All language subtitles for Decision AAC5.1

There've been a lot of murders.

Could it be because of the nice weather recently?

The Chilgok-dong case.

We need to catch one of the two men.

But the director and the team are ignoring it.

What do we do?

It's up to us to handle the case.

- Us?
- Yes, us.

You and me.

Lee Ji-goo came here to request a return
of last year's advance?

Yes, exactly.

We usually don't allow that.

I told him that I'd ask his boss,
and then I texted you.

Good job.

They showed me the picture a long time ago,

I don't know how that happened all of a sudden.

Did he say he'd return?

Are you fine with leaving me alone on weekends
while you stay at home?

Does that mean "you and me"?

I need to get married too, dammit.

Did you fall asleep again?

Why'd you stop talking?

Keep talking.

Sleep a bit at night.
It's too dangerous.

You don't sleep enough because
you do extra work all day.

It's not the extra work that's
causing me to lose sleep.

It's because I can't sleep
that I'm doing extra work.

Why didn't you catch Lee Ji-goo
and Hong San-oh three years ago?

Do many people stay in the dorm
on weekends?

He's very busy with the
Mathematical Olympiad.

Why does a junior high student
work so hard?

He's a science major, like me.

I understand him very well.

Order the sushi that you usually like.

I don't want to eat any sushi.

I wanted to make something hot for you
while I'm here.

Can't you transfer to Ipo?

I want hot soup every day.

Our neighbor, Samantha.

She pretends to worry about me, but
really, she embarrasses me.

She told me six out of ten couples
have serious concerns about divorce.

She asked me if I was alright.

And how'd you respond?

I told her that the 55% of sexless couples
divorce each other, and asked her if she was alright.

DECISION TO LEAVE

He grabbed the rope and climbed to the summit of the mountain.

He fell from the top.
There were three collisions.

There, there, and there.

And landed here.

While wearing expensive headphones.

10:02, Monday.

We have to go up and check.

Isn't the helicopter late?

They say you can walk up there.
Why do we have to go up like this?

Because this is the path that the
deceased took, and we're the police.

Then are we gonna fall when we go down?
With three collisions?

Why do people come to places like this?

It should be illegal!

I'm gonna die...

Thanks.

The victim was named Ki Do-soo.

His initials were engraved on everything.

Possession.

He was drinking whiskey.

Don't get too close!

He retired after working at the
Office of Immigration and Foreign Affairs.

Throughout his life, he was a civilian interviewer.

It's open.

His daughter is pretty.

Do you think that it'll open if you try again?

Your father's body is over here.

I'm Song Seo-rae,
I'm Ki Do-soo's wife.

I'm Chinese, so my Korean
is a bit rusty.

You must be quite shocked.

I was worried when he didn't return from the mountain.

I was afraid that he'd finally died.

"Finally"...

You speak better Korean than I do.

I'd like to know the unlock pattern.

Her husband is dead, but she's not bothered.

What an amazing wife!

Go with her and tell her that a dead man
without witnesses requires an autopsy.

Explain to her in simple language.

I think my wife also wouldn't be so surprised.

She would say: "I knew it'd happen one day."

"That's why I didn't want to marry a cop."

"When a person dies for unknown
reasons in a place no one was able to see him,

it's necessary to open the corpse and examine it,
that's protocol."

"Actually, it's a rule."

If I explain it like that,
would that be simple enough?

Has to be simpler.

I told her to call the police.

I asked her if she'd still be able to laugh
once she'd seen the injuries.

But she started laughing again.

The husband was very tricky,
she's only wounded in places that are out of sight.

- Wait, hand me the mouse.
- Yes.

How did my husband die?

Should I explain in words,
or do you want to see photos?

Words.

Very well.

No, photos.

He was found with both eyes open.

Are you prepared to look at it?

A cerebral laceration was
the immediate cause of death.

It's to say... he died after breaking his head.

He should've bled a lot,
but the rain washed away everything.

It's a blessing.

He died the way he wanted to.

Isn't it fate?

Did you see her smile?

He was a very cleanly man.

I don't have anywhere else to go.

Let me die like this.

That's inhumane!

Am I really so shameful?

"Am I really so shameful?"

- That was fun, right?
- Yes.

We've been good for the past sixteen years
and eight months, right?

You're still keeping count?
Such a woman of science...

I heard sex is great for high blood pressure
and heart disease.

Recent studies say that
it's also good for cognitive function.

Incredible.

We should have sex every week.

We should have sex even when we hate each other.

How cruel.
"How cruel."

You were thinking about it, weren't you?

The Chilgok-dong case?

No.

It's the case of a young Chinese woman
whose husband died in the mountains.

The poor man.

Seo-rae works with different elderly patients
depending on the day of the week.

You're asking about Mondays, right?
Our patients can't express themselves clearly.

That's why our manager calls them one-by-one
at nine in the morning. Sit here.

I can check if
the nurse is there or not.

Song Seo-rae, Mondays...

It's the house of Lee Hae-dong.
I also called to confirm that day.

I'm sorry, but...

For people who can't express
their thoughts, can they still answer the phone?

The nurse answers the phone, of course!

How is Song Seo-rae in general?

Her patients often say this:
"Is she our nurse, or our niece?"

This nurse, she's very good at
doing injections.

She's the best we have. No doubt.

She's a terrifying woman.

She's already removed her ring.

For some, grief comes like a tsunami,

but for others, grief spreads
slowly like ink.

Let me know when you publish a poetry book.
I wanna buy a copy.

Do you know about the bitterness of life?

Yep, the bitterness of spending
every weekend with a beautiful wife.

After sitting for twelve hours a day...

It's tough work to
deal with illegal immigrants.

But the idea of climbing a mountain
completely changes my mind.

Let's go.

The DNA of another person has shown up
under Ki Do-soo's fingernails.

We have to collect oral epithelial
cells from his wife.

Oral epithelial cells?

