(2 years ago)
How is Dong Baek doing?
Is he adjusting well?
Yes, he's been quiet lately.
It hasn't been that long since
he got kicked out of Metro.
Is that so?
Then how about from now on?
- Pardon?
- How do you think he'll behave?
Well, he's known to be very unusual.
- And he does whatever he wants
- He's hard to control, right?
But he's kind at heart,
so with a little bit of help
And what?
The support of the police
will act as a stepping stone
to help him succeed even more.
- Captain Koo.
- Yes, sir?
How about this?
Let's not become someone who supports him.
Let's be the person who receives his help.
- Okay?
- But sir
That will be good
for both the police force
and Dong Baek himself.
Do you understand?
Yes, I understand what you mean.
If that's the case,
make him write a resignation letter.
Let's have him get dismissed
and only use him when we need his power.
He can help solve violent crimes
Detective Dong won't accept that.
From what I heard, he's
always been very fond of you.
I'm also not sure if
that's the right thing
Captain Koo.
There's no right or wrong when
it comes to the organization.
It's just a matter of making a choice.
Let's drink.
Gosh, come on. This isn't fair.
Old Man, I brought some guests.
- My gosh.
- Shut it.
Gosh, that stings.
Is it fun to play detective?
I'm having a blast.
Do you know that people with
power are scared because of you?
Why? Is someone scared
about getting caught?
Those guys lived
comfortably all their lives.
But they might lose
everything because of you.
So of course, they're nervous.
Are you telling me to quit
my job so the bad guys
- can live in peace?
- No, it's not that.
There are lots of other fun things to do.
If you become a celebrity,
you can get all the attention you want.
You can't kick me out.
I'm not trying to kick you out.
I'm not going to quit until you retire.
Because of you,
I even gave up trying to fix my hair loss.
I might die early because of stress.
That hurts. Can you take this off for me?
Come here.
Why are you trying to caress me?
Caress, my foot.
Do it gently. It hurts.
Gosh, it's cold.
Don't try to fight against
those who hate you
and just find what makes you happy.
You can hate me if you want.
No.
Detective Dong.
Catch them!
Sir!
- Sir!
- Darn it.
- No
- Run.
Sir!
- Sir!
- Oh, gosh.
- Sir, are you okay?
- Wake up.
What are you doing? Call 911!
- Are you okay?
- Please hurry up!
- Is this 911?
- I'm okay.
- It doesn't hurt at all.
- Someone got hurt.
Please hurry.
His condition? Just get
here as fast as you can.
Sir!
(Operating Room)
(Restricted Area, Operating Room)
(Officer Oh Se Hoon)
The receiver cannot be reached.
You will be directed to voicemail.
You will be charged after
(The innocent shall be
crucified in place of the sinner.)
(Restricted Area, Operating Room)
He'll be okay.
Dad!
Mom, what are we going to do?
Where is Uncle Baek?
He'll be here.
But right now, he's busy.
What are we going to do?
Se Hoon.
We got paged, so we need to go.
Okay.
Call me once the surgery ends.
The doctor doesn't know yet.
We'll need to wait and see.
We're all cops here. Show some respect.
Is this really necessary?
His life is at risk.
That's enough.
Gosh, that darn old man.
He's so slow. I can't believe
he couldn't dodge that.
It's like he's trying to
make me feel guilty.
This is all because of Dong Baek.
It's not because of him.
I'm the one who volunteered.
Why would you volunteer?
You're about to retire soon.
Do you expect me to sit back
and watch a kid fight by himself?
He's not a normal kid.
Yes, he's not normal.
He's a real pain in the neck.
- My gosh.
- But you see,
he's no different from our kids.
He laughs when he's in a good mood,
and he cries when he's sad.
Then he shouts when he gets angry.
He may be different, but
that's only a small part.
He's a normal human being just like us.
Plus, he can't do anything without me.
My goodness, you're unbelievable.
I'm serious.
- My gosh.
- Baek.
What? Why?
Come on. Let's go inside.
- Sir.
- Hey, it's Dong Baek.
