["Creep" by Radiohead plays]

[Chae-ni] Eun Chae-ni, age 27.

Definitely a bit of a train wreck

with a limited education.

♪ You're just like an angel… ♪

Getting a job is nearly impossible.

♪ Your skin makes me cry… ♪

And to top it all off…

-[man] Hm? Oh no. -♪ You float like a feather ♪

♪ In a beautiful world… ♪

-[Chae-ni] What if I get another surgery? -[doctor] Hm?

Would that not work?

Well, it's just…

Uh… [exhales]

Due to the severity of your heart failure,

your body wouldn't be able to handle it.

So, am I…

really gonna die?

♪ What the hell am I doing here? ♪

♪ I don't belong… ♪

[Chae-ni] A heart that could stop at any second.

♪ I don't care if it hurts… ♪

[man 1] If you don't believe in God, you will receive the mark of the beast.

If you receive the mark of the beast, you will go to hell.

Seek salvation, everyone!

[Chae-ni] There's no escape.

Nothing about my sad little life is ever gonna change.

A life with an all-too-predictable ending.

Find your salvation.

♪ When I'm not around… ♪

Find your salvation.

Once you receive your salvation, you'll be granted eternal life.

-You must receive salvation. -[music stops]

The apocalypse will happen on December 31st, 1999.

By "the apocalypse…"

[evangelists sing]

…you mean the end of the world, don't ya?

Yes, that's right. But don't you worry about it.

The blessed will be granted eternal life.

So, God, as powerful as he is, can't just save everyone beforehand?

Pardon?

All the people who had the nerve to die before the apocalypse are screwed now?

Why can't God

bless all those people in advance?

Or is that not how it works because God doesn't do advances?

Or, I don't know, he can move the apocalypse later?

Uh, well, my dear, there isn't anything we can do about God's will.

-So what do I do, huh? -[weakly] ♪ You will be saved ♪

I actually really wanna see the apocalypse. How about that?

How can I die without seeing it? It's not fair!

How am I supposed to close my eyes now, huh?

-[woman] Hm. -Take it!

You have a blessed day.

What, am I asking too much? Huh?

What, did I ask to live forever? Huh?

I just want to live long enough so I can see the end of the world!

Is that too much to ask for?

It's not!

I want to see it! Show me! Show me! Show…

[breathes heavily]

[breathes heavily]

I just want to be able to see…

humanity's downfall.

Why is it

you won't let me see that?

You could at least do me that favor.

[whimpers]

[sniffles]

[slurping]

[whimsical music plays]

Did you eat a Jaws bar, too, lady?

[gasps]

[jaunty music plays]

Mm.

I have now.

[wails]

-Don't cry. Shh. -[music stops]

[sobs]

Here you go. Have this instead.

[crying stops]

[woman 1] Jin-seo!

What are you doing here?

Are you okay? Mommy's been looking for you.

They call her the train wreck of Haeseong-si, you know?

[woman 2] It's coming, so I hope you're prepared.

[man 2] She's the granddaughter of the owner of Hearty House.

She's completely lost her mind.

[Chae-ni] Be healthy so you can…

I'd stay away from her if you ask me.

You'll get hurt.

Come on, hurry up! Let's get moving. Come on, come on, let's go!

Jeez, this kind of thing, I swear!

[grunts]

Ugh, why even go about your business, huh?

Just go on vacation, everyone!

Go travel! See the whole goddamn world before it ends!

THE WONDERFOOLS

[music stops]

EPISODE 1 EVERY LIFE COMES WITH A SURPRISE TWIST

I'm telling you, this was a serial killer.

[bell chimes]

Huh?

Listen to this. Two weeks ago, Park Yong-sik here disappeared

when I stopped hearing from him,

and… and last week, Kim Bong-pal also vanished without a trace.

Ah. Stop fighting, maybe?

No one likes a guy who starts picking fights after he's had a few.

If I were them, I'd also cut you off.

Kim Bong-pal had just spotted me 5,000 won.

He's not the type of guy to take off without what he's owed.

