The Judge from Hell
CHARACTERS, PLACES, ORGANIZATIONS,
AND EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS
CHILD ACTORS AND ANIMALS
FILMED IN SAFE ENVIRONMEN
Damn it. There's water in my ears.
Dad!
My dad's not out yet.
Please save him!
You have to do as I say, okay?
If you don't listen to me,
I will k*ll her.
-You m*rder*r!
-[all exclaiming]
[Jayeong laughing]
RED GINSENG
He's dead.
EPISODE 4
[gasps]
Where's Jiho?
He's safe at home.
Lying makes you a bad adult.
And bad adults
must be punished.
[screams]
4 DAYS EARLIER
[car doors lock]
Judge Kang.
[sighs]
[Daon] Yoo Hyeonsu's case
will be reinvestigated soon.
As for the child abuse, Bae Jayeong
will be summoned for questioning.
That's good.
I won't bother you anymore.
Why?
I mean
What made you have this change of heart?
At first, I just wanted to prove it.
Because no one believed
I'd come back from the dead.
It was unfair,
and I wanted to find evidence
so I could prove
that what I said was true.
-But?
-But
after I spent more time with you,
my thoughts changed.
You definitely k*lled me.
And you keep pestering me
and causing problems for me.
But weirdly, I'm not scared of you,
nor can I hate you.
Do you need money or something?
Why are you so chatty today?
I won't be curious about you anymore.
I won't ask
why you k*lled me anymore either.
Really?
Can I believe you?
You can.
Do you believe I'm a demon?
Well, you're too odd to be human.
But not bad for a demon.
So I'll believe it from now on.
You're a demon now.
I already was.
Just recycle this. You're going to
bug me again tomorrow anyways.
Then
goodbye.
Aren't you drinking too much cola tonight?
Is it
that detective
who won't just leave you alone?
Do you want me to break his ribs?
Where's he stationed?
Nobong Police Station,
Violent Crime 2, Han Daon.
Nobong Police, Han Daon?
You're dead if I catch you.
[sighs] Leave him.
He says he won't be bothering me anymore.
Really?
That's a relief.
But you look so down today,
so I thought you were sick.
But actually,
Justitia experienced sudden heart
palpitations on her recent work trip.
Apparently, when humans
are in front of someone they love,
their hearts beat really fast.
[heartbeat echoing]
And they can hear their heart
pounding in their ears.
What? Love?
Do you have a death wish?
Hey, I don't know about other demons,
but that would never happen to Justitia.
[Mando] Yes, you're right.
But just in case,
if a demon falls in love,
what happens?
-They die.
-What?
There's only death for betrayers.
During your mission,
if you feel human emotions
or fall in love,
you will face a fate
even worse than death.
Then won't it be dangerous
if we stay here too long?
I've become humanized
and feel too many human emotions.
It's so tough.
Then we might fall in love and cry,
like they say.
Then Bael will k*ll us all
Stop that nonsense
and get ready for the trial.
[Arong] Should we toast?
For
For a successful trial to come?
BAE JAYEONG
[Sunhui] I hear the police
want to question you
at the station for abusing my grandson.
-That's a misunderstanding.
-Like hell it is!
Go back.
I'm never giving my Jiho to her. I won't!
How can I when she k*lled my son?
Who knows what she might do?
There's no evidence
that she k*lled your son. No proof.
My grandson saw everything.
That's why they decided
to investigate it again!
Don't ever show your face here again.
Got it?
You two-faced wench!
[imitates] What a b*tch.
[scoffs]
Goodness, look at her.
The Judge from Hell
Ma'am, do you need help?
That's so nice of you!
Then can you just
take it to that bus stop there?
[chuckles]
Goodness, how kind.
[grunts]
Thank you, young man.
Wait a second.
Take this.
RED GINSENG
Thank you.
You live with adults, right?
That's for old people like me.
If she takes it around 10 p.m.,
she'll have no pains and sleep well.
Thank you! Goodbye!
