[75-3, Nammak-ro, Kiran-gu, Seoul]

Mom.

Mom?

"Changing into protective mode."

[Kim Ji Woo, Sergeant,
Seoul Moan Police Station]

[AI beta test
for enhancement of personnel]

[Recruiting additional volunteers
for AI Implant Program]

[37, 68-gil, Hawon-gu, Seoul,
BIC Tower]

[Blink]

Yes, it's under control.

Kim Ji Woo, what are you doing?

One of them got away.

[Distance from the suspect]

My goodness. Go get him.

Gosh. What is this?

What happened? Did you lose him?

[Elevator speed: 120m per minute,
Estimated time: 1 minute 25 seconds]

[Walking speed: 22.32km per hour,
Estimated time: 1 minute 48 seconds]

[Probability of arrest
within 3 minutes: 82 percent]

She never listens to me.

[Suspect match probability:


Excuse me, have you seen
a man in a janitor's uniform?

[Analyzing credibility]

That way.

[Suspect match probability:


Sorry.

Install that on the stage.

We'll start soon.

You're not ready?

- You should get it together.
- Everyone, please get ready.

Something is wrong here.

Excuse me.

[Suspect match probability:


Coming through.

Please put them over here.

Sir, you should hit this spot
with a pin light, okay?

- That looks okay.
- Please don't stand there.

Please move along. I'm sorry.

- Come on. Hurry up.
- Hurry up and fix it.

Please be careful.

Sir, please adjust the lighting
for Section C.

- We're rehearsing right now.
- Hurry up and fix it.

Excuse me.
Did you see anyone coming in here?

Someone you haven't seen before.

No, I didn't see anyone.

Hey, Kim Ji Woo, what are you doing?
Hurry up.

[Suspect match probability]

Can you come back out here, please?

[Suspect match probability]

[Suspect match probability:


I'll be in trouble
if I don't finish it quickly.

[Suspect match probability:


Do you really work here...

Hey, Kim Ji Woo. Kim Ji Woo!

What our dear sergeant here
is saying is that she's so great...

that she doesn't need
any assistance from an AI.

Is that so?

That's not what I mean...

Even so, are we some kind of
minions of those computers or what?

"Minions"?

You know what I mean.
If we were to do whatever they say,

you can just build a few robots
and replace us with them.

They wouldn't run out of breath
and lose a suspect like somebody.

You're the one who made things get
this far. Are you humiliating me?

Kim Ji Woo.

You might lose your job
if you keep going on like this.

I admit that
I made a mistake, but...

You don't want that, do you?

Therefore, we're going to
make an exception,

and give you another chance.

So just do as we say.

If you do this,
we'll let your mistake slide.

What is it?

Pair up with a newbie.

Gosh, I was worried for nothing.

When will the newbie start? Today?

Do you want to meet the newbie now?

Yes.

All right then.

Hey, grant me access.

- Why?
- Just do it.

[Kim Ji Woo, Sergeant,
Seoul Moan Police Station]

Chief, can you...

Help me...

What is...

- Are you all right?
- Who was that?

An abnormal reaction
has been detected.

I guess it's been connected.

Starting the optimizing process.

Hello, Sergeant Kim Ji Woo.

What is this?

- The newbie.
- What do you mean?

It's an AI.

That... You... You mean, that?

Do you see something?
We can't see that.

Only you can see it
because it's inside your head.

What?

You know we had a chip implanted
in our heads during initiation.

No. I don't want to do this.
Take it out of my head now.

Just do it.

We're not telling you to work with
it forever. It's just a test run.

It'll be over soon.

Why? Are you intimidated that
your subordinate is a computer?

Isn't this... Isn't this
violation of human rights?

Stop talking nonsense.
Do you want to live with it forever?

You should solve a case
if you want to get rid of it.

Is there a particular look
that you prefer?

With your permission to access,

I can transform into a person
in your memory.

Let's just go with the basic model.
Should I call it "default"?