We came to watch your interview.
Gosh, we don't need to watch that.
There it is.
What kind of person is Detective Dong?
He's an amazing young man.
Oh, I see.
How exactly is he amazing?
Well, you can say that
we're like father and son.
We care for each other
like any other family
The medicine I took is making me drowsy.
Goodness.
Father. Father?
What was up with that interview?
- Father, get up and talk to me.
- Just let me rest.
Dad?
Give me back the remote control.
Dad, come on.
(Memorist: Ep 15, Flesh and Blood)
- Dad!
- Honey!
- Honey, open your eyes.
- Dad
Honey, please open your eyes.
- Coming through.
- Wake up, will you?
Open your eyes.
Honey!
He passed out the moment he got here.
Isn't Detective Dong overexerting himself?
He's awake.
Sure, I'll get back to you.
Are you all right?
You should rest a little more.
What about the old man?
The surgery went well but
I can take it, so tell me.
He hasn't gained consciousness.
I'm sure he'll soon wake up though.
You can't. The hospital is
crawling with prosecutors
and officers from the Intelligence bureau.
And Ms. Eun Soo Kyung?
They're looking for her. I just
talked to Superintendent Han.
Detective.
Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere.
I'll be in the next room.
Give me some time alone.
Let me go there instead then.
No, you should get some rest.
It might be your last for a while.
Thank you.
Prosecutor Woo Seok Do?
I was hoping to introduce
myself in a formal setting,
but I guess things are too urgent for that.
Could we perhaps have a few words?
Go ahead.
I know you have grave
interest in Detective Dong,
but I'd appreciate you
turning it down a notch.
The prosecution being
interested in a criminal
isn't the NIS's concern.
Detective Dong isn't a criminal.
We'll see about that.
I also know of a criminal.
There's this guy who got a victim killed
by trying to cover up a
chief prosecutor's scandal.
I'm just saying since
you're interested in criminals.
It's a pleasure to meet
you, Deputy Chief Lee.
I'm Chief Kim of the NIS.
Ms. Son, what brings you by?
I didn't take you for a coward,
but here you are lying about your identity.
Is this about Dong Baek?
I knew you'd figure it out.
I'm afraid there's nothing I
can help you with though.
Shall we?
This won't go your way.
It won't.
(Chairwoman Hwang Pil Seon)
I'm Prosecutor Woo Seok Do of
the Central Prosecutors' Office.
I was told by the prosecutor
general to help you in any way I can.
The culprit has been identified,
so he'll be put down soon.
- And the brat?
- The same goes for Dong Baek.
But first, there's something
we need to sort out.
It requires a promise
from the prosecutors' office.
- A promise?
- A non-indictment.
Dong Baek's death will
turn the world upside down.
The press will have a field day
and the prosecution will use this chance
to point its swords.
So you need me to guarantee
a non-indictment?
This isn't something I
can decide on my own.
I already cleared it with your boss.
Then why do you need my word too?
Incompetent.
- Sorry?
- Your boss is incompetent.
He shouldn't have let this get
so far, but look at this mess.
It's like we're criminals
discussing our next crime.
- I apologize, ma'am.
- Save it.
So what'll it be?
Do you really want the
prosecution to spend its resources
cleaning up after others?
No, ma'am. That ends right here.
I'll handle the situation myself
so that you never have
to be concerned anymore.
That's the spirit.
I hope you'll keep it that way.
You remind me of
how your boss was six years ago.
Once you lose your drive,
your power and authority disappear with it.
Former Assemblyman Bang Joon Seok,
who was assaulted by Detective Dong,
went back to helping the police
find his wife despite
recommendations from his doctors.
If Detective Dong truly is an accomplice,
then I plead to him.
Please let my wife go.
The police have declared
Detective Dong's assault
as an act of terror
and announced that they'd
arrest him immediately.
Detective Dong's assault on
Mr. Bang added to the suspicion
of him being the Eraser's accomplice.
The serial killer known as the Eraser
made a threat against Detective Dong,
but many suspect that it was a trick
to mask the relationship between them.
