(Episode 11)

(Gong Ji Chul)

I wanted to see her,

at least once.

Jun Ha Eun.

It's time for "Case Inside."

Today, we have with us the author of "Secrets of a Murderer,"

and the attorney at Gong Ji Chul's trial.

She's Jang Hye Mi, John Grisham of Korea.

Welcome to the studio.

Would it be okay to refer to you as the expert of Gong Ji Chul?

Not really. I've only written a novel...

based on the scribblings on the wall in his solitary confinement.

There's a poem here.

"A bone comes out of a birdcage."

"When it was separated from the world and life, alive,"

"the bone would croak."

"Leaving there its robe of feathers,"

"it walks out, whistling."

This was the poem he transcribed on the day before he was executed.

I see. At the ending of your novel,

Gong Ji Chul is still alive at the end.

Do you think he might still be alive somewhere?

No one thinks that Jack the Ripper or Zodiac Killer is alive,

but we still talk about them.

Gong Ji Chul is just like that.

Isn't that why...

someone would want to be noticed by committing a copycat crime?

Do you think Gong Ji Chul as a psychopath?

I...

have interviewed many serial killers.

But Gong Ji Chul is not a psychopath.

He's not a psychopath?

Gong Ji Chul had...

all the emotions a human being could have.

He could even feel beauty.

He likes to read and loves music.

("Case Inside," KBC)

He was...

the same as ordinary people in the beginning.

("Secrets of a Murderer")

("His wish was to live again.")

"I wanted to live."

I wanted to live.

That woman is alive.

(Resurrection)

Why is this thing buried here, Father?

I assume you're aware of something.

Father!

That child thought of resurrection.

Who is that child?

Chun Jong Bum?

No, I'm not at school now.

I'm at the museum for remains.

I don't know what he's doing, but he won't come out.

Why are you tying ribbons on the tree?

It's a ritual in East Asia that carries a wish of resurrection.

The body may have died, but the soul will be a butterfly...

and fly away, they'd hoped.

In the national myths of Eurasia, ribbons symbolized...

the border between this life and the afterlife.

(The Archeology of Death Exhibition)

(Hosted by Korean Osteology Society, Supervised by Seoyeon University)

The Altai natives hung ribbons on sacred trees...

in this way and made a wish.

They wished their loved one could resurrect back to life.

When I see your face...

at the museum of remains,

sometimes you're like a whole different person.

Someone I don't know well.

But then...

someone I think I might know so well.

Oh, Prosecutor Kim.

I'd like to ask you to accompany me voluntarily.

We found the remains of a baby at Sky Garden Cathedral today.

Remains?

If I accompanied you voluntarily,

would it be as a suspect or testifier?

You'll know when you get there.

What is it?

It's nothing. Please don't worry, Professor.

I'm asking you what this is about.

We should go. You can stay here, Ms. Jung.

I feel so comfortable seeing you here. We should've met here sooner.

Chun Jong Bum. Or...

shall I call you Chun Eun Woo?

You can call me as you wish.

The box that carried the child's remains had your fingerprints.

You buried the box by yourself.

The priest gave testimony.

So do you think that I killed the child?

You're not as imaginative as you look.

Prosecutor Kim Su Hyuk.

Is that so?

Then let's hear what imagination I need.

That child was Lim Hwa Young's.

- What? - Check the DNA results.

DNA...

So you're saying...

The day she died...

she told me something while she was drunk.

That she killed her own child with her own hands.

- So? - And I found the child...

who was buried in the mountains.

Then I moved the remains to the cathedral.

Do you expect me to believe that?

I'm only telling you the facts.

It's up to you to believe it or not.

How did you know where the child was buried?

How would I have known?

- I heard from Hwa Young. - Whatever.

All right, let's say that's true.

Then why... Why did you do it?

You dug up a buried child...

then wrapped it up in a box...

and buried it again in the cathedral. Why?

Did you form a meaningful relationship with Hwa Young?

Or did she ask that as a last favor before she died?

You killed her. Didn't you?

I felt bad for the child.

You felt bad?

I guess you came up with some sort of a story.

But who would believe you?

You killed a woman when you were 15.

