(Man gasps) What did you say?

I said that I just wanted
to talk to someone.

What the hell do you want?

What are you doing? Just let go of me!

(Sobbing)

You see....

I'm

Oh... Dae-su.

(Man) Mr Oh Dae-su.

- Leave them alone.
- Just hold on.

Did I hit on her? Did I hit on your girl?

Oh, shit.

- Hey, sit down!
- It's OK. I'm cool.

I'm cool.

Mr Oh Dae-su, sit down!

- You had too much to drink.
- (Undoes zipper)

- I need a piss first. Leave me alone!
- Sit down!

Let me take a leak, you asshole!

- Hey, you! I swear to God!
- Sit down!

- Get him down!
- (Groans)

- Sit down!
- I am very sorry.

Oh, shit! I gotta piss!

- See that? My kid.
- (Officer) Very nice. Now, sit down.

It's her birthday today, you know.

See? I got her a nice present
for her birthday.

♪ Gonna fly across the sky tonight

♪ Count the clouds
they're floating high tonight... ♪

My name, Oh Dae-su, means...

(Sniffs)
..."getting along with everyone".

That's what it says.
That's why I'm Oh Dae-su.

But, shit! Why can't I get along today?

I want to go!

Go!

- I told you to shut the hell up!
- I wanna go!

(Coughing)

- Let go of me, you assholes!
- He needs to be locked up!

- Get away from me!
- Someone get this animal.

- Leave him.
- Hey!

Thank you, officers. I'll make sure he
doesn't get drunk and cause trouble again.

- (Laughing)
- Yeah, right, sir.

He's usually a really nice guy.
Let's go.

I'll come back and visit you guys.

(Officer) Do us a favour,
don't come back again.

That's probably up to me, you assholes!

- Hey! You son of a bitch!
- What you doing?

Ha-ha! Hello there, sweet girl.
It's Daddy.

I got you a little gift. I'll be there
soon to give it to you, OK?

So, just wait a little bit longer
and I'll be there to give it to you, huh?

- Let me talk to her. Hey!
- Good girl.

- Give me the phone.
- Good girl.

Yeun-hee,
Joo-hwan wants to talk to you, dear.

Joo-hwan, wants to talk to you, huh?
Here he is.

Hello. You know Joo-hwan, right?
Hold on! It's me, Joo-hwan.

(Chuckles) So today's your birthday!

Oh, happy birthday!

I'll treat you to something nice tomorrow,
would you like that, sweetie?

Hello?
Oh, hello, Ja-hyun, I'm sorry.

I know it's very late.
Dae-su is on his way now.

I'm sorry. Yes?
Hold on, he's right here.

Huh? Dae-su! Come on!

Dae-su, your wife's on the phone!

- (Distant siren wails)
- Dae-su!

Dae-su, let's go!

Stop playing games!

Dae-su!
Your wife wants to talk to you!

Dae-su, where are you?

(Man) Excuse me. Excuse me.

Dae-su!

Your wife is on the phone!

Come on!

Dae-su!

(Clocks ticking)

(Footsteps approaching)

Sir, sir, sir, sir! Wait! Come here.
Come and talk to me, would you?

Would you? Hey, I'm not gonna tell you
to let me go. Just tell me why I'm here.

I should know the reason at least.

Shit, I've been locked up here
for two months already.

Sir, wait, come here, wait.
Wait. What is this place?

Sir, just tell me how long
I have to stay in here.

Hey, sir.
Come here. I just want to talk to you.

Hey, sir.

Hey, sir. Fuck you! Come here,
you asshole! Are you a son of a dick?

I saw your face, you asshole. If I ever
get out of here, you're dead, you asshole!

(Groaning)

I'm sorry. Hey, I won't curse.

Just tell me what to do.
I don't understand! Aagh!

How long do I have to be in here?

One month? Two? Three?
Hey, where are you going?

Just tell me how long, you son of a bitch!

Just tell me how long, you asshole!
You son of a bitch! You fucking assholes!

I'll kill you all, you fucking assholes!

Let me out of here! Let me out of here!

You assholes! Let me out of here!
(Banging)

Let me out! Let me out!

What are you doing?
You stupid son of a bitch!

Let me out of here!

Let me out! Let me out! You assholes!

You fuckers! I'll kill you! I'll kill you!

Fuck you!

(Dae-su) 'If they had told me
I was going to be locked up for 15 years,

'would it have been any easier to endure?'

I can't...!

'Or would it have been harder?'

LAUGH, AND THE WORLD
LAUGHS WITH YOU.

WEEP, AND YOU WEEP ALONE.

(TV reporter) 'Kim Ja-hyun's body was
found with a deep stab wound in the neck.

