Original subtitles

(Previously on 'Zombie Detective')

The body presumed to be the prime suspect...

of the Santa Kidnapping and Murder Case, Oh Hyeong Cheol,

was found at the local hillside of Gangrim.

As the body looks similar to Oh Hyeong Cheol from a year ago,

the police suspect the body they found is Oh Hyeong Cheol.

But the body was badly mutilated.

So the identity of the body is yet to...

- The body was mutilated? - The Gangrim police in charge of...

- Here, take this. - That's hot.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

Thank you for coming.

There's no need to thank me.

Of course I should come.

- Mr. Kim. - You can stop coming to work.

You want me to stop coming to work? Why?

Because I found my past.

There is no reason for you to come to the agency.

What about being human?

You said you wanted to become human.

Just because you go back to being Kang Min Ho,

doesn't mean you'll become human again.

We have to find out how you can become human.

Becoming human...

has become meaningless.

Thanks for your hard work.

It's because of Oh Hyeong Cheol, isn't it?

You said you were with Oh Hyeong Cheol until the end, right?

They said that the body was damaged.

Did you...

You didn't eat Oh Hyeong Cheol,

did you?

What if...

What if I did?

I understand...

why you hate and resent Oh Hyeong Cheol. But...

this isn't right.

How could...

How could you...

eat a human?

Because I'm a zombie.

I need to get away from this place as soon as possible.

This isn't my money.

It belongs to...

Kim Moo Young, who is dead.

These aren't my clothes.

They belong to Kim Moo Young, who is dead.

I'm going to erase...

every trace of me here.

(Detective, Kim Moo Young)

Thanks to Kim Moo Young,

I was able to find my past.

Okay, pass!

Here!

Shoot!

How can he eat a human being?

A human...

Does being a zombie make it okay?

He should've stopped himself.

He said he wants to become human, but why couldn't he stop himself?

Why?

What's wrong with your aunt?

Did she break up with her boyfriend?

My aunt doesn't have a boyfriend.

Really?

My grandma...

always looks up at the sky and talks to herself too.

I'm worried about Aunt Seon Ji.

Me too.

What happens to me who went through so much...

to help him find his past?

I feel betrayed.

Hey, Do Hyun.

How do you feel?

What about the agency?

Did your boss say anything?

Don't talk about my boss to me.

It's upsetting.

Oh Hyeong Cheol.

We got his autopsy report back.

His internal organs were ruptured due to a gunshot.

A gunshot?

Then...

his body wasn't damaged because someone ate him?

Ate him? Who ate him?

Your brother-in-law must be writing a new movie these days.

Why are you acting like this too?

Oh Hyeong Cheol's cause of death was excessive bleeding...

due to internal organ damage.

Hello? Hey, Gong Seon Ji.

Hello?

If she's home at this hour,

that means she didn't go to work at the agency today.

Did Ms. Gong get fired again?

I knew that would happen.

With Ms. Gong's personality, I thought it was strange...

that she was still working there.

What do you mean she was fired?

That detective agency just wasn't a fit for her from the beginning.

- Right. - Right. I'm sure.

What is this? Why is the door locked?

Mr. Kim!

Mr. Kim!

Did he leave already?

(Mr. Kim)

The call can't be connected. Leave a message after the beep.

If he didn't eat him, he should've told me so.

(Episode 9, There Are No Bad Zombies In This World)

I told you not to come out. Go in.

Be careful.

Don't get involved in anything either.

Okay. Go in.

Who are you?

I think I came to the wrong house. I'm sorry.

Son.

Son. It's cold outside, right?

You must be hungry. Let's go inside. Hurry.

What took you so long to come back?

I waited for you for so long.

I should've recognized her then.

I found my past,

but I...

am alone again.

Wake up already.

You should report him to the Employment and Labour Administration,

or send a certification of contents to him?

I'll take care of it myself.

How will you take care of it?

He didn't give you a severance pay. He fired you the day before.

He abused his power to you.

Are you a fool?

I'll take care of it myself, okay?

Where is that boss of yours? If I end up catching him,

I'm going to rip out all his hair!

Okay!

I want to know where he is too.

