Do you want to know the truth?
Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon's autopsy results were not incorrect.
Seo Yoon Hyung died of oronasal suffocation.
Seo Yoon Hyung never had tuberculosis.
What are you trying to say?
There are big fortunes and bribes behind this autopsy.
You make the decision.
Professor Lee is correct.
Why are you doing this?
How am I supposed to believe this?
I know I wasn't wrong!
I won't do this work anymore.
I don't have the right to investigate.
But I won't give up like you.
I won.
As a result of this victory, I'm going to make many changes at the NFS.
Goodbye.
I'll be back.
If the living speak lies while the dead speak the truth,
then I'll find out the truth from the dead.
Who is it? Who came into my room without my permission?
- Doctor! - What is this?
Starting today, I will be the new member of the NFS's southern branch, Go Da Kyung.
What are you talking about?
The evidence disappeared?
You haven't given up on Seo Yoon Hyung's case, have you?
Episode 4
Let's start over.
Seo Yoon Hyung's case.
Are you an idiot?
Why?
Does your brain not work?
Don't you know it's useless unless the real object is found?
But this evidence is important in proving that oronasal suffocation is the cause of death.
I just want to prove the truth...
I'll take care of that.
I'll do it my way, so don't interfere.
This was my case too.
Yes, this is Yoon Ji Hoon.
Doctor, we're all set for the autopsy.
Got it.
I've had enough, so take your luggage and leave my room.
What?
How did you get here?
I took the train and then the bus.
Then take the bus and the train back to Seoul.
Didn't you hear before?
I've been assigned to the southern branch.
Cars don't drive late at night here so you'd better hurry.
Doctor!
I was assigned here.
Do you mean Seo Yoon Hyung's micro-fiber sample?
That's right.
I think it was lost by the police. Look into it immediately.
Don't let others catch on.
Got it.
Very good.
Hello?
Do you know how many autopsies we do here every year?
That's why we sent you more people.
I told you to send me useful manpower.
I'll determine whether or not they're useful.
All you have to do is follow my orders. Got it?
Besides, you two worked together before.
You did Seo Yoon Hyung's autopsy together.
Doesn't the southern branch belong to the NFS?
Will the NFS take responsibility if something goes wrong here?
How can someone who hasn't even held a scalpel be useful?
If you've become an NFS official, you should do your work properly.
This is why there are rumors of corrupt hiring practices at the NFS.
Are you still that fearless?
Because of your rude attitude,
you got Chief Jung Byung Do fired.
Have you still not come to your senses?
Why don't you mind your own work?
Why are you letting personal matters interfere with personnel hiring?
How can you call someone so untrained a medical examiner?
Take her back now.
This isn't a kindergarten or a landfill for trash.
Landfill for trash?
This is Dr. Kim Wan Tae and Dr. Ahn Sung Jin, the new transfers from Seoul.
Hello.
He was found in a motel bathroom?
Yes, he was found lying down like this.
From the bruises and his missing wallet, it seems he was the victim of a robbery.
I can't believe he was killed for something like this.
Why? Is there something wrong?
No.
This is his family.
Can we go now?
My son has to take a test tomorrow.
But after the autopsy, you have to take back the body.
Then we'll be back in two hours.
Even if he's been a failure as a husband,
how can she not shed even a single tear?
Don't you think?
Ms. Hong Sook Joo has also been transferred.
They also said a new medical examiner was coming,
but I guess traffic's holding her up because she's still not here.
The medical examiner is here!
The medical examiner's not coming, so let's not wait and get started on the autopsy.
Doctor.
I finished 4 years of general pathology, and I have a certificate too.
In the past year I've observed over 30 autopsies.
Even though I'm new here,
I'm someone who's been officially tested, interviewed, and hired for this position.
Please don't count me out.
Really?
Then you do it.
What?
You say you're a medical examiner.
You do it.
Well...
Doctor.
Start the autopsy.
Don't be nervous.
- Good luck! - Yeah, sure...
I will start the autopsy.
