I'm sorry.

I came too late.

Sorry.

I thought I was really going to die.

[chuckles]

[♪ soft music playing]

I, well…

I wanted to go someplace nice to give you this.

It's something I really want to give you.

Dojin…

Can't you…

just try it on?

Wow, it's pretty.

How did you know my ring size?

Uh…

Well, I have my ways.

It's a really pretty ring.

[♪ music ends]

Lately,

I've been…

very afraid of going into fires.

Do you know why?

Because you might not make it out?

Every firefighter goes in knowing they might not make it out.

It's not that.

If I don't make it out…

I won't be able to see you.

[♪ somber music playing]

That's what I'm afraid of.

Dojin.

- [Soojin] We have an emergency patient! - Let's take him inside.

[♪ ominous music playing]

[siren wailing]

[Hogae] We'll check for identification first.

[firefighter 1] Okay.

Wait a minute.

This is strange.

His pants are firefighting gear.

[chief firefighter] Majung Station, report your status now.

Majung Station, report your status!

[Taehwan] Majung Station, Kim Taehwan reporting in!

[Sungdong] Majung Station, Park Sungdong reporting in!

His light reflex is normal.

Please check if there are any other wounds on his head.

- [Jaehee] Please start an IV. - [nurse 1] Yes, doctor.

[Jaehee] Sir? Sir, can you hear me?

[breathes shakily]

What about Dojin? What happened?

[groans]

Please calm down. You can't move during treatment.

Dojin.

Dojin went in alone.

[panting]

Dojin didn't make it out!

- Please calm down. Calm down. - I have to go.

Dojin!

I said Dojin didn't make it out.

Dojin!

I'm sorry.

I promised to make it home in one piece.

[scoffs]

You're acting strange, Dojin.

You keep saying strange things.

[chuckles]

Don't cry too much.

Dojin?

Okay?

Wait, don't look over there. Look at me.

The firefighter said firefighters don't get burned.

Where is he?

I'm not sure. Where did he go?

[Anna crying]

It can't be him.

[Anna crying]

[sobbing]

He even gave me his gear to wear.

Did he burn…

CODE R98: Disease code for an unobserved death

The safest Taewon, respected and beloved Taewon Police

Anything from the shopping center's CCTV footage?

There were a lot of people, so we couldn't track anyone by CCTV.

There has to be something from the Jungmil Trade warehouse.

The warehouse is so remote that there are no CCTVs in that area.

[Pil] The warehouse had CCTVs,

but due to the fire…

It burned in the high heat.

Where's the whiteboard?

Both fires were reported at exactly 1:30 p.m.

They were simultaneous fires, not serial.

Isn't it just a coincidence that the fire at the shopping center broke out?

I heard it was caused by an overheated frying pan.

Many people go there for lunch since there are many restaurants.

That's why most of the firefighters were dispatched there

and why the warehouse lacked manpower.

That means he deliberately put up a smokescreen to draw attention away.

I'm sorry, but how?

How does one set a fire in two locations at the same time?

Is that even possible?

And they were reported at the same time.

Could it be that he isn't working alone?

But most people who commit serial violent crimes

are the lone wolf type.

Lone wolves don't stick together,

because they'll eventually fall apart.

Arson is different.

The process itself is complicated and time-consuming.

Overseas,

there were quite a few cases of couples committing these crimes together.

So this is starting to get really complicated.

We need to go back to the beginning of the case

and start with profiling the victims.

From serial arson to simultaneous fires,

this bastard only targeted firefighters.

[Hogae] They even left a signature mark?

I think they were targeting.

What do you mean?

Someone who would see the signature

the moment the fire burns and goes out.

[doorknob clanks]

Why are you already back at work? I told you to rest.

There's something you need to see.

[♪ ominous music playing]

There was oxygen left in the tank.

His mask was off when he was found.

Exactly.

Why did he take off the respirator that still had oxygen inside?

Was someone other than Dojin…

at the scene?

[door opens]

Oh.

What's going on?

You couldn't have been discharged yet, so why are you here in that state?

There's something he needs to tell you.

Dojin said

he saw a star-shaped flame in the warehouse.

