The Third-Gen Chaebol Becomes a Genius Actor Chapter 215

《 Guilt by association (5). 》

Kang Yun-seong’s suspicious movements, which ended in suspense, were revealed in the next episode.

“So you were investigating alone?”

“Yes…”

“You should have told me!”

Just like Ko Seung-hye, Kang Yun-seong was aware of the serial murder case first and was secretly investigating it separately. The screen changed for a moment and showed Kang Yun-seong filling a wall of his room with evidence related to the investigation of the case.

Kang Yun-seong’s expression changed strangely as he stared at the data related to the incident for a long time. It looked like he was crying or angry. It was an expression that made me naturally curious about the story.

[hello? Mom?]

[Yoonseong-ah. What are you doing when you’re not sleeping yet?]

Then Kang Yun-seong received a call from his mother. He noticed that his mother’s voice was unusual and his eyes widened.

[Mom, did you really go there?!]

[I was still worried… I just came back after checking the body. They didn’t take care of it…]

[But still, why go there!]

His biological father died in prison. I thought of the person I never wanted to think about again, and I stroked my bangs in frustration.

[I’m sorry.]

However, as soon as he heard his mother’s tired voice, Kang Yun-seong came to his senses and sighed heavily.

[…I’m sorry.]

[Yoonseong-ah.]

[I’ll hang up. Let’s talk later.]

“Hey, can’t you hear me?”

Kang Yun-seong, waking up from his thoughts, pouted his mouth and mumbled.

“…But you, detective, were investigating alone.”

“I’m the team leader!”

“The more you do that, the more you should have left it to your teammates.”

I couldn’t refute those words, so I kept my mouth shut. Anyway, what a reckless guy. I’m trying not to say a single word. Still, Kang Yun-seong was the only person who had the same thoughts as Ko Seung-hye.

“If you’re going to secretly investigate like this, let’s do it together. okay?”

“yes.”

“If you have any doubts, you should tell me openly.”

“yes.”

Kang Yun-seong nodded with a sullen expression. The timid appearance was a new side of Yoo Yeon-seo that had not been seen in previous films. The audience’s reaction exploded.

-Oh, it wasn’t a big deal haha

– He looks like a rain-soaked mummy, he’s so cute ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅜㅜㅠ

– Can’t I raise crazy Yunseong? Haha

– I was fooled by the director ㅠ I thought he was the real culprit

– Was it intentionally made to be harsh?

Ko Seung-hye, who was investigating the neighborhood with Kang Yun-seong, received a call from Detective Kim.

“Why?”

Ko Seung-hye shouted at the voice that was heard next.

“what?!”

The scene changes and becomes a news screen.

(Another murder case occurred in Woosung City last night.)

News cameras capture Ko Seung-hye and Kang Yun-seong quickly entering the crime scene where a police cordon has been placed.

“What happened to Detective Go?”

“What happens? “It came all broken.”

Ko Seung-hye frowned in annoyance after being called to her superiors and scolded for asking why they still couldn’t catch her. He wasn’t annoyed because he heard something from above, but because he was annoyed at his inability to catch the culprit yet.

The area where the incident occurred was one of the two areas that Ko Seung-hye suspected. In addition, there were as many as two victims found. There have already been six victims of the serial murders that took place in Woosung City.

“The killing times are getting faster… Isn’t this dangerous?”

“If we leave it like this, it will explode. “Let’s focus on patrolling this area for now.”

The police, who were increasingly aware of the seriousness of the incident, were focused on catching the criminal without resting for a moment. At that time, Kang Yun-seong, who was worrying behind the scenes, called Ko Seung-hye aside.

“……Detective, do you know about the serial murder case of the rat?”

“Gutter rat?”

The Gutter Rat serial murder case occurred in Woosung City and other nearby municipalities and was the last confirmed serial murder case in South Korea.

Ko Seung-hye was dazed as if she had been hit on the head by Kang Yun-seong’s words. So why didn’t I think of that?

“Hwang Soo-cheol? “That person was caught, right?”

The culprit of the gutter rat serial murder case, which remained unsolved for several years, was arrested after being unable to control his impulse to kill and killing a student. He was sentenced to life imprisonment and died in prison after suffering from a chronic illness.

“Could it be a copycat?”

“He’s a copycat… But how do you know Hwang Soo-cheol’s murder method?”

