Sis, it's me. I heard you're at home today.
Dad says he has to go to a meeting.
Sis, I think someone is following me.
Can't you meet me at the alley?
Just run here.
You really can't?
Let me be this once.
Go Da Hee
Sis.

Episode 15
You want to reinvestigate Seo Yoon Hyung's case?
Yes. We've confirmed Lee Soo Jung's innocence.
So it's up to us to find who really killed Seo Yoon Hyung.
You're going to subpoena the daughter of a presidential candidate?
If anyone is suspected of being a criminal, isn't it obvious to do this?
Pretend this never happened.
The presidential election's soon. Also, your opposition is a big shot in the ruling party.
He's got an overwhelming lead. He's almost a shoo-in for the next presidency.
That's why we need to do it.
Even if you stop me, I'll do it.
Why do you always go down the more difficult path?
Because it's the right one.
Seo Yoon Hyung's case, which has gained growing interest among the public,
is being reinvestigated.
The previously suspected criminal Miss Lee has been found innocent.
A reinvestigation has been launched to find the real criminal.
200,000 of presidential candidate Kang's supporters gathered for his speech at 2pm.
Candidate Kang asked for their support in order to create a stronger nation...
Tell us.
Tell you what?
Are there any lies you've told us?
In any case, Yoon Hyung ingested potassium cyanide.
Does it matter whether it was Lee Soo Jung or me that poisoned him?
It does matter. Like now, for instance.
It's been proven that Lee Soo Jung did not put cyanide in the drink.
The prosecutor is using that as a reason to reinvestigate.
Wasn't it your job to prevent that from happening, Attorney Jang?
I declared during the autopsy that the cause of death was potassium cyanide.
Everyone will be interested in who gave Seo Yoon Hyung the poison.
If I'd known you had given him the cyanide, my report would have been different.
Let me ask again.
Is there more that you're hiding from us?
No. I'm not hiding anything more.
But an examiner from the NFS came to me yesterday.
Was the examiner who came to you Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon?
Yes.
He said he's always trusted evidence
but now he says he wants to rely on the witnesses.
I'll take care of the prosecutors.
You should keep Yoon Ji Hoon from interfering in this case.
We can't let this happen with the election right before us.
Of course I agree. I've sacrificed a lot for this work.
I heard that you performed an autopsy on the dead prisoner.
Then you must have heard that Lee Soo Jung died.
I heard the electric company took responsibility for the accident.
It's such a pity she died at such a young age.
An innocent person died in prison after living falsely as a murderer.
Of course it's a pity.
So you're going to start a reinvestigation?
Whether the case is reopened or not, I'm going to uncover the truth.
Letter of Resignation
Are you leaving the NFS?
I think you said this before.
People like me and Chief Jung Byung Do don't suit the NFS.
Neither I nor Chief Jung Byung Do were able to defend scientific truth.
We can no longer stay at the NFS.
But there is another person who doesn't deserve to stay at the NFS.
That would be you, Professor.
I am going to uncover the truth behind this case.
I'll make sure to watch your downfall.
That will be the last thing I can do for the NFS.
And this time, just like you, I'll do it by any means necessary.
Is that why you met Kang Seo Yeon?
You told her you won't trust evidence alone. Now you need the witnesses' testimony.
What kinds of deals are you making with these people?
How deep does your relationship go?
That's not what's important.
Give it up. If you don't give it up, all the witnesses will die.
Do you want to save the witnesses?
Then confess!
Confess that Seo Yoon Hyung didn't die of cyanide poisoning!
Confess that your autopsy report was wrong! Then this will all be over!
You probably think you can't make that confession for the sake of the NFS.
But you're wrong. You're not protecting the NFS.
Reconsider what kind of NFS it is that you want.
Are you really going to leave?
Doctor.
Seo Yoon Hyung's case is important to me, too.
But we've done what we could in collecting the evidence.
Now it's up to Prosecutor Jung Woo Jin and Detective Choi Yi Han to resolve this.
More bodies will be coming to the NFS.
We have a duty to discover who killed those victims.
You're right.
We have an obligation to identify the cause of death fairly and objectively.
That's why I can't stay here.
Why can't you stay?
You've only made one mistake.
Don't be so hard on yourself because of one mistake.
It'll be difficult the first time around.
It's really difficult and exhausting.
The second and third times will start to get easier.
I don't have the right to be a forensic examiner.
