(Previously on 'Item')

I am sorry, Gon.

You must...

look after...

Da In from now.

I told you. I'm special.

Don't you know what
that item means to me?

I'm sure they left traces,

so bring it back.

This makes no sense.

You old men are
clueless, aren't you?

Nam Chul Soon, the chairman
of Tree of Hope Foundation,

has been missing for a
week since the 24th.

What has made him that anxious?

Or there could have
been someone else...

who could explain all of these.

Excuse me.

Could you move your arm?

Sure.

Anyway, thank you.

Why are you staring at me?

Nothing.

Okay.

Have we...

met before?

Pardon?

Do you know me?

No.

No, I don't.

Then you must have mistaken me
for someone else.

Wait.

I've seen you.

Pardon?

This will make me sound crazy.

In my dream,

I saw you die.

Okay. Let me get this straight.

Do you want me to believe that?

Would you believe that
if you were me?

(Episode 3)

I think I might have been...

mistaken.

I'm sorry.

Mr. Kang.

You came here early.

Dad.

Hey.

What are you two doing here?

Oh, he told me he's moving in
one floor above me.

- We just said hi.
- I see.

That's great.

She's my daughter.

I see.

So you're Da In.

Do you remember me?

We met once when you were little.

But then again, I must've aged
too much for you to remember, right?

How about you come over to eat?

Their broth is amazing.

- Let's go up.
- No, thank you.

I have to finish unpacking
before going to work.

Are you already working from today?

Yes, I should.

Right, he's probably busy unpacking,
so let's leave him be.

Gosh, you're so strong. Hold on.

- I'll meet you later, then.
- All right.

Da In, I'll see you around.

I'll buy you
some delicious ice cream later.

- Don't pull.
- Let's go.

Goodbye. Oh, goodness.

Hey, don't be mistaken.

I didn't fall in love with her
or something like that.

Go on in.

Hey, it's not like that!

Hey!

Here comes the ox bone soup.
This is hot.

Let's eat.

- Thank you for the meal.
- You're welcome.

- Dad.
- Yes?

Do you want some pepper?

Do you know him well?

- Know whom?
- The guy upstairs.

Why?

You're interested, aren't you?

It's not that.

- It felt like...
- Yes, go on.

He seemed to be very surprised
to see me.

Oh, come on. That's a given.

Why?

How could you call yourself
a profiler...

when you're so dull-sighted?

Just tell me why.

He pretty much fell in love
with you at first sight.

You are my destiny

Oh, whatever.

So Young.

That girl, Da In, is his niece.

Her parents passed away
in an accident,

so he's been
looking after her instead.

Poor him.

He neither dates nor gets married
because of his niece.

So what's the deal with you?

You don't have a niece like that,

so when will you date someone
and get married?

Dad, I'm still in my 20s.

Sure.

A 29-year-old who will be turning 30
next year.

Do you not like living with me?

Why are you so determined
to send me away?

No, I don't like it.
I'm so sick and tired of it.

Hey, why didn't you take out
the dried radish?

It's tasty.

Where is the dried radish?

That's odd. Where is it?

So Young, you should let me live
without any worries now.

Here it is.

Goodness.

Da In.

Kang Da In.

I'm going to work now.

And when...

the babysitter comes...

Are you saying that to me?

(Don't be sorry.)

A new item?

Who are you?

Why are you to threaten me?

Who are you?

Why are you to bring up the past?

Stay away!

I'll give you money.

I'll give you as much as you want.

So please...

You conceited scumbag.

(3 years ago,
Seoul District Prosecutors' Office)

Hello, sir.

Chairman Jo, thank you.

Let's have some tea inside.

Sir.

Okay.

Wait. We should...

Sir...

Do you have time for this?

Let's go to the interrogation room.

Hey, Prosecutor Kang.

What are you doing?

Do you know who I am?

You must think you're special,

seeing how all the prosecutors
are here to see you.

In my eyes, I see no difference
between you and petty criminals.

Prosecutor Kang.

Listen carefully.

I am special.

Because...

I am this country.

Chairman Jo.

You should learn common sense again.

How could you call yourself that
when you've tricked the people?

