Original subtitles

I know the real culprit...

of the Jo Pil Doo case.

I saw him...

kill another person. The name of the real culprit...

isn't Jo Pil Doo.

It's Kim Hyung Soo.

After getting that call,

I went to look for Kim Hyung Soo.

If he was truly the murderer,

he had to pay.

But?

When I arrived there,

he was long gone.

So the culprit wasn't Jo Pil Doo?

The person who killed Mi Jin...

wasn't Jo Pil Doo?

No.

This afternoon at Joongang Hospital, the on-site inspection...

for the Jo Pil Doo murder case was conducted.

The suspect, Yoo,

is the mother of Lee, a victim of the recent copycat crime...

- of Jo Pil Doo's case. - I'm glad that guy died.

- My gosh. - After she read an article...

suspecting Jo may be related to the death of her daughter,

- she came to commit such a crime. - That's awful.

The police asked reporters...

to refrain from reporting on speculations.

After the on-site investigation,

the police plan on sending Yoo to the prosecution...

for the murder of Jo Pil Doo.

(Episode 15)

Who are you?

Stop flashing that on me.

He's keeping a watch with a surveillance camera.

It's behind you, on the top.

So if you stand in that corner,

he won't be able to see you.

Since when were you locked up?

"Since when"?

Tell me. You are...

Kim Hyung Soo, aren't you?

Hey, how do you know my name?

Are you the police?

No, I'm not.

But...

I do want to catch Goo Do Kyung.

I can help you.

But in return, get me out of here.

I've tried all sorts of things,

but the door just won't budge.

I think the only way...

is to cut through this.

(Stop)

I'll come back with a tool.

Let's go...

to the police station together.

If you report this in advance,

he may slip away.

Okay.

I'll do that. Wait here.

You must hurry. I'll be waiting.

Okay.

Joon Young?

Can we talk for a minute?

Come on in.

What are you doing?

I won't be deceived again.

I hate having hidden cameras.

I told you that I wanted to talk.

That's what Chief Nam said.

He just wanted to talk.

Sit down.

(The Game: Towards Zero)

So many people want to see me these days.

Are you here to say you're sorry?

Don't be deluded.

I feel no pity for you.

What's wrong?

Did you want to be understood?

Do you want me to take responsibility...

for your father who was wrongly accused...

and for ruining your life?

I don't know about anyone else,

but one thing for sure is that I can't demand that from you.

Your father...

passed away because of mine.

Do you...

pity me now?

I doubt...

your father getting killed...

was part of your plan.

I can understand that you feel bitterness, hatred,

and the desire to avenge him.

But stop here.

Do I look...

like a monster to you?

Turn yourself in, Jo Hyun Woo.

I thought...

you'd sympathize with me even if it was just a little bit.

There's absolutely no justification for murder.

Do you think you could still say that...

after losing someone dear to you?

Mi Jin, whom you murdered,

was dear to her parents.

I know.

That's why I killed her.

Hyun Woo.

Next time I come here,

it won't end so smoothly.

I'll be anticipating.

You.

I'm going to arrest you myself.

I hope so.

Yes, Tae Pyung.

Hey, Joon Young. What are you doing?

What do you think? I'm working like a busy bee.

Why do you ask?

Why do you think?

I'm just worried.

Don't worry about me.

Gosh, Tae Pyung. I'm a cop.

I should be worried about...

[VIU Ver] MBC E15 'The Game: Towards Zero' "Hyun Woo's Basement" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Joon Young.

Tae Pyung.

- What... - I thought you were working.

Cops aren't supposed to lie.

I'm here for a case.

Then, what about you? Why are you...

Since you're working,

I want you to do one more task.

Let's go.

Wait.

Sir, are you not going home?

(Chief Nam Woo Hyun)

Detective Min Chul Hyung from the station in the north?

Back in the days,

he was in charge of Jo Hyun Woo's case.

As he couldn't reach any of his family members,

someone from the orphanage came and identified the body.

If Jo Hyun Woo killed Goo Do Kyung...

to get a new identity...

Gosh, that someone from the orphanage...

must have been Jo Hyun Woo.

I'll meet with him.

The detective might remember him...

if I show him an old photo of Jo Hyun Woo.

Who are you looking for?