Bye. [chuckles]
-Did you do what I asked?
-Yes.
You better not tell anyone.
Of course not.
SLEEP AID
NO TRESPASSING
[Sunhui] Goodness, that feels nice.
That feels much better.
You're such a good boy. [chuckles]
RED GINSENG
[Sunhui sighs]
What's this?
Earlier, I helped an old woman
carry her things and she gave me this.
Really?
This will make the pain go away
and help you sleep.
Goodness, you're so sweet.
I'll be healthy thanks to you.
Thank you, my boy.
[doorbell jingles]
WHO IS IT?
Do you want your grandma
to die like your dad?
How's Jiho's case going?
Women and juvenile affairs at the local
precinct will investigate Ms. Bae.
Stay on it and follow up until the end.
-Yes, ma'am.
-[phone vibrating]
This is Detective Han from Nobong Police.
-Hello?
-[Jiho whimpering]
[sniffling]
Jiho?
[Jiho over phone] Mister.
Jiho, what happened? Where are you?
Mom brought me back to Seoul.
-I'm so scared
-[static]
-Hello, Jiho?
-[phone disconnects]
Where is he?
He said his mom brought him to Seoul,
but I don't know.
It's a pay phone.
I'll go.
Find out where the pay phone is
-and notify Detective Han.
-Yes, ma'am.
-You check on his grandmother, Donghun.
-Okay.
-Get to Bae Jayeong now.
-Got it.
[siren wailing]
[tense music playing]
JUDGE KANG BITNA
[phone vibrating]
[Donghun over phone] Hey, Daon.
His grandmother's in the emergency room.
-The emergency room?
-Yeah.
When the emergency services arrived,
-she was unconscious.
-How is she?
She might have taken sleeping pills,
but it could be dangerous
because of her age.
Thanks, Donghun.
-[doorbell rings]
-Ms. Bae?
Ms. Bae, are you in there?
Ms. Bae! This is Detective Han Daon.
Jiho, are you in there?
Ms. Bae!
[Donghun] We found Jiho's location.
Idong-ro 42-gil.
Jiho! Yoo Jiho!
[Jiho] Mister.
Jiho.
Jiho, why are you here?
Mom forced me to come back home.
[crying] And she filled the bathtub.
[Jayeong] The pillow game
is boring now, right?
Should we play a new game?
I want to see how long you can
hold your breath underwater.
You can't come up until I say so, okay?
Sounds fun, right?
Hello?
[woman over phone] Is this Bae Jayeong'?
Yes. Who is this?
You drowned your husband.
Do you plan to do the same to the kid?
You've got the wrong number.
Should I hand evidence over to the police
to find out if it's the wrong number?
Who are you?
What do you want? Money?
Let's talk in person.
Meet me now at the place
where you k*lled your husband.
If you don't come alone,
you'll be arrested immediately.
[in normal voice] I won't wait long.
-Hello? Hello
-[phone disconnects]
[exhales]
What did I say?
Don't call the police
and don't call Grandma.
And don't go to Grandma's.
If you don't listen to me,
I will k*ll your grandma.
I'll be back soon. Stay right here.
[tense music playing]
[TV playing indistinctly]
[phone ringing]
[Jayeong] If you don't listen to me,
I will k*ll your grandma.
[Daon] Jiho, call me
if anything happens, okay?
HAN DAON
[Jiho] Mister "Han Daon."
Zero, one, zero.
Zero, one, one, two.
Zero, one, one, nine.
I was so scared.
[crying] And you were the only person
I could think of
Come here, Jiho.
You did good, Jiho.
You did good.
[opera music playing]
[hums]
[car door closes]
[footsteps approaching]
Damn, I left my phone.
[sighs]
[gasps]
[suspenseful music playing]
[exclaims]
-[tires screeching]
-[screaming]
[breathing heavily]
[dramatic music playing]
Judge Kang?
[Mando] Justitia.
-When should I call the guys?
-Call them now.