Unless he was murdered.

Then you shouldn't be talking to me.

You should go to the police and file an official report right now.

Oh, like the police would… Come on!

You people always say that you're the ones who actually listen to us.

-Oh, jeez, uh… You gotta-- -[man 1] It's in the law too.

"Article 7, Clause 1. Civil servants are obliged to serve all citizens."

Okay. All right. Now, which one is 40?

[bell chimes]

[man 2] Hey, you. You didn't get a call. You're lying! Where are you going?

-[man 3] I don't even have a computer. -I can't do this. This is bad.

I can't do this. Where is he?

Lee Un-jeong!

Right here! Right over here, yeah.

-Here, here! Right over here. -Oh. Yeah?

Come, come, come.

Ah, okay.

Oh, you can go. Uh, we'll take care of it. We'll look for him, yes.

Oh brother. Okay.

-Shit. -[intriguing music plays]

Here, I got it, I got it.

-Uh, I… I can do it. -Okay.

I guess now's as good a time as any for you to go through the rite of passage.

He's a regular around here, that one.

[music stops]

[background chatter]

-[bell chimes] -Are you calling me a liar?

I'm telling you, the carp was abnormally long!

You don't get it. The thing was at least as tall as me sitting on a chair!

It had to be altered genetically. You see?

Someone must be dumping phenol into the water!

You remember V, right?

Yeah, that show about the aliens that ate vermin.

Yeah, well, the birds blinked like them. How else do you explain that?

Just more proof that it's phenol!

I'm telling you, you need to go out there and inspect it! Just listen to me!

So either there's a corpse slowly rotting,

or its phenol and you need to stop wasting time!

You have to go through that to become a true customer complaint representative.

Strangely enough, my stomach's starting to hurt, so I'll leave you to it.

Uh… Uh…

[footsteps recede]

[sighs]

Look at that, right there, huh? It's a total garbage dump. Right?

-You see that? Now-- -One moment, please.

-Oh. -[bell chimes]

Yes, here.

So, according to our records,

we did, in fact, already do an inspection of that area.

And we installed a sign prohibiting illegal dumping.

[man] Yeah, this one, right? This isn't enough!

Who's gonna be afraid of a sign with zero legal repercussions?

-Now-- -One moment, please.

[intriguing music plays]

[Un-jeong sighs]

Unfortunately, sir, the land is private property,

so there isn't anything that can be done.

Without the owner's consent, our hands are pretty much tied.

There's nothing we can do about it.

I guess my words don't mean anything

because I'm just some random who takes a number and waits to be called up?

Mr. Lee Un-jeong? Okay.

Should I go above your head to Section Chief Kim and get you in serious trouble?

Or should I go upstairs and take this straight to your director, huh?

Huh?

[scoffs] People these days.

Huh.

There are a total of 11 Section Chief Kims and four Director Lees

at Haeseong City Hall.

Which one would you like me to call?

Sir?

What now?

Hm.

Ooh, you're a real oddball, you know that?

Oh.

[laughs]

[chuckles awkwardly]

[man laughs]

-[bell chimes] -[Un-jeong] Next, please!

[man] "Next, please?!"

[man laughs]

[music fades]

[man 1] I'd be careful.

From here, this place probably looks like some quiet and peaceful town, doesn't it?

But it isn't. Trust me.

If you look at its underbelly,

no place on Earth is more screwed up than here.

Mm.

[slurps]

And now people are disappearing.

[intriguing music plays]

Just like 20 years ago.

[slurps]

Back then,

it was dozens of people, both children and adults,

just up and vanished.

So be careful.

I figured you may not know the history since you're not from around here.

Well, thank you.

[man 1] But I saw it.

With my own eyes, I saw it 20 years ago.

[music stops]

[mysterious music plays]

[music fades]

You need saving.

[sighs]

[man 1] Man, don't you people have anything better to do? You're so annoying.

Go!

I told you to go!

Oh!

-Huh? -[mysterious music plays]

Wh… wh… what the hell is this? What's going on here?

