[Episode 3 - I don't know my wife's face]
[Hoai♥]
The phone is turned off. You'll be connected to the voicemail after the beep.
Hoai, Hoai?
Are you there?
Mr. Lee Jong Goo?
What is this about?
We are police.
You are under arrest under charges of murder of Ms. Thoung.
You have the right to remain silent,
- and the right to an attorney. - It isn't me.
- No, it isn't me! - Stay still!
I couldn't have killed her even if I wanted to!
I don't even know my wife's face, so how could I kill her?
I don't even know my wife's face!
[A policeman's special good deed]
G-
Good deed?
There's no way...
[Reporter Park Jin Young]
Yes, Doctor. This is Reporter Park Jin Young.
Did you confirm the facts?
This article...
Will you be able to take responsibility for it?
I met up with that pocha owner and confirmed it with him.
He lent you money...
after taking out a loan under his own name?
Yes.
Because as soon as I bought this place,
COVID-19 broke out...
I really wanted to die, then.
I had a criminal record, so I couldn't even get a bank loan,
and I couldn't even fathom the secondary financial sector due to high-interest rates...
and yet, I needed to survive somehow...
I really wanted to die,
but Detective Geum helped me out.
He said he could get a cheap loan as a government employee.
So, I am paying him back 300,000 won every month.
It appears you were mistaken, Doctor.
Still, thanks to you,
I got to write up a heartwarming article first time in a while.
Thank you.
No.
There's definitely something wrong with this.
I will check for myself.
[News article on Detective Geum]
Angel of good deeds!
Hey, you should take us out to celebrate being in the news.
Detective Geum, congrats!
Such an angel!
Detective, congratulations!
- Oh, come on, no need for that. - Congratulations.
All right, I'll treat you guys!
Okay!
Have a good day.
[Yi Na's mom]
Hello.
- You're on the news. - Oh, you saw?
I don't have the time to receive your compliments right now, Noonim.
I am about to die from getting swept away under a compliment tsunami-
Are you in your right mind?
What is it now?
Why would you do something like that?
What are you going to do if he doesn't pay you back?
Are you going to take over the debt, then?
Forget it. He's been paying me back promptly.
Do you have any guarantees that he will continue to do so?
It's like that, and that's how you end up getting everything dumped on you.
Why are you so negative?
Look here. We're divorced.
Whether I lend someone money or wipe my butt with it,
what's it to you?
If you have money to act like you're kind, use it to send Yi Na to another after-school academy.
Buy her another set of outfit!
How could you be like that? Why are you trying to seem so nice?
That's why you always get taken advantage of!
What did you say?
I don't think that's something for you to say.
You were the one who backstabbed me the hardest.
[My love, Yi Na]
I'm getting a call from Yi Na. Hang up.
Yeah, Yi Na.
Oh, my.
Hey-
Why is he so naive? Gosh, I can't stand this!
I should be holding tightly onto him next to me...
Hello.
No, don't flirt with him.
You can't complicate your life anymore.
No! No.
I need to keep it in. I need to pull myself together...
[No parking or standing] [Towing zone]
What is this!
There's nothing wrong with what Mom said.
You got a loan and lent it to him?
That is going way too overboard.
That will be 5,200 won.
Your daughter can't eat the globe jelly because she's missing 200 won.
Forget it. Hang up.
- Take this one out for me. - Here.
Pay me back 2 million won after 10 years.
- You'll see me even after 10 years? - Then you're not?
I am going to see you for the rest of my life.
What are you saying?
Yeah.
That was me overdoing it.
Geez.
[Neuroscience Team]
Detective Geum!
You came.
I saw the article. How did you do something like that...
You are amazing!
Oh, no, it's nothing!
- I just felt so bad for his situation, - so I couldn't just sit idly by.
Most people do just that, though.
[Unread messages]
Geez, I don't know why everyone is making such a fuss about this...
I guess you've done a lot of good deeds.
They should've made it public sooner...
Oh, right.
You didn't give out the original report, right?
Unfortunately, no. It wasn't me.
Wasn't it the pocha owner?
No.
He said the reporter came after being tipped off by a co-worker.
A co-worker?
