The Woman in the White Car (2025) Movie Script
(Jung Ryeo Won Lee Jung-eun)
(Directed by Christine Ko)
(Seolwon Hospital)
Sis, wake up!
Sis!
Hel... Help me!
Please help!
Good morning, this is Ha-yeon
with your morning show!
They say winter is a season
for preparation,
which means,
there are a lot of things
you need to be award of.
Please help!
Oh gosh!
(The Woman in the White Car)
Got a call from Seolwon Hospital.
Two sisters came in.
Apparently the younger one
seemed really beaten up.
The older one has fractures
on both her hands,
badly bruised legs,
and was stabbed in the abdomen
so she's in surgery.
Maybe they exchanged blows,
then pulled a knife on each other?
Seems intense for a family fight.
It's intense because it's family.
Next patient, please come in.
(Intensive Care Unit)
Excuse me...
Hi, how is everything here?
What time did she
come to the hospital?
I think around 7 a.m.?
7 a.m...
Hi there.
Could you tell me your name?
It's Woo Do-kyung.
Ms. Woo Do-kyung.
Are you doing okay?
It seems like she needs to be
treated as well.
Yes, but she still seems to be
in shock.
She's been refusing treatment,
and just sitting there,
staring at the doors.
Is it because you're worried
about your sister?
She'll be all right.
Take if from someone
who's been through it.
You can trust me.
(Seolwon Hospital)
All one. You should rest.
Here, this will warm you up.
Thank you.
Ms. Woo Do-kyung.
Do you feel a little calmer now?
- Yoo Do-kyung.
- Pardon?
It's Yoo Do-kyung,
not Woo Do-kyung.
Oh, okay. Yoo Do-kyung.
I'm Sergeant Kim Hyun-ju
from Musang Police Station.
I'm going to ask you
a few questions,
do you think you can answer
them for me?
Yes.
Can I get your birth date
and occupation, please?
October 28th, 1989.
I'm...
A writer.
Oh, you're a writer!
And your address?
Musang-my eon, Samsan-ri 20-3.
Is that where you were injured?
At home?
Yes.
What about your sister's name
and birth date?
Name Yoo Mi-kyung,
born March 6th, 1987.
Were there any other family
members with you at home?
Maybe your parents?
Our parents passed away
5 years ago.
So it was just the two of you,
you and your sister?
No.
There was one other person.
Who was it?
My future brother-in-law.
Sis!
Do-kyung!
Who is this?
Me?
I'm the man who's going to be
your brother-in-law.
Nice to meet you.
I've heard a lot about you.
He
was an unsettling presence,
from the beginning.
But my sister had chosen him,
and I wanted to be happy for her.
It's not much but...
hope you like it.
You made noodles for us?
Wow, that's sweet of you.
Hey, sis.
Are you messing with me right now?
Excuse me?
Do you know how gruelling it was
to drive this far out?
A full-on feast would
barely satisfy me,
let alone some goddamn
measly noodles!
And then...
He started to yell and get angry.
Just like that, all of a sudden?
Yes.
Then what happened?
You must have been startled.
He's a little rough
around the edges,
but he's not a bad guy.
How did you two meet?
Just
it was kind of like
a car accident.
He hit you with his car?
Why are you laughing?
I'm being serious...
That's why it's funny!
Be quiet!
It must have
slipped out of my hands.
She pretended
everything was okay,
but I could tell.
That she wasn't okay
with him either.
Then, the night came.
Please!
Jung-man!
Hey! Get up!
Please no!
Answer me, goddamn it!
Please? Please what?
Sis!
You know couples fight
all the time right?
It's nothing,
so just go back to bed.
Hey!
Where do you think
you're going, huh?
Hey!
No!
Sis!
You still don't get it, do you?
Stop it!
You little...
I told you to go back to bed!
Why won't you do as you're told?
Stop it, Jung-man!
Do you think I'm an idiot too?
You wenches...
Today
I'm going to teach
you both a lesson!
Wow...
That must have been
quite frightening.
But
your sister used
a rock to hit him?
Yes.
How is that possible?
You told me both her hands
were broken.
Well, I...
I don't quite remember...
And the car was
in really bad shape too.
Did you get in an accident
on your way here?
I'm not sure.
You're not sure?
I'm still a little confused...
Do you remember
your brother-in-law's name?
Stop it, Jung-man!
Something...
Jung-man.
Jung-man.
It's not my sister's fault!
Hyung-nim.
Did you finish getting
her statement?
Yeah, She says
her brother-in-law did it.
- Her brother-in-law?
- Yep.
The brother-in-law beat
Do-kyung, stabbed her sister,
and the sisters barely escaped.
Let's go get this Jung-man first.
Wait a second.
Is that what Do-kyung said?
- That they're sisters?
- Why?
Apparently she's not her sister.
What?
The stabbed woman in surgery,
is not Do-kyung's real sister.
They're not related at all.
Have a look.
Here.
This nurse with the bob haircut
is her real sister.
The name's Yoo Mi-kyung.
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
Everyone who's worked
here for a while
seemed to remember her.
So who's the woman in surgery?
No one knows.
She didn't have any ID on her,
and they've never seen her before.
Do-kyung.
The woman in surgery right now,
what's her name?
Yoo Mi-kyung.
That's your sister's name.
Who is the woman that
you brought to the hospital?
Yoo Mi-kyung, my sister.
Here, look at this.
Who is this?
My sister, Mi-kyung.
Then what about her?
Who is she?
My sister...?
No, look,
this is a different person.
Do-kyung.
Have you been drinking?
I'm sorry... I...
I take medication.
You take what?
Medication...
I'm a little broken up here...
They say she was diagnosed
with schizophrenia last year.
Help! She's trying to kill me!
You tell her!!
Hurry up and tell her!
Before that, she was being
treated for severe depression.
They said her sister quit her job
to take care of her full-time.
They were in and out of
the hospital until last year,
but recently it became
too much for them,
and she left Do-kyung at home.
So that's what happened.
Have you tried calling the sister?
Yeah, she's not picking up.
The other woman,
who could she be?
Not her real sister but,
maybe someone she's close to?
That's probably why
she brought her fiance with her.
Something's off.
From what she told me,
that guy Jung-man sounded like
a real piece of work.
Why would she introduce someone
like him to a sick person?
What if Do-kyung is
mixing things up?
Mixing what up?
Think about it,
she's schizophrenic.
Sis...
Do-kyung thought
Jung-man was unsettling, but
that might be because
she wasn't entirely
in her right mind.
Do-kyung!
In reality, he could have been
a normal guy.
Then what about the stabbing?
That...
Oh, I got it!
It was...
- Do-kyung!
- What?
Have you seen 'Psycho'?
No!
Do-kyung thinks he stabbed
her sister,
but really...
She did it herself!
That's enough!
You have arrived
at your destination.
What? This is it?
It's... different from
what I imagined.
What brings you here?
We're from the Musang station.
This is Musang-my eon.
Samsan-ri 20-3, right?
Yes, that's right.
Is there a problem?
We were called in on a case.
A resident may have been
stabbed here.
What?
Do you recognize this woman?
I don't think so.
I haven't seen her before.
Then, how about her?
Oh, she's in Unit 1
in building 103!
She's the one who's been hurt?
No, the one injured is
actually her sister.
Could I have a look at
the security footage?
Oh, there she is!
Here's the list of residents.
Yoo Mi-kyung lives
by herself in Unit 1.
No one is listed
to be living with her.
Yes, that's right.
Mi-kyung, when did she leave
the house yesterday?
Around 4 p.m.
She hasn't been back since then.
No visitors either.
Maybe Do-kyung really did
make everything up!
She's a mental patient!
I knew we shouldn't have
believed a sick person.
Don't believe everything
someone tells you
because they seem normal.
And don't ignore everything
someone tells you
just because they're ill.
Yes sir.
One thing's for sure,
this isn't the crime scene.
And it's not where
Do-kyung lives either.
But Do-kyung's sister...
She supposedly quit her job
to take care of Do-kyung,
and yet she lives in
this fancy place by herself?
That's a good point.
(Seolwon Hospital)
I have to go!
Please let me go!
Please let me in!
What's the matter?
What's going on here?
The stabbing patient just got
out of surgery and needs to rest,
but she keeps insisting that
she be let inside.
I need to make sure
my sister is okay!
I told you,
she's not your actual sister!
We all understand that,
but maybe she'll calm down
once you let her see her
for a minute?
We considered it
but she's just being too erratic.
When we opened the door,
she just bolted towards her
and we had a hard time
separating them.
Do-kyung!
Please let me
see my sister just once.
Sis, are you okay? Sis!
Do-kyung!
Your sister needs to rest.
If you keep acting like this,
she'll get worse.
Let's not do this here,
come with us.
If you come with us and
calm down a bit,
I'm sure your sister will
come around soon.
