Gap Dong
[Previously]
Are you the Gap Dong inside?
Name: Park Ho Seok. Age: 43.
Don't you know me?
I'm Loser.
Where are you?
I happened to meet someone I know on my way home.
He's Gap Dong.
Why'd you see Dr. Oh?
You don't know why you stopped either, do you?
Can you show me yourself?
The old 6th case isn't far away.
It was today by the lunar calendar.
- Where would you like to go? - Gwaneum Temple, please.
Sure.
Mom, you said you'd come.
You passed out after a drink again?
Don't tell me Loser is your hero.
You should complete what he failed to.
Ok, where shall I go for you?
That reed field?
I don't know when I'll strangle you...
...either.
So don't provoke me.
I hope you're not the girl to die tonight.
[Episode 11]
[Police Station]
Was it you?
The Gap Dong inside?
You'll use your right to remain silent?
Sorry.
There's more than enough proof.
Tell me.
"I was hiding for 20 years..."
"...but Ryu lured me into it again."
"I'm the real Gap Dong."
Say it!
He's zipped his mouth shut.
He won't confess...
...unless there's crucial evidence.
Since it'll end as attempted murder.
Are you sure he's Gap Dong?
You wouldn't be Gap Dong if you'd confess so easily.
It wouldn't be fun if you did, eh?
Do you know how long I've waited for this moment?
The moment to interrogate...
...Gap Dong in front of me.
You know what's the first thing I wanted to do when I catch you?
Come out.
Don't waste your time. Now.
What, are you upset I caught him?
I said, come out!
What's with you? It was just getting started.
He's not Gap Dong.
What do you mean?
He's not.
He's just a puppet.
What are the grounds?
You're seeing Gap Dong for the first time.
Yeah.
I'm sure it's exciting catching him.
But you don't think he's the real Gap Dong, do you?
Ha caught him attempting the 6th case. Under the circum…
Cut the crap! Then I'm a dumbass who hasn't caught him for 20 years?
I interrogated over thousands of...
...Gap Dong suspects.
Trust me.
Just do it.
Do you know him?
Yes.
I know him very well.
You know what people call me?
Mad Monk.
In other words...
Crazy dude.
Let's finish where we left off.
About what I wanted to do...
...when I catch Gap Dong.
The reason I became a detective.
With my bare hands…!
Tell me what you did to the girls after throwing them down?
Huh?
Shouldn't we stop him?
Like this.
After tying a fishing knot like this…
You seemed to have become someone at this point.
You're no longer Loser at that moment, eh?
It was exciting when they begged for their lives!
You happened to start it and luckily got away.
So you kept going.
You became more confident, skilled…
…and cruel, and it finally reaches 9!
Tell me you're Gap Dong, you monster!
That's not it.
That's not how you do it.
Yeah.
I'm…
...I'm Gap Dong!
- Go! - Come on!
Detective Ha! Are you ok?
Detective!
You're watching, eh?
Having fun?
Are you having fun?
Mr. Yang!
I don't know when I'll strangle you either.
So don't provoke me.
I hope you're not the girl to die tonight.
Mom, what brings you here?
It's a surprise attack.
I was expecting you to be with someone.
You want some tea?
Sure.
Are you ok?
I'm sorry for worrying you.
You don’t want to come home?
I'm so worried about you being here.
Sorry, mom.
But now I know…
…it's tougher the more you try to avoid it.
And I like it here...
...because I'm not alone.
You're talking about Detective Ha?
Are things going well between you two?
- That's good to hear. - I don't know…
But I'm not the only one bent on...
...catching Gap Dong.
That helps me breathe.
It's all your fault.
You started it.
I lost everything because of you.
Because of what you said.
My life was fine...
...before you showed up.
I wasn't...
...a loser like this.
Not all Gap Dongs...
...live like you.
You are...
...a worse guy than Gap Dong.
He at least knows who he killed.
But you...
...don't know who you killed and how many you killed.
Gap Dong killed 9, but you ruined…
…dozens, I mean hundreds of lives!
So I'm saying that you…
…killed more people.
