On the September 12 broadcast of the SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Flex X Cop Season 2" (hereinafter "Flex X Cop 2"), Yu Sung-won was shown brutally murdering Joo Hye-ra's junior colleague.
Earlier that day, the Violent Crimes Unit 1 arrested the culprit behind the Kim Young-hwan murder case. It was revealed that the culprit had committed the murder at Yu Sung-won's instigation, causing deep shock.
The culprit knew that Yu Sung-won was the one who commissioned the murder and blackmailed him accordingly. In response, Yu Sung-won disclosed everything to Jung Tae-sun and asked for help. Consequently, Jung Tae-sun sent someone to administer drugs to the person who murdered Kim Young-hwan, causing their death.
As Violent Crimes Unit 1 vainly lost the suspect, a large delivery arrived for Joo Hye-ra. Inside was none other than the body of Joo Hye-ra's junior, Jung Min-jae.
Jung Min-jae had lost contact while tailing Yu Sung-won and was found dead. Overcome with guilt, Joo Hye-ra tortured herself. She then went straight to find Yu Sung-won and demanded to know why he killed him.
Yu Sung-won maintained a brazen face, asking, "Who died, though?" Joo Hye-ra retorted, "You think you're perfect, don't you? You think you left no trace even after killing five people? You left a long tail this time. Moving the body, calling a truck, sending it to me why would you go that far? Were you scared? Did you feel the terror of getting caught soon?"
However, Yu Sung-won replied, "I am not someone someone like you can understand." He then revealed a new torso, saying, "I'm working on a new piece of art right now. Want to see it?" It turned out to be Jung Min-jae's torso, driving Joo Hye-ra into an uncontrollable fit of rage.
Jin Yi-soo stopped Joo Hye-ra, prompting Yu Sung-won to taunt, "Oh brother, Team Leader Joo has lost her mind. Are you going to trust a woman like this?" In response, Jin Yi-soo drew attention by telling him, "Shut your mouth."
With only circumstantial evidence against Yu Sung-won and no concrete proof, Joo Hye-ra and Jin Yi-soo began an interrogation to extract a confession from him.
Yet Yu Sung-won refused to tell the truth. He continually pressed Jin Yi-soo, asking when he would realize that they were cut from the same cloth.
To this, Jin Yi-soo provoked him by saying, "You must have mistaken us for being similar, but I'm different. I had a mother who cherished me. You didn't have a mother like that, did you? That's why you're completely broken, beyond repair."
He continued, "Did you run to your mother out of fear when Kim Young-hwan died and Cho Pil-goo was caught? Did you beg for help? From a mother who despises you."
Shaken, Yu Sung-won deflected the pressure from Joo Hye-ra, who demanded a confession, by mocking her: "Why do you keep telling me I killed someone? Why would I kill that person? Did that person trail and monitor me? Because of a foolish senior who believes I'm a killer? If that's not why I'm annoyed, I have no reason to kill him. Team Leader Joo, your expression is great right now. Do you want to be my model?"
Right at that moment, Jung Tae-sun appeared alongside the police station chief. The chief sent Yu Sung-won back. In response, Joo Hye-ra confronted Jung Tae-sun, saying, "Your son is a killer. He has killed five people. You know that, don't you? As his mother, you couldn't possibly not know. He is going to keep killing. This isn't something you can just cover up."
Jung Tae-sun provoked her further with an infuriating remark: "You have no manners and no fear. People like that don't die a natural death, so watch yourself." Ultimately, the chief excluded Joo Hye-ra from the investigation, raising curiosity about how Violent Crimes Unit 1, minus Joo Hye-ra, will resolve this case.
