Born Again (본 어게인)

(- What's your name? - Gong Ji Chul.)

(I hope no one hurts you in your next life.)

(that I will protect my bride, Jung Ha Eun, until the very end.)

(It seems like she watched a nightmare come alive.)

("Brain death and cardiac death are different.")

("The heart can keep beating even after brain death"?)

You're under arrest for murdering Yoon Jeong Hee and 10 women.

(Our bodies die and disappear, but our souls are born again.)

(Cha Hyung-bin, I wish I could be you just once.)

(Gong Ji Chul attacked his doctor and escaped from the institute.)

(Just wait a little bit. I'll give you my heart.)

Gong Ji Chul.

I told you that I'll kill you if you lay eyes on her one more time.

No!

Please save Ha Eun.

You can never be born again.

Chun Jong Bum?

Apparently, Jong Bum is a complete psychopath.

What is this deja-vu?

Seems like you're used to falling into men's arms.

(That skeleton got some sunshine on a warm spring day.)

Is it a wedding date?

It could be the date when he first saw his bride.

I promise I'll help you find your face.

The book that was loved by the mummy

that was tied with a red rope.

(Everyone meets their fate at the right time.)

(And once that time comes, your fate finally finds you,)

A person is hurt. Please come quickly.

He's bleeding.

A person is dying.

I...

I started seeing his blood...

from that moment.

I've felt this since we got the remains from Donggang River,

didn't we meet somewhere in the past?

At 09:33 a.m. last Monday.

I saw you being held a hostage.

- At Mapo-gu. - Me? At Mapo-gu?

I was negotiating with the attacker, not being held hostage.

You were almost going to die.

Almost...

Well,

so you passed by me even after seeing that, Prosecutor?

I was busy then.

I'm busy today too.

I see you're busy. But we should introduce each other.

I am Jung Sa Bin, Prosecutor Kim Su Hyuk.

I'll remember that, Ms. Jung Sa Bin.

That formalin.

That way. Wear a gown and sterilize your hands.

The autopsy room is inside here. I'll be waiting.

Okay.

- Who is that guy? - My heart skipped a beat.

- I'm asking you. Who is he? - What are you doing?

He's my student from school. He's here for a training session.

A student?

It's the mummy that has been skeletonized in a single day.

I wonder how he looked when he was alive.

He is handsome, in terms of phrenology.

He has a small face and is about 184 cm tall.

He has wide shoulders, just like a swimmer.

I don't know how his eyes, nose, and lips would look like though.

Do you want to hear the story behind him?

- Mr. John Doe... - Mr. John Doe?

I decided to call him that.

Mr. John Doe passed away on his way to the wedding hall...

carrying a ring for his bride.

Are you all right?

Yes.

Professor, isn't today's autopsy confidential?

I invited him over.

Since the mummy from Donggang is an unprecedented case, medically.

The case has not been closed for the remains.

Do you think it makes sense to give public access?

Trainees can observe the autopsy three times.

I'll call you next time. Sorry.

Is it okay if I see it from there?

- Please leave now. - I will.

We'll say this is the woman murdered by Byun Sung Hoon ten years ago.

Let's save the stab wounds in the abdomen and chest,

but let's say the shattered skulls are impossible to restore.

Sorry? What do you mean by that?

It's an unidentified body. We should make use of that.

We need to maximize Sung Hoon's crimes to put him in for life.

You will testify at his trial, won't you, Professor Yoo?

- Pardon? - That won't happen.

The purpose of our team is to do a 3D restoration and identify them.

The family of this body still thinks he is missing.

I thought we were on the same team, Professor Yoo?

- Well... - Are you trying to forge a record?

This is an insult to the body.

Do you want to go to jail for damaging the remains?

Go to jail?

Why do you think Mr. John Doe met me after his death?

It's to resolve an unfair incident.

He wants us to take him to his loved ones.

Mr. John Doe or not,

his family would've given up on him after 30 years.

Professor Yoo.

Get a confidential agreement from this woman.

I'm a medical examiner, not some woman.

Please keep Ms. Jung Sa Bin quiet.

I said it's a medical examiner.

Well, we'll see how it goes. Mr. Kim Su Hyuk.

Send the facial restoration to me only, and prepare for the testimony.

I'll be going now.

I guess you don't care what I'm telling you.

I'm fine with that.

Give me back the book and ring that belongs to Mr. John Doe.

It's his keepsake.

You should read that this time.

Goodness.

Even the publication year has faded.

What's this?

It looks like a seal.

Is it from a bookstore?

If everything in this world disappeared but you,

I'm going to keep on living.

Whatever our souls are made of,

your soul is the same as mine.

You are like me, more than I am.

- What are you doing? - That's what I wanted to ask you.

Geez.

You threw this book away to me.

Here, I'll give it back. You're so fickle.

Your mind changes every minute.

Give me that fountain pen too. It's mine.

Let me give you a piece of advice.

Just pass by when you witness a murder from now on.

You might be the one to get killed.

What a way to be concerned about me.

Why that...

Why is my heart beating over that formalin guy?

Gosh, that startled me.

I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Where are you now?

I'm in front of the autopsy room.

I think I left my fountain pen there.

Could you bring it over?

Why is everyone looking for a fountain pen today?

Fountain pen...

Where could it be?

Here it is.

We'll say this is the woman murdered by Byun Sung Hoon ten years ago.

Let's save the stab wounds in the abdomen and chest,

but let's say the shattered skulls are impossible to restore.

Sorry? What do you mean by that?

It's an unidentified body. We should make use of that.

We need to maximize Sung Hoon's crimes to put him in for life.

You will testify at his trial, won't you, Professor Yoo?

Hello.

I sent you the money. Thank you, always.

The ice hasn't melted at all. Good job.

Cutie, wait.

Do you want to have a drink with me?

I'll give you your three month's pay.

I get married in three weeks...

and I want my bachelorette party with you.

I'll choose the place.

And only two hours from where we at.

Okay. Wait here.

I'm sorry, I know you're busy.

You don't have to be so formal, ma'am.

I'll do that...

after you and Sang Ah are married.

I'm sure we still have more to hide from each other.

- I'll have a flat white. - Yes, ma'am.

Is the second edition already out?

But do people really need to know the secrets of a murderer?

I don't think they were born as a murderer.

A cobra isn't raised to be one. It's born to be one.

If you don't tame it before it raises its head...

it will spray poison on you.

Did you know...

that Gong Ji Chul is the person in the book?

- Gong Ji Chul? - Stop playing ignorant.

I know Chief prosecutor Chun Seok Tae despises Gong Ji Chul.

You're close to him, aren't you?

I guess he's your target for the day again.

I was always curious about your relationship with him.

So?

What do you think it is?

I'll wait until you tell me.

Did you know?

Chief prosecutor Chun has...

a troublesome son.

- So what? - Isn't it ironic?

Who would've thought that the son of Chief prosecutor Chun,

who hung so many criminals on the noose, was a young offender?

What a twist.

His wife got pregnant...

from a donated sperm since she thought he was infertile.

I guess she picked the wrong seed.

Ma'am.
