Episode description
In South Korea, one of the most closely watched societies in the world, almost every murder is solved.
Almost.
Fifteen years ago, in a secure high-rise outside Seoul, a murderer walked away unseen.
This episode revisits the 2010 killing of an elderly woman in her spacious 14th-floor apartment home, a case that even pervasive surveillance failed to solve.