[Kocowa Ver] MBC E03 'Item'

-♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

(Unknown Number)

Prosecutor Kang Gon speaking.

It's been a long time.

Welcome back, Prosecutor Kang.

So...

Did you have a good rest?

I believe you finally learned that
you can't fight against the waves.

Chairman Jo.

Do listen to what I am about to say.

This is something I always told
gangsters when I investigated them,

and they always seemed
to get touched.

Mr. Kang, you're the same as before.

I will be a brave prosecutor who
removes the injustice of this world.

A warm-hearted prosecutor who looks
after the weak and the neglected.

A fair prosecutor
who only follows the truth.

A prosecutor who holds
a high standard against him.

I will do my best...

to serve my people and my country.

I believe...

you finally learned that
you can't fight against the waves.

Do you get that, Chairman Jo?

Is that the dog barking?

Of course, it should bark.

And when it sees a crazy man,
it should bite him.

You haven't changed, Mr. Kang.

That's why I like you.
You're interesting.

I've always been witty.

People don't change that easily.

Oh, and...

stop calling me
over something so petty.

I'm very busy.

- Surprise!
- Surprise!

Welcome back to
Seoul District Prosecutors' Office.

- Chief Shin.
- What? Why?

Goodness. Prosecutor Kang.

I'm sorry.

My team members are the only ones
who are glad to see me back.

Right?

Don't lower your guard.

You're the legendary detective
of Serious Crime Squad.

Right?

Chief Shin.

We're a team.

Come on, let's get back to work.

Yes.

I'm sorry.

My goodness.

- Thank you.
- Chief Shin.

Thank you for everything.
Finding a house for me...

and a babysitter.

Thank you for everything.

Don't mention it.

We are...

neighbors now, aren't we?

Anyway, does Da In like that house?

Well, Seoul is unfamilar to her,

so she needs time to get used to it.

She looked absolutely bright.

She'll get used to it soon.

So is she in third grade now?

Yes.

That's when they're
the most adorable.

You two should spend
a lot of quality time together.

We will.

All right.

Goodness, I'm all out of soy sauce.

Where is the soy sauce?

I don't think there is any.

Da In, what is it?

You can help me?

Goodness, what a good girl.

Anyway, are you sure you can
find your way around here?

Okay, then. One second.

Let's see.

You can go get
a bottle of soy sauce. Okay?

Green light, red light.

Green light...

- Watch out.
- Watch it!

Goodness, watch out.

My goodness.

Se Yeon, are you all right?

I'm sorry, Father.

No, don't worry about it.

This was already broken anyway.
It's all right.

Did you get hurt? Goodness.

Se Yeon.

What did I say a brave girl is like?

A girl who doesn't cry all the time.

Yes.

Yes. A girl
who doesn't cry all the time.

Se Yeon, do you want me...

to tell you a secret?

I used to cry a lot just like you.

And I was tiny too.

That's why my nickname
was Little Bean.

- Really?
- Yes.

I'm a priest. I wouldn't lie.

Then does that mean
I will grow taller later?

Of course.

I want to be like you
when I grow up.

Se Yeon, you should become...

someone who is much better than me.

Are you sure you will be okay?

I'm all right now.

Come and find me if it hurts later.

I'll treat you.

- Father.
- Yes?

When you weren't a priest,

were you really a doctor?

Why?

Do you want me to give you a shot?

Hey, say your name.

Are you ignoring me?

Hey, I think she really is retarded.

- Gosh.
- If you just moved in,

you need to come and greet us.

Hey, she might cry soon...

if you bully her a little more.

Hey, do you want to be
friends with us?

Do you know what the fastest way
to become our friend is?

Money.

We'll pay you back later.
Let us borrow some money.

You all saved my life today.

Please save me again next time.

You need to swing your bat right...

to put the ball in. Isn't that so?

Of course.

Sir, from now on,
you can play golf here.

You two need to
look after him. Okay?

I'd love to come here every day
to work out with you two.

Sir, one second.

Right.

My service to you, sir.

It's so cold. I have to go.

Sir, thank you for everything.

Don't say anything
that will cause a misunderstanding.

Every single citizen of Korea...

should be treated fairly
before the law.

