(Mouse)

It's upsetting to hear your lack of trust in me.

How about now? Do I seem believable to you?

Don't forget your deadline is when the show ends.

If you can't tell me why he will be dying by then,

he won't ever be able to return to his mother.

(Mouse)

(Episode 5)

The bereaved families have given us permission to reveal...

the victims' names and faces.

(Victims of the Predator)

They made the tough decision...

knowing that tips from the public...

is crucial in finding Han Kook and arresting the killer.

However, in the case of homeless man Mr. Kim,

we are only able to give you a composite sketch...

that was put together based on his bone structure...

and eye-witness statements.

Why did you get soil on your hands again?

Were you in the woods again?

Viewers, any small detail will help.

Please don't hesitate to contact us if you know anything.

(Victims of the Predator)

Detective Ko,

all these cases have a common feature.

That's right. A cross was located...

near the crime scene,

and the victims' middle fingers were found pointing at it.

It's safe to assume...

that the killer loathes the Almighty or at least harbours hatred for him.

Detective, you said that...

This was committed by the guy who recently killed the gym trainer.

I'm definitely sure it was him.

You assumed that the one who killed Song Soo Ho...

also murdered Byun Soon Young.

- It turned out to be true. - That's right.

Song Soo Ho was killed out of revenge.

That triggered the killer in him to rise...

which led to the random killing of the hostess bar employee.

You also predicted these random killings to continue.

That's right.

At first, I was convinced...

that all the 5 victims out of 7 excluding Song Soo Ho...

and the old lady from Gudong in her 70s...

who was probably killed to keep his identity hidden,

were chosen randomly.

But then the killer called you personally.

That's right. There is a standard by which I choose my victims.

He openly admitted to the five killings...

not being random.

Yes. After our call ended,

I went over the cases again with fresh eyes.

Where they lived, their schools,

their workplace, and even their hometowns.

I checked for any links between the victims,

but nothing surfaced.

But then, I got to wonder...

if I was being too focused on the cases.

That's why I looked into the lives of the victims once again.

Mr. Jang wants to enjoy just one glass with you.

Do you know how many buildings he owns?

Don't think too much of it. Just sit next to him,

- and help him have a good time. - I don't want to!

I'd rather starve than do anything my kid will be ashamed of.

Fine. Stay on that righteous horse of yours...

and starve to death if you want.

Why are you doing this when she's clearly against it?

You're not the only one who'll starve to death!

- Your daughter will too! - Get out.

Byun Soon Young was a single mom...

who worked in the kitchen of a hostess bar...

to provide for her daughter after her husband's passing.

Meanwhile, Park Jong Ho was a young man who worked...

day and night at his temporary job.

Hey.

This instant coffee mix that was found at the scene...

wasn't a beverage he enjoyed while he worked.

It was something he had to consume to stay awake.

The killer took what the victims most cherished as trophies.

He must've been aware of what this coffee meant to Park Jong Ho.

(It turns out we're the same age. Poor guy.)

(The killer only targets the unfortunate.)

(Are you kidding me? It's disgusting and cruel.)

(Why haven't the cops arrested him yet?)

(Darn you, Predator. I hope you die.)

(Why bother getting a job, right?)

(I hope you die, monster. Rest in peace. He was so young.)

The only survivor, prison guard Na Chi Kook...

was an upright and generous young man.

According to the people around him,

he wasn't the type to stand injustice.

Back in high school, he even rescued another citizen from a beating.

(An Ant Trying to Dig His Way Up)

Homeless man Mr. Kim, who we've yet to identify,

was well-liked by other homeless people around him too.

He was a quiet man...

who was generous and shared food...

Someone called with a tip and wants to speak to you in person.

He requested his voice to be altered though.

He's worried that the killer would recognize his voice.

- Next up is Jo Mi Jung. - Hello!

- I'm Mi Jung. - She was a petite...

college student who weighed less than 40kg.

Being in a bad financial situation,

she worked as an eating show YouTuber...

to provide for herself and pay her tuition.

As you can see, all the victims...

were socially disadvantaged but good-hearted citizens.

Tips have been pouring in,

so let's hear from this next person.

I hear you have crucial information regarding this case.

It's not about the case.

I have a question to ask Detective Ko.

I'll cut right to the chase.

Detective Ko,

do you think you have the right to be on this show?

If it's not pertinent to this case...

Rumour has it that you...

indulge in illegal gambling and take bribes from criminals.

Is that true?

I don't know where you heard those rumours,

but they're groundless.

Sure, whatever you say.

Then what about you being...

a bereaved family member of a Head Hunter's victim?

Shut off the voice alteration.

- But we promised the caller. - He's raising flags.

I'll take responsibility,

- so shut it off. - I asked you a question.

Is what I said true?

What does that have to do with this case?

- The rumour must be true. - Shut it off!

I have,

but he's already using a device of his own.

You saw the Head Hunter cut off your mom's head.

You must've been traumatized.

- Check the phone number. - And about the killer...

who jumped off a roof recently.

Did he really jump?

Could you have pushed him?

I didn't.

I'm only joking. Of course, you didn't push him.

A police officer wouldn't kill a person, right?

I bet you wanted to push him tens and hundreds of times though.

You're not answering me.

- Silence is a sign of admission. - Is he a crooked cop?

Right? You're doing this show...

so that you can find and kill the killer, right?

The kid's survival is the last thing on your mind. Right?

You're really patient.

I only called to tell you this...

because I'm worried.

You can't contain your emotions at the sight of killers.

so putting on this show to save another's son is...

You're worried? Worry about yourself, you lunatic.

Darn you, you scumbag!

- Cut the call. - Did you just swear at me?

You explode even at the keen advice of a worried citizen,

so how would you face a killer?

You should be calmer than anyone else...

(Unbelievable. Is he crazy? What did I just hear?)

(Did he just make it worse for Han Kook?)

- Are you kidding me? - And he calls himself a cop?

- Unbelievable. - No way.

- This is absurd. - We'll get back to you again.

Detective Ko, why didn't you disclose...

your status as a family member of one of Head Hunter's victims?

I can't believe you swore on camera.

People are hounding us to take you off the air.

They can't trust you. We're told to shut the show down...

since you could've just put Han Kook in more danger.

Our website is exploding with complaints!

How are you going to remedy this? My gosh!

We'll take a short break.

You're right.

25 years ago,

the notorious serial killer known as the Head Hunter...

murdered both my parents.

If I'm given the chance,

I'd love nothing more than to kill him.

That's how I truly feel.

I understand your concerns.

You might think that I'm on this show...

to catch and murder a killer just to get my revenge.

But believe me when I say...

that bringing Han Kook home is the only reason I'm on air.

This is the only way we can ensure his safe return.

Please help us continue with the show.

I'm sorry.

I won't let my emotions get the better of me.

I promise.

("Sherlock Hong Ju")

The delivery is here.

Okay. We just received something we believe the kidnapper sent.

We just checked the video in the USB drive...

that we believe the kidnapper sent.

(Detective Ko, no cursing please!)

Underaged viewers or those faint of heart...

should not be watching.

(Tip hotline)

Do you believe me now?

You have until the show ends.

If you don't tell me by then why this kid must die,

you'll see something you will never forget.

We can't be sure yet if this came from the kidnapper.

Since the child is wearing a mask,

we can't be sure whether this is Han Kook.

Yes, yes, yes.

It's the same mask and clothes he was wearing...

- when he was kidnapped. - Han Kook.

However, this is insufficient to make any conclusions.

So we will ask his mom to confirm.

Is this child in the video...

your son?

It is. It's Han Kook.

Are you sure?

I know my son.

- I was told to deliver this here. - It is my son.

