When did it start?
Why would this happen?
He's over there!
Park Hae-young,
you're under arrest for the murder of Ahn Chi-soo.
What do you mean? Why are you suddenly arresting him?
We already have evidence and statements from witnesses.
-That's nonsense. -Don't fight it, just come quietly.
-Hold on. -Wait.
Detective Cha, you'll have to explain why you came down here too.
-Wait! -What are you doing?
I have to confirm something with Park Hae-young.
If you keep this up, you could be seen as an accomplice.
-Come on! -What's going on here?
Okay. I'll go.
But before I do...
I just want to see the investigation files on my brother's death.
I need to check something urgently.
Take him!
-Hold on. -Go!
INJU 20 KILOMETERS
Is that you, Detective?
So you're Sun-woo?
KIM BUM-JOO
Detective Lee Jae-han asked me himself.
He wanted me to meet you in his place.
Why couldn't Detective Lee Jae-han make it?
Oh, he got injured during work.
He's in the hospital right now.
Is he hurt badly?
No, it's not that serious.
It's just difficult for him to move about at the moment.
I heard you have something you need to tell him.
I also heard that you got out of the Youth Detention Center yesterday.
What did you need to tell him so urgently?
KIM BUM-JOO
Who? Park Sun-woo?
That kid who was framed as the culprit in the Inju case.
He came straight to Inju Precinct after getting out.
-Who? -Detective Lee Jae-han.
He came here from Seoul a year ago.
I'm not sure, but let me look him up.
Park Sun-woo is looking for Lee Jae-han.
Yes, can't expect to keep him down forever.
You can trust me and speak to me comfortably.
How else would I have known to come here
unless Detective Lee Jae-han told me?
I know... who the true culprit is, the one who did that to Hye-seung.
Who... is that?
It's the son of the President of Inju Cement.
Jang Tae-jin.
Do you have evidence?
It's Hye-seung's scarf.
I don't know about this.
How can we verify
that this really does belong to her?
Hye-seung's mother knitted this scarf for her.
Hye-seung wears it every winter,
so everyone knows it.
I see.
I will have it analyzed right away
to see if we can find anything.
Thank you.
You're very different than you appear to be.
Judging from your appearance,
you seem quiet and well-behaved.
But you found evidence on your own.
And you met up with detectives.
Are you really determined
to clear your name, even now?
Yes.
I have to.
I have to clear my name
for my family to be together again.
That way, my dad and little brother...
can come back.
I see.
So, Sun-woo...
you will not give up
no matter what happens.
-Right? -Yes.
I will never give up.
There is an important parliamentary hearing coming up.
If his nephew goes to prison, everyone will use it against him.
Please ask the Congressman to stop this internal affairs investigation.
Then I will put my life on the line and protect the Congressman's nephew.
I feel a bit thirsty after talking up a storm.
Can I get some more water?
CITY OF INJU
Thank you.
Detective Kang.
Get in.
Detective Kang.
Please, my brother...
Just let me see the case files on Park Sun-woo's death.
I need to check something.
Shut your mouth and think about the sentence for murder.
Detective Kang.
Detective Kang!
Hae-young, you have so much you're curious about.
You'll grow up to be a good person.
Why?
Curiosity means
you have a lot of interest in the world.
That's correct.
That's right too.
Is it wrong?
-You got everything right. -Yay!
Sun-woo...
Please...
please.
Mom?
Sun-woo!
It can be stopped.
He can be saved. Please...
Sun-woo!
Please.
-He just got back. -I know. That's what I'm saying.
-How could something like this happen? -I knew this would happen.
I knew this would happen. I knew there would be trouble.
What is with this household?
DO NOT ENTER UNDER INVESTIGATION
My poor child!
Sun-woo!
Detective, it's me. Please save my brother.
My son. What do I do?
RESTRICTED AREA
My brother was framed like you said.
-Sun-woo! -And he will die on February 18, 2000.
He's going to be murdered.
Someone...
murdered my brother and made it look like a suicide.
My son. What am I to do?
PARK SUN-WOO DEATH INVESTIGATION
It's the case files for your brother that you wanted to see so badly.
Now that I've shown them to you, answer my questions.
