The person who killed your daughter. It's Lee Jung-moon, right?
Detective Oh, I can't believe you.
How can you involve someone like him like this?
I know everything now.
Your daughter was the last victim of Hwayeon-dong serial killing.
I know what you did to Lee Jung-moon.
The reason you involved Park Woong-cheol, Jung Tae-soo and Lee Jung-moon
and how the three and you are connected from something that happened 2 years ago.
I know it all.
I'll ask one thing, Detective Oh.
Whatever the past is like, present is important.
Contacting Lee Du-kwang to ask Park Woong-cheol to kill Lee Jung-moon.
Go quietly take care of that Lee Jung-moon guy.
Contacting Kim Do-sik to get Jung Tae-soo to move
to kill Lee Jung-moon.
Since killing Lee Jung-moon didn't work with Park Woong-cheol and Jung Tae-soo,
the person ordered to get rid of Park Woong-cheol and Jung Tae-soo too.
If you refuse,
then I was ordered to kill you too.
The person behind the incidents that our team went through,
is it you,
Detective Oh?
Tell me!
Oh Gu-tak!
Are you the criminal?
Yes.
That's right.
It's all me.
Is this the answer you want?
Detective Oh!
You said you found out everything about 2 years ago.
Yes...
That did happen 2 years ago,
and that's why I released them.
How...
How did you get this far?
How did what happened 2 years ago turn you into this?
Tropical Night
Gangseo Station crime...
[2 years ago]Let's see...
Is it alright to state Gangseo Station?
The sound of that seems a little funny...
I'm Detective Oh Gu-tak of Gangseo Station crime squad.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It's my first time doing it, so it's all very awkward.
Come on, it's nothing difficult.
Hey, then you come and do it.
No, no, your face is too ugly.
Let's do that one more time.
Secret to top arrest rate in Seoul area?
Uhm... My nickname is...
Is it OK to say my nickname?
My nickname is Mad Dog. Mad Dog.
Once I sniff something, regardless of the opponent,
I bite and don't let go.
That's where the name comes from.
I guess that's the secret. No negotiations with the outer force or temptations.
Catching criminals is the sole duty.
That's what it sounds like.
Negotiation is not something we do. That's what the politicians do.
Outer force...
that's obstruction of justice.
Temptation.
I think you're talking about the bribing
but that's a clear bribery.
If you don't have anything to do for about 5 years or
think $20,000 is some piece of joke,
then go ahead and try to bribe me.
Would you say that's like your principle?
- Or...- It's respect.
It's respect to the citizens.
Our citizens pay tax and
that's how we're making a living off on,
not having to worry about food, clothing and shelter.
This is respect.
We're government employees.
You bastard!
Hyungnim said not to kill you.
Just hand over this place.
Why did we get this case?
Dong-il turned in his resignation this morning.
Why?
This makes thirteen. Thirteenth case.
The media's calling it the Hwayeon-dong serial killing,
and I guess he just couldn't take it anymore.
The victim's information?
Jin Young-eun, 31, just an ordinary corporate employee.
No fingerprints or footprints for evidence?
If we had those, would this be a serial killing case? Hyung, you--
I asked, just in case. Jeez.
Damn, look how nicely he laid her.
As you can see, the basic pattern is identical.
Side stab as soon as he enters
and watches until the victim bleeds to death.
As the killer watches the victim dying slowly,
he is feeling more and more alive.
This pervert just gets high on that.
He clipped her nails.
The victim might have his DNA or blood left on them.
But that's not all.
He must wipe the victim's body with alcohol once dead.
That's why there's no fingerprint whatsoever.
Chang-joon... How crazier will this world get?
What are you saying?
The world wasn't this scary when we were growing up.
At least back then I don't think there were crimes we couldn't understand.
Are humans going crazy because the world is crazy
or is the world going crazy because humans are crazy?
It seems the world is changing but I'm not.
Dang it.
Request analysis on the solution used to clean the victim.
It's probably alcohol. Why bother?
Our job is tedious.
Just do it, alright?
I'm leaving now.
Here's nightclub equity transfer deed and signed document
that Kim Myung-sik won't ever lay his foot in this area.
Alright, good job.
It took exactly 25 days to clear up Seoul.
Woong-cheol, which area do you like?
Excuse me?
Yeongdeungpo? Yongsan?
Which area do you want?
Would you give me some time to think about it?
Think?
Think about what?
I get it.
Think about it. Whatever it is.
Thank you.
You're not thinking of quitting this, right?
