Dr. Frost
There's no other place like here.
There's nobody here.
Wait a second,
I think somebody's here.
What? I'm telling you there is nobody here.
Let's just eat this.
But,
I think something smells weird here.
That smell is coming from you.
Hey, just come over here.
Sit, sit, sit.
Hey, Kim.
What is that over there?
Hey you!
This is our place! Get lost!
Really, this jerk!
You should at least answer if someone is talking to you!
Hey, stand up.
Stand up, you punk.
What?
You think this is funny?
Why are you freaking out?
Episode 3: Mask Manual
Let him down gently.
I have a strange feeling about this.
Sunbae-nim, both of these people were submitted as missing before.
When were they submitted?
5 days ago. Name, Park Doo Chul. Age, 42.
He was a head of the Urban Planning Department for the Gu office. And according to his wife, he quickly left after receiving a phone call late at night.
How about the other one?
Goo Ji Sung, age 38.
He was a team leader for the Sales Department at the Noblesse Mall.
But no one saw him after a get-together with his colleagues last week.
An official and a sales department team leader...
How did these normal people end up dying here?
- Look at this. - Wow.
Move out of the way,
Class cancelled for 3 weeks. Read and submit a research essay or an essay with an analysis of a certain person's behavior.
What are you curious about?
What do you mean? I came to eat Kimchi Jigae (kimchi stew).
Humans have two types of facial expressions. One is the first expression that stays only for a moment.
And the other one is the face that person keeps consciously.
The one that reveals your true feelings is the first one.
Right now your expression is the second one.
The first expression is when you sat down in front of me a moment ago, with your eyebrow slightly raised.
I noticed your pupils growing larger instantaneously at that moment.
Pupils react sensitively when you are curious, typically.
Alright.
First, you and Kimchi Jigae,
don't match.
And you're not even eating it when you already have ordered it.
Why did you come here?
Why do you want to know?
I chose you as the person whose behavior, I will analyze
for the essay we have to write.
You're going to analyze me?
Hey Auntie!
What?
Please give me some more pickled radish.
Would you have endured like you did a moment ago,
if this place was a high class restaurant?
Well, your expectations are different for different restaurants.
That lady probably didn't get any service training like other restaurants.
I can just wash my clothes.
Why did you even come if you're not going to eat?
Where are you going now?
A place where I won't get bothered by anyone.
Somewhere I can observe people.
I could take you there.
When third-parties help, the probability of getting the right answer can become much higher.
When the third-party is too emotional,
it gets in my way.
Professor!
Oh, Detective Nam, how are you?
Oh, just a second please.
It's Detective Nam.
Yes, it's me.
Do you have any plans to get a phone?
I feel more comfortable without it.
Hey.
You shouldn't give others hard time just to make yourself comfortable.
Did I give you a hard time?
You should get one, anyway.
I, too, have a private life.
It's not like I'm an automatic caller or anything.
These days, I get more calls for you than for myself.
I bet you didn't know that.
This way.
Park Do Chul. He's an official in the Gu office. They say he went missing five days ago.
He was found here.
Here.
Goo Ji Sung. He was a team leader of the Sales Department at the Noblesse Mall.
They both went to the same high school.
I heard they were pretty close.
The attacker crushed the victim's face, and now, he is almost unrecognizable.
The other one was hung by him.
This usually comes from holding a grudge, doesn't it?
His attack was too harsh anyway.
The murderer probably has some mental problems, right?
The time when Goo Ji Sung left, after the get-together, was 11 o'clock at night.
His colleague dropped him off nearby his house.
He dropped him off nearby his house...
But there were no CCTV records of him going into the apartment.
I think he was kidnapped.
So the last person that saw Goo Ji Sung was his colleague?
Yes. He's Seo Hak Soo. He listed an alibi for him for that night.
Park Do Chul also left the house at a similar time.
When Park Do Chul was in the Urban Planning Department,
he made lots of mistakes.
He is notorious in Song Pa Gu.
Do more research on that one.
See if there would be any resident or a contractor, that would hold a grudge against Park Do Chul.
And check to see if he had any connection with Goo Ji Sung, monetarily.
Yes, I understand.
Did you find anything?