How am I gonna explain that in simple words?

Thinking about that gives me a headache,

and suddenly my stomach's also starting to hurt...

Go get something to eat.

Don't buy anything expensive.

Alright...

We found the DNA of another person
under Ki Do-soo's nails.

You have to come to the police station
to give us a DNA sample.

I can't.

Why not?

I'm working.

Your husband's died but you still go to work?

My husband's death shouldn't have to interfere with
the lives of those I care for.

I see.

Tracking is my specialty.

I heard that you were raised by your grandma,
so I'm trusting you with this.

Do a great job.

What time did Song Seo-rae come on Monday?

SIRI, play me a song.
"Fog", by Jung Hoon Hee.

What a beautiful song, right?

I heard of it from Song Seo-rae.

I thought that you wouldn't be able to come. Thanks.

What do you like about Seo-rae? Her looks?

She peels apples very thinly.

I've been praying since Friday night.

Praying that Monday comes sooner.

That way, from time to time,
I feel that Monday does arrive faster.

SIRI, play me a song.
"Fog", by Jung Hoon Hee.

What a beautiful song, right?
I heard of it from Song Seo-rae.

We had a fight.

My husband wanted to bring me to the mountain,
but I hate mountains.

He hit you because you hate mountains?

I'll call for a female officer.

No problem.

I have to take a photo.

It's okay.

It's okay.

I scratched my skin.

Since he didn't understand my Korean.

And did he understand after that?

Finally.

What did your husband say after he saw you hurt yourself?

"How cruel."

Do-soo... tried to stop me... like this.

And that's why your DNA has
shown up under your husband's fingernails?

That's why?

Yes.

Do you really hate mountains that much?

Confucius said: "The wise take pleasure in rivers and lakes,
the virtuous in mountains."

I'm not a virtuous person.
I love the ocean.

Same here...

What?

These are the dates of your
emergency room visits, correct?

Did he also hit you on these occasions,
whenever you didn't want to go to the mountain?

He was the only Korean who shed tears
after hearing my story.

What kind of Korean?

The only one...

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have laughed.

It was your facial expression...

I laugh when I'm not confident
in speaking Korean.

I'm gonna order dinner.

How's it going? Everything alright?

Yes, thanks.

It was delicious.

Is that a deluxe sushi meal?
Can we get reimbursed for that?

Follow me, please.

We'll meet again.

This is waterproof.

"Waterproof" means that water can't come in,
even when wet.

Nurses use a lot of waterproof things.

Please return to that room
by 6:50 PM.

The women's restroom is on the right.

August 17, 2015.

On a cargo ship coming from
Pyeongtaek Port, the Coast Guard

found Chinese illegal immigrants
entering the country.

The other 27 were deported,
only you remained.

Because I'm not like the others.

My maternal grandfather was Gae Bong-seok
of the Manchurian Korean Liberation Army.

What?

Thanks to Ki Do-soo, he obtained
the Order of Merit for National Foundation.

It's me.

Okay, I'll be there in ten minutes.

- Lee Ji-goo showed up at an internet café.
- Alright.

Release Song Seo-rae.

Look into Gae Bong-seok, who was awarded
the Order of Merit for National Foundation.

Very well.

Even if I don't shoot it,
I feel a lot better bringing it.

Lee Ji-goo!

- Gae Bong-seok.
- Lee Ji-goo!

In mid-1930s Nanmanju, he was an active participant
in the armed war against Japan.

As lieutenant of the Korean Liberation Army,

he was involved in more than 200 military
operations, big and small.

He received the nickname 'The Wildcat
of South Manchuria'.

During a surprise attack against
Japanese troops in Yanbian, China,

he bit the neck of the commander and decapitated him.
The incident transformed him into a legend.

Lee Ji-goo!

You're killing me.

Drop the knife.

Drop it!

I told you to drop it.

Drop it!

Why is it so dark in here?

What do you want?

Get up.

Why'd you fall?

Get out.

It wasn't you, right?

I fought with you and you don't seem like you can kill anyone.

San-oh killed him, right?

You won't be able to catch San-oh.

Why not?

Because his memories are so precious.

Rather than being caught and going to jail,
he'll choose to kill a cop and then himself.

He's suicidal.

Didn't I tell you to not get violent?

A policeman has been injured, an officer!

I injured myself while I was beating him!

What are you even doing with a gun?

You were out of breath and couldn't even run.

Also, the suspect needs to speak for himself.

Why are you intimidating him?

You're listening too closely to suspects.

Take Song Seo-rae, for example.

The suspect should've been summoned a while ago,
and the arrest warrant would've been issued by now.

Officer Mi-ji grabbed the footage from a surveillance camera.

Song Seo-rae was filmed entering and
leaving the house of her patient.

The alibi has been confirmed.

Hello, Mi-ji.

Didn't you say that Hong San-oh is involved
with several women?

Type up a list.

Rotation time, notable numbers,

current addresses, track everything.

Why would such a beautiful woman marry
an old man to live in Korea?

So just because she's young, pretty, and foreign,
she's suspicious?

At least you admit she's pretty.

That's unfair treatment.

If someone wasn't a pretty foreign woman,

if they were just a regular Korean guy,
you would've immediately ordered to trail him.

You're not interested in tracking her?

And harassing.

Damn it.

Didn't put the ice cream in the fridge.

And sleeps with the TV on
in an uncomfortable position.

Good morning.

Good morning!

Why'd you suddenly say "Good morning"?
I'm confused.

Because I slept well.

I slept well.

You're giving me a crow again because I fed you?

Forget it.

If you want to give me a gift, bring me
the heart of that kind detective.

That's what I want.

Again, ice cream for dinner.

You shouldn't smoke after a meal...

She's crying... finally.

Good mo-

Good morning.

The Geumjeongsan mountain case.

Are you still following it?

Get it over with quickly and focus on
more important cases to improve your reputation.

Like the Chilgok-dong case!

