EPISODE 2: THE MIND OF A MURDERER

It's the 300th episode special.

That episode was legendary.

It's Kim Hye-ja.

Jjajangmyeon again?

-She looks so young. -Detective Kim.

What are they watching?

Chief Investigator.

It's the first crime drama to air in Korea. It's like a ritual for him.

Whenever we have a big case, he watches one episode.

And the case gets solved.

But that's team two's case.

The Chief told us to work together.

You have CSI, The Mentalist, Criminal Minds, and you watch that?

Isn't that show as old as the Korean War?

Hey!

Do you know how meticulous criminals are these days?

That's why you should watch an American show.

You really know nothing. Listen.

There are trends in crime.

There's this thing that flows along with the energies of the universe.

How do I put it? Hey, how do you explain it?

Anyway, it's something like that.

But you can't investigate based on that.

Because there will be more crime where you can't find solid evidence.

Then what do we have left to rely on?

We rely on intuition!

We return to an analog mindset.

Do you know what the best-selling book in the history of mankind is?

-It's The Holy Bible! -That's right! The Bible!

-Originality! -Exactly. Originality.

Classics. That's where the answer lies.

You really know nothing.

Right?

Let's eat. You didn't have breakfast, did you?

I did.

Really?

Eat again, then.

I'm not hungry.

I only come to work on Mondays and Thursdays.

-Are you listening? -Yes.

And that info has been leaked.

So from now on...

I think only you and I should know my schedule.

-What are you doing? Sit. -Oh, right.

I've been tailed and blackmailed as of recent.

-By whom? -I don't know.

-I'd have caught him if I knew. -Then report it to the police.

I don't like the police. I don't trust them.

I will catch them myself.

-I need your help. -What?

You said you like video games.

Come on. It's exciting.

Let's think of it as a game and try to catch him.

It'll be fun.

You wanted to work in game development. Go ahead.

We'll win anyway.

Are you kidding me?

Life is a game and games are life.

What did you do to have so many enemies?

Does your character become stronger by doing bad things in video games?

The world is filled with bad people, so you need to increase your defense.

Why do you dislike the police?

-Do you like them? -Yes.

They're cool.

Why aren't you eating? Eat.

You can't choose to not eat. I'm the boss, and I give the orders.

I don't eat lunch. I have one meal a day.

You should have told me earlier.

CALLER ID RESTRICTED

You'd better not ignore my warnings. Look forward to what's coming.

When did you start getting these calls?

A couple of months ago.

Protect me. That's your job.

Mr. Kong has my schedule. You can ask him tomorrow.

I will.

I'm not working today. I don't feel like working.

I don't want to work. Why are you looking at me like that?

It's nothing. They already told me.

What did you hear?

That you only work twice a week and sometimes even less.

See? I'm so popular that I get too much attention.

It's so tiring.

I'll hang around the riverside, the mall, and the bookstore.

What?

Do I have to escort you?

Of course. Do you even have to ask?

Let's go.

Start the car.

-Me? -You never know.

There could be a bomb.

Then I might die.

Then should I die instead?

You're my bodyguard. Come on.

Start the car.

Step on the brake, turn the ignition, and...

Do it.

It's fine.

Good job!

Hey!

This isn't a taxi.

Sit in the passenger seat.

Shouldn't I drive?

You don't understand the concept of prioritizing your client's safety.

If I let you drive and a car rushes in, which way would you steer the wheel?

DOBONG WALNUTS

-Welcome. -I don't want to imagine

how her mother is feeling right now.

She raised her all this time and... Poor thing.

I've complained so many times to the borough

to do something about that intersection.

-There was an accident there last year. -Right.

Ho-soon, bring us some hot water!

But I'm against the commercial complex.

If they build that high-rise building, we won't be able to see the sunlight.

-We'll lose all the sunlight! -You're right.

Isn't that better than becoming a crime-prone area?

Crime-prone area? Where?

-It's Ms. Jeong. -Hello!

Hello.

-I'm picking up what I ordered. -Right.