I'm curious about who it is.
How about you ask the reporter?
Damn you.
I know what you did.
You should get over here right now.
Fight me! Like a man.
He knew?
That I was trying to publicly shame him?
Fight?
How dare he say something he wouldn't be able to handle?
He's here!
All right, the one you've been so curious about...
He's the one who tipped off the reporter!
We heard from the reporter that you tipped him off about Detective Geum's good deed.
Thanks to you,
to celebrate getting my face on the news, I was treating everyone to a meal.
How could I leave you out when you were the main reason this happened, Brain Doctor?
If I called you in to eat together, you wouldn't come. So I provoked you a bit.
Wasn't I right? I told you if I provoked him, he'd run right over.
Well, you let Detective Geum's good deed known far and wide,
and you two worked together well to solve a case.
The two of you are a fantastic duo.
The fantastic duo of our police station!
Oh, right! A duo!
Should we make today our first day as a couple?
Geez, he's not responding to my joke and making me look like a fool.
Just be grateful I didn't throw a fist at you.
You two should take a pic together.
Oh, yes, yes! That sounds good.
- Damn you! - Whoa!
Hey!
You guys eat up.
I hate greasy food.
Hey!
Why did you fall over this way!
It's dry black bean noodles, but there's no black bean sauce!
You eat the dry black bean noodles!
Why are you yelling at me!
It's that bastard who pushed me!
You discriminate between people so much!
How do you eat black bean noodles without black bean sauce?
Just eat the spicy seafood noodles!
Hey, Brain Doctor!
Hold up for a bit.
What is it now?
I don't do things like apologizing.
No. There's another case.
Let's go together. I do have things to ask you anyway.
I'm not interested.
You're not going to atone for your sins?
On the news, you rambled on about atoning for your sin and donating your talents.
Oh, right. You're full of shit, right?
Think however you want.
Man, I have so many things to ask you, though.
I'm not in the mood to take any questions.
The suspect says he doesn't know his wife's face!
He lived with her for three years, and yet he doesn't know her face!
He's even had a child with her.
Does it make sense that he doesn't even know his wife's face?
Gosh, he's just so excited, isn't he?
Brain Doctor, aren't you afraid?
Why would I be afraid?
Looks like the body was burned intentionally to prevent identification.
The cause of death was strangulation asphyxia.
Seeing how no soot was found in the respiratory tract or the lungs,
she was burned after her death.
A twenty-something-year-old.
A Vietnamese woman.
She worked in a place that deals with wood, such as a furniture factory.
Wow, you're very astute in observation.
You're like a detective.
I'd be better than most detectives.
I caught all of that, too.
I just couldn't say anything because I felt queasy.
He burned her face and her hands,
but apparently, he forgot about the ID in her bag.
[Foreigner Registration Card - Name: Nguyen Tan Thoung] Thoung...
She really is a Vietnamese woman.
Have you confirmed her identity?
We couldn't check her fingerprints, so we did a DNA test.
It matches the DNA from a piece of hair found at her home.
We just have to check with the family of the deceased.
Oh, this is the victim's unni.
Her husband was unable to recognize his wife's face,
so her unni came in to check instead.
Come this way.
It is her!
Thoung...
Wow, so pretty!
- Is she the victim's baby? - Yes.
After the husband is arrested, the victim's unni takes care of her.
You said her husband is the suspect?
Yes. We fought.
We had a huge fight, and she left, saying we should get divorced
because of money.
Come on, give me money!
My mom and dad need money!
She kept demanding that I give her money to send to her parents.
I mean, I made a promise when we got married,
but I couldn't help it because we were struggling financially due to COVID-19.
Ever since then, she started looking down on me and would go to her friend's house on a whim.
She has a close friend at the factory named Hwa Yi.
I waited for her, then went to the factory to pick her up.
But I just could not recognize my wife from among them.
So I just came back home.
Honestly,
even if I wanted to beat and kill her, I'd have to recognize her face to kill her.
How could I kill her when I don't even know her face?
Nowadays, I don't even recognize my child's face...
and I get confused about my own face.
How could such an idiot like me kill anyone?
I see.
We get it, so please calm down.
Just give me a sec.
