Original subtitles

Authorities confirmed that Ms. Kim Na-bak of the beloved girl group, doLIVE,

has been missing for some time.

So you volunteered to look into the unprecedented kidnapping of an idol.

You'll have to find all the hidden clues and uncover the truths

to get to the bottom of this case

and find the missing Kim Na-bak.

THUS BEGAN THE INVESTIGATION

The orange ones are for music shows.

THE MONTHLY PLANNER DREW THE HEROES' SUSPICION

Hey, just a second.

-What is it? -We have a D.

-That's what you see? -Yeah.

-They must form an alphabet each. -It's an N!

AN "N" FROM THE LESSONS

We then get "dance."

That's it. "Dance."

Their first album was titled "Dance."

"In the Water."

-"In the Water." -Something must be there!

COULD A CLUE BE IN THE WATER?

-This is it. -Found it.

THE HEROES INCHED CLOSER TO NA-BAK

We have to find a code.

HOWEVER, TRIALS FOLLOWED

Confirm.

THEY TACKLED ALL TASKS

AND OVERCAME ALL OBSTACLES

THE TEAM WAS ON A HOT STREAK!

Go High Note was in fifth place.

Na-bak took her spot.

She was overtaken by Na-bak.

-"Ghost singer"? -"Ghost singer contract."

THEY WERE CLOSE TO SOLVING THE CASE

Let's see what we can find here.

BUT THE FINAL TASK STOPPED THEM

It does feel like we're stuck here.

-Is it this place? -Sae-ho!

-The plastic surgery clinic. -Then, the pub.

She went to the agency, the recording studio, and the pharmacy.

-The stadium. -All the strokes might form a word.

-It's a character. -That's a vowel.

-So… -If we assemble all the letters…

Wait… It's "basement"!

The basement!

KIM NA-BAK'S LAST KNOWN LOCATION

The real deal is just about to begin.

It has been confirmed that the place Kim Na-bak visited last was the basement.

Now, you'll each take a turn to go down to the basement.

You must find a hint each and return upstairs.

Dang it.

All five clues must be combined

for you to find the missing Kim Na-bak.

Bear that in mind.

TO FIND KIM NA-BAK, THEY MUST FIND CLUES IN THE BASEMENT

An assailant holding a knife doesn't scare me at all.

But I flinch if someone charges at me yelling.

It's supposed to be fine when you know it's all staged,

but that's not the case for me.

When we shot a similar episode for Beat Coin,

a crew member brought a massive doll, remember?

I greeted them while they were having a break with a vape.

When I walked in, they greeted me.

So I promised to overlook the vape, and we shook hands.

When they later rushed at me on set,

I knew who they were, but still hated the experience.

That explains it all.

Who wants to go downstairs first?

We need our smart cookie to go later,

so kick us off, Woo-young.

-Go ahead, Woo-young. -I guess I could.

Be honest. Are you sure you can go down there?

Not really. I'm all about going up.

-Here's an idea-- -Can one of you come with me?

-I'll go after Woo-young. -Here he goes again.

-Do I have to leave the house? -Yes.

The basement here does creep me out too.

Still, off you go, Woo-young.

-Fine. I'll try to be brave. -Good.

You can do this!

-I guess I'll man up for today. -Good luck.

-Go! -You've got this.

Show us how brave you are, Woo-young.

"WEAK HERO" DEPARTS FOR THE BASEMENT FIRST

I simply hate a lodge like this one.

THE OMINOUS VIBE IS PALPABLE EVEN FROM THE START

Seriously, a lodge like this…

I mean, why would a lodge like this one…

Just…

ALREADY LOST THE POWER OF SPEECH

The concept of a lodge itself is the absolute worst.

Can't you come with me, Director?

You can take my camera with you.

I seriously dislike a lodge like this.

A BODYCAM AS A COMPANION

Dang it. They got things set up again.

FACES HIS OBJECT OF FEAR, THE LODGE

THE EERIE ENERGY SWARMS IN THE STAIRWAY

GROANS

THE ENTRANCE TO THE BASEMENT

So we're doing another summer horror episode?

THE THREATENING BLUEISH LIGHT "WELCOMES" THE HERO

VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED TO THE PREGNANT, THE ELDERLY, AND THE INFIRM

I'm so sorry.

I beg of you…

I'm just scared witless, that's all.

A WAIL

Dang it.

MORE WAILING

Come on.

A NEWBORN'S CRY COMING FROM THE RESTROOM

Seriously, come on.