[Dojin] Kisoo.

There's a star-shaped flame here, too.

I'll go after checking this.

[grumbles]

It's highly likely that this case isn't merely an accident.

If there's suspicion of murder…

My brother wouldn't want any questions to go unanswered.

[sighs]

[♪ tense music playing]

[sobbing]

Emergency rescue Bong Dojin

Shall we…

go out for a bit?

[engine revving]

[♪ somber music playing]

[Soon crying]

[breathes deeply]

What are the people left behind supposed to do

if you leave like that?

[Soon crying]

[♪ music fades]

Do we really have to go this far?

From this point on, the corpse is just evidence to catch a murderer.

Don't make it personal.

That's not as easy as it sounds.

[doctor] We'll verify the identity first.

He is the deceased Bong Dojin, correct?

Case number KICS 15383-82.

- I really can't do this. - Then wait outside.

What kind of situation is this?

- How could... - Hey.

Stop it.

Do you think it doesn't affect me?

At least one person needs to hold it together.

[Hogae breathes heavily]

Wait at the office.

Autopsy schedule Deceased: Bong Dojin

That's why…

I told you to come to the NFS.

The answers aren't always at the scene of the crime.

The NFS needs someone as talented as you, Officer Bong.

I'm making a serious offer right now.

Deceased: Bong Dojin

[Hogae] Here, I'm returning this.

You can keep it.

Carry it around.

A carabiner that saved your life is a talisman.

Then you use it. You need it more.

I think you would be stabbed to death sooner than I would be burned to death.

What do you think?

[examiner sighs]

[Hogae clicks tongue]

Why isn't Ms. Yun coming?

[pathologist 1] She said she would be here soon, but…

[clicks tongue]

Can someone other than Ms. Yun perform this autopsy?

[pathologist 2] I'll check.

[Hong] Sorry I was a bit late.

Ms. Yun, you don't have to perform this autopsy yourself.

[Hong] No, I'll do it.

The current time is 8:15 a.m.

Let's begin the autopsy.

Scalpel, please.

[♪ dramatic music playing]

[Hong] His clothes melted at the high heat and stuck onto his entire body.

Let's tidy things up before we get started.

Forceps, please.

The skin on his hands and feet is peeling.

There are cracks and ruptures all over his body.

His clothes acted as a wick for the fire, which accelerated the carbonization.

[camera shutter clicks]

He was wearing a ring on the pinky finger of his right hand.

The ring was removed after he died,

so no carbonization occurred under it.

He was breathing for some time after removing the respirator.

His eyes are gone as well.

His eyes are what?

[Hong] He took off his mask before he died

and had his eyes open until the very end.

Why did he take his mask off?

[Hong] Scalpel, please. Starting the incision.

Why did he take it off?

[♪ tense music playing]

[Hong exhales heavily]

[scalpel clatters]

[Hong] We'll examine the stomach contents.

[♪ intense music playing]

What is this?

What did you find?

[Hong] We'll need to run a chemical analysis on this.

Let's cut from the esophagus down to the stomach.

White crystals of an unknown element

are distributed from the stomach to the esophagus.

Your internal organs stop moving when you die.

The fact that these stopped at the esophagus

means they entered his body right before he died.

Please request an analysis of the foreign substances in the body.

[pathologist 2] Ms. Yun, we can do the sutures. Please go rest.

[Hong] No, I'll do it.

You two may leave now.

[pathologist 2] All right.

[Hong] You too, Detective Jin.

[Hogae] Okay.

[Dojin] Isn't the night view amazing?

This is a secret place only I knew about.

It's my welcome present for the newbie.

Thank you.

Oh, right. Did you write up a will?

Sorry? A will?

Has it been a month since you came to Taewon Fire Station?

Yes, that's right.

If it's been a month, write a will

and keep it somewhere deep inside your locker.

Why?

So your colleagues can find it

in case you don't make it back.

Do I have to anticipate that kind of situation, too?

You'll understand after being a firefighter for a year.