I'll apologize if that's what you want.
But how would that change anything?
Either your life...
...or mine…
[Jail Clinic ID]
[Park Ho Seok]
[Police Edition]
So I'm saying that you…
…killed more people.
What happened?
He was a strong suspect.
I got the report after the 6th case.
Someone said they saw...
...Park at a nearby fishing site.
Doubts were set at rest soon.
He was an impotent.
He asked me to keep it a secret and I let him go.
But rumors of him being Gap Dong already spread...
...and his company fired him.
Rumors of him being impotent spread.
That's why he wrote...
...on the jail clinic wall...
...when you returned.
I was the problem.
I invited...
...Gap Dong back.
You want to starve to death?
Ironical, eh?
Gap Dong is the one to kill.
But you and I...
...both hate Mr. Yang.
Well.
You have anything to tell me about Ryu Tae Oh?
Then...
...let me ask you this.
How'd you know…
…the signature?
Fishing knot.
What brings you here?
I have something to tell you.
That guy…
It's me.
He learned about Gap Dong from me.
So he ruined his life...
...because of Gap Dong too.
He was an ivy league graduate and elite employee.
I understand he's upset at Mr. Yang.
But doesn't he know too much?
He still won't talk?
Right.
How he knew the signature is key.
But he won't say anything.
Mr. Yang interrogated him before. Maybe he learned then.
Since he was told to make the knot.
But he knows the crime method accurately.
I thought only corporals and above knew the signature.
Yeah, that's weird…
You saw him.
He knew it thoroughly.
Yeah.
When Ryu believed Park was Gap Dong…
…he knew everything including details.
That's not all?
You asked him to make a fishing knot before.
Did you tell him any other details?
You're about to investigate me now.
Park Ho Seok...
- …used to work for me. - What?
What's this?
He visited me wanting to catch Gap Dong.
He couldn't understand why we couldn’t catch him.
I hate it when they say that.
This is Park Ho Seok?
The guy on the monthly police news booklet?
I took him in...
...since Gap Dong ruined his life too.
So I helped.
He wanted to catch Gap Dong himself...
...to show you.
Gap Dong's ruining everyone…
I felt sorry for him, so...
He translated when...
...I consulted foreign profilers.
He inputted data for me since I wasn't computer-savvy.
That's when he learned.
The details and the signature…
Great job.
I knew I'd get in trouble.
You're always behind any problems that occur.
Ha Il Shik, Park Ho Seok… Right?
It's all my fault.
You're saying it's because you show'd...
...the signature to anyone, right?
You're not a profiler but a pro… at ruining cases.
Yeah, I ruined it all.
Mu Yeom's dad, Park and you too.
"You too?"
Anyone can become Gap Dong like you!
What are you trying to say?
Yeah, I ruined it all.
Mu Yeom's dad, Park and you too.
"You too?"
Anyone can become Gap Dong like you!
What are you trying to say?
Never mind.
I just got emotional and blurted out nonsense.
I'll cooperate with anything.
Go on. What did you mean?
Never mind.
Anyway I'm sorry.
I was a fool and I ruined things.
Did you understand what he meant?
"Anyone can become Gap Dong?"
Forget the nonsense...
...if you want to catch the real Gap Dong.
I'm sorry for asking you to come. I know you're busy.
Sit down.
Mr. Han came saying he knew Park.
I wanted to...
...check with a witness just in case.
Do you remember the Gap Dong...
...that you saw long ago?
I don't know.
You really don't know?
No.
I'm sorry, but does that mean…
…you don't remember or...
...it's not Gap Dong?
I…
…don’t remember.
But...
...I don’t think it's him.
How are his diagnosis results?
He has...
...a severe delusional disorder.
He started by imitating Gap Dong.
But I think he thinks he's Gap Dong at times.
We'll have to wait and see.
The police caught Park as Gap Dong.
He's been revealed to have a delusional disorder...
…thinking he's Gap Dong.
Whoever's daughter that is…
...she's cute.
You're always behind any problems that occur.
Ha Il Shik, Park Ho Seok… Right?
