Episode 18
Is this too much?
Maybe I should have picked out a different-colored lunch box.
The number you have dialed is not in service.
What is this? I came here for him.
[City Hunter]
Tired of city life, only one thing entices you.
First Mission
Late at night, a female high school student walks home.
In your hands is an everyday hammer.
If you take her life without being discovered
Mission Cleared
Second Mission
The company you failed to get in after an interview.
The girl who joined the company in your place.
Third Mission
The spoiled brat born into a rich family.
Final Mission
The hysterical female teacher who made your life difficult during school.
Dr. Go Da Kyung? What's the matter?
I have a case I was hoping you'd investigate.
I'd rather not discuss it over the phone, so I sent you the information by email.
Please look it over.
Sure. I will.
How much is it?
4 dollars.
By the way, you must be a teacher.
Yes. Something like that.
Thank you!
Goodbye.
The chicken is here.
Okay, okay.
Where's Lee Ho Jin?
He's over there.
Hey, does Prosecutor Jung from the Eastern Branch...
Does she live around here?
No, she doesn't live around here.
But she just came out of the convenience store.
The convenience store?
This is Jung Woo Jin.
It's me.
Why did you turn your phone off?
My cell phone battery went dead.
That usually happens during a stakeout.
I'm calling from my co-worker's cell phone.
Are you in the area by any chance?
What? No.
But why isn't he coming out of the storage room?
What? Why?
Something's fishy.
I'll be back.
But did you come to see me?
I said I didn't!
What? You did come to see me!
No, I'm at home.
You were just at the convenience store, right?
How did you know that?
I'm staking out in front of the convenience store.
If you're not far, come back so I can see you.
No. You're working, so I'll just go.
Hello? Hello?
He's not here! Lee Ho Jin's not here!
Hello! Hello!
Jung Woo Jin!
Hello? Hello?!
Are you sure Prosecutor Jung just left this convenience store?
Yeah. Why?
The person you're trying to reach is unavailable.
The most important task during your mission:
You must kill your opponent completely.
If you don't kill your victim completely, you cannot move onto the next level.
You must kill your victim completely.
Prosecutor Jung! Jung Woo Jin!
He hit me with a hammer...
Are you okay? You're okay, right?
What are you doing? Go after him!
You have to catch the criminal.
No! No! No!
911! 911!
This is Bangho-dong...
Wake up!
Get a hold of yourself!
Put your hands up.
Just take all the money.
I'm a police officer, you son of a bitch!
Oh.
You must have liked that woman.
Shoot.
What?
You're pissed.
So shoot.
Lee Ho Jin. You are under arrest for being a suspect.
You have the right to an attorney.
You have the right to remain silent.
What happened?
It's all my fault. She came to see me.
How is she?
Fortunately, the impact was a bit off, so the blow wasn't fatal.
We performed surgery to remove a blood clot.
But there's still a lot of swelling and pressure on the brain.
The most important thing is for the patient to recover her consciousness.
What happened to Lee Ho Jin?
He was arrested for being a suspect.
We're collecting evidence now.
Everything is based off of his script.
This is the script for a game Lee Ho Jin tried to have produced.
These are not crimes without motive.
Dr. Min also said there was a high probability that these crimes were premeditated.
But Prosecutor Jung isn't a teacher.
But she looks like the character sketch.
He probably mistook her for a teacher.
You said he worked on this for five years?
My sister was his first mission.
How could a person have such thoughts and do such actions?
Lee Ho Jin's been arrested.
He'll get the punishment he deserves.
What did you do with the weapon?
What do you mean?
The hammer you used to kill the victims.
I don't understand why you're doing this to me.
I really don't know anything.
Recognize this?
The game script you tried to have produced.
All the cases that happened match up.
Are you still going to deny it?
Is this it? The game script that Lee Ho Jin wrote?
That's right. All the situations and targets described
match up with the victims' deaths.
That includes Prosecutor Jung.
I was a classmate of Prosecutor Jung.
This must be thoroughly investigated.
He will be punished for this.
How is Prosecutor Jung? Is she still unconscious?
Yes.
If we get an arrest warrant, the preliminary hearing will start within 48 hours.
Look into the crime scene for additional evidence beforehand.
Just confess now. OK?
Lee Ho Jin!
Read it. Read it!
Stage Two. After the first level is cleared
the delightful game of murder is upgraded.
The opposition is more formidable than in Stage One.
The thrill of murder becomes that much greater.
Stage Two. First step.
Despised by every student, the school dean.
Level of power: 50 points.
