"I wonder the look upon death." "This is the fourth skull." "I'm sorry for leaving at a time like this." "Not that I don't understand, but the police need faces reconstructed ASAP." "You're the only hope they have." "I've made up my mind, sir." "You might feel better working at home." "No daily report is necessary." "I never heard your resignation request!" "I'll tell them you're on leave." "You hear me?" " Increase dopamine by 10 micro." " Sir" "Keep it under 80 cc an hour." "She's now stabilized." "It will pass." "It wasn't this bad when you operated on her last year." "Like I said before, your daughter is Beta-allergic." "2 to 3 years of observation is crucial." "Considering cells are adapting, it's pretty normal." "And the transplanted heart needs time to settle in." "Don't be too worried." "But it's gotten worse recently." "How could I not?" "I was wondering..." "What if the donor had heart issues?" "Can I meet the donor's family?" "The heart was fine." "I checked it out myself." "I ensure you." "Doctor?" "I'd like to meet the family just in case." "They don't want to be exposed." "Take her home." "Take her somewhere quiet and peaceful." "Take a good care of her." "She'll be just fine." "Here comes ice-cold beer!" "I thought I was the owner here." "Here you go." "Han-su, should I leave the hospital and open up a cafe too?" "Shut up and drink." "No more doctor-turned cafe owner please." "I know a pediatrician was your childhood dream." "Sun-young, you're the last person to give her advice." "You reconstruct faces for God's sake." "That's right." "Face Reconstruction wasn't even a required course." "Did you take it too?" "I dropped it after the first class." "I don't know what got into her." "She worked harder than anybody in the class." "She simply changed boats." "That's what life is all about." "Your fate changes before you even know it." "That's the fun part of life." "I'm getting thirsty here." "Cut the chitchat and let's make a toast, guys." " To our scuba club!" " Sure." " Cheers!" " Cheers!" "The air is good!" "Today is the first anniversary of our scuba club." "Let's take a picture." "Gather around, guys." "Ready?" "Hey, get your arm off Sun-young." "It doesn't belong there." "Here we go." "One, two..." "Flippers!" "Excited to see grandma?" "We'll go fishing too, Jin." "I bought a fishing pole for you." "Okay?" "Don't be sick, my pumpkin." "Tell me." "Is she really okay?" "Yes." "She just needs some rest." "She'll be better off out here." "I'll wrap things up in Seoul and hurry back." "It's okay, sweetheart." "Her mom was so worried that she smiled too much." "But I haven't seen her smile since her mother died." "My poor baby!" "Daddy, Mommy..." "And this is me." "Her parents sent test results to Cleveland Clinic, requesting a heart transplant on her." "Meanwhile, her conditions have gotten worse." " Cleveland Clinic?" " Yes." "Having no experience with Beta-allergic cases, they refused to accept her." "Moreover, they recommended you for the surgery." "Which means they know that you have a 100% success rate in performing heart transplants on Beta-allergic patients." "What about the match?" "Not found yet." "But I'm sure we'll find one soon." "How?" "By sitting around in here?" " Go find me one now!" " Yes, sir." "This is a great opportunity." "For what?" "The patient's grandfather." "He's the president of Jin-myung Corp." "The 3rd biggest company in the country..." "How does that relate to this?" "If the surgery is successful, he might donate..." "If you have time to daydream, make another round!" "Yes, sir." "Mr. LEE Hyun-min?" "Yes?" "Nice to meet you." "I'm JUNG Sun-young, newcomer to the Institute." "This is the skull you need to..." "Go back." "Wait!" "The director is away on business." "Look." "Name's JUNG Sun-young." "I'm not in any condition to work." "With all due respect..." "Worried I might get in the way?" "Take this back." "I'm not just a messenger." "My job is to assist you to reconstruct it." "Can I have a glass of water?" "I'll fill you in later." "So stop spying on me and leave." "You said the same thing last time and gave me nothing." "How is that my fault?" "This crazy ass melted down the whole body." "Look." "To cover up their crimes, some assholes cut off fingers or pull out teeth." "But melting the body like this..." "What?" "Wait a second." "He