Her eyes are widened by a shock, her chin is stiff and she is rubbing her hands nervously.
That's the victim's family.
We have to remove this before she sees it.
Honey.
He stayed at home all day
since he doesn't go out much on Sundays.
Hey. What's up at this hour?
What did you say?
So?
What's the matter?
Alright.
I asked him where he was going,
but he just told me to not wait for him and go to bed.
Are there any places you can think of that he might have gone?
Not at all.
Do you know who Goo Ji Sung is?
Yes.
He went to the same school with my husband.
Did the two of them call or meet frequently for the past few days?
He used to come over to our house quite often, but I didn't get to see him recently.
Then, by chance
do you know anyone who might hold a grudge against Mr. Park Do Chul,
or someone who had issues with him?
He doesn't really talk about his work.
Even small things are ok, so feel free to talk.
Actually,
someone came to our house around a month ago.
Who is it?
I'm sorry to bother you late at night.
I am Jin Sun Mi, a worker from the Noblesse mall.
Is Mr. Park Do Chul home?
What matter did you come for?
Who is it?
Hey, miss. Do you know what time it is?
What can you gain from coming all the way over here?
Seriously. Out of the way.
What is this? I told you I would call you.
Apologize immediately.
Did your husband have affairs with other women?
No. Never.
Yes. Have a good day.
Busy recording the data of the analysis of a specific person?
N-no.
A female worker from Noblesse, the same company where Goo Ji Sung worked,
showed up to see Park Do Chul, in the middle of the night. Sounds a little fishy to me.
Touching her forehead, when mentioning the female worker, displays embarrassment.
So I was right. Woman problems. -But when you asked her that question, she was certain and confident.
No. Never.
She was embarrassed because she thought you would misunderstand, in this manner.
What do you mean?
You should go now.
Yes.
What is there to be embarrassed about, when her husband is dead?
These are the phone logs of Park Do Chul and Goo Ji Sung.
Give it to me.
The last person Park Do Chul talked to
was Goo Ji Sung.
And the same for Goo Ji Sung.
November 23, 11:30 pm.
After that call, they both turned off their phones.
Oh, and investigate a female worker at the Noblesse company named Jin Sun Mi.
Yes, I understand.
I'm honored to be in front of such beautiful ladies.
Excuse me, Mr. Frost.
Come here and have a drink with me. I'll pay for it.
I don't want to.
Do you want me to read your mind right now?
You want to drink with me, don't you?
What are you going to do, when I get drunk?
What are you going to do?
I'm not going to drink with you.
What do I lack?
I'm rich, and as you can see, I have a great body and a pretty face.
I am smart, too. What am I if I am not perfect?
I think I already told you, I don't want to.
What kind of bar is this? I came here after hearing compliments about this place, but they were all lies, I guess!
And you look like my poodle, too.
Bastard.
Wow. That's amazing.
What do I lack? Face? Body?
Face. It's funnier that she doesn't even know.
But she did look rich.
You should have drank with her. We're going to lose all of our customers.
You just "look like my poodle".
"Bastard."
Incident Report
He died the day after visiting Park Do Chul's home.
And the first to find the dead Jin Sun Mi was Goo Ji Sung.
Isn't the timing strange?
You think that the deaths of these three are related? I can see that from your face.
Yes.
At first, they tried to clear up Ji Sun Mi's death as suicide,
but there were a lot of calls for re-investigation.
Don't you think we could get different information if we met those people?
I think I could figure something out if I were to meet them.
Let's go shopping tomorrow.
The time of their deaths is approximately November 27th to 28th. The cause of death for Goo Ji Sung is...
It's ruptured internal organs.
His ribs pierced his lungs, as they broke.
And the cause of death for Park Do Chul is--
Suffocation.
Those types of marks
are made when you choke someone with something, like this.
Hey. Hey. Let go, Nam Tae Bong, you bastard!
It must have been a person who is strong enough to overpower Park Do Chul.
The possibility is high that the attacker is a male, who is stronger than Park Do Chul.
The both of them were dehydrated and their internal organs were empty.
In other words... -It is highly probable that they were confined.
You guys do it.
I'm pretty sure you have more to say.
Huh?
I knew it... that's why you looked pissed.
