THE FIRST RESPONDERS

THE FIRST RESPONDERS
ALL CHARACTERS, LOCATIONS,
ORGANIZATIONS, INCIDENTS, GROUPS,
AND BACKGROUNDS DEPICTED IN THIS DRAMA
ARE ENTIRELY FICTITIOUS
These guys had nothing
to do with your case, right?
This is your last chance to come clean.
Why did you lie?
(scoffs)
So that their grades would plummet.
Haeun.
Do you even know
how hard it is to maintain first place?
Do you know what I had to go through
for what you did?
Are you saying it was all a lie?
I don't care.
Look.
I'm sorry for the hassle.
She's just immature.
I'll take care of her from now on.
How can you possibly take care of me?
You didn't even know that I was pregnant.
You don't deserve to be a mom.
What?
Watch what you say to your mom!
I don't think
you had to come here just for this.
You should go.
It would've been great
had that been the end of it.
But we have proof
of another crime in your household.
PIL: She wasn't alone on the day
of her suicide attempt.
Despite the police officers
and fire crew being on the scene,
he quietly hid in his room.
(tense music)
It was as if he had committed a sin
and was hiding
from the police and fire crew.
BASE STATION ACCESS RECORD
PHONE OWNER: SONG MINJUN
(scoffs)
(tense music)
Why did you do that?
Are you okay? Minjun.
Minjun. What's going on with you?
How much did you know, sir?
RECEPTIONIST: What is the patient's name?
Patient Song Minjun
didn't come with his mother.
It's Song Minjun.
RECEPTIONIST: He came with his father.
That surgery was for him
to focus only on studying.
You probably don't know,
but it's common in this neighborhood.
Then, did you know
that he skipped his annual test
for semen analysis last year?
He should get it redone yearly
since it could get undone naturally.
But he didn't come by last year.
(tense music)
I skipped it, because I had a grade match
for an online game.
You little
But it wasn't me. It's true.
I didn't do anything!
Then why did you hide from the police?
That was because
Darn it.
Minjun.
What on earth have you done?
Do you know how much she irritates me?
CSAT QUESTIONS
SONG HAEUN
Even if I solved your workbook
half-asleep, I'd still get top scores.
You're only a sophomore.
Don't act up just because you're ahead.
I tried a mock CSA
at the cram school before.
It was super easy.
What a moron.
MINJUN: She treated me like I was a moron!
(whimpering)
Without you
(Haeun choking)
(breathing heavily)
Hey!
Come over here, Song Haeun.
Darn.
I told you to come here.
Hey, what are you doing? Are you insane?
Oh, my!
-(clatters)
-(women scream)
What if I fall down myself?
I'm going to say that you pushed me.
Will you be okay, loser?
You've lost it.
(sirens wailing)
Darn.
(suspenseful music)
But I have nothing to do
with the dead baby. I'm not crazy!
You call that an excuse?
You're crossing the line here.
You have no evidence.
We have evidence. Go ahead.
I'm sorry for not asking for permission,
but we requested a DNA test
to find out who the biological father was.
PIL: Just a moment. She picked up.
Ms. Yun, it's me.
Do you have the test result?
I got it just now.
Song Jaejun and Song Minjun are
THEY ARE NOT A MATCH
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.
Mr. Song Minjun.
We need to investigate your assault more.
Come with us to the station.
Please let him come voluntarily.
Why are you trying to take him?
He assaulted his sister
and it must not be neglected.
Especially in a judge's family.
This false confession was made
in coercion and threat!
It's inadmissible in court.
How dare you threaten him
and cause this mess?
Stop being a hypocrite.
You don't need me in this family, anyway.
It'd be better for you if I disappear,
going abroad or to jail!
-What
-(sobbing)
Haeun, what have you done?
What have you done?
You scare me now.
Please stop upsetting me!
Whatever!
Why you little
Be honest. Who on earth is it?
Who is the father?
Calm down, sir.
(panting)
You still won't talk?
I'd rather choose to die.
(crying)
What has gotten into you two?
MISSING CHILD
MISSING PERSON
CODE AMBER: EMERGENCY CODE ISSUED
WHEN AN INFANT OR CHILD IS KIDNAPPED
INTEGRATED DETECTIVE TEAM
PERCENTAGE OF PATERNITY: NEGATIVE
NEGATIVE
NEGATIVE
NEGATIVE
(sighs)
Darn it.