Anyone can become Gap Dong like you!
What are you trying to say?
Anything else you want me to do?
I haven't been nice to my kind wife recently.
You want to give me more work, eh?
You're quick.
Actually, I need to find something out quietly.
Mr. Yang…
Oh, you came out to greet us.
Say hi now.
Hello!
What brings you here?
We can use the main structure, eh?
I don't know what you're talking about.
Mu Yeom didn't tell you?
I thought you guys already talked.
Hey!
Don't choose anything expensive.
Sure.
Ok.
Same jacket. Different look.
Wow.
I appreciate it, but this is expensive.
I feel good.
- About what? - We saved one this time.
Oh yeah…
Did you look into it?
Mr. Yang? Nothing special.
Who said such a crazy thing?
That he could be Gap Dong...?
What did you mean by...
..."anyone can become Gap Dong?"
When you were demoted long ago…
I thought...
...'Great. Why not resign now?'
But investigations were a mess without you.
What would you have become if not a detective?
I would've gone around beating up people.
Like my dad.
You spent your good times on Gap Dong.
- You should've quit long ago. - I tried to quit too.
'Someone will catch him. Why must I be the one?'
So I thought.
But...
...what do you know about the 7th case?
I don’t know...
...what you're talking about.
Well.
If it's because of yesterday...
...just forget it.
[20 years ago, 7th case crime day]
Gyeonggi Police are hiring...
...15,000 more people to solve the Iltan serial murder case.
Those who report suspects...
...will now receive $50,000 instead of $20,000
Ji Ul…
Well.
Isn't it my lunch time yet?
You feel alive now, eh?
I'm dying here.
Well.
I just like the food here.
Anyway where's my son-in-law?
Son-in-law?
- Who? - Who else?
My Detective Ha.
"My Detective Ha?"
Oh hey.
Don't just sit there.
Go get him now.
You said detectives are useless.
Now I see...
...he's the best one out there.
He's our lifesaver!
Lifesaver…
That sounds really good.
Sir!
How could you force the landlady to move out?
It slipped my mind.
Nice to have people around, eh?
Can I talk with you?
You see…
…we had to leave the temple since...
...they're starting housing development.
I'm sorry for the sudden intrusion.
Mu Yeom will always pay rent.
Sir.
I said we don’t have to be that way.
There's so much we can do for her.
Guarding, cleaning, lawn care.
We might have to get paid rather.
Don't you think?
You rascals!
Do you know how scary the landlady is?
Look at her eyes get big!
It's ok. Go help outside.
Stop playing around.
It's dangerous. I'll do it.
I'm sorry.
It's ok.
It didn't look like him anyway.
I'm worried…
That’s why I can't let you leave alone.
I need to stay with you like this.
That’s why I moved.
Don't think of kicking me out.
I don’t have anywhere to go anyway.
Please leave a message…
Why aren't you answering, Mad Monk?
How was the move?
I should visit you.
I wonder if the guys had a smooth move.
That's why you need a girl.
On that note, great news.
My mom finally approves!
She calls you...
...her son-in-law now!
I feel so happy...
...like I'm in a flower bed now.
You want to go with me?
Where?
Switzerland.
Ah. Switzerland.
I can't...
...live here any longer...
...after being on the news and all.
When will you come back?
I don't know…
Possibly never.
You really don’t want to go with me?
Come on, stop joking around.
I'm not.
There's...
...a school for royal family kids.
A Saudi Arabian prince could sit next to you.
It's a good school.
Wow.
You must be serious.
Why? Why do you want to take me?
Do you…
…like me?
I might need you.
What do you mean?
Who knows?
You could be my Sonia.
Who's Sonia?
Crime and Punishment. Sonia.
The girl who told him...
...to shout out to the world...
...that he's a murderer.
My mom's in the hospital.
I don't have time to think about it.
Give it some thought.
Why are you asking me?
Just because…
…you could be a brake for me.
This is nice.
This is perfect for counseling.
I can ask for it anytime too.
What is it?
It's a girl issue.
Well.
Just so clingy. She won't leave me alone.