She has that beauty pageant smile even when there's been a murder.

I know.

The dead girl won't return to life even if she doesn't, right?

You're right.

Excuse me, Ms. Jeong!

Hi, Ms. Hwang.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Sure.

-Hello. -Hi.

We started a petition against the redevelopment of the area

next to the dry cleaner's.

We're asking all the block leaders to sign.

If someone important like you signs our petition,

don't you think the borough will listen?

-Right. -That's right.

I'm not sure.

I support the redevelopment,

but I also understand those who are against it.

I'm still thinking about it.

That spot is perfect for a four-story building!

I'm just against the commercial complex.

Those who do have a say all live in the area,

so I don't think this petition is fair to begin with.

What do you mean?

I think we should create a committee of people without conflict of interest.

Excuse me, then.

-Here's your order. -Oh, gosh. Thanks.

-Enjoy. -Thank you.

Bye.

Bye.

Seriously?

You...

-She just doesn't click with me. -I know.

-Did you see that? -Yes.

She just said whatever and left.

She thinks she's better than us because she's a writer.

Acting like she's so smart...

-My gosh. -I can't stand her. She's such a snob!

-Seriously. -Ma'am!

Hello.

Kyung-shim!

-Ma'am! -My goodness.

Act natural.

What?

-Someone is watching us from somewhere. -Who?

Stop acting like a bodyguard.

Okay.

But holding hands is weird.

It doesn't look natural.

-Stop talking and follow me. -Okay.

Here.

I would never have imagined that the money I spent playing his games

would end up being spent on his clothes.

Hey.

-Yes, sir. -How do I look?

You look cool.

I only bought things for myself.

Let's go back. I'll buy you something.

No, that's fine.

Don't refuse. You can accept it.

No, I'm really fine. You don't have to.

What do you want?

Come on.

You don't want it?

Let's go.

Try to make it swirl.

This is so cool.

-Hey. -Yes?

Twelve o'clock. Don't make it obvious.

Twelve o'clock?

Right in front of us.

-Do you see him? -Yes. He's looking at us right now.

-Let's catch him. -Now?

Can you act natural? So that nobody notices.

He's running away!

He's so fast. Shouldn't we go after him?

I am after him.

Goodness...

Faster!

You can see him on the screen!

Gosh.

-Did you just film him? -I did. His license plate.

That's good.

Are you hungry?

Well, yes...

Go home and eat.

Don't ever go on a diet.

Just eat anything you want. Just keep doing that.

You're not done with your schedule for the day. Are you sure I can go?

Yes, because he's gone too.

He got caught.

What about Mr. Kong's tailbone?

It won't heal so fast.

I'm thinking of visiting him at the hospital.

I need to get your schedule from him too.

He'll be embarrassed and upset if sees you.

You wanted me to visit him.

Yes, you can visit him.

What do you want me to do?

You live near the crime scene.

-Did you know that? -Yes.

Why would someone living in a nice area do something so awful?

Gosh, I'm hungry.

Is there a good bakery here?

-Do you like pastries? -I love them!

There's a walnut pie shop if you turn into that alley.

Good.

DOBONG WALNUTS

People won't pass by here. We don't have any customers.

Then sell the cracked walnuts at a discounted price.

-Ho-soon. -Yes?

Post "Cracked walnuts on sale" on the window.

Okay.

Did you get any signatures?

It's not easy.

I hear Bong-soon got a job.

-We'll have to wait and see. -Why?

The fortune-teller said she has itchy feet and can't stay in one place for too long.

But your son turned out so well.

He goes to Hanse Medical School, and he's so handsome too.

That's why Gook-du and Bong-gi have been rivals

since they were in school together.

Both were handsome, and both did well in school.

My concern is Bong-soon.

I wish she'd find a rich man who's not right in the head.

There isn't.

Isn't that Bong-soon?

Hello.

Hello...

Two egg tarts and one walnut pie, please.

Sure, right away.

-Let's eat this too. -What?

-The cake. -I see.

Two pieces of cake too, please.

Okay. Right away.

