Original subtitles

Type of death is

A simple 'hit and run' accident.

A disguised 'hit and run' accident.

Homicide.

Help me!

Discovery site...

The body was found near the north side of Gyeonggi State Road.

Based on multiple injuries and skin avulsions, it was caused by multiple impacts.

Prosecutor's Office prejudged it as a hit and run case.

The body was discovered on the national highway.

The skin wounds and injuries throughout the body were caused by multiple impacts.

The prosecutor presumed it to be a case of hit and run .

It looks like the damage to the left part of tibia was caused by the bumper.

Bumper can be speculated to belong to a truck, size about one ton.

The possibility of a large vehicle is relatively high.

The vehicle's high-speed impact caused a fatal head injury.

Skull fracture and cerebral contusion are the fatal causes of death.

Turn off the light and prepare the UV illumination.

Are there any UV lights here?

Only the HQ in Seoul has them.

Do we have to transfer the corpse to HQ?

Actually, there is a UV lighting set nearby.

What?

It's not far. Just ten minutes from here.

It's room number 2.

- = Episode 5 =- It's room number 2.

- = Episode 5 =- Welcome!

Welcome!

Good afternoon. I'm from the southern NFS br...

We're from NFS and we came here to spend some time.

Yes.

It's not like that.

Actually, the autopsy needs..

30 minutes to relieve pressure.

Relaxing for 30 minutes?

Yes.

Room 5.

- Should we pay first? - Thank you.

Do you think people will lend things to us just because you say NFS needs them for autopsy?

How could they lend us things they do business with?

What's your plan then ..?

Is this your first visit to a karaoke?

While I'm singing, you take it down quickly.

What?

Didn't you plan to use it to look for evidence?

The family is waiting to arrange the funeral.

We must find evidence or something.

This is free of charge.

Oppa!

ahh...This dance is quite popular, nowadays!

Do not step too hard.

Thank you!

Quickly.

Quick.

I am sorry.

We will return it in original condition.

We're back.

What is this?

Ultraviolet light from karaoke.

Quickly, close the curtains.

Ultraviolet Photography. It can also be called a UV Camera.

The naked eye cannot see evidence under the skin..

UV rays can help us find things that we can't see.

The vehicle involved is a 1 ton white lightweight truck.

Looks like the bumper has a special emblem.

The windshield has a special emblem at the bottom.

It is a 1-ton white lightweight truck.

Comprehensive scene survey based on the result and all situations

The estimated death time is one week ago.

Wait, I know... I know... I understand this.

But how is it not just a hit and run case?

There are traces of multiple injuries caused by the same vehicle.

If this was a hit and run,

This wound here, that wound there, couldn't they be caused by it, too?

This wound and the shinbone fracture were not received at the same time.

It's already blackish, don't you see?

Those wounds were sustained at least a few days ago.

There is the same special emblem.

It's highly probable that the 2nd injury occurred within a few days.

There was a gap of several days before the second accident?

Honestly, how can the victim just let the attacker commit murder?

Does that make any sense?

I'm just telling you the results of the autopsy.

I can only tell you this..

It's the same vehicle... within a few days, it hit the same person twice.

Looking at this... The brake wasn't applied. It was deliberate, a murder.

Why then does he want to kill deliberately ?

An autopsy cannot analyze a criminal's psychology.

As you said,

The victim would not voluntarily let the criminal kill her.

Whether it be drugs or alcohol,

something like that might have been used to immobilize the victim.

We'll know about it once the result of the blood sample comes out.

That result should be helpful to the investigation.

Once the result comes out, I will inform you.

Autopsy concluded.

Transfer the corpse to the morgue.

You mean the analysis of the blood samples?

Yes.. The blood sample analysis.

Is it okay if you don't examine it?

The conclusion of the autopsy was as a pure accident.

But I think that a complete analysis...

Dr. Koo Sung-Tae...

Today is a very important day for NFS.

They say a good name is worth a thousand words.

How important the autopsy is in the judicial investigation...

How much information the autopsy lets us obtain...

That's what the Vice Minister must definitely understand today.

-But.. -The blood sample analysis...

The earliest we can have the result is in two days.

We cannot wait for two days to impress the Vice Minster.

We must have a conclusion now.

This.....

is very important for the future of NFS.

