My parents faced such an unfortunate death.

I ought to catch the culprit,

even if the culprit is me.

That's not my case anymore.

That case hasn't been closed yet.

The investigation was sufficient.

We didn't find any evidence.

Why do you give up that easily?

Things might have completely changed compared to before.

What things?

If you bring me in as a witness,

I will answer your questions to the best I can.

(Episode 25)

Anything yet?

It hasn't been that long since you've handed it to me.

Come here.

Let's see. Eun Hong Goo,

Park Jung Sook, the dog.

We failed to identify the culprit,

but that hammer is the murder weapon.

Hold on.

Wasn't this hammer cremated with the dog's body?

The culprit hid the clothes and the murder weapon...

inside the dog's stomach. Just like this. Like this.

Where's the dog carcass?

It's cremated.

Both the blood and the prints have disappeared in the fire.

This has no efficacy as evidence.

Maybe she took the hammer out...

when she found the dog.

Right. It could be problematic when she's the witness.

How could've she explained it if this hammer...

came out of the dog's stomach?

Or maybe she wanted to preserve the hammer just the way it was.

It's a trophy for a perfect crime.

Kang Woo Joon has been prosecuted, right?

I wonder how long he'll stay in jail.

His sentence may be reduced...

because of what happened to his wife.

Here.

If he gets a good lawyer, he could plead insanity.

He had a grudge against criminals...

who received reduced sentences and were discharged early.

The fact that he may also get a short sentence...

is quite ironic.

How's the place where you got hit?

It's still a bit sore, but it's all right.

I was only worried that Det. Woo's disguise might be revealed.

I had no idea that Kang would come out from there.

What gave me the goosebumps was the fact that...

he moved to the house in front of Kwon's a year ago.

Assailants are forbidden to live near their victims,

but we can't do anything about the victims living near them.

Imagining how Kang spent a year in that house...

makes me feel sad.

(Tae Seok)

Hi.

Eun Seon Jae visited the bakery, right?

Yes.

Did she buy a cake?

How do you know that?

You haven't left yet?

No. Why?

Why are you digging into this?

Is Eun Seon Jae still bugging you?

You're disappointed in me,

aren't you?

Disappointed?

This is far beyond disappointment.

You know why I stuck beside you.

I watched you live in guilt...

because you failed to protect a witness.

That's when I realized that you were a true detective.

But to find out that you switched witnesses...

for your sister's sake.

I realized that every single human is selfish.

Life is such a dirty thing.

I was depressed.

But...

she's your family.

If I were in your shoes, I would've done the same.

And I don't think I would've been able to keep that...

locked up in my heart for a decade.

And most of all,

you tried with all your might.

The people you saved...

and the criminals you put behind bars...

were all done by you.

So...

don't live in guilt anymore.

Thanks.

- Mun Gi. - Yes?

What is this?

This is the murder weapon...

for Eun Seon Jae's adoptive parents' murder.

Where did you get this?

It was inside a cake box and was placed in front of my house.

Both Eun Hong Goo and Park Jung Sook's DNAs...

are on that hammer.

I believe someone delivered it.

I'll trace it.

But...

will you be all right?

- About what? - You suspected her first.

If Eun Seon Jae is the culprit,

that means Bae Yeo Wool...

is a murderer who killed her own parents.

Will you lead this investigation yourself?

What brings you here at this hour?

It's better to just turn yourself in.

Why should I when I haven't done anything wrong?

The cake box.

I heard you bought a cake from Tae Hee's bakery.

She begged me to visit, so I did.

And she was the one who gave me a cake.

I wondered how great it tasted for her to act like that,

but it wasn't that great.

But why do you ask?

You should know that I always see things through.

I already know that.

Do you really want me to take on this case?

That's exactly why I asked you.

I want you to take this to the end.

What will be waiting for me at the end?

What do you mean?

I just want to see, that's all.

See?

Let's see whether I really am the culprit or not.

Let's see if I am truly a monster or not.

And also,

let's see what I mean to you.

I told you.

I always see things through to the end.

I'll catch the culprit.

Even if that's you.

I knew it.

I'll be waiting then.