The gutter rat serial murder case was an incident that made an uproar across the country in the late 2000s. A rat with a ribbon tied around its neck was left at the scene of the crime, giving it the nickname the “Gutter Rat Serial Murder Case.”

What is different from the incident currently taking place in Wooseong City is that instead of a street rat, it is a stray cat, and the culprit of the street rat serial murder, Hwang Soo-cheol, randomly caught his victims regardless of whether they were old or weak, but now the culprit only targets the elderly and women.

“The rat incident can be found in detail just by looking at the Internet.”

Hwang Soo-cheol’s signature was leaving a rat’s corpse and leaving a distinctive stab wound on the victim’s abdomen. And if you compare the way the victim was lying down and the neat arrangement around the crime scene, it was eerily similar to the current incident.

“I heard that there are many fans of these criminals abroad. “Aren’t there people like that in Korea too?”

Because it was relatively recent, there was a lot of information left on the Internet. What if the crime was planned based on that data?

“And… the first victim came forward the day after Hwang Soo-cheol died.”

“I guess a button was pressed on that.”

The criminal who worshiped Hwang Soo-cheol must have been disappointed that his idol died in prison without being able to overcome his illness. And in the end, rather than worshiping an idol, I may have decided to become Hwang Soo-cheol himself…

Go Seung-hye, who was looking at the screen held out by Kang Yun-seong, narrowed her eyes and looked at him. The sewer rat serial murder case almost remained unsolved, but was solved, so even Go Seung-hye had forgotten about it.

“You keep this to yourself?”

“I… I’m not sure yet…”

Ko Seung-hye sighed when she saw Kang Yun-seong scratching his cheek. I studied criminal psychology and am well-versed in thinking, so why am I passive about asserting my opinions? Is this all because fellow cops teased me for being pretty?

‘The crime patterns are really suspiciously similar.’

Was this the deja vu you felt while investigating the case? Ko Seung-hye blamed herself for not realizing it sooner. She went back to the office and grabbed her outerwear and car keys.

“If I want to catch this guy, I need to know Hwang Soo-cheol first.”

“Where are you going?”

“To someone who knows Hwang Soo-cheol well.”

“Me, Detective Go!”

Kang Yun-seong urgently called out to Ko Seung-hye, but Ko Seung-hye ignored him and headed outside. And the person Go Seung-hye found was Jeong Seok-jun, the professor who appeared in episode 1.

“Of course I remember Hwang Soo-cheol. “I was the last criminal caught.”

“How was it?”

Jeong Seok-jun took a sip of coffee and opened his mouth.

“Hwang Soo-cheol was a person who did not fit the profile of a serial killer. I worked at a mid-sized company and had a harmonious family. Moreover, the reputation of those around him was good. “I had no criminal record.”

“We see the murder case currently taking place in Woosung City as a copycat of Hwang Soo-cheol.”

Ko Seung-hye handed over data related to the case to Jeong Seok-jun. Jeong Seok-jun, who was slowly flipping through it, let out a small groan.

“He’s a copycat… The pattern is suspiciously similar.”

“What do you think? Was he a close acquaintance of Hwang Soo-cheol? Come to think of it, I heard that Hwang Soo-cheol has a son…”

“No, it’s probably not his son.”

“How are you so sure?”

Professor Jeong Seok-jun shakes his head in confidence as soon as he hears Ko Seung-hye’s words. Ko Seung-hye frowned as if she didn’t understand.

“The reason we were able to catch Hwang Soo-cheol was because my son reported it to the police.”

“……is it so?”

“I testified a long time ago that my father was suspicious. If I hadn’t reported it in advance, Hwang Soo-cheol would never have been caught. “I wonder how he must have grown up by now…”

Jeong Seok-jun looked at the sky with eyes filled with regret. It was because he remembered his own mistakes. My son didn’t do anything wrong… but I pushed him too hard.

“No way, I did something wrong to the victim.”

“okay. “That kid.”

This was the opportunity for Jeong Seok-jun to retire from the police force. What would a child who just graduated from high school know? It’s about snitching on my father. Jeong Seok-jun still felt guilty about this because he mustered up the courage to go to the police station and questioned the boy, asking why he had told him only now.

“So what can I do?”

“Please help us.”

