FLOWER OF EVIL

LATE SUMMER, 1997

BAEK HEE-SEONG

I don't really remember.

After receiving my report card...

I just wanted to die.

I don't remember...

anything after that.

But it was because of me...

that the puppy died, right?

I'm so sorry.

Hee-seong.

How about you go sit
in the lobby for a while?

I'd like to talk to your mother alone.

It's all my fault.

He's usually not like this at all,

but he always behaves strangely
whenever his grades come out.

Hyun-soo.

Do Hyun-soo.

Let's draw something together.

Here.

Are you the kid?

The kid who dropped that brick
from the rooftop?

Do you know why you did what you did?

Yes.

It's depression brought on
by academic stress.

You were curious what will happen.

Just like throwing a pebble
into a tranquil pond,

you hurled one at your peaceful life.

You were curious

how the world will reverberate,
with you at the very center.

Am I not right?

Why would I?

Because you don't know how to have fun.

See, you've never met people like you.

You must've been quite lonely until now.

Do Hyun-soo.

Do Hyun-soo is here.

What brings you here without a word?

I had something to tell you
and Director Baek.

I'm a little tired tonight.

I'd like you to come back some other time.

I know everything.

Know everything? About what?

About everything that happened here.

What?

Do you truly wish to turn us away?

EPISODE 13

Don't just stand there. Sit.

You cancelled on us for
a sudden business trip,

so how come you're here now,
without so much as a word?

And you came together, too.

Since we were supposed to
have dinner together,

I expected you to be at home.

So what do you know, and how much?

What are you hiding, and how much?

In other words,

you know everything, do you?

About your husband?

If you do, then what's
the meaning of you coming here?

Does this mean you'll accept everything?

First of all, I'd like to say
that whatever happens,

I'll forever be on his side.

All right.

It looks like us four will have
a lot to get through tonight.

There's not just four of us here.

What?

There's one more
in this house, isn't there?

Where is he?

2001, ILSIN UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
KENYA OVERSEAS MEDICAL VOLUNTEERS

We weren't on good terms to begin with.

That night, too. We were
in a row over the car accident,

and there was an unforeseen accident.

We've long given up hope
on him gaining consciousness.

Every time his condition deteriorated,

we administered drugs for the
sole purpose of keeping him alive,

which damaged his kidneys.

As a result, he's had
several organ failures.

In other words,

I wouldn't be surprised if his heart
stopped beating in ten minutes.

We've now shown

all the cards we have.

I'll give you my word right here,

that I'll have your husband

live as Baek Hee-seong to the end.

So I hope you won't live in anxiety.

No.

You've got it wrong.

Have I?

Ji-won only wanted to

see the truth for herself.

The purpose of our visit here today

isn't to receive promise from you.

It's almost time.

Time for what?

Time to expose

the identity of the accomplice.

Go over there.

Now you tell us,

since we've all gathered here
as you told us to.

Do you honestly think that I know?

About the identity of this "accomplice"?

It's 10 o'clock.

If I hadn't come here today,

I'd have arrived at Gapyeong by now.

And?

Other than Ji-won and I,
the only person who knows this...

is you, Director Baek.

What are you trying to tell us?

You know already.

You have your chance.

You mustn't fail.

Tonight at 10 p.m., at Gapyeong...

If Yeom Sang-cheol shows up
at the holiday house,

it'll only mean that

you were the one who tipped him off.

If I may add to that,
the police are currently

staking out near that very holiday house.

Yeom Sang-cheol!

Drop your weapon and
hands above your head!

On the day of my trade
with Yeom Sang-cheol,

Yeom was offered twice the amount

I handed him, for my head.

The only person who knew about
my trade with him that night,

as well as the exact amount
I'd handed him...

was you, Director,
who prepared that money for me.

You'd wanted me to kill
Park Kyung-choon myself,

and disappear.

You were afraid that...

you'd be busted, not my identity.

Because...

you, Director,

are the accomplice of the
Yeonju Serial Killings.

What the hell are you on about?

Sit down.

If I see any hint of violence,

I'm going to exercise
my every right as a police officer.

You...

Is that why you also came here, with him?

As soon as I secure any evidence
that suggest your ties with Yeom,

I'll have to ask you to
come to the station with me.

DETECTIVE CHOI JAE-SUB

Hello, Detective Choi.

I think you got it wrong.

I'm just the caretaker.

The Director asked me to
get the place ready tonight for his son,

who'll be coming to work here.

Those gardening scissors?

I only meant to trim the fruit trees here.

I see.

All right.

I can't believe this.

This situation, I mean.

