THE CHARACTERS, PLACES, ORGANIZATIONS AND EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.

CHILD ACTORS WERE FILMED IN SAFE SITUATIONS.

This place is on sale at a good price.

It's spacious and bright.

Oh.

What's really good is that it has a garage.

They left some stuff here.

The owner will clean them up.

Come see inside.

It's spacious, right?

Jeez, they even left these stuffs.

Hey, ma'am.

Someone collapsed here.

There's a man.

That's a man.

Hey.

Why are you so nervous?

What?

Me?

Was it real when you collapsed

in the autopsy room?

No way. I was just playing a trick.

You can't even look at him directly.

I can.

I'm just trying to look at the entire body

and then...

look into it thoroughly.

There's a latching device,

but it was not used.

Is that so?

- We need to identify him first. - Wait.

You don't know who he is?

Look into him closer like me.

You see as much as you know.

You don't read economics magazines?

No wonder. You don't even watch news.

Who is he?

He was on the cover of Korea Business Magazine on March.

Choi Seonu, the CEO of SW SOFT.

Right. Choi Seonu.

How can I be so smart?

I read it just once on the plane but didn't forget--

Shut the mouth, and you'll look smarter.

Oh.

That's not what I'm pursuing.

Investigate Choi Seonu more.

Okay.

Why is he here?

Gosh.

What's going on here?

- Do you think you know him? - No.

- He's a total stranger to me. - Hey.

You don't read economics magazines, right?

What?

How long has this office been unoccupied?

For one or two months?

I visited here last week, but no one was here.

I see.

Okay. Thank you.

Yes.

Jeez...

No way.

Why did he die in an empty office?

This place was Choi Seonu's office.

He started his first business here.

Yes. He started it with only three staffs at first.

So it was here.

He successfully grew a unicorn group by his own effort.

How can the IT legend die like this?

Why? You feel life is vain?

Interesting.

It's gonna be a difficult case.

Don't say it that way.

- That's annoying. - Me?

Or investigation?

Both.

- Kyungjin. - Yes.

Go get a security camera footage

and find Choi Seonu's car.

- Okay. - Move. Quickly.

It's gonna be a difficult case.

By his own effort,

grew a unicorn...

Police.

Did anything happen

to your husband recently?

All of a sudden, everything's got messed up.

The situation got worse in his company.

He couldn't sleep at night,

so he even got psychotherapy.

But he said

he could manage it.

Was he

murdered by someone?

We're still on investigation,

but no sign of homicide yet.

He called me.

He said someone was trying to kill him.

He said I could also be killed and told me to run away.

- Yeah? - I found Choi's car.

It was left on the road.

- The key's also here. - Check the dashcam.

I'll check the autopsy.

Hello.

Hello.

It's finished, right?

Yes.

No sign of a wound, injection,

or drug.

What?

I've worked here for eight years,

but I've never seen a body like this.

The cause of death

is dehydration.

Dehydration?

You mean, he didn't drink water?

His stomach is empty.

He hadn't eaten for at least four days.

And he's been dead

for one day.

How can a human

die like that?

That's...

what you need to find out.

I really don't understand it.

There was a bundle of water bottles,

and the door was open.

He was holding his cell phone.

What happened to him?

- You've seen any case like this? - No.

I've seen a lot of weird bodies...

but never seen anything like this.

I really want to solve this mystery.

I feel a sense of duty to solve this--

Yeah, that's right.

Just go home and think about it.

- Hey, we need to talk - Go home.

- more about this mystery. - Okay, enough. Go home.

Think about it at home.

Hey, let go of me.

You told me not to care about him,

but now you're close enough to share a car?

Is it because of that kimchi?

- No, it's not that. - Don't try to hide it.

He's in my team.

What?

Is he a detective?

Yes.

Gosh, hey.

- That's not bad. - What's not bad?

Don't even try to imagine anything.

Why don't you invite him over for a meal?

- No way. - Hey.

Let's go by my car.

No, I'll use mine.

"Choi Seonu's death case"

"The CEO of SW SOFT"

"Water bottles, cell phone in hand, no wound"

"Company in bad situation, death threats"

"latching device, not used"

"No wound or sign of injection or drug"

"Cause of death: dehydration"

"bottles of water kept intact"

Good morning.

Hey, hey.

On my way here in the morning,

I saw that your mom was smiling at me.

She couldn't be.

You got it wrong.

No. Her smile was cute

but a little scary.

She was smiling at me.

- For sure? - Yes.

I doubt that.

- Got the dashcam? - Yes.