Does it make sense to fire an employee the day before?

I'm sure he had an unspeakable situation.

What kind of situation could it be?

Those who have are the worst.

I heard from Ms. Lee, who sells green juices,

that the building where his agency is belongs to him.

And you know the animal hospital next door?

It seems he wanted to invest in that too,

so he visited real estate agencies often.

Invest?

I'm sure someone like him...

never worried about making a living his entire life.

My gosh.

That fool.

Mr. Kim!

Cheers.

Hurry. Cheers.

Cheers.

It's so good.

Tripe is my favourite.

Come and grill some meat.

Mr. Kim. You have to grill it!

Before he became a detective,

he owned a barbecue restaurant.

I'm having all sorts of useless thoughts because I'm hungry.

In the end, I'm just a zombie,

and I hate this about myself.

- Congratulations, congratulations - Congratulations, congratulations

Congratulations on becoming Gangrim's number one

- Congratulations, congratulations - Congratulations, congratulations

Congratulations on becoming Gangrim's number one

Who ate all of this? I did!

I can't believe Kim Moo Young ran away without a trace.

But still.

I thought he'd say goodbye to me before he left.

He's more cowardly than I thought.

Who cares if he has nice skin?

A man should have spirit. Don't you agree?

He looks so pale and sick.

I had a bad first impression of him anyway.

Hold on.

Then what happens to that employee of his?

She's probably unemployed.

I coveted her talent.

You don't even have money to pay her.

I don't.

I should change the person who gets paid.

Just tell me what to do. I'll do everything.

Okay. I'll keep an eye on you.

First, why don't you make some of that braised mackerel...

you said you were so good at making?

Yes, sir.

I won't see you off.

Goodbye, Kim Moo Young.

I'm picking ants to eat.

However, it doesn't even make a dent in my hunger.

If I knew this would happen,

I should've taken some money with me.

I smell something.

I smell the scent of living humans.

Come to think of it, on that day...

What?

What was I thinking just now?

I felt...

appetite to a jerk like him?

I'm...

not a human anymore.

Zombies cannot survive without eating humans.

Last time,

you said it was possible with substitutional food.

Substitutional food can do for a while.

But it cannot control the zombie's natural instinct.

- Seon Ji. Why are zombies zombies? - Why?

Because they eat humans.

Then...

is it impossible for zombies to live in harmony with humans?

Yes. It's never possible.

Seon Ji. Look.

In front of their eyes,

their food is walking on two feet. How can they resist it?

Can you resist the squid when it's in front of you?

Appetite is all animals' basic instinct.

By the way,

what kind of food does your boss like?

Tripe.

He likes tripe stew especially.

If he likes tripe, then he likes meat.

I must satisfy my appetite.

If I wait any longer,

I don't know what's going to happen.

What?

What happened?

What am I doing here?

(Secrets Secured, Accident Investigation)

What's this?

I don't remember anything.

How did I get here?

And what on earth has happened?

What's wrong with this?

That smell...

Kim Moo Young. Let me owe you for the last time.

(Detective Kim Moo Young)

What brings you here?

Hello.

I didn't do this.

That's...

How did this happen?

Why did the door break?

Well...

It wasn't me.

I'll leave it here.

I came just in case.

You're here as I thought.

I couldn't come empty handed,

so I brought something. I heard you like meat.

Their bulgogi is truly amazing.

If you're too shy to go alone,

I'll go with you.

(Jung's Bulgogi Coupon)

Thank you.

By the way, what brings you here?

Oh, my sister-in-law is looking for you.

If that's why you're here,

I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do about it.

I know. I know you probably have an indescribable reason.

I'm not here...

because of my sister-in-law. I just want to...

have a close conversation with you.

- With me? - Yes.

(Detective Kim Moo Young)

I wanted to show you this.

What's this?

That's my soul.

Why are you giving me your soul?

I'm actually looking for an investor.

It's not my money.

It's Kim Moo Young's.

I'm sorry, but I don't have any money.

Really? How...

I'm not asking you to invest in my movie.

Don't feel pressured.

I just thought we understand each other very well.

Especially about zombies.