Wh… wh… what are you trying to pull, huh?

[ominous music plays]

[man 1 whimpers]

[woman] Believe.

And seek eternal salvation.

[gasps]

-[man 1 gasps] -[music stops]

I wanna go on vacation.

Ah, stop it.

No, I really need to. Just give me a little bit of that.

[woman] No.

-Why? -Give me a break!

Grandma, are you gonna take all that money with you when you die?

You donate hundreds of millions to other places.

Just think of me as a donation!

Giving you money right now would just be wasting it.

Money in the hands of someone who doesn't know how to spend it

can be very dangerous and poisonous too.

I won't know how to spend money properly until you give me some. Come on!

You can let me have that before I die.

Don't you know that the word "die" is strictly forbidden in this house?

Hey, wait. What did the doctor say?

I just meant what else do I really have to live for? Huh?

Like, I can't go anywhere and you won't let me do anything I want.

Oh, well, I'm sorry your life is so hard. [grumbles]

Instead of complaining,

why don't you finish peeling the onions and earn some money?

Oh, yeah. Take your medicine on time today for once, huh?

It's really tough being your granddaughter sometimes. You know that?

I don't know about that, but I bet it's even harder being your grandma!

[sighs]

[Chae-ni] As expected, the woman has no intention of giving me money.

[funky music plays]

KILIMANJARO AURORA

Yes, I'm going.

At least I can say I went to one place before I kick the bucket.

[grunts]

[man gasps]

[music fades]

-[whispers] What's going on? -Huh? I'm going.

-Grandma said you could? -Of course not, stupid.

You got the money?

I was hoping you'd help with that.

Oh, gotcha. No!

No, I can't. Sorry, I'm broke.

What? Dude, what the hell?

Oh, well, the roof kept leaking, so I had to spend all my money to get it fixed.

Your landlord should take care of that. You're a tenant. Why would you fix it?

Well, because he said he'd fix it next month.

Well, you should've waited until next month. Are you stupid?

That wasn't up to you to pay!

Hey, you ever had to use an umbrella inside before?

[sighs] You really are special, aren't ya? Haeseong-si's sap of the day.

[sighs]

Anyway, I can't help you.

[sighs] All right, fine, then. I'm going anyway.

But how?

I know. It sounds like you've got some hidden assets as heiress, don't ya?

You're such an idiot. You know that?

You have to actually inherit something to be called an heiress.

-And-- -[Grandma] Who's out there? Eunie?

Did you take your medicine?

[gasps]

Who do you think will live longer between her and I?

[Grandma] Take your damn medicine!

-I already took it! -[man sighs]

I bet you she'll never die.

[sighs]

I'm leaving. I have to.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! You just said you had no money.

I know that.

Keep this a secret…

[intriguing music plays]

…but by tomorrow, I'm gonna have 50 million won.

[gasps]

[music fades]

So, when do you think it'll be processed by?

You know how civil servants are.

[groans mockingly] They're so slow. [laughs]

I'll try to get a handle on my end as quickly as possible.

But first, I was thinking…

about the trip for my mom's 70th?

[gasps]

You know, the wind usually blows in from the west in the summer, right?

If I think about how much I've suffered

because of that stench since the last major rainfall, I swear…

Yeah.

-[woman] Sales have plummeted too. -Right.

Who'd want to come to a flower shop that stinks of rot? You know?

Yes, of course. This is the priority. [chuckles awkwardly]

And until that's done, my mom's trip can wait.

Why do you keep bringing it up?

I thought we were done with that.

You do only turn 70 once though.

Plus, she's never been on a plane before and, well--

I think you should just take her to the Hawaii Resort in Bugok.

Putting on the good son act is nice for the day,

but credit card debt lasts a long time, right?

-That's true, but-- -Ah! Oh, a bug!

Oh! [shrieks]

Oh my God! Get off! Get off! Get off! Get off!

Get off! [grunts]

Now die! Die! Die!

Die!

[woman grumbles]

All right. Well, everything's ready for your dinner. Enjoy, Ms. Moon Mi-hui.