Why do I hear a baby crying in here?

YOU CAN'T IGNORE A WAILING BABY

Wait, that one's locked.

This one too.

NEIGHBORING DOORS ARE LOCKED

Why do we have so many doors here?

Cut me some slack, please.

INSTEAD OF A BABY, A SPOOKY DOLL GREETS WOO-YOUNG

THE BABY'S CRY WAS JUST A DECOY?

For goodness' sake!

IT'S JUST THE FIRST TASK, AND HE'S FED UP ALREADY

I can't believe you people.

Where's the hint?

GINGERLY BEGINS TO SEARCH THE DOLL

Damn it.

THE NOTE AROUND ITS NECK ANNOUNCES THE NEXT MISSION

"Go to the dance studio"?

BARELY MANAGED TO LEARN THE NEXT MISSION

THIS WAY TO THE DANCE STUDIO

NEXT UP IS THAT ROOM, HUH?

RIGHT HOOK, LEFT HOOK!

COME AT ME, WORLD!

APPROACHES THE STUDIO AFTER WASTING 30% OF HIS ENERGY

Dang, it's spacious.

Man…

SECOND MISSION SITE DANCE STUDIO

THE SUPPLIES ARE IN DISARRAY

IT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN ABANDONED LONG AGO FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON

WILL THIS PLACE GIVE WOO-YOUNG A HINT ABOUT NA-BAK'S LOCATION?

Hold on. Let me tie up my shoelaces.

Hey, give me a second here. I need to tie up my shoelaces quickly.

I'm going to be brave today.

I'm plucking up my courage.

IT'S TAKING HIM AGES

It's all good.

It's all good, okay?

BUT HE HASN'T RUN YET, AND THAT'S SOMETHING

It's all good here.

We're okay, right?

IS THAT HIS WEAPON?

WAIT

Could it be in one of the lockers?

COULD THE CLUE BE THERE?

WOULD HE FIND THE HINT BEHIND THE FIRMLY SHUT DOORS?

It took me five minutes already.

Can it be here?

CREEPS UP TO THE LOCKERS

BRAVELY OPENS THE FIRST LOCKER

ARE THOSE HANDS FROM A CORPSE?

WHOEVER IT WAS, THEY HAD PRETTY HANDS

VALIANTLY OPENS THE SECOND LOCKER

ARE THOSE CHICKEN FEET?

LET'S NOT FORGET ABOUT THOSE EERIE HAIR

ALL THINGS CONSIDERED, HE ISN'T "WEAK HERO" BUT "COURAGEOUS HERO"

I have to rise above today.

IS HE REBRANDING AS THE TOUGH GUY?

I have to rise above today.

Today is the day I…

Today is the day I…

TODAY IS THE DAY "WEAK HERO" BECOMES "COWARDLY HERO"

HE JUMPED FROM THIS POINT

AND LANDED ON THIS POINT

Shoot, my throat hurts.

-What was that? -The hallway…

Excuse me?

Go to the hallway.

DON'T MAKE ME REPEAT IT

You want me to go this way?

I was just here, no?

I came from here.

HELLO?

SNEAKS A PEEK

Goodness. It goes on forever.

HE'S REACHED THE HALLWAY MS. GHOST POINTED TO

Please, guys. Go easy on me just this once.

I'm begging you.

Is this it?

A SAFE WITH A KEYPAD FOUND AT THE END OF THE HALLWAY

"Press the passcode and the 'E' button."

The passcode and the E button?

BUT HE HAS NO LEADS ON THE PASSCODE

THIS DOOR IS LOCKED

Okay.

IS THIS ONE LOCKED TOO?

What's this?

Is this supposed to open?

A passcode, huh?

THUD!

HE WAS TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO OPEN THE DOOR

WHEN A SUDDEN NOISE JOLTED HIM

I mean, the passcode…

CAN SOMEONE BE WAITING BEHIND THE DOOR?

How do we find the code?

THE LOCKED DOOR AND THE SAFE REMAIN A MYSTERY

SUPPRESSING THE URGE TO RUN, WOO-YOUNG RETURNS TO THE HALLWAY

I'M IN THE HALLWAY BECAUSE I WAS TOLD TO COME HERE

BUT WHAT EXACTLY DO I HAVE TO DO HERE?

A FIGURE SUDDENLY JUMPS AT WOO-YOUNG

Darn it.