Everyone has left school for home.
He patrols the halls late at night, and your game begins.
Stage Two. After the first level is cleared
the delightful game of murder is upgraded.
The opposition is more formidable than in Stage One.
The thrill of murder becomes that much greater.
You should have been more careful.
Hello?
Yes, Dr. Yoon.
It's exactly the same as the script.
A school dean during night duty, even the weapon used is the same.
That's impossible! Lee Ho Jin was in jail last night.
It's an accomplice.
What do you mean?
There's an accomplice working off the same script.
We need to make Lee Ho Jin talk.
Hey, what are you saying?
Another murder happened based on that script?
That doesn't make any sense!
Lee Ho Jin was in jail all night!
That's why we have to ask how something as impossible as this happened!
Who is it?
What?
Your accomplice. Who is it? Talk!
Officer. That's enough.
Officer! Let go of him!
You step outside.
What do you mean! That punk knows something!
Officer Choi! Wait outside.
I don't know what you're talking about.
But if there's something you want to know
call that woman here.
What did you say?
Get out!
I don't want to talk to you guys. It's not fun.
Come here! Come here, you bastard!
You should know better. I have the right to remain silent.
If you want me to talk, bring that woman.
That female medical examiner.
Seriously, stop it!
That punk's totally out of his mind.
We don't have to listen to what he has to say.
We don't have the evidence to prove that he's the murderer.
We don't have weapons or any witnesses!
How is Prosecutor Jung? Is she still unconscious?
She's the only witness we have.
- If she doesn't wake up-- - Don't say that!
But it's true! If we don't have her testimony
all we have to work with is the script!
And if that's not enough, we have to let him go.
We'll lose the accomplice too!
If you try to do anything, you're dead.
So you wanted to see me.
I was hoping it would only be the two of us.
It's only the two of us in this room.
Why don't you talk?
I'm not the one in a rush.
Don't you have something you want to ask me?
Never mind if you don't.
Now talk.
Who's the person doing the murders according to your script?
Only if you answer my question first.
If you do, I'll answer too.
Is there a moment in your life that you want to do over again the most?
What is it you're trying to say?
What were you thinking?
When you saw your sister bleeding to death
what were you thinking?
I heard everything. You had a chance to help your sister.
If you had only met her outside
you would be living an ordinary life with your sister now.
What if, just what if...
if you could turn back time...
is the moment you'd turn back to...
that night?
- It's your story, right? - What?
You were rejected by the first girl you ever liked.
You threw yourself into studying, but you couldn't get into college.
You always got dumped when on a blind date.
You never got the job you interviewed for.
Isn't it all about you?
About how you want revenge.
You put it all into your script.
Aren't you the one who wants to turn back time?
You want to start over as the top-ranked kid in your class.
I'm going to kill you--
But you can't turn back time.
That's why you have to live your best at every moment.
Even if you don't tell us anything, we're going to get you.
We'll get you and your friend out there who's killing more people.
Both of you will pay.
Wait and see.
[Recording]
I'm positive that the script relates to Lee Ho Jin's life.
When I brought up his past, it definitely got to him.
When you found your sister bleeding to death
what were you thinking?
You could have saved your sister's life.
If I consult with Dr. Min at the NFS
we might come up with a better analysis.
Understood.
Officer Choi and Officer Woo, interrogate the staff at the game company.
The only ones who know the script's contents are the 7 people who work there.
There's a high probability that one of them is the accomplice.
What do we do if the media finds out?
Five victims have either died or been injured already.
If they find out
we might lose the accomplice.
I'll block the media, so don't worry.
The most important thing is to find the accomplice before there are more victims.
How's Prosecutor Jung?
She'll wake up again.
She's a tough cookie.
That day, did Prosecutor Jung...
What? What is it?
Ah, never mind.
You'll regret it.
The game isn't over yet!
Stage Two. Second Mission.
You want to kill just thinking about him.
The senior official who made my army experience a living hell.
At a bar near a university
a soldier is having a drink with his friends.
When the soldier returns to his unit, he will inevitably bully someone.
You must take his life before this happens.
This is Yoon Ji Hoon.
Has anyone reported a dead soldier in Seoul?
There's been no such report.
OK. If someone reports such a case, please let me know.
Cheers!
Yes, Officer Choi?
Is it the same as the script again?
That's right.
But the problem is the next mission.
On your birthday, when you should be celebrated
No one remembers your birthday.
Unleash your vengeance on those happy people.
Go to a place full of couples, and kill ten of them.
Then your mission will be complete.
