In the previous 9th episode, Tae-soo deduced that the real culprit behind the serial murders was the owner of the runaway family’s dorm, Kim Sung-hee (played by Choi Yoo-hwa). However, there was no evidence, and the tension was heightened when Ha-bin, the daughter, was pointed out as the suspect in the murder of Lee Soo-hyun (played by Song Ji-hyun), who was the start of all the incidents. As Ha-bin‘s murder plan, which he had predicted would be investigated by the police, was revealed, the police were convinced that Ha-bin was the culprit.
