SAFETY OF CHILD ACTORS WAS ENSURED

EIGHT YEARS AGO

You can't go in, sir.

Professor Kwon!

You can't go in. Please calm down.

No.

No!

Hi!

Hi, Dad.

Did I do a good job?

Look at this.

How is it?

Let's go.

Did you record it right?

You're my hero, Dad.

Because you always keep me safe.

I love you, Dad.

I love you.

Bye.

Are you Gaetal?

Should I ask you again?

Kwon Seok-joo.

Do you know anything about Gaetal

and the Killing Vote?

It's Byun Woo-taek!

Mr. Byun, any comments?

What kind of messed-up law is this?

What kind of law
lets a criminal walk free?

-You call that the law?
-But still...

We must follow it.

Because it's the law.

Kim Mu-chan.

We were very close in the past,

and he told me that he respected me.

And...

He also knows about the phrase
"the devils who were deemed innocent."

Making sure that those
who deserve to die are dead.

And calling the villain
on the gallows a victim.

-Superintendent Kim Mu-chan.
-Weren't you severely injured?

Please tell us what's going on.

Tell me,

Superintendent Kim Mu-chan.

What is justice for you?

THE KILLING VOTE

KIM REPORTED TO BE IN SERIOUS CONDITION

EPISODE 4

Are you watching, Mom?

Yeah, I'm watching it.

Initially announced
as being in critical condition,

it was revealed that Superintendent Kim
only sustained minor injuries.

What?

Is this the thing
that keeps your heart beating?

Does that mean
that if it stops, you'll die?

...and sent the location
of Kim to the press...

Are you embarrassed?

-It's okay--
-Embarrassed?

The rotten and corrupt police are now
mocking the people with fake news.

They distorted the true intention
of The Killing Vote

and framed me for hurting an innocent cop.

What was so wrong?

Our justice is

extremely rational.

Please give us a comment.

What are you going to do?

Please give us a few words!

I'm going to make an official statement.

So please stop.

Whether you write articles
online or offline,

do whatever you want.

But I want you to include

every single word I'm about to say.

I'm Kim Mu-chan
from the Special Investigation Unit.

As the culprit just said,

blinded by the urge
to quickly solve the case,

I lied to you and pretended
to be seriously injured.

I deeply apologize.

Ridiculous.

Is he serious?

That's just nonsense.

Due to my actions,
I realize you've lost faith in the police.

However,

even if I could go back in time,

I would choose to do the same.

Isn't that crossing the line?

He surely knows
how to attract the viewers.

Make it a close-up.
Don't miss a word he says.

The culprit has committed murder
on the pretext of rectifying injustices,

and he's turned the entire nation
into accomplices.

Right now, as a criminal receives
more support than the police,

I was willing to break rules to catch
this heinous criminal as soon as possible.

I hope everyone understands this.

Also...

You and The Killing Vote.

Don't be mistaken.

You're not a hero.

You're clearly a murderer,

and your method is wrong.

I'm going to catch you no matter what.

-Who's behind this?
-Are you resigning?

Is the unit disbanded?

Don't you think you're hindering
the investigation?

Fire!

-Where?
-Over there!

Run!

Fire!

Superintendent Kim!

Superintendent Kim!

Blinded by the urge
to quickly solve the case,

I lied to you and pretended
to be seriously injured.

I deeply apologize.

You shouldn't think badly of him.

You all heard about what he did
until the explosion happened.

He tried to save that pathetic woman
in that bad situation

even though he knew
it could've killed him too.

He was just doing the best he could
to fight the Gaetal craze.

Oh, my God!

The traffic on our website is going crazy.

The NPA server is already
about to go down.

Insulting posts are flooding in,

adding a page per second
to the message boards.

The server might really go down
at this rate.

You think this is funny?

What are you talking about?

I'm moderating the message boards now.

Hateful comments create
more hateful comments.

Before they keep showing up,

we have to stop them at regular intervals.