Yes.

Are we here already?

Where did you bring me?

Is this the first time
you've worked as a chauffeur?

Who are you?

Do you remember Nam Chul Soon?

What?

Don't you want to know
what he said...

right before he died?

Who are you?

I don't know him.
I don't know who he is.

Your lying...

tongue.

Sir.

The chief prosecutor,
Kim Jae Jun, was murdered.

Care for a cup of whiskey?

I'm sorry, but my work
for the day hasn't finished yet.

He's very unfortunate.

He buttered me up so much
to become a chief justice.

Okay.

Keep me updated
about the investigation.

Yes, sir.

Prosecutor Han.

You can stay a little longer.

I must get back to my office.

Do you know about
the law of equivalent exchange?

If I give something precious to you,

you must give me
something equivalent in return.

Don't forget that.

Goodness, you came as I expected.

Shin So Young,
the almighty profiler.

- Please wait.
- Pardon?

Can I check one thing?

Check what?

Inside his mouth.

What is that?
It looks like a piece of paper.

No.

This isn't just paper.

This is from the Bible.

(Episode 4 will air shortly.)

(Shin Gu Cheol)

- Prosecutor Kang.
- Yes?

The deputy prosecutor wants you
to come to his office.

The deputy prosecutor?

(Deputy Prosecutor Lee Han Gil)

Did you rest up while you were gone?

I didn't. I've been working.

An hour ago,

the chief prosecutor, Kim Jae Jun,
was found murdered.

I'm sure you know about
the relationship between Kim...

and Chairman Jo Se Hwang
more than anyone.

Before it gets too noisy,
catch the culprit.

I investigate for the victim,

not for Jo Se Hwang.

You came back because you got luck
with the current administration.

You still haven't learned
your lesson.

You must have realized
what's good or bad for you...

after rotting there for three years.

I know for sure
that Jo Se Hwang is bad.

I will investigate the case
according to...

the letters of the law
and my conscience.

Gosh, that stubborn brat.

Yes, this is Kang Gon speaking.

Hi, this is the babysitter
for Da In.

Hi.

My grandson got hurt today,

so I'm on my way home now.

I just felt bad
that Da In is at home all alone.

Did you get home by now?

No. I'm still at work.

I'll go home now.

Okay.

(Clumsy Uncle)

(2 Missed Calls)

(Clumsy Uncle)

(Princess Da In)

Why aren't you home?
What are you doing here?

Oh, my. I guess
you also like playing the melodeon.

When I was young,
I really liked playing it too.

I'm not dangerous.
I'm a police officer.

Hold on.

Here. See? Shin So Young.

Whom were you playing the song for?

My hand?

For...

Uncle?

Do you want to see
the stars with me?

You can see the stars better
when you lie down like this.

Try it.

When I was young,

I was like you too.

I don't know what made you this way.

For me,

it was because I felt like I was
the only one who survived.

I really felt sorry to my mom.

So I couldn't talk to anyone.

So it's okay for you
not to speak now.

Once time passes,

you'll want to speak again.

Da In.

Da In?

Da In?

"Thank you"?

Da In.

I'm sorry...

that I have made you wait.

Thank you.

It's nothing. We're neighbors.

Goodbye, then.

Mom, do you remember?

You were like that once.

When I returned from school...

and was home alone,

you'd always apologize...

for making me wait.

The breeze is so nice.

("Real-life supernatural powers ")

("Real-life supernatural powers ")

Gosh, we're late.

Let's go.

Your hairpin.

Goodness.

Okay.

You look so pretty. It's perfect.

Don't you trust me? Don't you?

Let's go.

- So Young.
- Yes?

I'll head out first.

- Let's go together.
- Shall we?

- Let's go.
- All right.

Let's go.

Prosecutor Kang Gon

Sir, are you headed somewhere?

I'm going to the crime scene.

It has started once again.

That's his style.

You can clock out first
if we don't return on time.

- Okay, good luck.
- Thank you.

(Manager Kim Kyung Hee)

Come in.

I'm here.

Am I supposed to compliment you?

Is the autopsy report out?

You've made many enemies.

They claim that
you're poking around.