Okay?
Your sister still isn't
answering her phone.
But we left messages for her,
I'm sure she'll get
back to us soon.
Okay.
Anyway,
we went to the address
you gave us.
It turns out
that's Mi-kyung's house.
You two live separately, right?
Yes.
Do you know the address
of your house?
The house that your sister and
her fiance visited?
Is it close to
your sister's house?
It's close to the mountains.
Mountains?
So, there are mountains nearby.
What else is around it?
There's nothing else.
Do-kyung, does your sister
come see you often?
Sometimes.
How many times a week?
I'm not sure.
Not often, she's very busy.
You little crap, how dare you
look at me that way!
Do you know who I am?
I don't know who you are
but you need to let us through!
Shut up!
There he goes again.
Good luck.
Thanks.
Should we go to the station
right next door?
The police?
Don't bring up the police!
He's really not listening at all.
The goddamn police!
Do you know who you're talking to?
Lower your eyes, you little...!
The bottle...
Let go!
Where the hell have you been?
Why are you just now
showing your face?
Just let go of this.
If you so much as touch
anyone with this,
you'll be charged with assault.
Let go! Let go of me!
Useless...!
Do you not care if I live or die
on the goddamn street?
Give me the bottle.
Aren't you going to give it back?
Give it back. Hurry up.
Where are you going?
Give me back the bottle!
Give it back!
It's me.
She's from Samsan-ri,
but something happened there
so she can't go back home.
Anyway, it's a long story.
Just charge me for her room.
She's been through a lot,
so don't bother her.
All right, I got it!
If you need anything,
just dial 0 on the phone.
The nice lady at the front
will answer.
And let me give you my number.
Your cell phone?
I don't know where it is.
Then I'll just write it down
for you.
Oh, and your car keys.
That is not my car.
Please take care of it
for me, detective.
Oh, I'm not a detective...
Okay, I'll hold on to it.
Rest well!
Sis, wake up.
(The Mobility Kit)
(Musang-my eon)
Yeah, the car is registered to
a Choi Jung-man.
(Driver Registration)
Check his record for any priors.
Okay, hold on a second.
(Police Records)
(Kidnapping / Assault)
Hyun-ju!
He's been arrested for
kidnapping before!
4 years ago, when his girlfriend.
Jung Jun-seo broke up with him,
he kidnapped her,
kept her locked in his house
for two days and assaulted her.
He served 3 years in prison
and was released last year.
Hold on.
Maybe the woman in the hospital
is Jung Jun-seo?
I already checked,
but it's not her.
That woman in the hospital...
Is it too much to think she was
kidnapped too,
like Jung Jun-seo?
It's a reasonable assumption.
But if she was kidnapped too,
why did Jung-man take her to
Do-kyung's house?
How did you two meet?
It was kind of like
a car accident.
A car accident.
Huh?
That's what Do-kyung said.
That her sister and her fiance
met like a car accident.
Can we take her word for it?
A schizophrenic?
Though we can't believe everything
a schizophrenic tells us,
based on keywords that
she remembers,
we can still deduce
the conversation.
There was a tire repair kit
in the back seat.
Usually people would keep that
in the trunk,
but because he had the victim
locked in the back,
maybe he had to move it.
Choi Jung-man abducted the victim,
locked her in the trunk,
Oh! And the front bumper was
crushed in as well.
Somewhere along the way
he crashes into something.
What? Oh!
If it wasn't a big deal,
he would've patched things up
and carried on.
But since he wasn't
able to do that,
maybe Choi Jung-man injured
in the crash.
He probably couldn't call
insurance or an ambulance.
Because in the trunk
was the woman he had abducted.
The map says it's close by
but I don't see a thing.
No one would know
if something happened here.
That over there,
isn't that a house?
You're right!
Pull over right here.
Mr. Choi Jung-man, are you there?
This is the police!
What kind of a room is this?
(The Woman in the White Car)
(The man buried the body
in the mountains)
(Because, because,
because, because)
(The woman got in the white car)
Hyun-ju.
Did you know
Do-kyung was a writer?
She did mention it.
She wasn't just an average writer.
She was hailed as a prodigy!
When she was 15,
she won the Grand Prize
in some competition.
She's already published
more than 10 books.
So how did she end up like this?
Her parents passed away suddenly
in an accident,
and apparently,
she was very traumatized.
She had a severe panic attack
at a book signing.
And after that,
it says she's just been at home,
writing and being treated.
Let's see.
Choi Jung-man probably came
through here too.
But wait,
why would he bring
the victim with him
and not keep her
locked in the car?
He probably wanted to
avoid suspicion.
A male stranger asking for help,
or a couple asking for help.
Which would seem less suspicious?
Don't move.
But if the victim courageously
made a move,
his cover would be blown.
Would he have risked that?
He probably felt like
he had control over the situation.
He must have checked to see that
a woman lived here alone.
So if anything went wrong,
he knew he could overpower
the victim and Do-kyung.
But even if she was scared of him,
do you really think
she would have stayed still?
It might just be her
last chance to escape.
She may have
mustered up the courage.
Hel...
But, I'm sure it was no use.
- Help!
- Sis!
Who is this?
My future brother-in-law perhaps?
Oh, yeah. Nice to meet you.
Come on in!
I made this as a way of
saying congratulations.
Noodles!
Please, eat!
When it became her
how sick Do-kyung was,
Choi Jung-man probably let loose.
Look at me,
don't put your head down!
Answer me!
She's still not picking up?
Yeah, no answer.
So she just left her sick sister
stranded in some lone house.
I'm dying to know
what she's doing
and where she is.
Where are you going?
I'm going to take a look around.
We still don't have eyes on
the suspect at all!
Don't you think he would've
made a run for it by now?
He probably froze to death
if he was hiding out here.
He could have
left behind evidence.
Why do you live like this?
What did you just say?
I phrased that badly,
but what I'm trying to say is,
why are you stuck in
a small town like this?
Have you committed yourself
to be buried here?
If I go, who's going to
take care of the old man?
Will you do it?
Why me?
Exactly.
So I have to stay and
take care of him.
No one gives out awards for that.
I just want you
to live your best life.
It's your life!
Don't let him decide for you.
Live how you want to live...
There are signs
of violent assault.
Fractures all over.
Cause of death?
- What did they say?
- They'll know after autopsy.
It could be cerebral haemorrhaging
from the skull fracture,
or cardiac arrest caused
by hypothermia.
What did the detectives say?
Are they going to take over?
They're busy with
the illegal gambling case.
They want us to
do the best we can.
Okay, let's talk later.
Hey you, Kim Hyun-ju!
Do-kyung, open the door!
Do-kyung!
Do-kyung!
(ICU Restricted Area)
Wake up.
Wake up.
Eun-seo!
What is it?
Do-kyung, please step outside.
You're under arrest for
the murder of Choi Jung-man.
You have the right
to remain silent.
You have the right to be
represented by a lawyer.
Anything you say can be used
against you in a court of law.
Wait, I... I killed someone?
The man you said was
your brother-in-law.
Right now,
he's lying in the morgue.
When we found him,
his hands and feet
were bound by tape.
There wasn't a single part of
his body that was intact.
Someone tied him up and
beat him senseless.
But you
you already knew that, didn't you?
That Choi Jung-man is dead.
You said so yourself.
It's not my sister's fault!
"It's not my sister's fault!"
A woman who was stabbed...
What could she
possibly have done wrong?
You already knew.
From the minute
you left the house,
That Choi Jung-man
was already dead.
It's not my sister's fault!
You're right.
This woman here
is totally innocent.
Both her hands are broken.
You can't pick up anything
with those hands,
let alone a rock.
So in conclusion,
the person who killed
Choi Jung-man is...
Yoo Do-kyung.
It was you.
What are you doing?
Please leave right now!
Yes, we're leaving.
Wait a minute!
I have something to say
to my sister!
Please wait!
Sis! No! No!
Look here!
That woman is not your sister!
Please wake her up just this once
I need to talk to her.
No! Please!
Where are you taking me?
No! Sis! Sis!
I'll go get the attending!
No! No!
Doctor!
Sis!
Sis!
I didn't kill him!
My sister will tell you!
Please let me talk to my sister!
Sis!
Doctor!
Sis!
- Charge 200.
- Clear.
Charge 250, shock!
Sis!
Sis!
Can you hear us?
Please call the police.
I saw who did it.
I'm Sergeant Kim Hyun-ju
from Musang Police Station.
You saw who killed Choi Jung-man?
Yes.
The killer isn't Do-kyung,
but someone else.
So what really happened?
I was just heading back home
from the grocery store.
Someone attacked me
from behind with a taser.
I fainted but when I woke up,
I was in the trunk of a car.
And just when I sensed that
my life had taken
a very wrong turn,
there was a crash.
I don't know how much time passed.
When I woke up again,
she was there.