Then, erase this too.

Who does he think he is
to call our leader a psycho?

Can't we track his location?

We're not stupid.

Did you think we wouldn't understand?

How could you not tell us
and keep it all to yourselves?

You didn't trust us.

Right?

The fewer people involved,
the higher the chances of success.

Hey. Stop mumbling and speak up.

The fewer people involved,
the higher the chances of success.

It's not that we didn't trust you.

We didn't want to drag you into this.

Hello, Choi Jin-soo of the SIU speaking.

I'm taking off now.

Bae Gi-chul's wife has been
found dead too.

-What?
-What?

Don't be mistaken.

You're not a hero.

You're clearly a murderer,

and your method is wrong.

I'm going to catch you no matter what.

As the culprit just said,

blinded by the urge to quickly solve...

I was worried this would happen.

Anyway, if people find out
why he came here,

both of us will be in trouble.

I hope they find out.

So we can find Gaetal.

What do you mean?

Wait, Professor Kwon.

Are you really connected
with the Killing Vote guy?

You're not, are you?

If the police hadn't had such suspicions,
they wouldn't have come to me.

Kim Mu-chan is not an idiot.

If they find out what I did
instead of performing labor,

they might believe
the suspicions are true.

Are you threatening me?

No way.

We're not in that situation yet.

Come in.

ROOKIE POLICE OFFICER
BRAVELY BLOWS THE WHISTLE

Inmate 0512.

Keep walking.

Inmate 0512.

Move.

Keep walking.

You little...

Motherfucker.

Have you lost your mind?

Did that tea taste good?

You think you're so great?

Look at you acting all classy
after murdering a person.

You're nothing more than a murderer.

You piece of shit.

Because of you scumbags,

this country is never going to improve.

You useless piece of shit.

-Let go. Die, you bastard.
-Stop!

Darn it.

The whole country knows your face now.

Taking a cab is out of the question,
let alone staying in a hotel

or sleeping on the street.

Everyone is a paparazzi these days.

They can instantly post
your photos online, report you, and...

What are you doing?

Hey.

Still, this is a bit...

This isn't right.
I'll just go to Jin-soo's or Sang-jae's.

Jo-dan called.

He said that the police agency
is now surrounded by reporters

and our unit is quite upset too,

so you should hide somewhere tonight.

Also, Lieutenant Choi and Detective Kang
are out on duty.

Right. This is the bathroom.

Okay.

So refreshing.

Hyun, you're home?

I get that you have nowhere to go
in this humiliating situation,

but you can't just come
to a ladies-only home like this.

Don't you have manners?

Or common sense?

Min.

Speaking of common sense,

I wonder why teenagers got involved

in a dangerous police investigation.
It's against common sense.

How could you even go to Kwon's house?

Using my common sense,
I just can't understand why.

And the kid you were with.

He significantly contributed
to our failure in catching the culprit.

What's your relationship?

So you're one of those people
who holds grudges for long time.

Well, people are condemning me
as a senseless police officer anyway.

So I need you to tell me only the facts.

How did you kids end up there?

-Look, mister.
-That was my mistake.

I was using her computer
when I first found Gaetal's test video.

I forgot to erase it afterward,

so she and her friend
found the video and analyzed it.

They actually did a great job
analyzing the background noises and space,

so I joined them.

Then, we found Kwon Seok-joo's place.

You found the house thanks to us,
so don't blame her. Okay?

Do you remember anything about him?

Any facial or body features?
Or any strange behaviors?

I was attacked from behind,

so I didn't really see anything.

Well, from the way
he was fighting with you,

he seemed to be
a professional martial artist.

I was thinking the same.

His smell.

The smell?

His clothes smelled strange.

Ji-hoon, get him.

Let go, Min. Just let him go.

Like a firecracker.

He had the same smell
as when you play with fireworks.

He smelled like metal too.

Firecrackers.

Fireworks.

Gunpowder.

Wait.

Could he be the same person
who blew up the car?

