Put down the scalpel!

This autopsy will be performed by me.

The autopsy for this case has concluded.

Seo Yoon Hyung's cause of death is oronasal suffocation.

It is clearly a homicide.

What? Seo Yoon Hyung's murderer has turn herself in?

Method used was potassium cyanide.

That's impossible.

I don't trust the NFS anymore.

Hereby order, to confiscate all of National Forensic Service's

samples and data related to Seo Yoon Hyung's death case.

If the object used in the crime scene is consistent with the traces found in the esophagus,

then can I prove that my autopsy result was right?

I wasn't wrong!

I'll prove it!

The most important evidence was stolen.

It must have recorded something.

It's the videotape showing dressing room #4 where Seo Yoon Hyung died.

This is my first case!

Even if I have to risk my life, I will catch the criminal!

Somebody is definitely behind this.

We need to look into this further.

I can prove that Seo Yoon Hyung did not have pulmonary tuberculosis.

Let's re-open Seo Yoon Hyung's lungs.

Nonsense.

This is against the work of the police and prosecutors.

All the results of this examination will be my responsibility.

Permission granted.

Didn't I tell you before.

The game has just begun.

= Episode 3 =-

I don't know what you have to say,

but can it be discussed later?

You must hear it now.

Everyone is waiting.

It's about Seo Yoon Hyung's case.

Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon's autopsy was not wrong.

Seo Yoon Hyung did not have any lung diseases.

Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon's autopsy was accurate.

Seo Yoon Hyung didn't die because of potassium cyanide.

He died because of oronasal suffocation.

What are you trying to say?

You want to know the truth?

Seo Yoon Hyung wasn't killed by Lee Soo Jung, but by someone else.

In fact, it can be said that several talents

were betrayed by Seo Yoon Hyung, like his ex-girlfriend Lee Soo Jung.

A Voice member, Jeong Seok Hun. Because of Seo Yoon Hyung, he is always second in everything.

Because of the conflict with the new contract, Seo Yoon Hyung had some disagreement with the company's representative.

Ah and one more!

The one who received the break up notice from Seo Yoon Hyung...

the hidden girlfriend, Kang Seo Yeon.

What are you talking about?

Hidden girlfriend?

It seems like the two had been together,

Seo Yoon Hyung and Kang Seo Yeon.

But then Seo Yoon Hyung decided to break up.

Breaking up with a woman with a strong self-esteem, he should be extra careful,

since it can...

lead to his own death.

The master-mind behind this crime is Kang Seo Yeon.

A splendid death on a splendid stage.

After making this plan, Kang Seo Yeon

approached Lee Soo Jung and Jeong Seok Hun.

Not to mention manager Joo Seon Woo.

Lee Soo Jung was supposed to add potassium cyanide into Seo Yoon Hyung's favorite drink,

but at the last minute, Lee Soo Jung felt bad about it,

and didn't mix the lethal dose into his drink.

Help me, call 119...

How did you?

To tamper with the autopsy result, you need to know the truth.

If I had done the autopsy from the start, nobody would have gotten hurt.

Since I was going to report Seo Yoon Hyung's death as...

simply internal factors due to overwork.

Why are you telling me this now?

Big fortune and bribes behind autopsies...

Doesn't this sound familiar?

Something similar happened 20 years ago.

Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon always claims that:

"The truth will certainly come out."

If the truth of Seo Yoon Hyungs death is revealed,

I believe the same goes for the case 20 years ago.

Director, you're the living witness of our country's forensic community.

The autopsy must be objective and impartial and the results should not be influenced by personal opinion and power.

That principle is established as the backbone and foundation of the forensic community.

What will happen if the people would know that the Director

has such secret?

What will you do?

The choice is yours.

You can either stay out peacefully...

or ruin both of us.

Start laparotomy.

Was it Sunbae-nim?

I bought an chrysanthemum wine... Do you want some?

Sunbae-nim.

I bought it because it's good for coughs.

My cough's getting worse.

Why did you do it?

This was your last case.

For 30 years,

I've been looking for fingerprints and blood traces...

using Luminol and SPR.

-=Luminol: Used to detect traces of blood. Traces of blood will emit a blue glow=- using Luminol and SPR.

=Luminol: Used to detect traces of blood. Traces of blood will emit a blue glow=-

My life has shortened. -=Luminol: Used to detect traces of blood. Traces of blood will emit a blue glow=-

-=SPR (Small Particle Reagent): A reagent used to check for fine fingerprints=- My life has shortened.

I have liver failure, too.

It's not like you didn't know about this when you joined the profession.

Aren't you familiar enough with these chemicals?

You still worked with a sense of duty.

Sense of duty?

Working in this profession, do you know what I've come to realize?

In this world,

no matter how hard people like us try,

we can't change anything.

As a forensic investigator,

even though we've protected the crime scene, gathered the evidence, arrest the criminal, throwing the criminal into jail,

there will never be any change to this world.

I thought my work would be acknowledged one day.

I worked for 30 years but the only...

thing I've been given is some protective equipment.

There's still no support and no recognition.

In this sort of situation,

a sense of duty will also disappear.

Soon you'll realize it too.

How much did you receive?

An innocent person died,

and an innocent person was accused of murder.

By hiding the truth as condition,

how much did you receive?

Reality is different from CSI.

The autopsy has ended.

Has it been confirmed?

Did Seo Yoon Hyung have lung disease?

Living people lie...

while the dead speak the truth.

This is the reality.

Professor Lee Myung Han was correct,

in the upper right side of the lung,

there was damage caused by pulmonary tuberculosis.

For this particular case, NFS

has made a deadly mistake.

We've let down the trust given to us by the citizens.

I am responsible for all consequences.

I will resign from my position as Director.

I'll take full responsibility for this case,

so regarding Dr. Yoon Ji Hoon's punishment,

I hope for clemency.

Director!

Director!

Why are you doing this?

I saw it with my own eyes.

Seo Yoon Hyung's lung is not damaged.

How can I make you believe?

I'm not wrong!

This is my last autopsy.

I'm not going to doubt you again.

But you shouldn't do that.

Director, what on earth are you talking about?!

Coroners are human too.

We can't always be right.

There are times when we're wrong.

Times when we take the path we shouldn't.

But there is no time for us to regret.

All these time,

we have to use it to listen to the dead person's last words.

That is what we should do.

I wasn't wrong!!!

Do you really think it is because of CSI

that I joined this profession?

No, I did this work...

because of you.

It was you who made me decide on this profession.

I get what you're saying,

but there is no evidence.

Does that make any sense?

What do you mean there's no evidence?

My brother was dying in the hospital!

But you can't find a suspect?

There's no evidence.

At least a fingerprint will be left behind, right?

On TV, isn't it that easy to catch the suspect?

Come and see the crime scene for yourself. It's not that easy.

We were as frustrated as you are.

Then, I'll go find it.

My brother has become like that,

there should be at least a strand of hair, right?

I'll go find it, is that ok?

The scene was evacuated yesterday.

What? The suspect isn't found yet and it's been evacuated?

The people will have to use the sidewalk, right?

I'm sorry.

Detective!

My brother is dying.

Someone has to tell me who is responsible!

Now that crimes evolve more and more,

crime scene preservation as the first step of a forensic investigation,

no matter how we stress it, it's not too much.

And also...

This concludes today's class.

I have a question.
