"A B.O.M. Film Production" "YEOM Jung-ah" "JI Jin-hee" "CHO Seung-woo" "SUNG Ji-ru" "Directed By LEE Jong-hyuk" "FEBRUARY 10th" "What a day to be at a fucking landfill!" "Should have worn boots." "The forensic team?" "I called them." "They'll be here soon." "What the fuck?" "It's pouring." " What is it?" " Took your time." "Introduce yourself." "I'm Kang Tae-hyun!" "We're on our way, you son of a bitch!" "Let's get moving." "Let's do a good job together." "We've got to do an autopsy." "But it doesn't look like a mere rape and murder." "It's nice and cool." "You're not scared?" "I am." "It's my first time." "After he killed her, he must have dumped her here." "He sure picked a dirty spot." "No, he picked the right place." "Hey, Kang!" "What the hell are you doing?" "Screwing around on your first day?" "Bullshit!" "He's not the only one working." "We've got to at least look, asshole." "Damn it." "She cut the umbilical cord with her teeth." "No need to even use a microscope." "She gave birth by herself?" "Perhaps." "Shit, use a fucking condom or at least have the baby." "Cause of death?" "Probably loss of blood, but we won't know until we've done more tests." "The body rotted too quickly." "It's impossible to determine a date of death." "FEBRUARY 14th" "We are now at the last stop." "Did she get drunk and fall asleep?" "Hey!" "Wake up!" "Clear the way!" " Where is it?" " Here." "Hey!" "You're late again?" "Shit!" "I'm sorry." "I didn't get any sleep just to come and look at this?" "Have you found something?" "Find something?" "There are thousands of people who take buses." "You!" "Where were you when this occurred?" "Oh, my." "Oh, fuck!" "The victim was strangled with a string from behind, which means the victim didn't know the killer." "If they knew each other, she would have recognized the person before he sat down behind her." "Then the murder did not happen because of a grudge." "Right." "The murder was not planned in advance." "The motive of the killer isn't known yet." "What about the girl found in the landfill?" "A close examination proved the embryo was extracted by force." "And the umbilical cord's blood print and the victim's don't match." "These are the same as Shin Hyun's first two crimes." "Shin Hyun gave himself up after committing 6 murders 10 months ago." "First, a pregnant high school student." "Next, a pregnant unwed woman near giving birth." "The unwanted pregnancy is what they have in common with Shin Hyun?" "Yes, the next victim was a lesbian." "And after the murder he cut off her ear." "Right now Shin Hyun is in prison, and the same murders are occurring." "Then we'll have to meet Shin Hyun." "It's time now." "CHU KYUNG-SOOK" "Shin Hyun, age 22." "Killed six women in a row." "The sixth victim was put into a bag and taken to the police station where he confessed." "Bastard!" "He's a celebrity." "Sit!" "You have a right to." "The introductions are late." "I'm Detective Kang." "It was forgotten all this time." "How does it feel receiving attention again?" "Can you hear the voice?" "I'll ask you simply, who the fuck is it?" "From the heart or the soul to the body a sound echoing from the body to the soul." "Have you experienced an echoing abyss?" "Just answer the questions!" "Before I kill you." "You haven't heard what the pictures mean yet." "I still hear restless sounds of spirits." "Fury against foolish people who infringed upon lives like a person's possession." "Beautiful, isn't it?" "The magnificence in the spot of redemption at the borderline in between life and death." "Open your ears to what they say and feel the flow." "And if you don't feel the message echoing, it will be buried in abyss." "Have you ever thought about what this person was thinking" "as the blood spread?" "Detective Kang, when you face the abyss don't forget that you are facing yourself." "And when you fight a monster like me be careful not to turn into a monster too." "What?" "Crazy bastard." "That scar..." "I hope this case continues." "I hope I see you often." "You bastard!" "Shit!" "And, please... give my regards to Detective Kim." "She will be sad because of Detective Han." "It's a shame what happened to Han." "Honestly, those in charge of the murders, there was a reason they got mental disorders." "What about Shin Hyun?" "Hyun had nightmares where his legs and arms were cut off, flowing in a bathtub of blood." "Killing women because of God's calling, his uneasiness and nightmares are gone." "He's not in a place to kill women, so his uneasiness and nightmares continue." "Did you say you were Detective Kang?" "Just speak with ease." "Isn't it Hyun who hired