He might be Gaetal then.

Your sister's pretty quick-witted.

She wants to be a reporter.

You should try to avoid her.

If I'd held onto him longer,
we would've caught the man.

It's all Ji-hoon's fault.

Actually, no.

There are tons of people to be judged,
so Gaetal can't get caught just yet.

I thought you wanted to be a reporter.

Are you taking the murderer's side?

It is not wrong to punish
criminals who are set free

by incompetent authorities.

And who gave Gaetal
the right to do that? You?

The law?

Nobody has the right to kill a person

nor can one person change the rules
for an entire society.

That's what you have to criticize first.

I guess you've never experienced
injustice in your life.

-Enough.
-I bet you never had to see someone

live a good life
after murdering your family.

Because if it ever happened to you,

you wouldn't stick to your ideals
and blame Gaetal.

What if I have?

If I've been through the same thing,

do I have the right to arrest him?

Hey, mister.

People call you a smart-ass, right?

Right back at you.

He's so annoying.

Min, wait...

Darn it.

Hey.

I told you to give it a rest.

You can't be so honest all the time.
You'll get in real trouble.

Aren't you even scared?

Come to the station
as soon as school's over tomorrow.

We need your statement.

Why should I?

Because you and your friend
saw the culprit.

Don't be scared.
Just tell them what you saw.

Whatever!

The neighbors are going to gossip,

so kick him out early tomorrow.

And tell him to empty our recycle bin.

Fine.

Jeez, that temper of hers...

You held a press conference on a whim?

What are you going to do
about this disgrace?

What's more important is

how Gaetal got the video.

We must resume the investigation now.

Forget it.
Just lie low until I call you again.

-And don't talk to anyone.
-I'll go back to the unit.

You clean up the mess,
and I'll catch Gaetal.

That's the only way to handle

-this humiliation.
-Kim Mu-chan, you--

Good gracious!

Don't bother arguing with the higher-ups.

It won't do you any good.

Now, I'm reminded of someone.

And that bad breath.

Oh, this.

I got it from a car accident
when I was 20.

Hot shrapnel hit me.

Whenever I'm stressed out,

it starts burning.

Were your parents in the car

when you had the accident?

It's a common story.

At least I was all grown up
when they passed.

But my sister was still...

She saw our parents die,

so she's a little too protective of me.

She's probably afraid of ending up alone.

That's why she insisted
on following me yesterday.

It's all my fault.

Now it's your turn to open up.

Kwon Seok-joo was talking to you

as if you were Gaetal.

And there must've been a reason for it.

What happened between you two?

EIGHT YEARS AGO

I don't like this. I feel stuffy.

I feel so stuffy.

Five charges of sexual harassment.

Two charges each of trespassing
and sexual assault.

Since he was a minor
with an intellectual disability,

he always had his sentences reduced

or he settled with the victims.

I bet it cost a fortune too.

I wonder what kind of parents would pay

for all those settlements
for such a scumbag.

But the thing is...

He's registered at the chairman
of Samdo Steel's address.

You know his new wife
is an assemblywoman, right?

I'm not interested in politics.

Apparently, his father
is the chairman's driver

and his mother is the housekeeper there.

It seems the chairman paid
for his lawyer and settlement.

They're like family, I hear.

I bet he has money to burn,

but there must be a reason
why he paid the settlements

for his employee's son.

FINAL TRIAL OF BYUN WOO-TAEK

Your Honor.

We just received the DNA test results

from an object belonging to the victim
that was found belatedly.

Permission to submit
this as additional evidence?

What's odd is that this new evidence
the police found

looks very similar to... No.

It's identical to the toy.

Order in the court. Silence!

This is the plush toy
the victim always carried around.

A deliver worker
who'd often run into the victim

found this in front of her house
and reported it.

We had a DNA test done on it,

but unlike the prosecution's evidence,

neither the defendant's fingerprints
nor his DNA was found

on this plush toy.