How could you take me for a serial killer?

What did Director Choi say?

Director Baek sent a caretaker,

to take care of me for the night.

I guess I underestimated you.

It wasn't me.

Hyun-soo, it wasn't me.

Other than you...

there's no other candidate.

How should I prove to you
that it's not me?

Ji-won.

How could you join him on this,
as a police officer?

This is abusing your authority
to blackmail me,

when you've no evidence against me.

What you're doing now is bending
the facts to fit your assumptions,

that I am the culprit.

No.

All of this...

is telling us that you are the culprit.

I'm sure of it.

It's me.

You're the one you've been looking for.

From this point onwards,

you'll be walking right into the trap

I've set up for you,

Do Hyun-soo.

It was from my lips that
the secret got out.

What do you mean, the secret is out?

The breaker must have tripped
because of the rain earlier.

Let me go take a look.

You have your chance.

Tonight at 10 p.m., at my holiday house.

It's me, Baek Hee-seong.

Save your hello,

and just answer me.

Did you ever...

leak info about us to Do Hyun-soo or not?

Are you crazy? Do you think I...

Oh.

Did you?

Well, I didn't say it directly,

but I hinted I was
commissioned to kill him.

Mr. Yeom.

You just do nothing.

Stay put, is what I'm saying.

What did you just say?

We don't need you anymore.

What are you doing?

Do Hyun-soo laid a trap for us,

to catch both rabbits.

Trap?

Think about it.

Who gave us the chance
to get rid of Do Hyun-soo

for good?

Think about who laid the trap

and who's walking into it.

Then you have your answer.

The moment Yeom Sang-cheol shows up,

he'll know you were involved.

That's what he'd wanted to verify.

Then as long as we stop
Yeom from going there, right?

Then there'll be no issues.

That won't be enough to
stop his suspicions.

Do Hyun-soo, I mean.

Hold on.

This means he has no evidence as of yet.

We'll have to prepare to greet our guest.

What do you mean?

Since he has no evidence,
he'll try and force out

a confession from Dad.

If that's how he'll be,

we'll have to prepare a gift for him, too.

I'D LIKE MY SEVERANCE PAY

AND MY HUSH-MONEY PAYMENT
IN MY ACCOUNT BY NEXT WEEK

You said the nurse is mute
because she's hearing-impaired.

The culprit spoke on the phone with Yeom.

It doesn't make sense to suspect her
as being involved with Do Min-seok

or Yeom Sang-cheol.

What I want to say is,

the secret is already out.

There could be others
who made a mistake like me.

For example, there's that journalist.

He knows your secret, too.

-And your sister, too.
-Mother.

You're shielding Director Baek.

Aren't you?

No.

I swear I'm not.

No.

You know something, Mother.

What is it?

Don't you trust me?

Why should I trust you?

Right.

There's no reason for you to trust me.

I'll trigger the fuse box.

When the lights go out,

use the fuse box as an excuse
to step out of the room

and buy some time.

Meanwhile, you take out the candle, Mom.

It's taking him quite some time.

I should go get the candles.

Something's not right.

What is?

Something's bothering me,

but I'm not sure...

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

Hyun-soo.

I've considered you my own until now.

I mean it.

Whatever you thought of me,

I've never once wondered

or wanted to know.

Shouldn't you go check on your son?

What? Why?

All the medical devices are
electronically powered.

He may be in a serious
condition right now.

Well, that's...

He'll be fine, since we have batteries.

They're good for up to six hours.

What are you doing? Sit back down.

We should finish where we left off.

I'm sorry.

Ever since I first saw you
in fourth grade,

my heart's stayed the same.

Why did he hold onto this all this time?

He's such a fool.

I don't want you doing this anymore.

I don't want you to take on
any more enemies.

Whether Director Baek Man-woo
is the culprit or not,

from today onwards,
he'll harbor enmity towards you.

Just leave it to the police now.

I need to meet with that nurse.

Didn't you just hear me?

Mother is right.

We need to know how much the nurse knows,

and how much the secret
has leaked, and to who.

It's not a good idea for you to
go any further than this.

I want to get out of this mess

as soon as I can.

He's a serial killer,
who finds joy in killing people.

And he's around me.

If his animosity...

reaches you,

and Eun-ha...

Whenever I think about that,

I get so scared.

Do you know what our station's
arrest rate is, this year?

It's 120 percent.

We caught the guy we missed last year.

We've been catching every one
of those murdering bastards.

As long as we catch Yeom,
things will unravel.

Because Yeom Sang-cheol is
our witness, and our evidence.

Serial killers are people, too.