Fear is now increasing among the public
Let me attend to your bruise.
What's your relationship with him?
Sorry?
You and Moon Yong Gang.
I don't think I follow, sir.
Did you think I wouldn't know?
- There's nothing going on.
- Then why
did you visit him at the hospital?
Well
Have you been scheming with him?
Did he offer you money
for helping to kill me?
Look at me.
Look at me, darn it.
If you're not working together,
are you two intimate?
We are not.
There's really nothing between us.
I knew from the get-go.
At first, you looked like
you wanted something from me.
Gosh. But you got together
with a lowlife like him.
You're so cheap.
I'll go now.
What a shame.
I would've put you in the pool
of potential second
wives once my wife died.
Keep an eye on her.
Yes, sir.
What are you doing?
I was just
Just what?
Just Well Thinking?
Should I take a guess?
What are you doing?
You were thinking about me.
Am I wrong?
Yes.
Darn it.
I'm jealous.
I wish I could read
people's memories like you.
It's not good at all.
Why not? I think it would be awesome.
It isn't.
People's memories
aren't as nice as you think.
There are so many
things I wish I never knew.
I'm sure there are some that
you're happy about knowing.
I'm not sure. Were there any?
Here.
Take it out if you need.
All of my memories.
I've been
thinking especially
more about you recently.
Made you smile.
See? Your ability made
at least two people happy.
Baek.
Your ability
may be able to make a
great number of people happy.
Then eventually
the world may change
and become a better place.
Can it
Can it really change?
I'd like to make a statement.
Please don't kill me.
Please?
I've already
saved many people.
I know you're a good person.
So please
There's no rule
that says a good person can't become bad.
Rather, I've been too good a person.
So the pain that I've suffered
feels even more unfair.
Things like that
shouldn't happen
to me
and to my baby.
Don't you agree?
20 years ago,
I went abroad to rescue
people after an earthquake.
I suddenly had to rush home.
They said my daughter had died.
But it wasn't a natural death.
I had seen many deaths
during my years as a firefighter.
Even when my wife died,
I wasn't as afraid as I was that day.
They said
she had committed suicide.
However,
that wasn't true.
I wish
I never found out.
Yoo Ah Young?
So Philip?
Darn it. What are you doing here?
I'm taking pictures.
What about you?
My friend owns this land.
All of this
is his.
Bang Joon Seok.
Don't you know him?
That's right. We go to
different schools now.
Darn it. What's wrong with me?
Were you
drinking?
Something much better.
See you later.
Darn it.
You should pay an access fee
for entering someone else's land.
What?
Want a drink?
It'll take you to paradise.
Those jerks trampled on Ah Young.
But that wasn't where their sins ended.
Hey. Look at this.
Here are some more.
Come on.
What is it?
Come on, don't do it.
I asked, what is it?
Moon Yong Dae?
Darn it.
Where's Ah Young?
Why you
Get him!
I can't stand your eyes. They annoy me.
He burned Yong Dae.
And while he was still alive,
he threw him off a cliff.
That day,
two children were killed
by your husband, Bang Joon Seok!
My child's friend died that very day,
but my child
Hey.
Detective Lee, what brings you here?
You really need to come to your senses
if you don't want to rot in prison.
My daughter lived.
Both her body and mind
were completely destroyed.
But she didn't die.
(Gynecologist, Jeong Hyeong Sik)
I don't see any signs of resistance.
Ah Young, I believe you.
But some people could
take this the wrong way.
Imagine how sad your
dad will be if he finds out.
Don't you agree?
You know Moon Yong Dae, right?
I'm not supposed to tell you this.
But he died.
He committed suicide.
Remember that place where
you had fun with those guys?
He died nearby.
I wonder if he saw something there.
She survived that day.
But she died inside
every single day.
I also have a child.
If you let me live, I'll
do anything you ask.
But you see,
after having gone
through something like that,
I finally realized something.
I realized that there's no reason
behind our misfortunes.
I heard about what
happened to Captain Koo
and the guy who did it.
Chun Ki Soo
tried to hit me.