(sighs)
Oh, my.
What's with you?
(sighs)
You smashed the entire house
just to restore it.
Do you even know how loud it is?
Sorry.
(Hogae sighs)
Is something wrong?
I'm not sure if this is
an appropriate way to put it,
but fortunately,
it wasn't done by Haeun's family members.
Then
You already know.
I have to keep looking
for her baby's father.
(sighs)
Confirmation bias.
Detectives should always be wary of that,
but I failed once again.
CONFIRMATION BIAS: FOCUSING ON INFORMATION
THAT CONFIRMS ONE'S BELIEFS OR VALUES
What about Haeun? Hasn't she told you yet?
(sighs)
I'm not sure
if this will be of help, but
What is it?
When I went to meet her
at the cram school,
I found out that Seungjun,
who recently died,
went to the same cram school.
(tense music)
Something unfortunate happened here.
So we've had the door locked.
What was Mr. Oh Seungjun like?
He was very smart.
But his grades suddenly fell.
He was demoted to a lower class
from Top Class, which caused a ruckus.
A ruckus over cram school tests?
MAN 1: Students here can be graded as
level 5 even with a general score of 97.
And he was demoted
from the invincible Top Class.
It excited other kids.
Why did his grades suddenly fall?
When students do better,
there's one reason.
But their grades fall
for many different reasons.
Did Seungjun and Haeun know each other?
We have an exclusive class
for CSAT preparations
regardless of school and age.
They were both in Top Class,
so of course, they took lessons together.
Oh Seungjun.
He was 18 like Haeun,
and he was a junior at Taewon High.
On last May 23rd,
he fell from the rooftop
of his math cram school and died.
What about his family?
His parents gave up their nationality
the moment his funeral ended
and got their citizenship in Europe
through investment.
PIL: They cut themselves off
from their acquaintances
and went to Malta.
We can't trace them any further
since they're not Korean citizens.
Isn't it a little too much to suspect him,
because he went to the same cram school?
PIL: Haeun gave birth in September.
If we say she got pregnant in February,
it's not entirely impossible
since the baby was stillborn prematurely.
We need Oh Seungjun's DNA to confirm this.
Did you look into it?
I checked his funeral record,
and they cremated his body.
There can't be any DNA samples left.
ANNA: His father's an only child,
so he has no relatives.
The dead boy's DNA sample.
It's got to be somewhere.
What are you talking about?
They already cremated the body.
There we go
with the Jindo Dog emergency again.
ANNA: It's hopeless this time.
I'd say it's more like a disease.
-A disease! That's it.
-Geez, that startled me.
Hospitals are full of DNA samples.
They even had my blood. Ahh!
General hospitals are scary.
Forget it. That high school kid
couldn't have gotten a checkup.
MR. BAEK: I doubt they have
his DNA sample.
(suspenseful music)
You said Oh Seungjun called 1-1-9
a few times.
Was any of those calls
for a medical emergency?
Yes, three years ago.
He suffered from abdominal pain
in a study room.
He received an appendectomy
at Taewon General Hospital.
The hospital probably
has the removed tissue.
That's his DNA sample.
PIL: This is the third time.
Give up if it turns out to be negative.
Yes, this is the last chance.
Stop the car.
We've arrived.
HOGAE: I see.
Anyway, let's make some art
for this investigation.
What are you saying?
We'll iron out the variables.
It means we'll waste our effort.
Let's send a decoy to school first.
MR. BAEK: A tissue removed
through an appendectomy
holds the patient's DNA.
And hospitals are obliged
to keep the paraffin blocks
of removed tissues for around ten years.
With that, we'll be able to tell
if Oh Seungjun
is the father of Haeun's baby.
Wait.
So when will you run that paternity test?
STUDENT 1: He's from the police.
STUDENT 2: He's a detective.
Tomorrow.
I see, tomorrow.
-I'll be going then.
-Good day.
-STUDENT 3: What, a paternity test?
-STUDENT 4: A paternity test?
STUDENT 5: A paternity test
Did you hear him?
They will do a paternity test tomorrow.
(line rings)
Hi.
I set out the bait at the school.
I'll kill you if it turns out
to be another wrong guess.
Okay, let's start moving.
Did you hear?
You know Oh Seungjun
who killed himself at this cram school?
He got Song Haeun pregnant.
What? That loser?