'The murder was particularly gruesome
and nothing of value was stolen.

'Police believe that the husband,
Oh Dae-su, had a motive.

'He disappeared mysteriously
after her murder a year ago,

'and is now considered
the prime suspect in the case.

'According to eye witnesses,
Oh Dae-su drank

'and was often observed fighting
with his wife.

'Blood samples and fingerprints found
at the scene were a match to the suspect.

'Sources said that Oh Dae-su
visited his wife at the time,

'which puts him at the scene of the crime.

'The only item missing from the house
was a family photo album.

'Detectives believe Oh Dae-su murdered
his wife and then stole that album.

'A reward is being offered
for any information

'leading to his arrest and conviction.'

- (Woman) 'Wow!

'That's truly an odour eater that works!'

(Announcer) 'Cat odour eaters available
at your local pet supplies store...'

(Dae-su) 'If you're standing aimlessly
at a phone booth on a rainy day,

'and you meet a man whose face
is covered by a violet umbrella,

'I'd suggest that you get close to the TV.

'The television is both a clock

vehicles to fall into the water below.'

(Dae-su) 'I decided to write down all
the people I'd fought, bothered and hurt.'

(TV reporter) '..an immediate
investigation into the cause...'

(Dae-su) 'This was both my prison journal
and the autobiography of my evil deeds.

'I thought I'd lived an average life.'

'But I have sinned so much.'

(Cuckoo calls)

'All I could think about at that moment

'was that the guy next door
probably ate with one chopstick.'

(Thudding)

(Thudding continues)

'Who would have imprisoned me?

'Was it Yoo Heung-sam?

'Lee So-young or Kang Chang-suk?

'Whoever it was, just wait.

'Wait a bit more.

'I'm going to rip your whole body apart,

'I have to sew six lines the first time.

Ah.

You see...
even though I'm worse than a beast,

don't I have the right to live?

(Sobbing) I should have the right to live.

Mister?

Even though I am worse than a beast...

..don't I have the right to live?

Yeah?

Don't I...

...have the right...

...to live?

Yeah?

(Dae-su) 'That phone booth
in the alley used to be here.

'Now there's an apartment building.

'So, he throws me on the roof.
What an asshole!'

I want to tell you my story.

Could you delay your death?

Please don't!

Oh, yeah.

That's awful.

That's quite a story you got.

Where are you going?

There's time for me to tell you my story!

Why I want to die!

(Dae-su) 'It's a real live girl!'

(Moaning)

That crazy guy took my glasses!

He was touching me in the elevator

He's crazy! He just took them...

'What's that smell?'

I don't even know
where this stuff comes from.

So don't even ask.

What? Excuse me?

I said that I want something
that's still alive.

Oh, sure.

Long time, no see.

(Dae-su) 'I've never been here before.'

Are you new?

'But she does look familiar.'

You look very familiar.

Have we met?

“Searching for the Best Chefs“
every Thursday night at 6:30.

You were featured on the youngest
Japanese female chef segment.

Oh, that? (Giggles)

They said the ratings were low,
but I guess it's popular.

Women's hands are usually warm,
so they can't make sushi.

Wow! You sure know a lot.

(Phone rings)

Who are you?

(Man) 'Do you like your clothes?'

Why...

...was I locked away?

(Man) 'Who do you think I am?'

- Yoo Heung-sam.
- (Man) 'Wrong.'

- Did Lee So-young hire you?
- 'No. Wrong again.'

Lee Jong-yong?

Kang Chang-suk? Hwang Joo-yeun?

Kim Na-sung? Park Ji-woo?

Im Duk-yoon? Lee Jae-pyung?
Kuk Su-ran?

Who the hell are you?

'Me? I'm sort of a scholar.

'And my major is you.

'A scholar studying Oh Dae-su.

'An expert on Oh Dae-su.

'Who I am isn't important.
Why is important.

'Think it over.
Review your whole lifetime.

'Since school is over,
it's time for your homework, right?

'Keep this in mind.

'A grain of sand or a rock,
in water they both sink.'

Let me ask you one thing.

I know you hypnotised me in there.

What did you make me do?

'I miss you. Hurry and come back.'

Here you go.

It's alive, right?

I'II slice it for you?

I must be a different breed of girl.
My hands are very cold.

(Dae-su) 'What's she doing?'

(Gasps) Sir. Sir!

Sir, are you OK?
Mister! Please wake up!

(Dae-su) 'Keep this in mind.

'Be it a grain of sand or a rock,
in water they both sink.'

Are you awake?

Is this for real?

Well, you don't have a fever.

Why did you faint if you train so much?
You look like you're in good shape.

A lack of needed sunlight
depletes your vitamins A and E.

