Drop the knife!
I'm a police officer on duty.
You have the right to remain silent.
I said, I'm on duty!
I'm a police officer.
I'm from Violent Crimes Unit 2 at Seoul Central Police Station.
- Shut it, you punk! - I'm Sergeant Jeon Soo Young.
Is she on our team?
What's so special about her? Was this the surprise?
What's so special about you that I have to tell you everything?
I don't have to report to you.
Come on.
You complained about not having enough workforce.
Are you complaining about getting help?
She's a suspect for murder.
This is nonsense.
- Did you see her stab the guy? - What?
She's your assistant.

(Episode 3: The Girl in the Green Dress)
Change into this.
Put what you were wearing into this.
When you... Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Put it down. I said, put it down.
Take it off after I leave.
Ji Heon! Ji Heon.
I heard that the new girl got arrested.
Is it true?
Were you drinking that?
No, I'm going to have it now.
Throw that out.
You only use me when you need it.
- Name. - Jeon Soo Young.
Date of birth, March 17, 1990.
Occupation, police officer.
I'm in the Violent Crimes Unit 2 at the Seoul Central Police Station.
Your relationship to the victim?
Police and suspect.
Why did you kill him?
Do you think someone dying is funny?
My heart aches for the one that died.
However, I'm stunned by this situation.
That's why I ended up laughing.
I'm sorry.
Tell me. Why are you stunned?
It was my first day of work,
but I was startled because I couldn't find anyone from my team.
Captain Hong came many hours later.
He told me that my superior is you, Lieutenant Kang Ji Heon.
While looking around for you,
I ended up finding Sergeant Kwon Chan Wook.
I'm getting the signal from the north coast...
of Seosan, Chungcheongnam-do.
I'll send you the exact coordinates.
When I heard that we were tracking a suspect,
I rushed out.
Because that's my job.
And you got there before me?
My motorcycle is quite fast.
I was planning to wait for you while looking around.
The man was stabbing himself.
What are you doing? Put that knife down!
All I could think about was stopping him.
Calm down.
That's when...
you came in.
Put the knife down.
Put it down!
How long have you been working in this field?
For five years.
Have you ever seen anyone commit suicide like this?
I know very well that many deaths are not logical.
Are you trying to lecture me?
I'm a police officer.
I only served my duty,
sir.
(Find missing children)
(Seoul)
(Missing Children)
Mom.
Mom!
Eun Seo.
Have you been well?
Did you have fun at Grandma's?
Yes. It was so much fun.
But I missed you and Dad so much.
Did you?
Come here.
Your mother called.
Eun Seo must have whined about missing you.
Good. I'm glad you brought her.
Thank you.
Let me look at you.
You look even prettier.
So? How much did you miss me?
As much as these bubbles.
What?
That's so little.
As much as the ocean?
No, as much as the sky and the ground.
Is that so?
Me too. I missed you as much as the ocean and the ground.
You're so cute.
Sunlight is moving.
Sunlight must be happy to have a bath with you.
Did Aunt Se Kyung move in Grandma's tummy...
like Sunlight?
What?
Your sister. Aunt Se Kyung.
Se Kyung?
Why would I talk to Eun Seo about her?
It's not a good thing to talk about.
Anyway, Eun Seo is so small,
but she's such a weird little one.
She only saw her aunt a few times,
but she didn't forget.
You're right.
She randomly talked about Se Kyung,
so I thought maybe you mentioned her.
Right. How's the accident resolving?
I'm just...
waiting for the result.
How did you get into such an accident?
You're giving everyone a hard time.
I think your husband has it tough.
He didn't look so good.
You better take good care of him.
Okay.
What about Eun Seo?
She fell asleep.
Did she fall asleep right away?
She had trouble sleeping at Mother's.
Gosh, my legs.
Right.
A police officer came to the office today.
The police?
It's nothing much.
Honey.
Do you know a poem called "Leper"?
A poem?
I thought it was just a sad poem,
but when I read it in the perspective of a child,
it's a really scary poem.
What do you mean?
That kid...
That kid left behind a picture.
Are you saying he did all this to himself?
How is that possible?
Some people commit suicide...
by hammering a nail into their own head.