All right.
So, where were we?
I said that I was an idiot who didn't even know his wife's face.
Are you able to recognize who I am?
Aren't you the detective?
This is quite severe...
Seeing how you can't distinguish between ugly Detective Geum and good-looking me.
Is there a drama you enjoy watching these days?
I don't watch dramas.
Actually, I can't.
All these people come out and talk on screen,
but this person seems like that person.
It's so confusing that I have no idea what's going on.
Okay.
I'm confident that you, Lee Jong Goo,
have prosopagnosia.
[Hankuk University Hospital]
Here.
The lower occipital lobe, area of the brain responsible for facial recognition.
You see how the fusiform has atrophied? [Fusiform: short for Fusiform Gyrus]
It is as I had said.
He has prosopagnosia. [Prosopagnosia: a disorder that severely hinders facial recognition]
It is typically called facial recognition disorder.
It is an ailment that prevents people from recognizing people's faces.
It is a result that supports Mr. Lee Jong Goo's testimony.
[Seobu Police Station]
You are not completely cleared from being a suspect.
Please cooperate with our investigation whenever we need it.
Yes, I understand.
How could he love someone and get married
when he can't even recognize her face?
It is possible.
Was your ex-wife your ideal type?
I probably married her because she was.
All right, let's go inside, and I'll teach you one tidbit of neuroscience common sense.
Here.
Which of these two is your ideal type?
Well...
I don't think either one is my ideal type.
These ladies probably wouldn't like you, either.
Just hurry up and choose one.
Why are you so harsh when I was just joking?
This one.
Okay.
As expected, you and I have different eyes.
Wow, well, that's a relief.
I suppose we won't have any reason to fight over a woman, then.
Do you think you could compete with me?
I just diagnosed your illness.
Megalomania.
It appears I caught it from someone else.
That's a contagious disease, right?
Don't be bullshitting* me. (Sounds like contagious disease)
You should just answer me.
Why is she your ideal type?
Her face is round
and she looks nice.
She's petite and looks virtuous,
and she seems intelligent as well.
In any case, she seems to be closer to my ideal type.
What's with your smirk?
The photo you chose as your ideal type was
this one.
I marked it like this.
What!
No way.
Wait!
It's not!
I-It was her for sure!
In 2010, researchers at New York University in the US conducted this experiment.
Surprisingly, 90% of the test subjects couldn't recognize that their chosen photo was switched.
This is what we call choice blindness. [Choice blindness: inability to sense that one's choice was not granted]
What is more fascinating is that
they would give several reasons for their choice after seeing the switched photo,
just like you-know-who.
I was being honest.
You know, our brains
make things up when we are asked why.
Why do you like alcohol?
It's because my stress is totally relieved.
Why did you decide to join the police?
To realize justice in our society.
Why did you marry that woman?
Because I loved her.
The answers that came to your mind...
Most of that was made up by your brain.
Human beings are sad creatures who can't recognize their own self-deception.
Well, then,
what was the reason that I married that woman?
That was decided by an unknown something deep in your brain.
So, don't do anything like marriage ever again.
Since your brain is like that,
it will make you choose someone like your ex again.
This guy...
You're so diverse in your scare tactics.
The results from her call records are out!
We found another suspect.
[Suspect's Personal Info - Name: Tran Thi Hoai]
Hoai, 29 years old.
She is the best friend of the victim that Lee Jong Goo mentioned.
She is currently in the country illegally.
While she was working at the factory,
she was staying at the shipping container where the victim died.
After the incident, her phone was turned off, and is unable to be reached.
What about the people around her?
She has a boyfriend.
[Suspect Personal Info - Name: Huynh Van Loc] He is also Vietnamese,
and he was the first person to discover the body.
There wasn't anything suspicious during the initial testimony,
but he is refusing to cooperate when we asked him to come in again.
According to the owner of the business, he suddenly disappeared.
It appears he ran away because he was an illegal immigrant.
Even if he ran away, he probably fled to his community.
I'll go catch him and bring him in.
You do know that the illegal immigrant community neighborhood is full of crime, right?
- Will you be okay by yourself? - I'll be fine.
I have many years of experience as a homicide detective.