[grunts]

-I think it's dead. -[grunts]

HAESEONG GIRLS' MIDDLE SCHOOL

-[man 1] Seo-yeong, over here! -[woman] Guys! I'm over here, come on!

-[cell phone buzzes] -[gentle music plays]

Hello?

Oh, hi, Ma. [chuckles awkwardly]

Yes, uh…

Yes, just wait a little longer. You said it's three months away.

Cheong!

[laughs]

[yelps]

[groans, laughs awkwardly]

Sorry, Ma.

Yeah.

Oh, for sure.

I'll send you to Hawaii.

Don't worry about it.

You know I'm more than capable--

[yelps, groans]

-[gasps] -Ow! [laughs awkwardly]

Oh God. My shoe.

Oh, Ma.

I'm busy. Yeah, I'll call you later.

-[sighs] -[man 2] Yes. [laughs awkwardly]

Oh, Bo-ra. Let's walk home together.

-[Bo-ra] Okay. -Wanna grab dinner too?

-Yeah, I'd love that. -Okay.

-We can hang out at my place too. -Oh, nice, nice. Sounds good.

Come on, let's go.

Oh, my shoes are soaked now.

[man 3] 50 million won by tomorrow?

-God, she's so lucky. -[music fades]

-[knocking] -[sighs]

[gasps]

Why bother locking the door? There's nothing worth taking.

It's to keep things out.

Like bugs and cats and stuff.

And especially you.

[man 2] Hey! You don't just close a door on someone!

[gasps] Oh no!

No! [breathes rapidly]

Oh!

Hey, look. There. There!

[gasps] Oh! Oh, thank God! There you are. [breathes shakily]

You said you got it fixed recently.

[breathes shakily]

I did.

I p… p… paid a lot of money for it too.

Are you laughing or crying?

[cries]

[suspenseful music plays]

[Chae-ni grunts]

[music fades]

[electricity crackles]

[suspenseful music resumes]

[music fades]

You going on a trip somewhere, Chae-ni?

I'm shocked your grandmother's letting you.

[woman 1] That's nice, Chae-ni. I'm so jealous.

What's gotten into your grandmother these days?

-[woman 2] Yeah, that's unlike her. -[man] You're so lucky. Have a good trip.

-[woman 3] Is she going somewhere? -[man] Sounds like she's going on a trip.

[woman 4] That's a great idea, honey. Travel while your knees are still good.

[jaunty music plays]

[woman 1] Bye! Have a great trip. Have fun!

[intriguing music plays]

[music fades]

Huh?

What?

What the heck?

Jeez.

[grunts]

Oh. It's Mr. Bong-pal's.

Did he really just leave his cart here?

Well, I'll borrow it then.

[sighs]

[sighs]

[strains]

Huh?

Huh?

This is Kim Bong-pal's cart, isn't it?

Who are you?

Are you the new supermarket manager?

[Chae-ni grunts]

Fine, take it, then. Go, take it. Take it!

[ominous music plays]

[Chae-ni grumbles]

Hm?

[man 1] I'm telling you, this was a serial killer.

[man 2] They call her the train wreck of Haeseong-si. I'd stay away from her.

[man 1] I'd be careful.

And now people are disappearing.

[music stops]

What are you doing?

That's a pretty big suitcase.

Get off!

Is Kim Bong-pal in some kind of trouble?

I have no idea!

[grunts]

Then maybe I should look inside your suitcase?

What exactly's in there?

Just the usual stuff, you know?

Why are you trying to look through my bag? [grunts]

What?

[grunts]

What's wrong with you?

[grunts] Hey, get off!

[mellow music plays]

[music fades]

[cell phone rings]

Hello?

[Grandma] You know it's not good for you to be out in the rain. Where did you go?

Oh.

-I had something to take care of. -[Grandma] Take care of?

What do you have to take care of in this weather? Huh?

Where are you?

Hey, talk.

Hello?

-Hello? Are you there? -Grandma, hang on a minute.