Another delivery came for Detective Ko.

What's going on? What are they doing?

Hey. That's not what I sent.

What? What do you mean?

(8pm, 2 hours before the show)

It's 8pm. The show starts in 2 hours.

It's over.

Let's do the show.

- What? - Let's take a gamble.

We have nothing to lose.

There was a murderer who got angry because the news reported...

that someone else had committed the murder he did.

That's right. They are exhibitionists,

so they can't handle it...

if someone else receives the attention for what they did.

What if we make a fake to anger him?

A fake Han Kook.

(9pm, 1 hour before the show)

What do you think? You can't tell, right?

Wow. With the same clothes and mask, you can't tell the difference.

Dong Koo, not bad.

Where did you find him?

My girlfriend teaches at a children's acting school.

My kid is very good at acting scared.

Advance cash payment please.

You must keep this confidential.

Of course. A child's life is at stake.

Can you do it?

After we air the video, I'll ask you the question.

I just have to say it is my son, right?

That's right.

Let's go. We have only one hour.

Here. Can you do it?

Yes, don't worry.

I'm hurt. You have no faith in me.

Well? Do you believe me now?

He just left.

(Moojin Police Agency)

What is he doing with everyone waiting?

That's not the video that I sent. It's different.

I thought it seemed weird.

(Tip hotline)

The courier. It's him.

(Tip hotline)

Camera three, switch to Hong Ju now.

Where's he going?

- Okay. - What's going on here?

We just checked the video we believe that came...

from the kidnapper.

Detective Ko has stepped away to confirm its authenticity.

We will continue to accept calls with tips.

It wasn't me. I'm just a courier.

Call the company and ask.

Then why did you run away, jerk?

I was scared.

I saw the news after I made the delivery.

I was afraid I'd get dragged into it.

You jerk.

- It's a burner. - What?

You. Where did you pick up the package?

He said it was in a locker at Shimjeon Station.

- Shimjeon Station? - Yes.

May I go now?

After we check on it.

I'll check the surveillance videos.

You should go back. You need to finish the show.

- Are you sure? - I'm fine.

- Go with him. - Okay.

Call me as soon as you check.

- We'll take the next call. - Okay.

- Hello? - Hello.

So... I'm not positive since it's just a sketch,

but that homeless man...

I think it's someone I know.

Really? How do you know him? Please tell us in detail.

I think he donated to the orphanage I work at every year.

A few years ago, he disappeared after something big happened.

He donated his life savings.

Do you have any pictures of him?

I do. I found one. It was taken with our children.

Please send it to us now.

Yes, detective. I just sent it.

Please check it.

The homeless man's identity was confirmed.

The homeless man was identified as Chairman Kim Sung Gyu,

of one the nation's top three transportation companies.

After he lost his family in an accident five years ago,

he donated his life savings to charity...

and disappeared.

He had given and shared all his life...

Wait.

Thanks to your tips,

- we were able to identify... - Send it to me.

the homeless man Kim, whom the authorities could not.

Even a small tip may help catch the killer, so...

(I just saw Han Kook with some man. Call me.)

Someone just submitted a tip that they saw Han Kook.

We'll connect to the caller now.

- You saw Han Kook? - Darn it. Finally.

Why do you keep hanging up on me? How rude.

Why wouldn't you connect me?

You treated me like a drunkard or lunatic.

- Excuse me. - Detective Ko.

Have you calmed down now?

You'll be punished for making...

- prank calls to the show. - This isn't a prank call.

Am I going to get punished for calling to ask a question?

The video of that kid is fake, isn't it?

Because that's what it looks like.

What are you talking about? The culprit sent the video.

It's hard to believe you.

I mean, think about it. Why would the kid...

still be wearing a mask?

It's obviously to hide the fact that he isn't Han Kook.

Okay, fine. I'll prove to you...

that the video was sent to us by the culprit.

We have a CCTV footage that shows someone...

leaving the envelope inside a subway locker.

Take a look.

To prevent himself from getting caught,

the culprit made Han Kook put the envelope in the locker.

Then he used a burner phone to call a parcel man...

and have the item delivered to me.

Do you still think the video is fake?

So it's not fake?

- That's my son! - Ma'am.

- That's my son, Han Kook! - Ma'am, wait.

What are you doing?

- Get her out of there. - Why did you lie to me?

Ma'am, please calm down.

Han Kook!

Ma'am.

Air a commercial.

- Please call 911. - Ma'am.

I didn't think this far. We should've told her beforehand.

Things were too hectic.

What happened?

Thank you for everything. Where's Officer Jung?

He and the police are searching for witnesses near Shimjeon Station.

- Then why are you here? - I'd rather be here...

since I'm going to be the next Alfred Hitchcock.

How could you leave your injured friend and come here?

- Hong Ju. - Hey, Min Jung.

About that victim named Byun Soon Young...

I think we once talked to her daughter on our show.

I think she sent a story to our radio show...

about two months ago.

Is that why Byun Soon Young had that table clock...

with the broadcasting station's name on it?

Yes, we sent it to her as a gift.

Many people were touched by the story her daughter sent us.

(Why are they suddenly airing a commercial?)

The commercial ends in five seconds.

3, 2, 1. Cue.

There was an unexpected incident.

Han Kook's mother got shocked after seeing the CCTV footage...

of her son.

Right now, she's at the hospital...

- getting some rest. - Park Jong Ho...

- Park Jong Ho... - I'm sure the viewers...

- A power blogger. Jo Mi Jung. - were as shocked as she was.

Had an eating show channel.

- We'll do our best to make sure... - Kim Sung Gyu. Owned a small firm.

Han Kook reunites with his mother.

- Na Chi Kook... - Right now,

every little information we receive...

- from our viewers... - Na Chi Kook.

- can be very crucial to us. - It's not him.

This is where I'm lost.

We promise that we will go through...

- every little detail... - I got it.

- to find Han Kook's... - The victims' common feature.

whereabouts.

It's time to confess your feelings.

Tell us what you'd like to say.

Mom, thank you for raising me.

Once I grow up, I'm going to make a lot of money.

Stay healthy so we can live together for a long time. I love you, Mom.

Min Ji's story touched the radio listeners.

And it was an issue for a pretty long while.

Park Jong Ho was a power blogger who went by the nickname "Ant"...

with 50,000 visitors.

His blog was public and was open to everyone.

Jo Mi Jung was an eating show host...

who had 30,000 subscribers.

The homeless man, who turned out to be Chairman Kim Sung Gyu,

donated his entire fortune five years ago,

and it was a big issue on the news at the time.

- Have you seen this kid? - Officer!

- Yes, what's up? - I need to go.

First, the CCTV footage went missing.

And now, people are even trying to open the locker.

- Who? - Hurry up.

All the victims had this one thing in common...

except for Na Chi Kook. But it turns out Director Choi...

can tell us why.

Yes. It was my first interview after I got hired here,

so I still remember it very clearly.

A student got beaten up and was in a critical condition.

The doctor said he could've died...

if he was even just a little bit late.

That student was able to live because a few other students...

saved him from death.

And this person turned out to be one of the students.

I hesitated because I was scared, but my friend went and stopped them.

My friend was the one who was brave.

I really don't deserve this award.

This man is Na Chi Kook, the prison guard.

I interviewed him eight years ago...

when he received the Citizen Hero Award.

And this interview aired...

on the evening news that day.

Doctor, wait.

Do you remember the student who saved you...

back when you were in high school?

Stop! Help!

That was Chi Kook.

So can you please save him?

Please, sir. Please save him.

If he's the Head Hunter's son, that means he's also a psycho.

Don't you think he should get executed too?

Look at those eyes.

They're not the eyes of a human. They're the eyes of a monster.