How frustrating!

I heard the Geumjeongsan case
is about to be closed.

What is this Chinese document?

The investigation's still open.

There's no evidence to suspect a murder took place.

Now I want to catch the murderer
of the Chilgok-dong case.

Song Seo-rae is a murder suspect.
In China, the minimum sentence is life imprisonment.

I translated and sent you it.

Here.

Well...

I know about a few of Hong San-oh's girlfriends.

Go see them within two days and send me the report.

That's...

Hey...

Listen. She killed her mother!

It's cold, what are you doing outside?

Thinking about the misty sea, something like that?

Towards Busan, there's the ocean...

Towards Ipo, there's the ocean...

I'm a man of the sea!

I believe it! But your hometown
is in an inland city.

I wanna smoke.

You have to get rid of that craving
before it's too late.

I'm going to look for some dried bellflower.

You were chewing on it
after quitting smoking.

Hey, Lee Ju-rim.

It's me.

Do you still have any dried bellflower?

My husband wants to smoke again.

- WHAT DO YOU THINK.
- COME TO MY HOUSE.
Now you give me orders?

How can you order around a policeman?

Anyway, you're always here, aren't you?

They say you killed your mother.

Homi mountain.

That's the mountain of your grandfather's
village in Korea.

That mountain is your property.
Go there.

Go to that mountain.

But kill me first.

Right now I'm taking care of you professionally,
since I just became a nurse.

Mom.

Since I'm a nurse,

now I can take your life professionally.

So I sent her off
the way she wanted me to.

Fentanyl capsules. Just four.
I have some for myself, too.

Where did you put it? The fentanyl.

If you're curious, open it.

Ki Do-soo committed suicide.

[I KNOW THAT YOU WERE CLOSE TO THE CHINESE AND RUSSIANS, AND YOU TOOK THEIR MONEY...]
[YOU FABRICATED DOCUMENTS TO NATURALIZE UNQUALIFIED PEOPLE...]
[YOU THREATENED THEM WITH DEPORTATION...]
[IF YOU DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS LETTER, YOU WILL BE REPORTED TO THE POLICE]

Okay.

Ki Do-soo looked at people's faces
and stamped their passports.

He did this for more than twenty years.

Without expression.

Without friends.

Why would you marry this sort of man...

I was adrift in the sea for ten days,
locked at the bottom of a fishing boat.

My face was like a skeleton's.

I was drenched in shit and piss.

I was rocking back-and-forth like a crazy woman.

That man saw me,

smelled me,

and listened to my story.

And whose house do you visit every night?
Does your wife know?

"I can't live with the shame of
being complicit with a corrupt government."

"No matter what,"

"I'll prove my innocence in the near future,
and I'm going to restore my reputation. Ki Do-soo."

It looks like a suicide note, you
should have notified the police.

But he was my boss at the time, so that's why I didn't...
I'm really sorry.

Suicide?

You're sure?

You didn't see the suicide note?

Brother, you're no different from any other cop!

This man became the youngest police
commissioner in history,

if he's not different from the other police,
I'm willing to dance.

Of course, the evidence that she killed her mother
isn't evidence that she also killed her husband.

But do you remember what you told me?

"Killing is like smoking."

"It's only difficult the first time."

Hello?

I'm sorry.

Soo-wan.

Let's go.

We're going!

- Brother.
- Yes, stand up.

What's going on?

Let's go.

Our boss...

He looks a bit drained, but he's actually
a pretty scary guy.

I'll catch you next time.

Let's go. Let's go.

See you later, when you kill
your next husband.

Brother, take the bag.

It's okay. It's okay. Let's go.

Go! Go! Go!

I worded that simply enough, didn't I?

I did everything possible just to come
to Busan because I respect you.

Enough.

- I have just one question for you.
- Don't do this...

Why'd you buy her sushi?

Bastard!

Your feet...

Case closed.

You're no longer a suspect.

Happy?

Excuse me?

Why would I be happy?

Yes, I'm happy.

Why?

Well...

We're no longer...

Now we don't have to...

Tell me.

What?

Have you eaten dinner yet?

Oh? Yeah.

Ice cream?

This is the only Chinese dish that I can cook.

I do all sorts of things at night.

Due to my insomnia.

Oh, "insomnia" means being unable to sleep.

Those are the unresolved cases.

I don't know when to remove them, so I've left them there.

An "unresolved case"...
is a case that still hasn't been solved.

"Case with no resolution".

Do ants eat people?

Ah, that...

First, the flies come.

They appear within ten minutes,
whether late or early.

After eating the blood and secretions,

they lay eggs in every wound on the body.

And when the maggots appear, the ants
gather to eat the maggots.

Then come the cockroaches,
then the wasps.

That's how they start eating humans.

So you consider this Chinese food?

It tastes great.

So that's why you can't sleep.
Because the gory photos are always moaning.

This man was discovered in the mountains
a month after his death.

The axe that split his head
was at his side.

Hong San-oh.

He's the real murderer of the
Gilgok-dong case, but I can't find him.

I look at these photos whenever I can.

Ever since I started investigating his ex-girlfriend,

I've felt closer to him.

Has he been to prison?

Yes, but only for a month.

He thought that she was getting close to another man,
so San-oh killed that man.

So he's more afraid of prison than death?

Yes.

- Is anyone here?
- He killed him knowing that he'd go to prison.

Because she's the woman that
he loves to death.

Oh Ga-in?

He ran away!

Brother!

The bullets have already been loaded.

But she lives far away.

She opened a beauty salon in Gyeonggi-do.

Then she got married.

Here in Korea,

do you stop liking someone
once they get married?

Hong San-oh!

Hong San-oh!

You!

You didn't kill him for money, right?

Right?

I know everything.

When you were in prison,

that man touched Oh Ga-in, didn't he?

But actually, there's also
a woman I'm fond of.

But her husband beat her.

I would've liked to kill that man.