Are you really a medical examiner?
Yes.
Didn't you hear before?
I'm the medical examiner. I was officially appointed by the NFS.
But I haven't done an actual autopsy yet.
Doctor.
Start the autopsy.
Oh my. The wound is very deep.
Doctor.
Cut it.
What's the matter with her?
They're always like that at first.
So what if she's observed thousands of autopsies?
There's a big difference between observing an autopsy
and actually cutting open the body.
Good work, good work.
Although this is your first time,
I've never seen anyone shake like that.
- Good job. - You worked hard.
Thank you.
Wan Tae. We should have lunch.
What about intestine soup?
The kind with huge chunks of intestines floating?
Sounds good.
I was thinking cow blood soup.
That sounds good too.
Who is that?
Are you okay?
People who just start out all go through it.
What did they make you eat?
Cow blood soup?
For me, it was cow intestine stew.
Mean guys. I told them not to joke over food,
but they never listen.
But how old are you?
You look a little bit younger than me.
Can I speak to you informally?
Ah, yes.
I'm warning you as a senior of the NFS, but you need to stay sharp.
The NFS is a jungle.
You saw Doctor Kim Wan Tae, right? That strange-looking man.
Don't give him a chance.
He'll be all over you.
He's over here, then over there.
He's totally like a bat.
And you know Jang Jae Young, the pretty good-looking guy?
He's just a mini Yoon Ji Hoon.
He thinks he's the best.
Dr. Ahn Sung Jin.
Whenever he opens his mouth, he spews out nonsense like diarrhea.
They're like the psycho 3 stooges.
But...
I knew that Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon was temperamental,
but I think it's gotten worse.
Just think of it as a fork in the road.
Imagine how angry he must feel.
The heaven-sent Chief Jung Byung Do retires,
and you're stuck in a place like this.
Just think of the future and be patient.
There's a saying, patience can even prevent murders.
But are you going to have a welcoming party?
Welcoming party?
Really! I guess I'm gonna have to teach you everything!
Really...
Don't you know that even dogs wag their tails to greet people?
The earlier the better, the more expensive the better.
Something like Korean beef or raw fish.
This is my tip for you.
Thank you very much.
I hope you'll keep looking out for me.
Of course I have to look out for you.
Even though I'm here because of human error,
I'm going to find my way back to Seoul.
The Chief won't just leave me here.
After I go back to Seoul,
I'll have you immediately promoted.
Got it?
Yes.
Oh...
when do we have to report on the autopsy?
For that too, the earlier the better, the more accurate the better.
If you fall behind in your first report, that image will last permanently.
So be alert.
Yes.
Doctor, this is Go Da Kyung.
Is he not in?
Where is he?
Wow!
A forensics department college ring!
So this is what it looks like.
There it is!
Just a little more...
What do I do? I'm so dead!
Doctor, I can explain...
I thought I overreacted this morning,
so I brought some coffee to apologize.
But then I found out you weren't in.
So I was just about to leave the coffee here.
And the bookshelf looked very nice and strong...
Can you help me up?
Say it again.
- What? - Don't lie this time.
Tell me honestly what happened.
Well...
You claim you want to be a medical examiner,
but it turns out you don't know what you're doing,
But you need to hand in the autopsy report.
So you come crawling in here to find information?
No. That's not it.
I just wanted to have a cup of coffee...
Then have your coffee.
Doctor. Are you going somewhere?
You're not going to help me out?
Doctor.
Doctor, I'll tell the truth!
You're right!
I know the cause of the death, but I can't figure out the nature of the death,
so I came to ask you about it, Doctor!
I'm sorry.
What about the crime scene photos?
Give them to me.
But I'm doing the autopsy.
It's my case, so why are you...
Is this an office or a pigsty?
Ah, I haven't had time to organize.
Give me reports and pictures of the crime scene.
Doctor. Do you have to be like this?
OK, I understand.
You can have this case.
But please just tell me why he died.