To Seol

[breathes deeply]

[sniffles]

- [Dojin] Dear Seol… - [sobs]

[sobs]

[Dojin] Dear Seol,

If there ever comes a day when I don't make it out of a fire

and you end up reading this,

I'd just be relieved by the fact that you weren't caught in the fire with me.

[crying]

We've identified what was in Officer Bong's stomach and esophagus.

Normal hydrocarbons, minerals, oils, organic fatty acids, resin,

and paraffin.

All of which make up a candle.

[♪ thrilling music playing]

How did a candle get into his body?

If it was forced through his mouth, traces of the perpetrator would remain.

The perpetrator's DNA could have remained on the skin.

However, the skin's epidermis was completely carbonized by the fire,

so it's impossible to detect.

We can't determine how it entered the body by autopsy alone.

Why and how did a candle

end up inside his body

just before death?

[cell phone buzzes]

We'll be able to solve the case once we figure that out.

Did you find something?

See you later, Ms. Yun.

[Youngsoo] I lost track of him while tailing him the night

before the simultaneous fires. But…

Why did you have to lose track of him the night before?

That's why I tracked him using cell towers the next morning

and got our two youngest members to follow him.

So we got something. Take a look.

This was taken exactly 30 minutes before the warehouse fire broke out.

There's a good chance he's the arsonist.

[reporter 1] We have received news that Ma Taehwa,

a murderer who was returning to prison after his stay of execution expired,

suffered acute kidney failure

and was rushed to a nearby hospital.

How's his condition?

- Not good. - Not good?

Take him inside, quickly!

[approaching footsteps]

[Hong] They say culprits always return to the scene of the crime.

I'm just joking.

I thought that by coming here,

I would be able to solve the problem that Officer Bong Dojin left behind,

but it's proving to be difficult.

[♪ ominous music playing]

According to the statement made by Majung Station's chief,

there was a second explosion while they were putting out the fire.

The estimated time of explosion was about an hour after the fire started.

All arsonists leave the scene after starting the fire.

That's human instinct.

In that case, how was the second explosion set off?

If it was an hour into putting out the fire,

we would be inside extinguishing embers after having suppressed the big flames.

Also, the first ignition point was at the easternmost part of the building,

but the second explosion occurred in the west,

on the opposite side.

That means these two ignition points were intentionally set up.

The missing link between the two ignition points.

Missing Link: Unavailable information required to solve a problem

Wouldn't that be…

this candle?

[♪ tense music playing]

A distinctive combustive property of candles

is you can control the combustion time according to the material and size.

That's why the term "sleeper fire" is used

since a fire or explosion is induced at a certain period of time

after lighting the fire.

A candle lasted an hour

between the two explosions?

The problem is,

how do we prove this?

[Seol sighs]

What would Dojin have done in this situation?

[cart clattering]

[♪ thrilling music playing]

You two are already here.

[Anna] I could use a little help.

I believe we're all thinking the same thing.

Gasoline

Let's say we're reconstructing the fire.

So shall we reconstruct the fire now?

Taewon Fire Station

[Pil] Detective Jin said he was sending over a warrant.

[Mr. Baek] A warrant?

Did you already find the arsonist's address?

[beeps]

What is this?

What's wrong?

Let's see.

[♪ ominous music playing]

[office phone ringing]

[♪ uneasy music playing]

We've identified a key suspect in the serial arson.

[paper rustles]

Who is it?

[Hogae] Two weeks before the serial arson took place,

as if conducting a preliminary survey, this person's phone signal was present

at Dochoon Villa, Mijoong Apartments, and the hotdog truck.

Crucially, this person was seen at the Jungmil Trade warehouse

exactly half an hour before the fire

by a detective from National Office of Investigation.

[♪ tense music playing]

I heard you got to the site late on the day of the fires.

Am I right?

- Yes, but… - [Kisoo] What are you trying to say?

Are you trying to say our chief committed arson?

Her phone signal was present because she was there to put out the fire.

Then how was she there before they happened?

Only the culprit knew about the location at that time.

Beeswax

[Anna] Starting candle-making with different components.

Granulated wax, 133.3°F.

Beeswax, 130.3°F.

[Hong] Beeswax has the lowest melting point.

[Anna] Crystal palm wax, 141.3°F.