melted the whole body." "Why?" "He didn't want us to find out what was wrong with it." "I guess God is watching over her." " Prepare the operation." " Yes, sir." "Scalpel." " ACC on." " ACC on." "Clamps." " Close her up well." " Okay." "What are you doing here alone?" "Jin, let's go home." "Jin?" "Good morning!" "I'm here to help you with the work." "Look, Miss." "I told you the other day." "Name's JUNG Sun-young." "Look, Ms. JUNG." "What's wrong with you?" "Who said you could leave the skull here?" "Fine." "If you won't work on it, I'll take it back." "Go ahead." "I haven't even touched it." "I see you've already started." "Hyun-min." "The skull?" "I understand things are tough for you." "But..." "Think of the victim's family." "Without knowing whether..." "I have one of my own." "Can't you reconsider it?" "Please go back." "That victim has lost a face." "Whoever it was deserves one." "And you can get it back." "Please." "Get in!" "Who are those punks?" "Loan sharks and organ traffickers." "They might know something." "I'll squeeze them out." "I'm also checking the victims' credit card transactions." "Credit cards?" "What for?" "If those female victims sold their organs, it must've been for money, right?" "Right." "That's why I've found out." "They all had their hearts scanned." "Isn't that strange?" "Not to me, man." "Must be a coincidence." "Your ears are fine." "Yet, science and logic can't explain everything." "A psycho-pathologic matter such as an illusion stems from a series of troubles." "It wasn't an illusion." "I saw it clearly." "Right before my eyes..." "It did happen." "I'll prescribe pills for you." "Get some rest." "Try to take it easy and you'll feel much better." "Fine." "I'll find your face back!" "You checked her out, didn't you?" "I sure did." "She had a very unique composition." "It's called Beta-allergy." "I had only read about it until she came to me." "What's Beta-allergy anyway?" "Let me put it this way." "O- type blood can be given to anybody." "But it can only receive from the same type, right?" "Naturally." "Same for Beta-allergy patients." "If organs of a different composition are transplanted, severe side effects result." "Like acute allergic disease..." "That apron looks good on you." "You're gonna sneak off again leaving that behind?" "It's called Love Plant." "It grows well year around." "All it needs to bloom is your love." "Amazing, isn't it?" "Water it every now and then." "It will appreciate it." " Are you always like this?" " What?" "Doing things in your own way, regardless of others' opinions?" "Well, let's get to work." "I always work alone." "And..." "Tell the director that this is it." "Are you always like this?" "Refuse and see what happens?" "We're racing the clock on this one." "I have all the basics down on facial reconstruction." "And I was trained enough to not get in the way." "I've been told that you're the only doctor who can perform a heart transplant on Beta-allergic patients." "That's not entirely true." "It's just that a heart transplant is a complicated procedure." "And with Beta-allergic patients, you never know what might happen on the table." "From what I heard" "Beta allergic heart disease patients run a higher risk of failure." "Neither surgery nor medicine can cure it." "A heart transplant is a must." "Is that correct?" "Yes, that's correct." "It seems you've never had problems finding donors." "We receive help from an Organ Donation Center." "I see." "Thanks for your time." "It's a girl, isn't it?" "On what basis?" "What?" "Any reason to believe the victim is female?" "The skull is rather small." "For a man, a mastoid usually sits below the back of the skull." "But it's the other way around for this one." "The chin is almost rounded." "And the front R is vertical, not askew." "Oh!" "The angular bone is quite sharp which is also good evidence." "Children and females' skulls share many similarities." "So don't jump to conclusions." "Internet searching is much faster." "Type Dr. YOON on the net and see how many come up." "Will you go through them all?" "Get to it!" "What are you doing?" "Who told you to touch it?" " I was just..." " You made facial muscles too thick!" " By theory, it's..." " Theory?" "What theory?" "One that says facial muscles can't be this thin?" "Listen." "What muscle is this?" "Masseter