(Kwon Ji Sook)

(Kwon Ji Sook)

(Kwon Ji Sook)

Hey.

This was originally assigned...

to Nambu Police Station's Violent Crimes Unit.

But we found similarities to the teller serial murder case,

so we transferred it to you.

The case in 1998, where bank tellers were murdered, right?

The culprit only targeted tellers,

so even 20 years ago,

there was a huge fuss causing business obstructions.

There's an embargo on this case ordered by the commissioner general,

so let's resolve this before the press gets in.

The victim's name is Kwon Ji Sook, a 51-year-old.

She lived alone since her husband passed away a year ago.

She's a contract employee at Dongsin Bank.

She quit working for a while after getting married,

then recently started working again.

And the way her body is situated...

with her valuables before her is...

just like the teller serial murder of 1998.

It's the same in that the culprit laid it out without taking anything.

Is the murder method the same?

Yes, just like the other incidents,

they struck the back of the victim's head many times.

We haven't found the weapon yet.

What about the duct tape on her?

There are no records of duct tapes used in past incidents.

Her uniform is still here.

The teller serial murderer always took the uniform.

Nambu Police Station thought that was weird,

so they called her family immediately.

According to Ms. Kwon's mother,

she kept her uniform from 20 years ago like a good luck charm.

It looks like the culprit took that one.

(Teller serial murder of 1998)

Are these 3 the victims from 1998?

Yes, there were three people who were killed,

and the one who survived a murder attempt was...

the one who was murdered this time, Ms. Kwon Ji Sook.

I've read the case file before too.

Before Ms. Kwon was murdered,

a friend from her work came over,

so the culprit got spooked and ran away.

I heard that's how she survived.

He's right. There is no other evidence left like the DNA,

but according to the testimony of Ms. Kwon...

and her friend, Yoo Jung Soo,

we characterized the culprit as a well-built male in his 50s.

Were there any suspects?

About 5 to 6 people were on the list of suspects...

according to the testimony and the suspects' whereabouts,

but we could not find the culprit.

They may have gotten frightened because we almost closed in on them.

The same crime did not break out after that time.

Okay. How does it look compared to the past incidents?

What I'm sure of is...

that I can see strong anger in the way they struck the victim.

They kept on striking her down even after she collapsed.

If they hold a grudge against the victim,

doesn't it mean this isn't related to the previous cases?

No, it just means that I can see their anger.

We cannot say that they're someone who holds a grudge against her.

I looked at the pictures...

and the incidents from 20 years ago were worse.

They struck the victims at least 50 times...

that their skulls were completely dented.

This case looks pretty bad, but it's not as bad as that.

I spotted hesitation wound too.

If they were in their 50s back then, they're in their 70s by now.

If this was done by the same culprit,

they might have lost their strength due to aging.

If they are a copycat,

they probably couldn't get the details right.

Anyway, it's hard to say which one it is.

The biggest difference in this case compared to the old ones is...

the duct tape on the victim's mouth, isn't it?

A serial murderer rarely changes their crime methods.

You're right. They tend to...

stick to the same successful pattern.

If we try to figure out why the crime scene was...

made to look like this,

we'll be able to find out if this is a copycat or the same culprit.

The victim's bloody fingerprints were found everywhere in the house.

She took out everything that she had hidden.

It looks like the culprit...

made the victim bring out all of it herself.

- I have jewelry too. - He could've acted like a robber...

as if he'll let her live if she gives him all the valuables.

Then he probably made her kneel down.

He probably wanted to enjoy seeing her beg for her life.

That means he gave false hope to the victims.

He pretended he'll let them live if they bring him money,

then brutally murdered them.

Why did he take it so far?

Because they won't scream if they think they have hope.

Were there any testimonies that heard a scream...

among the neighbors of the deceased victims?

You're right.

The time when Yoo Jung Soo saved Kwon Ji Sook was...

the only account of a scream.

That could be the reason why his crime method changed.

He lost her once because she screamed,

so he decided to use duct tape.

During the past incidents,

were his crime methods disclosed with the press?

We disclosed that the culprit always took...

the victim's uniform.

I looked through, and the details...

of the victim's posture and laying out the valuables...

were never leaked out.