[Un-jeong] I'm sorry again.

Your info.

JUNIOR OFFICIAL LEE UN-JEONG

Haeseong City Civil Complaints?

[Grandma] You're at the complaints office? Why? Why?

Did someone file a complaint against you? What the hell did you do now?

You'll be hearing from my attorney, and he's really good.

Don't think paying for my dry cleaning is gonna work.

Okay.

Hm.

Good day.

Don't worry. It's nothing, Grandma. So, why'd you call?

Why do you think I'm calling?

What if you catch a cold? Come back.

I told you not to go out when the weather changes like that.

Grandma,

seriously, why can't you just let me go away?

[groans] You're still on that.

And in your current state, how is that supposed to work?

You want me to live a very long and happy life, right?

Yet you don't want me to do anything fun, or anything at all?

Grandma, doesn't it frustrate you to see me like this?

Aren't you embarrassed by what the neighbors think?

No!

Why should I be?

I'm still waiting, you know?

Tell me something. Were you healthy when you were younger?

No.

But still,

you were really kind,

and polite, too,

and you worked hard.

[melancholy music plays]

You were so tenacious.

You weren't really good at anything, but you were still tenacious.

Because you powered through and lived life to the fullest.

And so I'm still waiting for the day

when my tenacious little Eun Chae-ni hiding deep inside of you

decides to crawl out again.

Well, stop waiting.

'Cause she died, like I will.

Eunie, I said don't do that.

I told you to stop saying you're dying.

It drives me crazy that you would keep on saying that!

[Chae-ni] Oh, but, Grandma,

I really am dying.

[music fades]

But I never predicted that I would die like this.

[ominous music plays]

And in front of those bozos.

Instead of you, Grandma.

-[music fades] -[man sneezes]

[man exhales, sniffs]

[Chae-ni] Now, that's a plot twist.

So you're saying you wasted two million won

painting these walls with supposedly waterproof paint, huh?

Tsk, tsk.

I knew it. You're not just any old sap.

You may actually deserve the title of biggest sap of them all.

[sighs]

I wish money would just fall from the sky into our--

[gasps, groans]

Uh… yeah, that would be nice, wouldn't it?

Why is this taking forever? [yelps, groans]

Jesus Christ! Nothing in life is ever easy for me. Damn it.

Yet some people get 50 million won and go on vacation.

Oh yeah, who?

Who's got that kind of money to burn on a vacation?

Who else do I know who has that kind of money on hand?

There's no way the owner of Hearty House would go on a trip.

Hold on. Her granddaughter, the train wreck?

[thunder crashes]

[gasps, screams]

[breathes heavily]

Did you call me a train wreck just now?

So what? There a problem with me calling a train wreck a train wreck?

You're right.

-You're right, Mr. Nightmare. -What did you call me? Nightmare?

What gives you the right to talk that way?

What's wrong with me calling you a nightmare? You are one.

-Oh yeah? Well, you're a little brat-- -Stop it! Hey, hey, that's enough!

And that goes for you too. Leave the poor girl alone.

You stay out of this, world's biggest sap.

Yeah, stay out of it, sap.

I already told you, don't call me a sap.

It makes me feel like such a loser.

Why don't I get a cool nickname like you guys?

Can't you just give me a cool nickname like Sap King?

Or the King of Saps! That at least has a powerful edge to it, you know?

-Not just anyone can be the King of Saps. -[Nightmare] She's right.

You'd need to build up a sappy image for years, constantly fall on your face,

and most importantly, you need to have the overconfidence

to not care about what others are doing. That's a king.

Big talk from the official Nightmare of Haeseong-si.

You're very proud of yourself there.

Heard you were going on a 50-million-won getaway,

but I guess you have to leave your smart-ass at home with us?

Maybe you couldn't fit it in your bags? Lucky us, we get to deal with it.

But who are you kidding? You can't actually go.

Everyone here knows your grandmother. There's no chance she'd actually let you.

You know, I almost wanna tell on you.

Hey, Grandma!

Well, that's why

the Nightmare and the Sap King… need to help me.

