Photorealistic cinematic still. Captured from a low waist-height observer at the foggy alley mouth looking down a damp corridor, the wet alley pavement occupies the lower frame and dense blue-gray mist fills the upper space. A damp, blue-gray fog envelops the area, illuminated by a dim, sickly gold sodium streetlight blooming through the mist, casting heavy, low-key shadows. In the middle distance, C06O08 in a dark jumper, an adult Korean man at three-quarter angle from the right, and C09O11 in a burgundy coat, an adult Korean woman at three-quarter angle from the left, stand pressed together. C06O08's weight presses forward, pinning C09O11 against a stained utility pole; his mouth is at her neck, teeth visibly biting into the side of her neck in the same tense moment. C09O11 is arched against the pole, her head slackened and fallen backward during the bite, looking off-screen. Both figures appear as heavily compressed dark silhouettes against the bright background, but their body volume is preserved against the dim ambient fill, with a faint dirty-gold rim light tracing C06O08's shoulder and C09O11's backward-tilted jaw and neck contour so the bite remains readable in the wide frame. The utility pole's front curve faces the camera, rising behind and against the figures as a damp, dark, stained vertical spine. The streetlight head points downward toward the couple and slightly toward the camera, causing a flare in the thick mist. The slick, dirty, rain-darkened pavement reflects the streetlight bloom and the couple's dark legs in broken, shallow streaks.

Photorealistic cinematic still. A visceral close-up focusing on a neck and jaw. C09O11 in a burgundy coat, a Korean adult woman, in right profile, head slackened and falling backward into the upper right of the frame, eyes closed, severely injured and limp. Entering from the left edge, C06O08 in a dark jumper, a Korean adult man, in left profile, gazing down with a faint red gleam in his eye, jaw pressed forward as the force initiator. The two are pressed tightly together at a wet utility pole in the alley; his mouth and teeth bite firmly into the damp skin of C09O11's neck, with a sharp, narrow red accent visible at the bite point. A damp, blue-gray fog envelops the tight space, drifting through a diffused, sickly gold sodium streetlight spill falling from above-left. Heavy, low-key blue-gray shadows wrap the skin, cut by the gold edge that creates shallow highlights on the neck. Directly behind the neck, the wet, dark vertical edge of the old damp utility pole forms a soft, out-of-focus background surface.

Photorealistic cinematic still. C01O01 in a grayish-blue hoodie, a Korean woman in her early 20s with a youthful oval face, long natural black hair, and soft facial features, stands in the middle-left foreground in right profile with eyes closed, leaning close from the side of the doorway with her nose almost at the shoulder of C04O05, as if smelling her, while reaching for that shoulder. C04O05 in a gray knit homewear with an apron, a Korean woman in her early 40s with a mature face, dark hair, and soft facial features, occupies the middle-center foreground at a three-quarter angle from the left, her shoulder held still, her eyes fixed on C01O01. Her visible wrist on the same side facing C01O01 hangs relaxed downward below the shoulder and chest area within the wide frame; the sleeve cuff sits diagonally around the wrist without covering a small circle-shaped mark, which is clearly visible, dark, and unusually distinct. They share the tight space of the open door, the scuffed inner doorframe bracketing their torsos vertically. Captured at shoulder height, their upper bodies occupy the frame, with the threshold obliquely visible at the bottom edge. Diffused light passing through the closed window behind them blends with faint kitchen steam, creating pervasive blue-gray shadows and casting a soft warm-gold edge along their shoulders to maintain a quiet, cramped domestic closeness.

Photorealistic cinematic still. Captured at shoulder-height from the side of the aisle. C01O01, Suriyoung, in a dark gray hoodie, a young Korean woman in her 20s, standing inside the brightly lit supermarket in right profile, leaning forward, skin appearing pale under the harsh cold fluorescent lighting, eyes widened with a confused, questioning expression as they stay fixed on the middle-aged woman. Across the shared aisle space, a Korean middle-aged female market employee in worker uniform stands in left profile, one hand resting on the shelf, eyes fixed on C01O01. The interior of a modern supermarket aisle forms a rigid background behind both profiles, illuminated by a cold, blue-gray fluorescent wash. Horizontal product shelves behind and around Suriyoung are fully stocked, orderly, and visually noisy with various retail items featuring noticeable red and gold packaging, front-facing labels and price tags visible in stacked bands. The dull aisle floor runs left-to-right across the lower frame beneath their feet, reflecting a weak green-blue cast.

Photorealistic cinematic still. C01O01, Suriyoung, in a casual blue-gray hoodie, a Korean woman in her early 20s, occupies the middle-center foreground inside a supermarket aisle. Captured at a close front three-quarter left angle, her shoulders are pulled back in a sudden pause. Her youthful oval face, soft facial features, and long natural black hair are sharply in focus, her widened eyes looking off-screen, fixed on an unseen person with a confused, questioning expression. A cold fluorescent wash from an overhead retail fixture, its underside hanging slightly above and behind the camera line, casts hard shadows under her eyes, leaving her skin pale against the muted blue-gray ambient light. The immediate background is an out-of-focus wall of fully stocked, orderly supermarket product shelves; front-facing product labels and price tags are turned toward the camera but blurred into soft horizontal colored bands of visually noisy red and gold packaging, with the narrow side face of a shelf endcap pointing toward the camera along the frame edge.