So, I'm not immune to influenza.

You sound strange.

The bathroom door is broken
and doesn't lock.

Don't get any bright ideas,
or else I'II slice you like sushi.

- (Dae-su) What's this?
- Suppositories.

How else could I give you medicine
when you had fainted?

(Dae-su) 'Can 15 years
of imaginary training be put to use?'

Ow!

'It can't.'

I was wrong to do that.

I turned you down
after I brought you here.

I understand. Honestly, I really do.

I like you.

It's true. I wouldn't have brought you
back to my apartment if I didn't like you.

But...

...you don't even know who I am.

I'm Mi-do.

You'll see.

Later on, when I'm really ready...

...I swear that I will do it!
I promise!

Cos there is something about you
that I really like. Know what I mean?

I knew it when I first saw you,

when you first walked
into the sushi restaurant.

I could resist again,
in the heat of the moment, you know?

But no matter what, don't back out.

Just go ahead with it
and charge straight ahead.

OK? Sock it to me!

Sock it... to you.

(Groans)

The ants, do you still see them?

Do you still feel that way?

Yeah, if you're alone,
you probably still see the ants.

Very lonely people that I've met,

they all hallucinated about something
at one time or another.

I tried to figure out why once.

I did come up with one idea.

Ants move in groups.
I guess lonely people think about them.

Even though I never did.

(Woman) She called from overseas
five or six years ago.

Her Korean's gotten so bad.

She's always asking
if anyone has seen her dad.

She doesn't even know
that he killed her mother.

She hardly has any relatives.

Anyway, she calls us.

I think her Swedish foster parents
are both doctors.

Anyhow, Miss, here's the address.

Did they catch that rat, Dae-su, yet?

(Chuckles)

(Mi-do) Your daughter's address
is on the front,

and on the back is a map
to your wife's grave.

(Dae-su) 'Eva.

'Stockholm. Eva.'

Do you want to call her?

Hey, do you want me to call her?

Want to go to the grave together?

(Dae-su) 'No. I'm gonna kill
that bastard first.'

BLUE DRAGON

Bite into it. Is that it?

(Dae-su) 'I haven't chewed it yet.'

BLUE DRAGON

(Woman) Taxi! Taxi!

(Mi-do) 80? Was that the taste?

BLUE DRAGON

(Dae-su) 'Be it ten or 100 restaurants,
it doesn't matter.

'I ate the same thing for 15 years.

'I'll never forget that taste.'

BLUE DRAGON

(She sighs)

(Retching)

(Coughing and spitting)

Want me to make you an ID to log in?
Then you can use the computer.

(Typing)

Do you have a favourite song
or a movie?

(Chimes)

"Count of Monte Cristo“?

(Typing) There's no one here
with that name.

HOW'S LIFE IN A BIGGER PRISON,
OH DAE-SU?

Who are you?

(Typing) Who are you?

THE LONELY PRINCE IN
THE HIGH TOWER. DON'T FORGET ME.

(Dae-su) Who is this bastard?

I don't know him.
I just chat with him sometimes.

We talk about sushi.

Where are you going?

- Where are you going?
- I don't know who you are.

MAGIC...

(Dae-su) 'Magic Blue Dragon.

'What could
the Magic Blue Dragon mean?

'Why did they order from a restaurant
this far away?

'I've gone by five Chinese
restaurants already.

(Coughing) 'My lungs feel like
they're going to explode.'

(Coughs)

(♪ Music leaking through headphones)

Tell your cooks to put less scallions
in the dumplings.

Yeah.

(Lift ascends)

- Leave it there.
- OK.

(Bell dings)

(Foot knocking)

(Man) We don't work on anyone
being protected by bodyguards.

There are others who specialise in that.
So you can hire them.

Actually, we just concentrate
on the small fries, you know?

And if it's over six months,
transportation is included.

Oh, yeah. Sure.

(Thudding)

(Crash)

Why did you lock me up in here...

...dickshit?

I can't tell you our clients' information.

It's top secret.

Aagh!

(Screaming)

(Whimpering)

(Dae-su) I'm gonna pay you back
for all 15 years.

Each one I yank out
will make you age one year.

(Whimpering)

Aagh.

Aagh!

You gonna talk?

(Whimpering)

Aagh!

(Sobbing) I don't know.

I didn't see his face.

I recorded it. That's all.

OH DAE-SU

Any of you dickshits got AB blood,
raise your hand.

Ugh.

Hurry up. He lost a lot of blood.

(Knife clatters)

Aagh!

Wow!

- Yeah?
- Yeah. Is he dead?

Shit!

(Moaning)

(Lift chimes)

(Hammer clatters)

(Dae-su) 'I can't get along
any better now than I did before.