What about me?
I came to the NFS because I wanted to be like you.
I followed your lead all this time.
If you leave...
what will I do?
You'll do well.
You'll do better than anyone else.
Are you going somewhere?
Doctor!
What? Did Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon resign?
The Jung Cha Young case.
I think it really shocked him.
It must be difficult for him. He probably thinks that 2 people died because of him.
He shouldn't feel that way.
Thank you for cooperating with the prosecutor's wish.
Well, of course I have to cooperate.
You're a busy man, so I think it's best to finish as soon as we can.
Can you tell us what happened the day Seo Yoon Hyung died?
I already talked about that a year ago.
Okay. Then I'll ask you something else.
What's your relationship to Kang Seo Yeon?
Kang Seo Yeon?
I don't know who you're talking about.
You don't know her?
That's right.
You don't know her.
If you don't know her, then why did you talk with her for three hours?
What are you talking...
The day before Seo Yoon Hyung's death, at Kang Seo Yeon's favorite restaurant
there was Jung Seok Hoon, Lee Soo Jung, Kang Seo Yeon, and you.
We've confirmed that the four of you were together.
We have witnesses too.
They say you met at 7pm and stayed until 11pm when the restaurant closed.
What did you talk about that day?
Mr. Joo Seon Woo.
You are suspected of being an accomplice to a murderer.
However, if you cooperate with our investigation, we can lessen your sentence.
I have nothing more to say.
Mr. Joo Seon Woo!
Autopsy Report
These are photos from the autopsy and the crime scene one year ago.
If you need anything else, let me know.
Are you okay?
What do you mean?
I heard you left the NFS.
The NFS was your dream.
Are you sure you won't regret it?
I'm doing this to protect the NFS.
Have you met with the witnesses? How was it?
The former Voice member Jung Seok Hoon left the country after the incident.
We can't reach him.
The only other witness is Voice's manager Joo Seon Woo.
He won't tell us anything.
The most important witness is Joo Seon Woo.
We have to persuade him no matter what.
Before he dies.
- You have a visitor. - Who is it?
He says you know him very well.
Who are you?
My name is Yoon Ji Hoon.
Mr. Yoon Ji Hoon?
I performed Seo Yoon Hyung's autopsy.
So what is it that you want to say?
You're aware that Lee Soo Jung died.
I have heard of that.
They say she died from electrocution.
It's unfortunate.
But what about it?
It's true she died from electrocution. But it wasn't an accident. It was murder.
I heard it was an accident.
I think you know very well who killed her.
How would I know who killed her?
Because they're the same people who killed Seo Yoon Hyung.
For them, it's better if witnesses die off.
Witnesses are disappearing one at a time.
I'm saying you might be next.
Are you threatening me right now?
When it comes to matters of death, I know better than anyone.
There are many ways to kill someone and disguise it as an accident.
There are probably a hundred ways to kill someone with that golf ball.
I don't want anyone else to die because of this case.
Cooperate with the prosecutor.
Tell her everything you know.
That's the only way you can stay alive.
You like golf?
You can only play if you live.
That's what I want to tell you.
What are you doing?
Hey.
When Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon left
he asked me to look after you.
Let's work hard together.
He said that?
Why? If it's not Yoon Ji Hoon, is it not good enough for you?
Not at all.
This is tomorrow's schedule.
A body was discovered on the street. Died of a head injury.
Be prepared. This will be your first solo autopsy.
A solo autopsy?
Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon said it's time for you to start doing your own autopsies.
Try your best and do well.
What? You don't think you can do it?
Then just hand it over to me.
No. I can do it.
I'll do it.
Hey, what's with the sad face?
Lighten up.
Leave him alone.
He was about to leave with Dr. Yoon. I had a hard time just getting him to stay.
What do you get by following Dr. Yoon around? Does he give you food?
Dr. Yoon's quit, so the NFS is Chief Lee Myung Han's world now.
You should think of riding his coattails.
- Stop it. - Okay.
Hello.
Doctor.
Fighting!
Victim: Oh Sang Eun.
Age: 28.
She was found early morning in an alley near her home.
We've found an injury on the left side of her head caused by blunt force trauma.
According to the officer in charge, the victim had no enemies.
She still had her purse with her.
I think it might have been a crime without a motive.
Da Hee. Da Hee, just hold on.
Da Hee!
Da Hee. Don't lose consciousness! Understand?
Da Hee!