Do you want me to read your criminal records again?

You killing that girl back then...

is also a fact, isn't it?

- I don't know about that. - You don't know?

I have a question.

Why did you ring the neighbor's bell before you killed Hwa Young?

The neighbor's bell?

I pressed a doorbell?

But what does that bell have anything to do with the sock?

You pressed the bell then waved the sock.

Someone like you wouldn't have pressed that bell by accident.

Tell me why you set up a witness.

Sir.

The chief prosecutor has called you in.

Jong Bum's fingerprints were found on the remains of the child.

So I'm looking into that.

I don't care whether it's the DNA or the fingerprints.

But you can make up evidence or hide them. You're good at that.

But why did you do it this time?

Why?

Should we call a press conference with the people...

you put up in jail with fabricated warrants and proofs?

Su Hyuk.

Yes, sir.

Are you trying to be my enemy?

Why do people play the victim...

when they are the ones at fault?

That woman killed her own child ten years ago...

yet tell me her dead child is torturing her.

I'm going to throw this away.

So it can't...

torture me anymore.

I'm going to throw it away.

Watch me.

Goodbye.

I've done it.

You don't throw sins away.

You shouldn't let them fade like old photographs.

You need to keep them...

in your heart.

Then...

blood must be repaid with blood.

If you set up a witness for me,

I guess you didn't get what you wanted.

(Gong Ji Chul)

(If there's someone else you want to kill, we can meet again.)

I think I'll find you before that.

Are you okay?

I guess you miss Su Hyuk a lot. Why are you driving so recklessly?

- Hello. - Where are you?

You know that place I like near the practice room, right?

I'm on my way.

Can you change the music?

Do I have to listen to the violin even here?

I hope you understand.

She's a violinist.

She hears the strings five times louder than other people.

Okay, ma'am.

I guess your tastes don't change.

I like them young and tender.

How about you, Su Hyuk? Does this fit your tastes?

I'm having them because you like them.

I heard...

you're looking into the Gong Ji Chul tribute murder cases.

Someone who would pay respect to Ji Chul...

would only kill the targets that Ji Chul would go for.

Su Hyuk, did you see my mom on the television?

She's an expert on Gong Ji Chul.

So who's the target?

Someone who Gong Ji Chul would want to kill.

I don't know.

Ji Chul couldn't kill the woman he loved.

If he was still alive...

who would he want to kill?

A psychopath had someone he loved?

Of course.

His tragedy...

started when he was abandoned by his mother.

It's quite unpleasant...

to refer to it as "tragedy."

There's one thing I agree with you.

Murder cannot be stopped by one's own will.

Try observing the kid...

I mentioned last time.

Kid? What kid are you talking about?

Excuse me for a second.

We can make a bet.

He's going to commit murder for sure.

I'm talking about Chun Jong Bum.

You make bets with people's lives.

I saw him for the first time when he was 13.

He was very interested in Gong Ji Chul.

So I gave him a book as a present.

You gave him a book about serial killers...

to a 13-year-old boy.

I have a talent for identifying psychopaths.

I know how to handle them.

No one in his home understands him.

He's going to come looking for me someday.

I wanted him to be honest then.

So did he come to you?

No.

He had a stronger mentality than I expected.

Just wait and see.

He'll make great success in his own field.

Let's just hope it isn't murder.

Just wait and see.

He'll make great success in his own field.

Let's just hope it isn't murder.

(The signature mark of Gong Ji Chul)

(Jang Hye Mi, "Secrets of A Murderer")

(Gong Ji Chul and Jang Hye Mi)

Oh, my goodness.

She was talking about how she killed her own baby with a pillow.

The tragedy of Gong Ji Chul...

started when he was abandoned by his mother.

A person who gave "Secrets of A Murderer..."

as a gift and the one who read it.

A novelist who cherishes Gong Ji Chul...

and someone who has become one with him.

Instead of Gong Ji Chul, he makes a judgment...

on the mother who abandoned her baby.

He's going to commit murder for sure.

I'm talking about Chun Jong Bum.

I felt pity...

for the baby.

I asked you what was going on.

Why does she keep him beside her?

Is it good?

