Ji Hyun, over here.
Why did you take a photo of this man?
I was hired to do it! I was told to take those photos!
You were hired?
Who hired you?
I knew it. Kim Jung Woo was the culprit.
Why...
are these photos here?
Young Min, why are your pictures here?
Then...
the culprit who killed my mother...
Ji Hyun, what's wrong?
I don't know.
My body feels weird.
Over here! Please come and take a look at my daughter!
- Get me 1mg of Ativan. - Okay.
Is she all right?
Yes.
She's stabilized for now.
Are you okay, Ji Hyun?
Yes. I think I'm okay now.
What are these pictures?
I asked you a question.
That's the question we want to ask you.
You still don't think Kim Jung Woo is the culprit?
No. Never!
I've never seen these pictures before.
You've never seen them before?
Yes. They weren't here before.
I cleaned this room the day before I died.
When I was cleaning the room,
those pictures weren't here.
Then who put...
these pictures here if not Kim Jung Woo?
How would I know that?
Anyway, it couldn't have been him. Jung Woo isn't the culprit.
Please believe me.
I should call the police first.
Mr. Seo Young Min?
It's you, right?
Why are you...
coming out of there?
Well...
(Delivery Man)
(Episode 9)
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
You have the right to an attorney.
(911 Rescue Squad)
Mr. Seo.
You keep popping up at weird places.
Don't look at him like that.
Let's go.
Yes.
I saw Seo Young Min coming out of Kim Jung Woo's studio.
I called the police, and they arrested him.
Okay.
What a pervert.
Why did he have these pictures taken and collect them too?
Well, it's certain that Kim Jung Woo is...
the culprit now.
By the way,
why was Seo Young Min here?
This way.
Go inside.
(Holding Cell 2)
I'm sorry, Young Min.
Why are you sorry?
You ended up in a holding cell like this because of me.
I'm fine.
Nonsense. How could you be fine?
If I were alive...
If I were a human, not a ghost,
I could have helped you as a detective.
I can't do anything for you right now.
I feel so pathetic.
I didn't commit any crimes.
I didn't do anything wrong.
Since I didn't do anything wrong, nothing will happen to me.
I will be released soon.
I'm really fine.
Look.
I get to be with...
my girlfriend whom I dearly love even in a holding cell. Who else...
could possibly do that?
I bet I'm the only one.
How can you crack a joke now?
As long as I'm with you,
I'll be okay even in purgatory.
You won't be?
Same here.
(Raise the awareness of security together for a happy country.)
I can't believe this.
What brings you here?
Well, where's Seo Young Min?
Young Min, what's going on?
Well, it's a complicated story to explain everything.
I think there was a misunderstanding.
Hey, what can we do for you?
Should we file a petition to get you released?
Right. Let's do that!
"Seo Young Min is a young man..."
"who's diligent and kind."
"He would never commit a crime."
We can stamp our seal and sign it too.
Thanks for the thought.
But it's all right.
I didn't do anything wrong. And I'll get released soon too.
So don't worry too much.
Right. Seok Jin.
Yes. Go ahead. I'll do anything you ask.
Can you not tell my grandma about it?
I don't want her to worry.
By the way, she'll figure out something is wrong...
when you don't come home.
Right!
Let's tell her you're driving a tourist from abroad exclusively.
So he can't come home for a couple of days.
Nice.
- She'll believe that. - Right.
Hey, I'll cover for you to your grandma.
Thanks, Seok Jin.
(Eun Soo)
- Hey, Eun Soo. - Hello, Ms. Park.
You've been well, right?
Ma'am, this is Seok Jin. Have you been well?
Of course.
I hope things have been good with you two as well.
Yes, they have.
Ma'am, we called to tell you...
that Young Min wouldn't be coming home for a few days.
He went out of the city to drive around a customer from abroad.
That was sudden.
He didn't tell me about that.
Okay. I should call him.
No, ma'am.
You see,
when we drive a customer from abroad exclusively,
we're not supposed to accept personal calls. That's our rule.
There was a rule like that?
Of course.
The customer from abroad...
won't be able to understand Korean.
So it's not polite.
Right, ma'am.
He probably turned off his phone...
- to be polite. - Right.
So even if he doesn't come home for a few days,
you have nothing to worry about. He told us...
to relay this message to you.
I see.
Right.
When young kids talked to each other in front of me in the subway,
I didn't seem to understand the things they said.
And I did wonder if they were talking about me.
Right.
Ma'am, don't worry.
Young Min will call you soon.