Let's go together.
Gosh, Brain Doctor, you're suspiciously trying so hard.
Everything I do, I try my best.
Although a tax thief like you wouldn't understand that.
Please let everyone know how hard I work
- to provide justice for the victim. - Of course.
Wow, making your appeal even at this moment?
- You're quite daebak, really. - Oh, right.
I also have something to tell you while we're headed there.
- When you say hello? - Xin chào.
When you want to say it's nice to see you to a man?
- Thằng điên. - What about to a woman?
- Chó cái điên. - What about when you want to lift the mood?
Đụm...
Đụ má mày, Đụ má mày!
Okay. You know it well.
But would this work?
The fastest way to lower a foreigner's guard is by speaking their native language.
The brain is wired to respond quickest to its native language.
Wow, as expected of Brain Doctor.
Wow. But...
your character is inconsistent.
You said you were going to chew me up into pieces before,
but then you spread the news about my good deed and got me praised,
added 1.5 points to my evaluation, and even tell me things like this.
Oh, Brain Doctor, you're that!
The type of guy that women like.
Tsundere*! (Cold on the surface, but caring on the inside)
Do you see goosebumps?
My brain just felt fear.
You see, you're being so rough.
You're quite attractive.
The charm isn't there for you to enjoy,
so why don't you shut your mouth.
You're not going to get out?
Why do I need to get out?
Then why did you follow me?
Whoa, he really flips back and forth.
You truly have multiple personalities.
Goodness.
Xin chào.
Xin chào! Xin chào! Xin chào!
Thằng điên.
Chó cái điên.
Đụ má mày.
Đụ má mày. Đụ má mày!
What?
Do you want to die?
Crazy bitch?
Homeless bastard?
Damn that f***ing son of a bitch.
- What? F***ing? - No, no, I wasn't talking to you!
Ouch!
Ow! F***! I wasn't talking to you!
It's not like that!
You, f***ing Brain Doctor!
Help me! Help me, Brain Doctor!
Help me!
If there was something like prostitution, it would have been perfect...
It's not like that!
I told you, it's not like that!
I told you!
You son of a bitch!
Get out, you jerk!
- Are you playing with me right now? - How regretful.
I should have taught you something more severe.
- It was a bit too light. - You bastard!
What? Why?
Shit!
So embarrassing! I'm going nuts!
Geez.
You know that this is your fault, right?
Geez!
I thought to screw with you for the sake of keeping my character consistent.
- You don't like it? - Geez, I really ought to...
I'm letting you off because I don't have enough hands.
Gosh, seriously!
Tissue.
Tissue!
Gosh...
This moron taught me those curse words.
You should have beat this guy up, not me.
I didn't know.
I thought you were really cursing at us.
I'm sorry.
- If you're sorry, then let it out*. - Let it out? (Sounds like "blow" in Korean)
Yeah, hurry up and let it out!
Gosh, not like that!
Geez. Seriously!
Loc.
Tell me where he is.
I don't know.
I really don't know.
I swear!
You're lying.
Your eyes just moved up toward the left.
According to neuroscience, you are lying.
It is not...
a lie...
Hey! Gosh.
Hey, catch him! Catch him!
What are you doing! Catch him!
Hey! Wait!
Stop right there!
Gosh!
Geez!
Hey. Hey!
Wait a minute!
Why is he so fast?
Hey! What the!
I got you now!
Whoa!
Hey, you!
You!
Hey, come here.
That bastard...
- Shit. - Goodness.
Hey!
What the? Hey!
Gosh. He's pulling all the stops.
Let's stop this. Okay?
I got beat up by your friends
so I'm hurting all over and can't follow you up there.
I don't know anything! I don't know.
Okay. Just come down and talk.
Hey, you can't even c-climb higher from there, you asshole!
Hey, seriously.
Hey! Don't be like that and get hit by this!
- This really hurts! - Just shoot me then.
I don't want to get forcibly deported. I need to earn money!
We can talk about that later.
Loc, you bastard!
I'm really going to shoot!
One,
two,
two and a half,
two and three quarters...
Hey!
Hey, Loc, are you okay?
You're not hurt?
Wow, this is stronger than I expected.