Okay.
Are you the one who called me?
Yes, it was me.
[imitating] What?
[in normal voice] Are you surprised?
[chuckles]
-Go and wait. It won't take long.
-Okay.
[gasps softly]
What are you doing?
Where's Jiho?
He's safe at home.
Lying makes you a bad adult.
And bad adults
must be punished.
[screams]
[dramatic music playing]
[gasps]
Do you admit that you, sinner Bae Jayeong,
m*rder*d Yoo Hyeonsu
and yet are unrepentant and unforgiven?
What is this?
Why are you doing this to me?
Let me ask again.
Do you admit to your crimes?
-Crimes? What crimes?
-Another question.
What did you put on the seat belt
when you k*lled your husband?
I never did that. [yelps]
[groaning]
[breathing heavily]
[straining]
An adhesive. [panting]
A water soluble adhesive.
It dissolves in water. [groaning]
[grunts]
[screams]
[gasps, screams]
[breathing heavily]
No, no!
[exclaims]
Stop messing around and get me out now!
-Hurry!
-I'm not messing around.
I'll go first. You follow me.
[gasps] No, no!
[screaming] No!
Don't go!
Help! Get me out!
Help me!
Help me!
Help me! Help
Help me!
[tense music playing]
[muffled screams]
[continues screaming]
[gasping]
How'd the water taste?
Please don't k*ll me. Please.
Do you admit to k*lling Yoo Hyeonsu?
Yes, I k*lled him.
You k*lled your previous husband, too?
That That really was an accident
[gasps, breathing heavily]
Why did you k*ll him?
If I tell the truth,
will you let me go?
Okay. If you tell me the truth,
I'll let you go.
But
Tell me everything about the m*rder
of your ex-husband and Yoo Hyeonsu.
But if you lie, I'll beat you.
[exhales]
My ex-husband, all he had was money.
I hated the sight of him,
but I stayed in the marriage
for the apartment.
Honey, have some of this.
It's really good for you.
Hurry, drink it.
I figured I should squeeze more out of him
since he's going to die anyways.
So if he loses sight in both eyes,
that would be 120 million?
[chuckles] Okay.
It was pretty easy after that.
Because he liked to hike.
Be careful.
-Hey, stand here for a moment.
-Okay.
-I'll take a photo of you.
-Okay.
-How? Like this?
-Yes.
Okay, one, two, three [gasps]
[man] What's wrong?
[Jayeong] Oh, no.
When I dropped my phone off a cliff,
he came close.
Oh, no.
I took the chance.
[screams]
[Jayeong] And pushed him.
And the police were so dumb.
When they found out I was
a school teacher, they just believed me.
[crying] My husband just fell off a cliff.
Yes, please hurry up.
[chuckles]
That's how you got
the apartment and death benefit.
But it was too small.
Only 500 million won.
I had my own apartment now,
so I thought of making money
and happened upon a naive man.
So your motive was money.
Why else would I marry
an old man with a child?
Why did you spare Jiho?
That way, no one would suspect me.
Right.
Then why did you
bring him back from his grandmother's?
I felt sorry for my husband.
So I wanted to raise him right.
[screams]
[groaning]
You felt sorry,
but you choked the kid with a pillow
and tried to drown him in the tub?
[Jayeong] I was just playing
[screaming]
[breathing heavily]
Then smile.
I'm just playing with you, too.
Fine! I was going to
make it look like he drowned in the bath.
So I could get the money he's entitled to.
Happy now?
Do you know why I lured you out here
before you k*lled that kid?
I may be a demon, but I don't hurt kids.
Demon?
Let's finish this.
You admit to k*lling
your ex-husband and Yoo Hyeonsu, right?
Yes!
I k*lled them both!
You aren't forgiven, right?
How can they when they're dead?
So you don't regret it at all.
If I say I do,
will you believe me?
You've hurt me enough.
Now let me go.
Okay, I'll let you go.
To Hell.