- Okay. - Bye.
(Vacant)
That's good.
They don't have any evidence that can connect you to the culprit.
So don't be scared.
The door of the studio must have been locked.
How did you get inside?
Tell him it was open.
It was open.
It was open?
- Yes. - The flyer.
Tell him the magnetic paper flyer of a Chinese restaurant...
was stuck in the door.
The magnetic paper flyer of a Chinese restaurant was stuck.
That must've been why the door didn't lock.
Let's say I believe you.
Mr. Seo,
why did you go to Nurse Kim Jung Woo's studio?
Didn't I tell you that...
I was going to find the hit-and-run driver that killed my mom?
I suspected Nurse Kim.
What made you suspect him?
A while ago, he attempted to hurt people with a knife.
Tell him you heard it from So Ri.
A while ago, he attempted to hurt people with a knife at the hospital.
The nurse in the ER, Yoon So Ri, is my friend.
So Ri told me that...
Nurse Kim stole some drugs from the hospital...
and was fired.
He seemed suspicious even before that incident.
Doesn't he live in Moroso Studio?
And my mother died in the hit-and-run accident.
I found him suspicious in many ways.
So I went to see him.
I saw Seo Young Min coming out of Kim Jung Woo's studio.
I called the police,
and they arrested him.
(Dr. Do Gyu Jin)
(Holding Cell 2)
Ji Hyun,
did you also chase culprits,
arrest them, and interrogate them...
just like those detectives?
Probably. Right?
That's cool.
I wanted to be a police officer too.
I was preparing to take the exam.
No wonder. You were pretty good at thinking like a detective.
But why did you quit?
I didn't quit.
I put it on hold for now.
After my mother died,
I had to pay back the debt.
I see.
You can go now.
Are you releasing me?
According to the NFS' investigation,
the victim we found in Kim Jung Woo's studio...
died over a week ago.
We didn't find your fingerprints...
on the ampoule or the syringe.
- Your charge has been clear. - See?
I told you Young Min had nothing to do with this.
And a while ago,
we found a motorcycle,
a helmet, and gloves bikers wear around Moroso Studio.
We checked the DNA of the hair we found in the helmet.
It's been confirmed that it belonged to Kim Jung Woo.
We believe that Kim Jung Woo...
is the culprit behind this series of cases.
Are you telling me that my mother's hit-and-run accident...
and Detective Kang Ji Hyun's murder case...
were Kim Jung Woo's doing?
It is too early to make that conclusion now.
But it's likely that he's the culprit.
Kim Jung Woo.
Ask him if they caught Kim Jung Woo.
Did you...
catch him?
Not yet.
However, we will put him on the national wanted list soon.
I understand what you must be going through now.
But you're not a police officer.
You can't go around looking for the culprit on your own.
We're doing our best to find him too.
Please trust us and let us handle it.
I wish they catch Kim Jung Woo soon.
He's on the wanted list now. They'll catch him soon.
Isn't this...
you in the picture?
(Police Day)
Mr. Seo Young Min?
People might think you're my boyfriend.
(Beloved and Respected Dongpa Police)
Dad, you look dashing.
I think you look much cooler than me.
Of course, I'm your daughter.
You guys make a nice police officer family.
Gosh, thank you.
- I'll take the picture now. - Okay.
In 1, 2, 3.
(Police Day)
Detective Kang Hyung Soo...
must have been your father.
Dad...
Dad!
He was my dad.
Ji Hyun.
That man...
That man was my dad.
Do you feel a little calmer now?
I didn't even recognize my dad.
I'm so pathetic, aren't I?
That's because you lost your memories.
It's not your fault.
So don't blame yourself too much.
Have all your memories come back now?
No.
I only remember the day...
that I took a photo with my dad.
If you go to your house, you'll be able to remember...
a lot more memories.
Let's go there together.
So... Young Min.
You can't...
tell my dad that I'm with you.
If my dad finds out...
that I've become a ghost and wandering this world,
I think he would be too sad.
Okay.
I won't tell him.
Thank you.
So this is my house.
Are you ready?
I'm nervous.
Let's go.
You really came.
Dad.
May I come inside for a minute?
As I told you over the phone,
I have something to tell you about Detective Kang Ji Hyun.
Come in.
This is all me.
But I can't remember anything.
You can take your time...
and remember them...
one by one.
What did you say?
Oh, it's nothing.
Have a seat.
- Have some coffee. - Thank you.
Dad.
Have you been well?
How did you know that I was Detective Kang Ji Hyun's dad?
