[camera shutter clicks]
[Sejin in English] Scissors.
[in Korean] The progress of decay is evident throughout the body,
showing advanced signs of decomposition.
Scalpel.
[pathologist 1] It's indistinguishable, because both the rigor mortis and lividity
have subsided due to decomposition.
[Sejin] Yes. Let's examine the organs.
How much do you know about Ma Taehwa's mastermind?
No more hiding.
He goes by Dex.
He was called to Korea when Ma Taehwa was in prison.
I don't know exactly when he set foot on Korean soil.
However,
I know that the plan for Ma Taehwa's escape
began after Ma Joongdo's death.
Since when have you been digging into Ma Joongdo's death?
I wasn't certain, either. That's why I ended up here.
Do you think you can find something through the autopsy?
When you build a building,
you always find a defect once it's done.
The design might be perfect,
but the execution by workers isn't always perfect.
I'm placing hope on that possibility.
He won't stop until he silences everyone who knows about him.
Yang Chiyoung.
You must be next.
[Dex] If you want your son alive,
keep what I said in mind.
Do you think…
I'm doing this just to save my own life?
Then what? Did he say he'd kill me, too?
Let's stop.
Just be honest.
Ask me to catch Dex.
No, ask me to save you.
All right, I'll admit it.
I, alone, haven't been able to figure out his identity,
let alone his methods.
If anyone can… No.
You were the only one.
You're putting in so much effort to spare your life,
so I'll do what I can.
[Sejin] Let's take a look at the stomach. Scissors.
[camera shutter clicks]
[Sejin] Hand me the beaker, please.
Forceps.
[camera shutter clicks]
[Sejin] A solid residue in white opaque crystalline form
has been identified.
[♪ tense music playing]
[camera shutter clicks]
[Sejin] This is unusual.
Is there a possibility it's poison?
[pathologist 1] I'll send it to toxicology for analysis.
[Sejin] Before that,
let me check.
[pathologist 2] Professor.
Rinse your mouth. Hurry.
As I expected.
It's salty. It's salt.
[Sejin rinsing, spits]
[♪ thrilling rock music playing]
TRUST FALL: Taking a leap of faith.
It refers to taking risks and trusting your teammates.
[sighs]
You mentioned the purpose of this autopsy
was to find evidence of homicide, right?
Yes.
Considering the current situation,
there's no evidence of homicide from the autopsy.
Mr. Ma Joongdo could have died at any time.
He was a heavy smoker with bad lungs,
there were signs of coronary artery disease in the heart
and even kidney failure.
Not a single healthy part remained.
He should've been hospitalized, not running for president.
Wasn't decay the reason nothing was discovered?
[Sejin] No. Actually, Mr. Ma's state of decay was quite well-maintained.
In deep soil, the oxygen supply is cut off,
which slows down the rate of decay.
That's why we were able to examine some organs.
That's hard to believe.
I can only talk about what I saw
and verified as a forensic expert.
The autopsy of Mr. Ma
didn't yield any evidence of homicide.
[Sejin] If you'll excuse me.
Sure. Thank you for your work.
[Chuljoong sighs]
With this, Ma Joongdo's case
is perfectly closed.
One more question.
Do you really believe Assemblyman Ma's death was homicide?
Please answer, staking your 30-year honor as a prosecutor.
Yes.
I believe it was a homicide.
[♪ tense music playing]
Then let go of this case.
Your skills won't cut it, anyway.
[Chuljoong] Hogae.
Even after the autopsy yielded nothing. What are you going to do?
Dex is not only perfect at planning but executing as well.
You just witnessed it yourself!
The autopsy
is a part of the investigation, not the whole thing.
And…
there's no such thing as a perfect crime.
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
[Kang Doha] You're late, Ms. Woo.
My goodness. Mr. Kang!
What brings you here?
I brought these as gifts for the kids.
How are Sunju and Sunja?
-It's Suna. -Right, Suna.