I know he died from excessive loss of blood from the bruises on his abs,
but I can't determine the nature of the death.
It seems there was a fight between the victim and the robber.
Except for a wound on the hand, there are no other injuries,
and the angle in which the knife was held is also very strange.
I can't figure it all out.
Move aside.
I can't move until you tell me.
Look.
Like you said, it seems there was a fight bad enough to cause broken glass,
but there are no bruises on the body.
Why is that?
What if it's not a robber,
and the criminal is someone he knows?
If the criminal is someone he knows,
that explains why there are no flesh wounds except on the hand.
He kills the victim unexpectedly.
And he fakes a robbery.
Do you really think the injuries on the hand
are really from self-defense?
What?
When you stab someone with a knife,
an unskilled person will hurt their own hand.
In particular, when he stabs his own stomach,
it's especially difficult.
So was it...
Suicide?
Detective Yang said that when the autopsy was finished,
we had to contact the insurance company.
The victim did it for his family members.
It's a common case.
A suicide to get insurance money.
The victim staged his own death so that his family could get the insurance money.
He sacrificed himself for his family.
How can you speak so insensitively?
What are you talking about?
Even if we say it's a murder, no one will get hurt.
We don't have a suspect. All we have to do is say it was a homicide.
So you want to fake the autopsy results?
You said an autopsy was fulfilling the last wishes of the dead.
The victim's final wish was to have his family receive insurance money.
What's wrong with you?
Discriminating an attack wound from a defensive wound
should be basic knowledge.
You're just a rookie who doesn't even know the basics.
This case's autopsy is finished.
The cause of death is excessive blood loss.
The nature of death is obviously suicide.
And one more thing.
It seems it's a habit of yours to barge into someone else's room.
But if you enter my room again...
Clean up my room within an hour.
A person just died for insurance money,
but he wants me to clean the room?
What kind of medical examiner is he?
Heartless jerk.
I feel sorry for myself for having a boss like him.
Who is it?
I'm here on behalf of the NFS.
What brings you here?
Well...
As the person who conducted your husband's autopsy,
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
Your husband's death
is suicide according to the autopsy results.
The suicide wasn't impulsive, but premeditated.
In order to leave his family the insurance money,
he planned his death pretty thoroughly.
I know.
What?
Someone came looking for me a couple of days ago.
Who was it?
Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon was looking for us.
Your husband has committed suicide.
He told me about the motives behind my husband's death.
Why he didn't even leave a will.
And he told us why he came to find us.
He wanted to tell us that my husband was thinking about his family up to the very end.
As the one who conducted my husband's autopsy,
he said it was his responsibility to deliver the message.
To let us know that the real inheritance my husband left us
is not insurance money,
but the true love he felt for his family.
My husband went through a lot of pain.
My son and I cried for a long time.
He tried so hard,
but all we did was resent him.
Excuse me.
The first body died two days ago.
Doctor. Here.
Hello.
Dr. Yoon, I'll only be observing today.
I promise I won't distract you.
Just let her participate.
Are you crazy?
Excuse me?
If you're not crazy, then stop bothering me.
Yes.
Dr. Yoon.
Today is my welcoming party.
At the restaurant at the intersection.
I hope everyone will come.
Let's start the autopsy.
Yes.
Here, here.
Attention please!
As everyone knows,
in a couple of days,
the Vice Minister of Public Administration and Security will be visiting the NFS.
That very day, his investment of $45 million
will be finalized!
Now, now.
On that note, the man who bought us this dinner,
and brought in the funds, Chief Lee will speak!
Mic test.
Thank you everyone for coming despite your busy schedules.
It's been a year since I've taken over my duties as Chief.
I'm not too confident that I've lived up to your expectations as the chief.
Nonetheless,
I can promise you this much.
At least for today, you can eat to your heart's content.
Let's put everything behind us tonight.
I hope you all have a good time.
Cheers to the NFS!
Cheers!
Applause!
Incoming call from Hong Sook Joo.
How many times do I have to tell you?