I found out from the police recruitment poster.
That you were a loving pair of father and daughter detectives.
I see.
So, you have something to tell me about my daughter, Ji Hyun?
- Yes. - What is it?
My mother, Kim Jin Sook, who used to be a taxi driver,
passed away...
in front of Moroso Studio in a motorcycle hit-and-run...
on April 12.
You're that taxi driver's son?
That's right.
I heard that Detective Kang Ji Hyun also passed away that day.
Is that true?
My Ji Hyun...
also died that day.
My mother and Detective Kang...
had built a relationship...
as she served as a taxi cop.
Oh, and this...
Here.
So that connection led me...
to become close friends with Detective Kang as well.
I see.
So what is it that you want to say?
From the beginning,
I believe that my mom's case...
is related to Detective Kang's,
and I have been investigating both cases at once.
Of course, I've only been doing so on my own.
I heard that Nurse Kim Jung Woo of Deahun Medical Center...
is the leading suspect in both cases.
I'm also aware.
But I was doubtful about something.
You were doubtful?
The pictures from the studio didn't belong to Kim Jung Woo.
They weren't there in the first place.
Honestly,
there isn't any clear evidence.
That's why I came to see you.
I wanted to know how things were...
at the time of Detective Kang Ji Hyun's death.
Detective Kang...
How did she die?
I'm sorry,
but I can't trust you yet.
Please give me some time to think.
Yes, I understand.
What's this?
Were you still awake?
The thing is...
My dad.
How hard would it have been for him...
after he lost his one and only daughter?
How did he...
endure all that time? I was thinking about that.
Ji Hyun.
But I think it's really strange.
What is?
I mean me.
They say that ghosts move on to the afterlife if they fall in love.
But that doesn't seem true for me.
I found out who I am,
and I met my dad too.
So why am I still the same?
And at Kim Jung Woo's house too.
Something felt wrong about my body, so I thought I was moving on.
Can I move on to the afterlife if I catch the culprit...
and get rid of my resentment?
Ji Hyun.
Do you want to disappear so badly?
What?
Do you want to say goodbye to me so soon?
No, it's not like that...
Ji Hyun.
Today, someone came to our house.
Do you know someone named Seo Young Min?
I hear he is the son...
of Ms. Kim Jin Sook who used to be a taxi cop.
He asked if there was some relation...
between Ms. Kim's death and yours.
But you know,
I couldn't tell him that you were alive.
I couldn't...
trust him just yet.
Young Min.
I'm sorry.
I spoke too rashly yesterday.
But what I actually wanted to say wasn't...
I know too.
We need to be sure of the culprit...
in order to be sure about my mom's death too.
That way, my mom, who is probably also wandering this world somewhere,
will be able to go in peace.
And you too.
Ji Hyun, you too.
You will stop wandering this world and go on to a better place.
At first, I just liked you so much...
that I thought it would be nice for you to stay by my side forever.
But the more I think about it, the less it seems right.
The longer you stay by my side,
the harder it will be for both of us.
Our goodbye is...
already set to happen.
I know that very well. I really do.
But still,
thinking about saying goodbye to you...
was too hard.
I am...
sorry about yesterday.
No.
I should be apologizing to you.
(Moroso Studio Murder Case, Murder suspect: Kim Jung Woo)
What are you looking at so intently?
Don't you think it seems odd?
It's odd?
What do you mean?
The evidence that we found in Kim Jung Woo's studio apartment.
Don't you think they're too perfect?
Yes.
They're perfect bits of evidence that prove...
Kim Jung Woo is the culprit.
But if you were the culprit,
would you have kept these pieces of evidence at home so blatantly?
It's as if he's trying to tell the world that he's the culprit.
Couldn't it be...
that his house was the easiest and safest place to hide them?
No. Something feels off.
It's not like the puzzle is coming together perfectly.
It feels as if it's been forced to fit together.
I'm telling you, it's not Jung Woo.
He was so nice to me.
How could he be suspected of killing me?
It makes no sense.
It might be that you don't know...
that Kim Jung Woo is the culprit.
There are instances where those closest to the culprit...
don't know about the crime even more than others.
That can't be true.
When patients died at the hospital,
Jung Woo took it harder than anyone.
He would never do anything bad.
Then who do you think killed you, Mi Kyung?
I don't know that.
I wasn't in a clear state of mind because of the drugs.
Still, I was sure that it wasn't Jung Woo.
The feeling of the hand that gave me the shot...
wasn't Jung Woo's.