Hello.

-Here it is. -The receipt, please.

We need it.

-Here it is. -Thanks.

-Enjoy. -Thank you.

Bong-soon!

Don't!

I'm off.

Is he her boyfriend?

I hope so.

Look at him. He's perfect!

He's lighting up the neighborhood.

You've hit the jackpot!

Oh, my. Look at that. They're getting in his car!

-And it's a luxury car. -My goodness.

Sweet, merciful Buddha!

My goodness! Praise be to Buddha! Amen!

Kyung-shim!

Bong-soon!

Sorry.

I'm so happy to see you! How have you been?

-How have you been? -Good!

So you got a job as the bodyguard for the president of Ainsoft?

I did.

-The Chronicle of Albertan? -Yeah.

You finally decided to use your talent.

Good thinking.

My goal is to develop my game, Super Girl Bong-soon.

And to land a permanent position in Planning and Development there.

That's my goal.

Hey, but is your boss nice to you?

It says he loves clothes, and he's really into games.

He's not interested in women and is very handsome.

Don't even get me started.

He's totally obnoxious. What kind of a man loves shopping?

So there's no smoke without fire.

That's why he hired a female bodyguard. To prevent any scandals with men.

You're right.

It's always the handsome men with great style and no women.

You're getting wrinkles.

Kyung-shim? Hi.

-Hi, Bong-gi. -Did you bring it?

-Of course! -Great!

Hey.

Gosh.

Hey, listen.

There's a bench player on our team who's really nice and humorous.

-Do you want to meet him? -No.

I told him a lot of good things about you.

There's nothing good about me.

Bong-soon. You're really pretty. Have confidence in yourself.

What good is it to be pretty if Gook-du won't even look at me?

You're still in love with him?

I'm sick of this.

I can't seem to lose interest in him.

Because you don't try to.

-Did you prepare the rice? -Mom, it's still too early.

I'm hungry. Get up and cook.

I'll help her.

I bought three packs of the Busan fish cakes that Bong-gi likes.

Good, Kyung-shim. I knew I could count on you.

Get up now!

-Gosh. -You brought a lot!

I just did.

Kyung-him, you're always so generous.

It's been so long since I had them.

Here it comes!

It looks so good.

-Thank you! -Thank you!

-Enjoy. -Eat up.

Is the guy you came to the store with your new boss?

-Yes. -How old is he?

I don't know. He's young.

He gave you a ride home on your first day of work?

Yes.

You should marry him.

Mom!

He's the winning number sent from heaven.

-You should stop watching dramas! -Is he single?

He's gay.

Gay? So he likes men?

Yes, ma'am.

It's okay.

It's okay. It's rare to find rich men who are flawless these days.

It's perfectly fine.

It's okay!

Gosh, it's hot! Mom!

Yes, call forensics. We're on our way.

There again?

What on earth is going on?

-Okay, got it. -Let's go.

Sir, they're taking the victim to Hanse Hospital.

Hey, Spectacles, stay here. The rest of you, come with me.

-Where to? -To the hospital, you idiot!

Yes, we're on our way. We'll be at Hanse Hospital too.

Hey, it's now! Do it! Attack! Come on, quickly!

-No! -Game over.

-What are you doing? -We shouldn't have gone in.

You're not good at games. Just give up. Damn it!

Another woman was attacked.

It's so frightening.

What on earth happened?

-Did someone die again? -Did she die?

What the heck are you doing?

You're interfering with the investigation. Please return to your homes.

-Go home. -My goodness.

-Go home. -Go home, ma'am.

Did you find the killer?

Someone saw her just in time, and she didn't die.

-What a relief. -Right?

I'm scared. Let's go home quickly.

We have breaking news.

Tonight at 11, 23 hours after the murder in Dobong-dong,

a similar incident occurred in the same area.

What is shocking is that the victim was attacked this time

while he was trying to destroy the crime scene.

The victim, Kim, a high school teacher,

managed to survive the attack thanks to a passerby.

How is she doing?

We'd have lost her if she had come a little later.