Low-melting paraffin, 134.1°F.

Mid-melting paraffin, 146.8°F.

Lastly, high-melting paraffin, 157.8°F.

[Hong] High-melting paraffin has the highest melting point

among these candles.

We'll make candles of various thicknesses using different containers.

[Seol] Ms. Yun,

here are the analysis results of the fire accelerant detected in the body.

[Seol] The GC/MS test detected kerosene and gasoline in the blood.

The accelerant must have been a mixture of kerosene and gasoline then.

[Hong] If we experiment with this accelerant,

it could cause a big fire.

We'll need to set fires in order to reconstruct it properly.

I'll get some people to put out the fires.

Pouring the accelerant, a 5:5 mixture of kerosene and gasoline.

[Seol] Preparing the candles.

Soy wax

[♪ thrilling music playing]

[Seol] I'll place the soy wax candles into their respective containers.

Shall we begin?

I'll light them up in order.

[Inju] Raising surrounding temp to recreate the situation

after the first fire.

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

The soy wax candles have failed to complete combustion.

The beeswax candle in the 20 L water bottle

has failed to complete combustion.

[Hong] If the candle melts by radiant heat first,

it won't last an hour.

Or if the container with the accelerant melts first,

[Seol] it won't last, either.

The candle must have a melting point that can withstand the radiant heat,

and the container with the accelerant must also be able to withstand fire.

But the investigation of the warehouse yielded no signs of accelerant containers.

That's why it's difficult.

The container has to hold out until the candle burns completely

but must completely burn away

and not remain as evidence after the explosion.

[Hong] This is the last one.

Only the high-melting paraffin candle in a gas can is left.

[blasts]

[Hong] The high-melting paraffin candle paired with the gas can

align with the criteria.

[hissing]

[thuds]

There would be no trace of it left had it been full of accelerant.

How long did it take?

One hour.

Gas cans that carry military-grade oil

are made of plastic for easy transport,

but they are made of special materials

that are fire-resistant to prevent ignition by oil vapors.

[Hong] It's perfect for setting a delayed fire.

I think I know now.

[♪ thrilling music playing]

[Seol] Dojin would have known as soon as he saw it.

He would have known that candles and flammable materials

were used to control the ignition time.

[♪ somber music playing]

[Dojin groaning]

[Dojin groans]

[Dojin panting]

What is all this?

Military-grade

[firefighter 1] The fire is starting back up!

[firefighter 2] What should we do, sir?

- [chief] Let's go put it out! - [firefighters] Yes, sir!

[firefighter 2] I think we need to go back in.

- [chief] Let's go! - [firefighters] Yes, sir!

[chief] You take the right. You go to the left.

[Dojin] They'll all die if that thing explodes.

I have to put it out.

[♪ ominous music playing]

[Dojin groaning]

[Dojin] I don't have much time.

[Dojin grunts]

[flames bellowing]

[Dojin] I have to grab the evidence

before it all disappears.

[Dojin grunting]

I have to protect the evidence.

[Seol] You could have just come out, Dojin.

Dojin.

No, don't take off your mask.

Don't take it off.

[groans]

[coughs]

[♪ dramatic music playing]

I have to protect the evidence.

[sobbing]

[explosion]

[Seol] If Dojin hadn't extinguished the candles,

it would have exploded on time.

Then there would have been many more casualties.

Dojin ate the candle…

you found in his esophagus.

He left evidence to let us know that the time of the fire was fabricated.

He kept it in the safest place he could,

inside his own body.

It wasn't homicide or an accident.

It was one firefighter's sacrifice to save everyone.

That's the truth behind his death.

[cell phone buzzes]

Hello?

Chief Dokgo Soon?

I lost my phone recently.

A few days later, the crew found it outside the fire station.

[sighs]

I never thought it would have something to do with the serial arsonist.

And why were you at the warehouse exactly 30 minutes before the fire?

I went to pick up an item that someone had left there.

What kind of item?

It belonged to my late mother-in-law.

[Mr. Baek exhales deeply]

[Mr. Baek] Is that right?

But of all places…

My mother-in-law used to live in the area.

