While A-hee is interrogating the criminal, she gets a call from her boss and Dae-sung gets a call from his mother. She and her neighbour, the owner of Geumsang Real Estate Agency found a dead body in the same apartment where the previous woman died. Dae-sung and A-hee reach there with the ‘five dollars’ criminal. The police detective arrives late and asks Dae-sung why he is always present at the crime site.

The police have been investing the criminal where he confesses to having kept choco pies at the women’s door but it was only to scare them so that they will stop shopping in MS Mart. The police charge him with stalking but since they find his alibi at the time of the murder, he will most likely be freed from the suspicion. He wants to avenge Dae-sung and his mom for putting him in jail but he doesn’t know that Dae-sung’s life has completely changed because of him and he has become anxious.

Dae-sung had seen the Saeng Sun guy, Kang Sung-yoon running away from the murder site and he had also bought stockings from the mart. After Dae-sung spots Sung-yoon checking out a girl and asking her if she lives alone, Dae-sung’s suspicion increases so he informs A-hee. He spies into Sung-yoon’s locker and finds a woman’s bra in his pouch. He almost gets caught by Sung-yoon but manages to sneak out with Sung-yoon’s house key.

Dae-sung breaks into Sung-yoon’s house and finds women’s clothing in his wardrobe. He informs A-hee right away but she says that it isn’t valid since it can’t be counted as evidence. While talking with A-hee, he sees a sweater in Sung-yoon’s wardrobe that matches the recent murder victim. A-hee tells him to not touch it and leave his house but Sung-yoon arrives home at the same time. Dae-sung gets out of the window and understanding his situation, A-hee comes to his rescue.

The Killer’s Shopping List Episode 3 Review

The ‘five dollars’ criminal is out of suspicion of murder for now. A-hee and Dae-sung are suspecting Sung-yoon who has mysteriously dressed up as a woman and has many women’s clothing in his wardrobe. The police detective has raised doubt about Dae-sung while investigating. However, a different man has been following the female employee of MS Mart. There are many suspects in this case with no clear way to single out anyone.