Hey, let's take that craziness
down a notch.

What can I do? I was born this way.

Is that so?

Right, you're
Chief Shin Gu Cheol's daughter.

It's not your fault, is it?

Don't smile. You'll grow on me.

(Autopsy Report)

Chief Prosecutor Kim Jae Jun...

and Nam Chul Soon...

were killed with the same
murder weapon, right?

That's very likely.

Professor.

May I take this autopsy report?

I think there's a thief
at the National Forensic Service.

Things keep missing.

I will catch the thief.

How could that fool of a father
have such a smart daughter?

This was where the car was parked.

It turns out that
around that time yesterday,

all the CCTV cameras
were temporarily turned off.

It could've been a short circuit
since it rained yesterday.

If it was, it'd be odd
since they turned on again.

Did you check
the switch box yourself?

Sorry? Well...

Where are you going?

I should check myself.

To claim that the rain
caused the blackout,

it seems a bit problematic,
don't you think?

You're right.

I know.

It's completely dry in there.

If the blackout happened
during the time of the crime,

that means there's another reason.

Do you think
it's the killer's doing?

Let's look around a bit more.

What is that?

I didn't know
people ordered food in there.

"Jangpung"?

What kind of a name
for a Chinese restaurant is that?

Jung Pil.

What's going on?

- I'm working right now.
- What is it?

I'm busy.

Goodness. Fine, then.

Would you like to order
some jjajangmyeon?

I saw you looking at the leaflet.

Wait a minute.

Did you deliver here yesterday?

The leaflet doesn't look too old.

I've been delivering
for 10 years now.

I can even ride the bike
with no hands.

That's enough.

He's a prosecutor.

- A prosecutor?
- That's correct.

We're from
Seoul District Prosecutors' Office.

That's right.

I was so creeped out yesterday.

Did you see something?

It was like a will-o'-the-wisp.

I saw a strange light.

I got goosebumps all over my body.

What did you just say?

You saw a light?

You will order food, right?

My goodness.

That place with the flash.
Can you zoom in there again?

Sure.

I don't think it's the flashlight
from someone's phone.

I doubt
it's a supernatural phenomenon.

A supernatural phenomenon?

Are you suggesting that it is
will-o' the-wisp or something?

Can you explain that
with scientific terms?

Well.

It's difficult to explain that
in a scientific way.

Can you analyze the flash
within the day?

I can't do it within this day.

It'll take me a few days.

All right.

Then give me a call right away
when you have a detailed analysis.

Sure.

Chief Shin, please wrap this up.

Prosecutor Kang,
where are you going?

My gosh.

What's with you?

Sir, please give me the permission.

You've been watching
too many movies.

Do you think everyone
is a serial killer?

That's why I want to
investigate the case.

Lieutenant Shin.
Will you keep saying this?

The two victims are
completely unrelated.

And you.

It's because of that line
you saw on their bodies, right?

Hey, come to your senses.

Most murders in Korea are...

committed by strangling
with a string or stabbing.

How are you going to explain
the signature you see...

in both victims' bodies?

Why do you want to
blow this up so badly?

It might be a copycat crime.

Mr. Choi.

This crime should not be
taken that casually.

Then if we take it seriously...

and do not resolve it,
will you take the responsibility?

Do you want to see
all of us get fired?

Is that something
a detective should say?

What? "Is that something
a detective should say?"

How dare you talk to me...

- Calm down.
- My gosh. I have a headache.

Ms. Shin is right.

Hey.

I don't think this should be
taken too casually.

Seo Yo Han.

I will be her assistant.

Please, I ask of you.

(Supply Room)

Let's go.

Yo Han, we need to talk.

Why?

- Follow me.
- Ms. Shin.

Ms. Shin.

Goodness.

Do you pity me?

If so, then there is
no need to take my side.

Just do your job.

What's my job?

What?

Isn't my job to resolve cases?

I became a detective because I
wanted to catch criminals like you.

Right. I overreacted.

You're a profiler.

You should try to put together
what the criminal is like.

I'll catch them.

What? Hey.

I'll get going.

Goodness.

Has that scumbag gone insane?

Hey!

Is he crazy?