[Samsoon chuckles]
They're doing well.
[laughs]
But my kids are past the age to play with things like this.
Right.
But thank you, anyway.
Why did you bring gifts?
Actually,
-it's a bribe. -Sorry?
I need your help.
What is it?
[Samsoon] It does appear to be an IP address.
[Kang Doha] Yes, but the trail goes cold from here.
There's nothing on the Internet, either.
The Internet we use is just the tip of the iceberg.
Look.
[Samsoon] The tip right here,
which is only about 10%, is what we access.
The remaining 90%
is like the deep sea, hidden away.
The darknet?
Darknet: An Internet network that can't be accessed through conventional engines
Drugs, weapons, and even people are bought and sold on this black market.
[Samsoon] It's right here, lurking around this area.
It's an illegal underground market
with complete anonymity guaranteed through specialized browsers.
If you access it, can you find the owner of this IP address?
Who are you trying to find?
A body bomb manufacturer.
That bastard!
In the name of the Green Mothers' Association,
I won't forgive that bastard!
-Let's go. -Ma'am.
I mean, Ms. Woo, where are you going?
You want me to connect to the national network
to access the black market?
I'm a mother with two daughters.
I have to hold out for 15 years to receive a pension.
Then what are you going to do?
I need a new computer with high specs.
I can find you one.
Let's go.

[technician singing] ♪ Please fix everything ♪
-Whoa. -Welcome.
You're here again?
Can you assemble a laptop for us, uncle?
A laptop?
Not one that has dusty graphics cards.
I don't want to reuse what's been mined.
We don't handle such stuff.
Do you have a portable satellite communication antenna?
[laughs] We do.
Military-grade?
[sucks teeth]
Would one used by the British army be good enough?
Can I modify it a bit?
[exclaims]
You can,
but do you think you can find it?
Of course, I can.
Goodness. You've organized things really well.
Who is she?
What's with you?
Huh?
She's from the Green Mother's Association.
[sighs]
[technician] You liar.
There it is.
It's right above you.
You've got good eyes.
Let me bring it out. This thing is really heavy.
Jeez, stress is accumulating again.
I might even get arthritis in my eyeballs.
Darn it!
Who threw cigarette butts in here?
That's a cup for throwing away cigarette butts.
Hey, wait.
[Youngsoo] Look here. Isn't that Sunyeol?
-Looks like him. -Looks like him.
-Check the time. -It's him.
This punk got out on parole just recently and is causing trouble again.
Track him down.
Focus on his wife and his family. There's bound to be something.
-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.
-That punk. -[phone buzzing]
Jin Hogae
Hey, Jindo Dog. What's up?
Got it. I'll bring it out.
National Office of Investigation
Your father requested the data.
I made a copy back then.
Thank you.
What about the home CCTV footage?
That footage was the smoking gun,
which changed it into a case of sudden death.
The CCTV caught the moment of death.
No one can touch that case. It's definitely a natural death.
That's what you think.
No, the moment of death is clearly recorded.
The game is completely over.
Hey.
I'm suffering because you lost Ma Taehwa.
Did you find the bastard who sent the bomb to the NFS?
No, we're still looking into it.
What's wrong with you, Youngsoo?
Come on, let's do this properly with desperation.
Those weird sunglasses… Jeez.
[♪ tense music playing]
[Hogae] Assemblyman Ma Joongdo.
October 7, 2022, 9:00 a.m.
Found dead at home on his couch.
At the time, only Assemblyman Ma and the housemaid were at home.
The entire house was equipped with CCTV,
so the events of the day were thoroughly recorded.
One hour before his death,
the housemaid prepared beef bone soup for breakfast as usual.
On the day of his death,
both the housemaid and Assemblyman Ma consumed the same food.
Thus, poisoning by food toxins can be ruled out.
[sighs]
Moments after the meal until his death were thoroughly captured,
so possibilities of external intrusion or forced homicide
can be ruled out.