'And I've become a monster now.

'When my vengeance is over,
when I've had my revenge...

'..can I ever return
to being the old Dae-su?'

(Horn honking)

Sir, sir. Are you all right?

Look at all this blood! Sir! Sir!

- Are you OK?
- (Horn honks)

Hey!

Saewoon Apartments in Eung-am,
Building 8. Take care of him.

- Thank you.
- Not at all.

Farewell, Oh Dae-su.

(Dae-su) 'Farewell, Oh Dae-su.

'Farewell.

'Farewell.'

and want to kill?

'Any bitch you detest,
and want to more than kill her?

'We're at your service.

(Man 2) 'Won't he go crazy
if he's locked up for a long time?

(Man 1) 'Well, if you prefer he doesn't
go crazy, we can mix drugs into his drink.

'There's this stuff called
Ristedal solution.

'It's a well-known drug
used to treat schizophrenia.

'So, duration is important.
Thought much about it?

- 'How long do you want him locked up?'
- (Man 2) '15 years.'

- (Man 1 clears throat)
- (Man 2) 'Is that too long?'

(Man 1) 'What did he do?'

(Man 2) 'Well, you see,
Oh Dae-su... talks too much.'

(Dae-su) 'Looks like it's time to visit
Joo-hwan at the internet café tomorrow.'

Sit wherever you want to.

Joo-hwan.

(Joo-hwan crying)

(On tape) 'Well, you see,
Oh Dae-su... talks too much.'

(Tape stops)

(Dae-su) What do you think, Joo-hwan?

Have you heard this voice
anywhere before?

Now, how the hell should I know

all of the names of all of the husbands
whose wives you screwed?

ID: MONSTER

Mi-do

- Who's this Mi-do?
- A girl who cries a lot.

(Typing)

- Joo-hwan?
- Hm?

Did I? Did I really talk too much?

My friend, I'd like for you
to find that guy

and make him pay
for the awful thing he did to you.

SEARCH: EVERGREEN

EVERGREEN INVITES YOU TO CHAT

(Dae-su) "Congratulations.
Your case was dismissed yesterday."

But remember this by all means.
Open quote.

Like a gazelle
from the hand of the hunter,

like a bird from the snare
of the fowler...

...free yourself.

End of quote.

- (Dae-su) Who are you?
- Who the hell are you, you bastard?

(Dae-su) 'I made up my mind
when I was imprisoned

'that I wouldn't trust anyone
if I got out.

'If there's anyone I find suspicious,

'I'Il create a secret that only
that person and I will know.'

That ID, Monster, is a trap
that I made up just to catch you.

You led a stranger to your place,
didn't you? Who the hell are you?

(Sobbing)

Who's Evergreen?

(Phone rings)

(Joo-hwan) 'I got that Evergreen guy's ID
and found the owner's name.

- 'You should write it down. Got a pen?'
- Go ahead

- 'It's Su Dae-oh. That's kind of weird.'
- What's the address?

'Saewoon Apartments in Eung-am,
Building 7, room 407.'

(Dae-su) 'I actually am not doing so well.
I'm just living life in a bigger prison.'

(♪ Gentle classical music plays)

Evergreen.

You want to know...

...what's going on.
(Chuckles)

You want to know who I am.

Come on, it's a game.

First the who,
and then I'll tell you why.

If you figure it out,
come see me anytime.

I'II raise your score.
You have until July 5th.

Oh, no! Only five days left.

Too short?

Hang in there.

If you succeed,
I'll kill myself and not Mi-do.

Mm. That's right, Mi-do.

I will kill every girl that you love
until the day that you die.

Well, you're not a very good
saviour of women.

- You know what I'm saying...
- (Roars)

(Spluttering)

Wow! You are so strong Mr Monster.

Yes, you're the very monster
I've created.

But you won't find out
the reason why if you do this.

Fifteen years of being curious
would go to waste.

Do you want that?

(Gasps)

(Footsteps across the room)

(Dae-su) Sit down there.

(Clattering)

Ah, the famous tooth torture.

You won't have enough time for that.

I have a pacemaker in my chest
for my weak heart.

When it was put in,
I asked the doctor to do me a favour.

Doctor Hopkins put in a switch...

...to shut down the pacemaker.

You're thinking, “Why?"

So that I can kill myself whenever I want.

I'll give you a 100 grand.

Oh...

Ah?

Ah. What will you do?

You want to smash me
with that hammer, huh?

You won't know why you were locked up.

You want to inflict torture,
but I'll kill myself first.

So, do you seek revenge,
or do you find the truth?

Oh, you're in a tough spot.

I've been watching over you for 15 years.

I know a lot about you.
In fact, I've done very well.