Well, you know...

he's always around the house.

I see. Mr. Baek?

He's not here right now. Let's go.

But...

can't you tell me why I'm here first?

Well,

I can't. There's no talking about it.

Let's go.

But...

This way, please. All right.

Don't worry.

What are we doing here, if talking isn't required?

Gosh, do you always carry your gun around?

I'm in trouble. I'm not wearing a bulletproof vest today.

Will you stop deflecting my questions?

Well, I wanted you to have a meal before you go.

I had a feeling you skipped a meal.

I'll cook a meal for you. Is that okay?

Give me some time.

Right.

If you're bored, entertain yourself with comic books over there.

You can listen to the radio too.

Do you like the sea?

I guess you can say that.

That I like it.

Wait here.

I don't want it. Take it.

Do you want to starve for a few days again?

Hey.

Hey. When you killed that girl,

how did it feel?

I'm talking about the daughter...

of the reporter that harassed you.

Why are you curious about that?

Why?

Just listening to it is enough to get you off?

You won't eat this, will you?

I'll eat it. I will.

Didn't I tell you?

Eat when I offer it to you. Okay?

Why did you say you wouldn't when you were going to eat that?

Joon Young,

should we build a house here?

Once I'm not busy as much,

let's build a house here where there are no bad guys.

Whenever I'm here,

it feels like Mom's here with me.

I prepared it because Tae Pyung asked.

But I'm not sure if it will fit you.

Put this on and come out.

You cooked it pretty fast.

Right? It was kind of random.

Why haven't you changed?

Were they in the wrong size?

How did you know?

I never showed you that my top was ripped.

How did you know?

Did you install a spy cam at Do Kyung's place or something?

Yes.

I did.

Tae Pyung.

I never wanted to deceive you...

or to have you find out like this.

Why do you seem so proud?

Do you think you became something...

after working with the police for a few days?

No, it's not like that...

Who do you think you are to take things this far?

Kim Hyung Soo is...

confined in his basement.

I saw him with my own eyes.

How do you know...

who Kim Hyung Soo is?

I overheard Chief Nam...

and Do Kyung's conversation.

I'll be punished for the violation of any related laws.

I don't want to put you in a tough spot.

Hand over all the footage you took with that camera to this day.

As of this moment, do not lay your hands on those videos.

Don't get curious or think you know anything about this case.

That's how you can help me.

Joon Young.

Be careful.

I'm waiting for you.

You said you'll come in a hurry.

Hurry up and come.

I'm waiting for you.

Are you sure it was Kim Hyung Soo?

Yes, she also went over and saw him with her two eyes.

Are you sure you took this footage?

Yes, I should've done a better job during the search and seizure.

I'm sorry.

That's not what I'm talking about.

If I must be disciplined, I will accept it.

However, let me take the action...

after we arrest Do Kyung and Hyung Soo.

Forget it. I can take all the disciplinary action.

What's your plan?

Make sure you block his entrance.

And block off the stairs too.

Get moving.

- Bong Soo. - Yes, sir.

He might try to run, so keep your eyes on the back alley.

Yes, sir.

May I help you?

We received a complaint from your neighbor...

that something smells bad.

My neighbor filed a complaint?

Yes, please excuse us.

I don't cook at home.

So...

there's no way anything could smell bad.

It's not food. They said it smells like a rotting body.

We are allowed to conduct a search without a warrant...

if we receive a report through the call center.

Please move aside.

Joon Young!

This is weird. Something is sticking out.

- Check. - Yes.

This door must lead to your basement.

Passcode.

If you don't want to tell us, feel free to open it yourself.

11...

09.

(Episode 16 will air shortly.)

(Episode 16)

Don't get curious...

or think you know anything about this case.

That's how you can help me.

What is this?

This basement was here ever since I moved in.

This is an old remodeled house once owned by the Japanese imperialists.

I heard this was once used as a bomb shelter.

Did it reek of a dead body?

Are we all clear now?

Yes, Joon Young.

It's me.

What happened?

I went inside and looked,

but it was just a storage.

What?

Are you sure you saw Kim Hyung Soo locked up in there?

That can't be right.

He was definitely locked up behind some bars...

Anyway,

I searched everywhere else other than the basement,

but there was no one who looked like him.

I'll call you again.