There's no other intention.

Then I will read this later.

I'm quite busy right now, so...

I know you're busy.

That's why I prepared a briefing on this scenario.

I'm good.

A match of the century...

after Freddy versus Jason.

A horror action film by Korea and China.

It was the late Joseon Dynasty.

We have a coffin made from the royal foxglove tree here today...

for an amazing price.

A blow out sale today

Only for the first person

(Royal foxglove tree coffin)

Gosh. The business is terrible today.

They are...

Joseon's best sister swindlers...

who sell coffins to dead corpses.

Seon Young. You think it would sell?

The most profitable business in Joseon is...

the real estate.

There are so many corpses in Hanyang.

We have to sell these to make a living.

You don't even know better.

Seon Young. Someone's coming.

- Where? - Finally,

the first customer appears.

A corpse...

from Qing, the Chinese zombie.

It's a customer.

Sir.

We have a royal foxglove tree coffin.

- One... - A royal foxglove tree.

You have to jump on one.

1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1.

Welcome.

Let me see if you have anything good.

Sir. Isn't it hard to get your own place?

Don't you worry.

There's a coffin perfect for you right here.

About this coffin...

About this coffin.

It's got the nice scent of royal foxglove tree.

It's nice.

It's well ventilated in summer.

It's cool.

It's spacious and cozy enough...

to turn 360 degrees while lying down.

That's right.

It comes in a modern and vintage design.

All right. If you buy it today,

I'll give you 50 percent discount.

- A discount. - Bury the coffin...

and take the mountain too.

At that moment, a talisman that sealed the Chinese zombie...

got blown away. And a crisis comes.

What?

Fortunately, we have Master Younghan.

Don't worry. I've subdued him.

Oh, that's not the one.

- Master. Are you okay? - Are you okay?

- What do I do? - No.

Master Younghan runs away.

The Chinese zombie attacks the sisters.

The only thing humans can do...

is blocking their noses.

If they don't breathe, the Chinese zombie can't find them.

When they're about to get eaten by the Chinese zombie,

a decent looking...

Joseon corpse zombie shows up to save them.

Why did the zombie appear?

Is it to eat humans?

Eating is important,

but getting his own place is more important.

In fact, it reflects the current social issue.

(If you make fun of me for being slow, I'll eat you.)

(I want to close the lid and sleep warmly.)

A match between the Chinese zombie and the zombie over a coffin.

It's the match of the century.

Who do you support?

The zombie, of course.

I knew it.

It's the chop.

(Chinese zombie can throw away a wild boar with its frozen arms.)

What's the zombie's weapon?

The zombie's weapon is patience.

It feels no sense or pain.

How is that a weapon?

They finally bite each other.

The Chinese zombie bit the zombie. The zombie bit the Chinese zombie.

The Chinese zombie becomes a zombie.

The zombie becomes a Chinese zombie.

As they get infected,

they switch.

That zombie is totally my style.

Should I seduce him?

What?

Last time you seduced an incubus,

you struggled so much to shake him off.

Now, it's a zombie?

Goodness. You eat off dead people.

What a venomous witch.

Just bite him.

Who will take...

the royal foxglove tree coffin?

He's handsome.

(Big sale)

What's he doing here?

- Have you seen my hat? - You cheap jerk.

I left my hat here.

Do they keep switching?

Does it even end?

One of them has to die for the fight to end.

But they're both corpses.

(Where is My Coffin)

It never ends.

After the fight with the Chinese zombie,

the zombie takes the coffin.

However, the water leaks in that coffin,

so when he goes to get a repair, he falls in love...

with the younger sister.

What do you think?

I think the blatant romantic story is childish.

My soul must've been light.

If you give me one more chance,

I'll come back with another soul.

- It's okay. - No. I wasn't good enough.

I'll come back.

Why don't you look into something else...

Why does he have to come to me?

It's no time for this.

The bag...

Mister. Did you go somewhere?

What's he doing here?

Can you give Hodu a shower today?

Mister. What are you doing?

Not today. You should go.

What was I thinking?

Where am I going to work?

What?

("Chairman Lee Kwang Shik of New Truth Receives 5 Years in Prison")

I can't believe it. Only five years?