[TV chatter]
[♪ ominous music playing]
[exhales deeply]
There must have been something different from usual if it's homicide.
Uncle. I'm sorry, but can you leave, so we can talk?
-Talk about what? -Work.
[technician cackles]
You should've said it sooner.
Gosh.
He's so clueless.
[Kang Doha] Ms. Woo.
-Yes? -I've been curious for a while now.
What are you doing?
This is a satellite communication antenna used for military purposes.
We're going to modify it to create an Internet bypass network.
With a good CPU,
we can even receive air traffic control signals.
I'm going to bypass the International Space Station network
and connect to the darknet.
Bypass the ISS network?
It's a way to prevent them from tracing us.
The darknet is where all sorts of crazy people from around the world lurk.
They even deal in improvised explosive devices.
But going all the way to the space station is…
That's why you shouldn't mess with a mother.
All right.
Shall we?
As expected.
Your skills haven't gone rusty yet.
Let me ask you one last time.
Are you really going to access it?
There may be people who are more dangerous than you think.
[sighs]
This is really risky,
so you should back out, Ms. Woo.
What? You're going to do this alone?
This is something
that people without family should do.
I've arranged to collaborate with the Air Force EOD team,
so don't worry.
One, two, three,
four, five, six,
seven, eight.
Two, three…
five, six,
seven, eight.
[♪ thrilling music playing]
What is this?
Professor, something seems strange.
This salt isn't just a single component.
One is salt, but what's the other one?
[examiner] It's potassium.
That's why it wasn't salty. I tasted it.
He added salt eight times to his soup.
Crystallized potassium will look like salt on the outside,
but because it lacked the salty flavor,
he must have added a lot more to his soup than usual.
What does potassium mixed in with salt do to the body?
If you consume more than a lethal dose of salt,
it creates an electrolyte imbalance.
Young people might be able to balance it out
by drinking water or other means.
But for an elderly person with cirrhosis and renal failure,
it could have been difficult.
So you're saying it could cause death, right?
The lethal dose of salt for adults is around one ounce,
which is about four teaspoons.
Even though it's measured in blood concentration,
consuming slightly more salt than usual in daily meals
could potentially lead to death.
[Sejin] Furthermore, even after death,
potassium continues to be broken down by enzymes in the blood.
So even if an autopsy had been performed at the time,
it would have been hard to detect abnormalities in blood potassium levels.
Which is why the murder weapon was left behind.
Because neither potassium nor salt alone
is a murder weapon.
[Sejin] The victim being an elderly man with underlying conditions
of renal failure and cardiac disease.
You'd need all three factors in a perfect combination
for death to occur.
In other words, the victim's age and underlying conditions
also played a role in making the murder feasible.
It must have taken at least a week or more.
It shows persistence and meticulous planning.
It's not that meticulously planned.
The potassium was left behind.
A critical mistake was made,
and mistakes usually lead to being handcuffed.
[Hogae] Song Seol.
Why take the stairs? Is the elevator out of order?
No.
[sighs]
I can't take the elevator.
[sighs]
So you've been taking the stairs since then?
Yes.
Well, it's a good exercise.
[♪ soft music playing]
[Hogae] How long are you going to keep doing this?
[Seol] I'm not sure. I'll eventually get over it.
Do you take the elevator elsewhere or is it just here that you can't take it?
Can you help me?
Let's take the elevator together.
Shall we?
It's okay.
Next time.
We can take the stairs.
I can't be trapped in that day forever.
[♪ gentle music playing, BUMJIN "Cross The Way"]
Thank you.
[Kang Doha] Why don't you pick up your phone?
Me? You called me?
I get that you're busy,
but aren't you going to catch the body bomb maker?
Why? Did you find something?
Yes.
I found a bomb shopping mall.
[Kang Doha] This bastard is a pro who's active on the dark web
with a low profile.
[Hogae] Will you go undercover? Have you made a request?
Yes.
I'll get going.
