Moo-gang’s girlfriend, YOON SO-WAN ( Lee El), makes him a birthday dinner and reminds him to call his mother more often. The brawl turns into a drunken fight between the detectives and the gangsters as Kwang-kyun comes to Moo-gang’s rescue. The gang leader and his men start beating Moo-gang up, stopping only when they realize that he’s a detective. Unfortunately for Moo-gang, he has to pass other diners with their raw meat (and other stomach-churning parts of an animal), and ends up vomiting all over a gang leader. They tell Moo-gang that he should eat, but when Kwang-kyun pretends an egg is a cow’s eye in their beef stew, Moo-gang gags and runs for the bathroom, his weak stomach once again about to betray him. Meanwhile, the detectives have dinner, and they’re all a little bit tipsy. She calls out for her father, just like she did when she was a young girl, when she was scared that she could see the dark shadows.īack then, her father gave her a pair of sunglasses, telling a young Ha-ram that they would help prevent her from seeing “the scary things.” Adult Ha-ram, looking over her collection of sunglasses, sadly says that she can’t endure it any longer. She starts to cry, wondering if she really does bring misfortune and whether people die because of her.
Ha-ram blames herself for not trying harder to prevent him from leaving. She pretends to hold a conversation with him, telling him about her recently departed ex-boyfriend. Ha-ram returns home to her rooftop apartment and pops in a DVD of her favorite pretty boy actor. The ex-boyfriend shakes her off and hurries out to his car… only to get fatally hit by a passing Truck of Doom. He’s an old boyfriend, actually, and he coldly tells her that the reason he dumped her was because she brings misfortune - apparently she had warned him about his mother’s death, which came to pass. Ha-ram sees a dark cloud behind another customer, and she suddenly grabs that customer’s arm and begs him to wait a few minutes. Moo-gang is fascinated by the fact she won’t look at him, and she mutters that she’ll pull out his own eyes if he won’t stop staring. Ha! The manager removes those too, and she immediately shields her eyes as she demands that Moo-gang finish his order. Her manager, annoyed at how rude she appears with the sunglasses, takes them off her - but she’s wearing another pair underneath.
Not that anyone would know where she was looking - despite it being nighttime and her being indoors, she’s wearing sunglasses. Moo-gang stops at a fast food place to get a bite to eat in order to settle his stomach, and the cashier, KANG HA-RAM ( Go Ara), bluntly takes his order without looking at him. Kwang-kyun finds a mysterious gel-filled sack wedged between the skeleton’s ribs, though. The body was hit in the head with a blunt instrument, which indicates murder, and based on the shape of the skull, it’s assumed that the victim was a man. As the CSI crew tell partner Na Kwang-kyun about their findings, Moo-gang retches at the sight and smell of the rotting skeleton, which causes him to lose his lunch all over the crime scene.Īpparently this is not the first time Moo-gang has contaminated a crime scene with his sensitive stomach, and in frustration, Kwang-kyun kicks him out of the way so that he can investigate (while picking off undigested bits off ramyun from the skeleton, ew). It’s raining at a crime scene as rookie detective HAN MOO-GANG ( Song Seung-heon) and his partner make their way over to the body that’s been dug up. He desperately breaks the window to reveal a rotted corpse in the passenger seat. He swims to a car that’s at the bottom of the ocean, covered in dirt and algae. Or at least, that’s what I assume will happen, because even though the premiere episode’s runtime came close to an hour and a half, most of it was setup for the characters and the spooky mysteries that are to come.Ī man slowly walks to the edge of a cliff before falling off of it, landing in the water below. OCN is back with a new mystery-thriller about one woman’s supernatural ability to not only see death, but interact with Death himself as they work together to save lives. 102 OctoOctoBlack: Episode 1 by odilettante