You should know better than I do what this is.
This is the weapon you used to kill the Captain so brutally.
It was wrapped in a plastic bag.
I thought it was trash at first.
When I opened it up, I was so shocked.
Don't try to get out of it.
The Captain's blood was found on it along with your fingerprints.
-It wasn't me. -No,
you killed the Captain.
Inside a men's bathroom near the ER in Inju Hospital,
a weapon we believe was used to kill the Captain was found.
After we analyzed the weapon, we found the Captain's blood and DNA.
We also found Park Hae-young's fingerprints.
What about other evidence?
There was no CCTV in the bathroom or hall
so we have no video.
But we do have witnesses.
They all point to Park Hae-young.
I did see a suspicious person.
CLEANING SUPPLY ROOM
-Is this him? -Yes,
it's him.
It wasn't me.
Why did you go back to Inju Hospital?
Ask the employee at the hospital.
I went to Patient Records to find out what the Captain was investigating.
Stop lying to me!
The real reason you went to the hospital was to destroy the evidence.
You continued to investigate the Inju case after you became a cop, didn't you?
And you found out that the Captain had been in charge of the case.
I'm sure you were angry and resentful
that your brother was put in jail.
But still...
you kill your boss, for that?
That's not true.
It's not me.
Evidence that was fabricated.
Witnesses perjured themselves after receiving money.
If you don't give up...
that's what happens to you.
Just like your older brother.
Suppose...
you could receive messages from the past. What would you do?
Because of us... no.
She died because of me.
If it wasn't for that transmission.
What?
I'm going to turn everything back.
If I still have a chance...
The Kim Yun-jung case, the Gyeonggi Nambu case, and the Han Se-kyu case.
All of the cases you have interest in...
How come they all have a connection to Lee Jae-han?
You're off duty today. What are you doing all the way here?
Why are you so obsessed with Lee Jae-han?
If I tell you the real reason, will you even believe me?
I can barely believe it myself. How will you, Detective Cha?
What...
what is this?
Lieutenant Park.
What is it?
Sun-woo... He wouldn't commit suicide.
It wasn't a suicide.
He told me very clearly.
He had evidence to expose the true culprit of the Inju case.
I found evidence for Hye-seung's case.
It's a red scarf that Hye-seung was wearing on that day.
I can't trust anyone else.
I want to give it to you myself.
But...
no matter how much I searched his house...
I couldn't find that red scarf.
Someone...
made Sun-woo's death look like a suicide,
then took that evidence.
It's someone who should never have that piece of evidence.
I don't know what you're getting at. Stop it and leave.
If you have something to report, follow procedures and do it formally.
I heard something odd at Inju Precinct.
Excuse me,
where's the detective in charge of the Park Sun-woo case?
He's not here right now.
-Excuse me. -Yes?
Let's talk for a moment.
All I told him was that Park Sun-woo was looking for you, Detective Lee.
His suicide has nothing to do with me.
Who did you tell?
Who?
Chi-soo.
If Detective Ahn Chi-soo knew...
I'm sure he reported it to you immediately.
What are you saying? Are you crazy?
-Watch your mouth in my office. -Chief.
I heard the internal affairs investigation on you is being closed.
The circumstantial evidence is clear and there are witnesses.
Someone high up there in the dark has helped you out again.
You even killed to show your loyalty, so I guess he took you back in.
-Right? -That's enough.
-I've had just about enough. -I've had enough too!
-Lee Jae-han! -I won't let you get away with it.
I will put you away.
How could you do it to that young boy? To a young kid like that!
What are you doing out there? Get him out of here!
He already served his time.
Do you know why he was so desperate to clear his name?
It's not because he felt like it was unfair.
It was because his parents and brother...
His family had to be split up because of him!
He wanted to prove his innocence and reunite his family!
Do you realize that? And you harm a child like that?
Let go! Let me go!
He still believed...
He believed he could right the wrong and be together with his family again!
He believed there was a grown-up who would help him with that!
And what is this? How could you do it to a kid like that?
And you call yourself a man? Are you even a human?
You call yourself a cop? Let me go!
Let me go! I said, let go! Let me go, you punks.
I can't trust anyone else.
I want to give it to you myself.