She was a native of Taewon.

What do you think you're doing? We're with a suspect.

Chief Dokgo Soon…

is not the arsonist.

- She may be an accomplice. - There's no accomplice.

The simultaneous arsons were done by one person.

[Hong] The answer to the simultaneous fires was in the candle

found inside Officer Bong Dojin.

What do you mean the answer was in the candle?

The combustion time of a candle can control the timing of a fire.

The safest Taewon, respected and beloved Taewon Police

The culprit delayed the fire with candles,

setting up simultaneous fires.

[Pil] He set up a mechanism in the warehouse's southeast corner

for the first ignition

and a delayed ignition device in the far west for the second explosion.

And while the candles were burning,

he leisurely went to the shopping center

and started another fire.

This was how he was able to start simultaneous fires without an accomplice.

So depending on how long the candle can burn,

it's possible to set a fire five or six hours beforehand.

Chief Dokgo, who was in the warehouse 30 minutes before the fire,

has an alibi as well.

Candle found in the body

Let's catch this bastard.

Otherwise,

I don't think I can face Dojin later on.

The NFS is currently running an analysis on the candle.

Each manufacturer makes candles with different core materials,

thermal energy storage, and combustion characteristics.

We'll be able to find the manufacturer if we carefully separate the components.

Understood.

I'll analyze the wick and paraffin separately.

[Hong] It's a special candle used in religious ceremonies.

It's a type of high-melting paraffin wax with the highest melting point,

so not many places manufacture it.

[forensic investigator] We've found the manufacturer.

It's Hyangchun Candle Factory in Yongcheon-ri, Paju.

- All right, let's go. - [Pil] Okay.

[Dojin] Do you like Seol that much?

Can't I like someone who revived my dead heart?

I'm not trying to one-up you, so don't misunderstand.

[♪ soft music playing]

[Seol] Hello, Ms. Anna.

I brought some of Dojin's belongings from the station.

I was wondering if I could get the code to his front door to drop them off.

Sure. I'll send it over text.

[♪ uneasy music playing]

[people murmuring]

[young Dojin] Doha.

Doha, I'm sorry.

[staff] We specialize in large candles,

so we use high-melting paraffin as the main ingredient.

- Up this way, please. - Okay.

Here's a customer who ordered extra-large candles.

It took a long time to make them

since he wanted a specific size.

What was the specified size?

There were two types. One that could burn for five hours

and one that would burn one hour longer, so six hours.

- It's him. Exactly one hour apart. - Do you have his contact information?

I have his shipping address. I have to look for it though.

We're in a hurry, so please find it quickly.

Yes, of course.

It's ten years ago today.

I swear I've seen him before.

Maybe not?

Get the arrest team ready for when we get the address.

I found it.

Here's the address.

Detective, look at this.

- Something's weird about the address. - What?

The address is 38 Muyeong-dong. It's Unit 304 at Dochoon Villa.

Isn't Dochoon Villa the first serial arson location?

[Pil] Yes, it was very hectic with everyone being evacuated.

[people clamoring]

- [kid] Hurry! - [Seol] Are you okay?

[Jihoon] Are you okay?

[coughing]

Hold on a second.

Anna, could you ID someone real quick?

I found it.

I sent you a photo just now.

- Show me the photo. - Okay.

Background check form Yang Sangman

Isn't this the person Seol rescued?

- [Seol] There's a person here! - [Dongwoo] We have a patient here!

[Seol] Are you okay?

[Hogae] It's him.

This bastard is the serial arsonist.

The First Responders Season 2

- What happened? - [associate] We've picked up

the detonator's GPS signal.

[Anna] We have information on the suspected arsonist.

His name is Yang Sangman. Male, 57 years old. Currently unemployed.

[Pil] The serial arsonist's next target has been identified.

We require immediate assistance.

[Seol] No, don't!

The gas can and the device on the door

- are connected to each other. - We're from the EOD.

[Hogae] This is an IED. The bubble inside the cylinder moves

and activates the fuse wire,

which triggers it to explode instantly.

Get everyone out!

There's 1 minute and 30 seconds left.

Yang Sangman!