Hey. What is that thing?
He is Dr. Frost, a Psychology professor from Yong-gang University.
He scans for a second, and it's over. No one can avoid it.
On Park Do Chul's fist, the bloodstain of Goo Ji Sung was found.
And on Goo Ji Sung, Park Do Chul's was found.
Then does that mean these two people fought with each other?
You're not only too emotional, but also over react.
A professor who has no reaction
after seeing those terrible corpses, is more abnormal.
It's because it's your first experience. Whether it's corpses or love, you get better at it after a while.
Detective Nam!
Concentrate on your driving. I'm more terrified of this antique than those corpses.
What?
You can't even control your emotions. How are you going to do your observation?
I have my own ways.
Then I will look forward to your essay.
B-but, why are we going to the mall?
Isn't he really mean?
Acting like he's better than others and ignoring other people.
You know how to read people.
So your method is to form a rapport (trust between a doctor and a patient)?
What? A kiss (Pronounced as "ppoppo" in Korean)?
No, he didn't mean kiss. It is "rapport". It means to sympathize with each other.
But when did you first meet Professor?
It's been about 5 years. Why?
I was watching you guys at the police station yesterday and you guys were so in sync.
If he says one thing, you understand right away!
We are the best combination. Aren't we?
No.
Really...
But were there any cases that the two of you couldn't solve?
Why did you stop so suddenly? I don't want my shirt tainted.
You should stop with observing a "certain person".
We're here to investigate a murder case.
Yes.
I'm going to stop by the bathroom and go...
What is this?
Did you hear? Team Leader Goo isn't missing. Apparently he's dead.
He's dead?
He was found with that one customer who made a scene here.
Both of them?
Yes. Whenever I think of what he did to you and Sun Mi, I just get-
I-I'm sorry.
It's ok.
Oh yeah, I have to go pick up some clothes.
Sun Mi...
2013 Quarter 1/4 CS Manual Work Shop
Who are you?
Where did Detective Nam go?
If we're here to investigate, we should be investigating.
Do you need any help?
Did you see a short and a bit messy man by any chance?
He's my partner, and we are currently investigating Goo Ji Sung and Park Do Chul's murder case.
Are you a detective?
Was there anyone who would hold a grudge against Mr. Goo Ji Sung?
I'm not sure. He was good at clearing things up.
You know Miss Ji Sun Mi, don't you?
Sun Mi worked at all sorts of part time jobs when she was in high school.
Even though she worked hard, she was always a bright person.
Whenever I was with Sun Mi, I always felt better.
But, I ruined it all.
If it wasn't me...
What happened?
How may I help you, sir?
I'm here to pick a present for my wife so please choose some for me.
Yes.
You hit me right now, didn't you?
Sir,
it's not that... -What is it then?
At that time, Sun Mi got involved.
She was Ji Hye's best friend.
It will be a problem if you do this customer.
What did I do that caused a problem? Tell me.
Is it too much of a problem, that you can't say anything?
Should I tell you instead?
Who is this? Why are you interfering?
As soon as you came into this store,
You were looking at this female employee, and touched her.
I saw it clearly and this is considered sexual harassment.
Stop it, Sun Mi. -What, sexual harassment?
Just because I patted her for being pretty? It seemed like the young lady
was having a hard time so I was trying to encourage her. But what? Sexual harassment?
Sir, we never asked you to tell us that we are pretty.
Because of someone like you thinks we're too pretty,
there are some employees that had to deal with depression. -You didn't say anything because you were okay with it. Isn't that right?
She didn't just stay still because it was okay.
She had to endure it.
Therefore, the customer should apologize first! -What do you think you are doing?
Manager, this customer was...
Miss Sun Mi, what are you doing? Are you not doing your work?
And you dare yell at a customer. Are you out of your mind?
Sorry, customer, I apologize.
What happened with your education?
Team Leader Goo. She's saying that I sexually harassed her.
Wow, how dare you suspect an innocent person.
You know me. Am I that kind of person?
Of course not.
-I apologize, from here on out, I will try...
Manager, you don't need to apologize, it was not our fault.
Please forgive us.
Sis.
I apologize once again, customer. I will make sure this will not happen again.
She told me she has a picture on her phone and that she was going to sue him.
