okay.

It's okay. It's okay.

It hurts.

Hyun Jun.

"The belief..."

"in a supernatural source of evil is not necessary."

"Men alone are..."

"quite capable of every wickedness."

Joseph Conrad.

Last night around 10pm,

the victim was safely rescued,

and the suspect Ahn Sang Cheol was immediately arrested at the scene.

Ahn Sang Cheol is a likely suspect for the four murders...

and two missing women we've identified so far.

Her makeup looks incredible.

How does it look?

It's makeup artist Nana Hwang's work.

It looks natural,

but perfect for her.

Then why is your makeup always all over the top?

The hostage for this recent case...

Never mind.

Min Young looks best...

when she's in front of reporters.

That's called a psychological illusion.

Just wearing a uniform and standing up high behind a podium...

makes you look better than everyone else.

We call this the Lee Han effect.

Let's go.

There's a new pasta place nearby.

Their anchovy pasta is amazing.

You'll treat me, right?

I maxed out my card for this month.

- Lee Han effect? - Thank you for treating me.

- Sure. - Wait for me.

Are these the only recommendations for field agents?

This was added by Team Manager Kang.

(Recommendation for Special Crimes Unit)

Team Manager Kang Ki Hyung recommended Kim Hyun Jun?

This is interesting.

He graduated top in his profiling class from the police academy.

His background is not bad.

What do you think?

You said CEO Park told you he'll help you out...

if you give him the buildings.

He threatened you, which is why you killed him.

I didn't kill him.

That night, I...

Anyway, it's really not me.

How many times do I have to tell you?

If you didn't kill him that night,

give me an alibi.

What did you do that night? Where were you?

He didn't do it. Just let him go.

What are you talking about?

Stabbing someone that hard with a knife...

means intense rage and self-expression.

If the motive's simple,

there's no need to be that complicated and risky.

An alibi he can't reveal even when he's caught as a suspect?

Don't you need to question a witness?

I think his wife would know better what he did that night.

That's not true!

Detective, I really can't.

I went to a motel that night.

If my wife finds out that I went to a motel again with another woman,

she'll really kill me. That'd be a real murder.

What?

- My gosh. - Goodness.

Call his wife. Get her to answer.

Get her number.

Here.

What is this?

It's a recommendation and application form for the NCI.

Have you considered working with us?

Why didn't you say...

that you're a profiler?

I told you.

I'm not interested in that.

Do you still think the same way?

Just as I misunderstood you,

silence often creates misunderstandings.

And sometimes, time solves it.

What is it that you want to say?

I'm talking about what happened...

that day.

Call me if you're interested.

How are you?

Sang Hyeon,

I'm here to tell you about something.

I've blamed NCI for your death.

But now, I don't know what to do.

I know that you visit him every year.

You went to the Violent Crimes Unit, right?

I need to ask you something...

about what happened that day.

Who gave the last order before the explosion?

Are you still curious about that?

There are days...

when toothed wheels of a bicycle don't fit each other.

It was a day like that for me.

Yes,

it was me.

I was wrong.

I couldn't tell you because of the superiors.

In fact, I didn't want to tell you.

Why didn't I know then...

that the way downhill is so easy?

I'm going to spend...

the rest of my life with an apologetic mind...

for all of you.

Do you still have the same nightmare?

Do you remember...

the first case...

you took at NCI?

Ha Sun Woo.

Our job...

is to chase people devoid of humanity.

We have to see people who are at the very bottom.

Even I see monsters like that in my dreams.

But when I do, I try to look at the children that we have saved.

We don't always save children from these monsters,

but we do enough to feel proud.

We do enough to withstand nightmares.

Please help me.

You will be able to sleep if you think about Hyeon Ji.

(NCI)

Chief Director Baek is waiting for you. Let's go.

All right.

Director Hwang, is that the new recruit with a bad temper?

Yes, he's so handsome and tall.

I can smell the pheromone of a tough male.

It's wrong to say that pheromones attract the opposite sex.

Pheromones are released inside insects...

that induce certain behaviors or growth.

And there is no scientific proof that people exchange pheromones.

In fact, there is no such thing as pheromones...

between humans.

Of course, it's Doctor Lee's lecture on the world learned from books.

Is today's topic chemistry?

No, it's biology.

Someone from Congressman Song's team was at the forum.

It seemed like they were positive about it.

I passed on the information to Reporter Hwang,

and it will be included in a three-page-long editorial column.

Well done.

Tell me the details when you come back.

Yes, sir. I'll arrive at the office in two hours.

Attention all passengers,

there has been an unexpected incident,

and the train has stopped.

Please stay seated and wait for a moment.

Did something happen outside?

It's nothing.

I can't be late.

If you wait a little, it will be fine.

You don't have to worry.

The train will depart shortly.

My goodness.

Excuse me.

What's going on?

Are you on duty?

Yes. I'm in the NCI.

A murder suspect I was chasing...

got hit by a train and died.

I think his accomplice is on this train.

Is there anything I can do to help?

Just pretend you don't know.

What are you doing? Let go.

What?

Don't move!

I'll get right on it.

Today is his first day at work.

Introduce yourself.

You can introduce yourself after work.

We have a case. Team Manager Kang called for a meeting.

This is the security feed from the train car.

There are a total of seven hostages in the car.

The two dead victims are the police officer and the attendant.

Wait, pause the feed.

That can't be.

Oh my goodness.

Is that Min Young?

(Criminal Minds)

If you send any message or code, I'll kill you!

Min Young's held hostage?

I'll do it. Take me.

It's the legendary serial killer that had...

the whole country in fear.

We'll take over negotiations from this point on.

He's an omnivore.

I'll kill everyone here!

He has murdered people regardless of age and gender.

The one who reported it is the culprit.

Are you saying this case is your fault?

It's all over now.