You're right.

I have a murderer's blood flowing inside me.

So don't mess with me.

Or else, I'll kill you first.

You little jerk.

Today's our chance to become a hero.

No, stop!

Someone! Help!

- Are you okay? - Yes.

What should we do? See if he's dead.

Let's check.

He's still breathing. Call 911.

- Chi Kook, hurry. - Okay. Hello?

I'm calling from...

Do you see it?

Whether it was intended or not,

these victims' private lives were open to the public.

That means the culprit listened to the radio,

went through blogs, watched online video channels,

- and searched through the news... - Look at that.

to pick his targets.

- Ma'am, please calm down. - Why did you lie to me?

People are starting to question why Han Kook's mother asked...

- why she was lied to. - What is that?

After receiving a tip-off saying that the video was actually fake,

we hurriedly tried to check the truth.

We urgently received the footage of Kim Han Kook...

from the documentary show,

"Hope for Children", that was aired a month ago.

Then, we compared it to the video that was sent by the culprit.

Dad. I miss you.

- I love you. - While comparing the two videos,

we noticed something shocking.

If you look at the show that was aired last month,

you can see that Han Kook has...

a burn scar that's about 1cm long.

But in the video that was claimed to have been sent by the culprit,

the scar is no longer there.

That means this kid isn't Han Kook.

Why would the culprit film...

a different child?

That only means the video was filmed by the staff of the show.

We will give the staff at "Sherlock Hong Ju"...

a chance to refute our opinion.

What's going on? Hong Ju!

Did you guys film a fake video?

Are you kidding me?

I'd like to refute. Let me talk to her.

You'd like to refute?

The video we aired was sent to us by the culprit.

But we just checked that the kid isn't Han Kook.

How can we be sure that you didn't fabricate the other video?

So, are you saying...

you didn't film the video that was aired on TV?

That's right. We made it clear that the video was from the culprit.

Camera One. Close up on Detective Ko.

Okay, I understand.

There's someone very important waiting to talk to us right now.

Let's talk to him. Hello?

The kid wearing the mask...

inside that video is my child.

His acting teacher called for help,

and I took him there.

I agreed to keep it confidential...

because I was told that it was to save Han Kook.

But this is just wrong, Detective.

Are you saying you met Detective Ko yourself?

Of course. That lady was there too.

That means Director Choi and Detective Ko...

cast your son themselves...

to shoot this footage. Okay, I understand.

Why did you fool the public...

by creating a fake video...

and rigging the show?

This show isn't rigged!

Detective Ko, you seem very agitated.

I don't think we can continue talking to him.

- Wait. - Thank you for your argument.

Darn it.

- No, wait. Don't hang up. - Air a commercial.

We'll come back after a commercial.

(What? The show was rigged? Now what, "Sherlock Hong Ju"?)

(They must be insane to rig the show like this.)

I'm going to send you two videos.

I want you to compare the documentary footage...

and the footage we aired earlier.

Check if the two kids are the same.

This means the culprit didn't send the video.

Then what's going on with Han Kook?

Professionals on child abduction say...

children are most likely dead 48 hours after being abducted.

Put me on camera after the commercial.

Commercial ends in five seconds.

3, 2, 1. Cue.

Okay, fine. I admit it.

Just like the father said, we filmed a fake video.

(Wait. Is this a comedy show?)

- What? - What?

It's because we believed that the real culprit...

would call us once he saw the fake video.

It was to draw the killer out...

for just in case.

Detective Ko Moo Chi confessed to the video being fake.

However, we didn't play the video we filmed.

Strictly speaking,

the video sent by the killer arrived before the fake one we filmed.

The video we aired was sent to us by the killer.

You filmed a fake video, but you never aired it?

A driver can be drunk but not drunk behind the wheel?

Got it.

It's why we obtained another piece of evidence.

That's right. Please take a look at the screen.

This video of Han Kook...

placing the envelope into the locker is the one aired by OBN.

In the footage we obtained,

you can see the courier taking it out of the locker.

The locker Han Kook placed the envelope in...

is locker number 14.

But the courier took the envelope out of...

locker number 13.

Han Kook placed the envelope in the locker...

at around 9:50pm.

Meanwhile, the courier took the envelope out of the locker...

20 minutes later at 10:10pm.

Were you able to confirm who placed the envelope...

in locker number 13?

As you can see, at 9:40pm, which is 10 minutes before...

Han Kook showed up, lockers number 13...

and 14 were empty.

The subway soon arrived and passengers poured out.

Due to them blocking the view, you can't see what's going on.

Once the passengers clear out,

locker number 13 shows up to be in use.

Then...

was the contents of the envelope...

Han Kook placed in locker number 14 verified?

Unfortunately, the police wouldn't let us take a look,

so we couldn't verify it.

How did the video made by OBN...

and the place the killer had Han Kook put the envelope...

both end up at Shimjeon Station?

In neighbouring lockers, if I may add.

Could we consider this as a coincidence?

To sum it up, the killer must've found out...

that OBN placed a fake video in the locker...

and had Han Kook...

leave an envelope in the locker next to it.

Then the killer could've done this...

just to show that the video played by OBN was a fake.

Could we assume that?

Statistically speaking, provoking a kidnapper...

lowers the chance of the abductee surviving.

I desperately hope that Han Kook is still alive.

We'll be back after the break.

(It's not even funny. But I trusted Detective Ko!)

- Yes, sir. - So the killer...

filmed a fake video...

- and sent it to us? - We'll have to verify that,

but it must be the case.

Why would he do such a thing? Why?

This could've been part of his scenario to begin with.

To make sure I don't finish the show.

But he requested the show himself. Why would he do that?

The TV show itself might not have been his goal.

Adding more drama to our show...

so that he gets more spotlight.

It's either that or...

Or what?

What if he set up this whole thing?

- Speak. - Detective Ko.

I stopped the reporters from opening the locker next to locker number 13.

The envelope had a flash drive in it too.

A flash drive? Check what's in it right away.

(Drive not accessible. The file or directory is corrupted.)

What?

(Drive not accessible. The file or directory is corrupted.)

- Yes? - The file must be corrupted.

Nothing's showing up.

Then, take it to Moojin Police Station.

It's a five-minute drive from there. Get in a cab. Hurry.

Thank you.

Pick up, will you?

This is crazy.

A video is being sent your way.

I need the file recovered as fast as possible.

Good.

Wrap up the show. Boss' orders.

What are you talking about? We still have 15 minutes.

Your fake video has him fuming.

He's absolutely outraged!

Don't argue with me...

and close the show after the commercial break.

Pack everything up and leave only one camera for Hong Ju.

Are you kidding me?

Don't you want to get paid?

Just do as you're told!

I'll stay behind, guys.

We'll get going.

Sir, can you please step on it?

I'm directing the show now.

Detective Ko will host it on its own.

Hong Ju, just wrap up the show.

These antics won't work.

We're almost there. Just give us a few more minutes.

You're making us disobey an order from the boss.

Honey, let's think that this is our Saet Byul in danger.

Let's hold out for her sake.

Darn, whatever.

If I get fired, you'll be providing for me.

Thanks, Ms. Oh.

Thank you.

- Yes? - It's being restored as we speak.

Get it done as fast as possible.

I also sent over the two videos with Han Kook in it.

Check on their status.

He's asking about the videos with Han Kook in it.

Oh, that?

The comparison has just been completed.

Come on. Open this door.

Open this door right now!

Five seconds and you're back on air. Focus, Ko Moo Chi.

("Sherlock Hong Ju")

We were able to confirm...

that the child in the video we aired...

wasn't Han Kook.

However, it doesn't change the fact that it was sent by the killer.

(What a liar.)