Photorealistic cinematic still. C01O01 in a blue-gray hooded casual outfit, a youthful Korean woman in her early 20s with long natural black hair, stands in the lower-center foreground at a three-quarter angle from the right, looking up toward the rooftop stairs in the upper-right background. The camera is locked at chest height, holding her full body, including her head and face, and the bicycle frame beside her in the wide view. One hand rests on the bicycle, its wheels and side visible against the ground. At the top of the rooftop stairs in the upper-right background, along her eyeline, the rooftop entrance iron/metal door is visibly half-open, its dark unlit gap just beyond the door edge. Her face is oriented toward that half-open door with a stiff, fearful attention, her tightened mouth and fixed stare readable even within the full-body wide framing. The surrounding courtyard wall and facade enclose the space, bathed in a low-key, dark blue-gray shadow. A weak, sickly gold light spills from an unseen source above the stairs, creating subtle rims along her soft facial features, the half-open metal door edge, and the wet tires, evoking a suspenseful and uncomfortable atmosphere.

Photorealistic cinematic still. C01O01 in a casual hoodie, a Korean woman in her early 20s with a youthful oval face, long natural black hair, and soft facial features, positioned at a three-quarter angle from the left, neck craned forward. She is fixed toward the half-open rooftop entrance iron/metal door just off to the frame edge, watching it with stiff, fearful attention; her mouth is tightened and her stare is rigid. The camera is positioned at face height from the front-left, her head and shoulders occupying the frame. The environment is bathed in a pervasive low-key dark blue-gray shadow, leaving her eyes deeply shadowed. A weak, sickly gold light from an unseen source creates a thin rim tracing the side of her face. [: damp, stained blue-gray wall sitting at a shallow angle directly behind her, compressing the space, with only a soft dark edge of the half-open metal entrance door barely visible at the frame edge angled away into darkness, thin cold mist in the air].

Photorealistic cinematic still. C04O05 in gray knit homewear, a Korean woman in her early 40s with dark hair, rests as a lifeless seated body in the middle-center midground, with a stained parted curtain behind the body in the middle-center background. Facing the camera with her head fallen forward and gaze looking down, her motionless form is framed from a low seated eye level. One stiff, clenched corpse hand is clearly visible on her body within the wide frame, gripping a single creased, crumpled photograph so the hand-and-photo area can be isolated as the zoom’s focal region while still remaining part of the same dead seated body. The interior environment is dominated by cold, low-key blue-gray shadows, establishing a chilling atmosphere that flattens the room. Restrained dark red blood marks trail along the floor toward her, contrasting with the weak ambient spill that casts a faint dirty-gold edge on the curtain folds and the dim bedside wall.

Photorealistic cinematic still. An extreme floor-level insert angled slightly downward. C04, 민숙, the dead Korean mother in her 40s, remains motionless out of view while only her stiff, lifeless hand in a gray knit sleeve occupies the lower-center frame. The rigid, clenched fingers form a cold frame around P09, a single small worn black-and-white photograph crumpled tightly inside her corpse hand and pressed against the floor. The image-bearing face of P09 is partly turned toward the camera, but its creased, crushed surface, deep folds, and dark shadows hide most of the printed content. A faint dirty gold spill illuminates the crumpled paper, contrasting with a suppressed red undertone near the pale skin. The background features the edge of the damp room bed, fading completely into a soft, low-key blue-gray blur via shallow depth of field.

Photorealistic cinematic still. Wide view from the doorway at eye level, looking into an unnaturally pristine and meticulously organized bedroom. Flat, cold blue-gray light washes over the sterile space. The floor is spotless and bare. A made bed sits undisturbed against a clean, unmarked pale wall. The curtain hangs partly open, revealing an empty, tidy space behind it. Near the base of the wall, the clean wall/baseboard and floor-corner clue area are clearly visible in the wide frame: a closed backpack rests on the floor to camera-left, slightly displaced and angled so its front-pocket side is partly visible to camera, while a small clean doll rests to camera-right, still and subtly out of place, its face and torso turned slightly off-axis toward camera. The backpack and doll are separated by a small, distinct visible gap on the floor. The floor and wall/baseboard around both objects are spotless, dry, and unmarked, with no blood visible.

Photorealistic cinematic still. From a tight over-the-desk low position slightly below eye level, P05, a sleek dark smartphone, occupies the lower-center foreground, its lit front face angled slightly upward and glowing with a pale light showing a saved contact number. P05 is held close to the lens by the thrust-forward fingers of C02O03 in a dark field jacket, a Korean early 40s woman; her extended forearm remains visibly connected to the phone-presenting action, leading diagonally back across the frame to her body at the far end of the reach. At a three-quarter angle from the right, C02O03 is partially visible as a tense silhouette in the midground, her chin tightened forward and her brow distinctly furrowed, her fixed serious face readable within the shadow, with eyes locked toward the seated colleague. In the soft out-of-focus background at a three-quarter angle from the left, a Korean 30s man in a brown leather jacket leans toward the screen, looking down at P05. A cluttered and worn shared desk edge horizontally crosses the lower frame, remaining a clear spatial boundary between the foreground hand and the background figure. [L12B02: A dimly lit police office interior bathed in a cold, low-key fluorescent-blue wash, casting muted, damp-looking blue-gray shadows over subdued architectural shapes.]

Photorealistic cinematic still. C02O03 in a dark gray jacket, a Korean woman in her early 40s, occupies the center frame from the chest up at a three-quarter angle from the left. Her arm remains extended forward from the phone-presenting action, leading out below the frame as if still thrust across the desk toward the off-screen seated colleague. Her chin is tightened and angled forward, maintaining a rigid, urgent posture with a distinctly furrowed brow and a fixed, serious stare directed toward that seated colleague off-screen. Low-key fluorescent light sculpts her brow in muted blue-gray, leaving a narrow warm glint on her cheekbone. Only the top edge of the desk is faintly implied at the bottom frame boundary, angled away, preserving it as the lower spatial boundary between her and the off-screen colleague. The background dissolves into a dimly lit office interior bathed in a cold fluorescent-blue wash, rendering partitions into soft, subdued blue-gray shapes with a small defocused red-gold status light visible in the distance.