THEIR BIG BULK AND WADDLING GAIT

DEFINITELY SEEM FAMILIAR

ISN'T THAT THE DINOSAUR FROM THE PREVIOUS SHOOT

WHO VALIANTLY SACRIFICED THEMSELVES TO SECURE A PRESENT FOR SOOK?

WAIT, BUT WHAT IS THIS DINOSAUR DOING IN THE BASEMENT?

MAKES A RUN FOR IT ANYWAY

THROWS A WEAPON AT THE DINOSAUR

Dude. What's your deal?

Tell me what you want!

THE DINOSAUR HELD A MISSION CARD

I have to go to the vocal training room?

Where is this place, anyway?

Can I get an autograph?

WHO CHARGES AT A CELEBRITY TO ASK FOR AN AUTOGRAPH LIKE THAT?

-My marker… -Are you okay?

It must've flown away.

Are you all right?

-Where's my marker? -Where's this room?

Are you okay? I'm sorry about chucking that chair.

THE MARKER MUST'VE BEEN LOST THEN

WIDE OPEN

I'm here.

STUMBLES INTO THE VOCAL TRAINING ROOM WHILE RUNNING AWAY

I've reached my destination. I'm here…

LEAVES WITHOUT HIS AUTOGRAPH

Gosh, thank you for your trouble.

I'm sorry about earlier. I didn't mean to.

It's just that I got startled when you rushed in.

HIS EXIT ISN'T AS IMPRESSIVE AS HIS DRAMATIC ENTRANCE

It's just that I got startled when you rushed in.

ENTERS THE VOCAL TRAINING ROOM AFTER THE APOLOGY

Karaoke?

THIRD MISSION SITE VOCAL TRAINING ROOM

MISSION CARD

Hold on.

"Punch in 66782 and sing the song"?

Dang, my voice, though.

WILL HE BE ABLE TO SING AFTER SCREAMING SO MUCH?

You want me to sing "Arirang"?

"ARIRANG," THE FOLK SONG?

YOU WANT ME TO SING "ARIRANG" AFTER BEING CHASED BY THE DINOSAUR?

THIS FEELS LIKE A CHAOTIC DREAM AFTER AN ESPECIALLY LONG DAY

All right. Let's calm down with the song.

A SWIG OF COLD WATER

SQUEAK

UNBEKNOWNST TO WOO-YOUNG, THE DOOR CLOSES SHUT QUIETLY

Arirang…

FOR A HERO, HE'S NOT SO BRIGHT

ENGROSSED IN THE SONG

Arariyo

You're going over the Arirang Hill…

"DID I CLOSE THAT DOOR?"

FOCUSES ON THE SINGING MISSION

My love…

JUST WHEN THINGS GET RELAXED

THE ELECTRICITY GOES OUT TO CREATE THE SUSPENSE

For goodness' sake, guys. You're really ticking me off!

A SUDDEN KNOCK

You're really ticking me off!

THE "COWARDLY HERO" TURNS OUT TO BE A HIGH-JUMP HERO

All right, fine.

I got your message. My bad.

I'm really regretting it. I mean it…

WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?

I apologize!

I apologize!

I made a mistake.

My apologies.

COMING THROUGH

FORGET ABOUT THE MISSION! THIS HERO'S GOING TO RUN FOR IT

I feel you. I'll take off. What do I do now?

Just a second!

What's this? Wait.

What is this?

MS. GHOST HANDS HIM SOMETHING AFTER THE CHASE

Go up.

-You want me to go up? -Go upstairs.

THANK YOU AND GOODBYE

I still think… I did pretty okay.

I did it.

LET ME GET BACK AND BRAG TO MY CASTMATES

Here he comes.

-I bet he failed. -He'll ask us to come with him.

I did it all by myself!

-You got the clue? -You did it!

-I did it by myself. -What's the clue?

A tambourine?

What the… Why did I bring it with me?

-Why did you bring it with you? -Look, it's number five.

-My gosh. -I got my clue.

Did they make you solve a quiz for it?

Tell us. What's the vibe like down there?

Compared to the Beat Coin episode…

Well…

THERE WAS A SIMILAR EPISODE IN BEAT COIN

How should I put this?

There are more physical interactions.

So someone's down there?

Come on, give it to us straight.

-What did you do? -I suppose

the whole point is to keep going.

Keep on opening new doors.

I got lost the last time.

-Did you have to open a lot of doors? -Yeah.

I'm sweating buckets here. Let me take off my wig.

-Who wants to go next? -Me.

