The detectives stop him before he inflicts any more injuries, and Kwon comments, “I’ll be sure to pay you back.” Moo Gak punches Kwon at his wounded area, before punching his face for Cho Rim’s parents. Instead, he will tell him how he felt when he killed her sister. Kwon answers confidently that they will meet each other again and jibes that his apologies won’t make Moo Gak feel better about his guilt of being a survivor. He unlocks his handcuffs and asks Kwon to apologise to Cho Rim’s parents and his sister now, since he won’t see Kwon ever again. Before he leaves, Moo Gak wants to have some private time with him. The investigation is over and now Kwon will be handed over to the Prosecutors. Cho Rim touches the photograph tenderly and cries as she reads the diary that her mum wrote for Kwon. Moo Gak visits Cho Rim’s father and brings home a photograph of Cho Rim’s parents and her, as well as her mother’s ring. Moo Gak threatens to burn another book, and Kwon begs Moo Gak to stop. Most probably Yeom’s idea since this happens only after Yeom returns from the hospital. Kwon refuses to say anything during his interrogation, but is fully broken down when Moo Gak burns Chun’s diary (in actual fact, it’s just an empty book that they retrieved from Kwon’s library) in front of him. But done in this current way, it feels juvenile and slightly messy. If they had developed that more, then it would make sense for Cho Rim to recover all her memories once Moo Gak’s senses return. Therefore, it seems a little weird that the both of them are so convicted that once one recovers, the other one will recover too. For one, the couple themselves never fully draw the link between Cho Rim’s sight of smells and Moo Gak’s loss of senses. I know that this entire episode is ‘useless’ in the sense of any concrete plot development, but small things like this irk me. Moo Gak pats her back and consoles her, “It’s okay. He wakes her up and hugs her, and she tells him that she has remembered everything – her parents, the house on the day of accident, Kwon, the accident. Moo Gak is awakened by her moans and cries, and rushes to her bedside. The suffering of the victim continues.”Cho Rim cute-ly shuts Moo Gak up and tells him to eat, but to their surprise, Moo Gak feels full after 2 servings.Ĭho Rim is happy for Moo Gak and notes that maybe it’s time for her memories to return.Īs if she’s a prophet or as if her memories are really docile creatures that listen to her, that very night, she dreams of her parents. The couple returns home after the doctor chases everyone out of the room, and even at home, Moo Gak continues to ponder, “I guess the sin doesn’t end when the criminal is arrested. I love Nam Goong Min’s desperation as usual, but it makes me wonder – does it make sense that Kwon doesn’t have a better escape plan? But of course, it could be because he never thought he would get caught. Inspector Kang smiles, “You have caught him.” Yeom wakes up and asks groggily about Kwon. Inspector Kang laments that detectives always have a heavy heart when they caught a criminal but move on to the next case anyway. While waiting for her to wake up, Moo Gak comments he doesn’t feel great even though they have caught Kwon. Kwon screams desperately for Moo Gak not to touch the books.Īs Kwon gets dragged away, Yeom is sent to the hospital. Moo Gak checks through the bag and finds Joo Mari’s and Chun Baek Kyung’s books with the barcodes. Kwon stumbles out of the house in an attempt to get away, but finds himself already facing hoards of policemen. Kwon provokes Moo Gak by admitting that he was the one who killed Moo Gak’s sister, and Moo Gak replies by firing a shot into him. Kwon asks if Moo Gak can let him go, and the answer is obviously no. Before he can leave, Moo Gak appears behind him and fires a warning shot into the air. Kwon pulls his head away and rushes up to the first level to grab his bag. It is obvious however, that they are building up to one final confrontation between Cho Rim and the serial killer, so all I could think of for almost the entire episode was – Kwon is going to turn up soon. The rom-com bits are always great to watch, so I forgive the lack of anything that is happening.