We need to watch her for a couple of days,

but her ribs are fractured, so she has trouble breathing.

It's difficult to say for now.

KCSI already took photos of the footprints.

He got here right after I left the crime scene.

Were you here alone?

Don't you know we have to work in pairs?

It's not that. I live here.

I stopped by on my way home to get changed.

There aren't any security cameras or dashcams.

He knows the neighborhood inside-out. I'm sure of it.

The victim managed to survive thanks to the witness.

He ran away when someone showed up.

You must have been startled.

-Yes. -Tell us everything you saw.

I was on my way home.

But around the left alley...

Don't kill me.

...I heard someone scream, "Don't kill me."

So I went there.

Sir. Please, help me!

-And then? -Help me!

When I got closer,

he stomped the girl down and ran away.

What did he look like?

He was wearing a black hoodie, I think.

Yes, and black pants.

He was about 180cm tall.

His face?

I couldn't see his face.

Anything in particular that you remember?

Yes, his feet.

He had big feet.

"He had big feet..."

It must have been so terrifying.

I know.

You know what?

I despise people that pick on others who are weaker than them.

They are just the worst.

I agree.

Such a bastard.

How could he do that to a woman? He deserves to be punished severely.

Bong-soon.

I think you should teach people like them a lesson.

That will do.

Come on.

How can I do that when I can't even take care of myself.

Do you have a younger sister?

-Go with him. -Set me up.

-What's this? -Gosh.

They're ganging up on him. That's just as bad.

-Gosh, you're trendy. -Seriously.

-She's pretty. -She's cute.

-What? -If you don't have money...

Hey there, kids.

Yes. Hi.

There have been a lot of incidents here lately,

so the police are patrolling more often.

I suggest you go home early.

You go home early. It's none of your business.

Then let your friend who's standing there alone go home.

What the hell?

-Go home if you're drunk. -Hey.

Hey, who's the leader here?

I asked who's the leader.

Have you lost your mind?

Get lost.

-What the... -Excuse me, kids.

Just apologize to her and go home.

Are you the President's daughter or something?

Are you stupid or something?

Do you have 18 lives?

You were so busy bullying people that your shoelaces got untied.

Your shoes don't match now.

Should I do this to your shoes too? Do you want to go home barefoot?

You come here. Come on. Give me your phone.

This is my number.

Call me if they bully you again, okay?

Okay.

And get a university degree.

I can tell you from experience

that life as a college graduate is a little difficult.

-You. -Yes?

If I see you doing something like this again

I will rip off your feet, your legs, and

Guess what's next?

Let's go. Give him his bag.

I'll walk you home.

Next on the news.

After the murder and kidnapping in Dobong-dong that occurred recently,

the police decided to install more CCTV cameras in the area

and patrol more frequently to enforce anti-crime measures.

The police are after the suspect of the murder in Dobong-dong

and announced that they were finding it difficult

to identify the suspect due to lack of evidence,

causing more apprehension among the residents.

It's 4458.

Yes, I need you to check a number plate.

Sir. We have the autopsy result of the first victim, Jung Hyang-sook.

Really? Let me see that.

Let's see...

She was 172 cm tall and weighed 48 kg.

Gosh, she was really skinny.

She has eight stab wounds on her hands.

She fought the killer to the end.

-He first hit her stomach. -Right.

Her stomach was ruptured then.

He strangled her next

and struck her in the face when she kept on resisting.

Then he must have dropped the knife he had in his hand.

So he had an awkward grip on the knife.

That's why he stabbed her stomach with the blade facing upward.

By then, he must have already decided to kill her.

So he made mistakes because he held the knife backward?

Then he tried to turn the knife while it was inside the victim.

That's why the wound on her stomach had been shredded like that.

He's not good with knives.

I don't think the second victim was attacked by the same guy.

-He didn't use a knife this time. -Right.

You can't say for sure.

The first victim wasn't attacked with a knife to begin with.

He must have missed the chance to stab the second victim

because the witness appeared before he could.

I don't think so.