(scoffs)
No way.
Hey, you moron.
He's dead. There are
no DNA samples to run a test with.
Study a little, will you?
He had his appendix removed.
They'll take his DNA from it.
He just can't rest in peace.
This is a total mess.
Wait for me!
(sighs)
These students are smart indeed.
They summarized it so well.
Now word will spread to nearby schools.
Sir, we have a favor to ask.
Okay. Go on.
Could you leave the tissue storage
in Pathology unlocked for a day?
Why should I do that?
I'll decide what to do if you tell me why.
You know hare coursing, right?
(upbeat music)
Is someone actually coming?
I bet so.
Right in front of me ♪
You will show up for sure ♪
There you go again.
Just who's going to show up?
This is the moment.
When was the last time you dated someone?
You little
(suspenseful music)
HOGAE: Leave him be.
-We must catch him red-handed.
-PIL: Yes.
OH SEUNGJUN
-It's good to see you.
-Hi there.
What the
We knew someone was going to show up
if we waited there.
The only person who knew that Oh Seungjun
would be found not to be a match.
The biological father of Haeun's baby.
(sighs)
Were you there to switch the tissues?
I've received an appendectomy, too.
I'd like to take my paraffin block.
I heard you were obliged to keep it.
PRINCIPAL: If I switched
his block with mine,
the result was going to be positive.
Seungjun died already,
so I didn't think it'd matter
even if he was found to be the father.
Goodness.
It must've been fun watching us
bark up the wrong trees.
(sighs)
It was driving me crazy!
-(thumps)
-Keep your voice down.
Calm down. Keep talking
before you go crazy.
(sobs)
I swear.
I didn't know she was a minor.
The home visits ended without any trouble.
-About our math test
-Based on students
and the grades they're in
-Was it easy?
-It's all going well
STUDENT 6: Song Haeun! What are you doing?
Let's go upstairs.
(tense music)
-Sir?
-Yes.
PRINCIPAL: Ever since that day,
I couldn't get away from her.
HAEUN: Why do you act
like you don't know me?
I don't understand what you're saying.
I have the texts and call history.
I record it every time,
in case they run off without paying me.
(playing piano keys)
You have everything you need,
so why did you do such a thing?
(scoffs)
What about you?
You have a wife and a child.
You have everything you need,
so why did you do it?
You adults always blame us
without reflecting on yourselves.
(scoffs)
Darn old people.
(exhales sharply)
I'd like to benefit
from my teacher's favors from now on.
(beeping)
2021 2ND SEMESTER FINALS
ALL SUBJECTS
PRINCIPAL: I sneaked away
the exam papers for test printing.
(sighs)
No wonder Haeun couldn't come clean.
(knocks on door)
Come in.
I came to give this back to you.
What are you doing?
You asked me to drag time!
PRINCIPAL: Take this.
You're a temporary teacher there.
Don't you want to work at Taewon High?
It's exam season. That's why.
I'm sorry.
I apologize.
PRINCIPAL: This is my fault.
(principal sobbing)
It's my fault. I'm sorry.
(grunts)
I found the exam papers for test printing.
2021 2ND SEMESTER MIDTERM
KOREAN, TES
(tense music)
Haeun.
Was it all a lie that you placed first?
MRS. SONG: Tell me.
(breathes heavily)
I can't believe this.
Is it more devastating
than your daughter's pregnancy?
What?
(cell phone buzzes)
Hello?
The test result is out.
I'll text it to you.
(cell phone buzzes)
PERCENTAGE OF PATERNITY:
99.99998% (POSITIVE)
(sighs)
Can I have a word with you, Haeun?
SEUNGJUN, HAEUN
HOGAE: I guess you two were close.
Whatever.
PATERNITY TEST RESUL
PERCENTAGE OF PATERNITY:
99.99998% (POSITIVE)
COMPARATIVE SUBJECT: OH SEUNGJUN
(somber music)
Did you not know?
HAEUN: Seungjun, thank you.
Thanks to you, I placed first
for our cram school's recent unit test.
That's all?
I thought you liked me, too.
If you want to date someone,
wait until you go to college.
Haeun.
My old man cared only about what was seen
just like your mom.
Growing up under such a parent,
you come to have a twisted personality.
Well, so what?
If I could meet the untwisted me,
I'd say just one thing.
"It's not your fault.
You're only a little child."