He died from eight stabs.
If you look at his shirt,
it's completely fine except for this area.
Why do you think that is?
Do you think the suspect...
raised it up before stabbing?
What are you doing?
It's a common phenomenon...
when people use a knife to hurt themselves.
Once they decide to die,
they want to die in one go. Why?
Because it hurts and it's scary.
That's why they look...
for the exact spot.
- Then they aim... - Stop.
But he stabbed himself eight times?
That's why...
it's very hard to die with your own hands.
You hesitate...
and you get fearful. Then,
you find the courage.
Look at all these small cuts.
They're signs of hesitation and fear.
He was a doctor. Was this really the best way?
Why did he kill himself in such a complicated way?
Some people go into their freezer to kill themselves.
I'm sure some drown in a saucer-full of water.
That's right. So...
the mode of suicide follows one's personality.
Cause of death is excessive bleeding due to suicide.
Dozens of hesitation wounds.
Based on the shape and angle of the stab wounds,
the conclusion is that Park Yong Tae harmed himself.
He did that to himself? My gosh.
Human beings can be so determined.
Also...
Join us.
- Hey, you... - Okay. Sit over here.
So, is our rookie...
no longer a suspect?
The captain and Detective Kwon's testimonies and camera footage...
all backed up Sergeant Jeon's statement.
Most importantly,
she had no motive.
What a wise officer.
What amazing timing.
You scored big as soon as you joined the unit.
What a joke.
This is Park Yong Tae's will.
(Evidence photo)
(I eliminated a devil who killed her child.)
He wrote that he "fulfilled his mission".
He confessed to killing Park Ji Hye.
Handwriting analysis proved the writing is Park Yong Tae's.
At his address,
we found the drugs used to kill Park Ji Hye.
We also have footage...
of Park Yong Tae buying gasoline...
on the day of the murder at a nearby gas station.
Look at this.
Gasoline purchased at about 9:37pm.
Park Ji Hye's estimated time of death...
is between 8pm of the 29th and 2am the next day. It fits.
He changed completely since...
he lost his wife and child in an accident.
(Depression, sleeping disorder)
For example, he was fixated on the Kim Han Sol case.
(Can the Devil be Reformed?)
Two years later, Park Ji Hye was released...
and his hatred burned up again.
- Die! - If you have a conscience, die!
(You are a devil who killed your own child.)
Park Yong Tae stalked Park Ji Hye...
from her release until her death.
Evidence of that remain in the forms of photos.
During the stalking,
the two will have made contact one way or another.
Now that they're both dead,
there's no way to find out how or what they used.
What's clear is that...
Park Yong Tae succeeded in...
calling Park Ji Hye to the scene of the crime.
She'd have had no time to fight back.
She'll have passed out as soon as she was injected.
Park Ji Hye was the accomplice in Kim Han Sol's child abuse case.
The police investigated her death by burning...
just three days after her release from prison.
The case is closed due to...
the death of suspect Park Yong Tae.
Police revealed they found evidence...
that the suspect had stalked the victim...
since she was released from prison.
A will was found confessing to her murder,
so the police concluded there were no accomplices...
and closed the case due to the suspect's suicide.
(Case Report)
Isn't it a relief it's over so soon?
If we dragged it on,
the reporters would've nagged me to death.
What?
Gi Tae. The guy had a strong sense of duty...
and was audacious enough to burn someone to death.
Isn't it odd that...
he declared his mission over after killing just one woman?
What are you saying?
Is Park Ji Hye...
the only devil who killed her child?
Are you saying he should've committed a series of murders?
Isn't this conclusion too feeble for his sense of duty?
It's out of balance.
The slight discord.
Discomfort.
Like I always say, you think way too much.
And it's pointless.
We can't read a criminal's mind 100 percent...
and don't have to.
The story and conclusion never balance out.
My arm hurts.
We're police, not novelists.
Do I have to go on working with the kid...
who almost killed me?
Of course.
I get the chills each time I look at her.
Why does she sit opposite me?
It's perfect.
You'll never doze off while you're on a stakeout.
Because of the chills.
- Congratulations. - Thanks.
How perfect.
How did Park Yong Tae...
lure Park Ji Hye to the scene?