muscle." "Considering the smooth surface, neither masseter muscle nor zygomatic major can be thick." "Facial muscles vary distinctively by the person." "That's why we look different." "Touch my face." "Here." "Masseter muscle." "Zygomatic major." "They're different from yours." "If not sure, touch yours." "Here." "And here." "Your hair." "What?" "Do something about it, will you?" "My hair?" "It's quite distracting." "Let's see." "What should I do with it?" "Satisfied?" "Wanna give it a shot?" "Seriously?" "This is the most important part." "If the finishing touch is off, you will end up creating a whole new face." " What?" " Your hand." "It's okay now." "Feels better." "I'd often feel my fingers going numb too." "Anything on my face?" "I just wanna look at a living person's face." "We've been seeing only dead ones." "You do smile!" "I thought you were a rock." "Hello?" "What?" "Where are you now?" "Okay." "Hyun-min!" " Mother." " Oh, you're here." " Can you believe this?" " Jin." "I was so scared." "She was burning up and so pale." "Doctors have no idea what the problem is." "Why does this keep happening?" "Only God knows!" " Doctor!" " Yes?" "We'll change hospitals." "Why would you do that?" "You say she's fine, but she's getting worse!" "What are you talking about?" "Her heart is perfectly fine." "So is the tissue response." "She's sick because her body reacts habitually to the pain it's used to." "Tell me who donated the heart." "I wanna check the case history of the donor." "I told you it was impossible!" "Please reconsider it." "If the donor was fine as you say, why can't you tell me?" "I'm taking her out of here." "How did you..." "Sorry I ran out on you." "I wasn't myself." "Can I hold onto them?" "I won't touch the skull without your consent." "Jin will be fine." "She looks so much like you." "The surgery was a success." "And the chart says she's fine." "Nothing's wrong with her transplanted heart?" "So he held out on you about the donor?" "Right." "There's a confidentiality issue." "But when the patient isn't well, and you demand so strongly, it's natural for doctors to tell." "What do you suggest?" "Now she's my patient." "They'll have to turn over all the records." "Case number 278." "A female in her mid 20s." "Found in the sand..." "Hello there." "You cleaned?" "You shouldn't have." "5 minutes after, I regretted it." "How are things at NISI?" "I mean..." "Dealing with dead bodies, that's no picnic." "We live in a fucked-up..." "Excuse my language." "I got it!" "CHO Hye-ran." "It's Ki-bok's daughter." "The address?" "Didn't he skip town?" "He's a dirty dog." "He stayed cool for a while after his daughter died." "Then he left town." "It was a horrible death." "It must've shocked him a lot." "How did she die?" "It was horrible." "She was deaf." "And a bit lost up here." "She would run around town all day long." "One day she was hit by a train." "By a train?" "It was bad." "Real bad." "Her heart?" "Her body tore into pieces." "What do you think?" "Excuse me!" "Where are you going?" " I need to see Dr. YOON." " He's not in right now." "You can't go in there!" "Sir!" "Is this the surgery record you were looking for?" "The donor was CHO Hye-ran." "She got killed by a train." " She did?" " Yes." "The body was damaged beyond recognition." "This record is fake." "There must be a record on the real donor." "Dr. YOON's name keeps coming up." "Trafficking of drugs, the donor for your girl..." "Is your daughter, by any chance, Beta-allergic?" "Yes, and she had a heart disease." "Pull up the heart surgery records on Beta-allergic patients." "What's going on?" "All the victims were Beta-allergic." "He tampered with the records." "Therefore he's the suspect?" "I say that's lame." "Captain, Berg-Benzene was used to melt down the bodies." "It's a special chemical that can only be used at hospitals." "Take a look." "The amount used at his hospital is double of others." "And Dr. YOON authorized the purchase order." "Furthermore, all the victims were Beta-allergic." "And Dr. YOON specializes in heart transplants on those Beta-allergic patients." "That face reconstruction guy..." "He's been working on the 4th skull and suspects that it might belong to the donor who gave his daughter the heart." "Fine." "Get the arrest warned issued." " Go pick him up." " Okay." "I just sent the results." "Call me as