All right, I'll be there soon. Stay home and don't go anywhere.
Detective, it's me. Please save my brother.
My brother was framed like you said.
And he dies on February 18, 2000.
He's going to be murdered!
Sun-woo!
Lieutenant.
I'm sorry.
I couldn't stop it.
It was my mistake.
I should have left right away.
If I had gone as soon as I got his call, I could have saved your brother.
I was so stupid.
My mind was on other things.
I am so sorry.
Are you listening, Lieutenant?
Senior?
Is that really... you?
How is it that you're... and why?
Senior.
Is that really you?
Please answer me.
Is it really you, Senior?
I waited 15 years for you.
But in the end...
you came back to me dead.
I waited 15 years.
But you ended up dead, Senior!
Say something, please.
You...
You told me to wait.
You said you had something to say to me.
You told me to wait for you.
I waited so long for you.
So, say something.
Say something to me.
Cha Soo-hyun, I...
Lieutenant Park...
Did something happen to him?
I couldn't tell Detective Lee Jae-han about his death.
On August 3rd...
he will die at Seonil Mental Hospital.
I couldn't tell him yet.
Senior.
August 3rd, Seonil Mental Hospital.
Don't go to Seonil Mental Hospital.
Are you listening to me? If you go there...
Senior?
Senior...
You came back to me dead.
I waited 15 years for you.
But you ended up dead, Senior!
AUGUST 3, SEONIL MENTAL HOSPITAL
Where did he go off to?
-Soo-hyun, Mom wants you to eat this. -No, I'm busy.
Gosh, just eat it.
Come sit down for a minute.
Give that to me.
-What happened next? -With what?
You told him about your feelings.
-What feelings? -Just tell me.
Do you think I'm going to work to date? I'm busy catching criminals.
Wow, look at my sister's face.
It's no wonder you got rejected. Do you even put on lotion?
Be quiet. When would a detective have the time to put on lotion?
Do detectives not breathe? Does your heart not beat?
I don't know about criminals, but you must want to look pretty for him.
You have some right here. Put some of this on.
I don't need it. Just leave.
Mom! Look at Soo-hyun.
I was only helping her and she hit me.
Right here on the chest. It hurts.
Yeah, right here.
Mom, can you make Soo-hyun get married already?
How long do we have to share rooms?
I want my own room.
Mom.
He's not the type to like me because of this stuff.
I must be crazy.
Hello. Good morning.
Hello.
-Good morning. Hello. -Good morning.
I know...
What's going on?
Where's Senior Jae-han?
He didn't... tell you either?
That guy has no heart.
Lee Jae-han is being transferred.
He requested a move to Ilsan Precinct.
Senior!
You left this, didn't you?
Did I ask you for something like this?
I said, did I ask you for this?
Then throw it away.
Soo-hyun.
Don't challenge any criminal...
that you see in front of you.
Avoid the ones wielding knives.
You can catch them later.
Don't get hurt.
Don't be sick either.
Senior.
If this is about
what I said before...
A detective...
must always be focused.
Open it.
I think I should ask the detective in charge--
I just need a moment. I need to talk to him in private.
Detective Cha, it can't be for too long.
Let me ask you bluntly.
Can he be saved?
Park Hae-young, look at me.
I still don't believe it.
The transmission and everything you said, I don't believe any of it.
But that voice...
It was definitely Senior Lee Jae-han.
You said that you saved a person that had been dead before.
So...
what about my senior?
Can he be saved?
Answer me.
I told you already.
If you use the transmissions to save someone...
it can be dangerous.
If we can change everything...
If we can save his life...
If there's even a one percent chance...
I will do it, even if I ruin everything.
So answer me.
What can I do to save him?
I don't know anything anymore.
What I wanted was to expose the truth.
But nothing worked out the way it was supposed to.
Both Detective Lee Jae-han and Captain Ahn Chi-soo are dead.
I couldn't even stop my brother from dying.
And now...
I've been framed for murder and I'm locked up.
Everyone who has been saved by the transmissions...
Even the cases that have been altered... I'm not sure I've done the right thing.
And now, if we change the past again using the transmissions,
I don't know what could happen.
No.
The past may already have been changed.