I haven't seen him for a while,
then he came back insane.

Hey!

You little rat.

It's mine.

That bracelet is mine.

You missed getting beaten up,
didn't you?

I would have killed you already
only if I had that bracelet.

Only if I had that bracelet...

Hey, my noodles are
all bloated because of you.

So go get me some
fried chicken, you idiot.

Only if I had that bracelet...

Darn it.

You must want to die.

It's mine.

That bracelet is mine.

It's my item.

Only if I had not lost it,

I would have killed you.

Excuse me.

Goodness.

Who's there?

Who are you?

Oh, by any chance,

are you
Mr. Ko Dae Soo's grandmother?

I don't know anyone by that name.

Do you need some help?

No, it's all right.

Ma'am.

Mr. Ko is back home, isn't he?

That's why you got him some beer.

Right?

Dae Soo went to...

Poongnyeon Game Center often.

My boy used to be such a nice kid.

Then one day,

he suddenly became odd.

Hey.

Did a guy named
Ko Dae Soo come here?

Who are you?

I'm a prosecutor.

What? A prosecutor?

Where is Mr. Ko right now?

I need field backup right now.

Hey, Ko Dae Soo.

You jerk.

Why?

Are you glad to see me?

It's because of you.

Only if it wasn't for you.

Darn it.

(Princess Da In's birthday)

Your egg sandwich is ready.

Thank you.

I'm sorry. One second.

Sure.

Happy birthday to you

A round of applause!

Let's blow the candles out.
In 1, 2, 3.

Let's eat.

Is it good?

So Young.

Did you hear
some kind of song from upstairs?

I think it was a birthday song.

- Birthday?
- Yes.

Hold on.

Three years ago
before Mr. Kang went away,

I had a stomachache from eating
shaved ice on his birthday.

It's not Mr. Kang's birthday.

Then it must be
the little girl's birthday.

I guess it is.

Hey, should we cook some stew
and send it upstairs?

Look, Mr. Shin Gu Cheol.

Didn't you cook that
to feed your own daughter?

You get to eat my food all the time.

All right.

- Dad.
- What?

You should let them spend time
by themselves on a day like this.

It was the same with us.

When it was your and my birthday,

we just wanted to spend the days
with just Mom.

Just the three of us.

That's life

Amor...

It's mine.

It's mine.

I'm going to kill everyone.

Isn't it fun...

to watch someone suffering
in their death throes?

Gon.

There won't be a problem, right?

The witness is infallible.

When the witness arrives, I can get
him during the cross-examination.

Sir.

- Escort him out right now.
- Yes, sir.

You can't do that.

Have you gone mad?

Get out of my way.

Hey, jerk. Open the door now.

What are you doing?
Get the door open.

Yes, sir.

Sir.

A witness who can prove
Jo Se Hwang's crime will be here.

If you wait just a bit longer...

Wait for what?

Gon.

The vice chairman, Bae Sung Han,

lit charcoal briquettes in his car
and committed suicide.

Right. He also left
a written suicide note.

What a shame.

He had a whole future ahead of him.

Did you do this?

Me?

Why?

You scumbag.

What are you doing?

Let go. Let go of me!

It's over. Stop it now.

Hold on.

That's no way to treat a prosecutor.

Could I talk to him in private?

Sure.

Don't be so upset. I didn't do it.

You think you won, don't you?

Would you like to know who won?

I'm going to catch you
at all costs.

Mark my words.

I'm just getting started.

That sounds fun.

I wonder how it will end between us.

Right.

You have no choice
but to entertain me, Mr. Kang.

It's mine.

(445-15, Hanso-dong,
Gangseo-gu, Seoul)

It was mine.

I'll be honest.

No one could entertain me
like you did, Mr. Kang.

You know that
you always have me, right?

I'm going to protect you
to the end, Da In.

I should go find the item tonight.

Save me!

Do you think
there's a serial killer?

It's speculated that
there will be five more murders.

What if the murder weapon
has special powers beyond humans?

Do you think that's possible?

- It's fun because of this.
- Someone is here.

How did you know that
there would be a murder here?

Bad things started happening.

It's possible
that our future cases...

will be different from
what we've been dealing with.
