THE PLACES, CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS

AND CASES DEPICTED ARE FICTIONAL

Sir, can we talk?

Let's talk.

Stop being stubborn and just sign the form.

Forget everything and start over with Sol.

JIRISAN CABLE CAR INSTALLMENT AGREEMENT

PRESIDENT YANG GEUN-TAK

How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not leaving!

This is where I was born and raised.

I'm going to protect this place till the end.

So don't ever come back.

Dad.

Can't we move off of the mountain?

What are you saying?

Did someone tell you to say that to me?

No. It's just that if we move, we'd be closer to my school.

And you wouldn't fight with the others anymore.

The others are wrong.

I'm right. Understand?

Why can't we hear the bees?

Sir.

Let's clean this up first.

Let's clean up--

Go away.

Go away!

Get out. I said get out!

KIM JAE-KYUNG

No. No.

No. No. No.

You hear that, right?

What?

You hear that sound, right? The sound of bees flying!

Look.

They came back to life.

Dad…

They came back to life.

The bees came back to life.

The bees came back to life.

The bees came back to life.

The bees came back to life.

I need to make more beehives.

Dad, what's wrong?

-Dad, what's wrong? -Let go!

PRESIDENT YANG GEUN-TAK

Jin-ok keeps saying

we went too far because we sprayed pesticide on the beehives.

But she placed the dead raccoon in the well.

She's no better.

Ung-sun's dad just keeps drinking too. That makes me nervous.

If he confesses to the hit-and-run, we might get caught too.

Damn it.

Make sure everyone keeps their mouths shut.

If they found out what happened to Sol's mother,

forget the compensation.

We'll all end up in jail.

You look like you saw a ghost.

Did you hear what we said?

Good. You should go.

Go away!

Go away!

My ears-- I feel like they're going to tear apart.

The bees are so loud.

Save me!

Save me!

Save me!

JIRISAN CABLE CAR COMMISSION

JIRISAN CABLE CAR INSTALLMENT AGREEMENT

What did you just say?

They called off the project?

That's what I said.

We have the site.

We even have the agreement of the people on the site.

But the government won't give us the permit.

What?

Don't worry about it.

I'm not one to give up so easily.

Next time,

I'm going to do whatever it takes to successfully install the cable cars.

-Wait, Il-man. -Whatever.

-Give us our compensation. -Okay, okay.

Give it!

The compensation. Give me my money!

-I will. -Give me my money!

-Il-man. -Give it to us!

Give me my money. You lied to us.

Give it to me.

The money--

-Give me my money. -Wait, wait. Okay, okay.

-Okay, okay. -Give me my money.

Wait a minute.

Give me my money.

Give me my money. Give me my money.

Push it.

Okay, lift it.

Be careful.

How did our village end up like this?

It's wise to leave when the National Park Service is offering us compensation.

The one who faked the accidents

to kill people on the mountain was…

you.

You think I killed people?

I don't know what you're talking about.

I know it's you.

When the day breaks,

I'm going to tell the police everything I know.

You have evidence?

Why did you come here?

If I were the murderer, I would not let you live.

Why did you come alone to such a dangerous place?

Do you want me to kill you?

This place isn't like the mountain.

There are many security cameras, and your cell phone can be tracked.

If I kill you,

there will be evidence that I'm the murderer.

But you don't have any evidence.

Did you come here to make evidence?

I-gang.

Do you think I would kill you here if I were the killer?

Hello?

Hey, Gu-yeong. It's me, Sol.

I-gang is at my place.

Could you take her home?

Yes, sir.

Tell the police tomorrow.

Not sure if they'll believe you, though.

What if Officer Kim isn't the murderer?

What if it's Kim Sol?

GYEAM HIDEOUT

A place where visitors barely come but the murderer knows well.

A hideout that Sol knew about.

An old hideout that was used long ago.

Pieces of evidence that the culprit took from the Geomeundarigol shelter.

That's what I have to find.

You okay? Everything good?

What about the tracker?

I put it in his backpack.

He thinks I'm going to the cops.

He seemed confident,

but he'll try to get rid of evidence just in case.

We can't miss that opportunity.

JIRISAN HAEDONG VISITOR CENTER

What happened?

You were right. It was the mountain.

Near Deokseoryeong.

Got it.

I think we're getting close.