That again in this early morning?

Here.

I can't do it anymore.

What did you say?

We'll be in big trouble.

Let's stop it.

And here.

We should find this man first.

Yes.

I found who talked last with him.

It's Seo Yukyung,

a famous psychiatrist.

We've got to see her.

Yeah.

Jin will go with me,

and you go to the company and check this man.

Okay.

Let's go by my car.

Ganghyun.

Why do you always go around with him?

Wow.

I should watch him.

- Will you do it? - It really is gold?

Of course. You think I plated it?

- Arrest me. - You're under arrest.

How dare...

Or should I let him do it?

Spare me, detective. The fault is all mine.

I'm the only one, right?

- Isoo, it hurts. - Stay put!

Jin, let's go.

- Release me. - I'll let you go this time.

Be good, you punk.

- I'll not forget your generosity. - Good.

"YK Hospital"

What brought you here?

I'm here to see a doctor and for something else.

This hospital looks like a hotel.

Hello.

Made a reservation?

No.

We're police.

How are you running this place when I barely see patients?

How much is the fee here?

Our customers never care about the fee.

I'm also rich.

I just wonder.

Please come this way.

Enough of silly talking.

Do you not wonder?

You lack curiosity as a detective.

Please come in.

What brought you here?

Oh.

We need to ask you about Mr. Choi Seonu.

You know him well, right?

Yes.

He's one of my patients.

What kind of disease

did he have?

What our customers are concerned about the most

- is security. - He passed away.

I still can't tell you.

Come back with a warrant.

How did he die?

It's a kind of...

weird suicide.

In the storage of his office,

he didn't eat anything

and ended up dying from dehydration.

You think this is possible?

When some patients feel extreme fear,

they're not able to go out.

Was it possible that he didn't drink water

when water was right next to him?

I'm not sure about that.

If he collapsed having a fit

when the dehydration started,

he could've fallen into unconsciousness

and died.

He once was hospitalized

due to a sudden seizure last time.

Mr. Choi Seonu

called you every day for four days

before he died, right?

Right.

We talked on the phone.

What did he say?

He was in panic.

He said

someone was trying to kill him.

It's so weird.

I still don't get it.

Dehydration and seizure.

That makes sense.

No.

I feel we're missing a key point of this mystery.

The first suspect is Dr. Seo.

You suspect everyone you meet.

She's a psychiatrist.

Isn't it suspicious?

In the movies, most criminals are psychiatrists.

The reason that you suspect her

is the movies?

Movies reflect the reality.

By the way, do you know Dr. Seo?

No.

Why?

She seemed to know who you are.

Is she my follower?

Why didn't she tell me?

I could follow her back.

Right.

You're the center of the universe.

Hey.

Now you know me.

Get on.

He's Cho Sunggu,

the leader of our Customer Management Team.

Can we see him now?

I'm afraid he's not coming here since Monday.

Is it true that our president...

has passed away?

Yes.

We confirmed the footage

where those two were talking about something serious.

Was there anything special

between the president and Cho Sunggu?

Our company is currently...

in a bad situation.

So, the president seemed to have used company funds to invest in coins.

But the prices have plunged.

Cho found it out somehow and blackmailed the president

to charge him for embezzlement.

I found it out yesterday.

Can we get Mr. Cho's address?

Just a moment.

Mr. Cho Sunggu.

We're from Gangha Police Station. Please open the door.

- Ask help to the manager. - Okay.

Wait.

Damn it.

- You're here. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

The body...

looks pretty horrible.

Are you worrying about me?

How sweet.

This building smells like sewers.

What's this rotten smell?

Well, Isoo.

- You okay? - What happened?

We came here right after getting his address.

Damn it.

Bro, this will help.

- I don't like mint. - It's not mint.

Mint chocolate.

Mr. Choi.

I have a favor.

Here.

Okay.

Here you are.

Take care.

Yes.

The victim was sitting, right?

These bloodstains here...

Go ahead.

Okay.

There's no empty space between these bloodstains.

Right.

He was attacked from the back while sitting.

With a sharp knife,

his artery

was slashed at a stroke

by someone very skillful.

The culprit could be a professional.

Right.

How long has he been dead?

I can't figure out the exact time,

but I found this little cutie.

It's a pupa of a green bottle fly.

He's been dead for about a week.

"Cho Sunggu's death case in the officetel"

Cho Sunggu died a week ago,

and the next day,

Choi Seonu hid in the storage and died after four days.

What did the doctor say?

Choi was hospitalized recently,

and he got better.