She told me that she will sue him and be a witness for me.
But,
What? Did he lie until the end?
Team Leader Goo threatened her.
He told me that I'll get a detention if I don't stop Sun Mi.
If the Mall's image gets tarnished, how will she take responsibility for her actions?
So the company threatens a worker for that?
Because of that incident, Sun Mi couldn't work for 3 months.
She worked so hard because of the hospital bills...
Really.
This is Kang Soo Jin, Lee Ji Hye.
The person linking arms with Ji Hye is
Jin Sun Mi.
Can we take that?
We will return them all later.
Do that.
I heard that the day Goo Ji Sung went missing was the day of a get-together for female employees who work at 3rd floor.
Did Seo Hak Soo go there, too?
No, around 10 at night,
I got a call from Ji Hye.
She asked for help since Team Leader Goo was drunk.
Why didn't you drop her off at her home then?
She asked me to drop her off near an apartment.
Since the streets looked dangerous, I saw her leave and then I left.
What time was that?
Around 11 o'clock at night, I think.
11?
Okay. Thank you for your participation.
Yes.
The door is opening.
TA Yoon! Where have you been?
I was looking around the mall.
Isn't it weird?
Goo Ji Sung likes to drink, but he got really drunk after drinking a few glasses.
Someone might've put something in his drink.
That is possible.
What do you think? Do you think I could be a detective, too?
Not sure.
We'll be here so bring that crap car.
Professor, do you think I'm your driver?
You guys can go by your car.
I have to go somewhere.
I'll take you there.
Yep, let's make that crappy car a city bus.
It's fine. You worked hard today.
I will call TA Yoon if something happens.
How did you contact him before?
It's really easy.
If I feel like he would be at school, I go there. And if I feel like he would be at home, I go there.
If not for both of them, it's over.
Isn't it easier for you now that you can get a hold of him right away by calling me?
It is. I like it so much!
That is why I feel like I am an automatic summoning machine, not a TA.
You can ignore the calls for me, from now on.
You heard that, right? If you call me, I won't necessarily tell him.
Seriously.
Dr. Frost.
Get a phone.
You know, that Smile Mask Syndrome...
What about it?
The employees at the mall reminded me of it.
It is also called Masked depression.
Even if you're smiling, you feel hopeless.
It would look like they are perfect on the outside,
but what would they be thinking on the inside?
You have to smile even if the customers are mean to you.
That would be frustrating.
Oh, right. Professor Chun asked for a list for counseling...
I'm leaving.
Ah, I don't know.
I got the preservation plan from you.
You wrote that the members for the experiment need to be changed due to the improper choice of subject for the experiment.
I'm gathering some samples, so wait for a few days.
Already?
I started this to help you, Professor Song.
I want to be a great help to you.
Thanks, but I am in charge of this project. Wouldn't it be more appropriate for me to make the choice?
But why are you getting mad?
-When did I? -Since I entered this room.
This project is very important to me. I hope you don't think of it as a child's play.
I don't do boring things.
That's a relief.
Professor Song. I brought some copies.
Team Leader Bae. You don't have to do this all the time.
It's okay. I had time to do it.
Kang Soo Jin left the drunk Goo Ji Sung to Seo Hak Soo...
And left by herself. But Goo Ji Sung got off here,
which is 2 kilometers away from his house.
But,
There aren't any CCTVs.
And now...
a CCTV is here.
Why are you still here, aren't you going home?
I think I fell asleep.
Do you still get nightmares?
Yes.
Relax. Don't work too hard.
And you need to tell the students in advance if you are going to make the long term cancellation for the class.
Yes.
I'm going.
I think I told you everything yesterday.
You left out some things, too.
You requested for a re-inspection on Jin Sun Mi's case.
It wasn't just me.
All of the employees of the sales department... -You guys loved each other, right?
How did you...
They were lovers.
How did you know?
He had a female's ring on his pinky.
And when he was looking at a picture of Jin Sun Mi, he was shaking.
Yes, that's right.
But what does that have to do with you?
Haha.
I don't know, either.
Jin Sun Mi said she was going to sue Park Do Chul, so Goo Ji Sung tried to stop her.