I just think my being transferred here is a mistake.
Can't you double check one more time?
It wasn't a mistake.
This is killing me...
And by the way,
don't make these sorts of phone calls from now on. Understood?
Does the Chief know I'm being treated this unfairly right now?
He knows very well.
He personally requested your transfer after all.
He knows?
If he knows,
then why...
Do you want to know?
There's just one reason.
Your gift!
But it was from my heart.
He didn't like it?
That's beside the point.
How can you make such a move on such a high official?
The Chief was very upset!
Did you know that?
I'm hanging up!
Miss Sook Joo.
What did I tell you?
Don't bother looking at a tree you can't climb.
Oh, my head hurts.
This is impossible.
How could Chief do this to me?
Should I explain it to you?
Lee Myung Han
abandoned you.
Totally!
Forget him.
Forgetting is healthier.
Forget what?
Do you understand what I'm going through?
Do you understand how much my heart burns for the Chief?
Why throw fire at me,
if you're burning for Lee Myung Han?
Dr. Kim. Dr. Hong.
Are you going to Go Da Kyung's welcome party?
Think I'm in the mood for that? Move!
That wild boar! Really!
I was just trying to comfort her out of pity...
It's already seven.
What if no one goes?
Hey kid.
Why do I have to take sides with a medical examiner who has no connections?
I'm upset enough about not working in Seoul.
And I can't even breathe around Doctor Yoon Ji Hoon...
If you want to go,
you go ahead.
I'm going home.
Move.
Move, kid.
Get some rest.
Leaving!
Hey, Jae Young.
I really like sashimi.
Can we go?
You and I have to reorganize all the files tonight.
Hi, Dad!
It's awesome!
They have the best medical facilities!
Oh, they're making a big deal today because it's my welcoming party.
Okay, okay! I'm coming.
Oh, Dad. I'm a little busy and distracted right now. I'll call you right back, okay?
I love you too!
Excuse me.
When are the others coming?
Miss.
Don't worry.
I'll eat it all.
Miss.
Are you okay?
Have a drink.
Just one drink.
But Ms. Teaching Assistant...
the more I look at you, the more charming you are.
Especially your eyes.
You think I'll fall for that?
But I mean it.
I'm telling you I can't give personal information to others.
Do you often hear that you have bright eyes?
Don't be like this.
I really don't know where Seo Yeon is.
All I know is that she took temporary leave and went to study abroad in Europe.
Do you really think I came to you just because of Kang Seo Yeon?
I came for you.
Can I call you noona? (Noona: what a younger guy calls an older girl)
But...
were you dumped by that brat Kang Seo Yeon?
Yes.
She wanted to break up after a year.
It was difficult for a while.
But now that I see you,
I'm thinking why I had to go through all that.
It's nothing...
And I have things I have to return to her.
If I could have her address...
That would be nice.
This is just a rumor.
But I hear that she's in Japan.
Japan?
Is it Hiroshima?
Or Nagasaki?
Anyway, one of the cities that got bombed.
I hear she went there to study abroad.
Ah. Hiroshima.
Incoming call from Snob
What am I supposed to do if a person calls me out here and then doesn't pick up the phone?
Hey! Detective Choi!
What is this?
Drunk again?
No matter how much I drink, I don't get drunk.
This is driving me crazy.
Why are you always drunk?
Hey.
What?
Do I really seem like a boot-licking snob to you?
What are you talking about?
I'm asking you if I really seem like such a boot-licking snob.
Answer me!
Hey, Yoon Ji Hoon!
Yoon Ji Hoon!
I'm tired.
Yoon Ji Hoon!
You're the worst!
She kept shouting Yoon Ji Hoon, so...
Then you should've called the police.
I'm a medical examiner too!
Even if you look down on me...
you should look down on me moderately!
You take care of her.
You can't just go!
What do you want me to do?
Don't you know her?
I don't know her.
You obviously know her!
I said I'm a medical examiner too!
I heard this was her welcoming party. How could not even one person show up?