Thanks to you.

Seeking revenge is the greatest cure
for someone who got hurt.

You should try it.

Imprisoned for 15 years.

Losing your wife and child.

You can forget all that.

Once again,
revenge is good for your health.

But what happens
after you've revenged yourself?

I bet that pain
will probably find you again.

Are you there, Dae-su?

Oh, Dae-su... long time, no see.

Hasn't she been tied up too long?
You also left the door unlocked.

(Mi-do screaming)

What are they doing?

(Dae-su) 'Nothing good.'

(Man humming)

He's a really good dentist.

Come on.

Ah, open up.

That's right, here we go.

(Muffled cries)

(Screaming)

You see?

They say that people shrink
cos they conjure stuff up in their head.

You see? Just don't make stuff up.

And you'll become brave as hell.

Now, here comes the real thing.

(Dae-su laughs)

(Laughing)

(Hisses)

(Laughing continues)

(Phone rings)

Yeah? (Chuckles)

I'm glad you told me about this,
but I haven't even started yet, you know.

I haven't touched the guy yet.

Huh?

Let's go.

(Dae-su groans)

All right, now let's go.

(Dae-su) Don't leave.

Let's fight.

(Chuckles)

- A party guy.
- Your hand.

I'm gonna chop off your hand.

Because you touched Mi-do's breasts.

(Groaning)

Then what about my tongue?

You still don't trust me,
you rotten bastard!

(Sobbing) Huh?

It looks hard to accomplish.

I looked into it,
I talked to somebody at the bank.

The reason the bank refused
to pay 270 million

was not due to building irregularities,
that was just a cover story.

They're having internal difficulties,
so I don't think we'll have any problems.

Besides, we're plugged into the board.

Of course, their CEO is very special to us
and his equity share is at 25%.

So, I don't think we'll have a problem,
he'll back us all the way.

I've set up a meeting...

(Mi-do crying) Dae-su.

Yeah.

Did he really say to you
that he would kill me?

Mm-hm.

Because of your love for me,
is that why?

Oh, Dae-su.

Yeah.

I My heart is only getting lonelier

♪ The words you said with your eyes

♪ I can feel with my hands...

I 'My heart is going to you

♪ 'As I shed my sad tears...'

(Singing echoes)

♪ Because my heart
is only getting lonelier

♪ 'Yours is the face that I love...' I

(Bodyguard) They packed their stuff
and left in a rental car.

Also, Mi-do called the restaurant
and quit her job.

- (Sighs)
- (Beeps)

Let's leave after this is done.

(Bodyguard)
You should get some rest today.

(Evergreen) I can't even sleep any more.
I'm so depressed.

Mi-do has fallen in love...

...with Oh Dae-su,
don't you think so?

Mr Han?

(Mi-do cries out)

Dae-su!

It's painful!

I feel like I'm gonna die.

How did you hold out for 15 years?

(Dae-su) There's always a way.

(Mi-do) Do you like it? You like it, right?
Oh! I want to be good to you.

(Giggles)

(Dae-su) 'Don't worry about the future.

'Don't worry about anything.

'I feel like I should thank them
for all those years in that prison.

'If I hadn't been in there, would Mi-do
love me as much as she does?'

(Hissing)

(Heavy breathing)

(Sneezes)

(Dae-su) 'He could only know
that I wanted to chop off Mr Park's hand

'by putting a bug on us.

'And he knew our whereabouts
by tailing us.

'I've been bugged. Please find it.'

(Mi-do) 'You know, maybe he freed you

'because he has fun
watching you run wild, seeking revenge.

'And he'll never tell you why,
so he can toy with you for ever.

'You think that's what he's doing?

WELCOME
TO EVERGREEN OLD BOYS

(♪ School anthem playing)

- (Man) But it's time to close up.
- Could I look at the records of class '79?

(Clears throat)
It's dark, so turn on the lights.

Take your time.

LEE WOO-JIN

(Dae-su) Joo-hwan?
Let me ask you something.

Do you know Lee Woo-jin, class '79?

He went to study in America.

(Joo-hwan) 'Lee Woo-jin?
I don't know him.

'So, is that the bastard's name?
How'd you find out?'

I looked through every one
of the school albums.

'Well, I certainly don't recognise
the name. You got anything else?'

- 'Why not check out the school records?'
- Do you know Lee Soo-ah?

- She went to our school.
- 'Soo-ah? She died.'

- What class was she in?
- 'She was in homeroom two, I think.

'In my class, next to yours.
What about her?'

(Dae-su) Why is there no photo?

Ah, she died. 80 that's why.

How did Lee Soo-ah die?

'Oh, yeah, you wouldn't know about her.
She died after you transferred.

