Episode 7 Someone is hurt, please come quickly.

The blood is... Blood is...

He- he's dying.

At that moment...

I started to see his blood...

I've felt this since the excavation at Donggang, but haven't we met before somewhere?

At 9:33 AM last Monday, I saw you being held hostage by someone in Mapo.

In Mapo? Me?

Oh, I wasn't being held hostage. I was negotiating with the captor.

It looked like you were about to die.

About to...

So you just passd it by after seeing something like that? As a prosecutor?

I didn't have time then.

And I also don't have time now.

Still, let's at least introduce ourselves.

I'm Jeong Sa Bin, Prosecutor Kim Soo Hyeok.

I'll keep that in mind, Ms. Jeong Sa Bin.

Oh, that formaldehyde face...

Over there, put a lab coat on in the changing room and disinfect your hands.

- The autopsy room is inside. I'll be waiting. - Okay.

Who is it?

Oh, my heart...

- Who is it? - What?

Oh, he's my student from the university where I work. Today he's here as my daily trainee.

Student?

This is the mummy that became a skeleton overnight.

I wonder what he looked like when he was alive.

He's handsome according to his skeleton. About 184 cm in height?

His shoulders are as wide as a swimmer. I'm not sure what his facial features were like.

Do you want the backstory?

- Mr. Lee Bo So is— - Lee Bo So?

It's Mr. Donggang mummy's nickname.

Mr. Lee Bo So passed away while

going to the wedding hall with a ring for his bride.

Are you... okay?

Oh...

Professor Lee, isn't today's autopsy not open to the public?

Oh, I invited him. Donggang mummy is medically an exceptional case.

It's the remains of someone in an open case. How can an ordinary citizen be allowed in?

An intern has three chances to participate. We'll make sure to have you back next time.

I'm sorry.

Can I not watch from over there?

- Please leave. - I will.

Let's do this. Make this a woman who Byeon Seong Hoon killed 10 years ago.

Retain the thoracic and abdominal puncture, and say that the skull couldn't be restored because it was shattered to pieces.

Pardon? What are you...

It's an unidentified person's remains. We need to use it to our advantage.

We need to do it in order to put Byeon Seong Hoon in prison for life.

Professor Yoo, you can testify at his trial, right?

- Pardon? - It won't be possible.

Our team's goal is to use 3D to restore those who have been discovered and identify them.

The families of these remains still believe they're missing.

Weren't you already on the same boat as me?

- That is... - You want to manipulate the remains?

How can you insult the remains this way? Do you want to go to jail for causing them damage?

Jail?

What's the reason Lee Bo So met me after death? He wants me to reveal the unfair cause of death.

He wants me to take him to those whom he loved!

Lee Bo So or Jeo Bo So, those close to him would have given up waiting for him after 30 years.

Professor, please get a signed confidentiality agreement from this person.

- I'm a forensic scientist, not "this person". - Oh.

- Please make sure Ms. Jeong Sa Bin keeps it under wraps. - I said I'm a forensic scientist.

Whatever. Fine, Mr. Kim Soo Hyeok.

Please send over the results of the autopsy only to me, and get ready for the trial. I'll get going.

I guess I'm not worth listening to.

Well, fine. Please give me back Lee Bo So's ring and book.

They're articles left by the deceased.

If you haven't already, take this opportunity and read it once.

Seriously...

"Wuthering Heights"

Even the year of publication has been erased.

What is this?

Looks like a stamp.

Maybe a bookstore stamp?

"If all else perished, and he remained,

"I should still continue to be.

"Whatever our souls are made of,

"his and mine are the same."

"He's more myself than I am."

- What are you doing? - That's the question I want to ask you.

Wh- what? You threw this book away to me.

Take it then. How can you take back what you gave? Formaldehyde is so fickle.

Let me have that fountain pen. It's mine.

Oh...

Let me give you an advice.

From now on, even if someone is killing another, just keep walking.

Or you'll end up dying.

He has an odd way of showing concern.

That person... Seriously...

To Formaldehyde? Me?

That surprised me.

Sorry that you had to wait so long. Where are you?

I'm in front of the autopsy room right now.

But I think I dropped my fountain pen there.

Could you bring it for me?