My heart!

I want to be your vampire tonight.

What are you talking about? You don't look strong enough.

- Pardon? - Uncle must've...

forgotten to take his medicine.

Dear Uncle Freak,

please be careful who you're talking to.

Okay.

Just beat it No one's want to be defeated

Have a good time.

"Everything is up to mind."

If we think it's the alcohol that's inside the skull, it is.

If we think it's water, then it's water indeed.

It means everything depends on how you think.

Bottoms up.

Hey, aren't you drinking?

Why the long face?

What's going on?

What's that look with the food in front of you?

(Chun Jong Bum)

Please excuse me.

Leave it. Hey!

- It's noisy there. Where are you? - Where are you?

I'm on my way home.

Are you okay? You...

I know you're curious.

Ask me what you wanted to know.

Shall we take a walk?

I've decided not to be curious about you.

- Are you listening? - Go on.

You only need to think about yourself from now on.

Only the present you matter to me.

I'm not going to believe what others say about you.

I'll get mad at those who talk about things I don't know about you.

I'm...

only going to believe what you show me.

I'm going to hang up now.

Oh, right, my boss.

Hey!

How can you go home alone while we're drinking?

Get back here right now.

I'm on my way.

I'm not going to believe what others say about you.

I'll get mad at those who talk about things I don't know about you.

I'm...

only going to believe what you show me.

I'm only going to believe what you show me.

This is my second atrium and second ventricle.

The human heart contracts around 60 to 70 times per minute.

It's about 100,000 on average per day.

If a person lives up to 70 years,

the heart contracts 2.6 million times.

The energy produced by the heart in one hour is...

equivalent to lifting a person of 75 kg...

to the top of a three-floor building.

A heart failure rate is lower than an ultra-precision machine.

Bovie.

A heart weighs 350 to 600 grams.

The heart is located...

at the center of the chest...

at the front.

It's shaped like a cone between the two lungs.

It's a piece of muscle as small as a fist.

The purpose of the heart is...

only to apply pressure like a piston engine.

The blood that enters the left ventricle...

through the bicuspid valve from the left atrium is...

a muscle activity of the left ventricle...

that opens the aorta valve.

It rises to the aorta flowing throughout the body.

The human genes are still active for 24 hours after death.

The heart still beats even during brain death.

A heart is...

To me, a heart is a gift.

To me,

a heart is a machine.

(Episode 12)

If someone with an organ transplant takes...

immunosuppressive drug with grape fruit,

one can experience abnormalities of heart beat, respiration,

and even end up in death. Don't you know?

Because of the substance in grape fruit,

the effects of immunosuppressive drug will...

become five to ten times higher,

leading to severe side effects.

How did you know that I had a heart transplant?

Few people would be unaware of that as a medical student.

The article of your interview was translated into five languages.

The first to get the transplant from a death-row convict 18 years ago.

Oh, gosh.

By the way,

- I have a gift for you. - A gift?

I'd figured you'd like old stones since you like skulls so much.

It's an old stone that flew here from the universe.

It's a necklace made with meteorite fallen in Argentine 5,000 years ago.

It's been certified by the observatory...

so it's got to be real.

It's shining although it's just a stone.

It'll amaze you because the color keeps changing.

Why don't you try it on?

He only dates girls with surgery scars.

I want to ask you something.

What do you think about women with surgery scars?

Surgery scars?

A medical student would have nothing against that.

Isn't it done yet?

It's done now.

Are you feeling cold? Why are you shivering?

Isn't it obvious?

I'm allowing someone to touch my neck.

That's not it.

I mean I'm allowing someone to touch my body. That's also not it.

I'll go now.

What are you doing?

It's 50 cm tall and assumed to be less than 2 months old.

The gender is unverifiable.

The baby had to shut it's eyes by the time...

it could meet it's mother's eyes.

Are you done now?

This baby didn't even start to get teeth.

We got the DNA results for this baby remains.

It's the biological child of Lim from Pureun Studio Apartment.

And Chun Jong Bum is...

the suspect for the murder case of Lim Hwa Young.

I could send you the records of the case investigation if you'd like.

Did you say Chun Jong Bum?

