Life on Mars (Life on Mars Korea / Raipeu On Maseu / 라이프 온 마스)

Do you remember the young lady hiding in the bathroom...

when we were after the Lottery Gang at the room salon?

Remember there was a woman hiding with Han Choong Ho?

This is the girl that was with that jerk back then?

Yes.

She's been staying with Han Choong Ho in this room...

for about a week now.

What are you talking about?

What do you mean, she was with Mr. Han Choong Ho?

What else?

They were hooking up, obviously.

There's something in her mouth.

It looks like a pair of panties.

Come here, Tae Joo.

My son.

Let's fly.

Here we go.

Tae Joo!

It can't be.

Am I dreaming?

Or have I gone crazy?

And if it's neither of those two, why am I here?

Hey, this is the house that Han Choong Ho lives in?

Yes.

That guy who supposedly makes a living overseas...

was this guy?

How infuriating.

You two. Go to the back and prevent him from escaping.

Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Hey, Han Choong Ho!

Han Choong Ho!

Did he run away already?

Hey! Han Choong Ho!

He's still just a suspect.

Don't treat him like a culprit.

I'm not here to escort some nobleman.

Get out of my way.

Hello.

Hello.

Hey there.

Are you doing a secret investigation?

Yes, we are.

Where did Han Choong Ho go?

My husband hasn't come home yet.

May I ask what this is about...

You don't need to know.

Anyway, when did he leave?

He said he had some business to take care of last night, and left.

What kind of business?

All he told me was that he had to meet someone.

By the way,

are you going somewhere?

We're going on a trip.

We're supposed to go on a train trip with Dad.

A trip?

That sounds nice. Where are you headed?

To Bugok Hawaii.

Bugok Hawaii?

That sounds like so much fun.

Looks like...

you're planning to be away for a while.

That doesn't look like you're packing for just a few days.

It's our first time going on a family vacation,

so my husband said we should stay there for a while.

Really?

Gosh!

I think that jerk was digging through my makeup bag again!

Sister-in-Law, Brother...

What brings you here, Detective?

Mal Sook.

Please watch Tae Joo for a bit.

Hey, take everything out and turn it over!

We're not here to clean their house!

We have to find evidence.

Turn everything over!

Hey, go through everything. And I mean everything.

Let me know as soon as you get the results.

Yes, sir. - All right.

Everyone in the neighborhood said that...

the last time they saw him was last night.

I think he already fled.

Assign a guy here to keep watch.

Yes, sir. - What about you?

Firstly, those around him had a good opinion of him.

They said that he was kind,

and greeted them whenever he saw them.

But...

the lady who owns the supermarket down there...

said he came by to use the payphone at 10pm every day.

And he'd talk for over 10 minutes on the phone.

He must have been calling his lover.

He can't use his house phone since his wife and kid are home.

Tell Officer Yoon to get the call records of the public payphone.

Yes, sir.

First, put Han Choong Ho on the wanted list.

And you look into the people who knew the dead woman, Yong Gi.

Yes, sir. - Let's go.

Yes, sir.

What are you doing? Aren't you coming?

Just a moment.

You can just leave it.

I'll clean it.

No, it's okay.

Excuse me, Detective.

Did he do something...

really bad this time?

We're not certain of anything yet.

I'll let you know as soon as I find out anything for certain.

All right.

You can't take that. What were you thinking?

I brought it because it's evidence.

Why are you so cranky?

This is where we caught Han Choong Ho.

There's no way the kid could've gone here.

He considered this his treasure. It's so neatly gathered.

My goodness.

The time of death was between 2 and 4am.

But...

did you say a pair of panties were found?

No wonder the mouth and throat were in terrible condition.

Without a doubt, the cause of death was suffocation from choking.

Do you think we're here because we don't know that?

Did you find anything else?

What is that?

It's cotton. It was in her nose.

Test results show that chloroform was on the cotton.

Chloro... What?

It's an inhalational anesthetic.

The culprit stuffed her mouth and nose with cotton balls.

You know the way they do it in the movies.

The guy anesthetized her...

and then did this to her.

The guy's a complete maniac.

Captain. - Yes?

I've brought the DNA results.

What does it say?

The fingerprints and blood found in the motel matched Han Choong Ho's.

I knew it.

This is a perfect match.

What about the call record from that public phone?

I've requested the telephone company for assistance.

I'll be heading over there soon.

All right. Check with them quickly.

What on earth is wrong with that guy today?

Is he responding?

No.

I saw it. - How about now?

It's similar to a while ago.

I saw it.

His reaction is too weak. - I saw it.

I saw it. I'm telling you I saw it.

I believe something's getting in the way...

of Mr. Han Tae Joo's consciousness.

Otherwise, it could be that he's deliberately...

avoiding this situation.

What am I avoiding?

Mr. Han. We'll continue the brainwave test.

If you want to come to, you'll have to show us something.

What on earth did I do? Tell me. What did I do?

That will be enough for today.

Yes, sir. - Don't go.

I'll prove it. I saw it.

I could see it. I saw it.

I saw it with my eyes! I could see it!

I'm telling you. I saw it!

Chief.

I much longer will I have to stay here?

Chief.

You still must not like it here.

No. It's not that.

Actually,

I remember living here.

Really?

Then...

could this be your hometown?

I'm not sure. I don't remember much of my childhood.

Some memories are coming back to me,

but they aren't pleasant ones.

No matter how hard I try,

I can't seem to remember.

Only the unpleasant memories...

keep coming back.

Everyone has those memories...

they can't seem to remember...

no matter how hard they try.

Apparently, humans can only perceive five percent of their memory.

The rest is stored in the subconscious.

It's considered a type of defense mechanism...

that helps protect oneself from bad memories.

So don't try so hard to remember everything.

Some memories may be better left forgotten...

rather than remembering them.

What are you two doing here?

I was just about to go to the telephone company.

What's wrong with your hand?

Are you trying to copy me?

It's nothing.

That's hilarious. - I like your hair.

You got a nice perm. - It's naturally curly.

It's naturally like that? - Don't lie to us.