Why do woman always
sleep with such trash?

Well, I'm also trash.

Good point!

But you're not trash!

You love Ga-in.

You've done everything for her!

You...

Please tell this to Ga-in.

"Though I've suffered for you,

my life wasn't empty, thanks to you."

Tell her that.

Hong San-oh, don't do this!

Looks like you won't have to bother with telling her.

You good?

You're already driving around after that incident?
What kind of job do you think you have?

Do you want me to go to Busan?

No, there's no need.

Anyway, whenever you're depressed, I...

I'm not depressed.

Really?

I need to go to the bathroom.

That's fine, go.

Bye.

After killing her husband,

it was confirmed that they lived together.

Who is it?

You?

I told you that you didn't have to come...

What's the matter?

I wanna put you to sleep.

You think that I'm a lonely old man?

Trying to make sure my arms and shoulders are fine?

What are you doing here?

Didn't you say that you'd get rid of everything
after finishing a case?

Ah, I'll also burn the photo of my husband.

That's too dark.

But still, you're pretty.

What did you say about me?

Try to say it in Chinese.

You're pretty.

Your silhouette...

Well, you can keep that one.

I'm keeping this one too. And this one.

...and this one.

This is better, right?

Now can you sleep well?

Who knows.

I've got a technique.

A technique?

A technique developed by the
U.S. Navy.

I was in the Navy.

What technique has the
U.S. Navy developed?

Close your eyes.

Do you really want my heart?

- Your heart?
- What are you gonna do with it?

I was referring to your feelings, not the heart itself.

Ah...

Okay, let's start.

Listen closely to the sound of my breathing.

Synchronize your breathing with mine.

Now you see the ocean, you see water.

You're a jellyfish.

You don't have eyes, or a nose.

Or thoughts.

Or joy, or pain.

Absolutely no emotions.

The water's guiding you.

It pushes you toward me, and away
from everything that's happened today.

Korean women have soft hands, right?

Don't nurses use gloves?

The calluses on your hands are...

I've felt relieved from
the very start.

Since the policeman in charge of me has "class".

Are you saying that being a cop is classy?

How about as a Korean man?
Or a man in general?

As a modern man.

Really, what era did you come from?

The Tang Dynasty?

Why don't you ask me why
I like you?

If you hear my answer, are you
afraid that you'll always think about it?

From the beginning, I've known that
you and I were similar.

From the moment you told me
you wanted to see that photo of your husband.

Instead of words.

One day I want to deal with my
fear of blood.

Half of the corpses we find
have their eyes open.

I make a promise to catch the person that
their eyes saw last.

What scares me the most is a crime scene
with lots of blood, because of the smell.

Is that why you always bring
hand cream with you?

Do you have any more for me?

Seo-rae, what are you afraid of?

- You're a nurse, so it can't be blood.
- Heights.

Lots of pockets...

Twelve in the jacket and six on my pants.

Made to order in the shop
that I always go to.

I helped them with some cases
and they've given me a discount.

Whenever a new case comes up, I have to go immediately,
so I also use it on my days off.

Even if it's a day off, that doesn't mean
people stop killing each other, right?

Don't misunderstand me,
I don't always wear the same clothes.

I have lots of the same. I...

I'm a cleanly person.

She's carefully arranging books and notebooks
side-by-side.

Doesn't matter how many hours pass by, she's always writing.

Often glances at her phone while writing.

Or maybe she's looking up
translations in the dictionary.

She's watching dramas again.

Talking to herself while watching the TV.

Do you speak in an old-fashioned way
because you watch historical dramas?

Again, ice cream for dinner.

You shouldn't smoke after a meal...

She's crying... finally.

Shit.

I know that's a swear word.

In front of Buddha, that's really...

You'll delete the recordings since
the case has closed, right?

Yes.

That's the day your mother died, isn't it?

I remember the numbers from many different cases,

it's been useful in lots of situations
during an investigation.

But now that the case has been closed,

I intend to forget all these numbers.

"The streets full of fog..."

How do you know this old song?

Everyone in the neighborhood knows it.

It's a popular song here.

Even Twin Flames sang it.

Really?

You've been smoking.

You have to stop!

Cigarettes!

Ah Soo-wan, that bastard...

He's been smoking too much.

I'm sure I have some sort of lung disease by now.

ARE YOU ASLEEP?

- I HAD TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL, MY TUESDAY
PATIENT HAS GOTTEN HERSELF VERY SICK. - AH...

SHE SAID SHE WANTED TO SEE ME, BUT WHEN I ARRIVED
SHE WAS PASSED OUT, AND NOW I'M WAITING.

THAT'S A SHAME. IN ANY CASE,
HOW IS YOUR MONDAY PATIENT?

- I'M WORRIED ABOUT HER.
- DO YOU WANT ME TO GO IN PLACE OF YOU?

REALLY?

YES, A LIVING GRANDMA IS MORE IMPORTANT
THAN A DYING, INSOMNIAC DETECTIVE.

IF IT'S NOT TOO MUCH TROUBLE, THEN...

- THEN I-
- MY COMPANY'S GOING TO CALL ME AT NINE IN THE MORNING.

- THEN AT NINE, I'M GOING TO-
- I'LL TELL THEM THAT I'LL SEND SOMEONE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

- THEN-
- BUT YOU HAVE TO READ TO HER FROM MY GREEN NOTEBOOK.

- THEN-
- SHE LIKES IT A LOT.^^

OKAY.

If you go 250 miles east,
you'll see Oil Peak.

The peak of this mountain is
hidden in the depths.

Only those who reach the summit
can see it.

This man's hand is...

...softer than Seo-rae's.

Seo-rae has calluses on her hands.

Those showed up recently.

Originally, her palm
was like her lips.

SIRI, play me a song.

Whose song? "Fog",
I don't remember who sang it.

My phone's been throwing a tantrum lately!

- Song Seo-rae has the same phone.
- Of course, we bought it together.

