- 1994, a small provincial town. A young girl walks home alone in the rain.
- A man in a baseball cap offers her an umbrella. The camera lingers on his hand—clean nails, no visible weapon.
- Cut to: A muddy ditch. A child’s shoe. A police officer vomiting.
- Then, the title card: “Gap Dong” (갑동이) – the nickname given to the unknown serial killer.
Character introductions are economical but evocative. The episode sketches a detective or journalist protagonist driven to reopen the case, motivated either by personal loss or a commitment to truth. Supporting characters—reluctant witnesses, hardened officers, and sensationalist media figures—help create a textured social environment where truth competes with reputation and fear. These interactions lay groundwork for later moral conflicts: loyalty vs. justice, complacency vs. confrontation.
The Prologue: The Legend of Gap-dong
The episode opens with a dark history. In the fictional city of Iltan, a serial killer nicknamed "Gap-dong" terrorized the streets years ago. He committed nine murders, leaving behind a distinct signature: cigarette butts and a peculiar drawing at the crime scenes. He was never caught, becoming a local urban legend—a ghost story parents tell their children.
His father, a man with the mental capacity of a child, is the town’s pariah. Why? Because a serial killer named "Gap-dong" is carving a path through the girls of Iltan, and the lead detective, Yang Cheol-gon, is convinced the village idiot is the monster. The Red Scarf