I meant to give you this sooner. I'm sorry for the delay.
- You can take your time.- Oh, no, no!
You've been so considerate of the situation.
- I'll get this month's lesson fee as soon as possible.- Excuse me, Mr. Oh.
I'm sorry to tell you this
but I don't think I can teach Ji-yeon anymore.
Why suddenly?
- It's that...- Is it because of the lesson fee?
Don't worry about that. I will be prompt on that--
No, it's not that Mr. Oh.
I think you should consider sending her abroad.
Ji-yeon is too good to stay in Korea, honestly.
I see...
Daughter!
You heard it all, right?
What do you think? Do you want to go abroad?
It'd be nice.
But?
How can you get everything you want?
You didn't get everything you want.
You had to take care of a lonely senior citizen.
You said not to say senior citizen.
Daughter.
Why don't you ever ask to send you abroad or for more allowance?
I heard other kids stand up to their fathers.
You want me to be honest or tell you in a funny way?
In a funny way.
You're totally broke!
When did you get that shirt? The sleeves will fall off soon.
What about my shirt? I heard the messy worn out look is supposed to be the trend.
The trend and an actual worn out shirt is totally different.
Honestly,
why don't you ask me for allowance or anything else?
I don't want to hurt you.
It's not something that can happen by whining.
It's already enough with mortgage, utility and my lessons.
If I whine for more money and whine about studying abroad,
what about you? How do you live?
I know us eating together is all you wish for.
When did you grow up so much, my daughter.
Why ask when you raised me?
Eat up, the soup is getting cold.
No, no, I'll get it.
Detective Oh Gu-tak?
Who are you?
Hello, Detective Oh.
Welcome.
Thank you for coming.
Let's eat first.
Two things I don't do with gangs is respect and eating together.
You're here, so let's eat.
Are you trying to bribe me?
Is that why you wanted to see me?
Go ahead!
I'll arrest you for bribery.
As of today, I've taken over Seoul.
So?
For us to run business,
other detectives told me to earn your friendship.
They said that.
The things you did as you cleared out Myung-sik's gang,
like arson, assault, vandalism,
attempted murder, murder, etc.
You want me to let go of those?
That's why you're trying to bribe with some money?
I guess that's respect in your world.
Please excuse me.
Come in, with the briefcase.
A total of $50,000 with $50 bills.
It's money you shouldn't have problem taking.
$50,000 is nothing for you guys, huh?
I don't even have $5,000.
It's not something out of reach for you either.
Oh, man! I totally want some.
I need some money right now too.
If you want some, then take it.
Let's make it even with your bribery and my assault.
I'm going to have to prepare some big cases to get you.
I'll come with a big one. Understood?
Your daughter plays the piano?
That probably costs a lot, right?
All the lessons and tuition for studying abroad as well.
Your salary won't be enough.
No, it's not enough.
That's why I'm not in a good mood these days.
So don't you ever be in my sight again.
I'll eat you alive.
You're a commissioner, yet you don't have $50,000?
Aigoo... Here's a police with integrity!
Hey! You think I stack up money?
I'm in debt after my son got married.
When your daughter gets married, you'll understand.
So much blabbing when you have no money.
Look at you talking to your Hyung!
Have you contacted your friends?
Of course I have.
Forget $50,000, they don't even have $5,000.
No wonder we're friends. They're just like me.
I'll figure something out. Let's have a drink.
Man, the money I'm spending on drinks to borrow money...
Ji-yeon's piano teacher says
there's nothing more Ji-yeon can learn from Korea because she is so good.
Ji-yeon does her best in everything she does.
She's a hundred, no, a thousand times better than you.
You're right! She's better than me.
In reality, she takes care of me.
A senior citizen.
That's why, Hyungnim,
I...
want to be a real father to her this time.
I will make money somehow and let her go abroad to study
and make her into a world-famous pianist.
So you can live off of her when
she makes a lot of money?
That'd be great!
Ugh, what's up with this day drinking...
Take him home, alright?
Yes, father.
Geon-wook,
we made a promise, right?
Once I make commissioner, you'll resign from the police.
Remember?
Yes.
So are you going to quit or what?
I didn't mean Commissioner of Seoul.
I meant Commissioner of South Korea.
You got to step up a bit, dad.
What?
I'm going now!
Detective! Detective?
Who are you?
It's me Geon-wook.
- Geon-wook? - Yes.
Man... It's Geon-wook.
- I'm leaving now. - Yeah, go now.
He's making a fool out of his father...