Results show the only fingerprints
found on it belonged to the victim

and her friends and family.

Prosecution, are you sure
the toy in the photo is the victim's?

Prosecutor, please explain.

We will announce the verdict.

To summarize the charges,

the defendant Byun Woo-taek
is charged with kidnapping,

killing, and concealing the body
of Kwon Na-rae.

Initially, the defendant
admitted these charges to the police,

but later retracted his statement
during the court proceedings,

which led to the loss of validity
of his confession.

Moreover, the prosecution
claimed a plush toy

with an unidentified bloodstain
and the defendant's DNA

belonged to the victim.

However, it was deemed to be
a different piece of evidence

from the toy the defense submitted.

So in accordance with Article 325
of the Criminal Procedure Act,

I declare the defendant innocent.

Your Honor.

-Are we going home?
-Yes, let's go.

Let's go home.

Let's go.

Let's go home.

Thank you.

Hello.

Stop it.

Seok-joo...

The culprit was set free
practically because of me,

so he must deeply resent me.

And that led to Kwon Seok-joo killing him,

so in a way, it is all my fault.

We investigate and catch criminals,

but we don't judge them, so why?

If Kwon Seok-joo still resents you,

I think it just means
that he needs someone to blame.

Maybe.

By the way,

I wonder where Gaetal got
the video of Seorae High.

Judging by the conversation in the video,
students must've filmed it.

The Cyber Bureau had kept an eye online

in case someone uploaded the video,
but they didn't find anything.

Gaetal can't have approached
the kids first.

Let's find the kids who filmed it first.

Then, we might find something.

She was strangled to death

with something that's about 2 cm thick.

The bruises on her shoulders
suggest that he stepped on them

to strangle her more forcefully.

The killer is presumed
to be a man about 180 cm tall.

Since there's no ligature mark,

it seems that he used something
that's elastic.

I'll take a look at past cases for this.

The victim's heels are severely scraped

and her fingers show redness,
which shows she resisted.

It seems she fought hard against him.

Then, the perpetrator
must have been injured too, right?

In most cases,
victims scratch the perpetrators' hands.

But this time, we only found

a little bit of latex
from under the victim's fingernails.

I don't think
the murderer was Gaetal this time.

The man I fought with
at Kwon Seok-joo's place

was muscular and good at martial arts.

He would've killed her right away.

Then, who did this?

Who in the world
are we supposed to go after?

SELF-STUDY

-Did you make a reservation?
-Yes.

You'd like to resell
the Moon Night Blossom model, right?

Yes.

It seems you're a new customer.

Was it a gift?

Stop asking me questions.
You're annoying me.

You didn't bring the case
and the warranty card.

Then, I'm afraid we can't take this back.

You've got to be kidding me.

I know this one's a limited edition,

so I can resell it
without the warranty card.

Right.

By the way, aren't you an actress?

No, I'm not.

Hello, ma'am.

Hey.

-Close the store.
-Yes, ma'am.

Are you crazy?

You know I can destroy
your son's life instantly, right?

You're very loud.

My neck hurts. Sit down.

Are you crazy, lady?

I picked the one
that suits where you belong,

so just keep your mouth shut.

If you ever say anything
about my son to anyone,

it won't end like this then.

Are you kidding me?

A 100-million-won watch

for this?

You should've put in some more then.

This is the problem with kids these days.

They just don't know their place
and keep wanting more.

You'll have to change jobs
starting tomorrow.

Right. I want you to order
the jewelry you recommended.

I love it.

Thank you, ma'am.

Guys, look.

What is it?

What's happening?

Should we call someone?

Guys.

When you borrow money,
you need to pay back in time.

I worked hard to earn that, you know.

You forced me to borrow it.

Listen to this bitch.

The reason for that is

you were too proud to ask me,

so I was being considerate.

Aren't you grateful?

Hey, friend.

Pay the interest first.

The interest for 5,000 won is 50,000 won?
That's nonsense.