That is why we must be cautious...

I.. don't you trust me?

Of course, I do.

I am sorry.

I'm impressed that our country has these skilled hands.

Thank you for you work.

I heard the autopsy of a traffic accident victim Is quite difficult.

However, it appears

to be just a rumor.

Not this ..

but director..your superb skill does the trick

I don't deserve such praise.

Everybody at NFS

is this skilled.

Indeed. This is truly the most solid and top level institution.

For civil servants like us whose salaries are paid by the state,

This is our obligation.

I always feel like you'll be asking for more money again... Pretty frightening...

You watched such a long and uninteresting autopsy... You should be very tired.

How about tea?

We also prepared some simple refreshments.

Let's go.

Oh?Was this Detective Choi's case?

Doctor!

It's not my case.

I just came to take a look .

I don't know how this type of special lighting works. Makes me curious.

That was an autopsy using ultraviolet light.

This is a forensic method used to determine the cause of death.

NFS really has many surprising things.

But what was everyone looking at?

The lighting ray...

Very shiny like this after the illumination...

There appeared an eagle-shaped emblem.

It seems...

like she came from near Gyeongsang.

How did she actually die here?

Have to let the corpse speak.

Why are you here?

Clerical Supervisor asked me to come to the laboratory.

The evidence from the crime scene that you gave us..

We found partially burned notes in the shirt pocket.

You can see for yourself.

This is the receipt from a highway toll booth.

Yeah... Although it's already quite badly destroyed,

we can see some text.

It's a receipt from the Gooil toll gate.

Unfortunately, we cannot confirm the date or time.

But what's important...

This is not the actual crime scene.

Altogether, seven overlapping receipts were left behind.

Receipts from Gooil.

The criminal either lives or works there.

This may be associated with the criminal.

Where is the Gooil toll gate?

It's near the southern branch of NFS.

Dr. Yoon.

Can you come with me?

I'm busy, very busy.

I am going to the karaoke place. Can't you come with me?

Didn't you hear me? I'm busy.

You don't have an autopsy.

Anyway,it's not very far.

Hey! You really are troublesome.

No.

I didn't borrow it to use it myself.

Since it was used in the post-mortem..Let's go together.

Why do I have to go alone?

Ae?!

Aren't you moving?

Get out of my way!

You think that I will do whatever you want.

You think that you can bully me?

Tell me the truth.You are afraid of losing.

I'm not.

It's obvious that you are afraid of losing!

Look here! How can you enter like this?!

Do not think that just because you helped a little, you will officially become a medical examiner!

You are my autopsy assistant!

Assistant should behave like an assistant! Don't bother me!

That's not it.

I wanted to say I'll be right back.

Then, please continue.

Oh, Mom! How can you take so long to answer my call?

This pretty daughter of yours wants to go home.

Oh sorry! I didn't answer my pretty daughter's call.

Okay, I forgive you anyway.

Oh thanks!

Oh right! Where are you?

Very near, already.

Parking lot?

Then wait there, don't move, I'm coming.

Forget it! I'm almost there.

Oh , is that you ?

- What? - Nothing.

How come she isn't answering?

- = Jo Jeong Eun =-

- = Gooil IC =-

Ah, yeah.

Yes! I am already here.

I've been waiting here for you to pass.

Ah! Yeah.

Are you Officer Young Jun from Gooil?

Let's stop now. I'll stop by next time.

Hello.

I'm Choi Yi-han fromSeoul CID.

Ah, Yeah!

I'm so sorry you had to come here.

I am a little busy.

It's all right.

I'm sorry. Thank you for your trouble.

You're here about an arsonist?

In our jurisdiction,

since last year, there were a number of vehicle arson cases.

We think that the criminal probably comes from around here.

We found a lot of Gooil toll gate receipts in the vehicle.

Yes?

Has this neighborhood received a report of arson?

Well, here, as you can see... It won't burn even if you set it on fire.

Please help me, senior...

Because of these malicious crimes

For a few months, I have not slept soundly.

Well, I'll see what I can do.

- = Jeong Eun's Mom =-

Excuse me for a moment.

Jeong Eun's mom?

Huh...

You continue to talk. I will collect them.

Yeah!

I will go right away.

It is being handled as a missing-person case.