You prehistoric bird-looking bastard!
And all this food...
I can't just throw it away.
She needs to pay, but she's so drunk...
I don't care, so take care of it.
Wait!
I have to close up.
How can I just send a young woman to the police station?
She'll probably be locked up in a cell all night.
I think you'll need to pay.
You know how much I tried to come here?
Geez. She ate a lot.
Mister.
Buy me some sashimi.
Mister.
Another bottle of soju.
I'm slipping. I'm slipping.
I'm slipping again.
Why do I have to do this?
Which room?
Go straight.
This is driving me crazy.
I said which room?
310.
Why you...
What's your password?
I said go straight! Straight!
I should just dump you here!
Could it be her birth date?
This woman is so naive.
Sober up!
Light, light!
This.
Does she think she's a princess?
Now.
Lie down.
What is this?
Oh this!
Who's this!
Isn't it Yoon Ji Hoon!
Yoon Ji Hoon.
What's up?
Why did you leave the office to come here?
You rascal.
Did you miss me?
Are you insane?
Rascal.
Don't live like that.
Okay, kid?
You look so cute.
Don't glare at me. Your eyeballs will fall out.
Seriously!
What? Are you upset?
Are you upset?
Okay, okay.
You can hit me too.
Hit me! I'm letting you.
I said hit me!
Hit me! Now, now!
I said hit me! Just hit me!
Wow. This is very stretchy.
Let go.
Hey, kid.
Don't be so uptight.
Don't just look at what's before you. Sometimes, you should look up at the sky.
Why does someone like you who can't even see 100 meters ahead of you,
live such an exhausting life?
What kind of person is this?
Yoon Ji Hoon!
You punk!
Look up at the sky now and then.
The sky...
It's as if the stars are falling down...
Senior Citizen Center
It's two!
I'm dead!
Why are you doing farm work? Your knees are bad.
Don't just stay in the office all day.
Take a walk outside now and then.
Are you still going to the hospital?
Don't skip out on visits just because you don't feel like it.
Don't make a busy man look after you.
It's nice to hear your voice.
It's been a year.
I'm sorry I haven't contacted you all this time.
It's alright.
Actually,
I'm at the southern branch now.
This place is beyond words.
There's so much work.
And they only send nuisances to help.
You probably have a lot you want to ask me.
No, I don't.
Actually...
Yesterday I looked up at the sky.
And I just felt like calling.
You're still the same.
You always wanted to overcome obstacles by yourself.
Listen carefully to what I have to say.
Sometimes, you should let yourself open up,
and even lean on other people's shoulders.
That's life.
What are you talking about?
I have to go.
I'm making some nice wine, so come over for a drink.
Yes.
Yoon Ji Hoon.
You rascal!
Let go of me.
You look so cute.
You rascal.
What are you doing?
Doctor. I'd like to apologize.
Apologize? For what?
First, for missing the autopsy this morning.
I'm very sorry.
And for last night...
I drank too much so I think I went a little crazy.
- Were you frightened? - Not a bit.
I'm truly sorry.
You need to have some sort of expectations of a person to be surprised or disappointed.
You're just crazy.
Alcohol's not good for you.
Oh. By the way.
It's colder down here than Seoul, so be careful.
What?
It seems it's a habit of yours to sleep on the streets when you're drunk,
but if you're not careful, your body might be brought in for an autopsy.
At least he hasn't fired me.
Still, he could have been nicer with his words.
Rest area
Help me.
Help me! Help me!
Welcome, Mr. Vice Minister.
I am Lee Myung Han, Chief of the NFS.
Please come in.
This is the genetic lab center, which we completed in 1999.
After the Seo-rae incident in 2006,
this lab was acknowledged as the best criminal identification lab in the nation.
The lab consists of 7 operating rooms,
including analytical laboratories and a research lab.
This way, please.
This lab detects a variety of substances, including blood alcohol content,
fibers, soil components, pollutants, and flammables.
We currently rely on gas chromatography and mass spectrometry.