You're awake.
How are you feeling?
The woman was...
Yoo Mi-kyung.
This is Do-kyung's real sister.
Name's Yoo Mi-Kyung.
You're saying Yoo Mi-kyung
was at the scene?
You must be in such shock.
I saw that there had been
a car crash.
So I brought you here.
An ambulance is on the way.
What about the other person
in the car?
Who?
You were alone when I saw you.
Hey, Could you call the police?
I think I've been kidnapped...
Kidnapped?
Mi-kyung!
Don't tease her so much.
She might cry.
Did you fix the car?
Yeah. Pretty much.
Pretty much?
It should be completely fixed.
Yeah, I'll get it done my way.
Your way?
Your stupid way is
what got you into this mess.
Thank god it was
right near the house,
what would've happened
if you crashed somewhere else?
Just leave me alone
when I'm eating, will you?
Leave you alone?
A jerk like you
doesn't deserve to eat.
What are you doing?
What am I doing? How can you
eat at a time like this?
I was going to fix it
after dinner!
Fix it first then eat!
Goddamn it!
What are you going
to do with her?
Why can't I just eat first?
What are you doing?
What's going on?
I think her hands are making
her uncomfortable.
She's trying to get them free.
Hey you.
Do you want me to
kill you right now?
Don't yell like an idiot.
We just have to show, not tell.
So the hands were
Yoo Mi-kyung's work...
But how did you run away
with injured hands?
Hold on a second.
You're saying Do-kyung was
in the bathroom until then?
For the whole day?
Yes, isn't that strange?
For a minute, I thought
I was seeing things too.
May I continue?
Dammit, where did she go?
Damn, she got away!
She's injured
so she can't have gone far.
How do you know
if she ran away
an hour ago or two?
How the hell would you know?
Wait, how did you get out?
You, come here.
Did you let her go?
Who are you?
Dammit, not this crap again!
Hey, stop it!
Get off of me!
I didn't like you from the start.
I'm going to teach you
a proper lesson today.
This is all your fault!
It's your fault!!
You idiot!
Why is it my sister's fault?
It's all because of you!
You stupid piece of crap!
My life wouldn't be this messed up
if I didn't met you at all!
Dammit!
That woman...
I couldn't believe what she said
when she had just killed someone.
I knew it would
eventually come to this.
Either that jerk kills me,
or I kill him.
For us, the end has to be
one or the other.
Then she went on to yell
at a hysterical Do-kyung.
It's better that
he died instead of me.
So this worked out well.
Right?
Stop crying!
You'd be dead too
if it weren't for me.
It's not my fault,
do you understand?
It's not your fault!
It's not my fault.
I'm going to go find the girl
who ran away.
Stay inside since it's cold.
Sis?
Dammit, so that's where you were.
No!
Get up!
Sis?
Wake up!
Hang on just a little longer!
Sis?
At some point, I fainted.
When I woke up,
I was here in this room.
Let me double-check a few things.
Choi Jung-man was found dead
with his hands and feet
taped together.
Did you happen to see who did it?
No.
But he wasn't tied up
when Do-kyung and I
left the house.
Wouldn't it be Mi-kyung?
So you're saying Yoo Mi-kyung
killed Choi Jung-man?
Yes.
But that conclusion
was deduced based on circumstance.
You didn't actually witness
the murder itself.
- Pardon?
- When you and Do-kyung
escaped from the house...
Choi Jung-man was alive.
So if Mi-kyung really did
kill Jung-man...
You weren't actually there
to see it.
I suppose I'm still
a little emotional and shaken.
I must have
exaggerated a little bit.
I understand.
You must have been terrified.
Well, this is
a whole other story.
But listening to Eun-seo's story,
I think I get the gist of it.
Do-kyung thought
Mi-kyung and Eun-seo
were both Yoo Mi-kyung.
If that's the case,
then everything makes sense.
What should we do?
Yoo Mi-kyung is still gone.
Should we put out an APB?
Just... hang out here for a while.
Huh? What about you?
I'm going for a soak.
You are nothing.
You useless thing!
You think you're special?
You will never become a cop.
I'm a little broken up here...
I take medication.
Apparently she was diagnosed
with schizophrenia last year.
Oh, did I say it like that?
I suppose I'm still
a little emotional and shaken.
I must have
exaggerated a little bit.
She is not Do-kyung's real sister.
They're not related at all.
The killer isn't Do-kyung,
it's someone else.
It's not my sister's fault...
Yoo Mi-kyung.
Wouldn't it be Mi-kyung?
Useless vermin! Stay still!
Are you a pour-er or a dipper?
I'm a drinker.
Go ahead.
I'm going to take this call.
Okay.
Yes?
Yoo Do-kyung and Han Eun-seo.
Don't their stories
seem too clear cut?
Clear cut?
One's dead, two are injured.
But neither of them are at fault,
and Yoo Mi-kyung's the killer?
We haven't even seen
Yoo Mi-kyung anywhere.
You're right.
It does seem a little too easy.
- Let's go back to the beginning.
- Huh?
Go back to the beginning
and make it less dramatic.
Do you remember
Do-kyung's testimony?
Yeah,
that Han Eun-seo is her sister.
And Choi Jung-man is
her brother-in-law.
Right. Don't you think
those random details
obfuscate what really happened?
Let's ignore all of that
for a second.
How?
Eun-seo and her kidnapper
came to Do-kyung's house,
where she was living alone.
Do-kyung sensed something was off,
and helped Eun-seo escape.
In the process,
Han Eun-seo was stabbed and
Choi Jung-man was killed.
- What do you think?
- That makes sense too but...
In that case,
what is the difference between
that and Do-kyung's testimony?
It's completely different.
Can't you see the point
I'm trying to make?
Yoo Do-kyung may just be
completely sane.
Think about it.
Do-kyung drove all the way
to the hospital by herself.
A schizophrenic who can't
even tell apart their real sister.
Would they be able to do that?
Talk with Do-kyung.
Don't look at her
through colored lenses
or treat her like a sick patient.
Maybe we'll get something useful.
Isn't writing hard?
It is difficult.
But my sister helps me
so it's okay.
How exactly does
your sister help you?
She buys me ramyeon,
gets me water,
buys me toilet paper...
She makes sure I take my medicine.
And she helps me think.
How does she help you think?
To help me focus...
She closes the door for me.
Close the door?
Even holds it sometimes.
An hour...
Two hours...
Three hours...
Four hours...
Sis!
Five hours...
Seven hours...
(Please save me)
Eight hours...
Sis!
Sis! Please open the door!
Open the door!
Just once!
Open it just for a second.
Stay still! Useless vermin!
Sis!
Nine hours...
Ten hours...
In there,
you lose all sense of time.
Sis, I'm sorry! Sis!
Sis, open the door!
Sis, open the door!
Open the door!
(Murder Suspect Wanted)
I checked Do-kyung's bank account
activities for the past 5 years,
A total of 1.2 billion won
was withdrawn
over a total of 156 withdrawals.
132 have been at the ATM
in front of Mi-kyung's house.
Do-kyung had no idea
this was happening.
It looks like Mi-kyung was
using Do-kyung's money.
(Murder Suspect Wanted)
I'm going to go home now.
Don't you think it'd be better
to stay here?
There's probably no one home.
My sister will come.
Your sister still isn't
answering her phone.
If I wait long enough,
she'll come.
The killer always returns to
the scene of the crime.
In that case,
let us take you home.
I'd like to go alone.
I feel better that way.
Oh, I almost forgot!
Can I get your autograph?
You idiot!
Do-kyung,
you don't have to sign it.
Please?
If it's too many,
maybe just one book?
I've never met a writer before!
Hey!
Then just one...
Thank you so much!
(The Woman in the White Car)
Picked it yourself!
Is that one your favorite?
Yes.
It's an honor!
Are you sure
you'll be okay by yourself?
Yes.
Thank you for everything.
We should look in on her
from time to time.
Aren't you heading out?
Yeah, soon.
This book is really depressing.
The Woman in the White Car?
Yeah, apparently the protagonist
commits suicide at the end.
Do you want to borrow it?
Aren't you going to read it?
The summary is good enough for me.
Going straight home right?
Yeah. Where are you going?
I'm going to the hospital
to have another chat.
Where are the car keys?
You're always like this.
It's because you always lose
your keys everywhere
that I put them right
here?
This is driving me crazy.
Where did she go?
Could it be the hospital?
It must be the hospital.
Let's go to the hospital.
Hey, that book
how did you say it ends?
The protagonist commits suicide...
How?
They drive off a cliff...
(Caution)
Go check the hospital!
Where are you going?
Picked it yourself!
Is that one your favorite?
Yes.
Are you sure
you'll be okay by yourself?
Yes.
Do-kyung!
My sister is calling me.
Wait! Wait.
Let's talk for a bit.
She keeps calling me.