You are about to be
on the receiving end of what you've done.
That's the rule in Hell.
You just experienced a bit of it earlier.
Welcome to my world.
[screams] Please! Please don't!
Please!
You're a judge. You can't do this.
No, but just like they believed you,
people believe me so easily, too.
Because I'm a judge.
What should I do?
Should I let go? Or not?
[panting] I won't do it again.
I was wrong. Please spare me!
Please don't k*ll me!
Goodbye.
[screaming]
[gasps]
Mom, let's play a fun game.
[shouting] What do you mean, a game?
Move!
Isn't it fun? It's fun, right? Say it is.
[muffled screams]
[gasping]
It's fun.
It's fun,
so please stop!
What are you talking about, Mom?
Fun time's only beginning.
[laughing]
[breathing heavily, screams]
[Justitia] Mmm Smells so healthy.
[gasping]
[whimpers]
Mmm Want some?
It's really good for you.
And it's really tasty.
What did you put in it?
[shouting] What did you put in it?
Get it away!
Say "ah."
Open your mouth. Open it.
I said open.
You gave it to your ex-husbands,
so why won't you drink it?
[gagging]
[drowsily] What did you give me?
Can you still see me?
Maybe I didn't put enough.
Still, it's fine.
This one won't be hard.
No.
No.
Don't come closer.
[gasping] Get away from me. No.
No
[screams]
[Justitia] Did you have fun?
[Jayeong] Please let me go.
[Justitia in Italian] Go to Hell.
[Jayeong grunts]
[dramatic music playing]
[grunts]
[doors rattle]
[screaming]
COIN
[in Korean] Court is adjourned.
[Mando] Are you still not done?
Just come say hello to her first.
-Quick, run!
-[worker 1] Yes, sir!
-Attention! Bow!
-[worker 2] Yes.
[both] It's an honor to meet you!
[quirky music playing]
Last time, at the scene
-[worker 2] Remove your mask.
-[worker 1] Right.
Did you like the job we did last time?
It wasn't bad.
It's such an honor.
Let me just get that blood
-[Mando] Let me.
-Recycle it.
-Yes.
-[clanks]
In front of the kids
I will get rid of the bloodstains.
SERGEANT CLEANING
Could you turn? No, I will go around.
What was I thinking?
Okay.
Okay, all done. [breathing heavily]
Should we leave the body like last time?
No.
Let's go another way this time.
What way?
[chuckles]
-[music fades]
-[cars honking]
Gosh, that stinks.
[grunts]
[screams, gasps]
[dramatic music plays]
SEOUL NOBONG POLICE STATION
WOMAN FOUND DEAD IN A BAG
NEAR NOBONG POLICE STATION
-[sirens wailing faintly]
-[chuckles]
-Push me.
-Right, of course.
[Mando grunts softly]
Why did you leave it
in front of the police station?
Judges Ahn and Seo told me to.
Surprisingly, I need
your advice on something.
-You scared me.
-[coughs]
[quirky music playing]
If you're wondering
when to give in your notice,
do it right now.
What do you need advice on?
A guy was into me but lost interest.
How can I make him come back around?
Ah [chuckles]
The man with the megaphone?
You just broke off
your engagement and are already
-Sorry, my mistake.
-[Bitna] Mmm.
Why wait?
You call him first.
-I don't want to.
-[Daeyong] Why not?
It's more fun if he calls first
and gets clingy.
Then come up with a situation
where he has no choice
but to call you first. Then he'll
Ah!
Why didn't I think of that? It's so easy.
[giggles]
Can you take mine too when you're done?
[Hwaseon clears throat]
That's why you dumped that
near the station?
Only then will Han Daon
suspect me and come to see me.
He's perfect for me to fool around with
until I go back to Hell.
But what if he sniffs you out?
What? I don't have a smell.
Do you?
[amusing music playing]
Sniffs me out?
-[shudders]
-[sighs]
-Oh, dear Lord.
-[Bitna] Let's go shopping.
