A Superior Day (Uwolhan Halu / 우월한 하루)

(All characters, locations, groups, incidents are fictional.)

I'm scared.

I think...

he'll really kill me.

I won't let anyone kill you first.

Come on. Darn it.

It's not pretty anymore.

This won't do.

Darn it!

Hello?

Someone is trying to kill a woman.

Please hurry. Please!

Is there someone else other than me?

This is for eyeing what's mine.

Does it mean you are willing to do anything...

to save your daughter?

Very well.

Find him.

And then...

kill him.

I'll do it.

I'll kill him.

If you spare my daughter,

I'll do anything.

I'll do anything you tell me to.

- Go back home. - What?

And don't forget.

Your actions from now on...

will have consequences.

Firefighter Lee Ho Chul.

I'll repay you for this.

I promise.

Don't worry.

I'll call you if I find Soo Ah.

Be careful.

It's my fault.

I'm sorry.

I'm truly sorry.

Hey, Ho Chul.

Jung Min.

Yes?

I need you to do something for me.

What is it? Is something wrong?

I'll explain everything later.

Don't ask me anything. Just help me.

Please do this for me.

I'll be back soon.

I'll find Soo Ah...

and catch that man.

Just give me some time.

The receiver cannot be reached.

Why aren't you answering your phone?

Is everything okay?

I'm on my way home now.

I'll step out for a bit.

Okay. See you later.

I'm on my way home now.

What about the target?

I put her where you told me to.

Open the glove compartment.

Now, our deal is over.

Forget everything you did today.

But...

you won't kill her, right?

The girl didn't do anything wrong.

If you remember the girl, I might have to.

Gosh. Most of them aren't home.

You startled me.

You were home.

Excuse us. We're the police.

I see. You came here because of the murder downstairs, right?

Come on in.

Thank you.

Hey, honey.

Why didn't you answer your phone?

I was in the shower.

Where's Soo Ah?

Oh, the art teacher next door is holding a makeup class,

so she went there.

She'll be there for a while.

Really?

I couldn't reach you, so I got worried.

Why were you worried?

(Are you on the phone? You're not answering. Meet me in my office.)

- Is everything okay? - Of course.

What could be wrong?

Okay. I'll call you back.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

You have a lot of diffusers in your home.

I'm very sensitive to smells.

Are you interrogating all the homes?

Yes. It's exhausting.

Are you hoping to find a witness?

It seems like such an inefficient method.

What?

It's nothing. You just look so tired.

There are over 800 units here.

This is the most important step during the first investigation.

Please cooperate.

Of course. I'll cooperate fully.

You can ask me anything.

Just tell us everything you know.

How long have you lived in Parisville?

I moved here in the spring, so it's been about six...

No, seven months.

So you must not know much about the victim.

I know her.

You know the victim?

Yes. Why?

Should I have said I didn't know her?

No. We've been interrogating people since this morning,

and you're the first person to say you knew her.

- That's right. - I see.

I received help from her.

It was when I just moved.

What is this?

I told you I didn't need a birthday gift.

Why did you send me this?

Thank you.

I'll call you later.

Do you want some help?

No, it's okay.

What do you mean?

Thank you so much.

Did you ever watch "The Silence of the Lambs"?

The movie?

I did. Why do you ask?

There's a scene in the movie.

A woman helps a man who has a cast on his arm.

But the man is a serial killer.

Oh, right. I remember that scene.

He pretends he's hurt and lures the woman,

and he hits her with the arm that's in the cast...

and knocks her out.

Did I scare you?

Saying thank you didn't seem sufficient.

I thought I had to say something like this to leave an impression.

Thank you so much.

What? You surprised me.

I was in a difficult situation then,

but she suddenly came and helped me out.

I was really grateful.

Did you ever see her again?

Again?

You're here!

I thought I missed you again. I came to deliver a suit.

For me?

They said it was urgent, and this is my third time here.

I see. Thank you.

Your welcome.

Goodbye.

The number you have called is not in service.

Please check the number and try again.

I took care of what you asked for.

What would you do without me?

Who cares if you're on furlough?

Your hands are still tied, so you might as well be locked up.

So is everything going as planned?

Isn't the smell of money intoxicating?

I'm not going to take on any more work until this is done,

so don't use my name to make money.

What do you mean?

What is this?

Does he have someone watching me?

No way.

He's stuck in the penthouse and can't do anything without me.

Hello?

That surprised me.

Let's get out of here.

(Hypnotherapy Observation Journal, Patient: Lee Ho Chul)

We met, about twice.

You met?

I apologize.

Hello.

Oh, hello.

You're a member here?

I didn't get to thank you properly last time.

It's nice to see you again.

It feels like fate.

Whatever.

The cast's gone.

By the way,

it worked.

"The Silence of the Lambs".

It stuck in my memory.

Since we met again,

will you let me return the favor?

What?

How about dinner?

Okay, then. Sure.

We crossed paths at the gym.

Then we ate out together.

What did you talk about during the meal?

I'm not sure.

Let me live.

Please let me live.

Please...

Did we just talk about mundane stuff?

How could I remember what we said?

I was too busy staring at her face.