Are you crazy? Are you nuts?
What are you doing!
You asked me to catch him.
Why are you getting mad at me when I helped you catch him?
Wow, I don't have enough hands again.
I held myself back twice.
I'm not going to hold back anymore.
Get up.
Goodness...
That night, I got this message.
[Hoai]
Sorry. I'm going to leave in secret.
Don't look for me.
I think maybe Hoai did it.
Were there any problems between the two of them?
Because of money...
Thoung told Hoai to pay her back the money she lent her.
She said she was going to divorce her husband
and get a room,
so she told her to pay back her money.
So,
they fought.
[Witnesses who saw Hoai came in]
The witnesses were three high schoolers who lived near the factory.
Oh, that's her! This woman.
Why don't we do that together?
She was walking so fast, so we looked, thinking she might be exercising.
- Oh, right! The pink color. - Yeah!
Based on the students' testimony, we were able to guess her route
and the results of the CCTV show her escaping the neighborhood on foot.
She didn't even ride a car, so she won't leave any trace.
Dig through the CCTV footage to figure out where she went.
Yes, sir.
I guess the time for major eye pain has come again...
Good luck.
Team Captain Seol, you should also do your pay's worth.
Not just sit there and take credit while others do the work.
Oh, yes...
You do know that the team captain's pay is higher, right?
If you can't prove your worth,
then just get married.
- Go and tell your husband- - Chief?
Will you be able to take responsibility for those words?
Do you give Team Captain Seol's pay, Chief?
If not, those words are perfect for a lawsuit.
- A lawsuit? - Oh, Chief...
You can't say things like that nowadays...
I'm just saying.
Gosh, I can't say anything these days...
Gosh, why is he like that?
Team Captain, you can't just sit there and take it.
You should just headbutt him one day!
Pretending to be crazy!
If she was able to do that,
why would she keep living victimized like this?
A timid brain like Team Captain's responds sensitively to stress.
Even for the slightest things that others aren't affected by, it gets stressed.
In these moments, the sympathetic nerves are activated, and cortisol hormones are increased.
And thus, her heart rate speeds up, and she gets cold sweats,
and her face gets red easily.
You're like a fortune teller.
Then what should I do?
There is only one way.
You would need to modify your brain.
Would that be possible?
It's not easy.
And that's why there's only one conclusion.
You should just live the way you are.
Well, then.
What did he say?
Is he freaking kidding me?
Team Captain, d-d-don't cry...
T-T-That...
Gosh, that bastard.
He always screws it up at the end! Really!
All right.
All right, you should eat up and cheer up! My treat.
To celebrate the article on me.
No, I will pay for it.
But in return, tell me honestly.
Regarding work, by chance,
do you have any difficulties because of me?
No, I don't!
Chief knows it, too.
If you weren't good at your job, would he have put you in charge of the team?
But why is Chief acting like that, then?
I don't know...
You know how he's spent so many years out on the field.
So perhaps he somewhat looks down on internal office work.
Since a long time ago, he would always say things like,
"We are out toiling on the field
while you guys are just sitting around on your butts."
He said those things without any ill intent,
so you should let it go.
It seems like he hates me even more these days.
I don't know what I should do...
Geez, his temper was always fiery,
but the way he barks and lashes out these days...
I find it a bit strange, too.
- Does he have a problem at home? - I suppose...
it would be frustrating for him to look at me as a third party.
Even I hate my personality.
Oh? Me, too.
Why would you, Detective Geum? You're well-known for your great personality.
Come on. That's if you put it nicely.
Honestly, I'm just a sucker.
Why am I living like a soft-hearted sucker?
- I get so frustrated with myself so often. - Me, too.
You know people who live however they feel like.
You know, people like that Brain Doctor...
I am sometimes jealous of them.
Me, too!
I would like to live like that once, even if I have to modify my brain.
That probably won't be possible in this life, right?
Probably not...
Shin Ha Ru!
W-What is this?
Brain tissue.
You don't think I know that?
I'm asking why this is here. Where did you get it?
No comment.
There's no way...
By chance, did you get that from the research lab?
Is that really-
No comment.