-Is that Sol? -Yes.

Be careful. He can't know that you're following him.

This is our last chance. We have to get the evidence.

DETENTION CENTER

Thank you for your cooperation.

You're not completely cleared of the charges yet.

Please refrain from traveling far.

And keep your cell phone on at all times.

I understand.

Dad.

Hi, Sae-nyeok.

I can't believe you're making me come to jail now.

That Jirisan-- I'm sick of it.

You dedicated your whole life to it.

But they accused you of murder. It's ridiculous.

Dad, isn't it time you quit now?

You did everything you could.

Come home with me now.

Sae-nyeok,

I promise you that…

this will be…

my last time up on Jirisan.

Thanks for this.

Damn it.

Wait.

Byeorisup is in that direction.

-It's a foggy area. -Let's go.

He's somewhere around here.

This way.

JEONG GU-YEONG

What happened?

We lost him.

What do you mean?

The punk knew the tracker was in his bag.

He led us this way on purpose.

He couldn't have gone far.

You can't lose him. You must find him!

What's going on?

We don't see him.

We don't see him. He's gone.

It's Sol. Sol is the murderer.

Il-hae and Gu-yeong followed him, but they lost him in the mountain.

We have to find him before the evidence is gone.

Captain, we have to find Sol.

Gu-yeong, Il-hae, switch the frequency to the main channel.

Last known location?

Byeorisup in Deokseoryeong.

Haedong Station calling all rangers.

Distress call from Deokseoryeong.

The missing person is a national park ranger…

Kim Sol.

He was last seen at Byeorisup in Deokseoryeong.

He couldn't have gone far.

Search within a three-kilometer radius around Byeorisup.

It's probably a bedrock area.

Somewhere with a cave, like Geomeundarigol shelter.

It's likely that it's the bedrock south or northwest of Byeorisup.

We're closest. We'd find him first.

Let's pretend we're looking for a missing person.

He's somewhere around here.

This way.

We found traces of someone heading northwest.

We'll start searching there.

You found it.

Even after all that happened, you stayed on the mountain to catch me?

I knew it. Ghosts are real.

I kept telling people, but no one believed me.

You're the murderer.

That's right.

I killed all of them.

Why did you kill all those people?

Because they didn't remember.

They had forgotten…

about what happened back then.

I didn't plan on killing anyone at first.

Actually, I was going to kill myself.

That sound I heard as a child.

The ghosts refused to leave me alone.

I attempted suicide several times…

but people saved me every time.

I thought if I tried on the mountain,

if it were on the mountain,

I thought no one would be able to find me.

So I brought a yogurt mixed with pesticide.

Hello.

Can you help me?

I think I'm lost.

I didn't recognize him at first.

I figured I'd save someone's life before I took my own.

Your hometown was Geomeundarigol in Jirisan?

Yes.

Why do you ask?

KIM HYUN-SU

Kim Hyun-su?

You're Hyun-su?

Do I know you?

I'm Sol, Kim Sol.

Kim Sol?

-Beehive Sol? -Yeah.

Wow, Sol. How many years has it been?

It's so good to see you. How are you?

-Good. -I can't believe I ran into you here.

Baektogol, Dolmujiteo, is that way.

Sol, thanks so much.

Can I have your number?

I'll call you when I'm discharged from service.

How is your father doing?

I'd love to see him again.

I really liked him when we were kids.

Sol?

Sol?

What's wrong?

Here.

You must be tired. Drink this on the way.

Thanks.

No one thought it was murder.

They all thought it was an accident.

The mountain was on my side.

KIM SOL

Eventually, I became a ranger

and returned to the mountain.

It wasn't hard to convince Se-uk.

KIM KYUNG-HEE

He was living in hell on earth, like I was.

That's how we killed them:

one by one.

Before I knew it,

I didn't hear the bees anymore.

It was the same with Ung-sun. He had no idea what his father had done.

But he dared to come to me to investigate the flood incident.

So I threatened to expose who Se-uk's father killed by hit-and-run.

He looked helpless because he couldn't do anything.

Thanks to him, I was able to fool you.

The mountain…

is not on your side.

The mountain…

wanted to punish you.

That's why it showed me…

you and Lee Se-uk killing people.

When I found that sign by Sangsuribawi,

everyone was still alive.

