So late...

What was her name, Ah-jung?

It's Moon Ah-Jung.

Seorin Girls' High School,

second year, fourth class.

You called her house?

She has guardians?

There's a grandmother,

but she's a real loon.

Always walking around with

a rice liquor bottle in her fist,

making a scene.

So the kid is the guardian.

She takes care of her grandma.

Anyway, how long has it been

since we had a murder case?

It's the first since I came here.

Has it been that long?

Yep.

The crime scene seems intact.

It is.

Quite a picture, huh?

Cops these days...

You know, CSI and all that on TV.

They all watch it.

The forensics team

is pretty sharp, too.

Anyway,

a rain shower passed earlier.

So things must be

pretty mucked up.

I suppose.

Anyway, it must have been

a blunt object.

A fractured cranium,

lots of blood...

What's with this?

Didn't this come in last week?

God, that smell...

Yeah, well...

This smells like a rotting corpse.

My god!

Look at this if you're not blind.

And the appearance...

People are going to think

they're from China.

Ma'am, these are from China.

Hey!

Give me a break.

Don't even mention China.

Besides, Chinese imports

aren't that bad.

Don't tell me...

You're still giving acupuncture

without a license?

No, no way!

My husband is a public official.

You know how much trouble

we'll be in?

Sure, I know.

He'll be promoted soon,

so let's not cause any trouble.

Last year, do you know how hard

it was to cover for you?

You think only you will

get in trouble?

It will ruin my family completely.

Listen when someone's

talking to you.

Mom!

Do-joon! Do-joon!

Mom!

Get down!

Oh geez...

She's a good runner.

Yoon Do-joon, you're charged with

the murder of Moon Ah-jung.

You have the right to remain silent

but there's no way

you'll be able to afford a lawyer.

There she is.

Not that she can

afford to do anything.

Can't you drive, idiot?

Are you hurt anywhere?

Turn your head.

Your head isn't hurt?

Turn your head around.

Why is he...

- A dog?

- Dog...

- A wolf?

- Dog...

It's usually hot here.

We're all guys here,

so take that off.

Your pants too, okay?

- Pants?

- Take off your pants, it's okay.

This isn't police torture.

I'm taking my pants off too.

It feels good.

Anyway Do-joon,

Have you heard of Sepaktakraw?

- You have, right?

- No.

Only likes mainstream sports,

the f***er.

Bite it!

Come here and bite it.

That's right, turn around.

The sin always turns around.

Stand straight. Close your eyes.

Don't move or you'll get hurt.

Bite it hard!

Did you see it?

I bet not.

This is power of Sepaktakraw.

It's one of the basic moves.

From now on, if you don't

answer clearly yes or no,