If you make me say "no comment" one more time,
I will prohibit you from entering my place.
I will change my passcode and phone number. Everything.
This is my research lab for now.
I would like for you to not drop by whenever you feel like it.
I don't need to eat...
I mean,
I can eat perfectly fine by myself, so worry.
Ha Ru, that...
Of course, you should also not get involved with my research.
Everything you've seen here is off the record.
You understand even if I don't say it, right?
We'll talk about this later.
- You- - Drive safely.
Team Captain! You're doing well!
Don't get discouraged,
and don't be upset about it, either!
Aigoo!
- I'm sorry. - Oh, no, it's fine!
Oh, I mean... that's not it...
[Yi Na's mom]
- A call... - Aigoo...
What is it!
Gosh, enough of your drinking! Drinking!
Hurry up and go home! Yi Na is by herself.
Okay, okay.
What's with that quiver in his voice?
What's going on? Are you with a woman, by chance?
Forget it!
Whatever I'm up to, don't bother.
Geez.
- I said... I said I'd pay for it... - No.
No, you're running late because of me.
I need to run by the office for something. Goodbye.
Get home safe!
Seeing how no soot was found in the respiratory tract or the lungs,
she was burned after her death.
A twenty-something-year-old. A Vietnamese woman.
Even if I wanted to beat and kill her, I'd have to recognize her face to kill her.
Lee Jong Goo has prosopagnosia.
[Suspect's Personal Info - Name: Tran Thi Hoai] Hoai, 29 years old.
She is the best friend of the victim.
She has a boyfriend.
[Suspect Personal Info - Name: Huynh Van Loc] He was the first person to discover the body.
[Hoai] Thoung told Hoai to pay her back the money she lent her.
So, they fought.
Not just sit there and take credit while others do the work.
[Temporarily closed]
[Team Captain Seol]
Yes, Team Captain.
Could you give me Lee Jong Goo's phone number?
I discovered something strange!
I called him to check something, but he's not picking up.
A nail impaled her forehead?
Yes, it just so happened that there was a nail in the piece of wood.
Then what's happening to her?
Did she hurt her head?
This is the nail that impaled Patient Seol So Jeong's forehead.
The removal went well.
It was really fortunate that the nail was narrow.
Based on the MRI scans, there doesn't appear to be any issues with her brain,
but the problem is that she isn't able to regain consciousness.
It could be a temporary symptom from the shock.
We should watch and wait for a while.
[Seobu Police Station]
Right,
did you get in contact with Lee Jong Goo?
Yes, he said he was out cold after drinking,
so he couldn't pick up the Team Captain's call.
He said he would come to the police station if we needed him.
Exactly what did she find out?
Man, this is so frustrating.
I can't ask someone lying unconscious in bed...
What is it? Did you come up with a good idea?
Yes.
We can just ask Team Captain Seol.
They said she was still unconscious.
Even if she's unconscious,
she is capable of expressing her will.
Team Captain,
can you hear me?
If you want to answer yes, think about raising your right hand.
If you want to answer no, think about raising your left hand.
All right. Do you hear me?
Oh! It worked!
Okay.
Since the left side lit up,
she raised her right hand.
So she answered yes!
She can hear you.
Wow, this is daebak!
Let me say one thing, too.
Team Captain,
is this too hard on you? Should we stop this?
The right side.
She is saying no.
Wow, daebak. This is so fascinating!
Okay, Team Captain. We're going to start asking you some questions.
You said you discovered something strange at the scene of the crime?
Does it have to do with the victim's husband,
Lee Jong Goo?
No.
Does it have to do with her friend,
Hoai?
Yes.
It has to do with Hoai.
What information did you find out about Hoai?
I will call out consonants and vowels,
so if you hear a consonant and vowel, you want to answer with,
think about raising your right hand.
We will start.
G/K, N,
D, R/L,
M, B,
S, Y,
J...
Now we'll do vowels.
Ah, Ya, Eo, Yeo,
O, Yo, Woo...
Oh, Joo...
Is there a lower consonant?
There is.
G/K...
- G/K. - Jook...
Jook...
G/K, N...
Ah, Ya,
Eo...
S...
Double S...