I told Senior about August 3rd.
I told him not to go to Seonil Mental Hospital.
You're wrong.
He knew and he still went there.
He thought that he would find a lead there.
That's why he went there.
This is the Seonil Mental Hospital in Hanjung-dong that you told me about.
Lieutenant, why did you tell me not to come here?
What...
What's going to happen here?
It's not the location.
Then why?
I have to find out how he died.
It's Kim Sung-bum.
His body was buried at Kim Sung-bum's country home.
How did Senior and Kim Sung-bum...
He must know how he died.
It's the same for the Captain's case.
If we can find Kim Sung-bum, we can clear your name too.
We can find out how to save Senior too.
As for me...
For both Senior and you...
I won't give up.
Hey! You punk! Put that down right now.
Put it down.
Why? Is there something I can't see in it?
Go get a warrant for Detective Cha Soo-hyun if you want to look.
That's enough now, okay? You guys have looked around enough.
Why were you at Inju Hospital that day? Did you go there with Park Hae-young?
Detective Moon, can't you read Korean?
-What? -Did you study abroad?
-What? -Hey!
This is the Cold Case Investigations Squad.
We're a team that investigates cold cases.
So we were re-investigating the Inju case.
The Inju case isn't a cold case.
They may have arrested someone.
But there is suspicion that there is another true culprit.
Then that can be a cold case too.
Detective Moon, you're more narrow-minded than you look.
What did you say?
Let's go.
Why, that little punk. I ought to just...
That little...
Something is off about this.
Park Hae-young's arrest is very similar to the 2000 Inju case.
There's no evidence, and the case relies on witness statements.
And the statements match one another too well.
The witnesses all appeared right at the moment they were needed.
It's as if someone planned it all out.
The method used to kill doesn't fit Park's personality either.
He doesn't have the skill to kill someone with a single blow.
You're right.
And it doesn't make sense to leave the weapon at the crime scene.
Honestly, Park Hae-young is not a killer like that.
I have someone that I suspect is the killer.
-Who? -Kim Sung-bum.
Kim Sung-bum?
By Kim Sung-bum, you mean...
that man Profiler Park looked into while digging into the Captain's background?
That's right.
Kim Sung-bum was in Inju on the day that the Captain died.
-Really? -Park Hae-young saw him.
Then he should tell the Wide-Area Squad.
They believe Park Hae-young is the most likely suspect.
Do you think they'd believe him?
Those guys are so small-minded.
That's not all.
We found skeletal remains of a detective
in Kim Sung-bum's country home from 15 years ago.
A detective? He killed a detective?
The name of that detective is...
Lee Jae-han.
In 1999, he investigated the Inju case
along with Captain Ahn Chi-soo.
What did I say? There's something more to the Inju case.
Kim Sung-bum went underground after that case.
He's someone used to crime. He could smuggle his way out of here.
We have to find him before he does.
CCTVs around his nightclub and home...
His cell phone records, financial records, and credit cards.
Even his criminal record.
Find anything you can.
Okay.
This is a list Gye-chul came up with of places Kim Sung-bum could be hiding.
We excluded motels because of the dangers of CCTV.
These are places acquaintances of Kim Sung-bum own.
There are too many.
Even if I profiled Kim Sung-bum,
he is on the run right now.
He wouldn't necessarily stay in a place that suited his taste.
I don't think I can help out this time.
Pull yourself together, Park Hae-young.
We have to find Kim Sung-bum quickly.
There's someone besides us looking for him.
So cold.
PROPERTIES OWNED BY KIM SUNG-BUM'S ACQUAINTANCES
Detective Cha, something strange happened.
I heard this from some people who know Kim Sung-bum.
There was someone who came looking for him before me.
-Was it the Wide-Area Squad detectives? -No, it wasn't a cop.
These people are one step ahead of us too.
It's Director Kim Bum-joo.
Director Kim Bum-joo?
But it was him who got Kim Sung-bum out of here in the first place.
So why...
It was Director Kim Bum-joo who got him off at first.
But Kim Sung-bum probably went into hiding right away.
Because the person most dangerous to him right now
is Kim Bum-joo.
They never planned on Senior Lee Jae-han's body being discovered.