[squeals] You look amazing!
I look good in anything.
[in English] Cutie,
pretty, gorgeous, elegant.
-[in Korean] Freakin' beautiful.
-Zip it.
-Freakin' beautiful.
-[chuckles]
Mmm They're all pretty.
I'll have everything from here to there.
In size small. [chuckles]
[sighs]
[sputters] Why are you so torn?
[Arong] I have lots of debt.
[both arguing indistinctly]
I wonder what Han Daon is doing.
-[Arong] Shut your mouth.
-[Mando grunts]
HAN
Oh. Oh.
I'm sorry.
[siren wailing]
Don't run even if it's tough.
Only then can you be a good detective.
[ominous music playing]
-[man speaking indistinctly on radio]
-[camera shutter clicks]
[sighs] Do you have to be
so high-maintenance?
NOBONG POLICE STATION
KCSI
That's exactly
what Moon had on his forehead.
-Gehenna.
-What kind of sick freak does that
and leaves the body by a police station?
Let's turn this into serial k*lling.
The method of k*lling
is identical to that of Moon's.
Wait. There's one more link
between these two cases.
-[knock on door]
-[door opens]
Judge Kang. Chief wants you right now.
Someone very high up is here.
I'm expecting a call, so I'm busy.
-Who is this VIP
-[door closes]
-[grunts]
-[cell phone clacks]
[knock on door]
-Come in.
-[door opens]
When is the VIP getting here?
[laughing]
Judge Kang, sit down.
I'll stand.
Assemblymen may have a lot of free time,
but judges are really busy people.
Are you going to keep being so rude?
-Yes.
-[Jaegeol chuckles]
I'd like to invite you over for dinner.
I'm going to say no and leave.
[Jaegeol] I have something to tell you.
I'd also like to tell you
what you used to be like. What do you say?
[softly] I'm not that curious.
[curious music playing]
When should I be there?
[car door closes]
[music turns amusing]
[Jaegeol] Heavenly Father,
-we thank you for this food
-[Bitna slurping] Mmm!
Korean food is the best.
[slurping] Mmm!
Right. When I leave,
pack me braised short ribs, japchae,
meatballs, and grilled deodeok root.
[chuckles]
[music fades]
[Jaegeol] You've changed a lot.
You used to feel too uncomfortable
to eat properly in front of me.
Ah, since we're talking about the past,
I have a question.
Are my parents still alive?
Why haven't they called
their daughter for several months?
They emigrated to Argentina
five years ago.
Your older brother
runs a big Japanese restaurant there.
A Korean running
a Japanese restaurant in Argentina?
Wow. How international. [chuckles]
It's nice
that they're too far away for me to visit.
So, you're no longer
interested in politics?
Was I interested in politics?
[Jaegeol] What?
[Taegyu sighs]
Bitna, my father
Right I guess I can't do that anymore.
My father adored you, Judge Kang.
From the day you first met
in a private setting,
he selected you
to be his political successor.
Why me over your own children?
Taegyu, as you know,
found his place in business.
And my second [sighs deeply]
So what did they say at the hospital?
I haven't been going.
And I don't care
if my memory never returns.
Who stabbed me and why
I'm not curious at all.
Actually, when the incident occurred,
I blocked any news from getting out.
Your engagement had just been broken,
and I didn't want people talking.
But I think I was wrong.
I should've publicized it
and caught whoever did that to you.
[chuckles] It's all right.
You did what you did for my sake.
Oh, right.
I hear you're renting
a small villa in Hwangcheon-dong.
-Did you do a background check on me?
-Only because I was worried.
[inhales deeply]
I don't know what's going on,
but I will help you.
It's all right. I like it there.
It's cheap and quiet.
Except for the landlady.
Speaking of the landlady,
why on earth
is she so against redevelopment?
Is she holding out? [scoffs]
I don't know.
[laughing]
By the way,
doesn't Seonho know Judge Kang is here?
-Tell him to come say hello.