[Jookeoss*] (Dead)
[Nyguyen Tan Thoung]
She is dead?
Hoai is dead...
Is that right?
That's right.
If Hoai is dead, then the body that was burnt...
was not Thoung,
but Hoai.
The DNA sample from Thoung's home,
and the victim's DNA was the same.
Are you saying that the National Forensic Service made a mistake?
It is not a mistake but rather a setup.
Someone placed Hoai's toothbrush and hairbrushes in Thoung's home,
in order to make it seem like Thoung died.
Gosh, the problem was that we only did a DNA test because we couldn't check for fingerprints.
Team Captain had figured this out.
So she called Thoung's husband, Lee Jong Goo, to check.
But he didn't pick up.
I suppose we have no choice but to check.
Go to Lee Jong Goo's house and obtain Thoung's DNA again, and
ask the National Forensic Service for a reassessment.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Lee Jong Goo. Mr Lee Jong Goo.
Mr. Lee Jong Goo, are you here?
Gosh, you're doing this again.
You can't just go barging in like that.
I held back twice already.
I warned you.
Why are you fussing around even when I'm helping you?
Go by the book.
Don't help out however you feel like.
I'm not even a policeman, so...
why do I have to follow the book for the police?
He said he distributed food ingredients,
so I guess he has something like this.
As expected, you lack imagination.
Why do you think only food ingredients are in there?
What are you imagining with your incredibly imaginative mind?
After that day, Thoung also disappeared without a trace.
Don't you find that strange?
What are you doing, not going inside?
Wait...
Are you going to run away after putting me inside?
That's a good idea.
Here...
- Let's go inside together. - Aigoo, you're a detective...
How could you be such a scaredy-cat?
Whoa, this reminds me of the Pocheon rubber barrel murder case.
The culprit had nicely packed the corpses of her husband and his lover into a barrel.
Why did you get scared?
A frozen pollack instead of a dead body.
I got frightened from disappointment.
Gosh, you're playing around at a time like this.
What is this!
You're not playing around right now, right?
Geez!
What's this!
What the...
Damn it!
Hey!
Anyone out there!
Hey! There's someone in here!
Hey!
There's- Damn it...
The thermostat is outside. It's outside.
Let's make a phone call, whether it is 911 or the office.
I think we'll need to use yours, Brain Doctor.
I'm on 2% battery.
I think it'll die if I make the call.
- My phone is in the car. - Damn it...
This is going to drive me nuts.
Where should I call? Our police station?
911?
[Chief Kim]
Chief, I was just about to call you...
Hello?
[Geum Myung Se]
Hello?
What's this...
"I was just about to"?
I see, he was just about to head back.
He's on his way, I see.
Gosh.
Help me!
One phrase would've done it. Why say such a useless thing?
I mean, well...
I'll start doing that right now.
Help me!
Please rescue us!
- Help me! - Geez...
Okay.
Gosh, I don't think it's going to work...
I think it would be best not to mess with it...
Instead of thinking about it, let's try one more experiment.
That's my motto.
I'm going for it.
One,
two,
three!
Did you see the importance of making an attempt?
Oh, no, no!
Geez...
Gosh.
Gosh, damn it.
This is not a laboratory!
Geez! Seriously!
Why don't you look for another frozen pollack instead of yelling?
There is nothing. No matter how much we look,
that was the only thing that would fit there.
Lee Jong Goo is probably here by now.
Mr. Lee Jong Goo!
Is anyone outside?
Please save us!
Help!
Lee Jong Goo!
Help me!
Damn it.
Mr. Lee Jong Goo!
Save us, Lee Jong Goo!
Mr. Lee Jong Goo!
Mr. Lee Jong Goo.
Stop.
If I hear the sound of someone pounding on a door, I get a headache.
You won't die from a headache.
Although you might freeze to death.
Mr. Lee Jong Goo!
Save us!
Open the door!
Stop!
I told you to stop!
Stop it!
I told you to stop!
I warned you, I won't hold back!
Whose fault is it that things ended up like this!
Do you think I'm a fool just because I let you off a few times, you asshole!
Shit!
Damn it!
Damn you.
All right, let's really go then, you bastard!
Seriously.