'She went down to the Habchun Darn
one day by herself

'and something happened
cos she ended up falling in the river.

'It was a big deal.
They say she killed herself.

'She croaked like a dead fish.

'A week later, they found
her bloated body in the water.'

- What was she like?
- 'Well...'

She was a total slut, you know?

On the outside, she acted just
like a prude, a good girl.

Inside, she was really wild!

Rumours had it that slut fucked
everyone at school!

I should've gotten a piece of her!
(Laughs)

Yeah, I heard that her family
was really rich.

She was a good student,
I mean, she had good grades and all.

It's just the bad thing was
that she was a slut!

(Laughs)

Wow! This is such an old story.

Dae-su, I don't remember
since it was so long ago,

but I'll tell you, that Soo-ah,
she'd do anything, anytime...

Aagh!

(Dae-su) 'Hey, what's going on?
Joo-hwan! Speak to me.

'Joo-hwan, are you there?
Joo-hwan!

'What's going on? Joo-hwan?'

Oh Dae-su. You there?

My sister wasn't a slut.

You understand what I'm saying? Huh?

She was no whore!

Since you got rid of your bug, I had
to come all the way here to eavesdrop.

Huh? So, that's why Joo-hwan died.

Because of you!

He died because of you.

OK?

'You bastard! I'm gonna kill you!

'You son of a bitch!

'I'm gonna kill you,
if it's the last thing I do!

'You son of a bitch!
I'm gonna kill you!'

I'll kill you!

(Roars)

(Sobbing gently)

We're closed.
We'll be starting in another hour.

A guy we know who got six gold teeth
recommended this place.

Mr Park?

I had to move cos of you.

Check this out.

- I got a new television.
- (Dae-su) Do you like it?

There's a bunch of channels.
It's great, huh?

Some of the prisoners even prefer
to stay here cos they like the TV so much.

You lived in a place like this,
locked here for 15 years?

(Dae-su) After 11 years,
it felt like home.

(Park) Come on!
I don't need the money.

I hate this guy, too.

(Mi-do) We threw away the hand
cos it rotted.

(Park) I missed you.
Rotten bastard!

You'll pay for this.

You'll pay for this!

(Mi-do) So, why d'you bring me here,
anyway?

Hm?

- (Banging)
- (Mi-do) Let me out!

If I don't return for any reason
after July 5th, then let the girl go.

(Mi-do) Please let me out!

While I was locked up, I remember
there was someone visiting me.

- What did that person do?
- Did I give it to you twice?

I put a hypnosis-inducing drug
in your water.

Sodium barbiturate?

(Park chuckles)
TV Man knows everything!

(Mi-do) Let me out!

(Jangling)

SCISSORHANDS HAIR SALON

(Woman) I don't think it was
because it was a Catholic school,

you know what I mean?

There's probably another reason
that she died.

You know how kids will talk.

But she could have been...
pregnant, I don't know.

Well, I really don't think Soo-ah
was anything like that at all.

She was so innocent.
I don't think she'd put out for anyone.

A matter of fact, she was going steady
with a guy at the school.

You want to know who it was?

(Chuckles) I have no idea.

Choon, hey. Yeah.

You knew Soo-ah.
Who did she go out with?

You don't know?

Since when don't you care?

Oh, come on! Shut up!

Come on.
You're sure you don't remember?

You're useless. Who'd know?

But how'd he know?

Oh, yeah. I understand.

It was a long time ago.

All right.

I'll call him.

That's a good idea.
I'll call you later, OK?

Choon-shim said...

that she had heard it
from Joo-hwan.

You already knew what happened.

(Bell tinkles)

(Bell rings)

(Dae-su) 'Ring, ring. Ring, ring.

'Move aside.'

(Bell rings)

'You'll get hurt if you get in the way.'

(Bell rings)

OH DAE-SU

Oh Dae-su, you little misfit.
Put it out, now!

No, I'm transferring today, to Seoul.

So, just lay off, Sister, would you?

You good-for-nothing!

Ugh!

(Dae-su straining)

(Strains, thud, groans)

You're Oh Dae-su?

Yeah. Who are you?

I heard you're really popular.

Oh, you know how
those rumours get started.

I heard you're a funny comedian.

Say something funny.

Well, this whole popularity thing is such
a gigantic problem for me, you know.

So, there's this father and son.
They went to a public bathhouse.

They got undressed...

- See you later.
- Oh!

(Writing on blackboard)

TAKE CARE, FUCKHEADS!

(Laughs)

(Chalk clatters)

- (Shutter clicks)
- (Girl giggles) No, more!

(Boy) Ah, come on. Come here.

(Girl) Wait! No more!

- Come on. Come here.
- OK, OK.