Yes, what you did was wrong.
But it wasn't entirely your fault.
I know you're pulling a trick
to make me come clean
like my stupid brother.
I'm sorry.
The adults are at fault.
Jeez, stop being so melodramatic.
If at least one of the adults around you
had genuinely cared for you,
things would've been different.
I said stop.
(somber music)
I know it was hard on you.
(sobbing)
(somber music)
-(body thuds)
-(people screaming)
WOMAN 1: Somebody, help!
Oh, my.
Hurry!
(people clamoring)
(sobbing)
It was
It was wrong of me.
NURSES: Happy birthday, dear Heesook ♪
Happy birthday to you ♪
-Happy birthday.
-Blow out the candle.
-(blows air)
-(all cheer)
HEESOOK: Thank you.
-Happy birthday.
-Look.
Seol.
I'm a bit late.
I bought a birthday cake for you.
Why didn't you come together?
-Together?
-DOJIN: You're here.
Your coffee is here.
Wait, what? You did it without me?
(all chuckle)
DOJIN: I wanted to do it with you.
You got lots of cakes this year.
-Thank you, Dojin.
-Thank you.
Have some coffee.
I heard the ER had another teenager
who attempted suicide.
(sighs)
The babies in there
are struggling desperately to survive.
But some kids are desperate to die.
Oh, right. If you have time,
stay for a part-time job.
Another unnamed newborn baby came in.
My shift starts later today,
so I need to go.
I'll come when I'm off duty.
All right.
Ma'am, Soyeon's showing a color change
in her toes.
NURSE: Can you take a look?
It may be a blood clot.
How's the oxygen saturation?
DOJIN: Seol, let's go.
DOJIN: I was going to leave
after giving her the cake,
but she made me stay and eat with them.
SEOL: I almost forgot
that it was her birthday.
You're better than me.
You've been busy lately
with Haeun's case and all.
How is it that you never change?
-Me?
-Yes.
In any difficult or dangerous situation,
you stay calm and handle it.
You're like a bulldozer that never stops.
(scoffs)
That's an exaggeration.
DOJIN: I just don't think much.
I do it because it's my job.
And because no one else can do it.
(light music)
Thanks, Dojin.
You're being awkwardly strange today.
I'm just saying it,
because I always take from you.
I'm rather grateful to you.
Whenever I become numb
to cases and rescue operations,
you help me get back on track.
This is why I feel like
a very nice person when I'm with you.
Let's go.
You're a nice person. That's true.
(Seol chuckles)
SONG HAEUN NEWBORN BABY ABANDONMENT CASE
Hey, Specially Related.
I thought you'd want
to hear about Haeun's case.
I heard.
That you dug deeply into it
when it wasn't even worth a promotion.
You said you lost your chances twice.
It must not happen again.
You said that one person was enough
to hold back a child's decision to die.
So
I studied her quietly.
HOGAE: She was indeed a kid.
Wait.
Well
I was too scared to check,
but what was
the baby's gender?
How did you answer?
It was hard.
What
(cell phone buzzing)
What a surprise to get a call from you.
Could we meet for a moment now?
I have a few questions.
You're welcome at any time.
I'm waiting for something, anyway.
Do you hardly eat these days?
Yes, I need to have something healthy
and delicious like this one.
HOGAE: Mmm
By the way,
-that
-I didn't tell her much.
I'm not going to tell you now.
Later, when you're old enough
to take responsibility for your choices,
I'll tell you then.
SEOL: That answer isn't like you.
I saw a resemblance in us.
Were you on bad terms with your parents?
I mean, your father was a little
cold-hearted.
I'm full.
You can guess
how lonely I was when growing up.
You shouldn't say that
to an orphan like me.
Who knows?
I think your situation
was better than mine.
You even have an adoptive mother
whose walk you remember so clearly.
(soft music)
It's still not too late.
Try to find someone
like that.
I thought you of all people would know.
MISSING CHILD
KIM HYUNSEO (12 YEARS OLD, FEMALE)
Why are you suddenly interested
in this case?
Sometimes, one's dark and deep wound
tells a lot about the person.
I'm just being curious.
Then you came to the right person.
I conducted the autopsy
on the victim's toes seven years ago.
(camera shutter clicks)
(tense music)
HONG: Let's begin.
What do you think happened
to the toes' owner?
HONG: Even if she's alive,
she won't be able to walk.