Geez...
Wait. Time out.
Wait...
who are you exactly?
Are you really a doctor?
A police detective should know...
how to fight better than that...
So...
why are you making such a fuss about it?
Why does your head hurt?
If I knew, you think I'd be hurting?
When did it start?
Ever since kindergarten.
After a car accident.
It's a form of trauma.
Trauma?
[The Reason I Committed Murder] I read your manuscript.
Thank you.
So our publishing company
will not publish your book.
Of course, it wouldn't be easy to release an autobiography of a murderer.
- And so I thought about it, and- - No.
It's not entertaining.
With something like this, it won't attract much attention.
A doctor who murdered a patient with medication...
It lacks impact.
Now, if you had done something like eat human flesh,
or something new, then maybe...
Eating human flesh, you say...
That's great advice.
It's almost time for her to leave school.
Sunlight Kindergarten.
Mountain Bird Class,
Kim Yoo Jeong.
I noticed in her picture that
your daughter looked soft and tender...
and pretty.
This crazy old man!
W-What's this... Did you do a background check on me?
I also know that you have an affair with a female employee at your company,
and that your wife is battling cancer.
Before I eat her,
I will tell your daughter.
"You are being slaughtered and eaten because of the rash words
of your despicable hypocrite of a father."
Y-You crazy bastard!
Damn it!
Warden!
Warden! I said let me out!
This guy is trying to kill my daughter!
Open the door!
Warden!
I despise disrespect even more than murder.
Yes, I'll take that to heart.
- Look for another publishing company. - Yes, sir.
Oh, right.
What about the letter?
I sent it.
It should have arrived.
There are still people who send handwritten letters these days?
[Hwang Dong Woo]
Hwang Dong Woo?
Yeah, Ji Hyung.
- Yeah, go ahead. - I just had something to ask you.
Do you remember that man named Hwang Dong Woo?
He's the doctor who went to jail for serial murder, right?
I'm not sure.
Was he?
You know, the guy who murdered those patients...
Oh, Dr. Shin. I'm sorry, but I'm getting an urgent call that I need to take...
Oh, then take the call...
Okay, let's talk on the phone again later.
[Dr. Shin Ji Hyung]
[Ha Ru]
[Recipient Shin Ha Ru]
[Sender Hwang Dong Woo]
- The call is not going through. You'll be connected to... - Why isn't he picking up his phone?
[Ha Ru]
I wonder what he's up to these days...
Gosh. Seriously!
Geez, I'm going to die from exhaustion before I freeze to death.
Meditation is best for regulating your body temperature.
The reason Tibetan monks can live in temperatures tens of degrees below freezing
wearing kasayas with one arm exposed is...
I guess you are still lacking experience.
Is it because you're a fake monk?
I can't concentrate because of you!
Hey, Brain Doctor. Instead of doing useless things,
let's achieve symbiosis. Symbiosis.
There's exactly one way.
Come here. Hug me.
If you lay a hand on my body,
I'll kill you.
Gosh...
Stop rubbing yourself against me.
If you cross the line, I'll kill you.
Maybe it's because your mouth is frozen,
but your words are quite curt and lack honorifics.
Maybe it's because your brain is frozen,
but your words are coarse.
Don't be like that.
We might spend the last moments of our lives together...
Don't say such negative things...
My body temperature is going to drop.
What would people say when they discover us later
and see that we died holding each other like this?
The thought makes my skin crawl.
Get away from me.
Get away from me...
Geez...
Something's really warm...
I told you not to rub against me...
I told you not to rub against me.
Damn it!
♫ Your voice comforts me ♫
♫ When your dreams and my hopes are almost forgotten ♫
♫ We remember each other on different paths ♫
[Brain Works]
I think Dad likes someone.
There's something about hugging him that felt good.
- Brain Doctor! - Do you want your hand chopped off?
- What you wanted has happened. - Scared me!
A brain modification.
He was found to be a prime suspect.
Their brains will tell us who the culprit is.
I found out why his personality became so crooked.
Turns out he carries much pain.
He's a wicked man.
Either he will commit suicide or become a murderer.
A face-to-face showdown.
I will find the evidence one day...
no matter what.