-I'm not paying that.
-Nonsense?

It's not like we're stealing money
from you, is it?

Answer me, you bastard.

How about we make it fair and vote on it?

Guys, come here.

Who thinks what I'm doing is wrong?

Anyone?

Think about it. I just want my money back.

Raise your hand
if you think what I'm doing is wrong.

If over half of us think so,
I'll admit it.

No one?

No one?

-Okay.
-I do.

Isn't that So-ra?

You know you look ridiculous, right?

Playing loan shark
and Killing Vote at school?

You think this is a game?

Guys, stand up.

Come on. Let's go.

That crazy little...

You little...

You think you own that air purifier?

I'm feeling so stuffy.

I can't breathe.

Don't be selfish.

You're blocking it.

The air isn't circulating properly.

Why don't you turn on the AC then?

God, just move.

Then, everything will be fine.

Turn up the purifier.

We all need to cool off.

WIND SPEED

Sir.

I'm sorry.

Let it slide just this once.

I'm not afraid of the reporters

or the people cussing at me,

but I was mad at myself

for getting all of you blamed too.

If you don't want me
to be your leader anymore,

I'll accept that.

So just say it.

This is hilarious.

Stop it. We know you'd rather die
than saying sorry.

This isn't like you.

You're alive. That's what matters.

Just treat us to some beef.

Yoon-ji.

Are you sure just some beef would do?

And beef brisket for the last course.

In hard times like this,
we must stick together.

Let's just move on.

But the superintendent's morality
has been questioned--

No, Jjoo. This is a limited edition...

Darn it.

Darn it.

This is where Bae Gi-chul's wife
was killed.

We haven't found any suspects

around the estimated time of death, but...

The culprit doesn't seem
to be a first-timer.

He doesn't seem to be an expert though.

Still, he could be a hitman.

We're making a list
of ex-convicts with similar MOs.

There's a good chance

that he pretended to be Gaetal
to confuse us.

Let the local precinct
take care of this case for now.

They could start
with possible enemies of the victim.

What about the guy from Kwon's house?

It might be the same culprit
for both cases.

He must know the area well.
He sneaked out through blind spots.

One camera caught his face,

but it's hard to identify
someone in a mask.

-Hyun.
-Yes?

Are your sister and her friend
coming to give their statements today?

I have something to ask her friend.

They should've been here by now.

I'll check what's going on.

MIN'S HOMEROOM TEACHER

Wait. There.

Hello, this is Min's older sister.

Superintendent Kim, that man...

I think he's that taxi driver.

-Ko Dong-gyu.
-Right?

But what was he doing there?

I'll be right back.

My sister is hurt.

What? Min...

Who will be the next one?
I'm already scared.

I actually kind of like Gaetal.

For innocent people like us,

it's quite satisfying to watch the voting,

like a breath of fresh air.

I agree. I like Gaetal too.

Dr. Oh.

That patient is still under anesthesia.

Is that so?

She should wake up soon.

Let me check on her again.

Ms. Lee Eun-ha?

You should wake up now.

Your heart rate seems stable.

Excuse me. Hello?

I'll be right there.

That pervert--

Are you okay?

Are you being nosy again?
You want more trouble?

You're being a total nuisance now.

Should I just leave him, then?
I'm sure he was taking photos of her.

Acting without solid evidence
is just being nosy.

You can't even catch them that way.

I know people like him pretty well.

You need to collect more evidence

and take them down in one swoop.

But while I do that,
there will be more victims.

That can't be avoided.

Now, that's a load of crap.

I'd rather be a complete nuisance

than a coward.

Being a nuisance is better.

What?

The offending students
are being investigated by the police now.

Have you decided what to do?

He's not too hurt,

so covering the hospital bill
should be enough.

-Are you sure?
-You'll see later--

I'm looking for a student.

Joo Min from Seorae High.
She's a school violence victim.

One moment, please.

-Are you Min's sister?
-What?

Hello, I'm Min's homeroom teacher.