But I was left with a question.
(foreboding music)
YOUNGSOO: What are you doing?
Aren't you done with the autopsy?
HONG: I want to sew up her toes at least.
If they were going to kill her,
why cut off the toe?
(foreboding music)
KIM HYUNSEO (12 YEARS OLD, FEMALE)
NOTE: BOTH HER BIG TOES ARE CUT OFF
CHULJOONG: It seems my son made
a huge discourtesy to your family.
Even if I had known
that Detective Jin Hogae of Taewon Police
was your son,
I would've taken the same measure.
He needs to be punished for his crime.
I feel a little offended
talking to you like this.
You're certainly right.
I think you're mistaken. I rather
would like to give thanks.
That's why I asked to see you.
You are not asking me
to drop the charges against him?
Right now, I need to focus
on something bigger.
(ominous music)
I was once told
that the wilder a Jindo dog is,
you need to keep a tighter leash on him.
(scoffs)
This office will be
used for the presidential election camp.
It's nice and spacious.
The party election is in the bag for sure
and you need this much space
for your big plan
until the presidential election.
You found the right place.
So I even invited you over
to make an important decision.
(laughs)
Assemblyman Ma, the professor is here.
Let me introduce him to you.
CHIYOUNG: He's renowned to be
a skilled interior designer
in business circles.
He's been in charge of strategic
floor planning for a large conglomerate
He tends to be shy around strangers.
Please begin.
The spirits are going wild
due to the lack of devotion.
(Chiyoung chuckles)
-Just a moment
-He's saying
that planning is up to the energy
rather than bearing.
A spirit in the east,
and a spirit in the west,
putting down the murderous energy,
the spirit in the west
Murderous energy is coming from that side.
It's coming from the northwest.
Across the center
A vein of water runs in the center.
These two energies must be blocked out
to stop the fatal energy to strike.
That's what he's saying.
Based on this water vein,
to eliminate this fatal energy for good
(exhales deeply)
I see spirits swarming in
to take over the space.
Where?
Oh, that way.
For smooth communication,
the water vein
That side is northwest.
The gate, in the northwest.
And the main room should be
in the southwest. That's right here.
This room should be for the future king
So this place is where we'll find victory.
I mean, it will be your office.
Look at him trying so hard.
I thought you got kicked out
for not taking proper care of Ma Taehwa.
You're quite tenacious.
Did you think my connection with Masong
would end that easily?
Whoever received a scholarship
from Masong Foundation is very loyal,
because they intentionally
offer scholarships
to those in a helpless situation.
(sighs)
Let's please be on good terms.
We might be seeing each other often
from now on.
(scoffs)
WOMAN 2: Come with me.
MAN 2: Okay.
(woman 2 giggling)
Just a bit.
You poured too much.
You're mixing soju with a piña colada.
And grilled tenderloin with green plums
for a drinking snack.
And did you guys listen
to Coldplay's album on your way here?
Who is this woman?
I told him about that music
and brought him here.
Thanks for letting him know
of a delicious place.
(upbeat music playing)
I bought this for you, too.
Then take it off, stupid cow.
(chuckling)
(clanks)
You crazy little
(ominous music)
(sirens wailing)
(suspenseful music)
Go faster. Step on it.
I am driving fast.
The man has a weapon.
HOGAE: Those guys might go in
recklessly again.
Since when did you care so much
about the fire crew?
A left turn? Wait.
You have to come with us.
Jeez. The light changed.
Sorry.
-What are you looking at?
-Please make way!
-We're from the medical service.
-Let us through.
What are you filming?
(whimpers)
Let me check your hand, sir.
(people gasp)
DOJIN: Hey.
What are you doing?
Hey. Hurry up and treat Sooyeon.
Or I'll kill this bastard.
(whimpers)
We're giving her first aid.
So hurry up with it.
(panting)
We're doing it.
So, put that down.
Please don't do this.
Dongwoo, it's okay.
Please
SEOL: I can see a cut wound on her head.
There seems to be cerebrospinal fluid
mixed in the nosebleed.
It could be brain damage.
Did you hear her? Your girlfriend needs
to be taken to the hospital right now.
There's nothing we can do for her here.
Then just what is it that you can do?
We will help her survive!
So put that down.
(ominous music)
(siren wailing)
Wait for me! Jeez.
MAN 2: Do something!