-Or me. -I'm skittish, though.

I could take my turn next.

No, I'll go next.

Practice your one-two combo before you go, Sook.

ALL YOU CAN COUNT ON ARE YOUR TWO FISTS!

Knock them down.

HONG GIL-DONG HEADS TO THE BASEMENT SECOND

Good luck!

I'm sweating like crazy.

I'm terrible with directions.

COWARDLY AND HOPELESS AT DIRECTIONS

Honestly, this isn't at all to my liking.

WHINING FROM THE GET-GO

This type of challenge terrifies me.

DRAGGING HER FEET

Shouldn't you use the landscape mode?

THOUGH TERRIFIED, THIS HERO STILL PROVIDES GREAT FILMING TIPS

Seriously though, I don't like basements.

I don't like basements

and the jump scares.

I don't like hints either.

Won't we be able to proceed without my clue?

Do I have to go alone?

Don't be like that. Come with me.

LETTING THE CREW PUT A BODYCAM WITHOUT COMPLAINT

It's not fastened down.

Are the straps loose?

Yeah, let me adjust them.

MY FEELINGS ASIDE, WE NEED GOOD FOOTAGE

Yeah, the bodycam is secure now.

I'll be back, then.

Dang it.

Is this it?

BACK TO WHINING

THE VETERAN HERO OF THE SHOWBIZ INDUSTRY, HONG GIL-DONG, ENTERS THE BASEMENT

Gosh, this is insane.

SIGHING FROM THE GET-GO

Why must I go through with this?

Oh, shoot. Look at the color of the lights.

CHECKS AGAIN FREAKED OUT

This is driving me insane.

Did they have to turn the lights blue?

THE BASEMENT LOOKS DARKER FROM GIL-DONG'S POINT OF VIEW

Don't do it.

I'm warning you.

A WAIL

OH, HEAVENS…

THE BASEMENT MISSION STARTS WITH A BABY'S WAIL

Damn it.

THIS IS TOO MUCH FOR THE INITIAL TRIAL

Jeez.

This is insane.

SUPPRESSES HER FEAR AND ENTERS THE BATHROOM

THE DOOR LEADING TO THE NEXT ROOM IS LOCKED

The baby must be here.

The baby must be here.

ARE YOU HERE, LITTLE ONE?

THERE ARE NO BABIES HERE

Damn it!

Seriously, don't do this.

A LOUD WAIL

Seriously, I'm this close to losing my wits.

THE BABY'S WAIL DIDN'T STOP EVEN AFTER SHE OPENED THE DOOR

SHOULD SHE OPEN THE FIRMLY SHUT DOOR ON THE LEFT SIDE?

The whole point is to keep going.

-Did you have to open a lot of doors? -Yeah.

WOO-YOUNG CLEARLY SAID TO KEEP GOING

HE DIDN'T OPEN THAT DOOR, THOUGH

WILL THERE BE ANOTHER HINT BEHIND THE DOOR?

JUST A LITTLE BIT…

IS THERE REALLY A BABY GHOST?

That doll.

KIM YU-GYEONG, PRODUCER

-That doll. -The what?

LOOK AT THE DOLL IN THE BACK, NOT HERE

TURNS OUT I DIDN'T HAVE TO CHECK THERE

EMBARRASSED

CRACKS UP

I really panicked when that door slid open.

OLD SAYINGS TEACH YOU TO FEAR PEOPLE MOST FOR A REASON

I have to go to the dance studio?

Where is the dance studio?

SHE BARELY LEARNED THE NEXT MISSION

Oh, please…

Please…

Please don't lunge at me.

ENTERS THE DANCE STUDIO

I'm losing my mind here.

This is the worst…

Don't do anything.

Please don't try anything.

I swear I'll…

ON HIGH ALERT

TIPTOEING AROUND

SPOTS THE FIRMLY SHUT LOCKERS

THOSE LOCKERS OBVIOUSLY HAVE TO BE OPENED

BEGRUDGINGLY APPROACHES THEM

HYPERVENTILATING

NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE YET

Don't do it.

HOW WILL THIS HERO REACT AFTER OPENING THE LOCKERS?

Damn it. Those crazy bastards.

SHOOT, I'M ON CAMERA

GETS IT TOGETHER AND OPENS THE SECOND LOCKER

RED CHICKEN FEET

Are you kidding me?

Why put chicken feet in here?

HERE COMES THE LOCKER GHOST

Why put chicken feet in here?