To come to her.
Don't listen to your sister.
She's done nothing but harm you.
No.
I'm the problem.
She always said
she was looking out for me.
But I'm broken.
And I became useless.
That old man at the motel!
He's my father.
A man who would get drunk,
stick his daughter's face into
a tub of water and torture her.
Do you know what he used to
say to me all the time?
That I was useless.
That...
Do you think he said that
for my benefit?
Your sister and my father
are the same.
People like that are just...
bad people.
Just because they're family,
doesn't mean you need to
shut up and take it.
We can't be dragged down
by the bad things
that bad people say to us.
Please.
On the corpses of
Yoo Mi-kyung and Choi Jung-man,
we found significant traces of
their blood on each other.
Near the crash site,
we also found a small notebook
with numbers written inside.
When we went to the corresponding
geographical coordinates,
I found it!
I found it! Over here!
We were able to locate the body of
Jung Jun-seo, a missing person.
Jung Jun-seo was the victim of
abduction committed by
Choi Jung-man.
He blamed the victim
for his incarceration.
When he was released,
he got his revenge
by killing her and
hiding her body.
Choi Jung-man also tried to
abduct and kill
what was investigating
what had happened to her sister.
But his plans were thwarted,
and he was killed by
his accomplice Yoo Mi-kyung,
who also fell to her death
while fleeing from the scene.
When I was in middle school,
my parents got a divorce.
I stayed with my father,
and remained Han Eun-seo,
whereas Jun-seo,
who went with my mother
became Jung Jun-seo,
because of her new step-father.
I'll call you.
See you.
We said that we'd try to
see each other often
even though we now had
different names,
but it never worked out
the way we hoped.
I couldn't stop blaming myself
when I heard that
Jun-seo went missing.
That wasn't your fault.
He's the villain.
I'm still so mad at myself.
I was so
terrified of him.
If I had known that he was
the one that killed Jun-seo...
I wouldn't have been so weak.
But he's dead now
and you survived.
That means you won.
I won...?
I like the sound of that.
Father.
I'm transferring.
I'm going somewhere
so nice and far,
that you won't be
able to come find me.
Hey, you useless thing.
I raised you,
and now you betray me
because you're some big shot?
Let's get one thing straight.
The useless one is you, not me.
And who raised who?
I raised myself.
What... what are you saying?
You have to act like a parent
to be called a parent,
and even family has its limits.
You don't care about anything
but yourself,
so I refuse to try anymore.
I'm grateful to you
that I was born,
but let's never cross paths again.
Hey you!
Hey you!
Hey you! Come here!
(Funeral Hall)
You and I
we still have things to discuss,
don't we?
You know who she is, right?
You think you went to jail
because of her.
She's been missing
since last January,
less than a month from
when you were released.
What did you do to my sister?
I'm going to take off
the tape now,
and you will tell me what you did
to my sister and where she is.
If you give me
any irrelevant nonsense,
I'm going to start pulling.
Humans have at least 28 teeth,
so we're going to have some fun
with this until number 28.
If that doesn't work,
let's come up
with something later.
It wasn't me!
Wait!
(Musang-my eon)
Hello?
Who are you?
That's for me to ask.
Aren't you the one who broke
into a stranger's home?
Oh, right. I'm sorry.
Look...
I was in a car accident nearby...
I saw.
Did you call your insurance?
I'm just going to let it slide.
It wasn't even a big accident.
About that
would you have a tire repair kit
by any chance?
Yes.
You do?
That's good news.
Could I borrow it?
I don't see why not. But...
I need a favor too.
A favor?
Take me with you.
Excuse me?
When you leave here
take me with you.
I don't think I can do that,
I have some urgent business.
What business?
I'm on a business trip.
I have a meeting with a client.
I see.
So then
is the man in the trunk
attending the meeting too?
Don't be hasty.
You can't do anything
with those hands.
Driving's going to be very risky.
If you slip up,
he's going to
turn it around on you.
So me coming with you,
isn't a bad deal for you either.
Whatever your plan is,
I won't get in your way.
What's it going to be?
The car is ready, let's leave
when we finish eating.
We didn't have to eat.
I figured you hadn't
eaten all day.
Why aren't you
asking any questions?
If I ask
then I have to answer.
You have secrets bigger than
having a man locked up
in your trunk?
Did you kill someone?
There were two sets of cutlery
but one person, so...
I assumed the worst.
One's mine and one's my sister's
but she doesn't live here.
Any more questions?
Is there anything else that
you spied with your little eye?
The front door was locked
from the outside.
Like a prison.
It is a prison.
My sister branded me as insane,
and locked me in here.
Your sister?
Why?
Money.
My little sister.
She's trying to take
everything I have.
All the money I made,
and the inheritance
our parents left us.
Are you sure
you're not actually ill?
I saw your room.
It would drive
even the most sane person crazy.
If it seemed that way,
it's a success.
I'm trying to seem a little crazy.
That way, my sister will
let her guard down,
and then...
I can escape.
I see.
Do you
believe me?
I'm about to kill someone
for my own sister.
If there's a sister like me,
I guess there could be
sisters like yours.
And to be honest,
whether you're telling
the truth or not,
it's none of my business.
I like that
you're straightforward.
You didn't easily suspect me
or pity me.
Not sure if I should thank you.
Let's not do that.
Our lives are complicated
enough already.
Becoming close would
just be a nuisance.
It's her.
Who are you?
Sis, she...
You go inside.
Hi, excuse me.
I was passing through but
got lost and crashed my car.
So she let me stay here
for a little while.
It's late, so if you're done,
you should be on your way.
I wasn't able to fix the car yet.
So I'd like to stay the night.
Excuse me?
I can't call someone out here
in the middle of the night.
You understand, right?
Where are you going with my sister
in the middle of the night?
You stupid wench.
Still haven't learned your lesson
and you dare to run away again?
Run away?
Stop it!
What the...
That's why, you don't meddle
in other families' businesses.
Hey!
Who the hell are you?
Do you want to die?
No! We have to take him with us!
Let's just go! Just go!
No!
No!
Wake up!
Where did you bury my sister?
Wake up!
Did he say something
before he died?
Did you hear anything?
Did you hear anything at all?
I knew it would
eventually come to this.
Either you kill me,
or I kill you.
For us, the end has to be
one or the other.
Get up, we have to clean up here.
Are you just going
to stay like this?
It doesn't matter anymore.
That jerk is dead.
My little sister,
buried in the mountains...
Now I'll never find her.
So?
Do you want to go to jail
holding hands?
I don't care.
What if I told you
that I know where
your sister is buried?
Just do as I say.
Then I'll tell you,
where your sister is buried.
How do you know that?
I'll tell you
everything later.
So, starting now,
pay very close attention
and remember
what I'm about to tell you.
Memorize it.
And you have to tell the police
exactly what I told you.
Can you do that?
It's probably safer this way.
I'll count to 3.
Just do it.
I did everything
you told me to do.
Now it's your turn
to keep your promise.
How did you know
where my sister was buried?
A year ago,
a car drove by the house.
Our land is private property.
So that almost never happened.
I thought it was rare chance,
so I broke the window,
and ran after the car
to ask for help.
That's when I saw a man
burying a body.
Back then,
I had no choice but to let him go.
I didn't know until then,
that the man inside the trunk
was the man I saw that night.
I wasn't deliberately
keeping that from you.
Please believe me.
I see.
Is that it?
You don't have
anything more to say?
I do.
Thank you.
For saving me.
I was just saving myself.
If you're going to thank someone,
thank the nail that
poked a hole in the tire.
I'll be on my way.
Goodbye.
(Bus Terminal)
(The Woman in the White Car)
Attention, passengers.
The bus bound for Seoul at 12 p.m,
is about to depart.
I'm sorry.
Is that one your favorite?
Yes.
This book is really depressing.
The protagonist commits suicide
at the end.
They drive off a cliff.
What is that?
Did it fall out of the car?
My sister is calling me.
She keeps calling me.
Do-kyung!
I found it!
If I had known that he was the one
that killed Jun-seo...
I wouldn't have been so weak.
You saw who killed Choi Jung-man?
Yes.
The woman was Yoo Mi-kyung.
I won...?
I like the sound of that.
Can't you see the point
I'm trying to make?
Yoo Do-kyung may just be
completely sane.
(Lee Yong-jae)
Okay, got it.
The ambulance and reinforcements
are on their way.
So just hang tight.
Do you think someone like me
can ever lead a decent life?
Of course.
Why would you ask
such an obvious question?
(Haneul Park Hue Park)
Thank you.
For saving me.
I was just saving myself.
If you're going to thank someone,
thank the nail that
poked a hole in the tire.
If I wait long enough,
she'll come.
The killer always returns to
the scene of the crime.
Do you think someone like me
can ever lead a decent life?
Of course.
Why would you ask
such an obvious question?