-HOGAE: Are you okay?
-Who are you, bastard?
-Dongwoo.
-MAN 2: Let go!
Let go of me, you bastard!
I don't think it reached the muscle.
-MAN 2: Darn!
-Excuse me.
You should've been grateful
that the medical service came.
Instead, you made the police come, too.
(groaning)
Let go. Let go of me!
MAN 2: Let go!
So what if you're from the police?
You have no right to assault a civilian!
-I'll kill you!
-Detective, look here.
Let go. Hey, stand up.
-You'll kill who?
-They're filming.
-Stand up. You'll do what?
-Let go!
You just assaulted someone.
-Should I just kill you
-Knock it off before I kill you.
-HOGAE: Are you with this bastard?
-PIL: Stop it.
Enough!
SEOL: Move. Help him up.
(panting)
SEOL: Let me see your hand.
Aah!
Dojin, we need to take him
to the hospital quickly.
-Okay.
-Fire crew, take the more injured one.
You're going with us.
I'm injured, too.
Government power is there
to hurt the likes of you.
You bastard.
Please make way. We're coming through.
HOGAE: Go!
(man 2 groaning)
MAN 2: Get off me!
Aah
Thank goodness, it's not too serious.
(sighs)
I might die early,
dealing with drunk people.
Things would've been bad for us
if Detective Jin hadn't shown up in time.
Are you okay, Dongwoo?
I should've taken measures sooner.
I'm sorry.
Why would you be sorry?
The police are there to protect us
at times like this.
(sighs)
That's right. We're civilians, too.
But, Seol
Maybe I was mistaken about Detective Jin.
I think he's nice.
DONGWOO: He was so cool back there.
We take the blows all the time.
At times like this,
I'm jealous of the police.
SEOL: As if.
-PIL: Move.
-MAN 2: Get off me.
-What? What is this?
-PIL: Let us through.
Ask the lab for all the blood they have.
She needs a blood transfusion first.
Sir, where should we take him?
Lay him there.
-Her boyfriend assaulted her.
-Where should we take her?
Let's do a CT scan on her first.
If she has a skull fracture,
we'll send her straight to the OR.
Ma'am, what's going on over there?
That unidentified patient
was found unconscious in front of the ER.
I think she attempted suicide.
SOOJIN: His injury is not an emergency.
Give him an IV drip
and wait until he sobers up.
I'm injured, too, so treat me.
Look at this blood!
You want special treatment?
Then shed a liter of blood or something!
Why, that little
Hey, do you want me
to make you shed that much blood?
What are you looking at?
Identify him until he sobers up.
If he keeps refusing, get his fingerprint.
I'll get his fingerprint.
PIL: You better be careful around him.
He could actually make you shed blood.
(background chatter)
(ominous music)
Seol.
DOJIN: Let's go now.
Okay.
Dojin.
Wouldn't it be difficult to walk
without a big toe?
Probably. Quite a lot of load
is placed on the big toes.
How strange. She didn't seem
to have put on an artificial foot.
Who do you mean?
The patient who attempted suicide.
She didn't have a big toe.
I doubt she had it amputated
due to diabetes at that age.
Which side was it? Not both feet, right?
It was her right foot.
I didn't get to see her left foot.
I see.
DISPATCHER: A child fell
at Handong Playground in 891 Woosung-dong.
Dispatch for medical teams.
We'll go.
Excuse me. Hello.
Hello.
Haven't we met before?
Have we?
Did you say you worked
at Taewon Police Station before?
Oh, yes.
Oh.
(chuckles)
Maybe that's why you look familiar.
You could be.
Right.
Well, then. I'll see you around.
Bye.
What's with that bastard?
SOOJIN: Her blood pressure is stable
at 90 over 60.
Her heart blood circulation
is back to normal.
Then why isn't she waking up?
It's not hypovolemic shock, is it?
That's a little strange.
But to use an antidote on her,
we must know what she took.
ANTIDOTE: A POISONING REVERSAL AGEN
Give her an antidote for hypersomnia.
-We've got to do something.
-SOOJIN: Okay.
-Please have it ready.
-Sure.
SEOL: Ma'am.
(boy crying)
DOCTOR 1: Lay him here.
-He's an eight-year-old boy.
-Yes.
He fell from the swings
while playing at a playground.
SEOL: We put a splint on his right foot.
-Please check if he has a fracture.
-Okay.