Deputy Chief Lee gave permission to shoot.
He gave permission to shoot and kill.
- Detective Dong.
- What?
Why do you think I'm telling you this?
It's not just the Eraser
that we're fighting against.
You have way too many enemies.
- I know. I'm used to it.
- Don't be.
You need to stay alert.
And there's no need to blame yourself.
If I could have things my
way, I'd keep you off this case.
But you know I won't listen.
Yes, I know. That's
why I'm telling you this.
I'm telling you so you'll watch out.
Are you being considerate?
No, I'm giving you advice
based on the information
I've gathered about you.
So you're giving me advice
out of consideration? That's nice.
I'll keep it in mind.
Thanks a lot.
- Where is Yoo Soon Nam?
- We're trying to trace him.
All we know for now
is that he left the city.
(Situation Room)
(Situation Room)
Hello?
Let me go with you.
No, I need you to stay
and do something for me.
Please do me a favor.
I think I know where Yoo
Soon Nam is. Let's go.
Tell me the specific location.
Yoo Soon Nam's father-in-law
owns a warehouse near the river.
And that's where his car went.
We sent you the address via text.
The SWAT team will be there in 20 minutes.
Okay, thank you.
What's the scoop?
Detective Dong's testimony
regarding the truth
behind the Eraser's murders.
- "Testimony"?
- What if Detective Dong was framed?
- What?
- And what if the murders
were caused by a certain
conglomerate family?
We need to watch it first.
Where is the video?
I'm worried you might get rid of it
so you could destroy Detective Dong.
- Are you kidding me?
- Answer my question first.
Will you release the video
exactly as it is?
Have you lost your mind?
- Ji Eun.
- Yes?
What do you think is most
important to a reporter?
The truth.
The truth is what matters.
And we're all reporters.
That's why we need to tell people
that Detective Dong was framed.
The truth
doesn't come from
outside. It starts from here.
We're the ones who create the truth.
And the truth we need
to create right now
is to make sure that mutant
disappears from this world.
Okay?
Ji Eun, you're still a rookie,
and you don't know much.
We'll give you one more chance.
So stop being so stubborn
and bring us the video clip.
- I can't do that.
- My gosh!
You could go to jail for using
your position to gather information
- and keeping it to yourself.
- You must be mistaken.
I'm the one who just offered
to give you one last chance.
I'll be off now.
Ji Eun!
Ji Eun, wait.
Hey! Your life will be over
once we sue you for compensation
and have you end up in jail!
Ji Eun!
Darn it.
The SWAT team is approaching the place,
but we don't see a hostage anywhere.
You may shoot and kill if
an emergency breaks out.
Yes, sir.
You have permission to shoot and kill.
He's never been this obvious
about his whereabouts.
This isn't the place.
(SWAT)
There's no one at the location.
What on earth?
- Let's go.
- Where?
There's one more place I suspect.
I looked into it and
the professor was right.
It's nearby where Yoo Ah
Young killed herself 20 years ago
by carbon monoxide poisoning.
Got it. Text me the address.
Sure.
Should I call for backup too?
Just Metro. Leave the others in the dark.
Got it.
How did you know?
It's the same for most serial killers.
Murder is a ritual to the Eraser as well.
I knew there was a reason
he came all the way here
even though it'd leave a trace.
Right.
Uncle Dong Baek
You see
I know. He's busy, right?
Yes.
Mom said
that he's 10 times busier
because my dad got hurt.
Yes, that's right.
Just so you know, my
dad can't do anything
without you and Uncle
Dong Baek by his side.
Yes, that's right too.
(Ms. Kang Ji Eun)
Just a second.
Detective Oh, I need your help.
It's for Detective Dong.
Of course.
(57H1019)
Where's Eun Soo Kyung?
Darn him.
- She's still alive.
- Let her go.
Take her from me if you can.
Yoo Soon Nam.
What do you achieve by
hurting Eun Soo Kyung anyway?
Detective Dong Baek
and Superintendent Han Sun Mi.
What do you achieve
by saving her life then?