Let's find Kim Jung Woo first.
We must find him to be sure whether or not he's the culprit.
Then can you remember any places where Kim Jung Woo might hide?
Somewhere only he knows,
where there aren't that many people,
and where it's hidden from the outside.
There is this one place.
I came on a trip here with Jung Woo.
If you go over there, there's a big reservoir too.
We went fishing there with Nurse Kim Hee Yeon too.
Nurse Kim Hee Yeon?
Yes.
This vacation home belongs to Nurse Kim Hee Yeon.
Even if it's in a secluded area,
this kind of vacation home would cost quite a lot.
I guess Nurse Kim Hee Yeon's family is pretty well off.
Not at all.
She grew up in an orphanage.
An orphanage?
Yes.
Let's go inside first.
Young Min, you stay here for now.
Mi Kyung and I will look around inside.
Be careful.
How did he know about that place?
He wasn't here either?
No, he wasn't.
Where on earth is Kim Jung Woo?
I was hoping he'd be here.
Jung Woo used to love this place.
It didn't cost anything,
and nobody ever came here, so he could get some peace and quiet.
That was why we came here that day too.
What do you mean by "that day?"
The day of the hit-and-run accident outside our studio apartment.
A hit-and-run accident?
Yes, we came here that day.
That day was my birthday,
so we especially asked Nurse Kim Hee Yeon to rent it.
What time was that?
We came here after Jung Woo got off work at the hospital...
and after we had dinner.
So it was probably around midnight.
It was pitch black, so I felt a bit scared.
How much do you know?
Hee Yeon.
Seo Young Min just stopped by the vacation home.
(Dr. Do Gyu Jin)
I know that you didn't tell him anything.
Anyway, that's all.
Do you think...
Mi Kyung can be the culprit?
We'd be jumping to conclusions to think so.
And look how enthusiastic she is...
to help us find Jung Woo.
I feel like she's certain that Jung Woo isn't the culprit.
You're right.
There's one thing that bothers me, though.
Things were too hectic the last time...
that I had to look past it.
But it felt strange, the more I thought about it.
- What is it? - Nurse Kim Hee Yeon.
It must have been her first time...
seeing Mi Kyung's dead body.
But she didn't seem surprised at all.
As if she knew that Mi Kyung was dead.
Perhaps she's used to it...
as she's a nurse.
Still,
you can't see the dead body of someone you know...
and react that way.
Aren't people normally startled at first?
Then, you'd call the ambulance.
That means...
Hee Yeon seems suspicious.
My dad's here.
Hello.
You're...
That's all I've figured out.
How or where...
did Detective Kang die?
And what killed her?
Tell him, Dad.
Min Seo...
used to be Ji Hyun's best friend,
and she finally got pregnant.
Unfortunately, she died out of the blue...
at Deahun Medical Center.
Deahun Medical Center?
I thought it was a simple death at first.
But...
I came to witness an unknown private investigator...
taking pictures of the bereaved that were mourning.
Ji Hyun was interrogating Gu Bong, that PI,
and she found out that he's been taking pictures...
of the bereaved of Deahun Medical Center...
as a client's request.
Ji Hyun got into an accident while chasing the client.
There was evidence,
and the police had announced that Jung Woo was highly likely...
to be the perpetrator.
What is it that you're doubting?
Young Min.
Tell him what we found out.
That day...
On the day of the accident,
the culprit killed my mother and drove away,
then he abandoned Ji Hyun on the street.
They say that criminals are diligent.
He could have done it if he wanted to.
That's not it, Dad.
Jung Woo may be the culprit of the hit and run,
but he couldn't have abandoned Ji Hyun.
Because Jung Woo was somewhere else at the time.
Is that true?
We can't be assured that Jung Woo isn't the culprit.
But he couldn't have done it all by himself.
What happened?
My mother collapsed in the bathroom.
I told her to be careful!
Please save my mother.
Yes, ma'am. Calm yourself, please.
Wait here.
Ma'am, can you hear me?
But...
she has Alzheimer's disease.
Ma'am, you can hear my voice, right?
Good. At least, she's conscious.
She fell and hurt herself. Let's take an X-ray and CT scan...
to check if there are any fractures or concussion.
Mom...
Dr. Do.
Don't you remember that patient?
The lady who fell.
I'm not sure. Who is she?
Her daughter is a taxi driver.
She's also friends with Young Min.
She knows Young Min?
She was on TV as the taxi driver...
who was also a devoted daughter.
I think I saw her.