What do we do?
Da Hee!
- Da Hee, stay awake. - Wake up, Da Hee!
Please wait outside.
A hammer?
There were some passersby when your sister was injured.
The witness says there was a man carrying something like a hammer.
But they don't remember his face or what he was wearing.
This seems to be a crime without a motive.
Doctor.
Yes.
Is something wrong?
No. Go on.
According to the officer's report, the most urgent issue is finding the murder weapon.
I understand.
We'll start the autopsy.
How was it?
The left side of the head had a depression from a blunt object.
She most likely died from hemorrhage in the brain caused by blunt force trauma.
What do you think was the weapon? Do you know?
Probably something with a blunt tip.
We need to run a few simulations to be sure.
But has the suspect been arrested?
When Oh Sang Eun died, we did arrest a man in his 30s wandering the streets.
He's jobless and addicted to computer games in internet cafes.
But we found no weapons, and he had an alibi.
I see. I'll let you know as soon as we have a lead on the weapon.
This is the 3D video program.
We use this to simulate the crime scene in order to find the exact method of crime.
This was crucial for finding out the weapon used in the Seonam serial killer case.
In the photo, there is a 4cm depressed fracture on the left side of the head.
That's right. It was most likely caused by a blunt object.
The program will be able to identify the exact type.
First, we input the measurements of the victim's head.
Then we input the location and size of the injury.
Yes.
Based on the the injury, we input the direction and angle of the attack.
Should we start with an iron pipe?
Only the left side is affected by the force
and if this had caused a depressed fracture...
It's a hammer.
It's probably a weapon with a handle and blunt tip.
If we take a look at the octagon-shaped injury
input the angle and impact velocity of the attack...
We've found it.
A hammer that's 30cm long and weighs 3.5kg.
It's an octagon-shaped hammer. The angle between the tip and handle is 88 degrees.
There were some passersby's testimonies when she was injured.
They say there was a man carrying something like a hammer.
Yes, this is Go Da Kyung.
Sis, it's me. I hear that you're home today.
Hey, Da Hee. What's up?
Dad says he has a meeting today.
Sis, someone keeps following me.
Can you come out to the alley?
Oh...Da Hee...
It's been a month since I've come home.
I think I'm going to die. Just let me be.
You really can't come?
I'm sorry.
Run here quick, okay?
Da Hee.
Da Hee, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Da Hee.
I'm sorry.
So wake up.
It's my fault.
I'm sorry, Da Hee.
It's my fault. It's all my fault, Da Hee.
So wake up.
Da Hee, I'm sorry.
Is this the only reason you called?
I'm in a big hurry. Let me explain later.
What about the list of dead bodies that I asked for?
I sent it just now by email.
Okay, I'll check it. Hold on.
I got it.
It's the list of dead bodies found in LA during the past month.
Wow. I really appreciate it, Kevin.
No problem.
Hold on.
Is Jung Seok Hoon's American name Daniel Jung?
Why do you keep doing this?
I'm trying to save your life!
I got a list of accidental deaths during the past month
from the LA Medical Examiner's Office.
A body was found in a car accident about a week ago.
The name on the driver's license was Daniel Jung.
Jung Seok Hoon is dead.
You're the only one left.
Mr. Joo Seon Woo!
Hey, Ji Hoon.
Is Joo Seon Woo going to be granted witness protection?
We can't grant it if he doesn't cooperate with the prosecutor.
Then what? We just have to watch the witnesses die off?
We might have to stop investigating Seo Yoon Hyung's case.
What did you say?
We have results from the three latest public opinion surveys.
You have twice the support of other candidates.
Wait outside for a bit.
Yes.
I hear the prosecutor is reopening Seo Yoon Hyung's case.
The thing is...
The matter was already supposed to be settled, but a rookie prosecutor took it on.
A rookie?
Prosecutor Jung Woo Jin.
She's not tied into any political circles or connections.
So you're just going to leave her alone?
Not at all.
Find her weak point and make her lose her job.
Excuse me?
The day is fast approaching.
The day I've waited for my entire life.
Anything that can be a threat must be removed completely.
So what is it that you want to say?
After all this is resolved, I'm thinking of going to America.
That's a very good idea.
Leaving the country at this crucial time will be a help to Representative Kang.
Do you really think so?
Of course.
I've never had to worry about you because you kept your mouth shut.
But even the tiniest bit of doubt must be completely eliminated.