There are three models
for each gender.

A female... No, a male would be...
I pick number one however it looks.

Man One. Image optimized.

Do you not like this look?
Would you like to check number two?

Forget it. It's not like
I'm on a blind date.

Please give me a name now.

Are you a puppy?
Why should I give you a name?

I'll just call you AI.

This model has a default name.

- What is it?
- Seo Nang.

- Seo Nang?
- Yes. Seo Nang.

As in tutelary deity?

No one uses that word these days.

It suits me though.
It's related to things like ghosts.

To be exact, it literally means
a deity that protects human beings.

I wouldn't say I have the power
that deities have,

but I do have various functions
that you can use.

For example, how about I drive?

I have more advanced technology than
the existing autonomous vehicles...

No. I drive my own car.

Never say you'll drive again.

He really is like a ghost.

Gosh. That wasn't necessary.

There was an obstacle.

You're a mere ghost. Seriously.

Why? Do I look like
I've lost my mind?

You don't look much different
than usual.

Multiply 35,657 by 54,907.




It's around 1.9 billion.

Gosh. Do you have
like super powers or something?

Can you dodge b*ll*ts
and jump really high?

How did you even
pass the police exam?

If you would like such a function...

Gosh, forget it. Just get to work.

Who is she talking to?

The victim's name is
Shin Hye Gyeong. She was 27.

What's the estimated time of death?

Around 3 a.m. last night.
The manager found her on patrol.

I presume the cause of death is...

a skull fracture
caused by a blunt object.

Are there other external injuries?

Multiple fractures in the cervical
spine, ribs, and pelvis.

A few bruises as well,
as you can see.

It's as if she was hit by a car.

Could she have had some enemies?

Considering the injured parts
and the injury severity,

it can't be presumed to be
a car accident.

- It was a metaphor.
- What did you say?

Nothing.

It's certain that she was
brutally assaulted.

But if you look at the minor wounds
on her hands,

the victim highly likely
hit the attacker too.

So, she fought back.

What kind of weapon?

The weapon hasn't been found.

In a case of robbery and m*rder
for taking money or valuables...

It doesn't look like it was
to take money or valuables, right?

You're right. The attacker didn't
even touch her belongings.

It doesn't look like it was to
sexually as*ault the victim either.

I see. I'll go and check
her house first.

Let's get going.

Why won't you listen to
my analysis?

I'm a third generation AI
that's optimized for police tasks.

You...

How dare you talk back...

I'm worried that it makes her
look like a crazy person.

I mean, she's a police officer.

[Unit 305]

What could the passcode be?

I can guess the passcode
based on her personal information.

What is it?

I have 1,651 possible passcodes.

The estimated time to unlock it is


Where did Shin Hye Gyeong work?

She worked at Solmaru,
a health food company...

for about a year and a half.

Solmaru...

I guess she didn't like
products from her company.

Is that important?

Not really.

Normally they are piled up.

I think the victim
liked to exercise.

Why do you say that?

Okay. Let's see how good she was.

"Are you in bad shape today?

Do you need help?

"How about trying another position?"

Be quiet!

My goodness.

"Faster!"

"Your score for today
fell 33 percent than the last time."

Wasn't it too much for a computer?

She was...

She was more than
just a workout maniac.

You know what I mean?

I'm...

I'm good at sports.

Wait.

She worked out hard.

But it looks like she was sick.

What is this?

An immunosuppressant
called azathioprine,

a painkiller called tramadol,

and third generation
cephalosporin antibiotics...

called ceftriaxone.
It’s a combination of the three.

When is it used?

Considering the other medicines
that she was taking,

she was suffering from
an autoimmune disorder...

or she had an organ transplant.

An organ transplant?

We can't know the details for now.

She didn't have any family, did she?

No, all deceased.

Why are we here again?

Because I'm frustrated, punk.

I don't understand.

I wanted to imagine what it was like
when Shin Hye Gyeong died here.