It's all right.
(monitor beeping)
(tense music)
She woke up.
Ma'am, can you hear me?
You're at a hospital.
Uh Uh
Can you speak? Do you have hearing
or speaking impairment?
Does anyone know sign language here?
I do.
We need to know
what kind of pills she took.
Okay.
(mouthing)
Are you okay?
You are at a hospital.
Do you remember
taking any pills?
(foreboding music)
(mouths)
(quivering)
JAEHEE: She's having a shock.
-Give her a sedative.
-SOOJIN: Get a sedative.
Inserting sedative.
(monitor beeping rapidly)
(monitor beeping steadily)
SEOL: If it's congenital,
she should know sign language
or read others' lips, but she can't.
It's unlikely she didn't go to school
for her age.
Let's check.
(tense music)
JAEHEE: I see long-term damage
in her laryngeal nerve.
The wounds were made differently
at different times.
Does this mean it was scratched slightly
each time over years?
Could it be
done on purpose so she couldn't speak?
It may not be attempted suicide.
JAEHEE: In the worst case,
she may have been abused.
We better do a CT scan on her
and check if she has other injuries.
NURSE: I'll have it ready.
One, two, three.
(ominous music)
HONG: If they were going to kill her,
why cut off the toe?
You got his info, right? Let's go now.
No, he fell asleep
after getting a sedative.
His girlfriend is being treated.
When will you leave his side, then?
Are you his caregiver?
Oh, let's get the footage
from the bar, too.
It'll be a pain if he claims
that it was a mutual fight.
Goodness, let's go.
Let me clean up first.
-Detective Jin, wait.
-What is it?
That patient
(ominous music)
HYUNSEO: Detective.
(suspenseful music)
-Where's that patient?
-What?
Where is she? Who brought her here?
She's unidentified
and they found her unconscious by the ER.
They took her for a CT scan.
What
Where is he going?
-He went that way.
-PIL: Detective Jin!
Detective Jin, where are you going?
Detective Jin!
Where are you going?
Where's the patient who just came in?
-DOCTOR 2: What are you doing?
-Where is she?
We received the request,
but the patient hasn't come yet.
PIL: Detective Jin.
Check the entire footage of this hospital.
Have Anna check the footage
of the nearby roads. There's no time.
Why are you suddenly doing this?
That patient is Kim Hyunseo,
who went missing seven years ago.
Follow this man.
(suspenseful music)
I don't see them.
The abductor evaded all the cameras.
He must've taken a car to move her.
(line rings)
Did you find them?
No, they're nowhere to be found.
I think he went through the blind spots.
Did you take her blood sample?
Yes, we needed to know her blood type
for a blood transfusion.
Ms. Yun, I need you
to do something urgently.
ANALYSIS REPOR
HONG: It's a match.
That patient
COMPARATIVE SUBJECT: KIM HYUNSEO
HONG: It's Kim Hyunseo.
(suspenseful music)
I see.
Issue a Code Zero.
The golden hour for abduction is one hour.
We're catching that bastard within that.
Detective Jin,
this was prepared for a long time.
The child had something
to show us desperately.
This. Don't you think
it was made intentionally?
I took a picture of it
in case it'd be a trace of abuse.
JAEHEE: The color's light.
I don't think it was tattooed
by a tattooist,
but manually done into the dermis
with a sharp lead or something.
She tattooed it herself?
(inhales sharply)
(tense music)
(breathes sharply)
It's a view from below, right?
Oh, right. Her skin was too pale.
It's possible she didn't see
the sun for a long time.
PIL: Then she probably drew it
from the basement floor.
(suspenseful music)
Only if it were a bit clearer.
I'm not sure what's what.
She did it on purpose
to avoid getting suspected.
PIL: Crosses?
Church steeples.
You know your way about Taewon.
Yes.
ANNA: These dots in the sky.
I think it's an airplane.
DOJIN: You're right.
All airplanes take the same course
based on the ILS.
Dojin, do you remember where in Taewon
you can see the airplane course?
The airplane course?
The airplane course Hold on.
(suspenseful music)
Here.
TAEWON-GU
I think this is it.
ANNA: There are a total of six buildings
depicted on this tattoo.
And it isn't clear,
but there are
a few surrounding objects, too.
I'll mark the corresponding buildings
on the 3D database
of Taewon-gu's satellite picture.
