So who's the killer?

He didn't say that, sir.

Goddamn scooters.

But he'll tell me?

Isn't that why he wants a meet?

He's not here yet.

Extra portion or regular?

We're expecting another person.

3 extras here.

Here he is.

I'm Kang Tae-oh.

Sit down.

So what's this about moving a body?

About 6 or 7 years ago,

I buried a large black plastic bag in the hill.

And it felt like a body?

It was hefty and soft, and I was about to toss it,

when I grabbed something that felt like an ankle.

The body was folded?

No, in pieces.

- By yourself? - Yup.

- Must've been heavy. - It sure was.

Why did you move it?

I had some gambling debt, and needed money.

Who ordered you?

How could I sell out

the one who trusted me and gave me work?

But it was 6 years ago.

Where did you bury it?

I heard you play golf.

Yeah, so?

Got any money?

How much?

Well, whatever you feel like.

You stink like a fish, you bastard.

Get a bath and call me.

Busan Police Narcotics Kim Hyung-min

$100 won't get me to talk.

Then how much will make you chatty?

Son of a bitch!

Hold still, asshole!

Bastard!

- Let go! - Hold still!

Don't move, you asshole!

You're under arrest for the murder of Hur Su-jin.

You have the right to remain silent and appoint a lawyer.

Fuck you, bitch!

- From narcotics? - Yes, what's going on?

We've been on him since last year.

He killed his girlfriend, Hur Su-jin.

He's a killer? That's amazing.

Did you get a new car?

Boss, I really didn't know!

That hurts! My bones are fragile!

You told him I play golf?

It's my fault for trusting an addict.

Believe me! I didn't know that.

DARK FIGURE OF CRIME

Unknown Crime

3 months later

3 months later

If getting married is such a hassle,

why aren't we all born asexual?

Our ancestors knew it was better than not doing it,

and having kids continue the lineage, right?

You're so right.

Hello?

Sir, it's me.

Who?

A few months ago,

I was arrested at a noodle shop.

Kang Tae-oh.

Where are you calling me from?

In jail.

Hold on a second.

Go on ahead with father, I'll catch up.

What is it?

You told me to call you.

You're already arrested.

Could you come for a visit?

Aside from Su-jin, there's more.

Not interested, don't call me again.

7 bodies.

What?

7, the number of people I killed.

What do you mean?

Buried in secret and tossed off a bridge too.

I called you to tell you that.

- For real? - Yes.

When?

Now I got your attention?

Why not talk to the detective in charge?

Those bastards play dirty,

so I requested a restraining order.

Did he say he chopped a body and tossed them off a bridge?

He kept quiet for a week,

but when we found the victim's blood,

we couldn't shut him up.

He claimed to have killed 3 more.

Look properly!

To the side!

Mt. Hwangryong, Daesin Park, Gwangan Bridge sea.

Shit, he screwed us good.

No bodies, and we wasted trial prep time.

That asshole had us spinning in circles.

Do cops still fabricate evidence nowadays?

What evidence?

Blinded by promotion,

they fabricated evidence that were submitted against me.

So you didn't kill her?

I totally did,

but her clothes and tape they got are fake.

Talk to your lawyer about it.

Take a look at this.

Go check it out.

You'll find her shirt,

and a blue tape that I used to tie her up.

Why should I?

Aren't you here because of The 6 other bodies?

Can a body be cut up in 7 pieces or not?

What?

Here, here, here.

Those who haven't done it don't know.

That's 6.

The spine breaks easily with a few taps

with the knife handle.

How come you didn't chop up Su-jin?

I was cutting her arm,

but her eyes were staring at me.

The rain was falling hard,

and she resisted hard, so I was frigging tired.

I was suddenly tired of it all,

and wondered why I was doing this stupid shit.

Regret killing her after the fact?

No, I should've stuck to my routine!

Precise technique, perfect finish!

I'm about to do 20 years because I ignored my routine.

- Goddammit... - Fine.

Who are the remaining 6?

- Now you're curious? - I sure am.

Then I want something in return.

Exercise Machines

There's a birdhouse here.

You'll find her shirt,

and a blue tape that I used to tie her up.

Det. Kim Hyung-min, please come forward.

The Prosecution

Det. Kim, do you know about these items?

Yes, I found them based on Kang's testimony,

the victim's clothing and a tape he used to tie her.

According to the report submitted by the forensics,

blood extracted from them match that of the victim.

Next slide shows evidences submitted by the prosecution.

You can tell the evidence feels too new.

Your Honors.

Detectives who must uphold the law

and investigate in accordance with regulations,

fabricated evidence.

Defendant Kang Tae-oh hopes to correct

this illegal practice,

and wishes that this forms a new justice model for all.

This is how you screw us?

Did you get bribed or something?!

What happened? Why the reduced sentence?

I'm so sorry, madame... Please calm down.

Death penalty isn't good enough,

but he gets 5 years less?

Explain yourself!

I was on a squid boat for a few years,

and even a deep sea fishing boat too.

I was in Ecuador for a month to fix the boat,

there was a club singer, Lanya.

She tattooed this for me.

I hope she's doing well.

Might as well.

I got caught on lucky #7.

Confession

That bitch should've mentioned the crotch swab!