So don't be scared.

Once we have him,

you'll be ashamed that
you were actually scared of him.

We're stronger, all right?

It's strange.

When you say that, somehow I'm convinced.

MOTHER-IN-LAW

It's Eun-ha.

When are you coming?

We'll be there soon.

After I count to ten?

Just wait another ten minutes.

Hmpf!

That means you're far from being here.

Very far.

No, we'll be there soon.

Hurry up! Hurry!

GREEN MENTAL ASYLUM

"Stay put?"

They think I'm their pawn, do they?

GREEN MENTAL ASYLUM

She's good to go today, right?

Come on. She has no family. It's not hard.

Hey.

Don't you remember
all the money you took from me?

But that's for keeping an eye on her.

Bastard.

It's designer.

Who is she, anyway?

My insurance.

It's been a long time,

Ms. Jung Mi-sook.

Where is Mi-sook?

Thanks to her husband,
Park Kyung-choon's report,

we have records of her traces

right up to her disappearance
on May 11, 2002.

The body of his final victim,
Jung Mi-sook, was never found.

JUNG MI-SOOK

Why is my name Jung Mi-sook?

Hello?

Is this Mr. Baek Hee-seong?

Yes, who is this?

Your wife's name is Cha Ji-won,

a police officer at Gangsu Station.

Am I right?

And your daughter is Baek Eun-ha.

She goes to the Little Bird Kindergarten.

Am I right?

Who are you?

I'm a fan.

I'm very fond of your works,
Mr. Baek Hee-seong.

You...

How did you...

How did you know about my family?

Of course I should know,
as a fan of yours.

You're so sensitive.

PUBLIC PHONE AT MAKMUN SAMGEORI

PUBLIC PHONE AT MAKMUN SAMGEORI

I'm sorry to call you so late at night.

May I check the dash cam in your vehicle?

I'm on holiday right now,

so I'll give you call on this number
once I'm back in Seoul.

Hide-and-seek.

I can see you,

but you can't see me.

Is this Mr. Baek Hee-seong?

Did you hear about the
Gakyeong-ri Village Chief murder?

Your wife's name is Cha Ji-won,

a police officer at Gangsu Station.

Am I right?

Do you know why he died?

Because he wouldn't mind his own.

Honey.

Yes?

What are you doing? You're spilling it.

Ah!

Oops, sorry.

What's on your mind?

Don't come here!
You'll get it on your clothes.

Daddy!

I want to go with this one today.

Sure, Eun-ha. I won't be long.

Let's see.

-So it's this one today, is it?
-Yeah.

Where should I put it on?

Here.

So pretty.

Daddy, where were you this early morning?

-Hmm?
-I woke up to go to the toilet

and I saw you going somewhere last night.

Did you go somewhere last night?

Where?

Well, you see...

You got a call. You should take it.

Sure.

Hello, sir.

What?

I need to go.

Sure, bye.

Have a nice day, Mommy.

But that's not under our jurisdiction.

All right, I'll head
straight to the scene.

Eun-ha, look at me.

Did you ever talk to a stranger recently?

No.

Don't answer without thinking.

Um...

No.

Don't follow strangers.

Repeat after me.

Don't follow people you don't know.

Adults never ask children for help.

Mom, Dad and Granny never asks

other people to pick Eun-ha up.

Good girl.

Daddy.

Did you hear my stomach growl?

What?

Let's see.

Should I make you egg soup?

-Yes!
-I was picking up rubbish.

Okay, and?

There was a scarf, so I tugged on it...

But it wouldn't budge.
So I dug the ground, and...

And there was a body?

-Yes, there was.
-Thank you, yes.

-You're here.
-Jae-sub.

I'm really sorry about last night.

Let's talk later.

Did you hear about the body?

I did, yes.

I'm Woo Han-soo, Producer of Case File.

I'm a big fan of your show.

-Let's all have a seat.
-Sure.

I'll get straight to the point.
We want you on our show as a panelist.

But why me?

Because of that YouTube live
you did, dummy.

Mr. Kim.

You were truly awesome.

Was I?

First, the report
on the accomplice's voice,

now, an undercover report
on the human trafficking.

How can you always be
a step ahead of the police?

Well, after working hard,

I've had many calls from informants, so...

A fortune teller once told me
I've many people helping me in my life.

A body was discovered on a
mountain near Makmun-dong.

I think you should take this one, Mr. Kim.

Me?

Why Moo-jin?

The victim's left thumbnail is missing.

Her left thumbnail is missing.

How are we supposed to interpret this?

Right after Yeom broke free...