But he sounded panicked on the phone

saying someone was trying to kill him.

She thinks he had a seizure during the dehydration.

Did Choi Seonu

kill Cho, who was blackmailing him,

and died while hiding in the storage?

That's possible.

But then,

why was the two billion won

not taken?

Okay, this is the key point here.

Why didn't Choi drink water?

Even if he was scared,

or he killed Cho, why didn't he drink water?

"bottles of water kept intact"

Checked the security cams around the scene?

Yes, I did,

but there's no cam on the 5th floor.

It's only on the first floor,

so it was no help.

We got fingerprints on the money bags.

Damn!

The second daughter of MK,

Hong Euna?

Why is her fingerprint here?

I tried to find her,

but I couldn't.

And she's not answering the phone.

I hope she doesn't answer.

Don't.

Hello, I'm--

What the hell?

Who the hell keeps calling?

Wanna end your life?

I'll kill you if you bother me again.

Hello--

Stop it.

She has anger management issues

as many rich daughters do.

How do you know that?

They were a legendary couple

before the Gangnamdaero case last year.

Gangnamdaero case?

Kyungjin.

"Jin Isoo on Gangnamdaero"

Cool.

Gosh, my trauma.

I'm Hong Euna!

I'm Jin Isoo!

Let's stop it.

Stop what?

It's me who decides to stop.

It's me who can break our relationship.

Okay, then. You decide.

Ditch me. Go ahead.

- What? - Please say, "Let's break up."

What a crazy bastard.

Hey, let go.

- Let go of me. - I knew you'd be like this.

Hey, stop shooting.

That's still being passed around?

You should go see her anyway.

- Me? - Yes.

No, I won't.

I decided never to see her in this life.

We need her statement to solve this case.

Yes, we need your skillful talent.

I know I'm talented, but...

Jeez, she's really...

Gosh.

My heart is pounding now.

We have an interview today.

Come here.

You're our family, too.

Hold here,

- and cut here diagonally. - Like this?

Yes.

- Keep practicing. - Okay.

Why are you here all of a sudden?

You still can't forget me, right?

How could I?

You're too late.

I'm getting married.

With whom?

Why?

Are you jealous?

Please just tell me who he is.

I'll send him condolence flowers.

You're still good at pissing me off.

But I've changed.

I can tell.

Not throwing me anything, but arranging flowers.

It's kind of a bridal class.

Do I look good with it?

You know this man, right?

- What's that? - It's not an object but a person.

Take a close look.

What the hell are you doing?

You don't know yet?

I'm a detective now.

That's the funniest thing that I've ever heard this year.

"Jin Isoo Korean National Police Agency"

So you're here for work?

Not because you missed me?

He's dead.

And the bags with two billion next to him had your fingerprints on them.

What happened?

I was blackmailed.

You beat someone up again?

It's not that!

You know, I'm getting married.

I was so nervous that I went to the psychiatrist.

I even got a special treatment.

And he blackmailed me with that,

so I gave him that money. That's all.

Was that

YK Hospital?

How do you know that?

Euna.

You can tell me everything.

I mean,

you can trust me.

Did you kill him?

What the fuck!

Hey.

Congratulations on your wedding!

- Good luck! Be happy. - Hey!

Don't even think about coming.

Know your place.

Please look at the camera.

Thank you for inviting us over.

It's us who are grateful.

You took nice pictures of our family, right?

How did you first meet each other?

Tell us the story.

Our story?

I was introduced to him by my father,

but I fell in love with him at first sight.

It's hard to find

such a perfect man.

Thanks to him, I got a decent son like Seungju.

Your second son is not coming?

He's been amazing these days.

He's too busy to be here.

Let's take

a family photo again.

Please look at the camera.

The National Seal had been missing for long.

How did you get it?

As an exemplar of noblesse oblige,

tell us about the new case

you're in charge.

Okay, everyone.

I've got some time for this.

So, raise your hand and ask me one by one.

I'll answer every question kindly.

Okay, there.

Didn't you have difficulties during the investigation?

A lot.

Anyone else?

Yes?

Please explain where you found the seal.

That's a secret. And next?

Are you satisfied with your life as a cop?

That'll be a long story.

I'll explain it later.

Anyone else?

Jeez, I don't like the dish choices.

We didn't set any food for you.

You're not eating with us, right?

You made a good choice.

My stomach hurts if I eat with you.

I need to eat with good people.

Okay, get lost, then.

Sure.

An unwelcome guest is leaving.

By the way,

you need to find another plastic surgeon.

You look ten years older than Father.