Okay. Bye.
[lock beeps]
When do you expect to get a reply?
I'll wait and see.
[exhales deeply]
Wouldn't it be faster if I caught him and asked him how he made the bomb?
I doubt it.
If I identify him, come and cuff him.
As you know, the NFS doesn't have the authority to investigate.
All right, keep up the good work.
There's another guy I need to catch.
You owe me a meal.
[reporter] The families of the five firefighters
embraced the scorched fire-fighting boots and wailed.
The sound of their grief echoed through the entire auditorium,
further piercing the hearts of the mourners.
The fire chief, serving as the funeral director,
spoke at the memorial service…
This is a copy
of the statements written by the surviving members at the time,
but there's not a single mention of the cause of the fire.
Everyone was too shocked at the time.
But I'll still read it.
-Okay. -It might be of some help.
Did you work alongside the deceased firefighters?
Where was the location the firefighters died at?
Okay.
"When I was changing into new fire-fighting shoes
to fight the fire,
the structure collapsed,
and they couldn't avoid death."
Fire-fighting shoes?
[Soon] This is the aftereffect of a third-degree burn.
I got it on my sole during a fire ten years ago.
We had lousy firefighting shoes back then.
I stepped on flames,
which killed all the pores.
The burnt shoes
from then.
Do you still have them?
No. I threw them away.
Of course.
You're going for the second round of questioning tomorrow, right?
-Yes. -Don't worry too much.
I'll look into it a bit.
What are you going to do?
[scoffs]
Come on, you're talking to Polar Bear.
You don't trust me?
[both chuckle]
[papers rustling]
[Mr. Baek] All right.
[Samsoon] Ma Joongdo was murdered?
[sighs]
Wait, you kept the autopsy a secret from us?
-How sneaky of you. -I know.
There's no coincidence in crime.
We missed that.
He took a considerable amount of drugs to get a stay of execution.
But you can't bring drugs into prison.
[Hogae] So what's the plan, then?
He needed his father's funeral.
That little…
You're saying he killed his dad to get out of prison?
He risked his life, too.
[Hogae] Is it possible to fake acute renal failure?
Once an organ like the kidney deteriorates, there's no reversing it.
If you're willing to accept that,
you can make it happen with a certain cocktail of drugs.
The murders of Yang Chiyoung and Ma Joongdo
and the escape of Ma Taehwa.
Treat the three cases as one. We're doing a full-scale reinvestigation.
Let's start with the murder of Ma Joongdo.
So you'll go to the ends of the earth in search of salt?
We'll go to the salt mines if we have to to find the person who made the salt.
Wait. Where's Mr. Baek?
Lately, he's been struggling, because of the shantytown arson case.
Shouldn't we help him?
What can we help him with? You don't trust him?
We need to go find salt.
[Pil groans]
It's salt this time.
[Pil] Coming.
First, check the equipment that needs maintenance.
-Yes, sir. -Officer Choi.
-Yes? -Hello.
Can you help me?
It concerns Chief Dokgo.
Yes, of course. Anything.
-All right. Can I talk to you? -Sure.
I'll be back.
[Kisoo] These are the remains of Kim Soohong,
the firefighter who died ten years ago during the shantytown fire.
They kept the fire-resistant suits and shoes he wore at the time.
We'll uncover the truth
for the sake of the firefighters…
who died on duty that day.
The late Kim Soohong
We want to request an inspection of an item from the scene of a fire.
Okay, we'll send them now.
Okay.
She'll be summoned in two hours. Will there be enough time?
We have to make it work no matter what.
Hello.
You're Ms. Han Sookja who used to work
as a housemaid at Assemblyman Ma's house, right?
-Yes. -Right.
It's heavy.
-Who are you? -We're the police.
I filled the salt container on the dining table
when it looked like it was going to run out.
He always had soup in the mornings,
and he got angry whenever he saw the salt that hardened.
Do you happen to remember when you bought this salt?