Then there is no way...

of finding out the method unless it's the real culprit.

Then...

it means the same murderer from 1998 resumed his murder,

or it has to be a copycat crime of someone who knows him well...

or is related to him in any way.

We have to investigate around Kwon's life,

but we also have to find the real culprit from 20 years ago.

Start with the list of suspects from that time.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Hey, who was the detective in charge of this case?

It says the person in charge was Detective Park Ki Tae...

of Nambu Police Station.

Detective Park Ki Tae?

He quit 18 years ago.

And his partner?

Captain Jeon Chun Man.

Where's Detective Park Ki Tae?

I haven't heard that name in a while.

Oh, it must be that case from Nambu Police Station.

Why? Doesn't it have a lot in common with that old case?

Give me his number.

He's dead.

He kept on digging into that case and only that case,

then got demoted for excessive investigation.

He got demoted as a traffic officer,

but couldn't hold his temper, so he quit.

He said he'll open an indoor golf club with his severance pay,

then lost everything, his chronic disease got him.

His children never came around even after he fell ill,

so he passed away alone.

Then are you the only one who remembers that case?

There is no evidence or anything left from that case.

We tried hard to find the man in his 50s which the victim saw,

then reduced the suspects to five people...

and went after them for a year, but we never found anything.

Hand over everything you have to Detective Chae.

Do you think we didn't catch him out of incompetence and laziness?

I've done everything I can...

without sleeping or eating for a year to catch him.

Do you think it'll be different for you?

I'll give you the list of suspects and all the data I have. Good luck.

There are five suspects.

These are the people who quarreled with the tellers often,

whose alibis were uncertain on the day of the crime.

Do I have to meet you guys again at this age?

Chun Man, or Man Chun, that guy came to my office...

and kept on pestering me,

so I ended up getting fired.

Last night?

I babysat my grandchild. Why?

You can check with my daughter-in-law.

Hey honey.

Open your eyes.

Hey.

Where were you and what were you doing last night?

I was on a date.

I never thought I would get asked the same question after 20 years.

There was this guy who kept on running after me.

Jeon Chun Man. What is he up to nowadays?

I got divorced and got my hair pulled out...

by my wife at the time because of him. Goodness.

It looks like Captain Jeon went after them persistently.

There was a time when he was a passionate detective after all.

Why is he like that now?

The ones who are passionate are more likely to go corrupt too.

They had high expectations, so they get more disappointed.

Bring my son back.

Reveal the truth.

Bring my son back.

Reveal the truth.

Bring my son back.

(Hankyul Hospital Director Lee Soo Han)

Goodness, over 60 days?

I can tell that you tried very hard.

But do you usually provide first aid for that long?

We made a huge fuss because we wanted to save him.

He said his friend suddenly collapsed at school,

and Dae Woong called me.

Since our hospital is right in front of their school,

so we got there faster than the 911.

We tried everything we can...

to save the kid because he was my son's friend,

then they insist this was medical malpractice.

Goodness.

I should have just let him go with the 911.

I seriously regret having done a good deed.

Excuse me, detective.

If you have no questions for us, may we leave?

We have to be at the academy.

You don't have to ask him.

What would the kids know about it?

Go. You should be at your academy.

I'm not telling you this so that you can feel better,

but looking at the data objectively, I see no signs of malpractice.

That's exactly what I'm saying.

That ignorant woman's protest is...

destroying our hospital's image, and we're suffering greatly.

Please get rid of her somehow.

I understand how you feel, ma'am.

There is this thing called the assembly law.

There is separate legislation for assemblies and protests.

You are not allowed to hold a protest anywhere as you please.

(Outdoor Protest Registration)

You prepared a lot.

Even if you have permission, given the location of your protest,

your protest might obstruct the businesses of nearby shops.

If I am the only protester within the 20m-range,

this is legally acceptable.

Besides, which shop reported for disturbance?

(Consent Form)

If you think it's medical malpractice, file a lawsuit.

You're holding a protest because you know there might be no evidence.

Do you think...

this will change anything?

Life is already hard as it is. Let's just settle this quietly.

You want me to stop the protest, correct?

Then please fulfill my wish.