Take it from someone
who's been through it.
You can trust me.
(Directed by Christine Ko)
(Seolwon Hospital)
Sis, wake up!
Sis!
Hel... Help me!
Please help!
Good morning, this is Ha-yeon
with your morning show!
They say winter is a season
for preparation,
which means,
there are a lot of things
you need to be award of.
Please help!
Oh gosh!
(The Woman in the White Car)
Got a call from Seolwon Hospital.
Two sisters came in.
Apparently the younger one
seemed really beaten up.
The older one has fractures
on both her hands,
badly bruised legs,
and was stabbed in the abdomen
so she's in surgery.
Maybe they exchanged blows,
then pulled a knife on each other?
Seems intense for a family fight.
It's intense because it's family.
Next patient, please come in.
(Intensive Care Unit)
Excuse me...
Hi, how is everything here?
What time did she
come to the hospital?
I think around 7 a.m.?
7 a.m...
Hi there.
Could you tell me your name?
It's Woo Do-kyung.
Ms. Woo Do-kyung.
Are you doing okay?
It seems like she needs to be
treated as well.
Yes, but she still seems to be
in shock.
She's been refusing treatment,
and just sitting there,
staring at the doors.
Is it because you're worried
about your sister?
She'll be all right.
Take if from someone
who's been through it.
You can trust me.
(Seolwon Hospital)
All one. You should rest.
Here, this will warm you up.
Thank you.
Ms. Woo Do-kyung.
Do you feel a little calmer now?
- Yoo Do-kyung.
- Pardon?
It's Yoo Do-kyung,
not Woo Do-kyung.
Oh, okay. Yoo Do-kyung.
I'm Sergeant Kim Hyun-ju
from Musang Police Station.
I'm going to ask you
a few questions,
do you think you can answer
them for me?
Yes.
Can I get your birth date
and occupation, please?
October 28th, 1989.
I'm...
A writer.
Oh, you're a writer!
And your address?
Musang-my eon, Samsan-ri 20-3.
Is that where you were injured?
At home?
Yes.
What about your sister's name
and birth date?
Name Yoo Mi-kyung,
born March 6th, 1987.
Were there any other family
members with you at home?
Maybe your parents?
Our parents passed away
5 years ago.
So it was just the two of you,
you and your sister?
No.
There was one other person.
Who was it?
My future brother-in-law.
Sis!
Do-kyung!
Who is this?
Me?
I'm the man who's going to be
your brother-in-law.
Nice to meet you.
I've heard a lot about you.
He
was an unsettling presence,
from the beginning.
But my sister had chosen him,
and I wanted to be happy for her.
It's not much but...
hope you like it.
You made noodles for us?
Wow, that's sweet of you.
Hey, sis.
Are you messing with me right now?
Excuse me?
Do you know how gruelling it was
to drive this far out?
A full-on feast would
barely satisfy me,
let alone some goddamn
measly noodles!
And then...
He started to yell and get angry.
Just like that, all of a sudden?
Yes.
Then what happened?
You must have been startled.
He's a little rough
around the edges,
but he's not a bad guy.
How did you two meet?
Just
it was kind of like
a car accident.
He hit you with his car?
Why are you laughing?
I'm being serious...
That's why it's funny!
Be quiet!
It must have
slipped out of my hands.
She pretended
everything was okay,
but I could tell.
That she wasn't okay
with him either.
Then, the night came.
Please!
Jung-man!
Hey! Get up!
Please no!
Answer me, goddamn it!
Please? Please what?
Sis!
You know couples fight
all the time right?
It's nothing,
so just go back to bed.
Hey!
Where do you think
you're going, huh?
Hey!
No!
Sis!
You still don't get it, do you?
Stop it!
You little...
I told you to go back to bed!
Why won't you do as you're told?
Stop it, Jung-man!
Do you think I'm an idiot too?
You wenches...
Today
I'm going to teach
you both a lesson!
Wow...
That must have been
quite frightening.
But
your sister used
a rock to hit him?
Yes.
How is that possible?
You told me both her hands
were broken.
Well, I...
I don't quite remember...
And the car was
in really bad shape too.
Did you get in an accident
on your way here?
I'm not sure.
You're not sure?
I'm still a little confused...
Do you remember
your brother-in-law's name?
Stop it, Jung-man!
Something...
Jung-man.
Jung-man.
It's not my sister's fault!
Hyung-nim.
Did you finish getting
her statement?
Yeah, She says
her brother-in-law did it.
- Her brother-in-law?
- Yep.
The brother-in-law beat
Do-kyung, stabbed her sister,
and the sisters barely escaped.
Let's go get this Jung-man first.
Wait a second.
Is that what Do-kyung said?
- That they're sisters?
- Why?
Apparently she's not her sister.
What?
The stabbed woman in surgery,
is not Do-kyung's real sister.
They're not related at all.
Have a look.
Here.
This nurse with the bob haircut
is her real sister.
The name's Yoo Mi-kyung.
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
Everyone who's worked
here for a while
seemed to remember her.
So who's the woman in surgery?
No one knows.
She didn't have any ID on her,
and they've never seen her before.
Do-kyung.
The woman in surgery right now,
what's her name?
Yoo Mi-kyung.
That's your sister's name.
Who is the woman that
you brought to the hospital?
Yoo Mi-kyung, my sister.
Here, look at this.
Who is this?
My sister, Mi-kyung.
Then what about her?
Who is she?
My sister...?
No, look,
this is a different person.
Do-kyung.
Have you been drinking?
I'm sorry... I...
I take medication.
You take what?
Medication...
I'm a little broken up here...
They say she was diagnosed
with schizophrenia last year.
Help! She's trying to kill me!
You tell her!!
Hurry up and tell her!
Before that, she was being
treated for severe depression.
They said her sister quit her job
to take care of her full-time.
They were in and out of
the hospital until last year,
but recently it became
too much for them,
and she left Do-kyung at home.
So that's what happened.
Have you tried calling the sister?
Yeah, she's not picking up.
The other woman,
who could she be?
Not her real sister but,
maybe someone she's close to?
That's probably why
she brought her fiance with her.
Something's off.
From what she told me,
that guy Jung-man sounded like
a real piece of work.
Why would she introduce someone
like him to a sick person?
What if Do-kyung is
mixing things up?
Mixing what up?
Think about it,
she's schizophrenic.
Sis...
Do-kyung thought
Jung-man was unsettling, but
that might be because
she wasn't entirely
in her right mind.
Do-kyung!
In reality, he could have been
a normal guy.
Then what about the stabbing?
That...
Oh, I got it!
It was...
- Do-kyung!
- What?
Have you seen 'Psycho'?
No!
Do-kyung thinks he stabbed
her sister,
but really...
She did it herself!
That's enough!
You have arrived
at your destination.
What? This is it?
It's... different from
what I imagined.
What brings you here?
We're from the Musang station.
This is Musang-my eon.
Samsan-ri 20-3, right?
Yes, that's right.
Is there a problem?
We were called in on a case.
A resident may have been
stabbed here.
What?
Do you recognize this woman?
I don't think so.
I haven't seen her before.
Then, how about her?
Oh, she's in Unit 1
in building 103!
She's the one who's been hurt?
No, the one injured is
actually her sister.
Could I have a look at
the security footage?
Oh, there she is!
Here's the list of residents.
Yoo Mi-kyung lives
by herself in Unit 1.
No one is listed
to be living with her.
Yes, that's right.
Mi-kyung, when did she leave
the house yesterday?
Around 4 p.m.
She hasn't been back since then.
No visitors either.
Maybe Do-kyung really did
make everything up!
She's a mental patient!
I knew we shouldn't have
believed a sick person.
Don't believe everything
someone tells you
because they seem normal.
And don't ignore everything
someone tells you
just because they're ill.
Yes sir.
One thing's for sure,
this isn't the crime scene.
And it's not where
Do-kyung lives either.
But Do-kyung's sister...
She supposedly quit her job
to take care of Do-kyung,
and yet she lives in
this fancy place by herself?
That's a good point.
(Seolwon Hospital)
I have to go!
Please let me go!
Please let me in!
What's the matter?
What's going on here?
The stabbing patient just got
out of surgery and needs to rest,
but she keeps insisting that
she be let inside.
I need to make sure
my sister is okay!
I told you,
she's not your actual sister!
We all understand that,
but maybe she'll calm down
once you let her see her
for a minute?
We considered it
but she's just being too erratic.
When we opened the door,
she just bolted towards her
and we had a hard time
separating them.
Do-kyung!
Please let me
see my sister just once.
Sis, are you okay? Sis!
Do-kyung!
Your sister needs to rest.
If you keep acting like this,
she'll get worse.
Let's not do this here,
come with us.
If you come with us and
calm down a bit,
I'm sure your sister will
come around soon.
Okay?
Your sister still isn't
answering her phone.
