Hunter with a Scalpel – K-drama Episode 15 Recap & Review
Episode 15 Episode 15 of Hunter with a Scalpel begins with a flashback to the past. We see that even after Jo-kyun pushes her, Eun-seo is injured but alive! Jo-kyun tries to drag her to the edge of the cliff but Se-eun stands in his way. Eun-seo uses the opportunity to push Jo-kyun instead and he goes over the cliff, falling all the way down to the rocks. At present, Se-hyun visits Jung-hyun in his hospital room and asks to help with the investigation but he says she's done enough. Jung-hyun then gets a call from Chang-jin which sends him rushing to the police station. Director Kim Jin-rae is still not convinced that Se-hyun isn't the serial killer. Jung-hyun tries to convince him to go after Jo-kyun. Elsewhere, Jo-kyun calls Se-eun inside the van. The next thing we see is Jo-kyun walking out with her bloody uniform. The detectives receive the package of clothes at the police station and send it to the forensic lab, where Dr Cheon accepts it. She takes the clothes to Yang Joon-kyung and then calls her out for delaying the investigation on purpose. She threatens to reveal the truth about the Nam Seung-hyeop case which sends Joon-kyung rushing to see Kim Myung-kwan. But she realises that he's promoting someone else over her despite promising her the position. This seems to be enough to change Joon-kyung's mind and she doesn't tell Kim about Dr Cheon's threats. Jung-hyun informs Se-hyun about the clothes. She then reveals that Jo-kyun came to the hospital and threatened Se-eun. She insists on going out and looking for Se-eun but Jung-hyun forbids it. He even tells the guards not to let Se-hyun out of the room. A flashback then shows Se-eun and Eun-seo trekking through the woods after Jo-kyun's fall over the cliff. But Eun-seo is weak from her head injury and she soon collapses and passes away. At present, Se-hyun continues to feel guilty about Se-eun. A nurse brings a bouquet of flowers, saying someone dropped them off. In the accompanying envelope, Se-hyun finds a clue from her father with an address. The detectives look for Se-eun around the site where the clothes were found but to no avail. The forensic team then informs them that the blood on her clothes was adult blood, which means Se-eun could still be alive! We then see Jo-kyun leave his white truck and drag a large blue drum through the woods. Presumably, Se-eun is inside it. At the hospital, Se-hyun creates a distraction and sneaks out in a nurse's uniform, taking some drugs with her on the way. Soon, the detectives meet the woman at the grocery store who had sold Se-eun some bread. She gives them a direction which leads them to Jo-kyun's hideout. Inside is the dead body of the journalist from earlier. Meanwhile, Jo-kyun meets with the man who's arranging his passage on the ship. He says there's only one ticket available and not two as Jo-kyun had requested. When the man refuses to help, Jo-kyun kills him as well in order to 'make space' for him and Se-hyun. In a final scene, we see the blue drum in the middle of a forest with little Se-eun desperately crying out for help. The Episode Review Hunter with a Scalpel Episode 15 continues the chase for Jo-kyun. Se-hyun's decision not to tell the detectives when he came to visit her is still a point of confusion. That was the perfect opportunity to get him but she doesn't even try. And now everybody is running helter-skelter trying to find him. If you can move past that, this one is a fairly engaging penultimate episode. Jo-kyun is fixated on getting Se-hyun to come with him but that also seems like the thing that will bring him down. Se-eun is very much alive but being stuck in that drum in the middle of nowhere is almost a worse fate. As Jung-hyun and Se-hyun rush to save her, the question of her survival remains. There are still a few gaps in the past as well, particularly around Eun-seo's mother, Lee Jung-mi. Here's hoping the finale offers up some answers.

Hunter with a Scalpel – K-drama Episode 14 Recap & Review
Episode 14 Episode 14 of Hunter with a Scalpel begins with the press conference. Se-hyun describes how, from the age of five to ten, she was forced to assist her father in his murders. She lists all the cases and even describes Se-eun, who she wants to save. Yoon Jo-kyun watches the press conference and then looks at Se-eun suspiciously. At the hospital, the detectives share a warm reunion with Jung-hyun. They discuss how Se-hyun's confession isn't concrete proof and she could still be an accomplice to Jo-kyun. But Jung-hyun seems to believe her. Meanwhile, Se-eun considers the watch that Se-hyun gave her and tries to charge it. Se-hyun then visits Jung-hyun. Jung-hyun has her notebook and Se-hyun describes her happy days with Eun-seo. She explains how they ran away and mentions that Eun-seo died, although she's vague on the details. She then collapsed and was found by mountain climbers, who sent her to the orphanage. Jung-hyun then asks her to not finish things alone but to let him help her. Jo-kyun then enters the hospital and puts on a doctor's coat to disguise himself. As Se-hyun is leaving Jung-hyun's room, Jo-kyun pulls her aside. He gives her one last chance to run away with him. If not, he will kill Se-eun as well as Se-hyun's mother. Se-hyun is about to take his hand when a guard suddenly shows up and Jo-kyun leaves. However, a reporter recognises him and decides to follow him. At the police station, Jin-woo tells the others that Se-hyun has passed a lie detector test and also has an alibi for the first two murders. The detectives then discuss Jo-kyun's route and that he is probably going to escape via ship at Yeongpo. Meanwhile, the reporter follows Jo-kyun but eventually loses sight of him. He then sees Se-eun returning from a grocery store and follows her all the way to their hideout. Unfortunately, Jo-kyun takes him by surprise and kills him. A flashback shows Eun-seo and Se-eun running in the forest when Se-eun suddenly stops. Jo-kyun catches up to them and pushes Eun-seo, who falls and hits her head on a rock. The Episode Review Hunter with a Scalpel Episode 14 continues the chase to catch Yoon Jo-kyun and offers a lot of shifting in the process. Se-hyun gets a chance to tell Jung-hyun the honest truth and the other detectives are finally on the right track, working to catch Jo-kyun. Se-hyun's plan to lure Jo-kyun is a good one but when he does turn up, she doesn't alert the detectives. So, what was the point of the press conference? It's confusing and doesn't make sense, considering what a big deal this entire plan was in the previous episode. The rest of the episode fares a lot better. Flashbacks give us more insight into the past and what happened to Eun-seo and Se-eun. We also see more of what's happening at Jo-kyun and Se-eun's end, which offers more thrills and tension than the police side of things. With only two episode to go though, the series will need to start wrapping things up soon. Previous Episode Next Episode Expect A Full Season Write-Up When This Season Concludes!