Let me meet with Detective Woo Tae Seok.

Ask him...

to hear my story just once.

Listen. If you have a favor to ask him,

you should go meet him. Why are you bothering me?

Is he the only detective in Korea?

I get it. He is a star detective. He is.

That is exactly why he doesn't have time to meet you.

If Detective Woo Tae Seok is willing to listen to my story,

I will stop the protest.

He's busy.

Get out. Out!

Get lost. Get out of here!

Scumbags. Because of you police, people thought I was a murderer.

Do you know how many times I had to move?

Get lost, you scumbags.

Things were just getting better. How dare you visit me again?

Jerks.

That happened to Ji Sook?

- Yes. - I thought she was doing well.

I wanted to hear...

a more detailed account of what had happened to her in 1998.

That is why I have called you.

Take a seat.

Is it the same guy?

We're not sure yet.

I looked over the case file.

Around 10pm, you stopped by Ms. Kwon's house.

That's when you had a scuffle with the culprit according to the file.

Before the incident, did you often stop by...

at her house?

Gosh, no.

We were just colleagues. We weren't that close either.

This loan was to expire, so I had to file for an extension,

but Ms. Kwon didn't get the borrower's signature.

I got the signature during the night and went there to hand it over.

You could have handed it to her in the office the next day.

I was to take my vacation starting the next day.

- I was in a hurry. - Vacation.

But I heard a scream from inside all of a sudden.

I opened the door in a hurry.

I ran inside because the door wasn't locked.

It's not easy to fight the culprit...

when you run in there without any preparation.

Well, I heard my colleague scream.

No man would just do nothing.

When you were fighting him, was the culprit wounded...

or suffer a serious injury?

When we were fighting, he jumped off from the veranda in the back.

He might have been injured then.

In a way, you saved Ms. Kwon's life.

After the incident, did you two stay in touch?

After that incident, she got married and moved to another bank.

I was transferred too. We've never met after that.

From her point of view, it's a horrendous incident.

Our meeting won't do any good.

During the 1998 incident, Go Yeon Hoo, Choi Sung Shik,

Kang Byung Joon, and Kim No Deok were the suspects.

Everyone's alibis for yesterday checked out.

As for Lee Sung Hak, Mr. Ban is locating him now.

Detective Park Ki Tae suspected Lee Sung Hak to the end, right?

Yes, at the time, his job and address remained unclear.

When he met with Lee, he sensed that Lee looked down on bank tellers.

Detective Park and Captain Jeon followed him for months.

I've looked into Ms. Kwon's finances and her acquaintances.

It's all clean.

After meeting up with the witness, Mr. Yoo Jung Soo,

I also met with other bank tellers at the branch she worked at.

Since she was kind and good-natured, she never fought with anyone.

Finances, grudges, or affairs. Nothing fits with her case.

Except for Lee Sung Hak, none of these old suspects...

seems suspicious.

No acquaintances of hers seem suspicious either.

What should we do? We have to catch this guy this time.

(Name: Lee Sung Hak)

I found him.

He's in a studio at Sanga Building in Wonseo-dong.

Let's go.

Where is everyone going?

If you're going somewhere, it means there's a serial murder.

What is this? Why did you put an embargo on it?

Come on, you can tell me that much. It's between us.

Us?

Our close relationship goes way back.

I was a witness to you first, and I became a victim next.

After that, I was a family of the deceased.

Are you investigating what I asked you?

It's not on the back burner because it's not a serial murder, right?

I won't forget.

I'll look forward to it.

That way.

This is the one.

There are no surveillance cameras in this vicinity.

(Seojin Real Estate Agency)

Are you Mr. Lee Sung Hak?

- We are from Cheongin... - Of course, of course.

- Aren't you the police? - Yes.

Come inside. Come in.

All right. Let's sit down.

- Take a seat. - Thank you.

Well,

you are here as my guests,

but this place isn't for guests.

Please have some.

Next month,

I'm moving to a townhouse in Seoeun-dong,

but I have a gap before I move in there.

I'm staying here temporarily.

I just need to wait for a month. I didn't want to waste money.

Since you are busy detectives,

I suppose you don't know much about townhouses.