A cop's body has been found. They need someone to take the fall.
On top of everything...
Kim Sung-bum is a witness that knows all about Kim Bum-joo's corruption.
He'll try to get rid of him before Kim Bum-joo gets caught by the police.
What happened?
I looked everywhere he could possibly hide, but I haven't found him.
You have to find him before the cops do.
I understand.
CITY OF BUCHEON 031-700-8990
If Kim Bum-joo finds Kim Sung-bum before we do,
we won't know why Senior Lee Jae-han died.
And we lose the only witness to Captain Ahn Chi-soo's death.
We have to find him first. We have no time.
Which region is the most probable?
Jongno-gu, where Kim Sung-bum grew up,
or Gyeonggi-do Bucheon, where his mother's home was.
Gyeonggi-do, Bucheon...
Why?
Kim Sung-bum has been on the run from the police
and from Director Kim Bum-joo.
He's surrounded by enemies, so he probably can't smuggle himself out.
Then what would he do in that situation?
He would turn to the person he thinks is the most trustworthy.
Yes. The cop who would never join hands with Kim Bum-joo.
He would probably try to call the cop
who tried to expose Kim Bum-joo's corruption.
That would be someone like me...
PRISONERS' PERSONAL ITEM STORAGE
Seriously, you can't be in here.
I'm only doing this for you. Now you want the cell phone?
I'm not trying to call someone with it.
-I just need to check something. -Still...
There's a clue there that can lead me to the person who killed the Captain.
I have to see it now.
You're taking responsibility for this.
CALL HISTORY
This is Kim Sung-bum.
Come out.
We are going to take you to be detained.
Take him.
This is Kim Sung-bum.
I have something that can take Kim Bum-joo down in one blow.
I can't trust any other cops.
Park Hae-young,
come alone. January 19 at 11 p.m.
Basement parking lot of Sanghwa Building.
I'll go arrest him with the team.
No, Kim Sung-bum is a criminal and he's very alert.
He'll be watching from afar somewhere to see whether I show up or not.
If someone other than me shows up,
he won't contact me again.
There's only one way.
Yeah.
I'll be a little late after going to court.
Put that case file for that investigation on top of my desk.
Okay.
Did you check the CCTV with that lady from the store?
All right.
Can't you get things done quickly when I ask you to do something?
Okay, don't staple the file...
Yeah, don't staple--
Hey!
Stop right there.
Hey! Get him!
Stop!
Hey!
Stop!
Park Hae-young!
You can't do it alone!
Park Hae-young!
You can't do it alone.
No, I can't involve you in this, Detective Cha.
Once we arrest Kim Sung-bum,
we can clear you of this crime.
You can't do this.
-Stop right there. -Hey!
Hey!
We lost Park Hae-young. The license plate is 28Mo6417.
Track it down now!
Are you okay?
We can't use this car for long. We need to take a taxi.
Will you be all right, Detective Cha?
All the detectives at Wide-Area Squad will be up in arms.
It doesn't matter.
We have to meet up with Kim Sung-bum soon.
I need to know why and how Senior died
and what needs to be changed in order for him to live.
Detective Lee Jae-han from Homicide Precinct Violent Crimes Team 2.
Is Detective Lee Jae-han here?
-Here. -Oh.
You have mail. You're Lee Jae-han?
-Yes. -Please sign here.
Thank you.
TO LEE JAE-HAN
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF FORENSIC SCIENCES
Prosecutor Oh Jae-sung? This is Lee Jae-han.
I have the evidence.
It's the evidence against Kim Bum-joo for murder.
Yes, all right. I'll be at your office in an hour.
Yes.
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF FORENSIC SERVICE ITEM - A SCARF
TABLE 1 STR RESULTS
-I'll be out. -Yes.
-Call me if something comes up. -Yes, I will.
A child has disappeared. It's a kidnapping.
A girl named Kim Yun-jung has been kidnapped from Jinyang Elementary.
What?
-Hey, contact your family. -You look into the call that came in
-and confirm when and where it happened. -Yes.
It's always so hectic when this happens.
I'm going to head out for now.
Yes, I will check...
Detectives Choi and Park, let's head outside.
Help out with the initial report that came in.