A sense of relief for
saving an innocent life?
A sense of justify that's
more like a mirage?
What are you trying to say?
There was a time when
those were important to me too.
But you see, those emotions
only mean anything for us humans.
Just cut the crap.
People forget too easily.
A police officer who arrested a perp?
A firefighter who saved a life?
How long do you think people remember that?
I doubt it even lasts a day.
So why would you put yourself in danger
for something that'll easily be forgotten?
Isn't it a waste?
No, I'd never think that.
Actually, you've already realized
that your sense of justice can't
change the ways of this world.
The more you try to help,
the more the world will turn against you.
Remove Detective Dong!
HQ just disassembled our team.
This is not acceptable!
This is to humiliate you
in front of the camera
for the whole world to see.
Dong Baek.
Han Sun Mi.
In order to create a better world,
a true leader must emerge.
Her husband, the former assemblyman.
His crude mother who thinks
money can buy everything.
And the parasitic prosecution,
police, and media outlets!
Not those countless scumbags.
Not those animals behind masks,
but a true leader.
A worshiped idol
and the fear that'll be brought upon
anyone who goes against that said hero.
The fear generated by that hero
is what will give birth to true justice.
Eun Soo Kyung
is actually dying an honorable death.
You scumbag
What are you thinking?
Why is he using her to bargain with us?
That's not the only odd thing.
All this time, he avenged Moon Yong Dae
and Yoo Ah Young in the
way they were wronged.
No!
Murder is a ritual to him.
One that he's obsessed about.
He wouldn't suddenly
change his way of killing.
Eun Soo Kyung isn't in there.
Then where could she be?
Should we make our move?
But what if he really is the Eraser?
Sure thing. Go ahead and kill Ms. Eun.
I'll follow your ways.
- Do you mean it?
- Yes.
On one condition though.
Before you kill her,
I'd like to do a memory scan.
Bang Joon Seok and Hwang Pil
Seon have messed with me too
and I need information
in order to deal with them.
You can do whatever you want afterward.
So what do you say? Do we have a deal?
Did you really think
I'd fall for your trick?
Come on.
If you truly are the Eraser,
you'll incapacitate us
no matter what we do.
Aren't I right?
So open the suitcase. It
doesn't seem too hard to me.
You're not the Eraser.
Take another step
and I'll push her over.
It's fine. She's not in there anyway.
Eun Soo Kyung is in the building!
Tell me. Who's the Eraser?
It's me.
Tell me the truth.
It's me. I'm the Eraser!
- Yoo Soon Nam!
- All that I said to you
was what I heard from him.
I wasn't here today.
It was him
who was here.
You just won't give up.
Remember
what you heard today.
The world cannot improve
using your methods.
And if the world doesn't improve,
you will be nothing but an outsider
who is persecuted forever!
- Chun Ki Soo, drop your gun!
- Drop it!
Drop your gun.
No!
Hey.
Baek! Baek! Are you okay?
Darn it. He was shot.
Hurry. Call an ambulance.
We need a medic. There's
a gunshot victim on the roof.
Baek! Wake up!
- Press on the wound!
- Yes, on the roof.
Wake up!
Press on it!
Yes.
The Eraser died. Dong Baek
was shot and is being transported.
- How is he?
- It won't be easy.
- Confirm.
- But
the NIS suddenly showed up.
What should we do?
- Follow them discreetly.
- Yes, sir.
Where?
- Right now?
- Take it down right away, please.
Please. We need it down by this evening.
Oh no.
That's
In this video, Detective
Dong Baek tells us the truth
- regarding the Eraser.
- Hello, Madam Chairman.
I'd like to make a statement.
Based on the memories that I
saw while hunting the Eraser,
it's a story that began long ago.
20 years ago.
The scumbag who trampled on
and killed innocent young people,
and the mom who caused the
deaths of their surviving families
in order to hide her child's sins.
They are
the real cause that brought
about Eun Soo Kyung's suffering.
Former assemblyman Bang Joon Seok
and Chairwoman Hwang Pil Seon.