He might have used his hands at first because he's not good with knives.

I think we need to take a break first. We'll take turns resting.

Detective In. You go to the hospital and watch over the victim.

Okay.

INTENSIVE TREATMENT

He wanted to knock her out.

He didn't want to kill her.

Sorry.

Who is it?

Well...

Hi, it's Do Bong-soon.

Why are you here?

I need Mr. An's schedule.

Ask Ms. Kim in PR!

I brought some flowers and this...

Gosh.

What do I do? I'll put it here.

Does it hurt a lot?

You can't wear a cast on the tailbone, so it takes a long time to heal.

You can't sit or lie down. It's the worst.

The ribs are also hard to heal...

-Do you have to say that now? -Right. Sorry.

There is one method that helps the tailbone to heal fast.

It's called fecal wine It's also called poop wine.

It's literally wine made using poop.

It helps the bone heal fast.

Are you here to make fun of me? What? Poop wine?

Oh, no. My grandmother is an expert in this field.

She hurt many people...

Anyway!

Poop wine is the best cure for tailbones. Better than modern medicine.

Disgusting.

If it's okay with you, I can make some for you.

Will you shut up?

No, you shouldn't get angry.

That will strain the sphincter, and you won't heal quickly.

-Get out of here right now. -Okay. I'm leaving.

I'm really sorry.

If you need poop wine, I'll...

-Please leave! -Okay. I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry. I'm leaving. Bye.

It's always the people high up who cause problems.

Why did he make Mr. Kong have a one-legged fight with me?

Gosh...

It's Gook-du.

Hello?

-Gook-du, it's me. -I know.

-I can see you. -What?

I came to visit someone at the hospital and I can see you.

I see you too.

I'll go to you.

What are you doing here?

Here?

I'm watching over a victim.

What about you?

Someone I know got injured so I came to visit him.

Who?

Well...

Anyway, he had a one-legged fight, fell down, and hurt his tailbone.

-What? -His tailbone.

How do you hurt your tailbone during a one-legged fight?

-What? -Did he fight against you?

No! Not against me.

Then why are you visiting him?

You should be working during the day.

Why are you here?

Gook-du, I got a job.

That's good.

Bong-soon, do me a favor.

I need to go to the restroom.

-Can you stay here for a second? -Yes.

Call me right away if anyone other than a doctor or a nurse approaches.

Got it?

See you.

NAME: KIM JI-WON ROOM: INTENSIVE TREATMENT 3

-Excuse me. -Sure. Just a second.

Oh, no.

Call the detective.

It's an emergency. We have to take her to the operation room.

Okay, I will.

Gook-du.

It was an emergency so the doctor took her to the operation room.

What?

What? There he is.

Where's the patient?

What? The machine started to beep so you came in and took her.

What are you talking about? I was in the OR until now.

He sounds different from the other doctor.

When did he come for her?

About five minutes ago.

The suspect is here! Close off the hospital!

He's trying to take the victim with him!

Show me the hallway where the intensive treatment rooms are.

Okay.

Damn it!

I'm sorry, Gook-du. It's my fault.

No, it's not your fault. I shouldn't have left.

I'm sorry.

Do you think she'll be all right?

Oh, no...

Don't worry. I don't think he took her to kill her.

I'll find her no matter what.

I wish I could help you.

Sorry.

Call the detective.

It's an emergency. We have to take her to the operation room.

Right! I heard the killer's voice.

Do you remember his voice? Do you think you'd recognize it?

Yes, I think I would.

I have to go back to the station. You go home, okay?

Hey, take a taxi. I'll call you one.

Don't worry. It's not your fault.

Okay, I won't. You should go.

What if he gets in trouble for letting him get away?

You punk, they could discipline you for this!

The victim got kidnapped!

In a hospital where she had the police watching over her!

It's my fault.

I'll take the blame on my own.

What the heck?

All we can do now is catch him.

I'll delay the disciplinary action.

Get the footage from the cameras in the parking lot!

And track the plate number!

It looks like the killer isn't playing around.