(Liar. It's the video you filmed.)

(I bet he's lying about knowing the answer.)

(He's the detective who cried wolf.)

Wait.

The killer filmed a fake video himself...

and had us air it...

to trap us into a situation where we end up...

giving up on the show.

Hurry up and open it.

Darn it.

However, I won't give up...

and see to it that I wrap up this show.

I will bring Han Kook home.

Here. Can you blow this up?

Do you see that?

Cut the nonsense and show yourself.

If you're that confident,

stop playing games and come out.

You know my number, right?

Call me right this instant.

(No wonder he's stalling.)

(We shouldn't give up. Detective, don't give up!)

(Officer Jung Ba Reum)

- I have the card. - There.

- What do you think you're doing? - Sir...

- Do you want to get fired? - We're almost there.

Drag them all out.

- Drag them out! - But sir...

Sir!

I'll kill the kid exactly when the show ends...

with the world watching.

(10 minutes before the end of show, 22:50)

Viewers,

what does this look like to you?

I can't be absolutely sure due to the level of decay,

but it seems to be an insect.

I have entomologist Mr. Lee on the line.

Mr. Lee, can you tell us what this is?

Please take a good look at it.

Is it a grasshopper?

A grasshopper has long wings, so I doubt it.

Would it be a yeochi, then?

Yeochi has wings of similar length...

but bumps along the body.

That one doesn't seem to have any...

By any chance,

could it be a katydid?

Yes, I see thorns.

The light brown line that frames it...

says it's a black-rimmed katydid.

Thank you.

That's right. This is a katydid.

It was found in Park Jong Ho's throat.

The killer shoved it in there postmortem.

What does a katydid remind you of?

The fable "The Ant and the Grasshopper", right?

The death of all five victims...

are connected to children's stories.

Detective, I see something reflected on the mask Han Kook is wearing.

It's... It's a wall.

I think I see photos and newspaper articles,

but I can't be sure.

There's also a drawing. Wait, is it a cartoon?

No, it isn't.

I'll send you a blown-up version of the screenshot.

What is that?

Hold on.

Okay.

Hello, sir. Was Byun Soon Young wearing a hat...

when she left work?

She was?

Do you remember what colour it was?

Are you sure?

I got it.

The reason Na Chi Kook was stripped.

The hat Byun Soon Young wore when she left work was burgundy.

However, she was wearing a red hat when her body was found.

Na Chi Kook was found naked...

unlike the other victims.

I was sure the attacker removed the clothes...

because his DNA was on it.

However, there was no DNA from the start.

That is not all. The homeless man Kim,

who we now know was Chairman Kim Sung Gyu,

was found with an axe, the murder weapon.

He went out of his way to move Jo Mi Jung...

10km away from her home to the greenhouse.

Why was that?

Listen. You're watching, right?

I'll explain exactly why you chose those people.

Byun Soon Young. "Little Red Riding Hood".

Park Jong Ho. "The Ant and the Grasshopper".

Na Chi Kook. "The Emperor's New Clothes".

Kim Sung Gyu. "The Honest Woodcutter".

Jo Mi Jung. "The Fox and the Grapes".

You killed people to act out fairytales.

(Restricted Number)

(Restricted Number)

- Bingo. - We got a call.

- Trace it. - Yes, sir.

You're smarter than I expected. You actually figured it out.

I'm glad you called.

What took you so long?

It's boring talking by myself.

It was frustrating,

but I'm glad to see you're getting closer to the answer.

I thought I should compliment you.

I thought you were putting on an act without knowing anything.

Hong Ju.

If you knew the answer, you should've told us.

First tell me if Han Kook's safe.

He's doing very well.

Okay, then. Tell me the answer that you figured out.

I discovered something shocking from the endings of these stories.

Every story has a lesson.

"The Ant and the Grasshopper" is about the grasshopper's laziness.

"The Honest Woodcutter" is about the greedy woodcutter...

who tried to take axes of all kinds.

In "The Fox and the Grapes", it warns of gluttony.

Okay. And "Little Red Riding Hood"?

The wolf's disgusting desire.

A warning about lust.

Then what about "The Emperor's New Clothes"?

It mocked the emperor's pride for not realizing he was naked...

because he was drunk on power.

Interesting. So? What's your conclusion?

"Little Red Riding Hood", lust. "Ant and the Grasshopper", sloth.

"The Emperor's New Clothes", pride. "The Honest Woodcutter", greed.

"The Fox and the Grapes", gluttony.

They're the seven deadly sins in Dante's "Purgatory", you jerk.

We got him.

Sounds interesting.

But did those people that I killed...

commit those sins? No, they didn't.

So why did I kill them?

You killed them because you...

We just traced the call. Buy us some time.

You know...

that my parents were murdered by the Head Hunter, right?

That's why I know a lot about psychopaths.

I studied them a lot.

Those jerks are meticulous.

But you? You are not.

You left trails all over the place.

Guess where you left a trail.

I'll give you a hint.

It happened about two weeks ago.

Detective Ko.

Are you stalling so that you can trace this call?

Or are you babbling because you don't know the answer?

The deadline is drawing near.

Hurry if you want to save the kid.

Hey, you jerk! I'm not done!

We lost him.

You jerk! You hung up because I got you.

That's right. The woman who just came to mind.

The woman you let go two weeks ago.

I figured out why Na Chi Kook was naked.

You need to take this call. I think it's an important tip.

Hello? What is the tip?

I'm not positive,

but I feel like it's him.

Him? The killer?

I was working at a supermarket.

It was about two weeks ago.

I was working alone late one night.

Someone suddenly held a knife...

- to my neck. - Please don't kill me.

He told me to eat everything there.

He said he'd kill me if I didn't.

So I shoved the food into my mouth...

and kept swallowing.

Then...

I looked behind me, and...

he was gone.

Why didn't you report it?

I was too scared.

How much do you weigh?

About... 38kg.

Do you do social media?

No, I don't.

Have you ever been on TV or in front of people?

I'm an aspiring model,

so I was in fashion magazines a few times.

Magazines?

Hey. What was found...

in Jo Mi Jung's stomach?

Hold on.

Her stomach was empty.

There was a little bit of food in the esophagus though.

In the esophagus?

He killed her because she couldn't eat.

She threw up.

This drug was found in the college girl's drawer.

It's something people with bulimia eat.

5 packs of noodles, 1 pan of tteokbokki,

and 2 chickens.

Goodbye.

She ate on her eating show,

but she threw up everything she ate for fear of gaining weight.

She was bulimic.

Gluttony? She did not have that.

That was the reason.

Why did you kill them?

I don't know why, but you have a major grudge against the deity.

You killed people and broke their fingers to point to a cross.

You? You've decided to do the opposite...

of what the deity instructs.

That's why you considered those who didn't commit the deadly sins...

to be sinners.

The one without lust. The one without sloth.

The one without pride. The one without greed.

The one without gluttony. The one without envy!

The one without wrath!

Those are the sins that you defined!

And that's why you punished them as you saw fit!

We have a call.

- Hang up on me again, and... - Bingo.

You really are smart, Detective Ko.

This is why I'm your fan.

Buy time. Drag it out for as long as you can.

Byun Soon Young. She never fell to any temptation...

and lived for her daughter. That's why you killed her.

Because she lacked lust.

Foolish wench.

She was pretty enough. What's wrong with using her body a little?

You murdered Park Jong Ho for working hard,

and stuffed a grasshopper down his throat, you psycho?

He wouldn't have died if he had been slightly lazy.

What's the use in working so hard?

He died without saying a peep like an ant under my foot.

But he did resist hard until the very last moment,

so it was very fun.

- What? You jerk. - Don't get worked up.