This is urgent.
We need to stop him before there are more victims.
Who's this? What are you doing at the NFS?
I have a favor to ask.
A favor?
Six people have already died.
A female high school student, a salarywoman, a college student...
One at a time, they die as it's written in the script.
Last night, we found a corporal on the street who was struck dead by a hammer.
If things go according to the script, the next event is even worse.
The script calls for ten people to be killed.
So what is it you want to say?
I want to request that the dean and soldier's bodies be brought over to the NFS.
Please prioritize their autopsies.
We'll decide the priority of the NFS's autopsies.
Their autopsies may give us a clue.
Our schedule today is filled with autopsies.
This is a matter that concerns the lives of innocent people.
You don't work at the NFS anymore!
I know you have something against me.
I don't have a very good impression of you either.
No, it's a bad impression.
But this is not about us, but about innocent lives.
Do you think I'll accept this?
If you have some integrity left as a medical examiner.
- Fine. I accept. - Chief.
Finding out how the dead have died
is about securing the nation's safety, which is the duty of the NFS.
The NFS has an obligation to our people.
It's difficult to find clues of the killer's identity through an autopsy.
You're aware of this?
I'm aware.
If we want to find that it was the same killer and weapon in both cases
performing the autopsies at the same time will reduce the margin of error.
Did you investigate the crime scene?
You take the first autopsy.
I'll take the other.
Bring the two bodies Dr. Yoon mentioned to the NFS.
Yes.
Are you doing this because of your faith and conscience as a medical examiner?
Or is there another reason?
Is there a reason for a medical examiner to perform an autopsy?
Victim: Jung Do Hoon.
Age: 53. Height: 182cm. Weight: 82kg.
Three bone fractures on the left side of the head.
Bruises on hands, legs, and shoulders.
Based on analysis of the bone fractures
the weapon is a hammer with an octagonal head.
Deceased: Kim Jung Ho.
Age: 22. Height: 186cm. Weight: 69kg.
We also did an analysis of the bone fractures.
Like Jung Do Hoon, the weapon is a hammer with an octagonal head.
- Let's start the autopsy. - Let's start the autopsy.
Were you close with Lee Ho Jin?
No. We barely spoke to each other.
He was very introverted.
Where were you last night from 10:00pm to 3:00am?
I was drinking with friends.
I was working overtime. The director was there, too.
Was there anyone unusual on your staff?
Someone with a strange personality?
Everyone's pretty normal.
We like hanging out with friends and playing games.
We're too busy working to pay attention to things like that.
What kind of person was Lee Ho Jin?
Well...
He was a bit strange. He had trouble socializing.
What kind of person was Lee Ho Jin?
We barely talked, so I'm not sure.
Yes?
Hello.
- Have you listened to the tape? - Yes.
What do you think?
Based on his speech, I don't think he's acting or lying.
Based on what he said, just as you suggested, the script that he wrote
is probably based on his own life.
It seems what drives his actions most
is the suffering and social trauma he experienced during high school.
Yes, I understand.
Nobody has a criminal record, and none of them lived near Lee Ho Jin.
How about their schools?
None of them went to the same school.
We even looked into their families and schools, but there's nothing.
So there's no one inside the company?
Lee Ho Jin might have showed the script to someone outside the company.
Hello?
Officer Choi, have you looked into the employees at the game company?
Yes, we just finished our interviews, but there are no leads.
Have you gotten an analysis of the recording?
Yes. I think we might find something if we look into Lee Ho Jin's high school years.
You mean Seong Il High School in Goheung-dong?
Dr. Go Da Kyung?
What's wrong? Is it a place you know?
It's the school my sister and I attended.
Kim Jung Ho died of an internal brain hemorrhage caused by cerebral trauma.
Type of death is homicide.
Jung Do Hoon is also the same.
Before Jung Do Hoon died, he put up quite a fight with the killer.
That's right. When I inspected the crime scene
there were obvious signs that there had been a fight.
But it's difficult to identify the killer based on bruises.
What about Kim Jung Ho?
Although Kim Jung Ho has a strong build
he was intoxicated when he was attacked.
He didn't have control over his body's movements.
It's very possible he couldn't stand up to the killer.
The killer is definitely right-handed.
Both Kim and Jung were struck on the left side of the head.
That's right. But what's strange is that they were both hit above the temple.
When someone's usually hit with a blunt object
the direction of the hit usually comes from the top.
That way, they can kill in one blow.
But they weren't hit from above.
They held the hammer and attacked from the side.
You lose accuracy when you attack from the side.