Isn't it the most dangerous thing to specify a suspect...

when you are under investigation?

Why are you...

giving him a chance?

You shoudn't do that to a guy like Chun Jong Bum.

Sometimes beasts live among humans and have the look of a human being.

They're hiding their instincts.

Those beasts will bite a person off if there's the slightest chance.

Murder is what happens within that chance,

not in a broad daylight.

I can no longer have those beasts hurt my people...

after they get this chance.

That chance may seem to be little, but my father...

Prosecutor,

why do you always lose your temper before me?

I never lost my temper.

I'll ask you again.

Why are you always concerned about me while you are angry?

- Concerned? - You're being concerned about me.

Let's stop here.

Geez.

(Model demonstration)

Did you separate the bones and flesh correctly?

You're the best at this job.

Did you handle the bones well?

Oh, Chun Jong Bum.

I'll be there soon. Bye.

I happened to overhear your conversation, unwillingly.

Would my bones and flesh be seperated now?

What brings you here?

- I live nearby. - Oh, really? Where is it?

This is your house?

No, it's the rooftop house of this building.

Lady Sabin!

When you're feeling lonely, you can come and see me

When you're feeling blue, you can come and see me

When you're feeling lonely, you can sing live at Body Check

Come to see me

It's good to see you again.

Did you say the kid's name was Jong Bum?

Do you like salmon or something else?

Hey. Put that knife down, right now.

I raised my child with this knife.

If you hold up a knife, looking as you do,

who will think you're a raw fish chef?

People will think you're a defect and ex-convict...

going to kill your wife who had an affair.

A defect?

An ex-convict?

A defect.

An ex-convict.

I didn't kill someone,

but it was attempted murder.

Why are you talking so much, you pseudo-ex-convict...

who used to live off this girl.

I shall change the location of your ribs...

in an extraordinary way.

A brother who murders another brother...

- You're going to murder. - What do you think, Sa Bin?

Between attempted murder...

and jerks who betray their own people,

who is worse off?

- Should I be frank? - Be honest with me.

I think it's neck and neck.

I should tear you two to shreds and quarter you.

But I think playing with people's minds is...

a bit more unlikeable, personally.

You're right.

- That's right. - Why you...

Whatever.

Hey, Jong Bum.

What do you think?

Tell me who is more of a jerk.

- I want to ask you something. - Go ahead.

Did you give up trying to murder someone,

or did you fail to do it?

You must've made a plan for your murder.

Didn't you feel despondent after you'd given up?

Amen.

Everyone who can hear shall hear him.

Jong Bum, you're like a forensic psychologist.

You're my type of guy, both the way you look...

and the way you talk.

Everyone who can hear shall hear him.

You're pretending to know even when you don't know, you jerk.

You jerk.

Help yourself.

Jong Bum, aren't you going to tell me to come inside?

I came here because I missed you.

Don't you think you've done enough?

Look at this place.

How could you live here?

You really must be a different breed from me.

I couldn't live a day in this place.

If Dad found out you came here,

he'll be really angry.

To me?

He'll be angry at you.

You should hang those in your room. Don't you think?

Why?

Did you leave it so you could return?

Drink it, brother.

If you don't drink your juice...

Mom would be disappointed in you.

His brother?

If I don't drink it, you would be disappointed not mom.

Why don't you drink it?

You should have a taste of something you made.

What?

You drank it even though you knew?

We can't become a family...

because you're spiteful like that.

I feel bad for you.

You even ate detergent...

just so you could stay at our house?

I don't have to drink it anymore.

Take all of it with you.

I guess we're not family anymore.

Who is it?

Hello.

I'm Jong Bum's little brother.

Jong Bum, I'll be going now.

Oh, right.

Mom told me to tell you to come to the charity party this weekend.

My uncle told me to give it to you because the heating here is bad...

due to construction.

Don't touch it.

I told you not to touch it.

Are you stupid?

You shouldn't have...

taken anything if you knew someone meddled with it.

If you didn't want that...

you should have splashed it in his face.

Your little brother is doing this to you!

You should have at least told your family. Who drinks this?

I'm warning you.

Don't come any closer.