But we left messages for her,
I'm sure she'll get
back to us soon.
Okay.
Anyway,
we went to the address
you gave us.
It turns out
that's Mi-kyung's house.
You two live separately, right?
Yes.
Do you know the address
of your house?
The house that your sister and
her fiance visited?
Is it close to
your sister's house?
It's close to the mountains.
Mountains?
So, there are mountains nearby.
What else is around it?
There's nothing else.
Do-kyung, does your sister
come see you often?
Sometimes.
How many times a week?
I'm not sure.
Not often, she's very busy.
You little crap, how dare you
look at me that way!
Do you know who I am?
I don't know who you are
but you need to let us through!
Shut up!
There he goes again.
Good luck.
Thanks.
Should we go to the station
right next door?
The police?
Don't bring up the police!
He's really not listening at all.
The goddamn police!
Do you know who you're talking to?
Lower your eyes, you little...!
The bottle...
Let go!
Where the hell have you been?
Why are you just now
showing your face?
Just let go of this.
If you so much as touch
anyone with this,
you'll be charged with assault.
Let go! Let go of me!
Useless...!
Do you not care if I live or die
on the goddamn street?
Give me the bottle.
Aren't you going to give it back?
Give it back. Hurry up.
Where are you going?
Give me back the bottle!
Give it back!
It's me.
She's from Samsan-ri,
but something happened there
so she can't go back home.
Anyway, it's a long story.
Just charge me for her room.
She's been through a lot,
so don't bother her.
All right, I got it!
If you need anything,
just dial 0 on the phone.
The nice lady at the front
will answer.
And let me give you my number.
Your cell phone?
I don't know where it is.
Then I'll just write it down
for you.
Oh, and your car keys.
That is not my car.
Please take care of it
for me, detective.
Oh, I'm not a detective...
Okay, I'll hold on to it.
Rest well!
Sis, wake up.
(The Mobility Kit)
(Musang-my eon)
Yeah, the car is registered to
a Choi Jung-man.
(Driver Registration)
Check his record for any priors.
Okay, hold on a second.
(Police Records)
(Kidnapping / Assault)
Hyun-ju!
He's been arrested for
kidnapping before!
4 years ago, when his girlfriend.
Jung Jun-seo broke up with him,
he kidnapped her,
kept her locked in his house
for two days and assaulted her.
He served 3 years in prison
and was released last year.
Hold on.
Maybe the woman in the hospital
is Jung Jun-seo?
I already checked,
but it's not her.
That woman in the hospital...
Is it too much to think she was
kidnapped too,
like Jung Jun-seo?
It's a reasonable assumption.
But if she was kidnapped too,
why did Jung-man take her to
Do-kyung's house?
How did you two meet?
It was kind of like
a car accident.
A car accident.
Huh?
That's what Do-kyung said.
That her sister and her fiance
met like a car accident.
Can we take her word for it?
A schizophrenic?
Though we can't believe everything
a schizophrenic tells us,
based on keywords that
she remembers,
we can still deduce
the conversation.
There was a tire repair kit
in the back seat.
Usually people would keep that
in the trunk,
but because he had the victim
locked in the back,
maybe he had to move it.
Choi Jung-man abducted the victim,
locked her in the trunk,
Oh! And the front bumper was
crushed in as well.
Somewhere along the way
he crashes into something.
What? Oh!
If it wasn't a big deal,
he would've patched things up
and carried on.
But since he wasn't
able to do that,
maybe Choi Jung-man injured
in the crash.
He probably couldn't call
insurance or an ambulance.
Because in the trunk
was the woman he had abducted.
The map says it's close by
but I don't see a thing.
No one would know
if something happened here.
That over there,
isn't that a house?
You're right!
Pull over right here.
Mr. Choi Jung-man, are you there?
This is the police!
What kind of a room is this?
(The Woman in the White Car)
(The man buried the body
in the mountains)
(Because, because,
because, because)
(The woman got in the white car)
Hyun-ju.
Did you know
Do-kyung was a writer?
She did mention it.
She wasn't just an average writer.
She was hailed as a prodigy!
When she was 15,
she won the Grand Prize
in some competition.
She's already published
more than 10 books.
So how did she end up like this?
Her parents passed away suddenly
in an accident,
and apparently,
she was very traumatized.
She had a severe panic attack
at a book signing.
And after that,
it says she's just been at home,
writing and being treated.
Let's see.
Choi Jung-man probably came
through here too.
But wait,
why would he bring
the victim with him
and not keep her
locked in the car?
He probably wanted to
avoid suspicion.
A male stranger asking for help,
or a couple asking for help.
Which would seem less suspicious?
Don't move.
But if the victim courageously
made a move,
his cover would be blown.
Would he have risked that?
He probably felt like
he had control over the situation.
He must have checked to see that
a woman lived here alone.
So if anything went wrong,
he knew he could overpower
the victim and Do-kyung.
But even if she was scared of him,
do you really think
she would have stayed still?
It might just be her
last chance to escape.
She may have
mustered up the courage.
Hel...
But, I'm sure it was no use.
- Help!
- Sis!
Who is this?
My future brother-in-law perhaps?
Oh, yeah. Nice to meet you.
Come on in!
I made this as a way of
saying congratulations.
Noodles!
Please, eat!
When it became her
how sick Do-kyung was,
Choi Jung-man probably let loose.
Look at me,
don't put your head down!
Answer me!
She's still not picking up?
Yeah, no answer.
So she just left her sick sister
stranded in some lone house.
I'm dying to know
what she's doing
and where she is.
Where are you going?
I'm going to take a look around.
We still don't have eyes on
the suspect at all!
Don't you think he would've
made a run for it by now?
He probably froze to death
if he was hiding out here.
He could have
left behind evidence.
Why do you live like this?
What did you just say?
I phrased that badly,
but what I'm trying to say is,
why are you stuck in
a small town like this?
Have you committed yourself
to be buried here?
If I go, who's going to
take care of the old man?
Will you do it?
Why me?
Exactly.
So I have to stay and
take care of him.
No one gives out awards for that.
I just want you
to live your best life.
It's your life!
Don't let him decide for you.
Live how you want to live...
There are signs
of violent assault.
Fractures all over.
Cause of death?
- What did they say?
- They'll know after autopsy.
It could be cerebral haemorrhaging
from the skull fracture,
or cardiac arrest caused
by hypothermia.
What did the detectives say?
Are they going to take over?
They're busy with
the illegal gambling case.
They want us to
do the best we can.
Okay, let's talk later.
Hey you, Kim Hyun-ju!
Do-kyung, open the door!
Do-kyung!
Do-kyung!
(ICU Restricted Area)
Wake up.
Wake up.
Eun-seo!
What is it?
Do-kyung, please step outside.
You're under arrest for
the murder of Choi Jung-man.
You have the right
to remain silent.
You have the right to be
represented by a lawyer.
Anything you say can be used
against you in a court of law.
Wait, I... I killed someone?
The man you said was
your brother-in-law.
Right now,
he's lying in the morgue.
When we found him,
his hands and feet
were bound by tape.
There wasn't a single part of
his body that was intact.
Someone tied him up and
beat him senseless.
But you
you already knew that, didn't you?
That Choi Jung-man is dead.
You said so yourself.
It's not my sister's fault!
"It's not my sister's fault!"
A woman who was stabbed...
What could she
possibly have done wrong?
You already knew.
From the minute
you left the house,
That Choi Jung-man
was already dead.
It's not my sister's fault!
You're right.
This woman here
is totally innocent.
Both her hands are broken.
You can't pick up anything
with those hands,
let alone a rock.
So in conclusion,
the person who killed
Choi Jung-man is...
Yoo Do-kyung.
It was you.
What are you doing?
Please leave right now!
Yes, we're leaving.
Wait a minute!
I have something to say
to my sister!
Please wait!
Sis! No! No!
Look here!
That woman is not your sister!
Please wake her up just this once
I need to talk to her.
No! Please!
Where are you taking me?
No! Sis! Sis!
I'll go get the attending!
No! No!
Doctor!
Sis!
Sis!
I didn't kill him!
My sister will tell you!
Please let me talk to my sister!
Sis!
Doctor!
Sis!
- Charge 200.
- Clear.
Charge 250, shock!
Sis!
Sis!
Can you hear us?
Please call the police.
I saw who did it.
I'm Sergeant Kim Hyun-ju
from Musang Police Station.
You saw who killed Choi Jung-man?
Yes.
The killer isn't Do-kyung,
but someone else.
So what really happened?
I was just heading back home
from the grocery store.
Someone attacked me
from behind with a taser.
I fainted but when I woke up,
I was in the trunk of a car.
And just when I sensed that
my life had taken
a very wrong turn,
there was a crash.
I don't know how much time passed.
When I woke up again,
she was there.
You're awake.
How are you feeling?
The woman was...
