tell him everything in detail.
Anyway, you need to try
really hard to remember.
That's your only task in here.
Isn't that right?
Right.
Yes, do this.
Is this some kind of exercise?
No, we call it
the Temples of Doom.
From childhood,
whenever he does this
it helped him remember.
- So for memory?
- Yes, for memory.
Yes, it's some kind of,
what do you call it...
acupressure.
Oh, I remember!
What?
I didn't do it.
It wasn't me!
That's right!
Of course you didn't kill her.
No,
not that.
I didn't kick it off, the mirror!
On the Benz... Jin-tae...
It was Jin-tae who did it.
I went whoosh!
And he went crunch!
Sir.
Let me explain.
What he is saying is...
It's a long story.
Wait!
I just got an urgent message
from the office.
I need to go.
Then what about us?
For a first meeting,
this is enough.
- Should I Call you?
- I'll call you.
Then when will you call?
Sir...
What?
Did he leave?
He doesn't like us, does he?
He's a very busy man.
The most expensive lawyer
in our county.
Damn, wasn't there
anything else to tell him?
I should have said more.
Right, who cares about
the mirror?
But, you mean
it was Jin-tae who did it?
I knew it.
That rotten little scoundrel.
That jerk never came
to visit me even once.
But Do-joon,
that night, didn't you go out
to meet Jin-tae?
Then you never met him.
And the golf balls,
he knew about those, right?
Good afternoon.
I've come to see Attorney Gong.
He's not in now.
His car is outside.
He's really not here.
He is, isn't he?
Oh, Mr. Gong! Excuse me!
Oh, look who's here!
- Sir, I...
- Yes?
- Miss Kim, some green tea!
- What I'd like to say is...
If he's here, why can't I...
Ma'am,
would you prefer coffee?
To be honest,
about your case,
we are proceeding
slowly and methodically.
Here, have some.
I understand you feel impatient.
But what can we do?
You just need to wait patiently.
But we need to open an investigation
on Do-joon's friend, Jin-tae!
Ma'am!
Let me be honest with you.
In monetary terms,
if this were Seoul,
the fee we're charging
wouldn't cover an assault case
involving two broken teeth.
You should understand that.
This is Jin-tae's house.
I'm out right now,
so leave me a message.
If you are interested
in fishing equipment or bait
You can call me at
010-3154-1406.
Son of a b*tch.
Files on Scientific Investigation
Blood...
Stop.
I said stop.
Let me look at this first.
Let me take this off first.
- Cooperate a little.
- Just a sec.
Okay, okay.
There you go.
Sh*t, this is the climax.
Spa-ghet-ti!
Ti-ra-mi-su!
Tsu-na-mi!
Mi-ner-al!
Al-arm!
Arm-a-dil-lo!
Where's Je-mun?
- Detective Nam Je-mun.
- What's the problem?
Out of my way.
Push this.
It's not yours, right?
Yes!
Do I look pretty?
She put way too much on.
Isn't that...
the Manhattan lady's daughter?
Is this what you do together?
Lucky bastard.
Watch this part, here.
That's what it is, lipstick?
But do you play golf?
Me, golf?
Those professors
gave it to me when they left.
Excuse me. Sir?
Do we really have to call
the forensics team?
Anyone can tell
this is just lipstick.
All right,
tell them not to bother.
Wait!
Take an umbrella.
Wait a minute.
I went to pick you up
at the station.
Please get in.
Attorney Gong wants to see you.
Welcome, ma'am.
We started without you.
You, wait outside.
Have a seat.
You've had quite a day today.
I heard it from the police chief.
I feel so sad for you.
It's the first time I've seen
you sitting down.
Ah, you have a fine wit.
Pass her a drink.
Ma'am, do you remember
the 2002 World Cup?
The Red Devils,
Gus Hiddink!
Four years passed in a flash
I could still feel
the excitement of 2002.
But then suddenly
it was 2006.
The Germany World Cup!
Four years
is no time at all, I mean.
I really don't understand
what you're saying.
Regarding Do-joon,
let's send him off
for just four years.
It'll be a hospital, not a jail,
and he won't
have to serve 15 years.
Ma'am!
We need to think realistically.
Four years in a mental institution
for this case is a legal jackpot!
Music!
Ma'am.
I forgot to introduce you.
To my right,
my high school classmate,
the president of
Agape Psychiatric Hospital,
Doctor Yoon Jong-gu!
Hey, wake him up?
And next to me
my bar exam classmate,
Attorney Park Jong-pyo!
He's handsome.
What? Are you holding a protest?
He's smashed
after just a few drinks.
Mr. Gong!
Look, my son is...
Do-joon!
Why are you so late?
You've been drinking, haven't you?
It's so late...
Did you eat?
Eat?
I was wondering if you ate.
Thanks so much for asking.
Anyway,
I feel so f***ing betrayed.
How could you
do this to me, b*tch!
Jin-tae, I did a terrible thing.
Forget that.
Just pay me $5000
as a settlement.
In cash.
All I have right now...
it's not much...
Wait...
I've been saving this
to pay back my debt.
Take this for now.
Okay.
Send the rest to my bank account.
I'll text you the account number.
You know what texting is?
Wait. By the way,
that dead girl, Moon Ah-jung.
Do you know anything about her?
Actually there were
rumors about her from way back.
It's not nice to talk
this way about the dead,
but rumors are rumors.
Look,
there are only three motives
for murder.
Money, passion,
and vengeance.
Try to think this through.
That poor kid living on the hill,
what kind of money could she have?
So it must be
either passion or vengeance.
So we need to start
by investigating
the people around her.
But those f***ers
on the police force
found that golf ball
and just close the case?
Exactly.
Do-joon is the
obvious scapegoat for them.
If it were me,
I'd never investigate like that.
Sorry, I didn't know
you thought that way.
Of course. Do-joon has been
totally f***ed over.
I'm his friend after all.
Thank you, Jin-tae.
Don't cry!
This is no time to cry.
Quit it!
Anyway,
Do you know
what the strangest thing is?
The roof.
The body was left on the roof.
That dead girl.
Usually you bury a dead body.
But in this case,
it was hoisted up.
Her body was
practically put out on display.
Like hanging out laundry.
'Look, everyone,
I murdered this f***ing b*tch.
Do you see the corpse? '
That sort of thing...
Look.
If you put the body there,
the whole town can see it.
Anyway this neighborhood
is pretty strange.
So my point is...
Don't trust anyone.
You don't need them.
Don't even trust me.
You go out and find the real killer.
Do-joon,
you're trying hard to remember
that night, right?
If you recall
or remember something,
be sure to tell just me.
Only to me.
Do you understand?
What about that lawyer?
I fired him.
You printed the memorial photo
for Moon Ah-jung, right?
She's a real pretty girl.
That's why
'pretty girls have no luck.'
Isn't it 'pretty girls die young? '
That's why she left us early.
That girl, her mother died early
and her father ran off
with another woman.
Her relatives are