Find a place that has two church steeples
with similar heights
-on the map.
-Sure.
ANNA: Say this is the ground, Dojin.
If you're 170 cm tall, the horizontal line
is located 4.7 km outward.
But from a basement floor
If you're in the basement,
your height should be considered zero.
(suspenseful music)
So it's less than 3 km.
ANNA: A 3-kilometer radius
of where those buildings are visible.
It's Hwajoong-dong.
DISPATCHER: Find every semi-basement house
facing southeast in Hwajoong-dong.
(suspenseful music)
CHULJOONG: Yes, Judge Song.
I received the document just now.
DISMISSAL REPOR
NAME: JIN HOGAE
(suspenseful music)
(sirens wailing)
DISPATCHER:
The targeted area is Hwajoong-dong.
Search every semi-basement house
facing southeast.
I'm glad you're here.
It's better the more resources we have.
CHULJOONG: You must be busy.
A Code Zero has been issued.
If it's not urgent
I wouldn't be here myself at this hour
if it weren't.
(tense music)
HWAJOONG 3 DONG COMMUNITY CENTER
This is where Hyunseo used to live?
Let's go somewhere else.
Let's check here first.
She wouldn't have been confined
near her home.
HYUNSEO: Who'd leave something like this
on someone else's doorstep?
There's a stalker. It's really unsettling.
The best way to avoid being traced
is to hide in an unexpected place.
(intense music)
-Let's search in groups of three.
-Yes, ma'am.
-Good.
-Let's spread out.
SOON: Officer Song and Dongwoo,
the child must be treated
as soon as she's found.
Pay attention to the radio.
-Yes, ma'am.
-Sure.
DISPATCHER: Taewon Police.
Three officers currently searching.
-Let's go in here.
-Okay.
(tense music)
SEOL: Here.
She's not here.
OFFICER: Hwajoong-dong 39-gil, clear.
Hwajoong-dong 17-gil, clear.
-Let's check this place.
-All right.
OFFICER: Hwajoong-dong 38-gil, clear.
SEOL: Hwajoong-dong 31-gil,
no semi-basement houses.
Why don't we check this place too?
(suspenseful music)
-Did you find anything?
-Nothing.
Hwajoong-dong 1-gil, clear. Let's go.
Hwajoong-dong 27-gil, no one found.
-Let's move to the next spot.
-Let's go.
(ominous music)
(cell phone buzzing)
Hello, Ms. Yun.
HONG: There's something you should know.
DOJIN: Go on.
HONG: About Hyunseo's toes.
The toes were found
in Detective Jin's house seven years ago.
He was suspected of abducting
and murdering her because of it.
(camera shutter clicks)
HONG: Detective Jin has a lot
of hard feelings against the abductor.
I'm telling you this
out of concern for the abductor.
What?
I don't want to meet the abductor
in the autopsy room.
Or it could be the other way around
in the worst case.
I want you to stop Jindo Dog
before he loses control.
I understand.
-Stop the car.
-What?
Why? What is it? Detective Jin.
PIL: Why
Detective Jin. What is it?
What is it? Did you find something?
No, I'll drive.
Wait, Detective Jin.
What are you doing?
Detective!
What are you doing? No!
(Pil yelps)
Oh
Are you okay?
Why are you doing this?
(panting)
(suspenseful music)
I'll ask for backup,
so the special forces
can break in right away
PIL: Darn it.
-Give it to me.
-What?
(glass shattering)
(lock clicks)
Come in.
(tense music)
PIL: Detective!
HOGAE: There's something behind it.
Pull it.
(grunts)
(suspenseful music)
Detective. Are you going down there?
What the
(panting)
What's wrong?
(foreboding music)
Hello.
Did you say you worked
at Taewon Police Station before?
-(screaming)
-(glass shatters)
(breathing heavily)
(suspenseful music)
(breathing heavily)
THE FIRST RESPONDERS
(closing theme music)
HOGAE: What is it that you want?
ABDUCTOR: Your real face.
It was me! I ordered it.
-I'll just do my job.
-When will you stop acting out?
HOGAE: Move aside.
Hyunseo!
Hyunseo.
DOJIN: Everyone, stop! It may explode!
Do not enter!
Seol, stop!
HOGAE: Do it on me instead.
Darn it. This is too boring.
ABDUCTOR: It's still not too late.
Let's go to hell together.
(thuds)