I see.
Then I'll get going.
Please be careful.
Let's go.
Lee Soo Jung said she got the cyanide from Kang Seo Yeon.
Kang Seo Yeon must've gotten the potassium cyanide from another source.
I've already looked into that.
But I didn't find anything.
What about her cellphone records?
She must've used a black market phone.
Come in.
Sir!
Why are you here?
I'm working.
You wait outside.
I don't know what it is, but just say it.
Choi Yi Han!
I said I'm staying. Just say it.
Do you know that President Jung Cha Young's family is suing you?
What?
They're accusing her? Why?
It goes without saying that the investigation damaged President Jung's reputation.
They're saying Jung Cha Young died because the case was handled badly.
I can't believe this.
What damage to reputation? What do they mean handled badly?
If he had been put on trial, he would've faced the death penalty!
Just be still!
Do you agree that the case wasn't handled well?
Kang Joong Hyuk's behind this.
He's doing anything he can to stop your investigation.
He's trying to strip you of your title through the Jung Cha Young case.
I've also received an order to examine this investigation.
It'll be starting very soon.
Dad. You're not going to do as they say, are you?
Just give up on Seo Yoon Hyung's case.
If you give it up, nothing will happen.
I can't do that.
No way.
What kind of prosecutor...
What kind of world is this?
It's unfortunate.
But the world's been this way for a very long time.
It's just that you didn't know.
That's the history of this land.
Isn't it about time for that history to change?
Yes, sir?
Are you talking about the reinvestigation of Seo Yoon Hyung's case?
The situation is becoming delicate with elections approaching.
Shouldn't the prosecution stay neutral at times like this?
You are absolutely right.
The Prosecutor's Office must not be tied up in political matters.
I'll resolve this quietly myself.
When investigating the heads of big companies,
you have to be absolutely prudent.
However, Prosecutor Jung's rash investigation
has undermined the authority and impartiality of the Prosecutor's Office.
Prosecutor Jung Woo Jin has caused problems before.
In the case of the truck serial killer
she let the suspect free on grounds that she didn't have enough evidence.
She's proven to be incompetent.
I can't just let this go.
The amount of complaints is unmanageable.
We should take disciplinary action.
May I say something?
Go ahead.
This is my opinion as the person in charge of prosecution.
We can't say Prosecutor Jung handled the case without fault.
However, I believe a prosecutor's right to investigate should be protected.
Mr. Choi!
What are you talking about?
We seniors should not let external influence force us to dismiss our junior prosecutors.
Mr. Choi.
Have you lost your mind?
No, I haven't.
Mr. Choi. That's enough.
I have one more thing to say.
Sit down!
The influence of others...
We said sit down!
Yes?
This is Joo Seon Woo.
Yes, please talk.
I want to meet.
Please come to Hangook Hotel. Room 1917.
Meet me by midnight.
Wait, did you say by midnight?
Yes.
Did you ring?
Come in.
I have a favor.
Can you hold onto this letter?
You can leave this in the front lobby.
I'm asking you.
I understand.
What is it?
Nothing. Is there anything else you need?
I don't. You can go.
Yes.
What? Is there a...
By any chance... Are you scared?
They say they'll take away your title if you keep this up.
I thought your dream was to succeed as a prosecutor.
Yes. I'm scared, and I'm also upset.
I'm afraid I feel more fear than the ones who should really be scared.
That's what upsets me.
So are you going to give up?
No.
I'm going to make those jerks so much more afraid than I am.
Prosecutor Jung.
You were so awesome today.
Jung Woo Jin is the country's bravest prosecutor.
Prosecutor Jung. You're the best.
Yes, sir?
You've come.
Yes.
Follow me.
You've come.
Yes, sir.
Sit down.
I'll cut to the chase.
Do you really need to reinvestigate Seo Yoon Hyung's case?
Yes.
I must.
Do you understand the situation?
The presidential election is fast approaching.
I am well aware.
Have you thought about the chaos your investigation will cause?
I am sorry.
But I want to resolve this.
You have no fear.
Aren't you afraid?
If this would make me afraid, I wouldn't have started.
Then do it.
What?
I said do it.
- Sir. - Sir.
I didn't expect this of you, but your courage is really something, Prosecutor Jung.
Give it a try.
I'll take responsibility.
Thank you, sir.
But keep this in mind.
Regardless of the result, the 3 of us might lose our jobs as prosecutors.