Buy some more time. Just a little more.

So? Jo Mi Jung?

She stuffed her face then threw up after the show.

But she acted like she just doesn't gain weight.

As for Na Chi Kook,

when I saw him acting all modest in his interview,

I wanted to kill him quickly and free him of his sin.

But... That poor old granny...

Why did you kill her?

Why did you kill that granny, you scumbag?

Oh, that. She was just unlucky.

Do you think I would've enjoyed killing an old woman like her?

They need to resist and fight back for it to be fun.

It was really lame.

Are you kidding me right now?

Didn't you think about her family?

You're an inhumane monster.

We got him!

Good. Move out now!

They located him.

Just a bit more. Keep talking to him a bit longer.

We have him. Building number 123, Seongu-dong.

Gosh, we finally found him.

That's not what I asked.

Time is ticking.

Why do you think the kid will die?

We found this piece of bread where Han Kook went missing.

You probably used this to lure Han Kook.

But he failed to come back home...

even though the birds never ate this bread.

"Birds"? Interesting.

That's right. You wanted to use "Hansel and Gretel"...

to prove something again regarding one of the deadly sins.

Then tell me. What did the kid do wrong?

We're almost there.

There are only two deadly sins left.

Envy and wrath.

Turn on the VCR.

Don't you hate your dad for leaving you?

No. I don't hate him.

I'm sure he had a reason.

Your dad may be watching,

so do you want to say something to him?

Dad. I miss you.

I love you.

You saw this show.

And?

At the end of "Hansel and Gretel",

the kids kill the witch by boiling her inside a cauldron.

They were furious with anger.

They were enraged.

You thought Han Kook should be mad at his father for abandoning him.

You thought he should be angry.

We're here.

But you're trying to kill an innocent kid...

for an absurd reason.

There you go. There's your answer.

Now cut the nonsense, and let the kid go.

The culprit is inside.

He's on the phone while watching the show.

Let him stay focused on the show so he doesn't get distracted.

I bet you think you're some kind of a deity.

Good. Keep stalling.

You chose people who didn't commit the seven deadly sins...

and punished them in your own way.

It's as if you think of yourself as the Almighty.

But I'm sorry to tell you...

that you're no deity, and you're not even human.

You're just a horrible monster.

A monster that can never be saved.

You piece of trash.

I pity you.

Was it the Head Hunter again?

Did this person also get beheaded?

The public has lost trust in the police...

for being unable to catch the Head Hunter...

for almost about a year now.

Why is he still not caught?

Is it because he's too smart for the police to catch?

"Smart"?

That scumbag?

He's nothing but a monster...

that never should've been born.

You piece of trash.

No...

Honey...

Okay then.

I gave you what you asked.

Now, keep your promise.

There's a child inside. Be careful.

Make sure the kid doesn't get hurt.

I want the culprit alive.

Freeze!

Freeze! On your knees!

- Freeze! - You punk!

We have him.

It's over now, you scumbag.

No, you're wrong.

What?

Honey, what's going on? What just happened?

- What's going on? - What's wrong with you people?

The deadline is drawing near.

Hurry if you want to save the kid.

- Detective Ko, calm down. - The answer was "wrath".

I got it right. Where's the kid?

We finally restored the USB from Shimjeon Station.

Where is the kid, you jerk?

Show yourself right now.

Hello?

Air the VCR.

Air the VCR!

Have you lost your mind? No way!

Air it right now if you don't want to get fired.

You crazy little...

- Who do you think you are? - Sir.

Take her out of here!

Let me go! Let go!

Where's the kid?

Look.

He's the one who should've gotten angry, not Han Kook.

He's guilty for having no wrath.

Moo Won.

- Turn it off, you lunatic! - Close-up on Detective Ko.

Father... Father Ko.

I promised to kill him if you failed to find the answer.

It's time.

- Moo Won. - It's absurd.

His parents were killed by the Head Hunter.

He even ended up disabled because of him.

But he forgave him.

What an unbelievable brat.

It was natural that I was pent up with anger.

That anger was probably what motivated me...

to stay alive until now.

But the moment I chose to forgive him,

everything changed.

I decided to live a better life for the sake of my little brother.

The day I came home after telling Han Seo Joon that I forgive him,

I slept like a baby.

I had never slept so well...

ever since that incident.

Moo Won!

You darn jerk!

I'll kill you if you mess with my brother!

- You scumbag! - Why is wrath considered a sin?

It's a sin not to get angry.

It's not too late to get angry at the Head Hunter.

Show me how angry you are at him.

Then you will be forgiven.

Go on. Get angry.

Do it.

Moo Won, just do it.

Cuss out that jerk. Please.

He killed our parents.

I know you want to kill Han Seo Joon. So please.

Moo Chi.

Then get angry at me.

Get angry at me.

You're like that because of me.

You never would've gotten caught...

if I stayed quiet inside that camping car.

You were getting beaten up by him,

but all I did was watch.

Moo Won, you're like that because of me.

I'm sorry. It's my fault.

You forgave him because of me.

So please get angry at me.

I'm begging you.

Moo Chi, I never once...

resented you.

No, please. Just resent me.

Please just resent me.

I don't want you to destroy yourself.

Don't ruin your life just to get revenge.

I don't want to see that.

I'm sorry!

Please let my brother go.

It's all my bad.

My goodness.

I can't believe this.

What's he going to do?

I'm sorry for everything.

I was a fool to have challenged you.

- I'm sorry. - Yes.

Okay, thank you.

Taxi!

Sir, Yirye-dong Cathedral, please. Hurry.

Kill me instead. Take my life.

I'll die in his place.

Let me die in his place.

Let my poor brother live.

Please don't kill my brother.

Moo Chi, I'm all right.

Whatever happens to me isn't your fault.

- All right? - This is your last chance.

Get angry. Show your wrath.

To the Head Hunter who murdered your family.

To the world who didn't give him the death penalty.

Let your anger explode.

Moo Won, please.

My beloved little brother.

I've...

I've always been sorry.

Moo Won, please. Moo Won.

I'm sorry.

No!

I bet you think you're some kind of a deity.

I've come across people like you before.

You chose people who didn't commit the seven deadly sins...

and punished them in your own way.

It's as if you think of yourself as the Almighty.

But I'm sorry to tell you...

that you're no deity, and you're not even human.

You're just a horrible monster.

A monster that can never be saved.

(I am...)

(I am the Almighty.)

(I am the Almighty.)

(Mouse)

He knew that we were filming a fake video...

and filmed one of his own.

How could he have known that?

Could we really have been bugged?

You were the last person...

to talk to Kim Joon Sung before his passing.

Are you all right?

Someone came by on the day Na Chi Kook was hurt.

Who was it?

Did you catch the guy?

Did you see his face?

Bong Yi's grandmother's DNA was found at his house?

(Mouse)

(This drama is purely fictional and is not associated with...)

(actual people, organizations, locations, or incidents.)

(Filming was in compliance with COVID-19 guidelines...)

(and counseling was provided for child actors.)

(CGI was used in most scenes that include animals.)

May...

May the Lord...

save...

your soul.

How...

do I look?

I asked not to be turned into a monster.

I begged.

But you ignored my prayer.

And you call yourself a deity?

From this moment on, that job will be mine.

I will judge all the fools...

who believe in your nonsense.

(I am the Almighty.)

(Mouse)

(Episode 6)

Father?

Let me go!

Over here!

They're bringing someone out.

- Isn't that a woman? - Yes, it's a woman.

(Emergency)

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Mint.

Excuse me.

That punk knew we'd run over to Yirye-dong Cathedral.

(I am the Almighty.)

From what I can tell, you're not dealing with a human being.

He's a monster.

You may lose what you cherish the most!