-[Taegyu sighs]
I'm sure he's sleeping.
[sighs deeply]
[curious music playing]
[teacup clangs softly]
Thank you.
-[car door closes]
-[engine starts]
[pop song playing faintly on speakers]
-[doorbell chiming]
-Welcom
Hey!
Justitia.
[song continues playing faintly]
Did you skip dinner?
Mmm-hmm.
I have to wait a bit longer for my pay.
What's her story?
Why is she working several jobs
-and not even eating properly?
-Oh, her?
She grew up in an orphanage
but left when she was no longer covered.
But she was scammed by her friend.
She lost all her savings.
Eventually, she took her own life.
I WANT TO STOP. I'M LEAVING.
[quirky tinkling music playing]
Why don't you live a bit longer?
[music turns ethereal]
[music quickens]
Did you get her money back?
One look at the baseball bat,
and they gave it back. [chuckles]
Oh, right. Was his name Koo Mando?
How did he die?
That one's a complete sob story as well.
He was a court clerk
and died from overwork.
And he's never dated.
[gasps, sighs]
What a terrible tragedy.
[Valak sighs] How terrible.
That's going to be my face?
He's already so bloated.
[inhales noisily]
[amusing music playing]
[exhales]
See if you can find K*llers
still at large with multiple victims.
Okay. How many?
Fifteen or so? The more, the better.
I guess if you have to k*ll 20
within a year,
going about it one by one just won't work.
That's true, but more than that,
I'm bored these days.
I want to go back.
-[amusing music playing]
-[pages rustling]
JUDGE KANG BITNA
[sighs]
-[groans]
-[telephone ringing]
Yes?
A detective's here to see me?
[music fades]
It's been a while.
I wanted to ask for your cooperation
on a serial k*ller case.
Okay.
-Thank you for making the time.
-[chuckles]
We government workers
should help each other out.
-[siren wailing faintly]
-But where's Detective Han?
He's actually waiting for you.
-This way.
-Okay.
Where were you the night Bae Jayeong died?
Are you suspecting me right now?
[sighs] Both Moon Jeongjun and Bae Jayeong
were m*rder*d
after being tried as defendants
by you recently.
[Bitna] I take on
about 200 cases per month.
Are all 200 of them dead?
We're investigating
with all possibilities open.
Then shouldn't you be questioned first?
You went to Moon Jeongjun's house
after he was released.
And you were with Jiho
the night Bae Jayeong disappeared.
Who do you think
behaved more suspiciously?
You or me?
[sighs softly]
You're glad Bae Jayeong's dead, right?
Aren't you thrilled?
No.
I'm angry
that she wasn't legally punished.
[somber music playing]
Because she died that way,
we can no longer get to the truth
of Yoo Hyeonsu's death
or the abuse Jiho experienced.
Why is the truth so important?
What matters is that a bad person is gone.
You didn't do it, did you?
[chuckles] Probably not.
Since there's no evidence.
[music fades]
[siren wailing faintly]
[sighs]
[sputters] What are you doing?
Can you escort me home?
I'm tired from the questioning.
Right. You were curious about me,
so I got some information.
I got engaged
to Assemblyman Jeong's eldest son,
but I broke it off in a month.
And my family emigrated to Argentina.
My brother's the Sushi King.
I don't care.
What?
You wanted to know, so I sat
through a boring evening to find out.
[laughs loftily] How disappointing.
Do you know what Gehenna is?
It means "Hell" in ancient Greek.
-I don't know.
-Shouldn't a demon know that?
Then
have you stabbed anyone to death
other than me?
Show me the knife you stabbed me with now.
-[spooky mystical music playing]
-[chuckles]
I know why you suspect me.
But it's not me.
If I did k*ll Moon Jeongjun
and Bae Jayeong,
they would have
come back to life like you.
Look at me.
[music fades]
[Daon sighs]
What's with the reaction?
You should get mad at me like last time
or shove your cross necklace in my face.