He's good with knives but he's good with his head.

He didn't leave a single fingerprint at the scene.

He's got some guts. How dare he go there!

Sir, I need to request witness protection.

-What? -For Do Bong-soon, a friend of mine.

He saw Bong-soon's face.

Bong-soon? Do Bong-soon?

The name sounds familiar.

That Avengers girl.

-She's in danger. -She beat up seven thugs.

My friend Bong-soon is a feeble woman.

-Damn it. -Gosh

Bong-soon.

What are you doing here?

Will she be all right?

He won't kill her, will he?

He wouldn't have taken her if he wanted to kill her, right?

She needs to be treated. I'm worried.

Being strong doesn't help in this kind of situation.

Isn't there a way for me to use my strength to help him?

Hey.

Hello.

What's this?

Why are there so many?

-What are you doing? -Hello.

That skull isn't on my computer today.

What a lousy hacker he is.

It's pathetic.

He's just an amateur.

I changed my password.

Hey, there was another incident in your neighborhood.

She got kidnapped

while I was at the hospital.

Kidnapped?

Kim, the teacher who was attacked, was kidnapped by a man

who was disguised as a doctor while she was hospitalized.

This is both bizarre and unprecedented.

The police used the footage from dashcams and CCTVs

to obtain the plate number on the kidnapper's vehicle,

but the vehicle was unregistered...

This is amazing. It's so interesting!

Someone got kidnapped.

But he's so cunning.

Of course, I hope they catch him. They should catch him, but...

I don't think they will.

He'll outsmart the police.

This is incredible.

Why did he kill one but let the other one live?

Do you think it's the same person?

Of course.

The police don't think so.

That's what the police think.

You have to approach it from the kidnapper's perspective.

It's the same guy.

He destroyed the crime scene

because he wanted to assert dominance over the other killer.

That's what the profiler said on TV.

He's wrong.

Why destroy the scene

when the police were done with it and it was about to be restored?

If I was a killer, I'd assert my dominance

by showing off how brutal and unjustified my killings can be.

But he didn't kill her. Why?

He never planned to kill her.

If he did, he'd have stabbed her throat or heart right away.

And there weren't any signs of sexual assault.

He threatened her with a knife because she resisted.

Since he wasn't good with knives, he ended up killing her.

Killing her was a mistake.

How do you know all that as if you were the killer himself?

My childhood dream was...

to become a criminal.

What?

Is Mr. Kong still lying face down? His tailbone was broken into three pieces.

You really are amazing.

Why did you have to ask him to have that one-legged fight?

Hey! You...

Excuse me. Let me answer my phone.

Hello, Gook-du.

An officer from headquarters will protect you, so don't worry.

Where are you?

That's not necessary. Don't worry about me.

What if something happens to you?

This is official duty. Just do as you're told.

Where are you? I'll send him to you.

Gook-du.

I got a job in Ainsoft as a secretary.

Really?

-Are you at the office all day? -No, I go out here and there.

My boss is a very busy man.

I think she's insulting me.

The officer's name is Choi Si-won.

Let me talk to him when he arrives.

Okay.

Gook-du!

-Don't skip any meals. -Okay, bye.

Who was that?

A friend who graduated from police university with the top grades.

Oh, In Gook-du?

How did you know?

You called him Gook-du.

I didn't say his last name though.

Don't you remember where we met for the first time?

He's that police officer.

Your personality changes drastically when you talk to him.

You're my boss, but he's my friend.

It's obviously different.

Do you realize you're nice to him while you're rude to your boss?

No, I'm not.

I think it's all in your head.

You like that cop, right?

How did you know?

You're...

just too obvious.

I can see right through you.

He's good-looking.

-He's so... -He's totally my type.

Men lose interest if you're too forward.

If I can tell, it'll be even more obvious for him.

You said you don't like the police.

Just keep not liking them.

I like the good-looking ones.

Well...

But...

An officer will come to watch over me.

Why?

So you'll watch over Ms. Do Bong-soon all throughout the day?

-Yes. -But why?