You shouldn't have so many apps open.

On Monday, Seo-rae came to your house, right?

She always comes on Mondays.

- You both went somewhere?
- I've been stuck in this house for the past ten years.

Grandma, what day of the week is it?

Where's this "grandma" you're talking about, brother?

I don't really keep track of the days of the week.

My sister, Hae-dong, you're really smart, so...

Let's suppose...

...Seo-rae came here today.

Then it's Monday!

After starting my timer the moment that
Song Seo-rae was caught on surveillance camera...

I began my excursion.

It takes about seven minutes to swap the phones and leave.

If she left through the back window,
there's an alley with no surveillance cameras.

There are two routes.

One easy and one difficult, however it'll
take the same amount of time to reach the summit.

Normally, I'd take the difficult route,

but today, for the newbies,

I'm going to choose the easy route.

Song Seo-rae must have also
taken the easy route.

Because she didn't want to be seen by her husband.

Hey boss, I'm about to
go in for work. Yes, I'm fine. Yes.

9:00 AM. Confirmation call from her
company's office.

There's no need to feel ashamed
when slipping at a place like this.

This peak was originally known
as Oil Peak.

It's slippery like oil,
and that's why they called it that.

Isn't that a lovely sight?

If you start listening to Mahler's Symphony No. 5,
you'll arrive at the summit by the end of the fourth movement.

Sit at the summit, listen to the fifth
movement, then descend the mountain.

It's perfect.

The perfect way to kill someone.

Seong Seo-rae had to have hidden herself here,
then reached the top

before the end of the fifth movement
of Mahler's Symphony No. 5.

During the final measure of the fourth movement
you'll run into some difficulties.

In any case, you'll be aware of it after
having experienced it personally.

If you compare this with the difficult route
that I go normally, this is a piece of cake.

It's like eating sushi with sauce.

Climbing while holding onto the ladder...

you'll barely notice that you're already at the top.

Korean women have soft hands.

10:00 AM.

We're at the summit of my
favorite mountain, Geumjeongsan.

The harsh world is far away.

Even if I died here, it wouldn't be so bad.

You told me you have a fear of heights.

Why didn't you report him?
Even when he was hitting you,

why didn't you report that to the police?

Why don't you trust the police?

He told me he'd deport me to China.

Is that when you sent
threatening letters to your husband?

It doesn't matter when I sent them.

Just that their contents are true.

You wrote the letter that Ki Do-soo
sent to the immigration office?

But the address and the name on
the envelope are written in his own handwriting.

How did you do it?

I just edited the defense that my husband wrote.

I changed it to appear like
a suicide note.

My partner wasn't violent with you, then?

A police officer going to
a woman's house after drinking,

that's not violence?

To burn my photos...

and to delete my recordings,

that must've been too easy for you.

You knew that after pretending to like me,
I'd take care of everything for you.

Don't speak about us like that...

Us?

What do we have between each other?

The fact that I wander outside
your house every night?

The fact that I can sleep
after listening to your breathing?

Hugging you and whispering in your ear
about how happy I am?

You told me that I had "class".

Do you know where that comes from?

Confidence.

I used to be a very confident police officer.

But...

Because of this obsession I have for a woman...

...I screwed up the investigation.

I...

I'm collapsing.

I've replaced that woman's phone.
With the same model.

She didn't notice at all.

Throw this phone into the ocean.

Retire it to the depths of the sea,
and don't let anyone find it.

["COLLAPSING"]

[1. BREAKING AND FALLING APART.]
[Example: "At risk of collapse." ]

13 MONTHS LATER

Feeling incapable of catching criminals,
and other similar stressors...

That's what elicited your insomnia.

What I can suggest for now is that you

try to sunbathe for thirty minutes before lunch.

You don't have to take your clothes off, but
try to keep your eyes open.

Doctor, you just opened up
this office in Ipo, didn't you?

It's just that in the mornings, it's never sunny
due to the fog.

But you still have hot water in Ipo, right?

Yes.

Then I recommend taking a foot bath
before going to bed.

I'm also prescribing you dopamine.

Try and take it.

If that doesn't work,

I have a machine here that can help
you breathe while asleep.

Oh, this...

I heard that pomegranates have
the ability to help with amenorrhea.

Wouldn't it be more convenient to just
not have your period?

Yes, but...

I've been eating at home every day
since you've returned,

and eating these pomegranates
makes me feel a lot healthier.

What made you become so drained?

What do you mean "drained"?
You think I'm a pomegranate?

Director Lee was shocked when he saw your photo.

He asked me how such
a handsome man ended up like that.

56% of middle-aged men
are at high risk of depression.

Director Lee knows a guy who drank
turtle jelly to particularly good effect.

It raised his testosterone levels.

I'm glad that
you've returned to Ipo.

I'm also pretty happy.

You're only happy when
surrounded by murderers and violence.

Where's your husband?

He's gone, he left me behind!

Bastard!

Then what's all this?

If your husband left,
how'd you buy yourself all of this?

You assholes buy, and buy, and buy,
living in luxury,

meanwhile my mother cries
every day,

telling me she wants to die!

What do the doctors say?

They told me she won't last another month.

If my mother dies, I'm
gonna kill that son of a bitch-

I told you already, that I'd put aside ten minutes for you.

For your mother's sake.

Does your mother know that you
beat women?

Does she know what they call you?

If my mother dies,

I'll store her in a freezer,

and only after I kill your husband
will I let her funeral take place.

It was tough raising them...

Don't worry!

Our boss is the youngest
police commissioner in Korea.

The best in Busan!

Boss!

They stole fifty-eight turtles.

- Any estimate on the amount of damage?
- Three million won for each one.

Oh my, how come they're so expensive?

I heard their jelly works miracles
on middle-aged men with depression.

No way, boss!

And how do you even know something like that?

Go outside and tell them to turn off the lights.

Yes, sir!

You're so stupid.