That's why I'm here. Got it?

Don't you want to know
what kinds of abilities I have?

I guess I'll figure that out
if I hang out with you long enough.

Come on.

- Hey.
- Get this.

Come here.

- Bring it on.
- Don't talk to me.

- I lost it again.
- Stop it.

What is it?

- Hey.
- Bring it on.

- Are you kidding me?
- Come on.

Hey, thank you.

You're the best.

Not for me. I quit.

Give me one.

- Here.
- Me too.

Do you know what this is?

- Is it a good one?
- Wait.

My goodness.

Oh my...

Where did you get this?

Watch this.

Here we go.

- How is it?
- This is cool.

How is it?

My goodness.

How is it?

- Hey, that is enough.
- Amazing.

How is it?

- Can you see me?
- What's it like?

Hey, can you record this?

Record this.

- Gosh.
- Want to try?

Come here.

What are you doing?

- What is this?
- Who's that?

Hey, do you know who that is?

- What have they been doing?
- They made a c*ck of drugs...

to cause a chemical reaction...

of the contact lens'
drug delivery system...

so they can temporarily experience
abnormality of brain and vision.

I saw it on the news.

You will lose your eyes
if you keep doing this.

Who are you, lady?

- I'm a cop.
- A cop?

So what?

Whose contact lenses are they?
Are they yours?

Did you steal them?

Why do you care?

Detective, I sense danger.

- Gosh.
- Amazing.

Hey, you try the move too.

- That's impressive.
- She's cool.

I ran 75 simulations.

And I found the best possible route.

What?

Running simulations again.

My goodness!

- What was that?
- Is that a real g*n?

Did I get hit?

You know that computers analyze
things right away these days.

Pictures of your faces have
already been sent to the precinct.

What do you think the AI...

will tell me to do
if someone attacks me?

Come on. You're trying to scare us.

Aren't the AI supposed to
protect good citizens?

Are you good citizens?

Should I check to see
if you're good citizens?

[Seo Soo Hyun, Saewoon High School
Heo Sae Na, Saewoon High School]

Do you want me to read your files?

Why are you stopping?
Go on. It's interesting.

Senior of Saewoon High School,
Class 2, number 21.

Choi Joo Young.

If I take you in this time, sweetie,

they won't just let you off.

Do you want to come with me?

Gosh.

She called me sweetie.

Wait.

How often do you come here?

Red eye, come here.

This is the recording
of the smart lenses.

Hey, are you scared?

I'm not scared.

Come close and watch.

Don't fuss.

They're flying around.

Hey, where are you going?

Come and see.

He doesn't even flinch.

What's he doing?

Gosh, what if she dies?

Let's get out of here.

It's not like they're simply
wearing lenses like we do.

Maybe they put something
in their heads like I did.

Or maybe they replaced
some body parts. I'm not sure.

But their physical abilities
are greatly enhanced.

The person who k*lled
Shin Hye Gyeong is one thing.

I also found a lot of medicine
at Shin Hye Gyeong's house.

Based on the ingredients,
I think she had a medical procedure.

Is there a company with that kind of
cybernetic technology in Korea?

None that we know of.

The health supplement company
called Solmaru was a shell company.

But look at this.

A large amount of money was
sent to Shin Hye Gyeong's account.

So, it has something to do with
her becoming a half-cyborg?

The fact that
it hasn't been revealed...

means they're still in the process
of development.

And it might be very dangerous.

The m*rder*r seems like
he was created as a weapon.

I also think that the military is
involved in this case.

What's suspicious is...

that the autopsy report doesn't
say anything about cybernetics.

[Cause of death: a skull fracture
caused by a blunt object]

That's odd. There must've been
something related to it.

Exactly.

It's also odd that the funeral
arrangements are already finished.

It looks as if someone is trying to
bury the truth about her death.

Bury the truth?

Detective, how can death be buried?

I mean someone is trying to
hide the truth about her death.