Oh, okay.

Let's go.

- This is nice. - I'll take a photo now.

Dad, look here.

7, 6, 5, 4...

- No. - No, Dad.

- No, Dad. - Don't take it.

- Hey, Han Kyu. - Darn it.

What is it?

I can't believe him. Taking a photo won't take that long.

He needs to throw that phone away.

It's like his girlfriend.

- What? - It's more important than us.

Honey, I think I need to go out.

- Is it bad? - I'll have to find out.

But it's Christmas.

I'll make sure we spend next Christmas together.

That's what you said last year.

I promise.

The culprit probably followed her for a long time...

before the abduction.

Where have I seen him?

He definitely looks familiar.

Who is he?

It's not that easy.

Thank you so much.

I'm sorry.

It's nothing...

I'm sorry, but I'll have to call you back.

Check on the patient later.

Will it take four hours?

Excuse me. Hello.

Do you remember me?

I'm Lee Mi Jin's father. She was in Room 307.

Oh, right. How may I help you?

Do you remember the man who was with you last time?

Him.

I do know him.

What is it? Is there another problem?

Sorry?

The day your daughter passed away, the police arrested him.

He called the hospital later and said he was acquitted.

Anyway, he's not a hospital staff.

He's a medical examiner at the NFS.

His name is Goo Do Kyung.

(Hana Daily Office)

(Hana Daily Office)

Hello, you've reached Hana Daily.

It's me, Lee Jun Hee.

Hello, sir.

- Who is this? - I'm Oh Ye Ji, an intern.

Are you looking for Mr. Park?

No, I'm not.

Could you come out for a bit?

Sorry? Are you talking about me?

I have something to ask you.

Sure.

Here.

Hey.

Actually, there's something I wanted to ask Han Kyu,

but I can't because of what happened.

He deserved it.

But what is it about?

Should I ask him instead?

Well...

Did you find out anything about him?

A medical examiner at NFS?

Yes.

I heard he was acquitted,

so I was wondering if you heard anything.

No, I didn't.

All right.

Seoul Joongang Police Station has been strictly forbidding us...

from entering these days.

But still, they would've talked about the medical examiner,

but this is my first time hearing about this.

What is this?

What is the police hiding?

If they had arrested him without a warrant,

we should've heard something about it.

Det. Seo came and looked for a photo of Jo Hyun Woo before.

A photo of Jo Hyun Woo?

Yes. She said she had something to check and took one photo.

Could you send me that photo as well?

I've been looking through them from yesterday evening.

Goo Do Kyung is the only one who has walked through the door.

Are you sure you checked all the footage?

Yes.

Joon Young.

Chief Nam wants to see you.

Let me ask you again.

Are you sure you saw Kim Hyung Soo with your own eyes?

Yes.

When?

Pardon?

You said you saw him, so when?

I saw him on the 26th.

Then bring me the recorded footage from that day.

If you saw him that day,

there must be footage of you being there.

You didn't see him, did you?

Then who was it?

Won't you talk?

I'm sorry.

But I'm certain that Do Kyung hid Hyung Soo.

You didn't even see him, and yet, you're certain?

Yes.

Are you not going to tell me?

No matter how much you ask, I can't tell you.

Hey, Tae Pyung.

This is something the police would do, not you.

Joon Young is in a pickle because of me.

I started it, so I should end it as well.

Jo Hyun Woo and Kim Hyung Soo both committed murder.

They're murderers.

That's why I've prepared these.

If these don't work, I'll have to fight them with my bare hands.

You've gone insane.

No, I'm totally fine.

Look.

On the night of the 26th, the GPS signals came...

from this reservoir.

I don't know how he did it,

but Hyung Soo must be here.

So what? What will you do?

What do you think? I'll bring him back.

You're going to bring that murderer into this house?

Not here. To the police station.

Mr. Baek would be worried if he found out,

so keep it a secret.

I already know you're here.

You reek of perfume.

Come on, now. That was harsh.

If you're unhappy, then pick only one perfume.

What is it?

Do we need to be that worried?

Does everyone become fearless once they can see death?

It's not because of that.

It's because he's in love.

So what's your plan?

I'd like to meet her.

Meet whom?

Whom do you think?

There's only one person he'd listen to.