I told you to stay away.

This was the only way I could see you,
"what else was I supposed to do?"

Honey, we have to pack our things.

You changed your number again.

Hurry, Cheol-seong's
found out where you are.

And next week, can you
help me meet with some Chinese people?

I can't seem to negotiate with them.

It's a headache.

Wait, I'm getting a text...

Ah... He already met you...

With your face looking like that, I doubt
you can see anyone at the moment.

Love you.

Everything's fine between us, right?

Forget it.
Let's move, first.

Yeah, we gotta move, Cheol-seong
found you after all.

Where do you want to go?

Is this a real fire, or a false alarm?

If it's a false alarm,
no one's going to evacuate next time.

People say that you came here
because you're depressed.

From being unable to stop a criminal
from committing suicide.

But now you've recovered...

Do I really look depressed?

It's the insomnia. The insomnia.

He's wearing leather shoes now?

If you're not smoking, why don't you go inside?

Did you want to keep me company?

This remote mountain town
is really quiet.

If you want to smoke, do it outside!

Love you.

Why are you here?

I moved here.

Why?

There's nothing to see in this town.

I like the fog.

I'm Song Seo-rae.

I'm Chinese, I don't speak Korean too well.

Honey, this is that detective.
The one who suspected me of murder.

Ah! I'm her new husband!

I'm Im Ho-shin.

My name is Jang Hae-joon.

What are you guys doing in Ipo?

I just touched some fish, that's why.

What brings you to Ipo?

I also moved.

My wife works here.

My name is Ahn Jung-an.

You guys moved here for the fog, but
people often leave Ipo because of it.

Just wait 'til you see
how bad the mold can get here.

Dear...

The truth is that we're here
because of the nuclear energy plant.

Excuse me?

Why?

- "Red Emergency"?
- Hm.

It's a drama where Hu Bing shows up
to resolve a nuclear radiation leak.

Chinese women travel great distances just
to see the filming location.

So you're a tour guide, right?

They actually are making money from
that, however...

I shouldn't say this, but...

A drama that centers around
a fake nuclear crisis...

...kind of gives us a headache.

She works at the nuclear plant.

So she's sensitive to that sort of thing.

In reality, nuclear energy
is very safe.

You were on a program
about the stock market, no?

You saw it?

I'm a stock analyst.

But I'm not an "anal-yst"
who likes anal...

You look a lot younger in person
than on TV.

Swimming in the morning is the secret
to staying young.

And you can call me any time
if you want to know the secret to investing.

Please, give me a business card, too.

Your business card is beautiful.

Here, I won't have to run.

She's pretty.

Yeah, her green dress was beautiful.

Wasn't it blue?

Whatever the color.

A widowed Chinese woman...

I've heard of that case.

I remember hearing of a Chinese woman who
become a widow after her husband's suicide.

Yeah, there was a case like that.

In the end, was anyone found responsible?

No.

I suspected the wrong person.

Didn't you suspect that woman, too?

Yes, but it turned out that it was a suicide.

Do you always suspect the wrong people?

That's why people hate us.

"Us"?

The police.

[DETECTIVE YEO YEON-SOO]
Honey, answer the phone for me.

My hands are covered in blood.

Hello?

Dear!

Congratulations!

There's been a murder.

Estimated time of death, 11:00.

He was stabbed seventeen times.

Thirteen times in the stomach and chest,
four times in the back.

He was stabbed in the back
while running away, don't you think?

Stabbed thirteen times
and still able to run?

And if he was running, why
is the body in that position?

It was his wife that discovered him.
Do you want to talk to her?

The suspect is left-handed.

Take notes.

Is this why you came back to Ipo?

Is this a joke to you?

Am I really so shameful?

Song Seo-rae, listen closely.

This time, your alibi must be
as indestructible as stone.

Do you think his wife killed him?

Why?

Because there aren't any signs of trespassing,
stolen objects, or bribery?

Or because it was a sudden frontal stabbing,
do you think it was a revenge killing?

Or because the wife isn't surprised or sad?

That varies from person to person. For some,
grief comes like a tsunami, but...

Why do you always ask me questions?

Why don't I ever see you speaking like this
with others?

I met her in Busan last year as part of a case.

- It was because her husband was murdered.
- She killed him?

I was wondering if she was capable of murder...

That case was considered a suicide,
but now another husband of hers has died.

But she's right-handed.

Well, think about the motive
for which he was murdered!

They want me to go down to the police station.

Could I grab my bag?

So you went for a walk.

You don't have a phone, or else
we could have confirmed the route.

The alibi isn't easy to verify.

That's true.

You're not worried?

Did your husband have enemies?

I've heard that he collected
and invested a lot of money.

He recently lost a large sum.

He was losing money while living
in a luxury apartment?

You have to spend money so that you can
show others how to make money.

Why would you marry this sort of man?

Because I'd made a decision to leave
for another man.

Why did you come to Ipo?

For no particular reason.

And if there was one, it was to escape from a creditor.

A husband chosen, but not for love.

The husband receives threats.

And then he dies.

Just like last year.

What?

My last husband committed suicide, but
this time my husband's been murdered.

Okay...

Both husbands...

In the same jurisdiction
of the judicial police,

but also, far from each other,

one a suicide, and the other a murder.

Anyone would be shocked
hearing this.

Just a big coincidence, right?

What would you say if you heard this?

"What a pitiful woman..."

That's not the dress. It was a blue dress.

Without a jacket.

Blue?

Not green?

Thanks.

It's blue.

But what was she doing?

Tell me the truth.

Why did you move here?

Why do you keep asking?

Does it matter why I'm here?

Why is it so important?

This was the only way I could see you,
what else was I supposed to do?

What were you wearing while
walking along Haenyeo Pier?

This.

That's a lie.

Where is that lime-green dress?

Sometimes it looks blue and sometimes it looks green.

With shiny buttons.

Were you looking closely at it?