It's just a minor scratch,
so you don't have to worry too much.

Hello. It's nice to meet you.

It's nice to meet you too.

Min's injury is minor
thanks to her friend Ji-hoon,

who got hurt more severely
trying to protect her.

The offenders are being investigated
by the police now.

I'll go check on them
once Ji-hoon is done here.

Is Ji-hoon badly hurt?

Hyun.

You!

Hey, I'm a patient.

You were being nosy again, weren't you?

You could die, you know.

I was in the pursuit of justice.

Justice, my foot. Shut that mouth.

Ji-hoon, Min owes you once again.

Thank you so much, and I'm sorry.

Well, I was in the pursuit of justice too.

So it's okay.

I'll pay for the hospital bill,

so make sure to take care
of your injuries. Okay?

Okay.

Right. This is Ji-hoon's grandmother.

She works here at the hospital.

You must be so worried. I'm so sorry.

Your grandson got hurt
because of my sister.

I'm terribly sorry.

The wound is not as serious as it seems.

Don't worry about it.

Still, he needs to concentrate
on his studies.

I'll take good care of him.

Ji-hoon.

I'll tell Min to take you
to the doctor regularly.

Get well soon.

I'm so sorry, ma'am.

I'm sorry.

I need to head to the police station now.

Ji-hoon, rest up.
I'll see you again later.

Yes, of course.

-I'm sorry.
-Get well soon.

Bye.

You better stay away from her.

Her sister is a cop, so imagine
how precarious her life is.

I will.

What happened today
will never happen again.

I really hope not.

You can go now.

I'm sorry we had to meet
under these circumstances.

I'll guide her better.

Don't worry about it.

I don't need your guidance.
I'm good on my own.

By the way, I only heard
that it was school violence.

Will Min have to answer questions
during the investigation?

Who are the offenders?

They were born evil.

I should've put them behind bars.

-Hey.
-The offenders are

so-called bullies from our school.

Min and Ji-hoon were trying
to stop them from bullying other kids.

Ji-hoon's grandmother says

that she'll settle
for paying the hospital bills,

but we don't know
what the police will say.

The police said they might call Min
to hear about what happened.

I'll check that
with the patrol station in charge.

Right. I hear you're a police officer.

Why don't you come
and give a special career lecture?

Sure. I'd be glad to help.

I'll see you around.

All right. Have a good night.

See you tomorrow.

Isn't he awesome?

You're such an embarrassment.

ESTABLISHING LAW AND ORDER
RESPECTING HUMANITY

DEAR PROF. KWON
FROM YOUR NO. 1 FAN

Was this really sent to Kwon?

Yes. Look here.

The prison name, inmate name,
and inmate number were all written here.

You've got to be kidding me.

This is not a good time
with the Killing Vote and all.

If this gets out,
Inmate 0512 will have to be transferred.

Well...

I'm just worried.

They'll select a new commissioner soon,
so there might be an audit.

Everything you've done for him...

Some people will get the wrong idea.

You're right.

I've been quite nice to Inmate 0512.

Sir.

He's a murderer.

Those who got human blood on their hands

never change.

You should just get rid of him.

Hi, Hyun. It's been a while.

I was so surprised to see you
with Superintendent Kim.

Why didn't you say you joined the unit?

Let's skip the small talk
or we'll upset each other.

Give me Gaetal's contact.

Why would I have that?

I heard you gave it to other reporters.

I know you heard everything
from Gaetal in advance.

Forget it.

If you don't have his contact,
tell me how to reach him.

Hyun, you're still so cute.

This is why working with you
was so much fun.

Fun?

Did you say "fun"?

My gosh.

I guess scumbag reporters think

it's fun to make a person
look like a traitor for a scoop.

Speaking of which,

what did I do that was so wrong?

It's a fact that Min Ji-young

led a DDoS attack
against the election committee.

And you were the one who got mad
about your superiors covering it up.

All of my stories are based on facts.