She's watching me and you're watching her? This feels like some MLM scam.

Sir. Over here.

Sir.

She doesn't need your protection.

She's much, much stronger than you.

You don't believe me? Then try arm-wrestling her.

Or a one-legged fight.

I'm here on official police duty. Excuse me.

What the heck?

Mr. Kong's tailbone hasn't healed yet?

I told you it hasn't healed yet.

Right. It's been broken into three pieces.

Humans shouldn't have lost their tails.

He wouldn't be injured if he had a tail.

Like in the movie, Avatar. They communicate using their tails.

There's even this expression. "Wagging your tail."

It's a universal expression.

Why? Because Avatars communicate using their tails.

So how much longer will you watch over her?

Until I'm told to do otherwise.

The first reason I don't like the police is that they're too slow.

Second, they always arrive one step too late.

Third, they waste time doing pointless things. Fourth...

they don't listen when I advise them.

Official police duty? Gosh.

Good girl.

You're awake.

You have to wake up.

Do you know how hard it was to bring you here alive?

You're my first bride.

-Don't kill me... -What are you talking about?

I saved you when you were dying!

Keep quiet.

Don't kill me.

Don't kill me.

Don't be scared. A groom never hurts his bride.

Damn it!

Smile!

There are only two reasons indie game developers

don't come up with a sequel.

First, indie game developers have less human and financial resources.

Second, indie game developers

often have to gamble everything they have to launch a single game.

So there's little chance they'll develop a sequel.

They can't take a sequel into account from the beginning.

Their company's survival is dependent on that one game they have.

So rather than distributing their human and financial resources on sequels,

they usually invest everything into one game.

To create a sustainable market for indie games,

we must attract more investment to support the creativity of developers.

Thank you.

Officer, I'm really fine. Can't you just stay here?

I can't. This is official police duty.

Gosh!

Where did he go?

Mr. An, where are you going?

-The restroom. -Wait.

What?

Are you going to follow me in there?

Right.

Why don't you come with me? Let's skip a step.

What?

But Mr. An...

I'm a bodyguard, so I'll stand here.

My feet hurt.

Listen, you should have a one-legged fight with her.

I'm on official police duty.

Is peeing a part of that?

The woman who was kidnapped in Dobong-dong is alive.

He'll never kill her.

So don't investigate suspects with similar criminal records

like robbers, rapists, and murderers.

And listen to people when they give you advice.

Where the heck is she now?

-Do Bong-soon! -Yes!

Gosh! I lost him.

Lost who?

I saw someone suspicious, but he disappeared in a flash.

Suspicious people don't make it so obvious that they're suspicious.

Do you think everyone wearing a hat or a mask is a kidnapper or a robber?

It's the people who look...

-What's taking him so long? -What?

-Call 911. -What?

-Call 911, now! -Okay.

Oh, no.

I'm sorry. I should have caught him.

I didn't do my job.

I didn't expect him to use a knife.

I hoped I'd feel safe with you around.

It's gotten more dangerous now.

-You should quit. -No.

I'll make sure to prioritize your well-being over mine

so don't fire me.

-I'll protect you. -It's dangerous.

It could have been you who got stabbed.

I won't let them do that.

Don't you have any idea who it could be?

There are too many.

My stepbrothers, my competitors,

players I met offline to fight in real life...

There's no telling There are too many suspects.

The only person I trust in my family is my second brother.

I have another mother apart from my biological mother.

And I had another mother before her.

My family's a mess. I have three stepbrothers all from different mothers.

I told them I'm not interested in Dad's company and left.

And I became successful with Ainsoft, but...

that made my father even more determined to have me run his company.

Since then, I became the public enemy in my family.

Whoever it is, I will catch him.

Fortunately, the wound isn't deep, so we sutured and dressed it.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

Hi, Gook-du.

I'm almost done.

I'll be right there.

Did I make you wait?

No, I just got here.

It's our 100th day together today.

You've been too busy lately to notice, right?

We had a case last night.

We're working in shifts investigating it.