Yoo Mi-kyung.
This is Do-kyung's real sister.
Name's Yoo Mi-Kyung.
You're saying Yoo Mi-kyung
was at the scene?
You must be in such shock.
I saw that there had been
a car crash.
So I brought you here.
An ambulance is on the way.
What about the other person
in the car?
Who?
You were alone when I saw you.
Hey, Could you call the police?
I think I've been kidnapped...
Kidnapped?
Mi-kyung!
Don't tease her so much.
She might cry.
Did you fix the car?
Yeah. Pretty much.
Pretty much?
It should be completely fixed.
Yeah, I'll get it done my way.
Your way?
Your stupid way is
what got you into this mess.
Thank god it was
right near the house,
what would've happened
if you crashed somewhere else?
Just leave me alone
when I'm eating, will you?
Leave you alone?
A jerk like you
doesn't deserve to eat.
What are you doing?
What am I doing? How can you
eat at a time like this?
I was going to fix it
after dinner!
Fix it first then eat!
Goddamn it!
What are you going
to do with her?
Why can't I just eat first?
What are you doing?
What's going on?
I think her hands are making
her uncomfortable.
She's trying to get them free.
Hey you.
Do you want me to
kill you right now?
Don't yell like an idiot.
We just have to show, not tell.
So the hands were
Yoo Mi-kyung's work...
But how did you run away
with injured hands?
Hold on a second.
You're saying Do-kyung was
in the bathroom until then?
For the whole day?
Yes, isn't that strange?
For a minute, I thought
I was seeing things too.
May I continue?
Dammit, where did she go?
Damn, she got away!
She's injured
so she can't have gone far.
How do you know
if she ran away
an hour ago or two?
How the hell would you know?
Wait, how did you get out?
You, come here.
Did you let her go?
Who are you?
Dammit, not this crap again!
Hey, stop it!
Get off of me!
I didn't like you from the start.
I'm going to teach you
a proper lesson today.
This is all your fault!
It's your fault!!
You idiot!
Why is it my sister's fault?
It's all because of you!
You stupid piece of crap!
My life wouldn't be this messed up
if I didn't met you at all!
Dammit!
That woman...
I couldn't believe what she said
when she had just killed someone.
I knew it would
eventually come to this.
Either that jerk kills me,
or I kill him.
For us, the end has to be
one or the other.
Then she went on to yell
at a hysterical Do-kyung.
It's better that
he died instead of me.
So this worked out well.
Right?
Stop crying!
You'd be dead too
if it weren't for me.
It's not my fault,
do you understand?
It's not your fault!
It's not my fault.
I'm going to go find the girl
who ran away.
Stay inside since it's cold.
Sis?
Dammit, so that's where you were.
No!
Get up!
Sis?
Wake up!
Hang on just a little longer!
Sis?
At some point, I fainted.
When I woke up,
I was here in this room.
Let me double-check a few things.
Choi Jung-man was found dead
with his hands and feet
taped together.
Did you happen to see who did it?
No.
But he wasn't tied up
when Do-kyung and I
left the house.
Wouldn't it be Mi-kyung?
So you're saying Yoo Mi-kyung
killed Choi Jung-man?
Yes.
But that conclusion
was deduced based on circumstance.
You didn't actually witness
the murder itself.
- Pardon?
- When you and Do-kyung
escaped from the house...
Choi Jung-man was alive.
So if Mi-kyung really did
kill Jung-man...
You weren't actually there
to see it.
I suppose I'm still
a little emotional and shaken.
I must have
exaggerated a little bit.
I understand.
You must have been terrified.
Well, this is
a whole other story.
But listening to Eun-seo's story,
I think I get the gist of it.
Do-kyung thought
Mi-kyung and Eun-seo
were both Yoo Mi-kyung.
If that's the case,
then everything makes sense.
What should we do?
Yoo Mi-kyung is still gone.
Should we put out an APB?
Just... hang out here for a while.
Huh? What about you?
I'm going for a soak.
You are nothing.
You useless thing!
You think you're special?
You will never become a cop.
I'm a little broken up here...
I take medication.
Apparently she was diagnosed
with schizophrenia last year.
Oh, did I say it like that?
I suppose I'm still
a little emotional and shaken.
I must have
exaggerated a little bit.
She is not Do-kyung's real sister.
They're not related at all.
The killer isn't Do-kyung,
it's someone else.
It's not my sister's fault...
Yoo Mi-kyung.
Wouldn't it be Mi-kyung?
Useless vermin! Stay still!
Are you a pour-er or a dipper?
I'm a drinker.
Go ahead.
I'm going to take this call.
Okay.
Yes?
Yoo Do-kyung and Han Eun-seo.
Don't their stories
seem too clear cut?
Clear cut?
One's dead, two are injured.
But neither of them are at fault,
and Yoo Mi-kyung's the killer?
We haven't even seen
Yoo Mi-kyung anywhere.
You're right.
It does seem a little too easy.
- Let's go back to the beginning.
- Huh?
Go back to the beginning
and make it less dramatic.
Do you remember
Do-kyung's testimony?
Yeah,
that Han Eun-seo is her sister.
And Choi Jung-man is
her brother-in-law.
Right. Don't you think
those random details
obfuscate what really happened?
Let's ignore all of that
for a second.
How?
Eun-seo and her kidnapper
came to Do-kyung's house,
where she was living alone.
Do-kyung sensed something was off,
and helped Eun-seo escape.
In the process,
Han Eun-seo was stabbed and
Choi Jung-man was killed.
- What do you think?
- That makes sense too but...
In that case,
what is the difference between
that and Do-kyung's testimony?
It's completely different.
Can't you see the point
I'm trying to make?
Yoo Do-kyung may just be
completely sane.
Think about it.
Do-kyung drove all the way
to the hospital by herself.
A schizophrenic who can't
even tell apart their real sister.
Would they be able to do that?
Talk with Do-kyung.
Don't look at her
through colored lenses
or treat her like a sick patient.
Maybe we'll get something useful.
Isn't writing hard?
It is difficult.
But my sister helps me
so it's okay.
How exactly does
your sister help you?
She buys me ramyeon,
gets me water,
buys me toilet paper...
She makes sure I take my medicine.
And she helps me think.
How does she help you think?
To help me focus...
She closes the door for me.
Close the door?
Even holds it sometimes.
An hour...
Two hours...
Three hours...
Four hours...
Sis!
Five hours...
Seven hours...
(Please save me)
Eight hours...
Sis!
Sis! Please open the door!
Open the door!
Just once!
Open it just for a second.
Stay still! Useless vermin!
Sis!
Nine hours...
Ten hours...
In there,
you lose all sense of time.
Sis, I'm sorry! Sis!
Sis, open the door!
Sis, open the door!
Open the door!
(Murder Suspect Wanted)
I checked Do-kyung's bank account
activities for the past 5 years,
A total of 1.2 billion won
was withdrawn
over a total of 156 withdrawals.
132 have been at the ATM
in front of Mi-kyung's house.
Do-kyung had no idea
this was happening.
It looks like Mi-kyung was
using Do-kyung's money.
(Murder Suspect Wanted)
I'm going to go home now.
Don't you think it'd be better
to stay here?
There's probably no one home.
My sister will come.
Your sister still isn't
answering her phone.
If I wait long enough,
she'll come.
The killer always returns to
the scene of the crime.
In that case,
let us take you home.
I'd like to go alone.
I feel better that way.
Oh, I almost forgot!
Can I get your autograph?
You idiot!
Do-kyung,
you don't have to sign it.
Please?
If it's too many,
maybe just one book?
I've never met a writer before!
Hey!
Then just one...
Thank you so much!
(The Woman in the White Car)
Picked it yourself!
Is that one your favorite?
Yes.
It's an honor!
Are you sure
you'll be okay by yourself?
Yes.
Thank you for everything.
We should look in on her
from time to time.
Aren't you heading out?
Yeah, soon.
This book is really depressing.
The Woman in the White Car?
Yeah, apparently the protagonist
commits suicide at the end.
Do you want to borrow it?
Aren't you going to read it?
The summary is good enough for me.
Going straight home right?
Yeah. Where are you going?
I'm going to the hospital
to have another chat.
Where are the car keys?
You're always like this.
It's because you always lose
your keys everywhere
that I put them right
here?
This is driving me crazy.
Where did she go?
Could it be the hospital?
It must be the hospital.
Let's go to the hospital.
Hey, that book
how did you say it ends?
The protagonist commits suicide...
How?
They drive off a cliff...
(Caution)
Go check the hospital!
Where are you going?
Picked it yourself!
Is that one your favorite?
Yes.
Are you sure
you'll be okay by yourself?
Yes.
Do-kyung!
My sister is calling me.
Wait! Wait.
Let's talk for a bit.
She keeps calling me.
To come to her.
Don't listen to your sister.