That townhouse is the best one in Cheongin.

Well, it sort of feels like...

I'm spending a lot of money to move in there,

but according to the head of the district,

that townhouse is the safest...

and the most convenient place for old people like myself.

I am a close friend of the head of the district.

May I ask what you did last night?

Last night?

What did I do last night? Did I watch a drama?

No.

Did I sleep?

I used to on top of things when I was young,

but nothing can defeat age.

Did you know that I graduated from Seoul National University?

I was going to dedicate myself to my alma mater.

They formed their own cliques and droved me out.

I cannot stand injustices.

Do you know the murder incident of a bank teller in 1998?

Of course, I do.

Three people died.

That incident caused quite a stir.

Because of that, the female tellers didn't work overtime.

And at night, they always stayed in pairs.

It was quite a scene.

It seems you took a keen interest in the case.

Of course.

I killed them all.

Why are you so shocked?

I thought you were here because you all knew.

You made a statement that you were at home on May 21, 1998.

Yes, the day when I killed Yoo Gwang Mi?

Of course, I was at her house.

Then did you also killed Jin Seon Joo and Cha Joo Ah?

I killed them all.

I killed all of them.

Mr. Lee, you cannot joke around in front of the police.

Everything will be considered a confession.

Have you been fooled all your life?

(Yoo Gwang Mi)

(Cha Joo Ah)

(Jin Seon Joo)

(Episode 26)

I haven't been here for a while.

It brings back memories.

That was during the economic crisis.

The whole country was in turmoil.

Despite that, my murders were on the front page...

of the newspapers.

Whatever it is,

I don't partake in it unless I'm the best.

On May 21, 1998,

where were you between 10pm to 12am?

I told you earlier.

I was at Yoo Gwang Mi's house.

That girl...

had a great face.

When I was about to kill her,

it was quite a shame. You know?

She cried and asked me to spare her by bringing up her dead parents.

If I was going to go all soft because of that,

I wouldn't have been there in the first place.

You know people are...

the dumbest when they are an inch away from death.

Watching them...

is what makes this whole thing fun.

Right. Was her name Jin Seon Joo?

Now,

it's hard to remember their names.

Well, she was a married woman.

She was so stubborn and didn't listen to me. You know?

I was going to finish her after hitting her 20 times.

I got so angry that I hit her 30 more times.

(Depressed skull fracture, was hit at least 50 times)

(Cha Joo Ah)

(Yoo Gwang Mi)

Customers that come to the bank these days...

are in their 60s or 70s.

Young customers handle it online. Who would come to the bank now?

Even so, please show me customers around in their 60s or 70s.

You know, this has nothing to do with teller serial murder case...

from a long time ago, right?

Someone told me that this was related to that case.

The culprit wasn't apprehended then.

I'm really scared these days.

Please show me the locker Ms. Kwon Ji Sook was using.

I confirmed it with the samples from the deceased's family...

whom I could reach.

The DNAs match with the bloodstain from Ms. Cha's uniform.

The rest will probably match too.

But the statute of limitations for all three cases expired.

Why did you stop killing after Kwon Ji Sook?

Now,

you're treating me like a criminal.

Well, I guess...

you got something from the blood test?

Were you scared when the police were closing in on you?

Scared?

When I was right in front of the police,

they couldn't arrest me because they had no evidence.

Why would I be scared of them?

I hurt myself when I was trying to...

run away from Kwon Ji Sook's house.

How would I...

be able to complete...

that beautiful and perfect act of murder with my injured leg?

I lived all these years...

while getting the pension for the disabled.

Meanwhile,

I was waiting for the day I would make fun of the police.

Why did you find Kwon Ji Sook and kill her?

It's been 20 years.

She's dead?

When? The day before yesterday?

How?

Why did you kill her?

It wasn't me this time!

What did you do 2 days ago between 9pm to 11pm?

That's your job to find out.

You get paid with the taxpayers' money every month.

You should be using your resources for this.

Detective Chae and Shin are checking everywhere,

but there are no surveillance cameras...

around the house at all.

It's hard to trace his whereabouts.

He used to live in an inn in Jangseon-dong.