After that, Jin Sun Mi couldn't work for 3 months and then she died from falling.
And, you dropped off Goo Ji Sung, who was drunk,
not at his house, but in the dark of the middle of an overpass?
Huh?
It's because I was upset.
So you went straight home?
If you really want to know what happened, check the CCTV at my apartment.
I already saw everything.
And your alibi turned out to be perfect.
Good talk.
Welcome.
Please give me this.
You have keen eyes for clothes. Is it for your girlfriend?
If a guy buys female clothing,
does it mean it's for a girlfriend?
I apologize, sir. I will pack this right there.
What you said earlier is a statement with supposition, and is pointed toward the unspecified number of general public.
That doesn't even match the standards of customer service.
Furthermore, it increases the desire to complain on you.
-Excuse me? -Have you never thought what you said earlier would hurt someone?
I apologize if I hurt you with my words.
I'm not saying I got hurt.
I'm saying that your behaviour towards customers can cause many more problems in the future.
I apologize.
Ji Hye, what's wrong?
Manager.
I made a mistake. I'm sorry.
Why are you apologizing to your manager, when you did something wrong to me?
I'm sorry. I apologize once again that
our employee's immature behavior made you feel bad.
Was there anything else that bothered you?
No.
Oh, Dr. Frost! What are you doing here?
Is it my present? Did you buy this for me?
No. -You should have bought something for me, too. So careless.
This is yours.
It's an earring.
It's from the storage room.
I knew there would be an accomplice since Seo Hak Soo's alibi was so perfect.
And it turned out to be a woman.
I'm leaving, then.
You are my great partner, Dr. Frost!
You came, Professor?
You forgot to add "attractive appearance".
I was going to...
Did you see it?
Why do you look at somebody else's notes without permission?
What do you mean "somebody else's"?
It's about me.
That's true, but...
Yes, Detective Nam.
He wants to talk with you.
Yes, it's me.
Hey.
Zoom in the screen of CCTV at least 1 or 2 hours before Goo Ji Sung went missing.
-Yes. -Detective Lee!
Yes?
Go ask them to check the DNA of the earring. Wait, never mind.
Stay there until you get the result. Don't come back until then.
Got it.
Detective Kim!
Go lay an ambush with your team in front of Seo Hak Soo and Kang So Jin's houses.
If they look like they're trying to escape, arrest them right away. Got it?
- Yes, I understand. - Move quickly. Go!
Seoul City Police
There is footage with you and Goo Ji Sung in it.
No way.
I did.
There are no CCTVs in the overpass.
But do you know what footage the CCTV nearby the overpass got?
A car that was parked towards the overpass was in the footage.
And there was a black box (a camera), in that car.
Seo Hak Soo. You're over.
You met Kang Soo Jin at the overpass with Goo Ji Sung!
And you called Park Do Chul using Goo Ji Sung's phone!
Kang Soo Jin, where are you? Kang Soo Jin!
Come out, Kang Soo Jin!
Hey, Goo Ji Sung!
Wake up! Ji Sung!
Come out! Come out, Kang Soo Jin!
You damn...
Aish.
Come here.
Wakeup, Goo Ji Sung! Wake up!
Where am I?
What is this? Huh?
Where am I?
Where are we?
Why won't it open?
Hey, open the door!
I said to open the door, bastard! Hey, open the door!
Just as I thought.
What is?
Your crime was revealed,
and you're still smiling even if you're extremely mad on the inside.
You're wearing a mask.
You make it sound like you know me well.
I'm studying your expression as we speak.
What about my expression?
You're hiding your emotions.
It is a typical symptom, of a Smiling mask syndrome.
If the symptom gets worse, the anger you hid for a long time could come out all at once.
Just like how you, Miss Kang Soo Jin...
murdered Park Do Chul and Goo Ji Sung
cruelly.
I understand that I don't have emotions.
But do you think I would kill someone without a reason?
Then what's the reason for murdering those two?
They deserved to die.
I told you, it was an accident!
She was just trying to protect her phone from me, and it fell! I am telling you the truth!
Then why did you hide it from me? Do you think I'm an idiot?
You think I am lower than you, huh?
You were trying to blame it on me, weren't you?
Ji Sung. I am telling you the truth.