That's too bad.

Isoo.

Eat with us before leaving.

I'm not hungry.

And I'm busy.

Okay.

Thanks for coming today.

I'm off.

Talked with Hong Euna?

Yes.

I almost got killed.

She was blackmailed?

She was blackmailed by Cho Sunggu.

She got psychotherapy before her marriage

at YK Hospital.

The security system of YK Hospital

is from SW SOFT,

and Cho Sunggu was in charge of that.

Really?

He extracted patient information and blackmailed them.

You mean, one of those patients murdered Cho Sunggu?

Then, why did Choi Seonu die like that?

We need to investigate Hong Euna first.

I'm sure she's not.

I asked her already.

She's too impetuous to tell a lie.

Is it true that she was your girlfriend?

You waited for me to ask--

No way.

It's okay.

Ask me whatever you want.

I'm not interested.

Why do you rule out your ex while suspecting everyone?

That's what I wonder.

- No, that's not. - That's it.

- I don't think so. - Shut up.

- Why-- - You're together again.

Mom.

Hello.

Yes.

Have you eaten?

- No, not yet. - Great.

I made galbitang. Come in and have some.

No, I'm fine.

Oh, should I?

I'm starving now.

Oh, good. Come in.

- I've had a long, hard day. - Gosh, really?

Ganghyun, come in already.

- Just let her. - Jeez.

Ganghyun, come in.

Honey.

- Yes. - Honey, our neighbor is here.

He works with Ganghyun.

What a coincidence!

Oh, right.

Thank you for your help last time.

Help?

What do you mean?

I helped him with gardening pine trees

a few days ago.

Oh, right. The pine tree.

Good job.

- Mom, I'm hungry. - Oh, right.

- Let's eat quickly. I'm starving. - Oh, wait.

Okay, okay.

Just a moment.

Okay, I'll set the table.

Have a seat.

Galbitang is here.

Thank you.

- I'll go get octopus. - Okay.

Huh?

Huh?

Okay, it's all ready.

- Let's eat. - Have a seat.

It's not much, but I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks.

I haven't had a home-cooked meal for a long time...

since my mom had passed away when I was young.

Must've been harsh for you.

Please enjoy, thinking that your mom cooked it for you.

Okay, thank you.

Oh, gosh.

Slow down.

- Are you okay? - Thank you.

It's hot.

I choked.

Slow down.

Try this octopus.

Oh, octopus.

- It's good, right? - Yes, it is.

A moderate amount of salt

keeps you healthy.

Try this, too.

You okay?

No.

My blood pressure is going up.

You're overacting. Jeez.

I told you that you'd better not come.

Why didn't you listen to me?

As my mom gets older,

all of her food is badly seasoned.

It's too spicy

or too salty.

We're scared of her table.

Galbitang tasted like seawater.

It was warm, though.

"Oh, Yummy Chicken Set menu for 2 servings"

Dr. Yoon?

Dr. Yoon.

Oh.

Detective Park?

Right, you said you live nearby.

What a coincidence.

- Yes. - Oh, well...

Have you eaten?

No, not yet.

Good.

I wanted to try this new restaurant,

but they only serve two servings.

You want to eat with me?

Sure.

Let's get in.

Looks yummy.

- Enjoy. - Thanks.

How about...

soju?

Sure.

Why not?

One soju, please.

Thank you.

You shouldn't pour your own drink.

Cheers.

Great.

Hey, come in.

What are you doing there?

They look good.

What's good?

You're going too far.

No, I'm not.

I saw

Ganghyun was so sweet to him.

She was patting him on the back.

He's a rich son.

Rich son?

Yes.

The youngest son of Hansu.

He was on the news.

He's a rich son,

and he works with Ganghyun.

Now he has even moved near our house?

Honey.

This is a perfect romantic comedy.

A rich son-in-law?

Hey, Junyoung.

Track Hong Euna's recent whereabouts.

Okay.

You look so tired.

Do I?

You didn't sleep well?

No, I didn't.

Because you ate something too salty?

No.

Let's go.

Do you know this man?

No, I don't.

Who's this?

He's Cho Sunggu,

who's in charge of the security program here.

So?

He blackmailed your patients

after extracting their information.

What?

You didn't know that?

No, not at all.

Was he arrested?

He was found dead.

He was murdered.

What kind of information

did he extract? How?

We're not sure about that.

So, please help us.

We need your patients' information and security cam footage.

Sorry, but I can't.

If I give you that information,

my life as a doctor will be over.

You need a warrant.

Yes, sir.