He got kicked out because he couldn't pay rent.

He couldn't pay rent for the place he's staying at now.

It's driving the landlord crazy.

Given the condition of his leg,

he might not have done the act himself.

When we're investigating Lee Sung Hak's whereabouts,

we must investigate his acquaintances at the same time.

I see. I'm looking into that now.

He neither has families or friends. He doesn't have anyone.

He has a cousin, so I contacted his cousin.

He has never called the cousin for 40 years.

The cousin didn't want to talk about him.

Whom did you teach your MO to?

I was wondering why you visited me out of the blue.

Someone copied me, right?

It's hard to copy my method.

That person must have researched extensively.

I get it though. If he's going to copy anyone, it should be me.

This is what it means to be a legend.

You love to brag about yourself.

There is no way you would have kept this a secret.

Whom did you brag this to?

I really wanted to brag about this,

but before the statutes of limitations expired,

I was trying my best to hold myself back.

I was worried I might spill it when I got drunk.

So I even quit drinking.

Fine. I'll be understanding...

and agree that what you did was a skill too.

So...

were you trying to pass it down?

Whom did you teach?

Teach?

Right.

Not passing down this legendary skill...

to the next generation would be absurd.

With the spirit of the master...

Yes, I like that. "Master".

The master of murder.

So...

you did teach someone?

Who is it?

Well, I wouldn't say I taught someone.

I'm just saying that I'm sure there's a follower who respects me.

You and I can somewhat communicate.

Back in the days, those jerks, Park Ki Tae and Jeon Chun Man,

was not able to think outside of the box.

Especially, that jerk, Jeon Chun Man.

He bothered me and beat me up so much.

- Hello. By any chance, - Hi.

have you seen the owner of...

the real estate agency over there two nights ago?

I see. The professor?

He did go out for a walk quite often at night.

The old man who always lies that he's a professor?

How would I know what he did two days ago?

I might've seen him at the meeting with the district office.

- Meeting with the district office? - Yes.

It had to do with the redevelopment for Wonseo-dong of Zone Four.

The meeting ran until late at night.

Okay.

This is the surveillance footage for the meeting you requested.

Thank you.

Gosh, I should take a break.

Here.

- Good job. - I'm sweating.

He's really there.

It's too early to give up yet.

Whatever it was,

I'm sure he must have left his seat during the meeting.

I'll check if there's footage of him exiting from the office.

- I'll go to Mr. Woo. - Okay.

Fine.

Like you said,

let's say there's a follower of yours.

Are you saying that someone killed Kwon Ji Sook for you?

I don't know that.

I don't know who that may be,

but I am grateful that person eased my grudge.

The fact that I failed to kill her is frustrating,

but on top of that, I even hurt my leg.

Exactly. Why did such a magnificent master...

fail to murder Kwon Ji Sook?

Perhaps you underestimated her too much for living alone?

I understand that you had no idea her colleague would barge in.

But how could you leave the door open during that time?

Leave the door open?

What nonsense is that?

I'm not that careless and stupid.

I opened the door in a hurry.

So...

were you upset and furious that you couldn't kill her...

because of that man?

Is that why you ordered your follower...

to finish the deed?

You're wrong.

That punk wasn't the reason why I failed.

There was another wench there.

I didn't run away because I couldn't fight off that punk.

It was because there was...

another wench in that house other than Kwon Ji Sook,

and she ruined everything.

There was another person?

Other than Kwon Ji Sook?

Goodness.

Is this news for you guys?

No wonder.

The reporters and detectives back then...

I don't think...

I should've mentioned that. I made a mistake.

But since I've already spilled it,

let me explain.

The reason why I failed...

was because Kwon Ji Sook was with another wench.

If not, why would I have failed?

I'm a master, after all.

The master of murder.

Bring me Yoo Jung Soo.

Okay.

Thank you, once again, for making time for us.

Don't mention it.

But due to an end-of-the-month report,

I cannot stay for too long.

Still, I'll help you as much as I can.

During the case in 1998, you heard a scream.

After seeing that the door was open, you went in.

Is this all true?

Why?

During the investigation, I found some irregularities...

in your testimony and evidence.

Why did you lie?