Are you okay with losing your robes?
I always take off my robe. To take a shower.
Everything else about you is OK, but your jokes are so lame.
I'll keep that in mind.
So.
Can you do it?
Yes.
I really thought I'd be fired.
Be still, my heart!
Mr. Joo Seon Woo!
It's Yoon Ji Hoon.
Mr. Joo Seon Woo!
How can I help...
Can I get Mr. Joo Seon Woo's room number?
Mr. Joo Seon Woo?
Look!
What to do?
What did you say?
Joo Seon Woo committed suicide?
What happened?
According to the front desk, Joo Seon Woo had dinner around 6:30.
Then he checked in around 6:50.
He called me around seven.
And he asked me to come by midnight.
He died at eleven.
What is it?
Joo Seon Woo
Is it something helpful?
I did not kill Seo Yoon Hyung.
The prosecutor's investigation is shameful.
What do you want me to do?
Joo Seon Woo's corpse will be arriving tomorrow.
You're the last one, Chief.
Please do this.
Please perform Joo Seon Woo's autopsy, Chief.
I'll take care of Prosecutor Jung.
Joo Seon Woo killed himself because of pressure from the investigation.
Are you saying you're going to stop the reinvestigation of Seo Yoon Hyung's case?
If we take care of this, nothing will bother us later.
What do you think?
It's the same as Lee Soo Jung.
All signs point to a homicide, but we'll have to do an autopsy to be sure.
Seo Yoon Hyung keeps coming in and out of the NFS.
When will this case ever end?
Where are you going?
It's been a while.
What are you doing at the NFS?
I was under the impression you don't work here anymore.
I was commissioned to come here today.
Commissioned?
Won't you ask me which case I've come for?
Which case?
I've come for Joo Seon Woo's case.
Joo Seon Woo's case?
As the prosecutor in charge, I've assigned Dr. Yoon to this case's autopsy.
This is a serious breach of authority.
All autopsies are assigned internally by the NFS.
Chief Jung Byung Do said something similar in the past.
And this is how I replied.
The prosecutor commissions the autopsy.
And the prosecutor in charge of this case is me.
What happened?
I don't know.
I was commissioned to come today.
An autopsy aims to identify the cause of death using scientific, objective evidence.
I'm sure you're well aware.
I will do that today.
No matter how long it takes, I'll show how calm and objective I can be.
So if you're all prepared, let's begin.
Victim: Joo Seon Woo.
Height: 175 cm. Weight: 75 kg.
Body found outside Hangook Hotel's back door.
Multiple injuries from falling.
Time of death estimated at 11:00 pm.
I'll start the incision.
Have you found the weapon?
Yes. We searched the area and found it in a trash can.
We've sent it over to the NFS to run some blood tests.
Will the suspect be indicted?
I think we'll need to look at the blood test results to be sure.
But why do you insist on meeting the suspect?
Well, I think I'd need to meet him in person to be more confident in my autopsy results.
Oh really? Let's go then.
Have a seat.
Can we speak alone please?
That's usually not allowed.
If something happens, call me right away.
Why did you call me here?
You're not even talking.
Was this the first time?
What?
Five years ago, a young girl from Oh Sang Eun's area died.
What are you talking about?
A girl in a high school uniform.
She was coming home from school.
You don't remember?
What are you talking about?
That female student...
Did you kill her?
What?
What sort of nonsense...
I...I'm really innocent!
I don't know anything.
Hammer? I haven't seen any hammer.
I haven't killed anyone!
I don't know anything about a plaid school uniform!
I'm telling the truth.
I didn't say anything about the uniform being plaid.
My mistake.
What's wrong? Calm down.
This is the police station.
What is it?
Doctor.
You!
I'm definitely going to catch you.
Got it?
Son of a bitch.
Have you still not found it?
Security footage of the main entrance, back door, and elevators from 10 to 11pm.
Have you handed them all over?
Yes.
Could I see the footage from other times?
The autopsy is finished.
The autopsy's conclusion?
Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon.
Please tell us your autopsy's conclusion.
Joo Seon Woo's cause of death...
Kang Seo Yeon?
Joo Seon Woo's estimated time of death is not eleven o'clock.
Joo Seon Woo's estimated time of death is not eleven
but 7pm.
Joo Seon Woo's cause of death is not from falling, but from being choked to death.
The nature of death is absolutely homicide.