Yes, yes I know.

Hanging up.

This is..

This hit and run case really gives me a headache.

NFS's southern branch insisted that it was a homicide.

Homicide?

You don't have to worry about it.

The evidence under the skin that can't be discovered with the naked eye..

Can be revealed by UV light.

How do you know where my house is?

You personally showed me the way, Prosecutor.

Me?

Remember? Last week you went to Karaoke with colleagues and got drunk?

That day, you took me home?

Why?

How can I leave a drunk person?

Ms. Prosecutor.

Me?

Which number?

Go straight.

Seriously! I'm going crazy here!

Which number?

You can't remember anything about that night?

That's right! I can't recall anything!

Really? You don't?

You did seem plastered.

I would not be like that.

You can't even remember I took you home?

Is it possible..You entered my house?

That's right.

Wait - how can you enter a drunk woman's house?

You can't enter a single woman's house without permission.

You want to be accused of sexual harassment? Huh?!

No,how could I...

leave a drunk person outside her door?

Even if I entered your house...

I didn't touch you.

Ms. Prosecutor! You are simply not my type.

Don't you think I have higher standards than that?

So you come here this late just to tell me what type of woman you like?

Certainly not.

I am very busy, too.

Then say what you have to say and leave.

Take it easy!

I have something huge for you.

Anyway, if anybody else heard it, they would think I was crazy.

But if you want to succeed as an outstanding, ambitious prosecutor,

you will certainly be interested.

It's a serial murder case.

There is a connection between Lee Yun Joon and a victim in Gyeongsang.

Lee Yun Joo's body was found in Gyeonggi,

Still, these two people were killed by a truck with the same emblem pattern.

Didn't the autopsy report say it was a hit-and-run case?

Its true in Lee Yun Joon's case..

But Go Ah Ran's autopsy showed that it was a murder disguised as a hit-and-run.

However, that is not sufficient evidence to show that it is serial murder.

If we find a victim with the same murder method... That's another matter.

There is one.

Jeong Eun! My child!

Jeong Eun..Jeong Eun!

Mommy's here.. my child Jeong Eun!

Mommy's here! Mommy's here!

Jeong Eun... My daughter is not dead... Look at me, don't go!

Jeong Eun Mommy's here!

My Jeong Eun didn't die... My daughter didn't die!

My daughter Jeong Eun!

Jeong Eun, Mommy's here!

Jeong Eun!

Jeong Eun!

You are saying that there's some irregularity in Lee Yun Joo's case?

Why do you ask this?

Yesterday,I looked at the Lee Yun Joo documents.

And then...

I will get straight to the point.

Was Lee Yun Joo's postmortem examination done properly?

Prosecutor Jung Woo Jin. What do you mean?

I am not suspecting you.

I just want to know whether there were external factors...

that affected the normal process.

Prosecutor Jung Woo Jin!

That day, the minister came to visit here.

Did that visit affect your postmortem examination result?

Please answer.

No! Certainly not.

Are you satisfied with my answer?

Yes.

Now it is my turn to ask you, Prosecutor, a question.

What is your purpose?

Lee Yun Joo went south to meet her relatives.

A few days later, she was found in the vicinity of Gyeonggi.

However , Lee Yun Joon was attending a celebration in Gyeongnam, near Gyeongsang.

They found another dead body and presumed it was a hit-and-run case.

The name is Go Ah Ran.

The type of the vehicle was the same as in Lee Yun Joo's case.

Its a light 1-ton truck.

There is an eagle emblem under the windscreen.

However, under autopsy with the UV light, the medical examiner's view of Go Ah Ran's case

was different from yours, Director.

Cause of death was multiple injuries caused by traffic accident.

The type of death is....

Murder disguised as a simple accident.

You want to say that the same car...

Killed two people. So is this a serial murder case?

It's three people.

Another victim was found last night.

You have no firm evidence to prove it as a homicide,

other than the autopsy result.

Have Lee Yun Joo's blood-sample results come out?

We're assuming Go Ah Ran's autopsy result to be true. If this is homicide,

the blood-sample results should show traces of sedatives or narcotics for all victims. Then, the probability can be very high.

If the blood samples of Lee Yun Joo, Go Ah Ran, and the third victim

show traces of the same substance, then

this is, most certainly, a serial murder case.