Well...

Actually,

Ji Sook and I were lovers.

She had a fiance.

And she got married right after the incident.

Her fiance was very obsessive.

Her family wanted the engagement to happen.

But she was afraid of him.

I listened to her worries,

and afterward, we started seeing each other.

That is why...

We had to lie about it.

Then that means...

her door was locked that day,

and you knew the passcode to her house.

Yes.

However, she did not want anyone to know about us,

so I couldn't tell the cops that I knew her passcode.

I thought such a lie was small and harmless.

I'm sorry that I caused confusion in your investigation.

At the scene of the crime,

was there another witness...

aside from you?

Another witness?

As I have previously told you,

Ji Sook didn't want our relationship to be revealed.

If she was with someone that day,

she would've told me not to come.

But someone could've been there and left before I got there.

Still, I'm sure Ji Sook would've sent them away...

before I got there.

When I went in,

I only saw that man and her.

Let's say...

someone was there with her and left before you arrived.

Do you have an idea...

whom that could've been?

It happened so long ago, so I'm not sure.

All right.

Please cooperate with me if I ever need your help again.

You can contact me whenever you need to.

Please find the murderer...

who killed her.

If he gets away with it this time again,

I don't think I'll be able to handle it.

(Name: Lee Sung Hak)

What kind of prank is Lee trying to pull?

What is his intention?

If he is not the one who did it,

why is he lying and putting up a smokescreen?

What if he is controlling the copycat himself?

- If not... - But...

he seemed to have thought...

that we knew there was another witness.

Perhaps, there was a third person?

Like what Yoo Jung Soo said,

that person could've been there before Mr. Yoo arrived...

and left after witnessing the crime.

Yoo said that...

he wouldn't be able to take it if the culprit got away once again.

Doesn't his words irritate you?

It's not like the cops want to let the culprit free.

But then again, he has the right to say that.

His ex-lover whom he saved in the past...

has been murdered.

But we have yet to know if it's the same killer.

Whether Lee Sung Hak told the truth or not,

it is possible that there is a witness that we have missed.

Check to see if there's any woman who could've visited Kwon's house.

At the same time, we need to find out Lee's intentions...

in case he is merely planning to disrupt our investigation.

We need to know what's the truth...

and which ones are lies.

Especially, that jerk, Jeon Chun Man.

He bothered and beat me up so much.

I've done everything I can without sleeping or eating...

for a year to catch him.

Do you think it'll be different for you?

There is one method we can use...

to make Lee spill.

Hello, Jeon Chun Man speaking.

I heard you do your job well and quickly,

but that woman is still out there.

I'm afraid that...

I'd put you in a tight spot if I used force, director.

So I'm thinking of a way to do it discreetly.

Please don't worry and be patient.

Didn't you say you were going to go with the flow?

What's going on with the director?

What are you scheming this time?

I'm not scheming anything.

If you keep doing this, I won't be able to defend you any longer.

Do you understand?

- Stop it this instant. - When did you ever defend me?

You...

We'll talk again.

Please do the witness interview for Lee Sung Hak.

Are you asking me a favor or what?

Are you having problems as well?

If Detective Woo Tae Seok is willing to listen to my story,

I will stop the protest.

Fine.

I'll meet with him,

so do the same for me.

A woman is doing a one-person protest...

in front of Hankyul Hospital,

claiming his son fell victim to medical malpractice.

Did Hankyul Hospital bribe you?

You never change, do you?

You're always the same.

Do you think I'd ask for your help if I did something on the side?

He was her only son, and he died.

I think she just wants to talk to someone about it.

And she specifically asked for you.

Meet with her.

Bedazzle her with your charm...

by acting cool.

First, talk with Lee Sung Hak.

Why would I?

You first.

Reveal the truth.

Bring my son back.

Reveal the truth.

I am Woo Tae Seok.

You could have contacted me yourself.

Why did you do it through Captain Jeon?

I wanted to know how powerful my enemy is.

So I went after someone that I thought they couldn't touch.

But they were more affluent than I thought they were.

Both the director of Hankyul Hospital...

and that detective, Jeon Chun Man.

Detective Woo.