Why did you do it?

Answer me. Why did you drink it even though you knew?

- Because I needed to be there. - There?

That was the only place I could go to.

Go.

Why?

Because you were a juvenile criminal or because you're a psychopath?

So...

is that why your family's doing this to you?

Even though you can't feel...

my anger, sadness, or hardship...

you can analyze and predict them.

That's what people call cold empathy.

All of your anger, sadness, and hardship,

I can feel them.

That's...

what people call hot empathy.

So there is no one in this world...

who can't empathize with another's pain.

Go away.

I'd go see that woman even if I die.

I'm going to meet that woman even if I die.

You don't look well. What's wrong?

I have something on my mind.

Su Hyuk, your mate for this lifetime is Sang Ah.

She's you're meant-to-be.

You have to protect her...

- if something bad happens to her. - Did you two plan this?

A relationship so close that hurts in the past life...

will just graze you in the present life.

But a bad relationship in your past life...

will come back to untie that knot.

So just...

be nice and loving to each other.

Su Hyuk, you heard her.

You need to be good to me.

So you're okay with us being bad in the past life?

Here.

I started making string bracelets...

because of a female osteology professor, who's a regular here,

but this is doing great as a hobby.

If this was a ring, I would have today's date engraved on it.

Right, Mom? What a pity.

I will put the ring that the dead couldn't let go even after death...

on his bride's finger.

- Where are you? - In the autopsy room, why?

I'll be there.

Geez.

Hey, mister.

Why are you beating again?

Why?

You're disturbing my leisure time on the weekends.

I'll leave right away after I hand this to you.

This is...

We found six bodies related to the Byun Sung Hoon case...

and he'll be put on trial soon.

You can return the ring to its owner.

I'll be on my way.

Hey.

Since you're here already let's go together.

We should return the ring together.

(Old Future)

(Old Future)

Mister.

Do you use this stamp...

in this bookstore?

("Old Future")

Not anymore.

We used to use it a long time ago.

Then,

how long have you run this book store?

It's been about 30 years.

After the former owner died,

his daughter died.

I took over after that.

A daughter?

You must've known the daughter well.

She's already dead.

I went to her funeral too 30 years ago.

- She's dead. - Yes.

I knew this would happen.

Did you think you'd meet her if you came here without notice?

How can they look...

that much alike?

But it seems like time has stopped here.

That's possible.

There haven't been...

any new books for 30 years.

I want to keep it that way...

until the day I die.

This book has been out of print but here it is.

There are theses here too. Oh, my goodness.

Go ahead and choose a book.

I'll buy you a book today.

Aren't you here to look for the owner of the ring?

(Resurrection)

I'll take this.

It's raining.

The books will get wet.

Do you like the rain?

Everything that falls from the sky is beautiful.

It's beautiful, but the cherry blossom will fall.

Did you see the big cherry blossom tree in front of the NFS?

I really wanted to take a picture this spring.

That tree fades the latest.

Pardon?

I said that the tree fades at the latest.

Do you like cherry blossoms?

Wait here while I get the car.

I got...

a heart transplant from a death-row convict.

Maybe that's why my heart pounds in fear whenever I see you.

But I get confused sometimes whether my heart is pounding...

because of my feelings or because of him.

Can I hold your hand just once?

I want to know whether it's pounding because of me or him.

Frankly speaking,

my heart was pounding since the first time I saw you.

Pardon?

Why? Wasn't it enough?

Can I do something else if it's not enough?

You're a medical school professor. Don't you have experiment ethics?

I'm a bit...

It's not like there's something wrong with me,

but why does my heart pound whenever I see you?

I've never felt my heart pounding in my life...

because of a man.

I may have a strong sense of experimentation.

(internal medicine)

It was the first day I felt someone else's pain.

And...

This is crazy.

I've developed feelings for this woman...

who has accepted my dark side.

(Born Again)

I see it.

You see other people's wounds, but you don't seem to see yours.

I'm happy I didn't make you regret.

You shouldn't get hurt because I like you.

Love? If you give it yet you don't get it back,

your love becomes an obsession.

Cain became the first murderer of the human race.

Oh, no. Prosecutor!