When Lee Yun Joo's blood-sample results come out,

please inform me immediately.

The medical examiner who says this case is a homicide,

who is it?

NFS's Southern branch's

Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon.

Have Lee Yun Joon's blood-sample results come out?

No, not yet.

Do it as soon as possible.

What?

Anesthetics, sedatives...

all pharmaceutical products used in this country.

I would like to see the result for all of them.

There isn't enough blood because of excessive bleeding.

Do it anyway!!

Jeong Eun!

Jeong Eun!

Jeong Eun... Where are you going? Mommy's here!

Mommy's here! Mommy's here!

Multiple impact wounds and skin abrasion

Posterior tibial side Messerer fractures. (Unique leg fracture due to bumper hit)

Chest: two injuries.

There's also a bruise looking like an emblem,

consistent with Go Ah Ran's.

Some things are not the same as in Go Ah Ran's case.

But if it can be determined the death was caused by the identical truck..

If Go Ah Ran was a victim of homicide,

then Jo Jeong Eun's death was also a homicide.

This is a serial murder committed by the same criminal, Doctor.

The autopsy has not begun yet. Stop speculating.

You are right.

Start the examination.

Yes.

Is this really true?

I see her particularly as my niece

Only 18 years old..

Is it the same person....

....who killed her?

Was it the same perpetrator? I, too, am very curious.

What are you doing here?

Your tone has not changed a bit.

I am asking... Why did you come here?

I'm the prosecutor in charge of this case.

These are the photos from Jo Jeong Eun's examination.

What is the conclusion of the autopsy ?

You want the conclusion?

Get approval from the real Prosecutor in charge, then come again.

Can you excuse us for a minute?

Yes.

It is the same truck.

A 1-ton truck with an emblem under the windshield.

Besides your two postmortem examinations....

there is a third person who died because of the same truck.

Director Lee Myung Han did the autopsy in Seoul.

But the result ended up as a simple accident.

With the same truck, three people died.

This is a serial killer.

We must form a special investigation team as soon as possible.

But the evidence is still insufficient.

We must have solid evidence.

Did the blood-sample results come out?

If we can find traces of the same anesthetic or sedative in all three victims,

it can be proof of identical crime.

Since you performed the postmortem examinations, you should be clearer than anyone else.

You are hoping that this is a serial murder case, aren't you?

You want to get hold of a big case and go back to the Public Prosecutor's Office.

Senior, aren't you the same?

If these homicides were committed by the same offender...

you can fight Director Lee Myung Han.

Don't you think about being reinstated at headquarters?

Get out if you are done!

No, until I have the evidence... I will not leave.

Find it!

Even if you had not come looking, I still would have found it.

That's my obligation!

Therefore, get out!

Senior, do you know how boring you are?

You were just the same when we were dating.

These two were dating?

Senior, you think that you are so great.

You have always been autocratic .

You think you are the center of the universe.

I am the center of my universe.

I'm not interested in the ideas of others.

But I am not like you.

On the surface you pretend to appear calm...

but then you stab people in the back.

Let's just stop here.

What if I don't?

If discovering the evidence is your job....

Then finding the murderer is mine.

Perhaps at this very moment...

The murderer is killing someone.

Until we have concrete evidence,

I am not leaving.

This looks better than I expected.

In the midst of corpses, they still have time to talk about love?

She asked I am what ?

My medical examiner's qualifications?

Cheer up!

Dr. Hong, emergency case! Emergency case!

What is it?

Dr. Hong , didn't you want to strike at Lee Myeong Han?

Lee Myeong Han? How?

Ju Jeong Eun and Go Ah Ran, the blood samples have not been processed yet ?

Quick, check them out

If you find traces of tranquilizer or anesthetic in the samples,

then, not only can we be reinstated at headquarters,

we can also get rid of Lee Myung Han.

What do you mean?

What do the blood samples have to do with Lee Myung Han?

You are just making fun of me, aren't you?

This is no time to joke around.

Right!

This is not a joke.

I promise that you will be reinstated at headquarters.

But...

Before that...

We must find the evidence in the blood samples.

Can you do that?

Yeah! Yoon Ji Hoon speaking.

Doctor! There is nothing.

Lidocaine,Bupivacaine,Antropine,Halothane,morphine,alcohol..