You revealed my real name!

Thanks to that, my team leader was fired
and I was the scapegoat.

But you also got a promotion.

Shouldn't we call it even?

About the Killing Vote,

it seems to be bringing
all our enemies from the past together.

I think there was something
between your leader and Min Ji-young too.

Do you know anything about it?

You know what?

Thanks to scumbag reporters,
my arresting skills have improved.

So let's call it even.

Now, tell me how you reached Gaetal.

Let go! I don't know anything. Let go!

Then, who sent the video of my leader
at the prison to Gaetal?

Do you want me to go through
your company's server?

Investigate it then
instead of assaulting me!

You.

You stabbed the police in the back,

and I will never let that slide.

I swear I will shake you down.

I know you're doing this
because you can't find evidence.

That psycho...

THE TRUTH BEHIND THE CAR EXPLOSION

DELETE

YOUR INBOX IS EMPTY

This one's good.

It's almost too sweet though.

This.

Explain it.

I took the photo myself.

It's a letter sent to Kwon Seok-joo.

What I want to know is

when

and where you got it.

Since Inmate 0512 was transferred here,

he's received tons of letters.

"What Inmate 0512 did wasn't murder."

"It's technically self-defense."

Bullshit letters like that.

Since this was such a big case
and got a lot of attention,

the warden made us
inspect his mail for the first time.

Because he didn't want
to be held responsible

for any weird letter he could get.

That's how we found

his number one fan.

Number one fan?

NO. 1 FAN

One letter per month.

This person's been sending letters
for years without fail.

At first, I thought it was
just another psycho.

But since the letters kept coming in,

I started to take a closer look
at this Number One Fan's letters.

Just a nice big sum. No more, no less.

Are you suggesting a deal right now?

Between us civil servants?

Yes. And only in cash.

I'm sure you know how it works.

Did you think I'd say yes to that?

Once you read them,

you'll know why I'm doing this.

Come on.

Park Chul-min,
you're under arrest for violating

Criminal Act, Article 316
and Postal Service Act, Article 48,

for unlawful possession
of someone else's postal mail.

You'll be charged with theft too.

I'll take the letters as evidence.

Wait. This is excessive force.
My lawyer will--

My bones. Fine.

Just buy me one more piece of cake, then.

I was going to give them to you anyway.

I'm sorry, sir.

#GAETALTV
#KIM MU-CHAN

#CHAE DO-HEE

Why are you still here?

Calling it even.

What?

Someone messed with me
and wants to call it even,

so I'm looking for a way
to mess with her too.

You specialize in data analysis, right?

JUSTICE, INNOCENT, DEVILS

EVE, BURN THE UTERUS, JUSTICE, TREND

SOCIETY, GROUP, SIN...

JUSTICE, INNOCENT, DEVIL,
PROFESSOR, SINNERS...

The letters were sent
from different places in the country.

Every single one of them.

Why do you think Number One Fan is Gaetal?

Listen to this.

"To Professor Kwon Seok-joo.

Apparently, for some people,

pleasure is what decides right from wrong.

And these people use wrongful methods

to maximize their pleasure,
which I find ironic."

"Just like the news I watched today."

These perverted criminals committed

something they shouldn't have.
It's disgusting.

I wonder what punishment
you would have given

to the criminals I saw...

I thought to myself you'd stuff
their dirty money into their throats.

Imagining you revealing the true colors
of those evil beings to the people

makes me feel better.

"I'm glad your standards of good and evil

always align with mine.

From your Number One Fan."

"Stuff their money into their throats."

"Revealing the true colors."

Bae Gi-chul?

Now, here comes the next one.

"His sin was to never doubt Eve

and to sow his seeds in her womb.

So I'm going to burn
the uterus of this evil Eve."

Uhm Eun-gyeong died from poisoning,

but her lower body was completely
destroyed during the explosion.

Does this mean this lunatic

has been sharing his murder plans
with Kwon Seok-joo in advance?

