On August 8, 2004, a man with a weapon broke into a villa with a grandmother and a young grandson in Banghwa-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul. He is a murder suspect, Lee Hak-man, with the highest reward ever paid. After brutally killing Detective Sergeant Shim Jae-ho and Constable Lee Jae-hyun with a knife and running away, they enter a family home a week later and start staging a hostage crisis, how did this terrible tragedy begin?

Lee Hak-man, who threatened his girlfriend by using violence, killed the police with a hoe knife as soon as the police were dispatched after receiving a report and fled. Lee Hak-man, who later hid in the mountains and came down without enduring hunger, penetrated the residential area. He threatened again with a machete in his grandmother's and grandchildren's home. In a flashpoint, the grandmother "Do you want me to boil noodles?," he says, displaying his excellent wit.

After reassuring the criminal with a bowl of warm noodles, the grandmother sneaked into the room and called her son to inform him of the situation, and Lee Ji-hye exclaimed "The grandmother who responded calmly in that tense situation is amazing" and Ahn Hyun-mo expressed anger "Is it a human being that Lee Hak-man committed a murder at the time of arrest without thinking about the police and their families who were victimized unfairly?"




Meanwhile, on the show, Shim Jae-ho, who died while arresting Lee Hak-man, and Lee Dae-woo, a fellow detective of the late police officer Lee Jae-hyun, (then the 4th team of the Seobu Police Station / current chief of the Seodaemun Police Station), will appear to vividly testify about the situation at the time of the incident, and Lee Kwang-min, a psychiatrist, will appear to analyze the background of the criminal's heart melting in a bowl of noodles.

Sad story of killing two cops horribly and taking hostage <>Do you want me to boil noodles?" - The murder of a violent squad detective can be found on KBS2 at 9:45 p.m. on Tuesday, April 22nd.