And
Deputy Chief Chun Ki Soo,
who followed their orders
and covered up the crimes,
(Detective Dong Baek's Statement
Regarding the Eraser Case)
and Lee Shin Woong,
the deputy chief of the
National Police Agency.
They bribed many people in
order to cover up the murder
and rape committed by Bang
Joon Seok and his friends.
They fabricated false testimonies
and disguised a murder as a suicide.
Moreover, they said unspeakable
things to the rape victim,
who was just a student at the time,
and killed the girl
over and over.
Chun Ki Soo, who covered
up the murder on their orders,
and Lee Shin Woong,
the deputy chief of the
National Police Agency.
Take down what you
posted online right this instant.
No, I will not.
Ji Eun. Do you think
you'll get away with this?
I have no choice.
The most important thing
for a journalist is the truth.
Hey, Ji Eun!
Nice.
You're super cool.
I'm cool and unemployed.
I should do that too.
To Baek
and to Captain Koo. I should
talk to them like that too.
Call me when you get fired.
Okay.
(Dong Baek's Statement)
Do you think Baek will be okay?
Well, he looks completely
not okay, but still.
He'll be okay.
He has a lot of people rooting for him.
Still, Had I known he went to
the scene, I would've gone too.
He needs someone there to hold him back.
You're worried he'll get hurt, aren't you?
No. In case he beats someone up.
He doesn't get hurt easily.
Even if he does, he gets right up
and yanks out the IV needle and
And
Superintendent Han went
with him, so I'm sure he's fine.
I guess so, right?
What are you doing?
Take that video down right now!
It's on servers in other countries too.
We'll find a way.
Darn it.
Darn it.
Mr. Cho.
What do you think you're doing?
I warned you 20 years ago.
That if you don't get your act together,
you'll rot in jail for
the rest of your life.
Do you think you'll get away with this?
Stop.
We need to fix it first.
It's impossible
to make it like none of it happened.
Nothing is impossible for me.
Not in this country.
Just do as you've always
done. Just follow my orders!
- I make the decisions.
- No.
I'll take care of it using my methods.
This is
no longer just your family's problem.
It's my problem as well.
You're going to cut ties with me
now that the situation isn't in your favor?
Do you think you're the only person
who works for me in this country?
Did you forget
who helped you get this far?
Detective Dong, who fell unconscious
after he got shot 15 days ago,
is known to be in a
very critical situation.
According to his doctors,
Detective Dong still hasn't
regained his consciousness.
And the foreign doctors
who came to treat him
are also very pessimistic
about his recovery.
Are you going to keep
staring at me like that?
Are you okay?
Of course.
Did you think
I wouldn't be okay?
But according to the news
Did they say I'm going to die?
You moved the public.
It looks like there's going
to be a special prosecution
for Hwang Pil Seon and Bang Joon Seok.
But of course, it won't be easy.
Everything will turn out great.
Your testimony played a big role.
What's the matter?
Something suddenly came to mind.
What?
I started to wonder if things
would've come this far
if I didn't end up getting hurt.
I tried so hard to make this happen.
But it's proceeding a lot faster
now that people think I'm about to die.
Do you really think
The more you try to help,
the more the world will turn against you.
You will be nothing but an outsider
who is persecuted forever!
Do you really think I'll be loved
once I disappear from this world?
I couldn't stop thinking
about what he said to me.
You should get some rest.
Stop worrying about
that. It doesn't suit you.
Just focus on recovering
so you can return to work.
Hey.
Hey!
What?
Are you Detective Dong?
(If you want to know the truth,
let's meet where it all started.)
Seo Hui Soo.
I will start by telling you the truth.
Dong Baek.
My little brother.
(Memorist)
This document is about a
person with supernatural powers.
Someone other than Detective Dong.
Trace Detective Dong's location. Hurry.
Tell me everything you know.
How can I believe you?
That's when
I realized something.
That's why you killed people
and started taking revenge?
If you think I'm a monster,
just kill me. Kill me!
It's over now.
Shut your mouth and watch.
This is just the beginning.