someone else to start the murders again?" "Are there any files on Shin Hyun?" "A doctor doesn't reveal information on patients." "Dr. Chu, information is needed to protect future victims." "How about cooperating with us?" "My patient is more important to me than a victim I don't know." "That bastard hired someone." "No need to investigate." "We need to subpoena him." "That's the fastest way." "The copycat takes precedence." "What?" "Didn't you hear what was just said?" "Whether someone copied him or he hired someone there's someone committing the murders." "We have to catch him first." "Why are you ignoring the true murderer and going back?" "It's a case where waiting is necessary." "This isn't it." "Shit!" "Don't you know that you and I are the same rank?" "Yup." "At the last tunnel he committed the murder and then got off." "Yes." "The radius is quite wide, over 3,000 yards." "There's got to be something here." "There's something here!" "That's correct." "These two women had medical examinations at our hospital." "They both seemed like unwed mothers." "But it's better for both not to ask questions." "So I didn't." "Heo Young-taek." "He quit a month ago." "Why did he quit?" "He hoarded the hospital's equipment... things like surgical knives." "He has a criminal record." "A criminal record?" "FEBRUARY 28th." "Why aren't you coming in?" "I'm going in, since you're taking full responsibility." "Mi-yeon's not just anyone." "At that age she's at a higher rank than me." "As an inspector she was awesome." "But when you get to know her you can't help feeling sorry for her." "She came to us after Han committed suicide." "Did they know each other?" "They were engaged." "Han was in shock because of Shin Hyun!" "I should have helped him when he was lost." "He caught Shin with his own hands but let him go." "Shin did kill six, then turned himself in." "Hey!" "Young-taek!" "Son of a bitch!" "Son of a bitch!" "Don't worry." "He's a nasty fella." "He was shot twice in the chest and is still breathing." "Can't commit such a murder without being cold." "What is it?" "He and Shin Hyun were in the same prison." "Heo Young-taek gives his regards." "He was a really good kid." "If he hadn't met someone, he would be." "I see you're still locking yourself up." "Even after seeing this how can you say such a thing?" "The earring is pretty but it smells of blood." "That girl a year ago also had an earring on." "But it hasn't been found yet." "Attachment leads us quickly to the core of abyss but can never go near the essence." "Have you ever thought about the blood that runs through you?" "What?" "Dirty blood you want to wash off but can't." "Blood that transfers to me from a dirty body and an immoral soul." "We can't go near the blue heavens." "Can never go to where innocent souls live." "We?" "I'm just smelling the blood." "The smell you brought before opening the door" "is of very dirty blood." "Heo's not conscious." "But the fingerprints of the bus murder and the bloody mark of the high school girl's umbilical cord are a perfect match." "From then on, evidence for the three murder cases have been prepared." "But... the fact that he copied Shin Hyun's patterns the fact that they were in the same prison leaves room for question." "And... the motive for murder is not yet clear." "Was this victim a lesbian?" "Yes." "Even though he was being chased he copied Shin Hyun's pattern and reenacted it." "Young-teak and Shin Hyun were in the same prison." "And he continued Shin Hyun's patterns." "Thinking about these two facts, you can't rule out the possibility of Shin Hyun hiring him." "Detective Kim, nothing came out of the accounts we investigated?" "Did you know that because they strictly regulate condemned criminals" "Shin Hyun couldn't meet Young-taek?" "No, that bastard knew Young-taek." "That's what he said with his own mouth." "Did Shin Hyun know Heo Young-taek?" "So what has that changed?" "The incident arose with Shin Hyun hiring someone." "So what kind of question is that?" "It's still not too late." "We have to get a subpoena and pursue the bastard!" "Shin Hyun got the death penalty at the first trial but didn't appeal." "He's going to die soon." "What's the point in catching him again?" "To give him the death penalty again?" "If Shin Hyun knows Young-taek then it's a different story." "Shin Hyun committed murders, which means there's three murders left." "A third Heo Young-taek can come out." "In his case, the evidence and witnesses are secure." "Unless you turn it upside down, there's nothing we can do." "Sergeant Lee, conclude this as a copycat crime of a mentally unstable