It's strange to use this kind of position.
If the killer used the hammer while fighting Jung Do Hoon
it would have been difficult to hit from the top.
Kim Jung Ho probably staggered a lot because he was intoxicated.
If Kim Jung Ho was also hit on the side of the head
causing two fractures.
Perhaps it was a short person.
If the attacker is shorter than the victim
he would swing the hammer upwards.
Even if he was short, if we add the length of his arm and the hammer
it'd be over two meters.
So it's possible for someone 170cm tall to hit someone with a height of 180cm from the top.
We can't estimate the attacker's height based on bone fractures alone.
If he had hurt his finger
he might not have had proper control of the hammer.
Regardless of the grip on the hammer
the swing could have still garnered enough speed to have hurt the victim.
Even if he had hurt his finger
he still could have killed someone.
When someone murders, it's inevitable that a pattern of killing will be revealed.
Both victims were injured on the side of the head.
Shoulder.
Shoulder?
He could kill people with an injured shoulder?
It's possible that instead of a sprain or a bone fracture, his rotor cuff was damaged.
Rotor cuff damage?
When the arm is raised at a certain angle
he can't raise his arm any higher because of the pain.
If the tendon between the arm and shoulder is damaged
even if he could lift the hammer, he couldn't raise it very high.
If he doesn't have a cast, he might be taking drugs or physical therapy to ease the pain.
Hey! Hey!
How long have you been at the hospital?
Think you're the only one here whose shoulder hurts?
Got it.
I know who it is.
There's someone in the company who might be a suspect.
I see that ultimately, you're the last person to protect these people.
Let's conclude the autopsy.
Officer Choi, it's me. I know who it is.
What?
It's one of the company's employees.
Really? Are you sure?
Who is it?
I don't know his name.
He's 170cm tall.
Weight is about 65kg.
How can I tell just based on that?
That's all I can tell you for now.
I'm on my way to the company.
So meet me there.
I'll head over.
Got it.
Why does he keep calling for us when we're busy?
Do you all know you have to get the work done by today?
Yes.
- Good luck! - OK, sir.
Hey.
Still hurts?
You're still not getting better.
What's your condition again?
It's rotor cuff damage.
[Seong Il High School]
How do I look?
Are you that happy to be going to the same school I went to?
Of course!
Why are you so happy when you'll always be compared to your perfect sister?
The teachers loved me during school.
I'm still excited.
When I graduate
I'm even going to the same university as you.
Stop joking around!
Do you want to give up being a woman like me?
I'm so tired! You're really something!
I still want to be like you.
Stop clinging to me, you booger.
No.
Yes, Teacher.
I've actually been waiting for you to call.
Have you looked into what I asked you?
Of course.
My top student Go Da Kyung is requesting it after all.
Thank you.
You said you wanted to know more about Lee Ho Jin?
Yes.
I spoke with his homeroom teacher
and apparently, he was quiet and had a stellar record. A model student.
But he said there was a strange incident once.
Really?
He was heard saying to a female teacher, "I'm going to kill you."
His parents came to school to smooth it over.
And you said you wanted to know about his friends?
Yes!
They say he didn't have many friends because he was so quiet.
But in his freshman year, there was one student he was close with.
[Woo Jae Won]
Woo Jae Won?
The student's name was Woo Jae Won?
Yes, that's right. Woo Jae Won.
Who is he?
He has tendon damage on his right shoulder.
I can pick him out.
What's going on?
Where's the employee who said his shoulder hurt?
What shoulder?
Do you mean Woo Jae Won?
He just left.
Where did he go?
What on earth is going on?
We just have something to ask him.
Do you know where he went?
What's today's date?
The 27th. Why?
Woo Jae Won's Special Birthday
We have to stop him.
We need to track him down.
I'll go with you.
No, it's dangerous.
I know his face, so I should go with you.
Yes, I understand. Please send more officers there.
He's at Wang Shim Lee subway station.
Mr. Woo Jae Won?
Who's this?
We know what you're planning to do. Stop now.
I know who you are.
You're the officer.
If you don't want to rot in prison for the rest of your life, stop right now.
You know what. This world to me right now is already a prison.
Sorry.
I'm a little busy right now. I'm hanging up.
Goodbye.
Found it.
A shopping mall in Seongdong-gu.
Have you found him?
He's in Seongdong-gu.
It's the shopping mall in front of Wang Shim Lee subway station.
Third Mission.
It's your birthday.
On the day you should be celebrated
no one remembers your birthday.
Unleash your vengeance on those happy people.