She was extremely closed up.
It couldn't have been easy to make her travel 20km at night.
From her perspective, he was her stalker...
and she followed him.
So what? Does that change the fact that he killed her?
It doesn't. But...
We can't read a criminal's mind 100 percent and don't have to.
The story and conclusion never balance out.
Why?
We're police, not novelists.
Said the captain.
Sir, you need to see the camera footage yourself.
(Red Cry: The mission you accomplished...)
(was great and noble. May you rest in peace.)
He's quite good at drawing.
An elephant, crocodile, and giraffe.
Even the small details are accurate.
Look.
Mom's earrings, Dad's tie and watch.
But the boy himself is drawn poorly.
He doesn't even have a mouth.
He has no sense of presence.
To his parents or the world.
He doesn't even care for himself.
Do you agree as well?
Like you said, he could be a neglected child.
Are you his therapist?
No.
No?
This looks like quite a serious case.
We should separate him from his parents.
And his sibling.
What?
Sibling?
What? You didn't see it?
There's a little girl in the picture. Look.
In the tree.
There's another neglected child.
She's smaller than the boy, so it'll be a younger child.
A sister.
Woo Kyung?
It's her.
The sister.
Whether there's a brother or a sister, nothing changes.
From when it happened until now,
we've been doing our best to find...
the boy's family.
I know you want to find them as much as I do.
Wouldn't it help if you had a sliver of a lead?
Okay then. What's this sliver of a lead?
This.
You'll find the kid with this?
Yes. It's an unusual stamp, so it's possible.
The police will ask around the childcare services.
It would be more efficient to go online and use social media.
That's your specialty.
Our company doesn't do this.
Honey.
You did more than enough to try to find the kid's family.
This is too much.
The dead boy has a neglected sister.
We must find and save her.
Why should we do that? The police are looking.
Call it quits. I have a meeting.
I've been seeing the girl again.
What?
At the charnel house where he's at.
What are you talking about?
She's the dead boy's sister.
That's why...
she's...
asking me for help.
Honey.
Don't look at me that way.
Let's go see a doctor.
Can't you just help me?
When it was announced...
that your sister was in a vegetative state,
you were bedridden for over a month.
You were in a state as bad as your sister's.
Do you remember?
Why are you bringing up Se Kyung?
Due to your petty sense of guilt,
you didn't care at all about me or Eun Seo.
What could I have done?
There are other people in this world too.
Woo Kyung.
Please get a grip.
Once is enough.
You shouldn't be like that again.
Never.
- Bye. - See you tomorrow.
Let's go.
- Mom. - Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Mom.
- Goodbye. - Bye.
- Mom. - Did you have a good day?
Let's go.
- You're here. - Hello.
Se Kyung seems healthier.
I let her out in the sun every day.
Thank you.
I'll leave you two.
- Hey, Mom. - Did you pick up Eun Seo?
What?
What are you talking about? You were supposed to.
Mom.
I came on time, but she's not here.
What happened to Eun Seo?
What? What did you say?
Mom.
Eun Seo.
Woo Kyung.
Woo Kyung!
Eun Seo.
Eun Seo!
Eun Seo.
We see Eun Seo leaving the gate on surveillance camera.
It's unclear where she went due to the crowd.
Have you contacted other parents?
Hee Joon and Tae Kyung's mothers saw Eun Seo.
She was waiting for her mom.
There wasn't anything unusual.
We'll analyze all the nearby surveillance recordings.
We'll continue our search.
It hasn't been two hours since your child went missing.
We'll find her.
Don't worry.
Honey.
Eun Seo should be fine, right?
Eun Seo...
Ma'am.
We're contacting all the mothers.
I'll let you know if I hear any...
Ma'am, we looked here already.
What's that?
It's a greenhouse where the kids grow flowers.
Eun Seo.
Is it fun?
Eun Seo.
Mom.
Are you okay, Eun Seo?
Are you hurt?
Mom, the truck driver gave me a spaceship ride.
It's so much fun.
What's wrong with you?
Didn't you know that we were looking for her?
Eun Seo asked me to play with her.
I'm sorry.
Ma'am.
(6 months later)
Ma'am, do you need anything?