I wonder if I'll need to take 'em in forever.
Forever?
She's also pitiful.
So Ji Ul was a woman for you.
What are you talking about?
I'm talking about someone else...
...and there are many.
Can you move away a bit?
Why'd you bring up Ji Ul?
Are you jealous?
You must've hurt your frontal lobe.
That explains the hallucinations.
You can get treatment after a test…
But I don't want to let go of these girls.
My head clears up...
...after they come and go.
You mean your will...
...to catch him gets bigger.
Yeah.
That way I won't waste time either...
I saw my dad's face in Park's.
I felt frigging bad.
That's your trauma.
Suspecting your loved one.
What happened after suspecting him was the issue.
Just trying to cover it up.
I thought he could do it since he was mentally ill.
I won't do that this time.
I heard about Park and Mr. Han.
Are you suspicious of the profiler that time?
Yeah, don't cover it up. Check.
You're cool-headed.
I'm saying this since there's conviction.
Why are you living here?
Say something, sir!
I just did as Mu Yeom told me to.
Where is he? I'll just…
What?
You want to live here too?
You know...
- ...what I gave up for you today? - Of course.
After-school classes.
Ji Ul, Ji Ul!
Dang.
- Ji Ul! - Let go.
Ji Ul!
Don't cry. Ji Ul.
I couldn't...
...let her live alone.
Why? Why can't you?
Well.
Her real name is Kim Jae Hee.
Witness to the old 9th case.
The only one who survived from Gap Dong.
- That’s why… - Is that why?
If it's not because you like her…
…I can understand.
We live together now.
I heard from Maria.
I wanted to report that and…
Actually about Mr. Yang…
Could he be Gap Dong?
What are you talking about?
What did you mean by...
..."anyone can become Gap Dong?"
Don't you know?
Next-door psychopaths.
Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Andrew Cunanan...
They didn’t seem so different.
They were neighbors that disguised themselves as humans.
And the sad truth that...
...we have...
...hidden psychopathical characteristics too.
- You know. - That's it?
What else did you expect?
Then...
...I might do something unexpected.
Curiosity killed…
…you know better.
The Gap Dong inside was Loser?
It's not a groundless rumor?
That's bullshit.
Loser was the biggest loser here.
I'm telling you we were fooled.
But how did you know?
Who am I?
I'm a hot shot's spy.
I revealed everything about Loser...
...at the police station yesterday.
Oh man…
But I...
...actually think Gap Dong is…
Who do you think it is?
[Crime and Punishment]
[Matilda]
Hey.
I thought I should give you an answer.
I...
...can't be your Sonia…
- ...but. - Don't speak.
That's enough.
Go out on the street...
...and shout...
..."I'm a murderer!"
I just wanted to say that to you.
You can't do that, eh?
And...
...if I need to be someone's brake…
…I want to be Ha Mu Yeom's.
Why?
Why can't they ban him from leaving the country?
I tried my best too but he's legally innocent…
Who's innocent?
Dang, it ends like this?
Shouldn't we stop him somehow?
Let's make him a lunatic again.
I sent my opinion to the Dept. of Justice.
But…
You're here too, Mr. Ha.
Running away? What a coward.
Fleeing is said to be the best strategy.
You don't need to find the real Gap Dong?
Not the fake one.
You keep looking for him. I lost interest.
You're going to Switzerland? Nice.
But I'll chase you down...
...even in hell.
Loser always used to say…
…"I can't understand."
Why all the detectives...
...couldn’t catch Gap Dong.
Now I understand...
...after hearing his story.
What will you do? Aren't you pissed?
You're paying a big price because of a fake.
He didn’t tell you anything?
Tell me anything you know before you go.
Well, I don’t care about Gap Dong anymore.
I just came to see you.
You can be at ease now.
Bye.
Wait.
Tell me if you need anything.
I'll go catch you myself, friend.
- That won't happen. - Well.
It won't be easy to stop.
You saw me wanting to stop.
See? I stopped now.
I can do it.
We'll see.
Hello. Have a nice day.
Where are you looking for?