(Shutter clicks)

Not now.

- Come on, raise this up.
- No!

- Raise it up.
- Don't!

(Shutter clicks)

What?

It tickles me.

(She moans)

Give me that.

What are you doing?

- Let me see.
- No, you can't!

- Let me see.
- Stop it!

(Sniffs)

(Giggles) Go away.

(Joo-hwan) Soo-ah? I'm not sure
I really know who she is.

I just know you've seen her.
She was in your class.

She's really cute
and she rides a red bicycle.

Oh...

I know who she is.
I remember her now.

- Where are you going?
- I gotta go.

I've got a date with Choon-shim.
See you in Seoul.

I'll kill you if you say anything!

(Mi-do) 'No way!

'You got locked up for 15 years
just for saying that?

'Was that such a big crime?'

(Dae-su) Be it a grain of sand or a rock,
in water they both sink.

That's what he thinks.

Then what does July 5th stand for?

That's...

...when his sister died.

Now, it's over.

You don't have to seek revenge.

You found out
why he locked you up for so long.

We will run away
where Woo-jin can never hurt us again.

(Dae-su) 'I can't end it like that.'

Seeking revenge has become
a part of me.

(Mi-do) But you don't even know
where he lives.

(Unzips suit bag)

(Dae-su) 'Like a gazelle
from the hand of the hunter,

'like a bird from the snare of the fowler,
free yourself.

'It's a phrase
from Jamon 6, verse 4.

'And "Jamon" in English means Proverb.

'Evergreen said he lives in a high tower.

'So, 6 and 4 must be
the floor he lives on.

'Fourth floor? Sixth floor?

'P.

'Penthouse!'

(Electronic voice)
'Please insert the code.'

When I'm praying,
what do you want me to tell God?

'Wrong entry. Please insert again.'

'Please insert the code.'

'Wrong entry. Please insert again.'

- Tell him...
- 'Please insert the code.'

"Dear Lord, please let me meet
a younger man next time."

(Laughs)

(Alarm blaring)

(Doors close)

(Lift ascends)

Please... make Lee Woo-jin...

...bow down to Dae-su
and make him beg for forgiveness.

You had sex with your sister.

Let's go up and talk.

(Clock ticking)

(Sobbing)

Sic him!

Aagh!

Be nice, would you?

(Shower running, Woo-jin humming)

(Sirens wailing)

Ah, that felt great.

- (Dae-su) You slept with your sister.
- I feel so refreshed.

(Dae-su) And I started the rumours.

That's the reason your sister died.

Looking through the mirror,
it's just like that day, isn't it?

Erasing my memory, telling me
to find the truth was really unfair.

You made me a vow.

And I won, so die!

(Woo-jin) 'You think you forgot that day
because you were hypnotised?

'Are you sure?'

Do you know the real reason
why you can't remember?

Because...

...you forgot about it, didn't you?

The simple truth is, Oh Dae-su,
you just forgot about it.

Why? It didn't matter to you.

Your rumour got so out of hand that
everyone believed Soo-ah was pregnant.

Even my sister got sucked
into the rumour and began believing it.

Then her period stopped
and her belly began to swell.

You see what effect
your little rumour had on my sister?

Interesting?

Can you imagine how she would feel
having a child who was also her nephew?

I sure can.

Do you see now?
Your tongue got my sister killed.

See, it wasn't my dick that did it.

Your tongue got her pregnant.

Is that why you killed your sister, huh?

Have you ever thought how a boy would feel
getting his own sister pregnant?

You were afraid.

You were scared everyone would know
once the baby was born.

(Woo-jin chuckles)

And then you eventually realised
what you'd done after you killed her.

And that's why you hate me, isn't it?

You blame me.

(Laughing)

They said at the dam, Soo-ah died alone.

Then who took this photo?
And July 5th, that's the day, isn't it?

Hey, I'll just finish what I was saying.

Now, listen. My story is really fun.

You ready? Just indulge me.

'Ever heard of post-hypnotic suggestion?

'You suggest something during hypnosis
which is planted in your subconscious.'

And you act it out when you're awake.
Still haven't figured it out?

"You led a strange person to your
place. Who the hell are you?"

(Mi-do) 'Who the hell are you,
you bastard?'

(Woo-jin laughs)
'We hypnotised both of you.

'Compared to other people, both of you
were highly receptive to hypnosis,

'which was very fortunate for me.

'Isn't this fun?

'One word makes you pregnant.
One word makes you fall in love.

'But no matter how receptive you are,

'and no matter how good
of a hypnotist Miss Yoo is...'

...getting people to fall in love
isn't easy,

cos people have a will of their own.

So, now, do you get it?

Hi. How are you?

