Born Again (본 어게인)

(You'll end up killing the one you love.)

(You'll end up killing the one you love.)

(The path of humans. The path of beasts 2.)

Sit.

Good boy.

Go inside.

Manson is a ferocious dog.

How did you make it behave so well?

Dogs have good intuition so they know whom to fight.

They feel the energy wave...

and use their sense of smell.

After that, a ferocious dog will...

- choose its owner. - You like this tea, don't you?

("Wuthering Heights" by Emily Brontë)

Revenge.

Upon his return, Heathcliff destroyed everything...

and led everyone to destruction.

Destroying is a way of possessing love.

Watching the woman he loves die because of himself...

what would've Heathcliff felt like?

I don't know.

Wouldn't he have cried?

What would it feel like to kill someone you love?

Well, I wouldn't know that.

Do you think it would be sad?

What do you think you'd feel if it were you?

If it were for me,

I wouldn't kill someone by being caught in someone's trap.

I could kill the one...

who trapped me.

Do you think the one who is trapped...

can realize that he is trapped?

He could set a trap too...

and make it more painful.

What if the game does not come to where the trap is?

He could lure it.

He could arouse the instinct of the game madly.

I wonder what choice...

the game would make.

Would it be driven like a beast...

to where the hunter wants it?

Or would it be able...

to deny its instinct like a human being?

I guess you're interested in things of this nature.

I like writing about those games.

Humans are the most human when they are brutal.

Help me!

Before the case took place,

a sign that says "off-limits" was definitely here.

But on the day Chun Jong Woo fell in the water, the sign wasn't there.

The distance from the villa for the party...

to the lake is 300 m away.

The lake is connected to the mountains.

What about the CCTV?

There are no cameras near the lake and the villa.

They are set up...

at a barley rice restaurant along the walkway,

at another restaurant that resembles a mountain cabin,

and at a convenience store.

But the incident took place here,

so why would you want to know about the CCTV and the walkway?

The culprit would've planned it out. They always do.

He would've thought about a week, three days, and the day before it.

Even the few hours before on the day of the incident.

He would've visited the site beforehand and plotted a scenario.

Check the CCTV in the walkway,

and hand everything over to the video analysis room...

No.

To my assistant.

There aren't many CCTV in a rural area like this.

I'll see to that, sir.

But even if it were attempted murder,

it's not like someone's reported it.

And it has to do with Chief Prosecutor Chun's family.

If he finds out you've cracked this open like this,

he won't leave you alone.

Detective Joo, are you standing behind Chief Prosecutor Chun?

Pardon?

Well, I know that you're standing...

behind Chief Prosecutor Chun.

As for me,

I'm not the type to stand behind someone.

The history between Chief Prosecutor Chun and I...

go way back, 30 years ago.

He's being sulky.

Are you sulking?

I saw him first when he was 13.

He had a great interest in Gong Ji Chul.

So I gave him a book as a gift.

Ma'am, could I briefly see you today?

I know you're busy. Tell me where to go.

- Where are you? - It's near the villa at Sangpyung.

Yes, Mom.

I'm coming now.

Mr. Lee, didn't you say you can't swim?

You said you were scared of water after falling into it as a child.

- Yes. - I see.

Then come and stand here.

In front of me.

I apologize, ma'am. I slipped.

Right. You can go.

It would've been fun for you.

- When you stared at him drown. - Was this it?

Is this why you called me?

No way.

Your voice is still so calm in situations like this.

You have a voice that will hit people's heart right in the center.

I'm sure this is one of your tastes.

Try to put a bigger smile.

I called you here to let you know that I will never abandon you.

You're not just the superior one percent.

You are so perfect even...

in the details that it's breathtaking.

Mom.

Normal moms usually say that they won't abandon their kids.

I'd be disappointed if you wanted a normal mom.

Go first, I'll follow soon.

You never came when I waited.

Didn't someone else always come for me...

instead of you?

That someone else is also me.

I sent them personally for you.

You should go first this time.

I'll follow.

I haven't been to a theme park in so long.

Sa Bin's jealous that I went alone.

A blue car.

Who are you looking for?

Why are you doing this in a dumb way?

- I'm busy. - Don't be like that.

You have a part-timer at the cashier.

Let me see a bit more.

Stop. Stop right there. Rewind a bit.

Stop right there.

R. M. Bike.

Prosecutor, I have it.

Jong Bum's bike was caught on camera.

Yes. The RM bike logo was...

on the body and the wheels. Yes.

The license plate is Seoul Seocho Da 6037.

The bike caught on camera just passed right by me.

- Is it Jong Bum for sure? - He has his helmet on...

so I'm not sure.

But it's the same bike I tailed last time.

The footage from the convenience store was taken...

at 2:30 p.m. on the day of the case.

There was a female student at the back of his bike.

- A female student? - Yes.

Her uniform is from Sanjong High School nearby.

I'll drop by and find out more.

I'd like to talk about Chun Jong Bum today.

By the way, is she okay?

The person you saved at the lake.

I was surprised. I didn't know you could be so heroic.

I thought you were a rational person.

But jumping in to save some other women in front of your fiance?

- If you're worried about Sang Ah... - It's just a curiosity.

You don't bat an eye...

when a man you framed killed himself in prison.

But how could you be so philanthropic at that moment?

- Framed? - I picked it up somewhere.

Someone's after you because of his brother's innocent death.

Who would that be?

I thought you knew.

I think it was Seo Tae Ha.

And his brother's name is Seo Sung Ha.

Seo Tae Ha.

And his brother Seo Sung Ha.

Seo Sung Ha wasn't framed.

That pedophile snooped around the daycare center...

every time he got out of jail.

Even if he was a pedophile,

no prosecutor should frame someone for something he hasn't done.

I'm sorry, but I came here...

to hear what Jong Bum is copying from Gong Ji Chul.

I hear they are both a part of your major.

I guess you're not going after...

the real killer of Hwa Young's case because of Jong Bum.

You think after Jong Bum read my book,

he copied the Yellow umbrella case.

But why do you disregard Gong Ji Chul from your suspect list?

Gong Ji Chul?

My book is fictional.

It has facts hidden in lies, like hide-and-seek.

Do you think the last page is fictional or real?

You keep dodging my questions.

I'll be going now.

I don't have time to play games with you.

Wait.

("You may have just met Gong Ji Chul.")

There's a guard...

who saw Ji Chul walk out alive from the morgue.

Sir, I checked the prison where Gong Ji Chul was executed.

May 31st, 1988. There were three executioners for Ji Chul.

Gu Won Jin, Hwang Jung Eui, and Jung Sung Hoon.

The first two are already deceased.

But Jeong Sung Hoon is still alive.

Where does he live?

Seolin-dong 36-2, Sangheun-gu, Yongin-si, Gyunggi-do.

Jung Sung Eun is at Dasarang Nursing Hospital.