Ko Seung-hye, who returned with Professor Seok-jun Jeong, introduced him to her team members.

“Professor Seokjun Jeong, who will be advising on the case.”

“It is an honour. Seniors.”

Jeong Seok-jun was a legendary figure who caught the last serial killer in South Korea. Ko Seung-hye’s team members shook his hand with joy.

However, what caught Jeong Seok-jun’s eye was Kang Yun-seong hiding in the back.

“You are.”

“……hello.”

Kang Yunseong reluctantly bowed his head and said hello.

“It’s been a while.”

You became a police officer. Ko Seung-hye and the team members watched with puzzled eyes as Jeong Seok-jun’s sad expression and Kang Yun-seong avoided eye contact.

“Do you know senior Jeong?”

“Well…”

“We just know each other a little. “Now, since we don’t have time for this, let’s catch the culprit quickly.”

Professor Seok-Jun Jeong quickly changed the topic, and the team members immediately remembered the characteristics of Soo-Cheol Hwang that Seok-Jun Jeong mentioned. Even while speaking, Ko Seung-hye looked alternately at the two people, Jeong Seok-jun, who were conscious of Kang Yun-seong.

“How do you know senior Jeong?”

Ko Seung-hye could not hold back her curiosity and summoned Kang Yun-seong separately.

“Well… Actually, I was going to tell Detective Go.”

“Don’t hesitate and talk quickly.”

After hesitating for a moment, Kang Yun-seong opened his mouth as if he had made up his mind. Still, Ko Seung-hye was a trustworthy person. Although he had a fiery personality, he was so passionate and had a sense of duty about his job that he took the time to investigate.

“You mean Hwang Soo-cheol’s son… That’s me.”

“what?”

Ko Seung-hye’s eyes widen in surprise at the truth she had vomited with difficulty, and the screen changes to show Kang Yun-seong as a child.

“Jinwoo.”

“yes!”

The episode ended with Yoo Yeon-seo looking back energetically at the sound of someone’s voice.

-What is it?

-ㅁㅊ Does Yoo Yeon-seo look like he was in One Seven?

-Are you a child? who is this?

-Is it just because it’s flexible? Isn’t that just a screen effect?

The reaction of viewers who were watching ‘Jewel by Association’ was enthusiastic about Yoo Yeon-seo’s younger appearance at the end.

Even though Yoo Yeon-seo is baby-faced, she stands out too much to play the role of a new high school student. Originally, the sense of discomfort would have been reduced by using a child actor who looked like him or by using adult actors to play all the student roles.

Because of this, there was a lot of talk during the production stage, but it was resolved surprisingly quickly.

“A child actor is good, but is there an actor who can play Yeonseo’s child role?”

“Hmm….”

The setting was that people who saw his face would not easily forget it because his face stood out especially among the works. A child actor who resembled Yoo Yeon-seo could not exist in reality.

“It’s simple.”

“yes?”

Yoo Yeon-seo is also involved in investment and production, so she participated in the production meeting. He calmly listened to the situation and ended it with one word.

“You can spend money. “It’s a pre-production drama anyway.”

“yes?”

“Technology has gotten better these days, but it can be done in post-production, right? “I also like to be immersed in that episode.”

In fact, production costs could be reduced more by using child actors than by using CG effects. But Yu Yeon-seo didn’t need to do that.

“If production costs are insufficient, please tell me.”

“That probably won’t happen.”

Even now, production costs are high enough… The production crew laughed awkwardly.

The production team of ‘Guilty by Association’ decided to touch up Yoo Yeon-seo’s face through post-production and poured money into several CG studios to bring out her subtle facial expressions. And after achieving satisfactory results, it was broadcast.

-Wow, it’s crazyㅠㅠ I can’t believe I’m seeing my actor’s younger self like thisㅠㅠ

-Is his face from his time in One Seven really showing?

-It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Godgi’s appearanceㅠㅜㅠㅜㅠ

-Isn’t there too much discomfort?

Fans of Yoo Yeon-seo were enthusiastic about the unexpectedly young appearance of Yoo Yeon-seo. There was not much material from her time in One Seven when she was a high school student, and she disappeared immediately after not being active for a long time.

‘Jewelry by Association’, which received attention for Yoo Yeon-seo’s younger appearance rather than Kang Yun-seong’s secret past, has finally reached its final episode.