Woo Jae Won isn't answering his phone.
Let's split up here.
You go that way.
I'll go this way.
- Hello? - Doctor, I found out who it is.
We found out too.
We're here, but we don't know where to look.
Are you at the Wang Shim Lee shopping mall by any chance?
How do you know that?
It's where they hung out during high school. They met up in front of the fountain.
The fountain?
An arcade full of couples.
Kill ten people in the same area.
The first victim is going to be a doctor.
Drop it. Drop it now!
Today around 5pm at Wang Shim Lee
a man in his 20s armed with a knife
was subdued by the police.
This man was reported
to have been lurking around the shopping mall.
The police refuses to comment until further investigation.
They have barred the media from interfering.
Prosecutor Jung. Are you awake?
Where am I?
It's the hospital.
Don't you remember how you came here?
Prosecutor Jung. Prosecutor Jung!
Jung Woo Jin!
Officer Choi.
Where's Officer Choi?
Is he all right?
Sir.
Go Da Hee, Oh Sang Eun, Lee Sa Ra.
Jung Woo Jin, Jung Do Hoon, Kim Jung Ho.
You may not know their names.
But you'd probably recognize their faces.
Some of them were probably killed by Lee Ho Jin and you.
Some of them you probably killed by yourself.
Jung Do Hoon and Kim Jung Ho you killed yourself. Who killed the rest?
Answer me!
If you go on like this, you could be charged for all the crimes.
The game script.
Lee Ho Jin wrote it, right?
And then you decided that both of you would start killing. Answer me!
- I didn't encourage him to do it. - What?
Ho Jin knows nothing.
The script, the murders...
It's all my doing. I did it myself!
Woo Jae Won!
Prosecutor Jung.
Are you all right?
Let's have a talk.
Is it okay for you to be out already?
What did Woo Jae Won say?
He said Lee Ho Jin wasn't involved and that he did all the crimes himself.
But if we look into it further
we should find proof that Lee Ho Jin was involved.
Woo Jae Won is right.
What?
When it happened, the only person I saw was Woo Jae Won.
What?
I remember it well.
Lee Ho Jin wasn't there.
That's impossible.
Lee Ho Jin is obviously the main suspect.
We can't detain Lee Ho Jin any longer.
But...
Lee Ho Jin's parents hired an attorney, who has applied for a review.
The court's just accepted it.
Lee Ho Jin must be released.
That's ridiculous.
Can't you just say that you saw Lee Ho Jin?
You didn't just hear that.
We're basically assisting a murderer now.
Lee Ho Jin's game isn't over yet.
There's still his final mission.
Kill the vulture that you've been avoiding and conquer the city.
Vulture means the guards in the game.
Lee Ho Jin's probably going to go after someone who tried to catch him.
Lee Ho Jin will be put under 24-hour surveillance.
You officers confiscate all documents in Woo Jae Won's computer.
Then hand those over to the NFS.
You'll find something related to Lee Ho Jin.
You're going to the hospital, right?
I'll take you.
I'm sorry I can't escort you home.
Worry about yourself.
If things go according to Lee Ho Jin's script
You're the one most in danger.
Who is it?
My nephew.
You have a nephew?
He's a tall and strong kid.
Can I come in for a moment?
Is it fun?
What is?
The work you do.
I think it'd be too disgusting for me.
Why are you here?
You know why I'm here.
When did you go to the U.S.?
I heard that you went to the U.S. to investigate how Jung Seok Hoon died.
Seok Hoon's mother came to find me yesterday.
A medical examiner told her that Seok Hoon's death was a homicide, not an accident.
He suggested that she reinvestigate.
Because it's the truth.
Prosecutors, police, even the NFS.
They all gave up.
But you don't know how to give up, Doctor.
I already told you.
I'm not the sort of person who gives up easily.
You're right.
I would have been disappointed if you'd given up.
Give it a try.
See how much you can do.
I'm that confident.
Hello?
It's me.
How are you?
I'm okay.
But there's a problem.
Lee Ho Jin was released.
What? What do you mean?
Woo Jae Won claims he committed the crimes alone. He covered up for Lee Ho Jin.
We couldn't hold onto him.
I thought you ought to know.
I understand. Take care of yourself.
Kill the vultures whom you've avoided till now.
Then take over the city.
Yes, this is Go Da Kyung.
This is the analysis department.
You asked us to contact you after we looked through Woo Jae Won's computer files.
Yes.
Yes, I understand.
[Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon]
Kill the vultures whom you've avoided till now.
Then take over the city.