Demons can joke around, too. It's fine.
-[sighs]
-[chuckles incredulously]
How unamusing.
This is boring. It's not fun.
Bye.
If you're curious about something,
you should stick around and find out.
Why give up?
I promised not to be
curious about you anymore.
Promises and skulls
are meant to be broken.
So go back to being
curious about me and annoying me.
Why should I do that?
Because it's fun for me.
[woman] Leave right now!
Don't ever see this woman again
or spend time with her.
If you two stay together,
one of you will die for sure.
Listen to me, or you'll regret it later.
Excuse me, ma'am?
How did you know that I died?
Don't even come
near this neighborhood again.
-Leave now! You, get out of the way!
-[Bitna grunts]
[ominous music playing]
[gasps] Wow, she's so good.
I should have her tell my fortune.
Didn't you hear her?
Boring and dull Detective Han,
goodbye forever.
[music turns somber]
[Bitna] To Hell.
[woman] Don't ever see this woman again
or spend time with her.
One of you will die for sure.
[sighing]
[knock on door]
[knocking continues]
Hey!
-What Hey!
-[bottles clinking]
[Daon chuckles] What is this?
-[woman] Cheers!
-[Hyeongseok laughs]
[exhales]
Drinking here is therapeutic.
Why did you bring so much?
It's not much.
Honey, eat up.
Daon, I heard you got a girlfriend.
But you got dumped after three days
and clung to her.
Who said that?
Did she?
[amusing music playing]
I just told her what I saw.
I hear she's a judge.
I'll have to check her out for myself.
So arrange a meeting at a pizza place.
I'm not seeing her anymore. She's a demon.
Yeah, just forget her.
There are so many good women around.
Like your boss. [chuckles]
Hey, this is Why do you always
-I'll get going! Bye!
-Hey!
-Hey! Come here!
-[squealing]
[Hyeongseok] How could you
-[music fades]
-[scoffs]
Hyeongseok hasn't changed.
He's still so fun.
He fools around too much
and never grows up.
I'm raising three kids on my own.
Did it hurt a lot?
This? It's been so long,
I don't remember. [chuckles]
I still remember it all.
I never listened to you back then.
Only back then?
[Daon chuckling]
By the way,
why do you care about Jiho so much?
[emotional piano music playing]
[Soyeong sighs]
-It reminds me of you as a boy.
-Yeah.
That's why I wanted to protect him.
Like you and Hyeongseok protected me.
You know why I became a detective, right?
I haven't forgotten my promise to you.
I'm going to keep it.
So don't dwell on the past.
Only look to the future.
I'll take care of the past.
[Daon] Okay.
[Arong] "J, a serial k*ller
with 12 victims, is still at large."
"A statute of limitations on J
has expired on May 8, 2014."
"This case that took the lives
of 12 innocent citizens
still remains a mystery."
So you're telling me
I should solve that mystery?
So far, you have taken care of three.
If you catch this one,
your total will be 15.
After that,
you'll only need to k*ll five more
to return to Hell.
Do you think it'll be that easy?
Stop being such a downer
and get your head on the ground.
Are there any witnesses?
A 10-year-old kid survived
after seeing the k*ller,
but he was a kid in 1999,
so I guess he should be about 30 now.
Find out where he is.
Okay.
By the way,
that detective Han Daon
is not bothering you anymore, right?
No. He says he's not interested anymore.
-It's so annoying.
-That's a relief.
[chuckles] I'll find out
where this kid is.
Okay.
Here's the autopsy report.
Cause of death is severe bleeding.
Any forensic evidence at the scene?
Anything around the river
where Bae's car was found?
So far, there aren't any clues.
That's baffling.
How are we going to solve this?
We just have to.
[sighs]
[exhales] Listen. I don't know
much about these things.
So can I ask you something?
[ominous music playing]
She was m*rder*d, but she deserved it.
Do you have to catch the k*ller?
[sighs]
[Eunseop] About Bae Jayeong,
wasn't her car found by the river
where Yoo Hyeonsu was found?