The bastard's mocking us.

What's for sure is

it's thrown us off with our investigation.

-Has the victim been identified?
-Not yet.

From how we didn't find her
belongings around her,

she seems to have been
murdered somewhere else.

What is that?

What do you mean?

That it may not be Director Baek?

While you were meeting
with Director Baek last night...

someone was watching me, in secret.

Did you call the police?

They said they can't do anything
because nothing's happened as of yet.

To tell you the truth...

I received a strange call last night.

A strange call?

Yes.

What's for sure is that
it wasn't Director Baek Man-woo.

But...

his voice.

It reminds me of the accomplice's voice
Moo-jin had disclosed to the public.

Did you guys hear about it?

About what?

The body that was found
in the mountains this morning.

It's missing a left thumbnail.

NEVER, AND I DON'T HAVE ANYONE
TO TELL ANY OF THIS

DON'T BE SO RUDE TO ME!
DON'T YOU EVER TOUCH ME!

ACT LIKE THIS ONE MORE TIME AND
I'LL TELL DIRECTOR AND MADAM

And her notebook ends here.

It seems to be a conversation
she had with her murderer

-before she was killed.
-Is that really hers?

We only found her fingerprints
from the notebook.

Considering the fact that
she's hearing-impaired, it means

she was acquainted with the murderer.

What could the "Director"
and "Madam" mean?

Yes, sir.

One moment.

The victim's been identified.

Unit 303, Rose Villa,
Makmun-2-dong, Makmun-gu,

Seoul. Park Soon-young, is it?

What?

Yes, all right.

We have a fingerprint.

From the tape that bound her.

From the tape that was used in the crime?

Then that's 99.9 percent!

Right.

What about the fingerprint analysis?

They put it through AFIS right now.
As soon as the result is out,

he will verify it visually himself.

Detective Cha and Lim,
head to Forensics right now

for the results.

Detective Choi, you head to
Park Soon-young's residence.

Yes, sir.

ACT LIKE THIS ONE MORE TIME
AND I WILL TELL DIRECTOR AND MADAM

BODY FOUND IN THE MOUNTAINS
NEAR MAKMUN-DONG

THE LEFT THUMBNAIL
OF THE BODY IS MISSING...

Director.

Here are the application forms of the
medical volunteers, from 1999 to 2002.

Thank you.

An unregistered fingerprint?

Yes.

It's not like we have half a fingerprint.

The fact that the system
wasn't able to find a match

when we have all its characteristics means

it's not on the DB.

In other words,

the culprit doesn't have a resident ID?

That's right.

He's either younger than 17 years old,

or could be someone who's on the streets

without a registered address
and a resident's ID.

Perhaps that's why the criminal

wasn't so cautious about his fingerprints.

I knew it.

No wonder things were going so smoothly.

Hello, Jae-sub.

Do you really know
nothing about Park Soon-young?

Why?

Park Soon-young worked as a housekeeper.

Want to know where she worked?

Could it be...

That's right.

The residence of the Ilsin
University Hospital's Director.

Your in-laws, in other words.

Daddy, where were you this early morning?

I need to meet with that nurse.

I'll call you back later.

Ho-jun, give me the key to the car.

Sure. But why?

There's something I must check urgently.

The prank caller from this morning
is Do Min-seok's accomplice?

Are you sure?

I think so, yes.

Why would he call you?

From how he'd given me
Jung Mi-sook's keychain, too...

I can feel his obsession toward me.

But why did he show up again,
all of a sudden?

After 18 years?

Serial killers can't stop themselves.

Perhaps he was in a state
where he wasn't able to

commit crimes for 18 years.

For example, he may have been
in jail all this time.

Like the case in Hwaseong.

Look into it for me.

See if there's anyone who was
arrested after 2002,

and who was released only recently.

All right.

And you, Hae-soo.

Stay at Moo-jin's place for now,

until we're sure you can be safe.

You've seen his face.

You may be his next target.

Moo-jin, promise me.

That you won't ever leave my sister alone.

Yes, I promise.

Meanwhile, I'm going to
meet Yeom Sang-cheol.

What?

I'm going to approach him

through Yeom Sang-cheol.

Hurry up.

Come in.

Have a seat.

Can I really meet my family here?

You don't remember anything?

Nothing?

I just...

I only remember walking and walking.

I didn't know why I was walking,

but I was.

Ever since then...

I was sent here and there
until I ended up at the asylum.

Tsk. Your life has been
a rocky path, hasn't it?

Thank you,

for finding me my family.

No need to thank me,

because I'm getting paid for it.