You really think I'm crazy enough to help some punk who calls me a nightmare?

I'll make it worth your while. Five million won.

-Each. -[Nightmare] At your service, train wreck!

Okay, well, first, I need you to grab my luggage.

Of course. We are but your humble servants. [laughs]

Of course, ma'am. Right away, ma'am.

[Nightmare laughs]

[Chae-ni] Did I do something wrong?

[jaunty music plays]

Where did this all go south?

I forgot that the world can sometimes be shockingly unfair.

You got that right. The most useless thing ever is worrying about an heiress.

[ominous music plays]

[both laugh]

[Chae-ni] Did I dig my own grave?

[music stops]

[landlady] The people downstairs called again. The noise is getting out of hand!

What are you doing in there every night?

Didn't you say you lived alone?

What are you, having solo house parties constantly?

Sorry about that. I'll keep it down.

I told you. It's an old building, so the insulation is bad.

Please be respectful.

Do you think I feel good about this whole thing?

[Chae-ni] Yup. At 9:27 p.m. on some random day and month in 1999,

in the most ridiculous, embarrassing way,

I really died in that chair.

Oh, she's probably off causing trouble somewhere again. [scoffs]

You just love torturing me. You really keep me on my toes.

PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR, GU JUN-MO

[cell phone rings]

COLD CASES

URBAN LEGENDS OF HAESEONG

[cell phone continues ringing]

Yes? Gu Jun-mo here.

Hey, Jun-mo. Uh, I'm sorry, I need a favor.

What's up?

Chae-ni go MIA on you again?

Nothing gets past you. Can you please track her location for me?

Are you sure you want to spend that kind of money again? She'll come home.

Yeah, well, you could've done it for free if you were still on the force,

but then you had to quit and charge me all this money.

I know. Consider it done.

[exhales]

[Sap King whimpers]

Chae-ni, I'm sorry. Please come back!

Please don't die! Please don't die on me.

[cell phone rings]

-[cell phone thuds] -[Sap King whimpers]

We didn't touch her. How is this possible?

You and I didn't lay a finger on her. How could she die like that? Why did she die?

[whimpers]

[Nightmare] No one's gonna believe us.

[Sap King whimpers]

We're her kidnappers right now.

[sobs]

How can you just be sitting there right now? I told you to call for help!

No. It's too late for her now.

Come on, call now! If you don't, she's a goner!

I told you, she's already gone!

Her pupils…

[crying] Her pupils are dilated!

[sobs]

[Sap King] What are we going to do about her? [breathes shakily]

What are we going to do about Grandma?

Grandma's gonna kills us.

[whimpers]

[sniffs]

[grunts]

-For now, we just hide the body. -Wh… what?

If we don't do this properly, we could both be charged with murdering her.

[whimpers]

B… b… but that isn't right.

If we just, uh…

just explain to them that she didn't die because of us.

And who would believe us, huh? No one!

The person we supposedly kidnapped is dead!

Okay, but what now?!

That's why tossing her's the best option.

[whimpers]

I…

[cries]

But Chae-ni isn't garbage. You can't do that to her!

Chae-ni was my best friend in the world!

No, I get it, but she can't stay here like this.

Just think of her like, you know…

Uh, she's… temporary storage.

[wails]

[sniffs]

Why? Why? Why?!

[cries]

Chae-ni. [whimpers]

Close your eyes and be at peace.

Oh, that's freaky! Oh, that's so freaky. [whimpers]

Keep your eyes closed, please.

[cries]

[wails]

Chae-ni, I'm sorry. Close your eyes!

[wails]

I'm scared.

[wails]

-[cries] -[Sap King] Oh, I'm scared. [cries]

[Chae-ni] Yeah, that's right.

The one who orchestrated this whole kidnapping, which resulted in my death,

was none other than me, Eun Chae-ni.

[Chae-ni] You're both so frustrating. It's not rocket science, okay?

Cover your faces with these.

One person films the video, and the other person just stands there.

I can't make it any simpler for you two morons.