It's quite a distance
from where the body was found.
Don't you think something's off here?
Just recycle this.
[music turns thrilling]
[can hisses, opens]
[music fades]
Someone left this
at the front desk last night.
"Gift"?
YOO JIHO
GIF
[can opens]
What's the gift?
Do I look like this?
-[amusing awkward music playing]
-[gasps]
Wow, that's
You can use this as your funeral photo.
[slams table]
Should I throw it out?
No, leave it.
[music turns amusing]
Do you know any demons in Heaven?
[stuttering] Come on,
how can demons enter Heaven?
But why do you ask?
I wanted to find something out,
but never mind.
But why are your hands shaking?
[heart thumping]
[stuttering] I have a tremor. [chuckling]
Your work's been sloppy these days.
-Get it together.
-I will.
[inhales] My eyes don't match.
[clicks tongue]
POST OFFICE
Jiho.
Is this your home?
Yes, but
Who are you?
I'm a mailman.
Your mom and dad sent you a letter.
My mom and dad passed away.
They can't send me letters.
Do you want to see for yourself?
[melancholy music playing]
"Dear Jiho."
"I'm in Heaven with Mom now."
"I'm sorry for leaving you so soon."
"Mom says she's sorry, too."
"But your mom and I
love you very much
[crying] and will always love you."
"We will see each other again
and be a happy family."
LOVE, YOUR DAD
Is there
something you'd like to say
to your mom and dad?
Just that
I will take care of Grandma,
so they don't have to worry.
And that I'm doing well [sniffles]
so they don't have to worry.
[classical music playing on vinyl player,
Pucini "Madama Butterfly"]
THE SCREWTAPE LETTERS
Why is a demon so chatty?
Why doesn't he just go and beat them up?
[clicks tongue]
[doorbell rings]
-[landlady] Unit 201!
-[doorbell rings]
Can you come out?
I won't ask you to come to church.
[amusing music playing]
[snoring]
[landlady] I brought you some rice cakes.
Don't you want some?
-[church bell rings]
-[slurping]
Rice cakes?
My goodness.
You know
the Lord loves you
even if you pretend not to be home, right?
-I don't.
-Of course you do.
God's love is as warm
as these rice cakes. Here.
I like the honey ones.
The red bean ones are for when you move.
-Move?
-I'll leave you to talk.
[wind blowing]
[music turns dreamy]
You said we'd never see each other again.
I changed my mind.
Why?
I'm curious again.
About you, Kang Bitna.
[scoffs] Unbelievable
You're so bothersome.
-[music fades]
-[heart thumping]
[Bitna panting]
Are you messing around again?
You won't fool me this time.
[Bitna groans, gasps]
-[heart thumping]
-[panting]
-[panting]
-[Daon sputters]
-Judge Kang.
-[groans]
Judge Kang.
-[heart thumping intensifies]
-[ominous music playing]
Judge
[chorus singing]
Judge Kang. Judge Kang!
Judge Kang Bitna! Judge Kang!
The Judge from Hell
[in English] Lost ♪
In the dark alone ♪
When is it not justice ♪
Justice, justice ♪
Welcome to my ♪
You little
-[spits]
-[yelps]
[Bitna]
Why are you curious about me again?
[Daon] I wanted to confirm
what kind of person Kang Bitna is.
I want to know everything.
Get away from Judge Kang Bitna right now.
Han Daon is suspicious of me right now.
No one can catch me.
[bawling] They're all dead. What do I do?
[man] I think I know who did it.
[laughing]
[camera shutter clicking]
He k*lled three?
[man 1] Kang Bitna is the judge.
[man 2] I don't care if we're in court!
[man 2 panting]
Hey, b*tch.
-You having fun? Do you want to die, too?
-[officers grunting]
[Bitna] Insanity or idiocy,
he's still a k*ller.
The man. Where is he?
[Bitna] Don't do anything.
Or say anything.