Yeah, it's me.
Do you remember the chemical analysis?
The results are out.
Okay, I got it.
White kerosene?
The killer used white kerosene to clean the victim's body.
Where can you get that?
What do you mean where, of course at the gas station.
You know gas heaters? White kerosene is used for that often.
Where else?
Well...
I'm not sure.
You're saying since no one uses a heater during summer,
you want to investigate all gas stations near our station?
When will we do all that?
Why? Is it too much trouble?
I told you that's our job.
Alright, I'll shut up.
It doesn't matter how many days it takes.
Check the surveillance camera
to find anyone who bought white kerosene from near gas station.
And check footages from the crime scene and you'll find the killer.
What is it?
- Detective Oh Gu-tak?- Yes.
I'm calling from Hwagok Patrol Division, about your daughter.
She was involved in karaoke
but I don't think she knew what it was about.
She just saw an advertisement about making money part-time.
But once she found out it was that kind of job,
she tried to leave
and got into an argument with a customer.
Daughter...
Daddy is here.
How are you feeling?
Are you alright?
You can't believe those high paying part-time jobs.
They're very dangerous.
Now you know, so be careful--
Dad...
How come you're not angry?
You know what happened...
Why aren't you mad?
You didn't do anything wrong.
It's all my fault, so just be mad at me!
Just get mad at me, scream or yell whatever.
The reason you went there,
why you didn't tell me...
I know so well. How can I get mad at you?
I have done nothing for you.
I will make the money to send you abroad.
No, forget it.
I'm not going to go abroad.
I'll just... I'll just give up.
No, I can get that money. I can make that $50,000--
No!
I'm not going abroad.
I now know what kind of world I live in
and what kind of world I have to live in.
I know it, so I'm going to give up everything.
It makes me even more miserable dreaming,
so...
so... I can't dream anymore, Dad.
I just touched her legs, but then she... Jeez.
Who do you think you are?
You bastard! Let me go!
How dare you! Bastard!
How dare! Bastard!
Let me go, dang it!
How dare you make my daughter give up her dream!
Why...
How can money make a person this miserable?
WHY?
I thought you said you don't eat with a gangster?
All the crimes you've committed in our district,
arson, assault, vandalism,
murder, attempted murder.
I'll let them all go.
But, I have one condition.
The man who helped you take over Seoul,
the one who actually committed all those crimes,
Park Woong-cheol.
Just hand him over.
Let's make it a deal by putting it all on him.
Let's pick another one.
He's my little brother from home--
Hey, Lee Du-kwang.
Take the offer while it's valid.
I'll be back later.
Then,
as soon as you walk out with this money,
you and I are on the same boat.
You and I are a family now.
You know Hwayeon-dong serial killing, right?
There's a suspect and
we're on our way to his house right now.
Could you tell us about the case?
Hey, how can I tell you about the case?
Will you edit well? Then I'll tell you...
It's been a little over a month.
We discovered that he used white kerosene when he cleaned his victim's body.
We went through all the surveillance camera footages of near gas stations
and got a list of those who purchased it,
and compared with anyone caught
on surveillance cameras of all 14 crime scenes.
It took us about a month,
and we finally found one.
We're on our way to catch him.
Who is it?
I'm from the apartment office.
The apartment office?
Yes.
Where's Lee Jung-moon?
Where is Lee Jung-moon hiding?
Lee Jung-moon, you're under arrest for the Hwayeon-dong case.
You know from the movies and dramas, right?
You're under arrest without a warrant right now.
We'll file a warrant within 48 hours,
so let's make this easy.
Why do you look so out of it?
Are you hungry?
Do you need to eat?
Alright.
It's all computerized these days,
but I like this way better.
Name.
OK, let's forget about the formality. Forget it.
Jung-moon, why did you kill them?
Each victim was killed in the same way.
You must know the method, since you killed them.
OK, let's say you're not the killer.
What's up with white kerosene?
Because of my girlfriend.
That's why.
You punk! You do talk.
I thought you were deaf.
Anyway.
What about your girlfriend? Why?
My girlfriend is an art major. She does oil painting.
Brush is important in oil painting and white kerosene makes the brush maintenance easier.
That's why I bought white kerosene.
Are you sure about that?
Shall I confirm it for you?
You can call her.
Why were you at all those crime scenes?
Why?
Can you not tell me?
Say it! Say you went to kill.
You went there to kill people,
right?
I can't...
remember.
Huh?
I can't remember
why I went there.
Aigoo... That's easy, huh?