I heard you are a righteous man.

But they can easily order you around too.

I need to brace myself.

Anyway, thank you for coming.

Don't mention it.

I'm not that guy that you described me as.

I actually came because of another reason,

but I really want to hear what you have to say.

Why did you want to see me?

What do you think is unfair?

I have a case to resolve immediately at this point,

so if you give me some time,

I will make sure I visit you again.

I have no problem with waiting.

My son is...

already dead.

And I just need to disclose the truth.

Well, as you know,

it's not easy to reveal the truth against the powerful.

And the truth...

may not be like what you expect it to be.

I don't care what the truth is.

I just need to find out...

why my son died.

I have to reveal the truth,

but I couldn't do it alone.

That's why I protested alone, waiting for someone to help me.

I will wait.

I don't care if it takes you a year or 10 years.

I just need to know the truth.

Please help me.

I will visit you again as soon as possible.

I promise.

Thank you.

That's all I need.

Goodness, it's nice to see you, Chun Man.

I don't think we were in such a nice relationship.

When Captain Jeon went after Lee Sung Hak,

he was just like you, Detective Woo.

I still wake up in the middle of the night...

when I think of all the time I lost going after you.

My wife had to give my kid's first birthday party alone because of you.

You pestered me so much back then,

so I thought you would've become the commissioner general by now.

Look at you now.

You're right.

- You lied, didn't you? - About what?

What do you mean, there's another?

It's just as I said.

Kwon Ji Sook and Yoo Jung Soo are the only two left as far as I know.

The statute of limitations expired already,

so just spill the truth.

Stop trying to use your brain.

I don't use my brain against you.

This is between us,

but you're the physical type, not the intellectual type.

It's not something a limping old man who can't use his body can say.

I pity you.

You weren't like that before,

but you got really cheap, covering her mouth with duct tape.

Why?

Did I strike a nerve?

No, I'm thankful.

He responded oddly when he mentioned duct tape.

The only difference made compared to 20 years ago.

Why are you thankful?

Find out for yourself.

Stop asking me all the time.

You should use your head.

Lee Sung Hak showed up at the meeting,

so I looked at every minute to see if he was gone for a period of time.

He went out to use the restroom for 10 minutes,

but other than that, he was in there for three hours.

And his whereabouts during those 10 minutes were caught on tape.

And it's impossible to go to Kwon's house in just 10 minutes.

His alibi is strong.

Darn it.

Hey, detective guy.

I want to leave now.

I thought you probably checked...

the evidence of my alibi with this much time.

I mean, he's a competent detective.

I'm sure he did that much.

Mr. Lee.

You can't come in here.

I need to say goodbye.

I had a lot of fun.

Not many will talk to me now because I'm too old.

Call me from time to time.

If you aren't the culprit, then who is it?

Do you know who it is?

I do.

I know everything about them.

So who is it?

Goodness, that kid.

I think they want to copy everything that I've done.

So who is that?

Why should I tell you?

I won't benefit from telling you that.

Oh, but then...

you gave me a fun time, so I'll tell you this.

I keep telling you that there's another wench, didn't I?

If I was that person,

I would only end this after killing her.

That's the only way to make sure.

(100,000 dollars)

I plan on going far away.

I had a lot to take care of,

so I had to come so suddenly.

Goodness.

Why are you giving us so much?

It'll all be useless once I die anyway.

Please make good use of it.

Did you go to the hospital?

Yes.

I went and told them...

that we'll stop the treatments.

Great job.

There is no need to try so hard to live for another few months.

We all die anyway.

Before we die,

let's pay for our crimes.

(Less than Evil)

I have to find the other witness.

I heard he's a prime suspect.

Who do you think will lie...

between the two of us?

I might have said that there is another wench because of that.

You're not as good as me.

So tell me the truth!

I have a follower who does everything that I say.

She killed her parents?

There is only one person who knows who witnessed this.

Why don't you know?

You said you saw it!

I heard everything I need.

I might kill you if I keep listening to you talk.

It looks like anyone can kill a person, doesn't it?

You need the technique and the brains to do that.

The moment you find out why my foster parents had to die,

you will face the deepest pain, Mr. Woo.