What I cherish the most?

(I am the Almighty.)

I lost that already when I was eight.

You witnessed that.

I have nothing more to lose.

Moo Won. Moo Won.

- Moo Won. Moo Won. - Moo Chi.

Hey, let go of him.

Let go.

Come on. Let go.

Moo Won.

Come on.

Moo Chi.

We just received a video from the culprit.

This three-minute long video...

was a video of Kim Han Kook.

After an urgent meeting,

we decided to open this video to the public.

"When the farmer only gave delicious foods to the donkey,"

"the goat started to get jealous."

He took your place.

How do you feel? Do you hate him?

Do you want him gone?

Tell me.

Tell me you're jealous of him.

You didn't give me an answer, so I brought him here.

How do you feel now that he's right in front of you?

If you lie, that makes you a bad kid.

Just tell me you want him gone, and I'll do that for you.

I'm not jealous of him.

So send him back home.

Those who don't envy or get jealous are sinners.

Mister.

I pity you.

"So the goat came up with a plan to make the farmer..."

"hate the donkey."

"The goat whispered to the donkey."

"Aren't you exhausted from all the hard work?"

"Pretend like you're sick and collapse."

"Then you'll be able to get some good rest."

"The donkey did what the goat said and pretended to collapse..."

"and ended up with bruises all over his body."

We found this piece of bread where Han Kook went missing.

"Hansel and Gretel".

They get angry at the witch for eating children.

He thinks Han Kook should get angry at his dad for not looking for him.

It's anger.

"The farmer got worried and asked the vet how to cure the donkey."

"And this is what he said."

"Boil the goat's lung and give it to the donkey."

"Then the donkey will become healthy again."

Goat Man, it's time to decide.

If you want to live, you must kill that donkey.

("The Donkey and Goat")

If you don't kill the donkey, the goat will end up dying instead.

The reason the kidnapper wants to kill Han Kook...

is because he didn't get envious or jealous of the other kid...

like the goat did in the fairy tale, "The Donkey and Goat".

Meanwhile, based on what we checked,

the little kid that was kidnapped along with Han Kook...

was able to safely return home.

Professionals are careful to predict...

that it's highly unlikely that Han Kook...

might still be alive.

Where's Detective Ko?

They forced him to take a sedative injection...

and barely managed to bring him here.

Now it's time for us to say goodbye...

to Father Marcellino.

My dear citizens.

I stand before you today with a miserable heart.

The murder of an innocent soul was aired live...

to the entire public.

I'm sure many of you still feel shocked...

and find it hard to forget the dreadful scene.

And I sincerely apologize to you for that.

We will make sure no more innocent lives get killed...

by fully mobilizing our investigative power.

And we will do our best to catch the culprit as fast as possible.

The police just found a body, and they think it's Daniel Lee.

Once again, I'd like to sincerely apologize...

- Are they certain? - Not yet.

The body was under water for long, so it's severely decayed.

In order to prevent this miserable incident from happening again...

and to make sure every single citizen in this country...

is given the chance to live in a world with no crimes,

I promise that we will come up with a plan...

to prevent future violent crimes.

May the souls of the faithful departed...

through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

Amen.

(Ko Moo Won)

Detective.

Open the door. You've been in there for days.

You'll starve to death.

Please open the door.

Please, Detective Ko.

Will you at least let me in?

Hello?

Oh, she's up?

The cornea wasn't damaged,

and nothing hit the nerves in your hand, so you'll be fine.

Did he...

get caught?

No.

Did you...

see his face?

I was so dumb.

I should've checked his face first.

If you did, he would've killed you.

Wait. Doctor.

By any chance,

have we met before?

Bong Yi.

Bong Yi, are you okay?

Yes.

How could you be fearless and go there all alone?

He killed my grandma.

So you went there alone?

Did you think you could fight against a murderer...

just because you learned martial arts?

- What were you thinking? - Then what?

Was I supposed to stay home and watch him kill Father Ko?

Was I just supposed to sit back and watch?

If your grandmother saw you like this...

How's Detective Ko?

How is he handling it?

How do you know him?

Kid, are you okay?

Hello.

That was close.

We were all headed to Yirye-dong.

How did you know to go to Gudong Cathedral?

Sir, Yirye-dong Cathedral, please. Hurry.

I headed to Yirye-dong Cathedral too.

Grandma. I'm on my way to kill the jerk.

But it was the same candlestick as the one in Grandma's photo.

It was the candlestick from Gudong Cathedral.

Wait. Please take me to Gudong Cathedral. Hurry.

You should've called it in first.

I did.

But they said every cathedral has the same candlestick.

But you saved your life by calling it in.

Well... Did you see anything?

It was too dark.

And the wax got in my eyes.

So you didn't see anything?

But...

he was very strong.

And? Do you remember anything else?

Anything.

He wasn't a lefty.

Wait. He wasn't a lefty?

But... He was a lefty when he attacked me.

Even the knife on the roof of the church...

was definitely by a lefty.

No. He wasn't a lefty. He was definitely a righty.

Do you remember anything else?

So...

I'll think about it some more.

Okay. Call us if you remember anything.

Have a nice day.

I'll go see Chi Kook since I'm here anyway.

The person you have reached is unavailable.

Yo Han. I was in Moojin for something...

and came to see you, but you're not picking up.

That must hurt.

How could he do this to a kid's face?

No,

it doesn't hurt.

I promised your grandma.

What?

She asked that...

if she isn't around, to check in on you...

now and then.

And I promised I would.

So if anything were to happen to you,

I wouldn't be able to face her.

Go to sleep.

I'll go bring you some things you may need.

Wait.

I think I cut his arm with my knife.

You did?

Which is it? Did you cut him or you think you did?

Well...

When he was grabbing my head...

I swung my arm holding the knife.

And I felt something.

Where? Which side?

Well... So...

Left side. I think it was his left arm.

- His left arm. - Yes.

Okay. I'll tell Detective Kang.

- Get some rest. - Okay.

His left arm...

Die. Die.

Monsters like you need to die. You monster.

I should've killed him then.

I should've...

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

Who was that?

I don't know. She must not be well.

- We'll be late. Let's go. - Okay.

The fake Han Kook was Han Kook's half-brother?

- Yes. - Have you met him?

Yes, but he didn't see anything.

He was playing in front of his house and someone covered his mouth.

And when he woke up, he was in front of his house.

Didn't he leave anything with Father Ko?

He always left something with the other victims.

Come with me.

Did Detective Ko see this?

He was out of his mind at the time.

I don't know how to tell him about this.

I didn't know at first either.

But Father...

wasn't physically well, so...

Detective Ko is still the same, right?

I'm scared that he'll die at that rate.

- Move. - What is it?

- Darn it. - Hey.

- Dong Koo. - Hush.

- Dong Koo. - Hush.

I was taking a dump, and it came to me.

That jerk knew we were making a fake video...

and filmed on himself.

How did he know?

Based on my gut instinct,

- he bugged us. - He bugged us?

Yes.

No. The bug wouldn't still be here.

You were never home to take care of Bong Yi,

so he would've taken it already.

But how would that murderer know where we live?

It'll be easy to find if he tailed Detective Ko...

or Ms. Choi.

You're right.

Hey. Did you go around blabbing it to others?

Come on. What do you take me for?

Wait.

Ms. Choi.

It wasn't one of us.

Think about it. We decided to do the show...

and filmed the fake video a couple of hours before.

We had no time to meet or talk to anyone.

Maybe he really did bug us.

The whereabouts of Kim Han Kook, who was kidnapped...

from an amusement park in Moojin 11 days ago is still unknown.

Based on the video from the kidnapper,

the police are focusing...

their search near Shimjeon Station and his biological father's home,

but they have made no progress.