Oh…
I think…
it was about a week before he passed away.
[helper] It was a gift that came in the mail.
It seemed expensive, so I added it in.
Where did the package come from?
Hmm…
[Hogae] There it is.
It was delivered to Assemblyman Ma's residence on September 30.
But there's nothing sent from the US.
I've checked the surrounding dates, but there's nothing.
The housemaid mentioned receiving a package from the US.
There's no record of any overseas package.
[inhales sharply]
It couldn't have been added in between.
It's strange.
Who made the delivery that day?
Deliverymen keep quitting abruptly, so I need to look it up.
Give me a moment.
Found it. Park Youngjun.
He's the punk who quit after being absent without notice.
Do you have any personnel records?
If the delivery vehicle had an accident and the delivery guy fled,
it would cause us a lot of trouble.
So we make copies of the driver's license just in case.
Let me take a look at it.
Okay. Just a moment.
This driver's license has a fake address and resident registration number.
-I don't care who that guy is. -Excuse me?
What he did with this fake license is more important.
Ms. Woo, do me a favor.
You don't need to worry too much.
Intentional dereliction of duties won't be acknowledged.
We've already coordinated with the higher-ups.
Did I mishear?
Coordinated with the higher-ups for what?
[Mr. Baek] Are you shooting a romance drama
instead of investigating?
Who are you?
I'm Detective Baek Cham, the team leader at Taewon Police Station.
Since the busy prosecutor was coming in person,
I took the time to come as well.
Well, the investigation was just a formality
and it's over, so I think we're done here.
You shouldn't be conducting an investigation as a formality.
What are you doing?
What matters is not whether or not Chief Dokgo Soon has committed
intentional dereliction of duties.
Here are the statements
from the firefighters who responded to the shantytown fire
ten years ago.
The common point is that the soles of their fire-fighting shoes were burnt.
-So what? -"So what?"
We managed to retrieve a pair that were worn back then,
and they're currently being examined by the NFS.
What do you mean by examined?
Let's find out together once the report is in.
It should be here any minute.
[knocks on door]
Come in.
[Kisoo] Here's the report on the chemical analysis of the residue
left on the soles of the thermally decomposed fire-fighting shoes.
Flammable liquids such as toluene and xylene
were detected in the residue.
Flammable liquids?
Most of them were consumed by the fire,
but traces of the liquids remained on the soles of the shoes.
The fact that all the firefighters' shoes were burnt…
indicates that a wide area of the floor
was sprayed with a flammable liquid accelerant
since liquid flows on the floor.
So what does this mean?
The presence of flammable liquid residue
in the remains of combustion
serves as direct evidence of arson.
What are you trying to pull?
I'm warning you.
I don't know who the higher-ups you're kissing up to,
I mean, the higher-ups you coordinated with are.
[Mr. Baek] But the fact that the shantytown fire was an arson case
can no longer be concealed.
You won't be able to conceal it.
The situation has become quite complicated.
What?
You were supposed to only scare them.
Why did you complicate things?
Where is this guy from?
Taewon Police Station?
[Hong] Song Jaejun and Song Minjun…
are not the dead baby's father.
-What? -See? I told you!
You're violating human rights here.
You crazy detective!
Lieutenant Jin Hogae, right? I will not tolerate what happened today.
Good.
I know someone there.
It's not just any connection.
It's an ill-fated one.
They rented a car with a forged driver's license.
The date of Attorney Yang's death is within the rental period.
Darn it. We went through so much trouble to find the car that day.
What kind of car is it, exactly?
These guys are seriously insane.
[Samsoon] They rented two hearses.
That's why we couldn't find anything with the ambulances.
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
They're making us waste our time.
I'm starting to feel bitter.
Send us the rental car company's address.
-Step on it. -Yes, sir.
Yes. This is our hearse.
Okay.
Rental cars have GPS trackers on them.
Can we see the operation records?
But this customer requested to have the GPS tracker removed
in exchange for paying more,
so the record shows that it wasn't attached.