The world's most devoted daughter and taxi driver.
Yes, that's her.
She's asleep.
How is...
my mom?
We didn't find any major injuries.
But she's quite old and has a chronic disease.
We'll have to see how it goes...
for a couple of days in the hospital.
Thank you, Doctor.
Mom.
You need to wake up.
I can't live without you.
So, get better as soon as you can.
Okay?
Dr. Do.
Where are you going?
I have an appointment.
Good night, Ms. Kim.
(Emergency Medical Center)
Ms. Kim, you'll have to come and see this.
Coming.
You want me to investigate Ms. Kim Hee Yeon?
What's the reason?
Is this because she called...
the police on you last time?
That's not it.
Then...
did you find any suspicious things about her?
Tell him everything you need to.
We can't afford the tiniest doubt in an investigation.
On the day of the accident, Mr. Kim Jung Woo was...
driving through Hanju Tollgate at 11:10pm.
He was driving a rental car that night,
and I watched the dashcam footage at the rental car service.
That means...
The suspect who abandoned Detective Kang...
in front of the house...
is not...
Jung Woo, at least.
That's right.
It means that Jung Woo might have had an accomplice.
Also,
Ms. Kim Hee Yeon owns a vacation house.
What's suspicious about her vacation house?
She's...
from an orphanage,
and she graduated from nursing college...
using student loans.
Even the studio apartment she currently resides in...
is rented monthly, not owned.
Doesn't that sound odd?
Kim Hee Yeon and Kim Jung Woo...
were both nurses working at the same hospital.
And they were living in the same building on the same floor.
Also, the two were close enough to have Jung Woo often visit...
Hee Yeon's vacation house.
These facts led Young Min and me to believe...
that Hee Yeon would know Jung Woo's whereabouts.
He's right.
Hee Yeon definitely knows where Jung Woo is.
I understand, sir.
But you're putting us on the spot by investigating it by yourself.
And Mr. Seo.
I was sure that I asked you last time...
to let us investigate the case.
Can't you put yourself in Mr. Seo's shoes?
Figures.
How would you?
You don't know what it feels like to lose a beloved family member.
Chief Kang.
If something had gone wrong with Mr. Seo...
I'll be responsible for his safety,
so don't you worry about that.
Anyway,
how's the investigation on Gu Bong, the PI?
I was going to head there.
Good. I'll come with you.
Chief Kang.
You're coming, right?
Of course.
Sorry.
Hey.
What did you say?
Thank you.
I should have...
taken better care of her.
I apologize.
Why are you apologizing?
I'm well-aware that you devotedly nursed...
my mother.
My condolences to you.
Thank you so much for coming.
You're here, Young Min.
Hi. Where's Seok Jin?
Eun Soo couldn't take care of anything else,
so Seok Jin has been working for her.
Come in.
Young Min.
Young Min!
What's wrong, Ji Hyun?
I just saw something bizarre.
Gyu Jin was...
smiling?
What?
Gyu Jin was smiling.
That can't be right.
You must be mistaken.
No, I saw it with my own eyes.
Ji Hyun also...
started investigating it from Gu Bong's office.
So, we start over from here.
I couldn't discourage you,
so I let you tag along this time.
But this will be the last time.
Hello?
Anyone here?
Mr. Ji.
What could this mean?
This is Ji Chang Seok of Violent Crimes Team Two.
There's been a murder.
Please send the forensic team.
We're at the office of GB Private Investigator.
Come in.
Gyu Jin.
Can we stop doing this now?
I'm not even sure how much...
the police and Young Min know.
If things go wrong...
Hee Yeon, that will never happen.
Don't you trust me?
As long as we clean up the scene,
nothing will go wrong.
I'll make sure to keep...
Young Min and the detectives away from us.
So...
you can stop worrying.
You know...
that you're the only one that I trust...
in this world, right?
Trust me.
You imbecile!
Chairman! Calm down.
It's humiliating that you're my son!
I'd rather have you die!
Chairman Do, please.
Yes, I can just get rid of them.
Hold on. Just in case...
Maybe I should keep one piece of decisive proof.
(Delivery Man)
Hi, Young Min.
Why is he here?
I saw a very old charger cable.
The last time he left the house,
he rushed out after reading that.
If coincidences keep repeating, it becomes fact.
Someone who feels threatening...
but also emotionally distant.
And someone who's very close by.
Young Min is suspicious of you.
I haven't found the original yet.
What if I become the bait?
I'll give this note to the police.
Young Min!