man." "Let's hand it over to the prosecution." "What's next?" "Yes, it's Bae Kil-soo." "He agreed to stand witness against the gang leader, Yongman." "But this bastard disappeared." "I quit." "Are you out of your mind?" "I'd rather quit than do nothing." "Every time something happens..." "You, come out here!" "Wait." "Let go!" "Let go!" "What's wrong with you since yesterday?" "Come out here!" "You know why as well!" "Park, does a detective grab a criminal by the head?" "No, no." "Shit." "If you're that smart, why be a detective and not a judge or lawyer?" "Then why are stupid people so complicated?" "Kang!" "Have a drink and forget everything!" "Cheers." "Cheers." "Fuckin' smart serial killers." "What the fuck!" "Fuckin' dumb detectives." "If you don't have the brains, you gotta have the balls to catch them." "Here she comes." "Shit." "That fucking smart woman's here." "Detective Kim's also here." "So we'll have another rally." "Hostess!" "Give us another bottle." "It's not a rally but a farewell party." "Hey, Kang!" "Stop it." "I'll rip out your fuckin' mouth." "Let's just forget about this case for a while." "And you're sure you're not running away?" "I'm not running away, but going round keeping the case in my mind and looking at it from far away." "Although it would be better if we were wrong." "He's not the only murderer in Korea." "There are thousands of killers out there waiting for us." "Do you know something?" "You're meaner than I thought!" "Yeah." "I'm mean." "But we won't be able to solve the case by being emotional like you." "You're right." "We have to control our feelings or we'll go crazy to death, like somebody!" "Hey!" "What's wrong with you guys?" "Fuckin' son of a bitch!" "Leave it!" "I'll take care of it." "A woman who has ruined her virginity doesn't deserve getting married." "That's why he cut off the ring finger of the 4th victim." "I see you haven't found the link between Shin Hyun and this murder." "Why do you think he copied the murders of Shin Hyun?" "If you're curious about something go look for Young-taek in the hospital." "Yes." "This is Kang." "Where?" "Okay." "Another case?" "Go." "If this case ends, then we'll have no reason to meet again?" "Although you're Shin Hyun's doctor records show too frequent visitation." "If this case is reopened you'd be a possible suspect." "Shit, Kang, the bastard, why is he so late?" "If we wait any longer, Bae Kil-soo will notice." "How is it?" "Standby at G3 zone!" "Keep watching the situation carefully." "Yes, ma'am." "Bastard." "Shit." "What the fuck?" "Fucking scared the crap out of me!" "Sixth floor!" "Follow me!" "Too complicated." "This seems like the right floor." "The trail stops here." "Where the hell did it go?" "Did you call the forensic team?" "Keep looking until they come." "What, did he just fly away?" "Shit." "The victim had no ties with Heo Young-taek." "The killer used Shin Hyun's methods." "Shin Hyun's victim had two abortions before marriage." "He thought she didn't deserve to wear a wedding ring." "So he cut off her left ring finger." "So it's the same crime again." "What's the footprint at the crime scene?" "Men's size 71/2." "The owner probably weighs about 154 pounds." "How about Shin Hyun's next murder?" "He wanted to show life's nobility" "So he murdered an abortion doctor and excavated her uterus." "Cruelly killing for the sake of life's nobility." "Is Shin Hyun instigating someone else?" "Shin Hyun's last victim was a woman in her 50's." "Her identity is still unknown." "Shin Hyun refuses to talk about this victim." " She's very drunk." " Beat me some more!" "Who are you, asshole?" "What the hell are you doing?" "Hey, are you this bitch's boyfriend?" "Take her away." "Fucking asshole!" "Who are you calling a bitch?" "I don't know anything." "I'm so busy escaping from Yongman's men how can I murder a person?" "Hey, you bastard, fucking stupid asshole!" "Who said you killed her?" "I told you to tell me if you ever saw or heard anyone strange when the murder occurred." "Strange?" "Is that a hotel or something?" "Nothing." "Think hard!" "How can I even think of it?" "Hiding myself keeps me busy enough." "Shit, are you joking with me?" "I told you I had no idea!" "And you see my head as a Boshin bell?" "Come on, then, hit me 30 more times!" " Count from now on." " Four, five, seven..." "Leave it there and pass him over to prosecution." "Here's the second autopsy report." "But..." "But what?" "This victim's different from the others." "She's a virgin." "Shin Hyun's first trial involved five sessions." "Of the people who attended all five," "Shin Hyun's followers