Why is everyone asking about a fountain pen today?

Fountain pen... fountain pen.

Where is the fountain pen?

Here it is.

Let's do this. Make this a woman who Byeon Seong Hoon killed 10 years ago.

Retain the thoracic and abdominal puncture, and say that the skull couldn't be restored because it was shattered to pieces.

Pardon? What are you...

It's an unidentified person's remains. We need to use it to our advantage.

We need to do it in order to put Byeon Seong Hoon in prison for life.

Professor Yoo, you can testify at his trial, right?

Pureun Officetel Errand

Pureun Officetel

Hi.

I deposited the payment to your account. Thanks every time.

None of the ice melted. You're cute.

Gi-Hyeon, wait.

Do you want to have a drink with me?

I'll pay you three months' worth of wages in one shot.

I'm getting married in a week, and I'd like to have my single's party with you.

I'll decide on the place. Just two hours at the location.

Okay. Wait here.

I'm sorry. I know how busy you are.

You don't need to speak so formally to me now, Mother-in-Law.

I'll drop the honorifics when you and Sang Ah get married.

We aren't family just yet.

- 'll have a flat white - Yes, ma'am.

"The Secret of a Murderer"

The second edition is out already?

But do people need to know the murderer's secrets, too?

I'm sure people aren't born murderers.

A cobra is born, not raised.

If you don't cut the head off before it raises its head, it will carry poison.

You're aware that the book's main character is Gong Ji Cheol, don't you?

Gong Ji Cheol?

Pretending not to know...

Director Cheon Seok Tae will gnash his teeth over anything to do with Gong Ji Cheol.

You and Director Cheon are close, no?

Director Cheon is your target today, too.

I was always curious about the nature of your relationship with the director.

And? What kind of relationship do you think it is?

I'll wait until you tell me yourself.

You know something?

Director Cheon has a headache of a son.

And?

It's ironic.

The great Director Cheon who so easily sends murderers to the gallows

has a son who is a juvenile delinquent.

It's a peculiar twist.

Director Cheon's wife opted for donated sperm thinking her husband suffered from aspermia.

She must have received a bad seed.

Mother-in-law, the way you keep giving me all kinds of information,

you must want me to act on them, but don't try to control me.

I'm not a pushover, and I also lack couth.

I don't play games others have set out for me.

I'm aware... that you play with warrants.

But Prosecutor Kim...

you loathe people who are diseased in here.

Director Cheon's son is just that person.

The person that you loathe the most.

I saw him when he was young.

His name was... Of course.

Knowing Director Cheon's personality, I'm sure he gave his son a new identity.

Case of a female student from Somang Alternative School who was missing for 40 days.

Somang Alternative School, Kim Jeong Eun, 18-years-old.

Killed in a fire after being confined.

The mutilation murder case of a student from Onjin Elementary School.

Onjin Elementary School, Eom Yoon Hee, 12-years-old...

Addicted to games.

Kidnapped an elementary student with an accomplice and killed and mutilated her...

A peer group...

Video of sexual assault.

Murdered a female junior-high student and abandoned her corpse. Cheon Eun Woo, 15-years-old.

Dies from a fall, body disposed of in an abandoned building for three-days.

A boy who spent three days with a corpse...

[ Name: Cheon Eun Woo, Age: 15 ]

I think I've seen him somewhere...

You have to empty out all the bottles in this store tonight, okay?

That's the only way I'll pay you for the job.

You want to make money, huh?

With your looks, there's a place where you can earn 10 million won just by sitting there.

Money? I do this part-time work because I like it.

Why do you like running errands?

Since no one pays me any attention.

You're an oddity.

Can you just... listen to me?

- That's why I came. - Huh?

That's it for drinks.

Go ahead and tell me.

A young kid like you... You make me want to drink more. more.

A kid who holds a memory of a murder, Cheon Eun Woo.

[ Information on Suspect ]

What's the matter, Director?

This morning, a murder occurred at Pureun Officetel.

I'd like you to be in charge of it, Soo Hyeok.

I'm working on Byeon Seong Hoon's case right now—

There was a murderer on another level from Byeon Seong Hoon.

He died 30 years ago.

I got him a death penalty.

But, a copycat has appeared.