What? Then let us see the payment record.
They paid in cash, so I gave them a discount.
[Pil] So, there's no credit card record?
No.
So if a customer asks for it, you remove the GPS tracker?
You run your business with extraordinary trust and confidence in people.
There are thousands of rental car thefts every year.
Yes. Well, that's true.
You give discounts if they pay in cash.
Yes, that's right.
Why do you give discounts?
What? What do you mean?
Because I am grateful?
Grateful? For what?
Letting you handle money?
No. I mean…
Doesn't everyone love cash?
-This darn rat. -Goodness.
-There's a rat. -Here you go again.
Tax-evading businesses make his blood pressure rise.
-[Pil] Calm down. -[Hogae] I can't take this.
Detective Kong, get the economic crime team right away.
Hey, give us your ledgers.
[Hogae] Let's see how much cash was handled.
No! Why are you doing this?
What's the point of checking the ledgers?
Well, you see…
I have a backup system in place.
A backup system?
Yes. Sometimes customers remove the GPS tracker,
so I secretly hide an extra GPS tracker in the trunk.
But we really don't systematically collect
driving information or anything like that.
Come on.
We have principles, too.
We'll protect your trade secrets.
Where's that GPS tracker?
[♪ upbeat music playing, Crying Nut "The Hero"]
[Pil] Goodness. Look at this.
Thank you.
-Send it directly to Ms. Woo. -Sure.
I'm downloading it right now.
The download is complete.
Both hearses were moved from Bongoh Orthopedic Clinic
on the day Mr. Yang Chiyoung died.
Okay. He loaded Ma Taehwa and Yang Chiyoung.
What about the last location?
One is the abandoned shopping mall where Mr. Yang Chiyoung was found.
The other is…
I'll give you the address, so start heading there.
It's near Mapyeong IC.
About the rental car company we just visited.
He gave discounts on cash payments to evade taxes
and collected customer driving information without consent.
Please inform the economic crime team to investigate.
Gosh, you really are harsh, Jindo Dog.
-Just drive. -Yes, sir.
Sir! I found a record of Im Sunyeol transferring a large sum to his wife.
Really? Where did he make the transfer?
At a convenience store near Mapyeong IC.
-I'll go with you. -No, I'll go alone.
He was my junior. I'll go quietly and bring him in.
If we ambush him, he might resist and we might get hurt.
Sit.
-Will you be okay? -Of course.
Hey, Jindo Dog!
We got the location of the body bomb delivery guy.
-What about Ma Taehwa? -I've got his location, too.
You better catch the guy with your life on the line this time.
Don't worry.
I'll make up for losing Ma Taehwa with this.
All right, Batter Moon of the RIU.
When you catch that jerk, handcuff him. Don't hit him.
By the way, it's nice to work together like this again.
-[Hogae] See you later. -Okay.
He's cute.
-[chuckles] -Goodness.
[Youngsoo] On the night of November 10 around 11:45 p.m.,
someone used the ATM machine.
-November 10? -Yes.
[cashier] Oh, here.
Right.
Do you have a CCTV out front as well?
Yes.
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
Okay.
[Youngsoo] License plate 10M…
4219.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Hey, trace the vehicle with the license plate 10M 4219 right now.
[chimes]
We got a reply.
Okay.
Have him send us a recent project before we strike a deal.
-We'll need to verify it. -Yes.
I'll ask them to send the blueprint first.
[keyboard clacking]
Hey, Im Sunyeol. Come here.
Come here. I said come here, you bastard!
[Youngsoo] Where are you going?
[Samsoon] Huihyeon-dong 20-gil 8, Deokchang-gu, Seoul.
-[Hogae] You don't see any hearses, right? -[Pil] No, I don't.
-[Hogae] Hey. -[Pil] That…
I think I hear the engine sound.
Give me the gun.
Okay.
Shouldn't we wait for backup?