Number One Fan is, without a doubt,

Gaetal.

By the way,
isn't something off about his letters?

The first page is just a greeting.

On the second page,
he describes his murder plan.

But the overall flow isn't natural.

There are some words missing.

These letters are missing some pages
in the middle.

We should find out
if this was Kwon Seok-joo's doing

or Park Chul-min's.

If someone did that
knowing the letters would get out,

and if the targets were written on them,

it must be Kwon Seok-joo.

DEVIL

NO. 1 FAN

I will kill the devils who
were deemed innocent for you.

Kwon Seok-joo.

It seems

there's something he wants from us.

Hello.

Hello, sir.

Hello.

He has asthma caused by collapsed lung.

Has he been getting treatment?

A pretty good doctor
has been coming by regularly

to check up on him

and give him prescriptions.

He had a meeting with you every week.

Do other inmates get this benefit too?

Why do I feel like I'm being interrogated?

It's just a formality,

so please don't take it personally.

I think I can take it from here.

Are you asking me

to leave now?

This investigation is confidential.

Damn it.

Calm down.

And keep a neutral pose.

Don't stay too close or too far.

If you seem too aggressive, Kwon
will notice that and use it against you.

No need to bow down to him.

Remember. He's the one

who invited you here.

THE 13TH ONE WAS WRONG

It's nice to listen to it.

Thank you.

Gaetal may have scribbled
on your wall a bit,

but he didn't make a huge mess.

It had good natural lighting.

It was a very nice house.

You must be familiar

with these letters.

You've violated the Privacy Act.

Given the severity,
you could even get a prison sentence.

I just found them in the prison trash can.

But you just admitted

that they're yours.

These letters Gaetal sent
under the alias "Number One Fan"

describe in detail how the victims
of the Killing Vote would be executed.

However,

some pages are missing.

I'm suspecting the targets

were written on them.

You were just playing innocent, right?

You actually know Gaetal's

next target, don't you?

There were no specific names on it.

They had the news stories
that made him angry.

If you try to guess using that,

you may be able to find his next target.

You're right.
There was information about his targets.

Where are they?

The missing pages.

You'll never find them.

-But why--
-That way,

the police will realize they need me,
and they'll negotiate with me.

In that case...

Detective Kim Mu-chan.

Don't just try to get
the information from me.

Get me out of here.

This is an official proposal.

On the condition of receiving
a special pardon,

I will cooperate with your investigation

on the Killing Vote.

Visiting time has ended.

It was a pleasure talking with you,

Lieutenant Joo Hyun.

Inmate 0512.

I put the letters in order,

and this is the part
that describes the method in detail.

"Since the victim had to suffer
the pain of suffocation,

the best way to punish him

would be to inflict the same pain on him."

"The pain of suffocation" probably means

that the victim was suffocated to death.

Once again, the judiciary of this country
took the perpetrator's side,

a sex offender,

and implicitly allowed
the systematic culture of rape.

Of course, I do realize the system
is essential in this country, but...

Systematic?

The reason why sex crimes
are often overlooked in Korea

is that most of the relationships
in this society are highly vertical.

Comparing your boss to your parents

or calling each other with your job titles
shows it's all about power.

"Director," "Senior," "Teacher."

Calling people by these titles

gives you the feeling
that you cannot mess with them.

There are definitely
a lot of heinous sex criminals

who cunningly get away with their crimes
thanks to legal loopholes.

And for some groups of people,
it's even easier.

And Number One Fan
said this country needed that group.

It's the military.

THE KILLING VOTE

It's nice to see you,

Kim Mu-chan.

Start narrowing down
Kwon Seok-joo's associates

to those who might be Gaetal.

Gaetal must be one of them.

Hello, my fellow citizens.

The person you'll be voting for today is

the so-called Captain Oh.

That bitch put me in such a bind
when she suddenly died!

Superintendent Kim Mu-chan.

Do you really want to save
a scumbag like that?