I have to go back to work later. Sorry.

No, that's okay.

I guess you couldn't get any sleep.

I'm sorry.

You should eat something quickly and get some sleep.

You were on duty last night.

-Let's eat something good. -Yes.

Bong-soon.

Stay with me today.

I'll protect you, and you'll protect me.

How about that?

You seem to be expecting something since I asked you to stay with me.

Don't get any ideas.

What are you talking about?

The thing that men and women often do when they're together for a long time.

Sir, why would I stay at your house?

I don't want to.

You really are hopeless.

What are you talking about?

Don't you want to try to seduce me?

Staying in my house is the opportunity of your life.

No, I do not intend to do so.

And according to what I've heard, you're not interested in women.

-Are you a woman? -Am I a man, then?

Just come to my house and stay there for a while.

It's in the contract.

"You must accept all requests that the client makes for the client's safety."

I never expected living together would be part of that "request."

Then what request did you expect?

Protecting my client from various threats.

That's what I'm talking about. I'm in danger right now.

What if an assassin breaks into my house at night?

Assassin? Are you being chased by a ninja?

I'm scared.

-Sleep with me at my house. -What?

Okay?

But he's gay...

No! I'm going home.

My parents are very strict.

Is everything going as planned?

I only have a few weeks left.

I'm doing well, but my fingers hurt a little.

Shouldn't you see a doctor?

I was planning to see one next week.

Sorry. I have to take it.

It's okay. Take it.

Hello?

Hey, the officer protecting Do Bong-soon was attacked.

What?

You like that cop, right? But he doesn't like you back.

You just have a crush on him, right?

-How did you know? -I can tell from how you act.

You'll only have crushes all your life.

Use me to make him jealous.

That's how men work. Even if they're not interested,

they'll start wanting you the moment someone else goes after you.

So stay with me today.

I don't want to be alone today.

Okay, fine.

But I charge double for overtime work.

This isn't a charity.

-Are you hungry? -What?

-Do you want something to eat? -Yes.

I'm not used to having just one meal a day yet.

Hi, Gook-du.

Here?

Wait. What's the address?

Sit.

It's hot.

Let's eat.

The walnut pie is good, right?

It is. We should go there again.

I think it's so-so.

You took me there.

My parents run the place.

That guy was my dad.

What? Why didn't you tell me?

-What for? -I wouldn't have gone if I knew.

That's why I didn't tell you. We have to make money.

You win. Is it good?

The noodles are a little soggy. I like them a little firm.

-This feels weird. -How so?

Eating instant noodles with a woman at night alone.

Do you mean you should eat with a man?

Have you ever dated someone?

You haven't, right?

Of course, I have.

I'm a "femme hommtal."

What's a "femme hommtal"?

Did you just mix femme fatale and homme fatale?

You have your way with words. "Femme hommtal!"

I'm just not good with foreign languages.

But please don't let that make you think that I am uneducated.

I won't.

-Eat up. -Okay.

Who is it?

Gook-du.

Whose house is this?

She's staying here with me today.

She can stay here, so don't worry.

What is this place?

-And who's this? -Well...

Let's go.

You can't stay over at a man's house.

Have you lost it? Come with me.

She's staying.

Who are you?

I need her here today.

I'm taking her with me.

I told you I won't let you.

-I'm taking her. -And I won't allow it.

I will take her.

You can't.

STRONG GIRL BONG-SOON

From now on, I will be in charge of protecting Ms. Do Bong-soon.

-Whatever. -History is made overnight.

-Let's do it. -That's not the kind of person I am.

-You've got to be kidding me. -Did you sleep with him?

-I did. -All men are dogs!

-Look here. -I'm looking.

She's here. It's Do Bong-soon!

-You should be nice. -Take us in, ma'am!

It feels like Bong-soon is at the center of the universe.

Bring her to me or you'll all be dead!

How strong are you? Are you a man?

Your friend was very worried about you.

You have a girlfriend. So why are you pretending to care for me?

Will you be all right alone?

Are you worried about me?

I can see right through you.