Having a delicious meal or tea would be ideal,

but I don't want you to see me...

struggling to feed myself.

So I called you here instead.

Okay.

What do you think?

Is the painting nice?

Should I describe it to you?

Seeing it isn't everything.

This painting...

is already engraved in my heart.

I heard Tae Pyung...

bothers you quite a lot.

Seeing how you didn't answer me right away,

I guess you don't find him irritating.

But I was hoping that you would feel the opposite.

One good thing about being blind...

is that I don't have to read people's faces.

Even when I say something harsh,

I feel less sorry for saying that.

Did Tae Pyung tell you...

that...

he can't see your death?

Yes. I'm aware of that.

Then,

do you know why he can't see yours?

He has never broken the law before.

But he's breaking the law,

obsessing over your safety,

and becoming overprotective...

because...

you will die because of him.

So...

you must live.

No matter what happens,

don't die, but live.

For his sake,

do not...

die.

But live.

[VIU Ver] MBC E16 'The Game: Towards Zero' "Hyun Woo's Tracking Device" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

It's the necklace I'll have when I die.

Don't you want to know how you'll die?

No. So don't tell me...

how I'll die.

I can't see it.

Your death is the only one I can't see.

It makes me anxious.

He has never broken the law before.

But he's breaking the law,

obsessing over your safety,

and becoming overprotective...

because you will die because of him.

If I ask you to leave here with me,

will you come?

I think a place, free of bad people...

and where I won't see any deaths would be great.

Keep this for me,

so this necklace...

never makes its way back to me.

How is it?

There's nothing around it, so the view is unobstructed...

and it's quite breezy there.

Did you think...

you were the only one who could use tracking devices?

Since when did you know?

I'll apologize first.

I have...

underestimated you.

Since when did you know?

From the get-go.

From the moment when you came down to this basement,

I already knew.

(Stop)

At first,

I thought I was seeing things.

There could have been a bug on the camera lens.

But when I looked closely,

that bug...

was you.

So I thought about it the whole time on my way home.

"How did he find it?"

Even the police couldn't find the basement...

when they raided the place.

"How did he come into my house..."

"and find the basement?"

I wasn't sure, you know.

But I saw them.

The spy cams you installed.

That's right.

The thought of you watching me...

made me aggressive.

What are you doing?

I won't be deceived again.

I hate having hidden cameras.

How does it feel?

Personally, I feel disgusted.

Where are you right now?

Where are you now?

You.

Stay right there.

I will not let you live.

I'll make you regret...

that you ever provoked me.

You must be thirsty.

Try losing someone...

you deem the most precious.

You'll never find...

Seo Joon Young.

What do you really want?

What if what I want is Joon Young?

I'll make you regret...

that you ever provoked me.

Jo Hyun Woo!

(I said, I'll make you regret this.)

(I said, I'll make you regret this.)

Mr. Han.

Is Joon Young in?

No, she isn't.

Do you know where she is?

Tae Pyung.

What in the world are you up to?

I can't get a hold of her.

What do you mean?

Her phone is turned off.

I can't find her.

Hey, Su Hyun.

I was wondering if Joon Young was home.

Okay, I see.

Yes, give me a call too.

What did she say?

She isn't home yet.

Tae Pyung, go back home for now.

I'll call you once she contacts us.

Okay.

How does it feel?

Personally, I feel disgusted.

I'll make you regret...

that you ever provoked me.

I'm sure she's fine.

You'll hear from her very soon.

It's all my fault.

I shouldn't have installed that camera.

Did you install a spy cam at Do Kyung's place or something?

Yes.

I never wanted to deceive you...

or to have you find out like this.

Who do you think you are to take things this far?

(Korea Electrical Safety Corporation)

Who is it?

I'm from Korea Electrical Safety Corporation.

It felt like...

my breath was taken away.

It was that place.

The place where I will take...

my last breath.

I think I finally know...

why I'll die here...

and why I'll cry.

Because of love.

(The Game: Towards Zero)

Shut it!

Will you please just shut it?

I don't want to kill you, but you're making me want to.

I'm sick and tired of this awful connection!

Hyun Woo, you can change the prediction.

It depends on the choice you make.

Mr. Baek!

Mr. Baek. Mr. Baek!

You will die...

because of your prediction.