He hasn't touched any of it.

If he keeps drinking on an empty stomach,

he may die from acute alcohol intoxication.

We have to get him to eat somehow.

What should I make?

You're so devoted.

Cooking for someone who has no will to live won't make him eat.

Still, I have to make him eat at least a little bit.

What is this?

- This is it. - What?

Hey. This is great.

We still have it.

Detective Ko.

When we were at my place to prepare for the show,

you enjoyed the japchae and other dishes.

I wasn't the one who made those.

It was...

Father Ko.

I didn't want you to reject them,

so I lied.

I asked Father Ko why he made so much,

and he said japchae's your favorite dish,

so I should keep some in the fridge.

He also mentioned how you hate carrots,

so he left them out.

I brought over the last batch of japchae.

Eat it or throw it away. The choice is yours.

Father Ko won't want to see you...

be this way.

Breaking news. The kidnapper revealed another video of Han Kook.

This is how it ends for the Goatman.

Detective Ko, what are you up to?

Are you going to give up on Han Kook?

If you don't find me in three days,

the entire nation will see Han Kook's body sans his lungs.

You have until midnight, three days from today.

Han Kook. Han Kook!

(Detective Ko Moo Chi again?)

Once again, the killer has called Detective Ko Moo Chi to the stage.

Whether Detective Ko is able to move on from...

his brother's shocking death to save Han Kook remains to be seen.

Slow down, will you? You'll get indigestion.

Moo Won?

It's a bit bland, isn't it?

No matter how hard I try, it never turns out as good as Mom's.

Moo Won, I'm sorry.

It's my fault.

This is all because of me.

It's not your fault.

Not then, and also not now.

None of this is your fault.

What do you think you're doing?

What does it look like? I'm retrieving my badge and gun.

As if. You resigned, remember?

It wasn't accepted though.

There wasn't any time for that.

- But that... - Tell me when it's accepted,

- and I'll turn in my gun. - Hold on, you jerk.

I didn't become a cop to cover for you, you know.

Wait. I don't think they make this model anymore.

It's been maintained well though.

You must love cars.

You're the last person...

Kim Joon Sung talked to on the phone...

before passing.

You've been calling each other at least once a day,

so why haven't you for the past week?

The last time we talked,

Joon Sung said he'd be going on a vacation abroad,

so I figured he had left the country.

The only alibi you had...

regarding Daniel Lee's disappearance was murdered.

- I said I was home that day. - Let me get this straight.

You were home when Dr. Lee disappeared...

and when your alibi Mr. Kim was murdered.

What a homebody you are.

Right. I love to stay at home.

Where did the granny obtain this photo?

(Moojin Police Station)

(Evidence Log)

Her backpack isn't here.

(Transportation)

Seriously?

Tell me about it. It's not like I can report...

- the theft of yogurts. - Excuse me. I...

Welcome.

Who do you think you are to open our fridge?

Let me see your CCTV footage.

Oh, right. So the granny you asked about...

came by looking for work.

But I sent her away.

No one would hire...

an old lady like her as a housekeeper.

Why didn't you tell me that day?

Why did you lie about seeing her?

Well... When I came back from the restroom,

she was gone. That's the truth.

What time was it?

The time?

When did the granny come by here?

Check the phone number I texted for any calls that came in...

around 4:10 and 4:20pm that day.

Hurry!

(Happy Reform, Happy Citizens)

Office Jung,

what brings you by?

Nice. It's like getting fast-track access.

What brings you here though?

There's an album Chi Kook listens to often,

but it's not at his house. I was wondering if it was here.

Oh, that. I know that one.

He'd listen to it on his breaks. The jazz album.

- Do you know it? - Yes.

Why are you looking for it though?

To play it for him.

What?

It belonged to his deceased father, you see.

The artist was his dad's favorite,

and he recorded the songs himself when he played in Korea.

That song...

used to wake him up even in the middle of his sleep.

So we're hoping it might work.

(Moojin University Hospital, Emergency Medical Center)

Thank you.

You seem familiar.

Oh, really?

It's easy to find people who look like me.

You know the housekeeping office near Gudong Station, right?

Last Friday, on the 15th,

you called that place between 4:10pm to 4:20pm.

Yes, I needed a housekeeper.

But this is Gangcheon.

Why did you call an agency in Moojin City?

Who did you talk to?

It was an old lady.

Did she come here?

No.

They normally send the same lady,

but that day...

I'm sorry. I forgot to feed my dog.

She needs to eat.

I swear I've seen her before.

(Ko Moo Chi)

(Sung Ji Eun, 1,200 dollars deposited)

She's Han Seo Joon's wife.

I guess she's been wiring me money every month.

Han Seo Joon.

I found your son.

Did you get an official document from Moojin Police Station?

Yes, just a second.

(Family relation certificate)

She changed her name.

That's why I wasn't able to find them.

(Sung Jin Ah, Sung Yo Han)

"Sung Yo Han"?

Nepo, it's me.

Are you okay?

I was worried because you didn't answer my calls.

Hey.

Did you check Sung Yo Han's family members?

There's something more urgent. Kim Joon Sung got killed.

You know, Sung Yo Han's friend.

What?

He searched the entire house.

Oh, here.

He was severely abused too.

It was as if he was tortured.

Did you meet Sung Yo Han?

Yes. Apparently, he didn't call Kim Joon Sung for a week...

because he thought he went on a trip.

The day after the murder, we found his plane ticket to Switzerland...

and luggage bag.

But I personally think...

he waited for Kim Joon Sung to try and flee abroad...

until he finally killed him.

Estimated time of death.

8:10pm on the 28th.

Wait a minute. That's when...

That's when I had the press conference.

It's when he called me.

We've investigated thoroughly.

There was not a single connection between the victims.

Are the victims...

Sir, Sung Yo Han only has a mother.

She owns a flower shop in Gangcheon. Her name is...

Sung Jin Ah.

How did you know?

You like being on TV, right?

What show was it when you yapped about it being random?

Figure out why I'll be killing the kid and announce it there.

Don't go on air drunk this time. Take this seriously.

A person's life is at stake.

Figure out why I'll be killing the kid and announce it there.

If you don't get the answer right, I'll kill the kid...

exactly when the show ends with the world watching.

Han Seo Joon.

He killed my parents.

But as if that wasn't enough, his son...

even ended up killing my brother?

You just wait.

I will kill you first, go to prison,

and kill your dad next.

If none of the visitors are the suspects,

that means it's someone inside the prison.

That's nonsense.

Exactly.

No one would do something so reckless at their own workplace.

First, I should meet Na Chi Kook's colleagues.

Sure. Come this way.

- Ms. Choi. - Officer Jung, why are you here?

I came to take something that belongs to Chi Kook.

- I see. - Are you here for an interview?

Yes, there were no suspects among the visitors.

So I'm going to meet the guards who work here.

I see.

But what about people who didn't write their names down?

You can't enter the place if you don't leave a record.

What? We didn't write our names, but we got in anyway.

We didn't bring our ID cards, so Mr. Kim gave us a ride in.

That's because my car's registered here.

So people who came here riding an employee's car...

might not have left their names on the list?

We do check people's IDs one more time in the reception room.

But if they use the entrance for employees,

their names could not be on the list.

Then let's check the list one more time.

That's weird.

I'm sure someone came to the medical office that day.

Who?

That day, when Officer Na got hurt...

Officer Na is severely injured. Please come to the assembly hall.

Oh, okay, I'll be right there.

I think someone got hurt. I'll see you later.

I should go too. It's almost time for work.

I'm sure I saw someone that day.

Where's the doctor?