[distant yelling]
What was that?
-Go check it out. -You're going in…
[Pil] Darn it.
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
[groans]
[monitor beeping rhythmically]
[Taehwa] Darn it.
I missed you.
What is this?
How many people did you kill to save yourself?
[Taehwa] What are you talking about?
I didn't do it.
Then who did it?
Dex?
[Taehwa] Yes.
That jerk did it.
Tell me about that guy.
I don't know anything personal.
He's a guy who never talks about himself.
If you pull this in this situation, it's quite disappointing.
Hogae.
I…
regretted it so much after my body got ruined.
I self-reflected a lot.
I'll go back to prison quietly.
Come on.
Handcuff me.
You belong in hell.
You jerk.
You're a police officer.
You're supposed to save citizens' lives.
We don't need citizens like you, you bastard.
What?
[Taehwa] Hey.
What are you doing?
Stay still.
Hey.
Is there…
Is there anyone outside?
[Hogae] Stay still.
Hey, what are you…
[mumbling]
The water tastes good, doesn't it?
[whimpers]
[muffled] I'll tell you.
I can't hear you.
I'll tell you.
I'll tell you everything.
[retches]
[coughs]
Go ahead.
I met Dex…
in the US,
but he's actually Korean.
A doctor.
He's a doctor.
What else?
I don't know how he came to the US.
He went to medical school on a scholarship.
He took all the engineering courses
like a lunatic
and said he could do anything.
Who… Who was it?
Julia… Julia Kates. Julia Kates.
She's the first victim that bastard killed.
Seok Moongu, Yang Chiyoung, Ma Joongdo.
He killed all of them, right?
I really didn't know
he'd go that far.
Shut it. You're a jerk who steals someone else's kidney and runs away.
Jin Hogae, spare me once.
I'll go to prison.
Please.
Do as I say.
Okay. Just tell me.
I'll do anything. Everything.
Tell Dex to come here.
What?
Call him and make him come here.
[♪ ominous music playing]
[phone ringing]
It's blood.
Youngsoo.
Hey! Youngsoo.
[groaning]
I'll call 911. Just hold on a bit.
[Youngsoo] Don't.
It's too late.
Darn it.
I got stabbed properly.
You punk!
Pull yourself together, you punk!
Think about your wife.
Let's not complicate things. Let's go.
Okay?
Sunyeol, that bastard.
Hold on a bit more.
[Youngsoo] Darn it. I risked my life
and wanted to show off my skills as Batter Moon.
Don't talk. Just hold on a bit more, Youngsoo.
[Youngsoo] Darn it.
Make sure you catch the culprit.
Youngsoo.
Youngsoo…
[panting]
Why is this file so big?
This is from Next Officetel, isn't it?
Slide it over.
[blasts]
[Kang Doha] What's with this guy?
Were the IEDs that appeared in Taewon all this guy's doing?
IED: Improvised Explosive Device
What's this?
[Yoonjae] It looks like a caravan.
There haven't been any reported caravan explosion incidents in the military.
-This hasn't been executed yet. -Sorry?
It's in the planning stage.
[beeping]
[Taehwa] Ho…
Hogae.
I didn't kill them.
I… I…
I only did what Dex told me to do.
[breathing heavily]
You killed them.
Bang Pilgu, Seok Mijung, Seok Moongu,
Yang Chiyoung, Ma Joongdo.
You killed them all.
No!
I didn't.
Call Dex.
If I do that,
he might end up killing me.
If you don't, I'll kill you.
What?
You think I can't kill you?
No one will know even if I kill you, you bastard.
Hey. [gagging]
[breathing heavily]
[squishing]
[grunts]
Detective Jin!
Calm down.
How did you know we were here?
[Sejin] I'm saying they're highly experienced in surgery.
It's possible they're a surgeon.
A doctor. He's a doctor.
Y-shaped incisions are often used in the United States.
I met Dex in the US,
but he's actually Korean.