should be included." "If we take out reporters and investigators..." "HAN JUNG-WOO" "Choi Young-jin?" "This is the asshole!" "Choi Young-jin." "Age 31." "Abstract painter and former college lecturer." "He was convicted of sexually harassing his female students." "He's also Shin Hyun's college upperclassman." "According to Detective Kang, he appeared again at the scene of the 4th crime." "Menstruation usually occurs every 28 days." "Given the body's decomposed state the first case seems to have occurred about 28 days prior to the 3rd techno-bar incident." "Shin Hyun's first, third, and fifth murders also took place every 28 days." "As you said, the odd-numbered cases occurred every 28 days." "But the even-numbered cases were very irregular." "The three days in the middle of the cycle." "Most women ovulate" "for 2 to 3 days two weeks after menstruation." "The even-numbered cases happened during the ovulation period." "An unmarried mother, an abortion... all the cases involve pregnancy." "That explains the ten-month period." "It's the time that takes for a baby to be born into the world." "Shin Hyun was waiting for 10 months exactly, and resumed." "What you did to Heo Young-taek... did you do that to anyone else?" "Who are you talking about?" "Don't play dumb." "It's foolish to think that you know something that you don't." "Shut the fuck up, you prick!" "You must be happy to see your plan going so smoothly." "It's exactly the same." "That expression of yours... that's the look of joy that children get when they thoughtlessly twist a chick's neck." "You should know that all looks hide hidden meanings." "People who try hard to hide themselves, people who treat life as a possession and go about trying to hide their crime..." "Are you referring to yourself?" "Obviously, you're not understanding dimensions." "Dimension?" "You're nothing more than a murderer waiting for death." "You see things so superficially." "Listen to the cry of the abyss." "If you fail to take heed, you won't be able to see beyond the six corpses." "Are you trying to say that what you did is different from what children do?" "Kids do things by themselves." "They're not cowards like you who use other people." "Coward?" "Death is the lone salvation for those who abandon life and life that is abandoned." "You too will soon understand." "Let's stop." "I don't have time to listen to any more of your crap." "You're stronger than I thought." "You should hate me because of what I did to Detective Han." "Hiding behind coldness and harsh words won't heal your wounds." "Is the man who left his love behind still holding onto you?" "Do you believe you can be free?" "Han Jung-woo..." "What drove him to death?" "What knot could he not undo?" "What pain he must have felt." "Why couldn't I help him?" "Even you could have done nothing for him." "Because he was just a mere mortal, weak and helpless." "You probably won't make the same mistake he did." "You shit!" "Time's up." "I've gotta go." "Someday maybe we'll be able to see the blue sky together." "It's been fun." "Long ago," "I came here with my mom, who I called sister." "Why do you think I called her that?" "That's how we could make a living," "though I didn't understand at the time." "The world's fucked up, isn't it?" "Every night, I had to see my mother with another man." "I grew up among women sitting under a red light." "I called them "sis,"" "so that I could tell them apart from my mother." "I would walk with my mom along this beach." "Sometimes she would carry me on her back." "Where is she now?" "Dead." "To me, she's real only on this seashore." "MARCH 28th" "Hello." "Yes." "Okay, I see." "Have you forgotten today is the day?" "Choi Young-jin was diagnosed as mentally deranged and received treatment from Dr. Chu during his probation." "Chu Kyung-sook!" "I knew it." "That bitch." "Let's question her right now and find out where Choi Young-jin is." "Not today." "Let's just keep an eye on her." "She won't submit to our investigation." "Just watch her again?" "Knowing someone's going to be murdered today?" " What the..." " Get out!" "Open the fucking door!" "This is the police!" "As they grow older, serial killers become angry over their past abuse and see a target to release their hate." "They normally target women to show off their strength." "Let's end here today." "See you next week" "Calm down!" "It's me, Kim!" "It's me, Kim." "It's comfortable, and warm." "Was it comfortable until you came into the world?" "Why?" "What do you see?" "It's all right." "Say it!" "No, no, don't do that!" "It hurts!" "If you say it, the pain will stop." "Say it." "What