("Moojin Prison Finds Out They Accepted an HIV Patient')

("All Prisoners Will Be Obligated To Take Blood Tests")

Guard!

I... I can't breathe.

I quit doing this ages ago.

I can't believe a detective is making a diligent man do this.

You told me not to do this again when you had me locked up.

We're doing this to save someone's life.

- Is it done? - Yes.

Thanks. You can go now.

It looks like a zipper.

It was in the car.

Here.

You went in, didn't you?

- Where? - You got this...

from in there and threw it out here...

and then reported it to me.

- I did not. - Yes, you did.

Sung Yo Han isn't an idiot.

You're saying he threw away conclusive evidence out like this?

If you took it without a warrant, it can't be used as evidence.

From a psychological perspective...

I didn't bring it out, you jerk.

Shut it and request a search warrant.

Moo Chi. If we...

You jerk. What if Han Kook is in there?

What if we find him after he dies?

We don't have time. We have one day left.

Fine.

Whatever.

Some criminals are stupid.

Those that throw away conclusive evidence like this.

He must've wanted to get caught.

Nepo. No. Detective Shin. Thanks.

I'll vote for your dad when he runs for office.

Thanks so much.

Anyway, if it is confirmed this is Dr. Daniel Lee's blood,

we should get a warrant.

Okay.

You seem to be okay.

Do you know Sung Yo Han?

Pardon? How do you know Yo Han?

Was he here that day?

The day the new guard was attacked.

How did you...

Doctor.

I'm sorry to interrupt you, but someone wants to see you.

Okay.

I'll be right back.

Ji Eun.

You little witch.

Someone was here the day Na Chi Kook was attacked, right?

Yes. A college friend was here.

He insisted on coming here to talk to me, so I agreed.

But he forgot his ID,

so I picked him up outside and brought him in my car.

Why didn't you tell the police?

I had forgotten.

But it's not like Yo Han did it.

Who?

His name is Sung Yo Han.

Sung... Sung Yo Han. Sung Yo Han...

Sung Yo Han. Isn't that the doctor who operated on Chi Kook?

Yes, I heard he did.

I'm scared.

I'm scared.

Detective Kang, the day Chi Kook was attacked,

there was a visitor who wasn't in the visitors' log.

Detective Shin. What's the word on the search warrant?

What? Not yet?

Darn it.

Okay.

Why is Ms. Choi here?

A bug?

The bug wouldn't still be here.

You were never home, so he would've taken it already.

He must've thrown it out.

When did you come?

It was him.

Sung Yo Han.

What will you do if you find him?

Will you harass him in Han Seo Joon's place?

Must you find the son too?

What did the son do wrong?

She knew who he was.

Is something wrong? You didn't say you were coming.

I just wanted to see you.

Let's go down.

Okay.

(Human Genetic Testing Laboratory)

- Drink this. - Thanks.

- Are you free tomorrow night? - What?

Well... I'm free.

What's up?

I'll tell you everything tomorrow.

Everything?

Okay.

Excuse me.

Detective Ko, are you okay?

- I'm a little busy... - We just got a search warrant.

A search warrant?

- Who's the suspect? - We're heading over in 30 minutes.

Come quickly if you want an exclusive.

I have to go.

I'm sorry. I just got my license...

It's fine. Just go.

Come now.

I was reported for a hit-and-run after being told to go before.

Wait here. I called the police, so they'll be here soon.

I said it was fine.

You're here.

- Hi. - I didn't keep my eyes forward...

and ended up bumping into him.

I'm fine. Can I go now?

- I'm in a hurry, you see. - Right.

Officer,

I heard something coming from the passenger seat.

It sounded like a kid moaning.

- A kid? - I think you should check it out...

- considering the circumstances. - Right.

What's that over there?

I'm on my way to offer my medical service.

It contains extra clothes and medical supplies.

Can you open it for us?

Why are you making me open my suitcase...

when you're here to sort out a traffic accident?

As you know, the whole nation is on alert because of this killer.

- We'd like you to cooperate. - I won't.

Refuse and you'll have to come with us to the station.

She knew who Sung Yo Han was.

Why weren't you picking up?

Sorry about that. My phone died.

- And the warrant? - It was denied.

Denied? Why?

The blood on the shoes doesn't match Dr. Lee's.

It's not Daniel Lee's blood?

No. It doesn't match any of the victims either.

Whose blood is it then?

We're running out of time.

Let's go in there and get Han Kook out.

No. We can't.

What if I'm wrong again and Han Kook isn't there?

My reckless actions cost me my brother's life.

If my hasty actions lead him to be aware of the fact that I know,

he might kill Han Kook before the deadline.

Also, what if we don't save Han Kook...

and he gets rid of all the evidence?

Even if we arrest him, he'll weasel his way out in the end.

Then what do we do?

The warrant's been denied, so we have no cards left to play.

We only have until midnight...

Since we can't go in,

we'll make him bring the child out.

What?

Ms. Choi,

we just got a search warrant.

We're heading over in 30 minutes.

Come quickly if you want an exclusive.

What are you talking about?

You.

Your girlfriend lives around here, right?

Ask her if we can borrow her car. We'll cause a fender bender.

Open it right now.

Once Han Kook is safe, you'll die in my hands.

Han Seo Joon,

I'll kill your son...

and come for you next.

- Yes? - Han Kook isn't there.

He's not there.

What? He's not?

Are we good here?

I'm a little busy, so may I get going?

Come to think of it, I think it came from the trunk.

Please open your truck.

We'd appreciate your cooperation.

Are we good?

What happened?

We're running out of time!

You. Follow that car.

Be on his tail!

(Bethel Church)

(Authorized Personnel Only)

What? You lost him?

Yes, captain. I need to track a vehicle.

Hurry.

The epithelial tissue found on the plaster...

wasn't of Han Kook's DNA.

We're having it compared to the other victims' DNA just in case.

Why did you lie to me?

Why did you say the search warrant was issued?

You.

You knew all this time.

That Sung Yo Han is Han Seo Joon's son.

Now I get it.

It's why you said the kid shouldn't be punished.

You knew. Yet, you still...

You...

I know what kind of a monster he is.

What do you mean?

Where's Sung Yo Han's car?

- Did you find it? - No, we're still looking.

We have no time! Hurry! Han Kook will die!

Do you think we're all slacking off?

Everyone's doing their best.

What's that?

(Human Genetic Testing Laboratory)

After having passed the deadline to save Han Kook's life,

which was last night midnight,

professionals think there's a low chance that he might still be alive.

The police still haven't found any clues on the culprit.

- And the case still stays unsolved. - His mother must be so sad.

(Old School Pork and Beef Intestines)

Sir, we have the results.

Darn it.

Okay.

The bloodstain on Sung Yo Han's shoes...

corresponds with the DNA of the guy that was found underneath the sea.

So it's him.

- What? - It's Sung Yo Han.

I just got a call from the NFS.

The DNA from that Goat Man's Band-Aid...

corresponds with the DNA of Oh Bong Yi's grandmother.

Go and get us a warrant.

You should've called before you came.

What is it that you need to tell me?

What is it, sweetheart?

You knew, didn't you?

Knew what?

That your son...

is a murderer.

Bong Yi.

- Hey. - Ba Reum.

- My hand. - Sorry.

Careful.

Just get on my back.

Why?

Don't be stubborn and just come to my place.

- Ba Reum. - Yes?

I'll catch the jerk who killed your grandmother.

You haven't found Han Kook yet?

I'm sure he switched cars here.

You won't be saved even after you die for what you did.

Then give me more manpower.

I can't do this by myself.

You can scout them yourself.

You can't lose hope, okay?

Who are you?

I'll just watch and go.

It isn't too late. Do it if you want.