Those jerks should get at least 50 years.

(50 years)

This is why...

I can't stop being nosy.

He finally left.

I can smell tripe even from here.

My. You were here. In fact...

What's she doing here?

You're alone.

There are so many people visiting this office.

I got this for you.

I went outside the city...

to get this for you.

Prime Korean beef entrails.

The smell of the human...

is stronger than the tripe.

Will you spend an hour with me...

It's dangerous.

I don't know what I'll do if she stays here any longer.

Let's talk for just five minutes.

- Five minutes is enough. - She's desperate to die.

Let's have a serious conversation about tripe.

If you want to live, please go back.

Does that mean...

I have to bet my life to see you?

That's great.

I also think if you don't risk your life,

it is not true love.

Thank you.

Mr. Kim. Mr. Kim?

Mr. Kim.

She's so persistent.

He's so shy.

He's totally my style.

Mr. Kim. I'm leaving.

Let's have a serious conversation...

- soon, Mr. Kim. - Wei. Let's go.

What are you doing?

Kim Moo Young's back.

What?

Where?

Where? Where?

(Agency)

Gosh. You scared me. He's not there.

You must see things. That's too bad at a young age.

Kim Moo Young's not in Gangrim anymore.

So come to your senses and follow me.

We have so much to do.

Let's go, Wei.

Detective agency is perfect for me.

I enjoyed working with Mr. Kim.

(Kim Moo Young Agency)

(World King Agency)

World King...

Do you plan to go global with me?

I'm recruiting talents to create a global company.

Your insanity...

I mean, I like you so much.

That stings.

We are talking. Why would you stare like that?

Gong Seon Ji.

Bo Ra. Why do you come out from there?

What else? I just met your boss.

My... My boss?

- Yes. - Is my boss in there right now?

Yes. He's so cute.

- I'll see you later. - What?

See you.

What's this? The back of my head stings.

What?

He knows nothing about women.

Don't you think that'd scare her?

Are you crying?

(Kim Moo Young Agency)

Boss.

What? What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

You acted like you were never going to come back.

I came here because I forgot something.

Just that.

Are you here to eat that chicken?

You think I'd come all the way here to eat this chicken?

That's crazy. Don't be ridiculous.

It's garbage.

You didn't...

eat Oh Hyeong Cheol, but why didn't you tell the truth?

Did you do that on purpose? Because you don't want to work with me?

- Yes. - What?

I did that on purpose because I don't want to work with you.

So,

are you running away again?

Where are you going this time?

The mountain is restricted due to development.

Oh, are you going to the US or something?

Right. They make lots of zombie movies.

So I guess your right to live will be protected.

But you know what? Guns are allowed in the US.

They'll kill you as soon as they find you.

Stop being nosy.

If you stay with me, you'll be in danger.

So? Are you seriously leaving like this?

It's better for both of us.

Where's the boss?

Seon Young.

I'm glad I found you here.

How dare you fire my sister without notice?

Either give her severance pay...

or let's go to Employment and Labour Administration with me now.

I'm going to tell the whole country...

that you went on a power trip.

Wait. Calm down.

Let's go to the Employment and Labour Administration. Now!

It's a misunderstanding.

- Misunderstanding? - Yes.

There's a misunderstanding. Let him go.

Both sisters are brutal.

He didn't fire me.

He went on a business trip,

and I misunderstood it.

Our office is open as usual.

Right, Boss?

- Yes. - Is that true?

Yes. I was actually on the way to work.

He's on the way to work.

If something comes up,

please call me.

There's an employee family discount.

Right, Boss?

Yes. Of course.

20 percent.

Are you sure? He didn't fire you?

Gosh. Why would you misunderstand that?

I'm sorry, sir. I took it wrong.

Please take care of Seon Ji, sir.

Seon Ji. You should go home. I'll be home soon.

Then I'll get going now, sir.

See you later.

She'd really take you to the Employment and Labour Administration.

If you have to leave,

leave.

I won't stop you anymore.

I didn't eat Oh Hyeong Cheol,

but it's true that I almost ate him.