I've looked everywhere...

Sorry, sorry.

You're here!

Have you seen this?

Wow, even murders are happening here.

I'm tired! What are we doing tonight?

I came back from my walk the other day.

The smell of blood was very pungent.

Then I remembered you.

You were definitely going to see
the crime scene.

And you'd definitely be afraid of the blood.

Song Seo-rae.

You've just admitted to destroying
crucial evidence in this murder.

As a suspect of the murder of Im Ho-shin,
you are under arrest.

I didn't like how the police
were following my husband.

We have this smartwatch.

Go extract the audio recordings.

They're probably in Chinese.

Ask someone to translate it.

- Are you a man?
- No.

Have you ever killed someone?

Yes.

Did you kill your husband, Im Ho-shin?

No.

Boss.

What are you doing here?

It's the recording from the smartwatch.

We confirmed the owners of the cars
around the resort before and after the crime.

We ran into one of the people
scammed by Im Ho-shin.

He's the head of a violent organization.

His name is Sa Cheol-seong.
I didn't know the name "Sa" existed.

Wait!

Get off me!

You good? What are you doing?

Speak to me.

Speak to me!

Mom!

He's left-handed.

Two hundred seventy million won.

That's the value of the food stall my
mother's run for the past ten years.

It was difficult to open a Chinese restaurant,
working eighteen hours a day to make a living!

I entrusted all that money to Im Ho-shin!

Initially, I only put ten million won.

The money was disbursed on time,

so I was satisfied and
put all my faith into it!

But then he took a lot of money from people,

stayed at the top hotels in the country,

always gambling and buying purses
and clothes for his wife.

That son of a bitch was an embezzler!

Ten billion won.

My mother had severe diabetes.

But she had a nervous attack when
she found out that we were being cheated.

She had another kidney issue,

and because she didn't receive the proper treatment,
they had to amputate all of her toes!

Do you know why my nickname is "Iron"?

Because I'm great at slapping
people with this iron slap.

That's why my name is Iron.

It's much easier to hit someone
with my palm than with my fist.

That's why I keep slapping!

However, someone like you,

if you didn't kill Im Ho-shin,
how would you live with yourself?

Do you know Song Seo-rae?

Did she ask you to kill him?

Listen...

I'm not the kind of person that
does what others ask me to.

Song Seo-rae was very useful to me.

But she wasn't aware...

Of why they couldn't escape from me,
no matter how much they ran.

I installed a tracking app
on her phone.

Wait, what's that?

Why's he sitting like that?

How scary!

Hey, asshole.

Do you want me to hit you?

Are you crazy?

Iron...

Boss, aren't you happy?

And why would I be happy?

The first murder case in Ipo
has been solved!

Where's the best place to eat?

Solved? Who said it was solved?

We found the culprit, so
Song Seo-rae can go back home.

Well that's what I think...

A turtle thief is escaping by motorcycle
toward the town hall.

We have a turtle thief escaping
by motorcycle toward the town hall.

Careful with the turtles!

Careful!

Let's go.

Get up!

The biggest ones first!

They're vicious, careful with your fingers!

For helping people recover
their stolen goods...

My husband and the husband of a woman I know.

Two missed calls
in the middle of the night.

Was it a mistake?

Calling a married woman you know
for the first time?

I would have let it go,

had the man not been
murdered afterward.

Honey...

Did you kill him?

Did you work together to kill him?

Is your finger fine?

That's the number of
Im Ho-shin's illegal cellphone.

Track his last location before death.

Yes.

- Boss.
- Yes.

While the owner of the phone
was dead at home,

why was his phone
turned on and off here?

Move your arm and lift your hand
a bit more.

Ow, my arm hurts!

Higher!

He dropped the phone. Find a diver
to begin searching for it.

Is it deep there?

Wake up!

We got the murderer!
We even have evidence and a confession.

Please, enough of this obsession with that woman.

Don't you feel bad for her?

He's wearing leather shoes now?

And his beard grew.

The man that shaves
every morning and afternoon...

Has he become lazy?

Why does he seem so sluggish?

Maybe because he misses me?

[ (LAUGH) ]

When he made that strange Chinese dish,
I smoked at his side the whole time.

But he normally can't stand the smell of smoke.

Everyone speaks of love, but...

I remember the nights when he was spying on me.

A trustworthy man who doesn't even sleep.

It felt like he was there
to protect me.

He's here.

I'm sure he'll ask me if that's why I came to Ipo.

What should I do?

Why the hell am I crying?

Should I give you the answer?

No.

I'm sure that...

...you already know why.

Maybe he won't even ask.

Is this why you came back to Ipo?

Hello.

What's on that phone?
Answer me.

Open the door now!

I'm not there.

Where are you?

Homi mountain.

What was it on Im Ho-shin's phone
that made you want to throw it into the ocean?

Don't fall asleep. Wait a bit more.

Because there's no fog here.

Why did Im Ho-shin call my wife?

My mother, who used to love mountains,
always told me something.

"Whenever you're sad,
go to that mountain in Korea."

Tell me the truth.

You know why Im Ho-shin
wanted to talk to my wife, correct?

Although the State took it from us
as a result of the trial,

Homi mountain is still my mountain,
at least in my heart.

Mom, grandpa,

I've brought a trustworthy man.

Scatter the ashes, please.
I have a fear of heights.

Why did I marry those men?

Because ideal men like you
wouldn't marry me.

Because just by talking face-to-face with me,
there'd be another murder.

Is it really the time for jokes?

Since leaving me behind, you still can't sleep, right?

Even if you force yourself to close your eyes,
you'll always see me.

Is that not true?

When we met
at the market the other day,

did you suddenly feel that
you were alive again?

Enough!

Now my hands are also soft, no?

During the last four hundred and two days, you...

You...

No matter what, the fact that I'm a policeman
and you're a suspect will not change.

You know what "suspect" means, right?

Someone suspected by the police.