-I'm going to look into the school. -Yes.
Please connect me to Jinyang Elementary School.
January 19 at 11 p.m.
Basement parking lot of Sanghwa Building.
I can't trust any other cops.
Park Hae-young,
come alone.
Are you here alone?
What about the evidence?
Where's the evidence to bring Kim Bum-joo down?
I asked you if you're alone.
Tell me what the evidence is.
What do you think it is?
Bribery, embezzlement... The statute of limitation is expired.
The crime for which the statute of limitation doesn't apply...
Murder... it's a murder case?
Kim Sung-bum,
put your hands up.
Kim Sung-bum!
Wait!
No!
I told you to come alone. Are you crazy?
Don't worry. You can trust Detective Cha.
It's not about who I can trust or not.
You don't know what kind of person Kim Bum-joo is.
I'm sure someone followed you.
Detective Lee Jae-han.
You remember him, right?
I don't know who that is.
Year 2000...
-at Seonil Mental Hospital. -I said I don't know!
At your country home...
his body was buried there.
Why?
Why did you kill him?
He made the decision to die.
If he had just stayed put, nothing would have happened.
He's the one who acted out and died for no reason.
-Hey! Come over here. -Yes.
-How many are coming again? -I heard that it was about five.
-Five? -Yes.
Gather around.
-You can get the phone. -Yes, sir.
Violent Crimes, Team 2.
Chief of Detectives from Seoul Headquarters
has come to oversee the Kim Yun-jung case.
He will be in charge of the case
from now on.
-What? -What about you, Chief...
That was very sudden.
There has been a blackmail letter.
They want 50 million won in cash brought to Firenze Cafe.
The precinct team can head over
to the crime scene and look for anyone suspicious.
The Seoul team will pose as customers.
We'll say our greetings later. Let's move!
-Yes, sir. -Yes.
Customers, everyone. We ask for your cooperation.
We're from the Jinyang Police Station.
He died for no reason?
-What do you mean by that? -That kid had nothing to do with him.
He could have left it alone and ignored it.
He investigated it like a crazy man,
saying he'd expose the truth.
The case of Park Sun-woo's death? Is that what you're referring to?
That's right.
Does anyone else besides Oh Jae-sung know about this?
Oh...
You want to know how I found out when you only told Prosecutor Oh?
That's just how the world is.
Didn't you realize by now that everyone is in the same boat?
This is your last chance.
Give up.
If you can promise me that you'll give up, I can end this right now.
I don't want to kill a fellow cop either--
Lieutenant Park.
I think this might be my last transmission.
Don't ever give up.
The past can be changed.
Hey, what is this?
These punks...
What time is it?
11:23 p.m.
Don't ever give up.
He had a chance to live.
But he pushed it away himself.
It's because of me.
Because of me...
These cold cases exist because someone gave up on them.
So you should not give up, Detective.
I have a favor to ask of you, Detective.
Find out what happened in Inju in 1999.
Please tell me the truth about that case.
Detective, it's me.
Please save my brother.
He will die on February 18, 2000.
He's going to be murdered!
I'd thought that everyone had turned their backs on it.
He, alone, had never given up.
And because of me...
Detective Lee died because of me.
Park Hae-young, get it together.
Stop right there!
No... no.
Kim Sung-bum.
Kim Sung-bum!
Get out.
Turn around and put your hands on the car.
No!
Park Hae-young.
Park Hae-young...
Park Hae-young.
Park Hae-young, wake up.
Wake up. Park Hae-young!
-The radio... -I'll call an ambulance.
The radio...
You have to send a radio transmission.
I won't give up.
No matter what happens,
I'll see it through to the end.
You have to save...
Detective Lee Jae-han.
Park Hae-young...
Park Hae-young, hold on.
No, Park Hae-young.
You have to wake up, Park Hae-young.
No... Park Hae-young!
I want you to be happy, Detective.
I want you to be happy too, Lieutenant.
There's only one thing I'm sure of.
These transmissions started by the will of one person.
The voice that came over that radio
taught me one thing.
This is your last chance. Give up.
No.
The past...
has already changed.
Find him, no matter
-what you have to do. -I'll be sure to be back.
I'll be back soon.