You, Jung Mi-sook...

are a very important person.

To all of us.

FINGERPRINT MATCH

MOM

Mom, it's me. Ji-won.

My husband won't be able to
pick up Eun-ha from kindy today.

Could you pick her up instead?

The body's been found.

The police will call you soon.

You just need to keep up the good act.

You're not weak at all.

You gave birth to me,

you killed me,

and you brought me back to life.

To me, Mom...

you're God.

No.

You can't meet Yeom Sang-cheol.

He wants to kill you.

Exactly.

So he won't be able to ignore my call.

In order to be paid, he needs to kill me.

But isn't this too dangerous?

As long as we can lure him out,

we can have the police's assistance.

Yeom Sang-cheol?

My name is Jung Mi-sook.

Are you perhaps my family?

Who did you say you were?

Ms. Jung Mi-sook?

Yes.

Mr. Yeom went to the bathroom just now.

Where are you?

I see a lot of trees.

Hello?

The number you're calling
cannot be reached at this time...

You're back.

Where were you this morning?

What?

Were you at Makmun-dong?

How did you know?

A body was discovered on
a mountain near Makmun-dong.

The victim is Park Soon-young.

She's hearing-impaired and
worked as a housekeeper.

Her primary job was to care for
a patient in a coma.

Her employer was...

Director Baek Man-woo.

We found the culprit's fingerprint from

the tape that was used to bind her.

And the fingerprint...

belongs to you.

What time did Ms. Park Soon-young
leave the house?

Around about 7:30.

I even called a cab for her,

because she said she wasn't feeling well.

The CCTV on our street

needs to record Park Soon-young
leaving our house.

Take a cab,

and get off in front of
Park Soon-young's place.

It's not hard, is it?

NEVER, AND I DON'T HAVE
ANYONE TO TELL ANY OF THIS

These are the final words of
Park Soon-young's conversation.

We suspect she was talking
with her murderer.

NEVER, AND I DON'T HAVE
ANYONE TO TELL ANY OF THIS

ACT LIKE THIS ONE MORE TIME AND
I WILL TELL DIRECTOR AND MADAM

She mentions "Director" and "Madam".

By "madam,", she's referring
to you, correct?

Yes.

It seems the culprit and you
are acquainted, Ms. Gong.

Do you have an idea of who he may just be?

Ms. Gong Mi-ja?

Yes.

I do.

There is just one person.

Ho-jun, are you with Ji-won right now?

She rushed out with her face pale

after a call from you, sir.

Once you get in touch with her,
call me right away.

Is something up?

You know, don't you?

Choi Jae-sub.

What are you and Detective Cha hiding?

I think I've given you enough chances.

Choi Jae-sub.

Tell me. What is it?

Sir, I...

I think it's time I tell you
a most unbelievable story.

What... Are you telling me
to believe that?

But...

But how can Detective Cha's
husband be Do Hyun-soo?

It wasn't me.

Come to the station with me.

But it wasn't me.

Come to the station,

and tell the truth.

I...

We're going to do our best
to prove your innocence.

Because you are now

the prime suspect of this murder case.

I need to arrest you.

I need to cuff you, honey.

So cooperate.

Please.

I really...

loved your mother.

And I believed your mother loved me, too.

But the person she loved
was just an illusion.

She couldn't accept the real me.

In the end, she abandoned you too
and left me.

Love is...

extremely treacherous.

It's cunning.

You're deluded into thinking that
it'll solve everything,

until it betrays you
at the most crucial moment.

Remember this, Hyun-soo.

In life,

if you ever find yourself
wanting to believe in someone...

It means you're growing weak.

No more, no less.

Honey.

Tell me.

Do you believe in me?

What?

Or...

Or do you harbor the slightest
suspicion in your heart

that I may have just killed someone?

Even you won't believe in me,

so who would, in this world?

-Yes, Jae-sub.
-Where are you?

I'm at the atelier,

with my husband.

I'll take him to the station.

What are you doing?

From now on, I...

I won't trust anyone.

The CCTV. Check the CCTV.

There it is.

One moment.

Go to the monitor.

Plug out all the cables from the recorder.

There are four in total.

FLOWER OF EVIL

What's important here is that

one of our colleagues is
currently being held hostage.

Even if Do Hyun-soo claims he's innocent,

it doesn't change the fact
he's wanted for murder.

Do Hyun-soo is already guilty.

Will things really go as we want it to?

We'll be seeing each other again,

so wish me luck instead of
bidding me farewell forever.

I didn't want to resort to this,

but you're always making me so anxious.

You're a variable that's uncontrollable.