I was going to report this, but how could I? If they found out, I'd be done for sure.
I would've confessed if it were just that. Do you know how much commission I get?
I can't afford to lose that!
She's dead now. I'm alive, and I have to continue living.
Yes, those who are alive have to continue living.
In return,
let's share the commission.
Okay, okay. I'll give you 40%. Is that okay?
So that's when I decided.
To kill those two.
Even if you have a reason, you can't do something like that to a person!
Whenever I think of what they did to Sun Mi,
I could do more than that.
You're not going to open the door?
Open the door!
-Calm down. -Let go of me, you bastard!
Open the door! Why are you not opening it!
Huh? Ah, seriously.
Open the door!
2 days of confinement
I didn't do anything wrong, I didn't do anything wrong!
Yeah. Let's see who wins.
Do you think I will sit and do nothing when I get out of here?
3 days of confinement
Tell them.
What?
Tell them that you killed her.
This damn bastard.
Hey, Goo Ji Sung.
What did you just say?
A murderer.
I said that you're a murderer. So what?
Hey, bastard. Are you crazy?
-Did you forget who I am? -Stop it!
I'm trapped in here because of you!
Didn't you say your father has cancer?
If you get fired, it'll be difficult.
I will help you so let's end this peacefully.
I didn't want any help in the first place.
If you don't want to get sued, go and apologize to Ji Hye right now.
So give me the phone first.
No. Apology is the priority.
Aish.
Hey, Hak Soo!
Miss Soo Jin!
Park Do Chul is the one who killed Jin Sun Mi!
I'm the witness! She was already dead when I went there.
It's true. It wasn't me.
Tell me the truth. Did you see it?
Did you see me kill her?
Then why did you call me at that time?
Then why did you tell me?
Wouldn't it be because there was something bothering you?
I'm so tired of being dragged around by you!
Do you know how annoying it is to be with someone like you?
Hey, Hak Soo!
I'm telling you, this bastard is the murderer!
This bastard is the murderer!
Let me out, please!
You bastard.
I didn't kill her.
I didn't kill her!
Are you satisfied now?
Is this what you guys wanted?
You're smiling, huh?
You think I will stay here and do nothing? I'm not going to!
If Sun Mi could come back to life,
I can't do anything worse than that.
It's the first time
seeing emotions from you, Miss Kang Soo Jin.
Is it because of Jin Sun Mi?
Sun Mi was the only one
who made me feel alive.
Sis, you don't have to do it if you're tired.
You don't have to force yourself to smile in front of us.
It was the first teardrops in five years.
Before that...
So before Sun Mi came to my life,
I had no one.
Someone was talking,
I don't have anyone, the person talking was definitely me,
but I wasn't there.
Do you understand
how it feels like to be like a talking doll?
This is fishy.
But the case is solved.
And the truth about Jin Sun Mi's death is revealed, too.
Why?
You're not smiling and thinking of something else, are you?
I have no idea
what that Dr. Frost has in mind.
Not being able to express emotions is like a punishment.
Humans interact by sharing emotions.
And confirm each other's identities by doing so.
However, the people who are forced to restrain their emotions,
or people who hide their emotions like they're wearing a mask,
and people who were not able to feel anything since they were born.
Using what, would they
confirm their existences?
I am not a human messenger. Open it by yourself.
rapport
How is counseling job going?
It's not bad.
TA Yoon helps you a lot, doesn't she?
She's interesting.
I'm observing her as a representation of emotional people.
Now that I think of it, we walked together like this before.
Do you remember?
It was the first day when I came to Yong-gang University.
This tastes good because Nam Bong, you bought it.
No way. All bread tastes the same.
Look at you.
You said that you are still having nightmares, right?
Yes.
What kind of dream is it?
An incident when I was young, I was trying to get out of a car.
That's what my dream was about.
- But... - But?
There was another person.
Not parents but there was another person.
Who was it?
Dr. Frost
Smiling is the easiest way to attract someone.
I am going to kill you.
It seems no one saw the suspect's face.
And the CCTV is broken.
This is a nasty case.
What happened after counseling last week?
He's trying to kill me.
Don't go alone. It's dangerous.
If it's because of me that someone's life is ruined...