That night, I felt an appetite from him.

That's the reason I can't be a human.

Is that true?

I'm afraid of what's going to happen.

I feel like I'm turning into a real zombie.

You need to help me.

I want to live...

as a human like you.

I don't want to live as a zombie...

who feels an appetite from a human.

So you need to help me.

(Cave, night)

Train a zombie?

Don't you think you're too imaginative?

Why not?

Their aggression and appetite can be controlled.

It might be possible,

but how do zombies understand humans?

Tae Kyun. Every animal evolves...

according to the environment in order to survive.

Why can't zombies do it?

He can learn a language by practicing the pronunciation.

He can learn to walk on a treadmill.

Why can't zombies do it?

A treadmill?

It seems...

you're more positive about zombies than I am.

It's not totally impossible since effort makes everything possible.

But think about it.

Who can train a zombie?

If anything goes wrong, he'll eat you.

That...

depends on the zombie.

Tae Kyun. You know what?

It's not that zombies don't understand what humans say.

It's that humans don't try to listen to zombies.

- Okay. - Gosh.

Right.

She strangely makes sense.

Zombies and humans.

There must be a way.

(How to train a zombie)

Zombie...

(Zombie)

What kind of zombie runs on a treadmill to walk straight?

Boss is rewriting history of zombies.

So he can do anything. Anything.

He can do it.

Boss.

Why did you suddenly bring Great Profit?

I invited someone special for you.

Who?

This is my boss.

And you know him, right?

He's an animal behaviour specialist, Seol Chae Hyeon.

Do you own a dog?

Well... Yes.

Is this the one with a problem?

Yes.

Lately, he's been having a good appetite.

He became quite aggressive.

I think...

he might end up biting someone.

Let me see.

It's a male.

Yes, a male.

A male.

It feels somewhat offensive.

Aggression is never...

a dog's problem alone.

It comes from the relationship between the dog and its owner.

So it's very important to construct a bond.

A bond?

To construct a bond,

trust is important.

It's a good idea to go on a walk together.

He can also relieve himself on a walk.

In the process of handling it,

it builds a bond.

Let me know if you want to go to the restroom.

You...

How many times do I need to tell you that I'm not an animal?

How am I the same as him when he walks on four feet...

and I walk on upright?

How dare you compare me to a dog?

I'm just stretching. Don't get any weird thoughts.

Let me know if you want to go to the restroom.

Seriously...

(Detective Kim Moo Young)

It's important to grow patience.

That must be controlled to prevent him from biting humans.

Wait.

Wait.

Did you just talk casually to me?

It's a kind of signal.

It's better when it's short and strong.

No, wait.

Whatever. I'm not doing it.

I won't eat.

Where's the bankbook?

Is it here? The bankbook...

It's here somewhere.

Where is it?

(SH Bankbook)

- I found it. - Wait.

Seon Ji. I thought you were asleep.

Seon Ji. I'm just getting the bankbook. I need to use it.

- Sit. - Sit?

I'm already sitting down. Sit down more?

I was going to...

tell Seon Young the truth.

I said no.

You said no? When did you say no?

I don't think I heard it.

- Hand. - Hand?

Hand? How? Like this?

- Hand. - What?

Or like this?

Will you let it slide?

I think this film will be a hit.

So please don't tell your sister...

What? Where are you, Seon Ji?

Hurry up. Hand. Hand.

Seriously.

- You keep talking down. - Hand.

- What? - Hand.

Did you think I would do it? How dare you?

Wait.

Wait, Boss. Boss, Boss!

My goodness. Now she's doing all kinds of weird things.

All kinds of things.

(Gangrim Police Station)

(The police people can trust and depend on)

About Oh Hyeong Cheol.

Did you do a background check on the old lady who lived with him?

Yes.

Her name is Kim Kyung Ja.

Does she have a family?

She has a son, but I couldn't contact him.

People around her say that she and he hasn't been in touch for a year.

It's possible that he just ran away.

(Family Relation Certificate)

Kang Min Ho?

- May I? - Sure.

(Kang Min Ho)

Wait a minute.

- Isn't it Kim Moo Young? - Doesn't he look just like him?