do you see?" "Something shiny..." "like metal... is pressing against my head." "No!" "Stop!" "Mommy!" "Please!" "It hurts!" "Mother!" "If you kill me, you shall die too!" "Kill who?" "You're going to kill me!" "If you kill me, you'll die too!" "You're going to kill me!" "I'm sorry, Mommy!" "I'm sorry!" "I'm sorry!" "The possibility of an embryo surviving an abortion is under 3%." "Shin Hyun was born in these circumstances." "And his memory of the attack he felt in the womb came to control his subconscious." "His aggressive activity caused by his hatred of women originates from the horror he felt while still unborn." "The order came suddenly." "With what happened to Dr. Chu and the uproar over the serial murders they thought it was necessary to act before things got worse." "How was the end?" "He was calm." "His last words were that he killed his mother." "His mother?" "Are you trying to quit or did you just start up again?" "There once was someone I loved." "He also tried to catch Shin Hyun." "What would he do in this situation?" "Chu Kyung-sook's name appears on the plane passenger list but Choi Young-jin's doesn't." "Let me see." "The owner of the basement office." "Who the hell is this?" "Sir, his name is Kim Young-mo." "This bastard looks suspicious." "The owner of the basement room," "Kim Young-mo, turned out to be homeless!" "Choi Young-jin has been living under the name of Kim all this time." "And he bought plane tickets using that name every time Chu Kyung-sook was flying to Kangneung." "It turns out that Choi owns a villa in Kangneung." "The important thing is that their visits to Kangneung coincide with the murder dates!" "Over here!" "Knock it down!" "APRIL 14th" ""Another person moving through me." "At first, I was able to control him, but no longer." "The repeated murders..." "I'm afraid of this other person." "If I can't control him, what choice do I have?"" "Choi Young-jin was a patient of Dr. Chu and suffered from a split personality." "Believing he was Shin Hyun, he was a satanist who worshipped Shin Hyun and developed the Shin Hyun inside." "But even though he considered his alter ego his salvation he seemed very afraid of the serial murders." "So he chose suicide." "But why change the object of his murders?" "I believe he was confused." "It was a mistake caused by the battle with his other self." "What about Shin Hyun's manipulation?" "That point will be made clear." "After a psychiatric test of Heo Young-taek the investigative team has concluded that cases, including the techno-bar incident, were Heo's doing, while the remaining two were Choi's work." "Okay, arrange for a press conference." "FROM SHIN HYUN" "Hey, Kang!" "Are you afraid?" "Bastard." "Driving me crazy till the very last day." "The case is closed." "Don't worry and open it!" "Is it really over?" "I guess Detective Han can finally rest." "Forget about it." "With Shin Hyun and Choi Young-jin gone, there shouldn't be any more trouble." "Detective Park!" "This footprint was a size 71/2, right?" "It's me." "So?" "What the hell's the matter?" "Talk to me." "Damn, this is frustrating." "Come on, tell me what's going on." "What is it?" "What was Heo Young-taek's phone number?" "Why do you ask?" "What is post-hypnosis?" "It's a state where a person falls back into hypnosis when given a signal on a specific time." "Are you saying that the person can become hypnotized even after the hypnotist has died?" "If we're thinking correctly, that night, underground workshop, there should have been 3 sets of footprints... mine, Detective Kang's and Choi's." "But there were only two sets!" "The female footprints were mine." "So the male footprints belonged to either Kang or Choi." "Choi Young-jin's foot is a size 10." "Then there should be someone else." "The footprints of that night were a size 71/2... the same as Detective Kang's." "Mi-yeon, you must have made a mistake." "Check out Choi Young-jin's phone records." "Before the incident, he made calls to Detective Kang and Heo Young-taek." "And the phone melody I heard that night belonged to Kang." "What, his phone melody was a hypnosis signal?" "How can that be when you get several calls each day?" "He sent a certain sound through the mobile phone." "That sound was a hypnosis signal." "Shit, it still can't be Kang!" "Tell me it's not true!" "Don't do this!" "Put down the gun!" "Calm down!" "Relax." "Everything's going to be fine." "I heard there's a way to break the hypnosis." "Put down the gun." "Look at my eyes!" "Hey, Kang!" "It's not your fault!" "You had no choice." "Let's think of it like that." "I shouldn't have met that guy."