She's done nothing but harm you.
No.
I'm the problem.
She always said
she was looking out for me.
But I'm broken.
And I became useless.
That old man at the motel!
He's my father.
A man who would get drunk,
stick his daughter's face into
a tub of water and torture her.
Do you know what he used to
say to me all the time?
That I was useless.
That...
Do you think he said that
for my benefit?
Your sister and my father
are the same.
People like that are just...
bad people.
Just because they're family,
doesn't mean you need to
shut up and take it.
We can't be dragged down
by the bad things
that bad people say to us.
Please.
On the corpses of
Yoo Mi-kyung and Choi Jung-man,
we found significant traces of
their blood on each other.
Near the crash site,
we also found a small notebook
with numbers written inside.
When we went to the corresponding
geographical coordinates,
I found it!
I found it! Over here!
We were able to locate the body of
Jung Jun-seo, a missing person.
Jung Jun-seo was the victim of
abduction committed by
Choi Jung-man.
He blamed the victim
for his incarceration.
When he was released,
he got his revenge
by killing her and
hiding her body.
Choi Jung-man also tried to
abduct and kill
what was investigating
what had happened to her sister.
But his plans were thwarted,
and he was killed by
his accomplice Yoo Mi-kyung,
who also fell to her death
while fleeing from the scene.
When I was in middle school,
my parents got a divorce.
I stayed with my father,
and remained Han Eun-seo,
whereas Jun-seo,
who went with my mother
became Jung Jun-seo,
because of her new step-father.
I'll call you.
See you.
We said that we'd try to
see each other often
even though we now had
different names,
but it never worked out
the way we hoped.
I couldn't stop blaming myself
when I heard that
Jun-seo went missing.
That wasn't your fault.
He's the villain.
I'm still so mad at myself.
I was so
terrified of him.
If I had known that he was
the one that killed Jun-seo...
I wouldn't have been so weak.
But he's dead now
and you survived.
That means you won.
I won...?
I like the sound of that.
Father.
I'm transferring.
I'm going somewhere
so nice and far,
that you won't be
able to come find me.
Hey, you useless thing.
I raised you,
and now you betray me
because you're some big shot?
Let's get one thing straight.
The useless one is you, not me.
And who raised who?
I raised myself.
What... what are you saying?
You have to act like a parent
to be called a parent,
and even family has its limits.
You don't care about anything
but yourself,
so I refuse to try anymore.
I'm grateful to you
that I was born,
but let's never cross paths again.
Hey you!
Hey you!
Hey you! Come here!
(Funeral Hall)
You and I
we still have things to discuss,
don't we?
You know who she is, right?
You think you went to jail
because of her.
She's been missing
since last January,
less than a month from
when you were released.
What did you do to my sister?
I'm going to take off
the tape now,
and you will tell me what you did
to my sister and where she is.
If you give me
any irrelevant nonsense,
I'm going to start pulling.
Humans have at least 28 teeth,
so we're going to have some fun
with this until number 28.
If that doesn't work,
let's come up
with something later.
It wasn't me!
Wait!
(Musang-my eon)
Hello?
Who are you?
That's for me to ask.
Aren't you the one who broke
into a stranger's home?
Oh, right. I'm sorry.
Look...
I was in a car accident nearby...
I saw.
Did you call your insurance?
I'm just going to let it slide.
It wasn't even a big accident.
About that
would you have a tire repair kit
by any chance?
Yes.
You do?
That's good news.
Could I borrow it?
I don't see why not. But...
I need a favor too.
A favor?
Take me with you.
Excuse me?
When you leave here
take me with you.
I don't think I can do that,
I have some urgent business.
What business?
I'm on a business trip.
I have a meeting with a client.
I see.
So then
is the man in the trunk
attending the meeting too?
Don't be hasty.
You can't do anything
with those hands.
Driving's going to be very risky.
If you slip up,
he's going to
turn it around on you.
So me coming with you,
isn't a bad deal for you either.
Whatever your plan is,
I won't get in your way.
What's it going to be?
The car is ready, let's leave
when we finish eating.
We didn't have to eat.
I figured you hadn't
eaten all day.
Why aren't you
asking any questions?
If I ask
then I have to answer.
You have secrets bigger than
having a man locked up
in your trunk?
Did you kill someone?
There were two sets of cutlery
but one person, so...
I assumed the worst.
One's mine and one's my sister's
but she doesn't live here.
Any more questions?
Is there anything else that
you spied with your little eye?
The front door was locked
from the outside.
Like a prison.
It is a prison.
My sister branded me as insane,
and locked me in here.
Your sister?
Why?
Money.
My little sister.
She's trying to take
everything I have.
All the money I made,
and the inheritance
our parents left us.
Are you sure
you're not actually ill?
I saw your room.
It would drive
even the most sane person crazy.
If it seemed that way,
it's a success.
I'm trying to seem a little crazy.
That way, my sister will
let her guard down,
and then...
I can escape.
I see.
Do you
believe me?
I'm about to kill someone
for my own sister.
If there's a sister like me,
I guess there could be
sisters like yours.
And to be honest,
whether you're telling
the truth or not,
it's none of my business.
I like that
you're straightforward.
You didn't easily suspect me
or pity me.
Not sure if I should thank you.
Let's not do that.
Our lives are complicated
enough already.
Becoming close would
just be a nuisance.
It's her.
Who are you?
Sis, she...
You go inside.
Hi, excuse me.
I was passing through but
got lost and crashed my car.
So she let me stay here
for a little while.
It's late, so if you're done,
you should be on your way.
I wasn't able to fix the car yet.
So I'd like to stay the night.
Excuse me?
I can't call someone out here
in the middle of the night.
You understand, right?
Where are you going with my sister
in the middle of the night?
You stupid wench.
Still haven't learned your lesson
and you dare to run away again?
Run away?
Stop it!
What the...
That's why, you don't meddle
in other families' businesses.
Hey!
Who the hell are you?
Do you want to die?
No! We have to take him with us!
Let's just go! Just go!
No!
No!
Wake up!
Where did you bury my sister?
Wake up!
Did he say something
before he died?
Did you hear anything?
Did you hear anything at all?
I knew it would
eventually come to this.
Either you kill me,
or I kill you.
For us, the end has to be
one or the other.
Get up, we have to clean up here.
Are you just going
to stay like this?
It doesn't matter anymore.
That jerk is dead.
My little sister,
buried in the mountains...
Now I'll never find her.
So?
Do you want to go to jail
holding hands?
I don't care.
What if I told you
that I know where
your sister is buried?
Just do as I say.
Then I'll tell you,
where your sister is buried.
How do you know that?
I'll tell you
everything later.
So, starting now,
pay very close attention
and remember
what I'm about to tell you.
Memorize it.
And you have to tell the police
exactly what I told you.
Can you do that?
It's probably safer this way.
I'll count to 3.
Just do it.
I did everything
you told me to do.
Now it's your turn
to keep your promise.
How did you know
where my sister was buried?
A year ago,
a car drove by the house.
Our land is private property.
So that almost never happened.
I thought it was rare chance,
so I broke the window,
and ran after the car
to ask for help.
That's when I saw a man
burying a body.
Back then,
I had no choice but to let him go.
I didn't know until then,
that the man inside the trunk
was the man I saw that night.
I wasn't deliberately
keeping that from you.
Please believe me.
I see.
Is that it?
You don't have
anything more to say?
I do.
Thank you.
For saving me.
I was just saving myself.
If you're going to thank someone,
thank the nail that
poked a hole in the tire.
I'll be on my way.
Goodbye.
(Bus Terminal)
(The Woman in the White Car)
Attention, passengers.
The bus bound for Seoul at 12 p.m,
is about to depart.
I'm sorry.
Is that one your favorite?
Yes.
This book is really depressing.
The protagonist commits suicide
at the end.
They drive off a cliff.
What is that?
Did it fall out of the car?
My sister is calling me.
She keeps calling me.
Do-kyung!
I found it!
If I had known that he was the one
that killed Jun-seo...
I wouldn't have been so weak.
You saw who killed Choi Jung-man?
Yes.
The woman was Yoo Mi-kyung.
I won...?
I like the sound of that.
Can't you see the point
I'm trying to make?
Yoo Do-kyung may just be
completely sane.
(Lee Yong-jae)
Okay, got it.
The ambulance and reinforcements
are on their way.
So just hang tight.
Do you think someone like me
can ever lead a decent life?
Of course.
Why would you ask
such an obvious question?
(Haneul Park Hue Park)
Thank you.
For saving me.
I was just saving myself.
If you're going to thank someone,
thank the nail that
poked a hole in the tire.
If I wait long enough,
she'll come.
The killer always returns to
the scene of the crime.
Do you think someone like me
can ever lead a decent life?
Of course.
Why would you ask
such an obvious question?
Take it from someone
who's been through it.
You can trust me.