No, it's okay.
It's delicious.
Eun Seo.
Your eyesight will go bad. Stand back.
Go back, Eun Seo.
Dad.
Hello, my princess.
Did you have fun at daycare?
You're here.
I made your favorite seafood stew.
Go and wash your hands.
Okay, I'll go wash my hands.
You must like it.
Did something good happen?
I'll return to work starting next week.
That's great.
I won't be a housewife anymore.
I'm done.
Already?
Mom, can I watch TV?
Okay.
Stay far from the screen.
By the way,
the prosecutors' office called today.
The case has been dropped.
It got accepted that the driver wasn't responsible.
They were looking for the parents, so the result came out late.
They couldn't find them.
Now...
it's really over.
Why aren't you saying anything?
It's yours.
What?
The phone.
Aren't you going to answer it?
It's not important.
I forgot about it all.
Besides, I don't ever want to...
talk about that again.
I'll only think about our family from now.
I mean it.
Dad.
Genie isn't talking.
Really?
Let's take a look.
You have to hold it here.
Talk, Genie.
That's strange.
Genie says you should watch less TV and eat more.
You try it this time.
(Episode 4)
Why did this person park like this?
Step on the brake.
You can go after these people pass.
Let's go.
Okay.
You did well. You were calm.
It's hard to tell you're nervous.
I told you.
I'm going to forget about it all and think about our family.
Okay.
Pick up your phone, honey.
Okay.
- Just a second. - Okay.
Ji Heon.
It looks like a typical suicide.
There are no external injuries,
and I found something that could be his will.
"I'm sorry."
What about his identity?
I found his ID,
but we have to check if this is really him.
(An Seok Won)
Hey.
You have so much work as soon as you're back.
Here are the kids you're in charge of.
Also, these are the teams you're meeting this afternoon.
This is not a surprise since I came to work.
So many moms asked for you.
I'm so glad you're back.
What's this?
I'll talk to facilities about this.
Okay.
(Consultation Daily Record)
(Han Si Wan)
"Han Si Wan"?
(Han Si Wan)
Min Ju.
Han Si Wan...
His guardian refused to get any more consultation.
Why is his file on my desk?
Oh, him?
It's mandatory for him to get your consultation now.
He pushed his classmate down a flight of stairs.
Hospitalized for four weeks.
Si Wan.
Why do you think it's a bad thing?
Because she died.
Because my sister died.
(He did not show it, but was unhappy about changing counselors.)
Have you been well?
I think you got taller in the meanwhile.
Your mom must be happy too.
The building's old, that's why. It's okay.
I'm sorry.
By the way,
your mom must be upset that you're getting more counseling.
But it's true I did wrong.
So you know you did wrong.
I heard your friend got badly hurt.
Did you two fight?
Then why did you push your friend down the stairs?
Was it an accident,
or did you get upset about something?
I was curious.
About what?
If you fall down the stairs,
will you die or not?
You were curious...
if they would die?
Did you have your baby yet?
What baby?
The baby that was in your stomach.
Your son.
Is that baby...
still alive?
(Woo Kyung)
Yes.
No, it's nothing.
I just called.
It was my first day back at work.
It was a little tough,
so I wanted to talk with you.
It'd be nice for us to eat out...
and have a drink or two. What do you think?
Can we just talk at home later?
It would be nice if we could go for just a quick one.
- I'm right... - I have a lot of work,
so I have to stay at the office until late.
I'll see you at home later.
Hello?
Hey.
It can't be my husband.
He's in Jeonju right now.
That's why we need you to check.
It might not be your husband.
What if I get fired...
for leaving in the middle of work?
I have a disability,
so it's really hard to find work.
You wouldn't have an idea since you're public officials.
I'm behind on my bills.
I don't know when they'll kick us out of the house.
I really can't get fired this time.
I'll find you a new job if a problem occurs.
I promise you, so don't worry.
Ji Heon.
Sorry.
Was there an accident?
Gosh.
Let go!
Let go.
That woman...
- Do you know her? - Yes.
She used to be my kid's consultant.
Hey.
Are you okay?
It's okay. Relax.
Relax.
Will you look at me?
Hey.