(Woo-jin) 'Your first suggestion
was to go to that restaurant.'

We wanted you to meet Mi-do
after your release.

Next, we instructed you to react
to the cell phone's musical ring.

(Ringtone playing)

When you heard your phone ring, the sound
would make you say what you said.

Who are you?

So, uh... You like your clothes?

And Mi-do was instructed to react
to the man she heard say that.

When she grabs your hand,
your reaction, of course, would be...

Your gravest mistake wasn't
failing to find the answer.

If you keep asking the wrong questions,
you'll never find the right answer.

It's not, "Why did Woo-jin imprison me?"

It's, "Why did he release me?"

Once again,

why did Woo-jin release Dae-su
after 15 years?

So?

(♪ Humming prison tune)

(Woo-jin chuckles)

(♪ Stops humming)

(Dae-su) 'Laugh,
and the world laughs with you.

'Weep, and you weep alone.'

(Clock ticking)

(Door opens)

(Door closes)

(Dae-su roars)

(♪ Music over audio)

(Woo-jin) Mr Han...

(♪ Music over dialogue)

(Muffled) I said, Mr Han!

(Traffic noise)

(Retching)

Mi-do doesn't know, does she?

Why did you hide her there?

You thought he'd hate me
because I cutoff his hand?

Couldn't you figure out
that it was a trap?

How can you ever defend your woman
with that screwy thinking?

I've been secretly raising Mi-do
since she was just four.

What the hell's wrong with you, huh?

Don't you know anything at all?

You moron!

Oh, and Park's new place?

I got him that building
in exchange for his hand!

I did that!

(Phone rings)

Oh Dae-su!

Yes, it's right here.

There's some kind of box.
I don't know what it is.

He said to open it.

N0!

I... I'm begging you not to open that box.
Don't do it, don't do it. No, Mi-do!

Please, Mi-do.
Don't dare touch that thing!

What's in it?
You know, don't you?

Mi-do, Mi-do,
Mi-do, my little girl, listen.

Just wait a little longer, huh?

I-I... I'll be there. I'm going to be
there soon. Just don't touch it.

Can't you come and get me right now?

- I'm scared.
- Can't you wait a little longer, huh?

Yeah.

Good girl. Very good. Good.

Good. Please wait and I will call you back.
I will call you soon.

Very soon.

Please.

Please don't tell Mi-do.

What...

What has she done wrong?

I started the rumour, not her. Huh?

I have...

...committed a terrible sin
to your one and only sister.

And... I was very wrong to you also.

So please...
Please leave Mi-do alone, OK?

(Sobbing)

If, by any chance,
Mi-do finds out what happened,

you dick, I swear to God I'll rip your
whole damn body apart, do you hear?

And no one will be able to find your body
anywhere, no matter where they look!

Why?

Because I am going to chew
the entire thing up.

Woo-jin!

Woo-jin, I made a mistake.
Please forget what I said.

Please, sir! Boss! Woo-jin!

Please, you have to forgive me. You have
to promise not to say anything to Mi-do.

We're Evergreen Old Boys, Woo-jin.
Woo-jin, can I have your word on that?

Believe it or not,

You like it, right?'

Can you two do the same?

(Dae-su and Mi-do climaxing)

Soo-ah.

Woo-jin.

I know you've been scared.

Just let... let go.

I have no regrets. Do you?

(Shutter clicks)

Let go.

- Let go now. OK?
- (Woo-jin sobs)

(Gunshot)

(Dae-su) 'And this is what has
happened to me up until now.

'Thank you for listening to a terrible story
all the way through to the end.

'I hope you'll understand that the reason
I can't talk to you in person

'is because I have no tongue.'

(Miss Yoo) To be honest,
I have no reason to help you.

But there was something
that you wrote here that was touching.

“Even though I'm worse than a beast,

"don't I have the right to live?"

I have to warn you, though, the hypnosis
could possibly distort your memories.

Still want to go on?

We'll begin the hypnosis.

Please stare at that tree there.

The tree is slowly changing
into a concrete column right now.

'You're now inside Woo-jin's penthouse.

'It's a dreary night.

'The sound of your footsteps to the window
permeates the room.

'When I ring my bell...

'...you'll be split into two persons.'

(Bell tinkles)

'The one who doesn't know the secret
is Oh Dae-su.

'The one who keeps the secret
is the Monster.

'When I ring the bell again, the Monster
will turn around and begin walking away.'

(Bell tinkles)

'With each step,
the Monster will age one year.

'When the Monster reaches 70,
he will die.

'There's no need to worry.
It will be a very peaceful death.

'Now, good luck to you.'

(Mi-do) What's wrong?

You're all wet.

Was someone here with you?

I love you...