- The public service center. - I see.
I'll take you there.
Hello. Have a nice day.
Excuse me, where's the office?
Go to the 2nd floor...
...turn left and go straight.
Thank you.
- Hello. - You came in all the way here?
I'm a guide from today on.
Early employment. 6-month temp.
[Guide]
I can help draw sketches...
...or anything else.
- You have an ulterior motive, eh? - Yup.
Close surveillance.
Anyway where is Mr. Ha?
Dr. Han Sang Hoon?
Why do you need his inspection info?
You don't have anything?
Everything was computerized from 2000.
We won't have old data.
You don't have anything on him?
I just need anything.
Welcome. I'll guide you.
This way.
The plane will take off soon.
Please fasten your seatbelts.
Please don't smoke including in the lavatory areas.
Please don't use...
...electronic devices...
...during take-off or landing.
Please turn off your cell phones.
You saw me wanting to stop.
See? I stopped now.
I can do it.
I'm positive it was Ryu Tae Oh.
He made...
...the hairs on the back of my neck stand.
No way. I can't take a picture.
Ok. I'll try.
[Inspection of Han Sang Hoon]
[Mr. Han told me to sit on his lap during investigation.]
[Lolita Syndrome]
- Lolita? - It's one of the worst complexes.
He can't be that bad.
Your illness is bad too.
It's worsening because I want to catch him like you.
Now I'm suspecting father figures.
I was reminded of the movie "Damage."
Gap Dong is like a tumor, eh?
Where'd you get this?
Inspection Dept.
It's common.
They wrongly accuse detectives to get money.
It is a wrong accusation.
But...
- ...why are you doing this? - I think I will...
- ...have to look into him. - What's your intention?
"Anyone can become Gap Dong…"
You know why he said that?
- Was it because of that? - Well.
Of course anyone can become him, including me and you.
But...
...was that really what he meant?
Shouldn’t we find out...
...why he said that?
Nice to see you, Gap Dong.
You're my god. My hero.
But you should tell me why you stopped.
You don't know either, do you?
I felt suspicion.
That you might be fake.
Don't tell me that Loser is...
...your hero.
What will you do? Aren't you pissed?
You're paying a big price because of a fake.
How can I help you?
You want a picture?
It's me, Yang.
I need to check something.
Mr. Han told me to sit...
...on his lap during investigation.
I thought he just adored me.
- ...Later on, I realized… - Stop!
- Turn it off! - That's not what he meant.
Did you know...
...by any chance?
Did he quit long ago...
...because of this?
He left to protect the witness.
I've known him for 30 years.
- He'd never do that. - There are tons of people...
..."who would never do it."
You'll keep at this?
I think we should look into it.
It's a serious problem.
If we entrusted the witness to a pedophile.
We should find out why he protected the witness.
Don't you think, chief?
But there's an issue of morale.
- Search everywhere. - Yes, sir.
Come on.
Why would he hide anything here? We should search his home.
He lives with Kim Jae Hee and her mom.
Why would he leave anything there?
But come on.
He'll hide his stuff even better now.
[Iltan Police Station Yang Chul Gon]
[Personal Info]
Young Ae, check something for me.
Oh wow.
The kids will love it.
What's going on?
It's not your day off today.
Nah.
Here, like this?
I just came to see you.
Mr. Ha, sorry it took so long.
I couldn't see the last number.
Hold on, Young Ae.
Whose is it?
Dr. Han's?
I'll ask Young Ae to look at this.
I'll do it myself.
Medal no. 835045 wasn't for...
...Dr. Han…
No?
- Then who? - Well.
In 1983...
[Yang Chul Gon]
…Mr. Yang received it.
No way! How can Gap Dong find Gap Dong?
Why are you saying that?
Why didn't you reveal it back then?
- Everything. - It would have been the death penalty.
I'm still wondering…
…if I made the right decision.
Doesn't Ryu look fine?
Would he not have killed anyone...
...if I'd gone with him?
You're not to blame at all.
- Why'd you do something so crazy? - I'm different from you.
I won't lose…
…anyone.
Or anything.