Excuse me.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

If someone

has the same dream every night,

why does that happen?

Is it about yourself?

What kind of dream is it?

I go to the same place in my dream.

I remember

it's somewhere I've never been to.

And

I see the same thing every time.

I need a further examination

to figure that out exactly,

but one thing is obvious.

In your mind,

there's something that's suppressed.

A dream is like a letter

from your unconscious.

Maybe your unconscious

has something to tell you.

I got it.

Yes, sir.

I don't think we can get a warrant.

The patients here

seem so powerful.

Right.

Hey, what's that dry reaction?

What?

What did you talk about?

Nothing.

Let's go.

Hey, Sherlock Holmes.

Why are you so quiet today?

Try to guess something.

Well...

I have no idea.

The public survey result is out today.

We overtook Wang Jongtae for the first time.

Especially, the approval rating among young people has risen.

We shouldn't be relieved yet.

It's obvious that the overall flow changed.

I think...

Isoo is helping you attract the youth voters.

Your son is dreaming of it.

His memory

will come back soon.

You have something in mind, Father?

Oh.

It's nothing.

Please check it.

It's about recycling.

Let's protect our planet.

"No parking"

Excuse me.

This is about recycling.

Okay.

Hello.

It's about recycling.

"Expert's Real Estate Agency"

You shouldn't park here.

I'm a town master here.

You're looking for a house?

Oh, no.

I'm here to find out something.

I'm a reporter.

Oh.

You're a reporter?

What are you trying to find out?

42/7 Sejong-ro. Do you know where it is?

Of course, I do.

So, what about that house?

I'm looking into the family who lived here 25 years ago.

25 years?

That's too long ago.

I've lived here for only ten years.

That's right.

No one knows about them.

The whole street here was reconstructed, so the places here are all new.

What are you investigating?

Who's there? Hold on.

What's up?

Hello.

I'm Lee Giseok, an SBC reporter.

Oh, I don't like reporters.

Go away.

It's not about you, Mr. Lee.

I'm here to ask you about that house.

What about that house?

25 years ago,

you were in charge of the case that happened there, right?

Is it because of the election?

It's like

a hidden card.

I have nothing to tell you.

Hong Euna has an alibi.

She was in the U.S. on the day of Cho's death.

What's up with him?

I don't know.

All that we know

is that Cho Sunggu blackmailed Choi and Hong.

I found it out!

Those two are accomplices.

The forensic result is out.

We found deleted texts

between Choi and Cho.

Let's stop it here.

We made it twice.

- Just one more time. - It's dangerous.

I'll let you out after this.

Where's the USB?

Somewhere only I can open.

USB?

USB.

Now, it makes sense.

Cho blackmailed Choi for embezzlement.

But Choi had no money,

so he blackmailed patients using their information.

And one of them got mad at him

and killed Cho Sunggu.

Choi was scared

and hid in an empty office.

To find out who was mad at him,

we need to find that USB first.

Why?

What?

Let's go.

"Customer Management Team Cho Sunggu"

You shouldn't park here.

Move the car.

Hey, move the car.

I'll go ahead.

Hey, put on gloves.

They're in here.

They didn't seal it properly.

The criminal came back to the scene--

Come on.

Damn it.

Goddamn.

Jeez.

It's so embarrassing. Damn.

Gosh.

I'm the one who made it,

and I'm also the one who's bound in it first?

Jeez.

"Descending Life Line"

Jin.

To the first floor!

Hey!

Come here, punk.

Don't question the validity of the arrest. You're dead, bastard.

Gosh, I'm exhausted.

Take him to the station.

Okay.

I'll get you a new car.

I'm so sorry.

I was chasing the criminal.

Call me later.

You saw him?

He was hiding in Cho's house.

- I got him. - Are you insane?

What?

You could've died.

- I was holding the life line. - What if you missed it?

You didn't even ride it properly.

I had no other way

- to catch him. - It's not about him.

You're too reckless.

You still don't get it?

I just...

Take him to the interview room.

Yes.

Yes, Mom.

Why aren't you answering?

I was working.

Ganghyun.

About Jin Isoo...

Yes, what about him?

A reporter

is asking around about his house.

Reporter?

Which reporter?

Let me see, he's...

Lee Giseok.

He's asking around about a family

who lived there.

He said a woman who was living there died.

I remember

Isoo said

he lived there when he was young.

You know anything about it?

No, nothing.

Mom, I'm busy working now.

Oh, okay. Bye.

Bye.

how your mom died.

Stay tuned for bonus clip