- Are you talking to me?
- No, sir.

- Oh, I see. Go ahead.
- No.

Seeing that they even fabricated
the autopsy report,

letting the higher-ups know
about this won't do us any good.

All we have is
circumstantial evidence.

Do you have any good idea?

We should bring evidence.

Chief, do you have access to
military classified information?

There is a scientific solution.

Scientific solution, my foot.

Your work speed
has been decreasing...

by 5 percent per minute
since 13 minutes ago.

Please pick up the pace.

Are you sure this is the only way?

If you're lying, I'll k*ll you.

All the data cables are designed to
be buried underground...

for security purposes.

It's a scientific method...

of blocking access from outside.

I can't do it.

Let me take a break.

By the way,

how did you do that?

What do you mean?

Those punks...

I mean, I felt weird
when I was fighting with those kids.

I felt like I had drunk 10 bottles
of caffeinated drinks at once.

I simply improved
your physical ability.

Do I really have super powers?

I can't help you do anything
beyond human ability...

because I'm a mere software,
not a machine.

Is that a yes or no?

But why didn't you follow
my instructions...

based on the simulations?

Why didn't I beat them up?

This is why I don't like you AIs.
You're too simple.

Gosh.

Detective.

Please show me the human ability.

Darn it.

Let's do this.

- Make sure to find the information.
- I'll be back shortly.

[Chiwoo Industries owns a patented
AI technology.]

[It invented prosthetics
with an AI system.]

Chiwoo Industries invented...

a cybernetic technology
for military purposes in secret.

They created a human weapon?

Yes. Just as you assumed,

the subjects were Shin Hye Gyeong
and Captain Baek Jung.

Baek Jung had medical procedures
to enhance his physical strength.

What's this?
Has he gone insane? Why?

Right after his physical
and intellectual ability reached...

the highest level after six months,

he started showing symptoms of
a psychotic break from reality.

He called AIs ghosts,

and said that ghosts would k*ll him.

Is that why he destroyed
all the AIs he could find?

And that's why he k*lled
Shin Hye Gyeong?

That would be correct
based on the records.

Baek Jung k*lled a person
a week after he escaped,

but Chiwoo Industries tried to
cover up the truth?

Presumably, they hid it to protect
the technology they're working on.

I know. But this is too much.

Detective.

I think I can predict
Baek Jung's next target.

Who is it?

[Beta test applicant, Kim Ji Woo]

Maybe it's a good thing.

I don't want to die.

It's a good thing because we won't
have to look for him.

Won't he find me
just like he found Shin Hye Gyeong?

Besides, you can't die.
You're not alive to begin with.

I am alive.

I guess you can say that
from a certain perspective.

If someone k*lled me,

how would that make you feel?

Hey, first of all,
you're inside my head.

So if you're dead,
that means I'm also dead...

What's that?

I think our location was discovered
when I accessed the server.

What?

That's Baek Jung.

Where did he go?

Detective, please let me drive.

I told you not to say that.

Don't you want to know
what kinds of abilities I have?

Changing to
the autonomous driving mode.

Detective, hang in there
just a little longer.

It will work out fine this time.

Detective.

I can destroy Baek Jung now.

The probability that we cause
Baek Jung to die...

from skull fractures
if we drive straight ahead is...

higher than 98 percent.

If you're reluctant to do this,

there's another way.

Taking down Baek Jung,
but not as a human being.

How?

By having me infiltrate his head.

To be more exact,
a cloned version of me.

Are you saying your doppelganger
will take down Baek Jung's AI?

Yes. If we attack his AI,

he'll be destroyed.

I'll begin the backup.

Does this mean Baek Jung will
have someone who's exactly like you?

Well...

I can't guarantee
that it'll be exactly like me.

But we need access
to get into his head.

I'll try hacking into it.

Initiating simulation.

- What?
- Get a move on.

Hurry.

I see that you're a ghost too.

