The truth finally begins to surface as Lee Tang confronts the terrifying realization that his actions were never entirely his own. After narrowly escaping Song Chon’s escalating violence, Tang finds himself caught between guilt, fear, and a desperate need to reclaim control over his life. But escaping the shadows of his past is far more complicated than he imagined.
As Tang pieces together unsettling clues, he discovers that every “coincidental” encounter may have been the result of a deeper, hidden force at work—one that has been silently guiding his path from the beginning. This discovery pushes him toward a dangerous crossroads: accept his role in the bloodshed or uncover the truth behind the manipulation.
Meanwhile, Detective Jang Nan-gam makes a breakthrough that reshapes the entire investigation. A pattern emerges that links the victims, the criminal underworld, and Tang himself—revealing a sinister network that profits from the chaos. Nan-gam realizes he is no longer chasing a lone killer but unraveling a conspiracy far more complex and deadly.
As secrets crack open and alliances shift, Tang must decide whether to fight back or surrender to the fate laid out for him. One wrong move could cost him his freedom—or his life.
Episode 8 intensifies the mystery, pulling Tang closer to the heart of a conspiracy that redefines everything he thought he knew about justice, destiny, and himself.