I was so surprised when I first saw this.

Why are you looking at Kim Moo Young's picture?

This isn't Kim Moo Young.

But it is him.

Do we really have to do this?

If you know your enemy and yourself, you can win every battle.

You need to know yourself in order to control yourself.

Besides, you also want to find out...

what happens when you black out.

Yes, I want to know...

what I'm like when I black out.

For three days from now on...

everything will be recorded for 72 hours.

I put some chickens in the fridge just in case you need them.

For three days?

(Empty stomach 00 hours 00 minutes 01 seconds)

(World King Agency)

Wait a minute. That's Kim Moo Young.

Gosh. Why is he back?

I wonder why.

Wait.

So he has an unusual sexual preference?

Let me.

Give it back. This isn't for kids.

My goodness. She's drawing the blinds.

Gosh. I can't see anything. Those weirdos.

I want to see what they're doing.

In the middle of the day?

Are you all right?

So far so good.

If you're going to sleep, just go home.

I wasn't sleeping.

I know you were.

(Empty stomach 12 hours 20 minutes 30 seconds)

(Empty stomach 12 hours 20 minutes 31 seconds)

(Empty stomach 12 hours 20 minutes 32 seconds)

My goodness. What are you doing here?

Wait, didn't you quit this job?

Well, I work here again.

Boss couldn't run business without me.

The problem isn't the boss, it's you.

So what brings you here?

I'm here to see your boss.

Mr. Kim? What for?

I need to ask him something.

- Ask him what? - It's none of your concern.

I have to check for myself.

- He's in there, right? - No.

- He's not in the office. - Where did he go?

- On a business trip. - A business trip?

Yes, all the way to the United States.

- The United States? - Yes.

It's a global world, you know.

Why would a detective go on a business trip to the United States?

There are many things to investigate in that country.

He'd be all right, wouldn't he?

(The mystery of Zombie)

Don't come near me.

Just stay there.

Good boy.

Good boy.

Good boy.

I told you not to come near me!

Boss?

Boss, are you all right?

Maybe I hit him too hard.

Are you awake?

Wait, what happened?

Don't worry. You didn't eat any human.

What?

So this is what you look like without makeup.

So what?

It's impossible for me to turn you into a human being.

But I found a way for you to fight your instincts as a zombie.

What's that?

Did you hit me in the head with this to stop me?

I heard a zombie' weakness is the back of their head.

And you wanted 100,000 dollars of settlement money from me?

You're totally a con artist.

Back then, I was...

You hit my head when the back of my head is this flat?

Boss.

Let me ask you a question.

You said you wanted to become a human.

Did you really mean that?

Yes.

Then this is what we should do with this business.

Let's run this place again.

Then we'll find a way for you to become a human...

and live like decent human beings.

Some people need to be punished, and others need help.

And there are people who lost their lives.

Helping those kinds of people...

is what this agency is supposed to do.

Among all the people...

I mean, among all living things...

you were the most humane thing I've ever seen.

I think staying in the office is the safest.

For you.

And for other people too.

Don't you think so?

(Detective Kim Moo Young)

(Yield to others and consider others to build good character.)

Stop pushing me. Stop pushing!

Wait a minute. Look.

Listen to me.

I'm not the con artist. That detective is.

Being stuck in a car...

and being stabbed by a stick were all fake!

That guy, Kim Moo Young. I mean the detective.

You need to investigate him!

Please tell them to investigate him!

Kim Moo Young.

The detective.

Did you just say Directive Kim Moo Young?

Well, what if I did say that?

Number 3715, out of the room.

(Advanced correction center is the key to the future.)

(Correction)

So Kim Moo Young is alive?

(Zombie Detective)

This is Kim Moo Young.

I think it's my turn to return the favour this time.

Kang Min Ho. Recently, I saw a man...

who looks exactly like you.

Noh Poong Shik is no human. He's a monster.

What bring you here?

- Seong Rok. - Yes, sir.

I need you to do something.

Even if there is a way, you can't go that way.

Still, if there is a way, please show me the way.

Are you a monster or what?

Help!

The resurrected misery, Zombie Detective.