What about the money?

You said we get five million won.

[gasps] I'm scared!

When I get the money, I'll send it to you.

Don't worry. This is a foolproof plan.

You both know I'm smart.

If you can't trust me… then trust my brain.

But if you get 50 million won and we only get five million won each,

isn't that a little unfair?

You're not backing out of this now.

Do you want to film it? Or should I?

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hang on.

I, uh… I don't feel good about this. I don't.

How can we just betray Grandma like that?

Come on. Don't you think it's a little much?

[sighs] You've accumulated more than just debt with Grandma, haven't you?

Think about that. She bullied you for all those years, remember?

[breathes heavily]

[grunts]

But why does this matter to you now? Suddenly you just want to get out of town?

[sighs] Well,

I might not ever get the chance to go again.

True. It's not like peeling onions is gonna pay for much travel.

But still, this feels pretty extreme. I mean…

Listen, I'm just doing my best to look out for both you and Grandma.

That's why I wrote her a letter.

I'm sure she'll understand when she reads it. She was young once too.

[gentle music plays]

Oh, can't you just help me out for once?

I need you both to pull this off, and I…

For the first time in a while, I feel alive.

[music stops]

[haunting music plays]

[panting]

Are you even pushing this thing, or just pretending?

Excuse me. I'm pushing as hard as I can right now, thank you.

So, uh, where

do you wanna toss her, then?

I told you, we're not tossing her, Christ's sake! Temporary storage.

Yeah, right. We both know we're not coming back for her.

[Sap King whimpers]

Chae-ni.

Oh, her spirit is so strong, her eyes won't even stay closed.

[Nightmare] We're here.

This is the place.

People don't come here often.

No cameras either.

The authorities will never set foot here.

It's been abandoned by the public. Not even the owner shows his face.

It's tragic and haunting.

[Sap King] Mr. Son,

do we… really have to go in much further?

[whimpers]

We need an alibi to keep ourselves out of trouble, okay?

-Chae-ni'll understand that. -[Sap King whimpers]

She'd feel absolutely horrible if we were blamed for something she planned.

[whimpers]

-[Mr. Son] Okay? -[sputters]

All right. Let's go.

-[Sap King whimpers] -Okay, now gently.

[Sap King whimpers]

Come over here.

[whimpers] Okay.

Lift her up.

[Sap King whimpers]

Now, careful going down there.

[whimpers]

Okay.

One, two…

-[Un-jeong] Just a second. -[music stops]

[Sap King yelps, whimpers]

-Son Gyeong-hun? -Yeah.

What the hell are you doing here?

You complain about illegal dumping here every day.

Now you've decided to dump trash here too?

Aren't you that oddball from City Hall?

What are you doing here?

I'm here because you complained about the lack of inspections.

And you said there wouldn't even be a point. [chuckles]

You said it couldn't be resolved without the owner. Oh, screw it.

Just go. It's fine. I'm canceling my complaint, so go on.

[Sap King whimpers]

Well, uh…

What have you got there?

[suspenseful music sting]

-[gasps, whimpers] -What?

[suspenseful music plays]

[Gyeong-hun gasps] Oh no!

[gasps]

[music fades]

[gasps]

[dramatic music sting]

What…

the hell is that?

[tense music plays]

[music fades]

A mannequin.

Are you kidding me?

[whimpers]

[breathes shakily]

[tense music plays]

[music fades]

-I swear to God we didn't kill her! -[Sap King yelps]

[dramatic music plays]

[grunting]

[Sap King whimpers]

[Sap King screams]

[yells]

[retches]

[wheezing]

[coughing]

[retching]

So you two were out here

trying to dispose of a… a body?

-[music fades] -Dispose of a body? No, that's not…

We…

[breathes heavily]

We… No, no. You see, we were just gonna pretend to kidnap her at first, but then--

So it's kidnapping and murder?

Oh, we did nothing wrong! We never even touched her, I swear to you!

She just died!

-[Sap King] Chae-ni! -[wails]

Do you think we wanted any part of this? This is a girl we grew up with.