You're human too.

Starting the hacking process.

Detective, hang in there
for just a little longer.

Baek Jung's AI
has been completely destroyed.

He'll stay unconscious
for a little while.

Are you all right?

He's better than you.

How are you feeling?

My goodness.

About Chiwoo Industries'
secret experiment...

I heard
a task force has been formed.

Sorry you had to go through
all that by yourself.

I didn't do it all by myself.

Oh, the test run. It's done now.

All of a sudden?

They're reassessing
all the AI implant projects...

because of this incident.

So they've stopped it
for the time being.

Then what's going to happen to him?

Him? Who?

I mean...

Where will he...

First, just get some rest.

Rest up. Some specialists
will stop by later and collect him.

I heard those people
want to ask you something.

- Already?
- What? "Already"?

Are you already attached?

Didn't you ask me to get rid of him
a little while back? Gosh, you.

Anyway, take good care of yourself.

- I'm off.
- Okay.

Thanks. You did a great job too.

I have a personal question.

What kind of AI
asks personal questions?

We're about to part ways.
Can't you just answer my question?

Sure.

All right, Nang. Ask away.

What's your question?

Do you not like simple things?

What?

I'm talking about AI.
You said it's too simple.

Simple...

It's not that I don't like it.

I just thought it was too precise.

But isn't being precise
a good thing?

My mom and dad had set up
the automated driving system...

so that I'd be protected first in
the backseat in case of an accident.

And the system...

precisely followed that order
without hesitation...

in that split second.

I mean, that was to be expected.

But being the only one
who survived the accident...

It's not something
I can be thrilled about.

Don't worry about me.

What on earth?
Why would I worry about you?

Come on. I heard you asking him
earlier where I'll be sent to.

Without humans, we simply can't
be materialized in the real world.

Once I leave you,

I'll just exist as some data
on a disk.

Like those tens of thousands of
bad selfies you haven't deleted...

just because you can't be bothered.

Seriously?

The AI that was implanted
has been deleted completely.

We've run a few tests,
and everything seems fine.

Is there anything
you'd like to tell us?

About what you experienced
after the AI implantation.

I'm Ji Woo, that's my name

You're the one who likes milk tea.
I'm not a fan. It's too bitter.

Gosh. Says the man
who had three cups of it.

I did?

Well, they kept offering the tea
instead of food.

Piggy must've been hungry too.

Ji Woo.

When we get home, shall we order
some cheese pizza, your favorite?

Detective, did you have
a good night's sleep?

I wanted to give you
a farewell gift,

but an expensive gift
would've made you uncomfortable.

So I found this memory of yours
among all your data.

I just went ahead
skipped asking for permission.

We've gotten pretty close,
so I'm sure you'll understand.

To tell you the truth,
I'm not sure whether or not...

you'll like this gift.

Could I have had a better idea
had we been allowed...

to spend more time together?

Frankly, I'd say everyone
who comes here is an artist.

Don't you think so?

You don't have to make something
with your hands to be an artist.

We all create an artwork or two
inside our heart...

in the course of life. After all,
that's what life is all about.

By the way,

this doesn't look authentic.

Looks like you have
a keen eye for art.

[Choi Go Eun]

[Ahn Min Young]

[Kim Ju Yeon]

Judging from the dates of the visits
and the transaction patterns,

it looks like authentic pieces have
gone missing in the past as well.

Last summer.
Around the 15th of last month.

And last Friday as well.

Are you psychic?

No, I'm not.

By the way, do you usually
investigate your cases alone?

Don't detectives normally partner up
with others?

I have to say,

two is definitely better than one.

[Seo Nang]

[SF8]

There are only seven days left
until the doomsday.

[A week before doomsday]

Freeze!

Why did you sneak
into that empty house?

The person who lives in that house
has supernatural powers.

I see that
this isn't your first time.

I was told
that I have the ability...

to make the person I love
never forget me.

[Baby It's Over Outside]