How did you find this?

I'm Kim Sol from the Culture Resources research.

That's why it showed it to me.

I met you because of that sign.

The mountain was telling me that you were the murderer.

I should have recognized you then.

I don't know what you're talking about.

But ultimately, you couldn't catch me.

Which means the mountain is on my side.

No.

The mountain is on our side.

You will be punished in the end.

Everyone who has seen me…

all died.

Stop talking nonsense.

If the mountain is really on your side…

then why don't you stop me?

I kept this to remind me of all the things they did.

But I guess I have no choice.

No. No.

Stop!

TERMINALLY ILL PATIENT DIAGNOSIS

GANG HYEON-JO, INTERNAL BLEEDING DUE TO INJURY

WITHDRAWAL OF LIFE SUPPORT CONSENT FORM

GANG OH-HYEON, FATHER LEE HYEON-SUK, MOTHER

What's that?

Captain, we spotted black smoke two kilometers northwest of Byeorisup.

It's all over.

Everything inside the cave is on fire.

There is barely any trace of evidence left.

No.

This can't be.

It can't end this way.

I-gang. I-gang!

Too many people have died.

Da-won died, and Hyeon-jo risked his life to catch him.

It can't end this way.

There has to be something around the cave where he burned the evidence.

Hyeon-jo.

It's Hyeon-jo.

That's the way at the top of Bidam Cliff.

Why is he going that way?

I heard about Sangsuribawi.

How he saved someone for the first time there.

It's Sangsuribawi on Bidam Cliff.

It's where we first saw the sign.

He's going to leave a sign.

Sol knows our rendezvous point,

so Hyeon-jo's trying to leave a sign elsewhere.

Okay, I'll send the rangers there.

All the rangers went to Deokseoryeong.

It'll take them two hours to get to Bidam Cliff.

We don't have time.

I-gang.

Let's go up the mountain.

Be careful.

Careful.

Hyeon-jo.

You okay?

Seo I-gang.

Hyeon-jo left this?

Seo I-gang, get it together!

Only you know what this means.

It's not the mountain.

It's Haedong Police Station.

It's the police station.

Does he mean Ung-sun?

Hyeon-jo was suspicious of Ung-sun, but he already told me that.

He's not telling me Ung-sun is the murderer.

It's about the last evidence Hyeon-jo left behind.

It must be really important.

Haedong Police Station?

I came to ask you something. Is this it?

I don't know.

-There was a car accident over there. -What?

KIM UNG-SUN

That cell phone?

Se-uk?

Hey, Officer Park.

This again? What's wrong with you rangers?

-It's really important. -That doesn't matter. You can't do this!

It won't take long. I mean it.

It really won't take long.

Please have cyber forensics analyze this phone.

-But why? -Please. It's important.

It could be a key piece of evidence to a murder case.

DAMSUNG POLICE STATION

KOREAN CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION

Go and call for backup.

-Hurry up. -Yes, sir!

What happened? Did you get something?

DIGITAL FORENSICS ANALYSIS

TEXT MESSAGE ANALYSIS

I killed Kim Jin-deok on the mountain today.

LEE JONG-GU IS NEXT. KILL GEUM-RYE.

PUT THE YOGURT I GAVE YOU BEHIND THE BULLET TREE.

YOU DO YOUR JOB.

Police. Is Mr. Kim Sol here?

Anyone inside? Mr. Kim, are you there?

Mr. Kim, come on out!

Police!

-Hello. -You from the National Park Service?

You sure the suspect ran to the mountain?

His car was found here.

It looks like he ran to the mountain.

Could you help us find him?

Of course.

JIRISAN HAEDONG VISITOR CENTER

You've all ruined everything.

You don't know what's important, but you claim to protect the mountain.

Do you know what the mountain wants?

For all of you to disappear.

Hikers, herb harvesters, rangers--

It wants to get rid of all of you.

Why do you think floods, accidents and fires happen every year?

It's because it wants to kill you all.

Just you wait.

I'll kill you on the mountain too.

So you can be by your grandmother's side.

Was it you that killed my grandma?

Didn't you know?

How could you kill… someone who had nothing to do with this?

I did it all on behalf of the mountain.

I was going to kill you on the mountain you love so much.

If you don't like that, fine.

I'll kill you right here.