[Sejin] Immersing him in ice water was some sort of exhibition.
Just as I thought.
It's salty. It's salt.
[Hogae] That's why it wasn't salty. I tasted it.
What is it?
[Hogae exhales deeply]
The salt with potassium wasn't salty.
So what?
But you said it was salty.
You knew it was salt.
Yes.
[gunshot]
Detective Jin.
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
Why does he never pick up?
[line rings]
[phone buzzes]
This is Kongmyeong Pil.
[Kang Doha] There's another bomb.
The target is a caravan.
What? A caravan?
Detective Jin!
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
[beeping rapidly]
[Pil coughs]
[dispatcher] Fire. Rescue operation.
Sungdong Camping Ground. Caravan fire.
I repeat.
Fire. Rescue operation.
Sungdong Camping Ground. Caravan fire.
[sirens wailing]
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
What's wrong, Kisoo? Can we not make an entry?
We can't. I'll just push forward.
[Soon] Okay!
-Go get the hose, Jihoon. -[Jihoon] Yes, sir.
Get the gear and follow me!
Yes, sir!
-You two go over there. -Okay.
-You follow me. -Okay.
Let's go.
[Mr. Baek] Hogae! Myeongpil!
Mr. Baek, you can't enter right now. We have to put out the fire first.
[Mr. Baek] My guys… My guys are there!
Hogae! Myeongpil!
[explosion]
Jihoon, we have to spray water over the entire area!
Inju, provide support from the rear! Raise the water pressure!
[firefighters] Yes, sir!
There.
-Seol! -We need to search for survivors.
It's too dangerous!
-Let go! -All right!
Let's enter from the back.
Seol! Seol!
[coughs weakly]
Myeongpil.
Are you okay, Myeongpil!?
-Hey, Seol. -Give me Burnshield and saline solution.
It's so hot.
[Seol] You're okay. We're here.
[Pil] What happened to me?
It feels so hot.
You got burned. You'll be fine.
[whimpering]
It's going to hurt, but bear with me.
-[Seol] I'm sorry. Bear with me, okay? -Okay.
[Pil screaming in pain]
Remove his clothing quickly.
If it sticks to his skin, the skin damage will get worse.
[Pil wailing]
Seoha, Doha. We need backup here!
[Seol] Come to the back of the container.
[Pil wailing in pain]
Kisoo, let's hurry and get inside.
Tell me how it is there.
Not yet! We have to put out the fire a little more and then enter!
Kisoo, enter the caravan.
Inju, stop the combustion
-from spreading. -Yes, ma'am.
[Kisoo] Spray the water everywhere!
-Let's go. -Okay.
[♪ dramatic music playing]
Mr. Baek.
You two head to the hospital first.
Doha and I will stay here.
Okay. Let's go.
Let's go.
[Kisoo] The fire is under control.
We just have to put out the small fires.
All right. Let's go in together then.
The frame of the car must have gotten very weak. Be careful.
I'm coming with you.
[Kisoo] The frame is very fragile.
I'll enter first.
[clattering]
-[Kisoo] Wait here. -[Soon] Be careful.
[people murmuring]
[coughs]
[Mr. Baek] How's the situation inside?
We can't confirm anything.
It's possible
that nobody is inside, right?
Kisoo, check the innermost area.
[Kisoo] Okay.
Chief.
[sighs]
[♪ somber music playing]
[breathing shakily]
[Soon] There's…
a body.
[exhales deeply]
[sniffles]
Special thanks to Jeon Kookhwan and Seo Dongwon
for their special appearance

The First Responders Season 2
[Samsoon] It seems to be Detective Jin's phone and public official ID.
[Hogae] I can never turn a blind eye to crime for my own livelihood.
But no matter how badly I get hurt,
come to me.
[Seol] Just stay alive.
I'll run to you wherever you are.
[wailing] Detective Jin!
[crying]
[Hong] Victim's name, Jin Hogae. I will start the autopsy.