However, as the crime rate increases and crime methods become more creative,
I feel that it's imperative for our facility to adopt more advanced and precise tools.
This way please.
This is the postmortem examination room, the heart of the NFS.
This is where forensic evidence is obtained,
which provides scientific evidence for criminal cases.
What is obtained here enables the catching of the right criminals
and also directly affects the gravity of criminal sentences.
So this is the famous NFS examination room.
That's right.
This is where the criminal investigation begins.
Would it be too much trouble if I took a look?
I would like to see how the NFS's medical examiners work.
Of course.
Who will conduct the autopsy?
I will show you personally.
Place of discovery?
She was found on a highway in northern Kyeong-gi Province.
Looking at the numerous injuries throughout her body and abrasions,
the coroner speculates that it was a hit-and-run.
The body was discovered on a highway.
Looking at the numerous injuries throughout her body and abrasions,
the coroner speculates that it was due to a hit-and-run.
She seems to have been killed in another location before being dumped there.
Since I have no information, I can't identify the vehicle that hit her.
Please help me figure it out.
There was no blood found at the site where we discovered her body.
Seeing that there were no skid marks or other signs of hit-and-run at the site,
there's a chance that the victim was killed somewhere else and then brought to the site.
They lack information on the type of car,
so finding information to identify the car is urgent.
Looking at the contusion on the upper shin, it was probably a big car like a truck,
with its bumper placed high up.
As for the type of car,
the bumper is above 50 cm from the ground. A truck that weighs a ton.
The car that hit her is a large-sized car.
After the primary injury, there was a secondary injury from a car
going at a high speed which caused brain damage and death.
The secondary injury is the cause of her death.
It caused skull fracture and brain damage.
The most important thing in car accident autopsies is the bumper mark.
The bone fracture caused by car bumpers is called a Messerer fracture.
In this case, it was found on the back side of her shin.
By calculating the height of the bumper and the force that hit the spot,
we can speculate that it is a small truck weighing under one ton.
In addition to the bumper mark, what we have to look at is
the open wounds and bone fracture on the upper front part of her body.
This type of injury happens when the victim
hits the front of the car right after the initial hit.
The driver left an important piece of evidence for this secondary hit.
What's so important about that? It's just a bumper mark.
Do we have a UV projector here?
No, only the Seoul headquarters has it.
Should we transfer it to the headquarters?
It's definitely a hit-and-run accident. Why are you folks wasting time?
Didn't I tell you it's important evidence? We have to check it.
The victim's family refused the autopsy, but I convinced them to allow it.
If you transfer the body to headquarters, her family won't just let it happen.
- There's a UV place near here. - What?
It would take just ten minutes.
The visible light that we can see is only a small portion of light.
There are many other wavelengths outside of the range that we see.
UV rays are used in various ways--for instance, in sterilization and manufacturing,
and also in lights used in karaoke bars and night clubs.
At the NFS, UV rays are very useful for analyzing internal hemorrhage.
Turn off the light and get the UV rays ready.
Yes.
We're here.
- What is that? - Black light, from karaoke bars.
Close the curtains.
What are you doing?
UV photography, also known as ultraviolet detection.
Any evidence buried under the skin, the UV rays can detect it.
The car is a small-sized, white truck, weighing under one ton.
There's a unique logo below the car windshield.
The car is a small-sized blue truck, weighing under one ton,
with a unique logo under its windshield.
From the evidence that we have collected, the time of death was a week ago.
We will start the autopsy.
Jang Jae Young, Kim Wan Tae, assist the autopsy.
Dr. Ahn, you take care of the UV detection.
You... X-ray deciphering.
Yes.
X-ray goes to Dr. Kim,
Dr. Joo, assist my autopsy.
Dr. Choi, be my secondary assistant.
Start the autopsy.
The cause of death is... injury due to a car accident.
The cause of death is multiple injuries due to a car accident.
The nature of death is...
a simple hit-and-run car accident.
is a murder disguised as a car accident.