Are you talking about Gong Ji Cheol?

The rumors of you manipulating the remains on Byeon Seong Hoon's case spreading around prosecutor's office, I'll cover up.

In return, take the Pureun Officetel case.

I'll give you a detective who knows Gong Ji Cheol well.

[ No Trespassing ]

The name of the victim and the date of murder were written on a yellow umbrella.

That's Gong Ji Cheol's marker.

You can't touch the crime scene haphazardly, sir.

I saw this 32 years ago at the crime scene inspection.

It's the same as the one from 32 years ago.

That punk killed the same way.

Cha... Detective Cha Hyeong Bin?

Aren't you Detective Cha? Detective Cha!

But there's no way you could be.

Stop it.

You're not even a doppelgänger.

How can you look exactly the same?

Did you drink before coming to do the crime scene inspection?

Do you take preservatives?

Is it some kind of a bio... cryogenics or something?

Detective Cha!

I'm Prosecutor Kim Soo Hyeok!

Kim Soo Hyeok?

How can this be possible?

Even your voice is the same.

Start by interviewing the doorman and the neighbors next door and above and below.

How he takes off by himself is exactly the same, too.

Time of murder is around 1 AM.

There's a scar on the neck.

I think she got the tattoo to cover her scar from surgery.

Looking at the location, it looks like a thyroid operation.

Surgery scar...

Hey. Oh...

The victim worked at a hostess bar.

The lady who lives next-door said that

there was a medical school student who came by often running errands as part-time work.

If he does part-time work doing errands, we should be able to track his cell phone.

Please check the CCTV at the maintenance office first.

Going off on his own...

It's an old building, so the maintenance has been lax.

And there are only CCTVs at the parking lot entrance and in the elevator.

Anyone can come into the building without authorization, too.

There are only three people who were seen in the elevator around the time of the murder.

So other than them, whether there were 10 or 20 people who entered the building,

- you have no way of knowing? - You could say that.

Have you ever seen the part-time worker who used to go up to #1108?

He would have come almost every day.

I know him well.

I think he came here last night as well.

At what time?

It was probably around 1 AM.

My granddaughter leaves the library around then and always calls me.

Yeah, hi.

Be careful on your way home.

Okay.

Do you remember his face?

Of course, I do.

I remember. He's handsome.

He's also tall.

I'll find your mummy's face for you.

Dry bones, hear my words.

His face...

Wrap it in muscles, skin, covering it with flesh.

Put life into it, and it will come alive.

By digitally expanding the tiny bone pieces

I'm inputting them into the program. Let's see here.

Cheekbones,

and the shape of the jaw like this...

I'm going to shave it all down.

Okay, shave it down.

Are there the right eyes?

Did he have double eyelids?

That's it! This is it!

Was this person a celebrity?

A sculpture-like celebrity in his 20s who went missing in the 80s...

There was no such person! Do it again.

I know! This won't work!

We only have a piece of his skull!

You can sort of complete it if you have one side!

Among the 53 pieces, two-thirds are from the left!

Let's try again, huh?

Go find some more bone pieces. I can't do it until then!

And please let me sleep!

Seriously...

Don't you see the red light?

- Red light? - For three months, this traffic lights' green light isn't working.

You're a medical school professor. You don't have red-green color blindness, do you?

The only color I can't see is red.

I can't see blood or organs, so I'm fated to love only the remains.

It's turned off.

I have something to ask you.

What is it?

If a person's body decays underground, does the earth change colors?

What?

You go to the excavation sites often, so I was curious.

About that...

when the body decomposes underground, the surrounding soil does become darker.

In the case of bodies that have been slaughtered with bullets and empty shells, the soil turns yellowish-brown.

But why are you asking such a thing?

What about clothes?

Clothes don't disintegrate underground?

For example, materials like silk—

In the case of alkaline earth, silk disintegrates well.

And if the earth is acidic, cotton disintegrates well. Why?

Why?

I was curious.

Oh, right. When does the exhibition for Andong elder start?

I'm preparing for the exhibition tonight. Do you want me to invite you?

You look like you need an extra pair of hands.

I'll go in first. See you in class.

That's definitely soil from a hill with high acidity...

What am I doing?