Aren't you Cha Woo Kyung?
Woo Kyung.
It's okay now. You're safe.
It's okay, it's over.
Nothing happened.
It's fine.
Did we come to the right place?
We've met before, haven't we?
I asked for your help with an investigation.
Park Ji Hye's death.
Bye.
Did you get the killer?
I don't follow the news.
Yes, thanks to you.
When did your husband go to Jeonju?
Let's see.
Was it two weeks ago?
He said he found work at a construction site.
Did he call recently?
He didn't even call once?
We don't have phones.
We couldn't pay, so they got cut off.
Is this your husband's handwriting?
(I'm sorry.)
You need to give us a notebook or diary he wrote.
For scientific comparison.
Okay.
Did your husband ever mention suicide?
Did my husband kill himself?
We can tell for sure when the autopsy results come out.
I'm asking in case.
He did...
always say that he wanted to die,
that he'd had enough.
It's the lack of money.
Life is no fun for people like us.
We found 3,000 dollars in cash in his car.
Can you guess where it was from?
Detective.
That money. Will you give it to me?
When the case is closed, everything the deceased had...
will go to his family.
Really?
Everything? It's all mine?
Yes.
Thank you.
Hey.
Where's Ji Heon?
You weren't with him?
Is something wrong?
No, well, our shift is over.
I wanted to have a drink.
He's not answering his phone.
He witnessed his ex...
with a married man getting caught by the wife.
- What? - He seems to feel rotten.
If he hasn't called back yet.
Did that guy leave?
Your place is bigger and nicer.
And cozier.
I'm with someone. It would be cozier.
It sounds like you live together.
We sort of do.
Isn't it tough having that kind of relationship with a colleague?
I quit.
It's fun keeping house.
I can't cook him breakfast each morning,
but I can cook him dinner when he gets off from work.
That's good enough.
How long do you think that will last?
How long did you think we'd last?
How long does a marriage last?
None of them last forever.
Do you know his wife gave birth not long ago?
Forget about the wife. What about his kid?
Did you think about that?
Did you think about the baby who lost its dad at birth?
The baby?
How dare you mention a baby in front of me?
This isn't working.
I still can't stand you.
Please leave.
Detective.
That money. Will you give it to me?
Thank you.
"The beast-like laughter was as sweet as a cry."
What?
They identified the corpse.
It's the woman's husband.
Okay.
NISI can't do the autopsy until next week.
- They're backlogged. - Okay.
That woman...
- Never mind. - Good job. Go home.
Okay.
Sweetie.
I think we're going to have a baby.
Just a moment. Look.
Who do you want our baby to look...
If you do that,
does it lessen the guilt?
Sunlight...
Sunlight is dead.
He never got to cry...
or even breathe on his own!
You know very well.
This won't bring Sunlight back.
What about you?
Will you come back?
Min Seok.
You'll come back, won't you?
Right?
Min Seok.
Will you come back?
Will you come back to me?
You'll come back.
You will, won't you?
You will. You'll come back.
You will come back.
You'll come back.
Will you come back?
You will come back.
You'll come back.
Will you?
Will you come back to me?
You will come back!
You'll come back.
Answer me!
You'll come back!
Tell me!
You will come back!
You'll come back.
You'll come back!
Sunlight's dead.
Yes, Sunlight's dead!
Where did this fury come from?
It feels as if my body's being shredded.
This terrible fury.
Where is it coming from?
(Insurance Certificate)
2, 3, 4
5, 6, 7...
My husband's betrayal.
My husband's woman.
No.
It began long before that.
Mom.
What are you doing?
A much crueler and deeper thing...
that I don't know about...
lurks within me.
So Ra.
Your dad...
is dead.
This fury of which the roots are unknown.
When did it all begin?
(Children of Nobody)
When the charcoal was lit,
the man was already unconscious?
- That or he was dead. - It's murder.
You've gotten prettier.
- So Ra. - Are you happy your husband's dead?
When a man dies, the wife's usually the killer.
I didn't kill him. I didn't kill him.
Why do you think she's the dead boy's sister?
If she's not the dead boy's sister,
then who could she be?
Prove to me that you're real.
If you're really, really real,
then I'll save you.