We also know her grandma, who runs Hearty House, very well. [cries]

So, what would we do this for?

Hearty House? So you're,

uh, talking about that so-called train wreck, aren't you?

[Gyeong-hun] Yes.

Chae-ni!

[Un-jeong coughs]

-[retches] -[Sap King] Oh, Chae-ni!

Chae-ni! [cries] Chae-ni.

[eerie music plays]

[sobs]

Chae-ni?

Uh, Chae-ni?! Where… where did she go?

[Gyeong-hun] What the hell? She was right there!

-Find her! Go check over there. -[Sap King] Ch… Chae-ni! Chae-ni!

-[whimpers] Chae-ni? -[Gyeong-hun] Chae-ni!

Chae-ni!

Chae-ni!

-Chae-ni! Where are you?! -[Sap King wails]

Chae-ni! Chae-ni!

-What the hell? -[Gyeong-hun] This is impossible!

-Who else is working with you guys? -No one!

Just us!

What happened to the body? It didn't walk off on its own.

-There's someone else, isn't there? -No, there isn't!

We didn't do any of this, I'm telling you.

But given the circumstances, anyone would think we're guilty!

So we were just gonna leave her here temporarily. [cries]

[both gasp]

Tell me exactly what happened, or I'm calling the cops.

-We're screwed! -No, don't!

-Where's your other partner? -[both gasp]

I'm calling right now.

Oddball, wait! Just a sec.

Listen to me for a sec.

Mr. Oddball! Mr. Oddball!

Let go of me! Let go, let go! Hey, hey! Let go!

-[cell phone beeps] -[dramatic music plays]

-No! No! Please! -Let go!

[Gyeong-hun] Mr. Oddball, sir, please just hear us out!

Sir! Oddball! Please!

You can't call the cops.

She really just died on her own!

But if you report it as a kidnapping and murder,

we'll definitely both be charged,

and we didn't do it!

-[man on phone] Hello? Hello? -[music stops]

Sir? Did you just say kidnapping and murder?

[gasps]

[gasps]

No! No!

[sputters] No!

We… we didn't do anything!

[exhales]

[breathes shakily]

[sighs]

[cell phone rings]

[cell phone beeps]

[man] This is the emergency call center. We traced your number.

Can you give us your location, please? Are you safe right now?

Is this Mr. Lee Un-jeong?

-Uh, what's the situation right now, sir? -[suspenseful music plays]

Sir, we've dispatched a squad car to your location,

so please remain there until they arrive.

[gasps] So they're on their way!

Oh, we're screwed!

-[wails] -[cries] Oh no! No!

-No! -[Sap King cries]

[sighs]

HEARTY HOUSE

[music fades]

[siren wails]

-[officer 1] Come out of there. -Hang on a second! Just a minute.

-[officer 2] What's your name? -Don't come closer!

Why can't you tell me your name, huh?

[officer 1] Jeez! Hey, come on, just come here!

Ah, God. All right, just hang tight.

Ugh, it stinks.

-[Gyeong-hun] No! Wait, please, please! -[officer 1] Hey!

Mr. Lee Un-jeong, you called this in?

-Yes. -[Gyeong-hun] I already told you…

I witnessed those two men over there trying to dump a woman's corpse.

Then where is it?

They must have had an accomplice who hid it while I wasn't looking.

It disappeared.

[Gyeong-hun moans]

You said you believe the victim was Ms. Eun Chae-ni of Hearty House?

Yes.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure.

Uh, are you talking about the woman behind you?

Yes, that's the one.

[gasps]

[dramatic music sting]

[gasps]

Isn't that Chae-ni?

[chuckles softly]

[whimpers]

[suspenseful music plays]

[Chae-ni] I…

[Un-jeong] That woman…

[both] …was definitely dead a few minutes ago.

[music fades]

[mysterious music plays]

[Chae-ni grunts] Hey, get off!

[chuckles softly]

[dramatic music plays]

[intriguing music plays]

[mysterious music plays]