The mountain told you to kill people?

No, a mountain is just a mountain.

You did it because you're insane.

You're nothing but a madman!

No.

This is what the mountain wants.

1 YEAR LATER

CHEONGHEOBU

One, two, three.

Came out well, right?

Hold on.

Can you look a little sad?

Yang-seon…

You trust me, right?

Yes.

Whenever I meet your mother or you,

I always feel like I'm not good enough.

But if you're willing to cheer me on a little longer,

I believe I can pass the promotion exam to become a team leader

and make you proud.

You really are a fool.

They say if you kiss here, your love will last forever.

MR. JEONG GU-YEONG, YOU HAVE PASSED YOUR PROMOTION EXAM.

How have you been?

JEONG GU-YEONG, TEAM LEADER KOREA NATIONAL PARK SERVICE

Sorry this is so late.

It's a surprise gift.

I'll be back.

JEONG GU-YEONG, TEAM LEADER KOREA NATIONAL PARK SERVICE

Hello.

Take this before you work.

For me?

Yes, it's healthy for you.

I respectfully decline. Thanks.

Sir?

What the…

Why wouldn't you take it?

JEONG GU-YEONG, TEAM LEADER

-Hey. -Damn it.

Why did it take you so long to patrol the restricted areas?

You're even lazier as a team leader.

I'm speaking to you as the captain.

CAPTAIN

You need to come to your senses.

I'm a team leader, and you still nag at me.

I find it quite mysterious.

How did you pass the promotion exam?

Forget it. Don't you have new-hire interviews today?

Are those going well?

Not sure. That's not what captains do.

Got to take a leak, Captain.

-Okay. Be quick on your feet. -Sir.

KOREA NATIONAL PARK SERVICE

INTERVIEWER

Why did you apply for this job?

I'm not sure

if I qualify for this job.

But…

if you'll have me,

I want to become a ranger,

so I can give back what I once received.

Are you still afraid of the mountain?

I was afraid of it too.

But…

I learned that a mountain is just a mountain.

However,

we all have our own mountains in us.

Some people climb the mountain to live,

and some climb it to die.

It doesn't matter why they climbed that mountain.

We are there…

to protect those people.

If you feel indebted, you have to let go.

A mountain is just a mountain.

JIRISAN HAEDONG VISITOR CENTER

Gu-yeong.

Hey, Gu-yeong.

Wake up.

Wake up quickly. Everyone at Mujin Station is ready to go.

We need to hurry.

I'm so tired.

-So tired. -Wake up!

So tired.

Get up.

Damn it, I'm so tired.

By the way, happy New Year.

I'm dying.

My neck hurts because of this…

All right.

-Where's I-gang? -She's almost here.

Hey, there.

Let's go.

Thank you.

Wait for me.

Your lucky day, huh?

Can you carry me this time?

We have to hurry.

Hey, what time did you leave?

BEWARE SLIPPERY GROUND

THE SPIRIT OF THE KOREAN PEOPLE BEGINS HERE.

THE SPIRIT OF THE KOREAN PEOPLE BEGINS HERE.

-Look at that. -Hold on.

Today's sun is the same exact one as tomorrow's sun.

It's nothing special.

Be careful.

-What? -Ma'am.

-Back up please. -Step back please.

Step back please.

Sorry.

You'll hurt yourself. Please step back. Step--

What?

I know you know better.

What? I never got to get a good look at it.

Let me look at the sunrise with my daughter, damn it.

Step back. Please step back.

Back up, please.

Come on. It's dangerous. You can see it from over there.

Please move back and look.

Please step back.

-Come on. -Step back.

You're going to fall.

Where? Where?

-Over there. Over there. -Why can't we see from here?

Excuse me. Please move back.

Excuse me. Please step back a little.

Really? It's coming up from there.

Yeah.

-Where? -Goodness.

I-gang.

I was going to call you.

Hyeon-jo…

is breathing on his own.

He's being treated in a non-intensive care unit.

All his vitals are returning to normal.

The sun is rising!

Happy New Year!

-Happy New Year! -Happy New Year!

-Happy New Year! -Happy New Year!

One, two, three.

Thank you.

-Can you take our picture too? -Yes.

Ready?

One, two, three.

-Here you go. -Thank you.

You don't see things anymore?

No.

I don't see anything now.