Everything is solved by saying you can't remember.
Then I'll help you remember.
Look well now, Bastard!
December, Yeomcheon-dong, Yoo Ha-na.
January, Choi Hee-ju. Remember this girl you killed?
Remember?
I can't remember.
If you can't remember, I'll make you remember, you scumbag.
Now, look at the picture! Here!
Sinwol-dong, Park Hee-seok.
Yeomcheon-dong, Park Ji-won. There were three people killed in March.
Why? Was it boring to stay at home since the weather was getting warm?
I said I don't know.
If you can't remember, remember until you remember, you bastard!
Remember clearly and tell me!
Tell me, so that those buried in ground can be in peace, you bastard!
Here! Look at it carefully!
Kim Hee-won. You killed her, right?
Remember?
I really...
can't remember.
Look until you remember.
He's not confessing?
Yes.
He showed up at each scene and bought white kerosene in hot summer.
We have the evidence but...
There's no witness nor evidence.
All we have is
confession.
This is the last case for me on the field.
Do you understand the meaning?
He's saying not to ruin him making commissioner.
It's been one day, so we haven't got much time. How are we going to get his confession?
What do you mean how?
We just got to smash his head.
Don't forget to contact Dr. Kim and ask to come.
Kim Mi-sook? Why?
Lie detector?
Did you book your flight? When?
Huh? The 24th?
The 24th is the day after tomorrow.
Hey, I'm not ready yet.
Well...
When you go, you'll be away for months.
- Wait a moment, please.- Yes.
Daughter! I'll call again soon.
Detective, what will happen to him now?
Take a seat.
It'll be determined once the investigation is over.
Miss, do you paint?
Excuse me?
Oh, I major in art.
Like oil painting?
Yes.
When you wash your brushes,
do you use white kerosene?
There's specific brush cleaning solution,
it's too expensive, so sometimes white kerosene is used.
Do you use white kerosene?
Yes.
Did Lee Jung-moon buy it for you? He's your boyfriend and you live together.
Yes.
About your boyfriend. What was he like normally?
Did he seem like a type who'd kill someone?
No.
He's not someone like that.
Alright.
Ugh, what a dumb question.
It has no effect in court. Will this be enough?
Psychological pressure.
He'll confess if it goes well.
Is your name Lee Jung-moon?
Yes.
- Truth.- Let's get to the point.
We don't have time.
Lee Jung-moon, have you killed a person before?
Yes.
Truth.
Why is he confessing suddenly?
I'll show you a few pictures.
If there's someone you've killed,
please say yes.
Yoo Ha-na. Did you kill her?
No.
Truth.
Choi Hee-ju. Did you kill her?
No.
Truth.
Park Hee-seok. Did you kill her?
No.
- Truth.- Why does it all say truth?
What's happening?
No.
Now last one.
Kim Hee-won. Did you kill her?
No.
I did not kill her.
Truth.
Then who did you kill?
Who is it, bastard?
What's the answer that you want?
"I killed them all".
Is this the answer you want?
Fine.
I'll tell you whatever you want me to say.
I killed them all.
Lie.
That bastard.
Hwayeon-dong serial killer. That's me.
Lie.
I'll be punished since I'm a murderer,
Detective Oh Gu-tak.
Lie.
Listen carefully, you bastard.
If you're not the killer like you just said, we won't meet again.
But if you are, then we will meet one day again.
Then, I'll kill you.
What is this?
I found out whom Lee Jung-moon killed.
Burglars killed his parents at their home,
and Lee Jung-moon killed those burglars.
That's self-defense.
Take a look at it.
38 points. Showing indication of psychopath.
Psychopath?
Yes, psychopath.
I'm going to meet with the case prosecutor.
When? 48 hours is almost up, so he'll be out soon.
Aigoo... aigoo...
Hey! Can we not catch him once he's released?
He won't be able to flee anyway.
Just keep an eye on him.
Detective Oh Gu-tak!
Hey, daughter!
What brings you here? I'll be going home soon.
Then let's go together.
I'll fly out tomorrow, so I won't be able to see you for a while.
I want to see you as much as I can today.
- Oh Ji-yeon! - Yes?
Are you happy you're going abroad to study?
Honestly, I'm worried about Detective Oh,
but yeah I'm happy.
Don't worry about me.
Go there and learn everything you wanted
and live the dream you've dreamt of.
- Understand?- Yes, understand.
Your daughter is very pretty.
Who is that person?
Are you okay?
Man, why isn't she home yet?