We checked all those but came up with nothing.

How about sedatives?

Haven't checked that.

Do it right now.

But there is a problem.

There is not enough blood.

Go Ah Ran and Jo Jeong Eun had lost excessive amounts of blood.

We can't do more testing because the amount of blood is insufficient.

It's only enough for limited testing.

I understand. Wait. I will call you later.

Wait for now.

A medical examiner is also a human.

Who cannot be always right.

Who occasionally can make a mistake.

Who occasionally will detour.

Who also regrets not having enough time.

These times....

You must listen to the last words of the deceased.

This is what we must do.

If I investigate this case personally, I'll feel much better

OK!

Start with the crime scene and search again.

Bastard! I'll catch you!

Any progress?

We're performing qualitative analysis.

We're performing qualitative analysis.

- = qualitative analysis: gives an indication of the identity of the chemical species in the sample and determines the amount = -

So far we have tested for benzocaine barbiturates, morphine and so on, but no traces have been found.

So far we have tested for benzocaine barbiturates, morphine and so on, but no traces have been found.

I will wait until the results come out.

Let me know immediately.

That's twice in front of the officer.

You didn't know right?

It is not a hit-and-run case, but a murder case.

If the media find out about this being a homicide,

everybody's going to be disappointed in NFS's Director.

The results aren't out yet.

There is still... A 50-50 chance.

Half and half!

That probability is very low.

Then the probability of NFS's 50 billion investment is also 50%.

That is also the probability of Yoon Ji Hoon's return.

Either because of this serial killer..

..or the other.

We definitely cannot let Yoon Ji Hoon return to NFS.

Yoon Ji Hoon knows Seo Yoon Hyeong's case.

It won't happen.

What are you doing?

Doctor!

Why are you here?

If you are that afraid, what are you doing here ?

You are also looking for evidence?

I have been looking, but there is nothing.

You came here as an on-site investigator?....

or as a medical examiner?

The on-site investigator records the scene.

You are involved in the forensic autopsy.

You need to keep in mind the autopsy result.

And look for the evidence at the scene.

Autopsy result?

Jo Jeong Eun's corpse tells us..

How she died? Why she died?

The autopsy photos showed dozens of wounds...

So it's a multiple-injury accident?

Also,

On her body, there was a lot of abrasion marks.

Weren't the abrasions caused by the accident ?

Those scrape marks were not from the accident.

The scrape marks were obtained later.

But other marks were likely obtained before death, too.

The accident injury and after-death injury...

The marks are quite similar.

It is not easy to see the difference.

But judging from blood congealment and the direction of the marks,

The abrasion wounds were definitely obtained after death.

Why did it happen that way?

First, the victim was hit by the vehicle.

It's flat farmland around here.

While it freezes here in the winter,

even if the body was thrown by the vehicle,

It is still impossible to have that much abrasion.

Perhaps, after the accident,

could the victim have been dragged by the vehicle?

No, Jo Jeong Eun was not dragged by the car at the scene.

The wounds were not from asphalt abrasion.

So , in the end, what caused the abrasion?

Is it tree branches ?

The only tree branches are on the slope.

If you let the corpse roll down from the top...

Your clothes are quite thick.

Let us go hiking.

Oh well, just by looking at this, you can't know anything.

The date and time are missing.

Each day, several hundreds of vehicles pass by here.

Can it really be here?

Have to look around to know.

I'll take this side.

Then I'll take that.

Go Da Kyung.

Call me, if there is something wrong.

Yeah....

What is it?

Dr. Yoon...

I thought to talk on the phone..

to assure each other's safety.

I'll say it again...

Call me when you find important evidence.

No word from Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon yet?

No...

He just told us to wait, but where did he go?

Listen...

Have you examined what kind of sedative was there?

If we look for sedatives...

and don't find anything..what then?

We can't do more tests without more blood..

We're waiting for Dr.Yoon Ji Hoon's orders.

- =Acepromazine :antipsychotic drug generally used for animals=-

Dr. Yoon?

Yeah... I understand.

Let's look for Acepromazine again.

Acepromazine.

It's a sedative normally used for animals.

What's the result?

So, what was it?

The examination is finished.

The result?

Go Ah Ran. Jo Jeung Eun. The two bodies have the same drug.

Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon was right.

Both bodies that he examined contained the sedative Acepromazine.

Haha! We were right!

The body contains the sedative Acepromazine.

What's up?

Doctor, the truck is here!

It has the eagle-shaped emblem.

It also has clear accident traces.

What?

Wasn't it you a moment ago in that warehouse?

No. I walked just now toward the rear building.

Doctor! is it you?

Someone was here just now.

Is it not you..Doctor?

It wasn't me.

There was someone here.

If it's not you....

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh...

Lee Myung Han was wrong! Lee Myung Han!

We were right!

Senior ..

We discovered Jo Jeong Eun's crime scene. Call the police quickly!

What are you saying?

Here at the scene...

The truck is here. Call the police. Quick!

Where are you?

We are on our way.

Please come as soon as possible.

Don't come near. Don't come near.

Don't hit me! Don't hit me!

I am the police, the police! I really am.

I really am the police!

No, he's the criminal!

This person is a criminal!

Stop!

That's right.

He is from the Songpa District CID..the good-for-nothing Officer Choi Yi-Han.

I kept saying my name over and over again.

Really! You should have listened to me.

Why did you follow me like that?

I thought you were the criminal!

With that attire,how can I make out whether you are a man or woman?

Stop it.

Will you explain why you are here?

I wanted to investigate where Jo Jeong Eun's body was found.

I was looking at the hillside....and then something suspicious came up....that was him.

I also suffered.....can't you see?!

He suddenly ran out.

Why did you hit me? Why?

Who told you to chase me?

I thought you were the criminal.

Who told you to run away?

Really..a thief calling someone else a thief.

You know I was scared to death just now?

Why did you hit me?

We know, we know, you already said so.

Choi Yi Han.... how did you end up here?

I came here to investigate the arson case.

And met an acquaintance at the Gooil toll gate who knew something

about the previous arson case that you threw out because of lack of evidence.

That arsonist suspect..Ahn Soo Hyun.

How can you drive like that?

Officer!

Why are you here?

I'm doing a part-time job.

You call that driving?

It was not my fault. You suddenly popped up!

Like I care what you tell me...

Why are you doing this?

Where were you three days ago?

In Seoul, South Korea Hospital.

Having surgery for appendicitis.

Until yesterday,I was at the hospital. I was discharged this morning.

What is that?

What?

This, this, this, this!

It looks nice. so I put it up there.

I thought that the emblem on this other truck was very pretty.

What other truck?

Do not lie to me. Tell the truth!

It's true!

Go see it at the farm.

The farmer's truck, I thought it was pretty.

So I just got the same emblem and stuck it there.

According to Ahn Soo Hyun,

the truck's owner is...

This farm's owner, Lee Jeong Beom.

Chief, this is Jung Woo Jin.

The body found near Gyeongnam...

It looks like serial murder.

No. It was identified as an on-site murder.

At present, we have confirmed the victims to be three.

Yes.

All right.

Three people have been murdered,

We must set up a special team to investigate this thoroughly.

It's not just three people.

What?

These bones... Belong to a human.

-= Next Episode Preview =-

The whole story of this serial murder will be revealed.

You were disrespectful in front of the prosecutor.

National Forensic Service.

Hand over all samples from this case to the Prosecutor's Office and DFC Group.

It was my fault. I was wrong, not NFS.

The lead coroner in this case... Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon from NFS.

As I said..

I will come back to prove that I was right.

From now on I will show you how to advance the NFS

Before the coming election, we cannot let Yoon Ji Hoon spread his wings and fly back.

NFS is responsible for solving the serial murder case.

How did you get into that position of yours, have you forgotten?

It's absolutely impossible for Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon to fly back here.

It was when you grabbed my shoulder.

When did I do that?

But I saw somebody run away.

That. That hand. Whose hand was it?

Must be somebody else's.

He was just arrested.

There is no conclusive evidence to prove him guilty now..

Doctor, Please let me participate in this autopsy.

You may not participate in this case. Therefore..go back.

If that person is left-handed, then he's the criminal.

He is left-handed.

There was a boy who kept following her. He set our house on fire.

Fire... Committed arson?

The victim will instantly resist with the right arm.

Therefore the criminal must be left-handed.

Go Da Kyung. You're right.
