The December 5 episode started with park ranger team leader Park Il Hae and Jung Goo Young leaving Seo Yi Kang in the middle of the woods after receiving an SOS call from the central station.
Although Il Hae was hesitant to leave his fellow ranger alone, Yi Kang insisted they check the nearby area.
As soon as the two left, Yi Kang felt strange, so she grabbed her taser from her bag for protection.
On the other hand, the spirit of Kang Hyun Jo roaming on the mountain since his accident saw Yi Kang left alone in the forest. He attempted to communicate with his senior and finally got reunited.
"Why have you been like this? Left alone like a fool unable to leave," she said, asking Hyun Jo about the incident that happened in 2019, which resulted in his coma.
A flashback featured Hyun Jo chasing a man he suspected to be a serial killer, but the hiker insisted he was not the suspect. Instead, he showed the park ranger a text message from police officer Kim Woong Soon he wanted to see him at the Black Mountain village.
Here, Kang Hyun Jo learned Kim Woong Soon was among the residents of the mountain before it got demolished. He thought that the police officer might be the suspect he had been looking for.