What is it?
Who?
Hey, Daughter! You should be home already. Your flight is early.
I have an emergency so I'll be right back.
Go ahead and eat when you get home. I've made kimchi stew.
Detective Oh Gu-tak!
Why did you want to see me?
Lee Jung-moon...
You know Lee Jung-moon well, right?
Dad?
Dad, is that you?
Hyungnim...
Are you not...
going to let your daughter go?
It's already been 10 days.
This is not right.
Let's just drink.
You have to let your daughter go now, Gu-tak.
I said, let's just drink, Hyungnim!
They say when your parents pass away,
you bury them in the ground and
when your child passed away,
you bury her in your heart.
No!
Don't just blab whatever you read in books!
My Ji-yeon...
died because of me.
So how can I bury her?
That's why I can't bury Ji-yeon in my heart.
I can't do that.
I can't bury her in my heart
until I catch that bastard.
I can't bury Ji-yeon in my heart!
I can't do that...
I'll catch that bastard who killed Ji-yeon,
rip him apart, piece by piece,
and then I will...
bury Ji-yeon.
So...
don't blab.
Don't try to consolidate.
Just drink.
I'll stop the autopsy.
D-dad...
Where is she going, all dressed up?
I don't know, maybe she's off to meet another man.
What is he doing here?
Remember what I said?
When you're the killer, we'll meet again and I'll kill you.
I'm not the killer.
Don't you die! You bastard!
Hyung!
Let me go, dang it!
That scumbag... He's the one who killed my daughter.
I have to kill him with my hands! Let me go, dang it!
We're here to decide on on the level of suspension of Detective Oh Gu-tak.
Do you reject to the reason and the level of your suspension?
I asked if you do not reject.
I see no sign of remorse, Detective Oh Gu-tak.
Oh Gu-tak
Does Lee Jung-moon know you work here?
Don't you want to get out of this life?
You want to succeed with painting
but your father abandoned you
and your mother died 5 years ago of cancer.
Man, what a messy life.
What is it that you want to say?
You want to paint
but you don't have money,
so you work here.
You even got paid in advanced.
Your boss says he's going to sell you off somewhere else.
I think I can fix your problem.
You'll be able to continue to paint.
What is it that you want?
Let's do a job.
It's something you got to do.
It's related to Jung-moon?
Then I can't do it.
Think carefully.
You want to live life this forever?
Is someone going to award you for keeping that faith with him?
You're not married to him.
Why are you trying to ruin your life because of Lee Jung-moon?
Let me go. let me go!
If you give up Lee Jung-moon, you can gain a lot.
You don't have to worry about getting sold somewhere else.
You won't have to work here. Instead you'll be able to paint.
I'll get rid of that debt.
Do you not understand?
Yang Yoo-jin, it's a chance your life can change.
Why weren't we able to catch Lee Jung-moon?
It's because we have no evidence on him.
If we found the weapon or his fingerprints at the scene,
we didn't have to get this far.
But do you know what's better?
Survivor.
The victim he tried to kill but he couldn't finish.
With that, it's game over.
What happened? Huh?
What is going on?
Are you okay?
What happened?
Evidence...
Victim...
With these two, there's no problem catching Lee Jung-moon.
Don't move!
Yang Yoo-jin, you must become the witness.
Victim and witness.
One day, he said
he has killed more than 10 people.
Connecting that to Hwayeon-dong killing,
he's gone for good.
Will you be able to say what you told me at the court as well?
He said he's the killer of the Hwayeon-dong case,
but the police can't catch him
because he left no evidence.
Yoo-jin,
why are you doing this to me?
Don't think about guilt,
sympathy, or compassion. Don't think about it.
Guilt is what Lee Jung-moon must feel.
You only sympathize with yourself.
Here's the verdict.
Defendant Lee Jung-moon
will be sentenced to life.
Why is it
that you want to kill someone in prison?
It's hot.
Here...
It's too hot here.
I can't sleep.
It's tropical night every night.
You think it'll be all over
once this tropical night
is over?
There's a good match
for this job.
His name is Jung Tae-soo.
He turned himself in recently.
He's at Cheongsong, where that man who killed your daughter is.
He's the best in the field, too.
I don't know why he turned himself but...
he won't have a problem
killing this one here.
Before he dies,
is there something you want to hear from him?
Is there something you want to hear from his mouth?
The person who killed your daughter is me.
That's what I want to hear.
If he's not the killer...
if he's not my daughter's killer...
then I won't be able to live.