I like that.

Treat me comfortably.

Like you always have.

The same way that you treat
other suspects.

Aren't you curious as to why I like you?

Or you're simply not interested?

You...

Your body... is very stiff!

Few people are so stiff
unless they're tensing up.

With that, I've said enough about you.

What about the four fentanyl capsules?

I've carried those ashes from place to place
for a long time.

They're too heavy.

Goodbye, grandpa.

Goodbye, mom.

Didn't I tell you to throw that away
so that no one would find it?

Use this to reopen the investigation.
So we can go back to those days before the "collapse".

Maybe I came to Ipo to become
one of your unresolved cases again.

- Director Lee!
- Yes!

This is your first time seeing each other, right?

Director Lee divorced recently.

I'm Lee Jun, I've heard much about you.

It's not snowing here?

What?

Okay, so what about that...?

About what?

"We should have sex even when we hate each other."

Move aside, please.

Can you sleep?

I went to the hospital for a check-up.

I woke up forty-seven times in one hour.

Can you believe it?

I wish I could give you a piece of my sleep.

Like a battery.

They say that it's because I breathe through my mouth.

I have to use a machine that helps
me breathe through my nose while I'm asleep.

Machines like that exist.

It's strange.

Obviously, I breathe through my nose
while I'm awake.

But that doesn't mean that
I snore when I sleep.

I know.

Get some sun, and vitamin D.

It's not bad, right?

It's been thirty minutes.

I talked with some local fishermen
about the phone.

I told them to let us know if they find it.

Will it be possible to recover the data?

I CALLED THE WIFE OF YOUR BELOVED DETECTIVE
SO SHE COULD LISTEN TO THAT SCANDALOUS RECORDING, BUT
SHE DIDN'T RESPOND. SHE'LL ANSWER IN THE MORNING, RIGHT?

THE NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE CHINESE ARE GOING WELL,
DO YOU REALLY WANT TO RUIN EVERYTHING?

I'LL BE DEAD SOON ANYWAY.
CHEOL-SEONG'S MOTHER WON'T LIVE MUCH LONGER.
THAT BASTARD ALWAYS FINDS ME WHEREVER I GO.

OKAY, IF YOU DON'T GET A RESPONSE
FROM THE CHINESE BY THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW,
I'LL UPLOAD THE RECORDING TO THE INTERNET.
THE CITIZENS HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT
GOES ON BETWEEN DETECTIVES AND THEIR SUSPECTS.

I'LL HAVE LUNCH WITH THE CHINESE THE DAY
AFTER TOMORROW, SO COME HOME AT 10.

[AUDIO RECORDINGS: 0]

The morning of the day your mother died,
you met Song Seo-rae, correct?

She came to see me.

Early in the morning.

She said it'd hurt her heart if
my mother was to die in such bad shape.

Everything aside, we're both Chinese.

She didn't advise you to try any further drugs?

For diabetes, or something like...

...a lime-green capsule...?

Nothing like that.

That woman knows how to take care of patients.

My mother was in a really great mood
thanks to her!

So I left for breakfast.

But when I returned after eating,
Song Seo-rae had already left,

and my mother was lying comfortably
with her eyes closed.

She told me that, somehow,
she was a bit sleepy.

And then...

But what does my mother's
death have to do with Song Seo-rae?

Didn't Cheol-seong tell us that he had
a tracking app installed on his phone?

Hae-joon.

I fixed Im Ho-shin's phone.

There aren't any audio recordings.

Sa Cheol-seong killed your husband.

But you killed Cheol-seong's mother!

You knew that Cheol-seong would kill
your husband if his mother died.

Your husband, Cheol-seong's mother...

They both died because of me, right?

She would've died soon anyway.

Why were you so willing to give her fentanyl?

She thanked me.

What was in that audio recording that
Im Ho-shin threatened to spread?

Don't worry about it.

I'm not asking because I'm worried!

You have the original recording, right?
What's in it?

Your voice.

What?

Your voice telling me that you love me.

Me?

I listen to it all the time.

My husband discovered the recording.

When did I say I loved you?

When?

The moment you told me you loved me
was when your love had to end.

And the moment when your love ended,
was when mine began.

...Say it in Korean!

Seo-rae...

Hae-joon.

That phone you recovered from
the ocean.

Throw it again.

Retire it to the depths of the sea.

Why do you always say such irrelevant things?
It's frustrating!

Seo-rae, where are you going?

Seo-rae.

Hello?

Hello?

Seo-rae!

[AUDIO RECORDINGS: 1]
"BREAKING AND FALLING APART"

To burn my photos...

and to delete my recordings,
that must've been too easy for you.

You knew that after pretending to like me,
I'd take care of everything for you.

Don't speak about us like that...

Throw this phone into the ocean.

Retire it to the depths of the sea,
and don't let anyone find it.

Throw this phone into the ocean.

"Throw this phone into the ocean."

Retire it to the depths of the sea,
"Retire it to the depths of the sea,"

and don't let anyone find it.
"and don't let anyone find it."

Maybe I came to Ipo to become
one of your unresolved cases again.

Hang a picture of me on the wall,
and think about me when you can't fall asleep.

Seo-rae!

Seo-rae, where are you?

Hey, send out an emergency alert.

Near the rocks on the shore.
The tide's going to rise!

Bring everyone that's able to come!

She left her car and disappeared!

We can find her if we hurry,
she couldn't have gone far.

If you have time to ask me questions,
why not just come at once?

It'll be dark in a few minutes!

Because of this obsession I have for a woman...

I... I'm collapsing.

I've replaced that woman's phone.
With the same model.

She didn't notice at all.

Throw this phone into the ocean.

Retire it to the depths of the sea,
and don't let anyone find it.

"Throw this phone into the ocean."

Your voice telling me that you love me.

Seo-rae!

Seo-rae!

Seo-rae!

Seo-rae!

Seo-rae!

Seo-rae!