soon as you confirm the ID." "Okay, I'll be waiting." "KIM Sun-mi, 27." "Reported missing in October 2000." "In 2000..." "Damn, he got his hopes up for nothing." " Hey, Detective SUH." " Yes." " What have you got?" " Take a look." "See the mark here?" "It's from the rope tied around the neck." "And this." "This thin deep scar here?" "It's the cause of death." "What are you saying?" "Somebody killed him beforehand?" "You don't die twice, do you?" "When I was little, I lived by the sea." "I loved playing with the sand." "I built everything with it." "So soft..." "And it was warm with the sun." "But, you know what?" "Underneath the sand..." "It's very cold." "You know the area well?" "Huh?" "I don't think the scenery is that breathtaking." "I know." "Good night." "Wait." "Thanks for inviting me today." "Thanks for coming with me." "Good night." "What the hell were you thinking?" "Trying to get yourself killed?" "Dr. YOON had these on him." "I stopped by at the hospital." "None of the doctors knew where the hearts came from." "They said they were delivered 2 hours prior to the surgeries." " Hello." " Hi." "It was sent out from here." " Whose PO Box is this?" " One moment please." "Not going well?" "It's been buried in the sand for a long time." "I think..." "It should be more like this." "This skull isn't like the others." "You have to find out who this was." "For your daughter." "This is it." "Okay." " How are you?" " Sun-young!" " What are you doing?" " Nothing." "So hard to see you!" "I've been busy." "A diving tour has been set." "You're coming, right?" "I don't know." "I'll have to see." "You missed it last time after the medical checkup." " That busy?" " No." "It's not only my work, but my mom isn't so well." "What's wrong?" "She's sick?" "I can never be a good daughter." "I only do things I want to." "What's the occasion?" "I just feel like drinking." "Quite good." " Sun-young." " Yeah?" "What if someone needs your help?" "What would you do?" "What do you mean?" "Nothing." "Never mind." "You don't have to answer." "Isn't she the victim?" "LEE Ji-eun." "Art Climbing Club." " So is this one." " Right." "KIM Sun-mi." "Sky Love Club." "Look at these photos." "KIM Han-su..." "Captain, we got him." "Name's KIM Han-su." "Dr. YOON gave him the list of young females from various leisure clubs." "And KIM carried out the killings." "What?" "That's right." "We're on our way to his cafe." "JUNG Sun-young?" "Who's that?" "I never hired such a researcher." "A year ago, she said she was going out." "Not a word from her since." "It's been a while." "I never expected to see you here." "What a surprise." "How's your daughter doing?" "Who are you?" "It was about this time last year." "In front of the surgery room, I saw you crying, holding your little girl." "We have met?" "I know you well." "Seeing your tears, I decided to kill Sun-young." "My son..." "He couldn't find a heart and struggled for 3 years." "Then I promised him." "That I'd never..." "That I'd never let children die like he did." "I'm just keeping that promise." "It wouldn't have been possible without Dr. YOON, though." "Even after he figured out how I got the hearts, he didn't turn me in." "On the other hand, he encouraged me." "He did his part well." "But he let it go to his head." "Since you've come this far, you might as well experience how Sun-young died." "She lived for over 20 years, doing things she wanted." "What about your daughter?" "She hasn't had a chance yet, has she?" "That heart beat over 900 million times in Sun-young's body." "I simply gave it to a new owner." "What I'm doing is..." "absolutely right!" "Nobody..." "Nobody can blame me." "Got that?" "Freeze!" "Hyun-min, are you okay?" " You okay?" " I'm fine." "Detective SUH!" "It's Berg-Benzene." "Daddy, let's play together." "Let me clean this up first." "Then we can play." "Can you wait?" " Okay." " You're such a doll." " A female in her..." " It's Daddy's voice." "Found in the sand..." "I'll get it, Daddy." "Don't run." "You're gonna get hurt." "Hyun-min." "If you're listening to this, it means you're well, right?" "You can consider it a dream and forget about it." "If you don't want to believe it, that's fine too." "But..." "Looking back..." "I've never been happier." "Be happy, Hyun-min." "Daddy, what are you doing?" "Jin." "I love you so much." "I do too!"