WE GOT YOU ON YOUR TOES AGAIN, DIDN'T WE?

SOOK SLAMMED THE DOOR BY REFLEX

DON'T YOU DARE, I HAVE A MESSAGE FOR YOU

-Go to the hallway. -What?

Go to the hallway.

Goodness.

THUMP

Quickly.

Dang it. Which way is it to this hallway anyway?

I'm hopeless at directions, but you put me through this every time.

SOOK STILL GOES IN THE DIRECTION MS. GHOST POINTED TO

Why is it so complicated down here?

A BANG SNAP GOES OFF

Those rascals.

Damn them all.

SHE'S TOO FRIGHTENED TO SWALLOW THE CURSES

Damn them all.

WOULD SHE GIVE ME AN AUTOGRAPH IF SHE'S AS MAD AS SHE SOUNDS?

STILL, I HAVE A JOB TO DO

WHAT IS THAT NOW?

Give me an autograph.

PLEASE GIVE ME AN AUTOGRAPH

What's with you, punk?

Gosh, I'm so sorry.

-Where's the vocal training room? -Here's a marker.

-What was that? -Please give me an autograph.

Did you have to charge at me to ask for an autograph?

Where's the vocal training room? Can you give me a general direction?

RUNS AWAY TO KEEP A SECRET

That punk… He popped a bang snap too.

Where is the vocal training room anyway?

Oh, man. This is driving me nuts.

Where is this place?

FOUND IT

I have a heart condition, you know.

ENTERS THE FINAL CHALLENGE OF IT ALL

Why does it look so ominous?

Don't do it.

Just don't.

WHATEVER IT IS, PLEASE DON'T DO IT

"Punch in 66782 and sing the song."

What, "Arirang"?

I GUESS THAT COULD HELP ME CALM DOWN

THE SONG GOES GREAT WITH HER COSTUME

CHECKS THE MIC

LET US CLOSE THE DOOR FOR YOU, MA'AM

THE DOOR IS CLOSED QUIETLY YET AGAIN WHILE THE MACHINE KEEPS THE HERO OCCUPIED

Arirang

Arirang

ADDS BLEATING SOUND EFFECT BY HERSELF

You're going over…

THE LIGHT GOES OFF

JUST WHEN SHE LETS HER GUARD DOWN

WE STRIKE AGAIN

What's going on?

IT'S TIME TO GO, SOOK

Come on, turn the light back on.

Jeez, I can't open that door.

Dang it.

WALKS IN HERSELF

The light. Please turn it back on.

SHE'S SUPPOSED TO SCREAM

BUT MERELY HOLDS THE CLUE OUT

Is it for me?

YEAH

Sorry about that.

Is it for me?

NO SCREAMING FOR THE COWARD

Sorry about that.

Go up.

What?

-Go up. -To where?

Is it over now?

-Go upstairs. -Okay.

After you.

YOU'RE BLOCKING MY WAY

Jeez, I'm so sorry.

But I can't handle this.

Please go. Please.

Enough fooling around, okay?

It was my bad.

Honestly…

HONG GIL-DONG FINALLY CLEARS THE LAST TRIAL

I hate to bother you again, but I'm terrible with directions, you see.

Dang it. Where the heck am I?

Dang it. Where the heck am I?

CLUELESS SOOK

I'm no good with directions.

THIS WAY IS THE EXIT

Oh, I ran this way.

I turned this corner…

DANCE STUDIO

Don't do anything.

PRO TIP FOR THE DIRECTIONALLY CHALLENGED

RETRACE YOUR STEPS IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE THE EXIT IS

Goodness. Don't try anything.

Which way did I come in again?

IT'S THIS WAY

Probably here, right?

Here it is.

MAYBE WE SHOULD GIVE YOU A MAZE MISSION NEXT TIME

She's back.

HERE COMES SOOK

-She looks super mad. -Dang it.

What's the matter?

Gosh, is that five or two?

TAKE IT, IT'S NUMBER 5

-It's five. -It's five again.

-I'm so pissed. -What happened?

You can't handle it, Sae-ho.

Why do you say that?

You can't go in there.

THAT'S ALL I'M SAYING ON THE SUBJECT

Why can't I go in there?

Talk to me, Sook.

You just can't.

CRACKING UP

Tell me why.

WOO-YOUNG KNOWS WHAT'S UP WHILE SAE-HO IS CLUELESS

WHY IS EVERYONE LAUGHING?

What's the matter?

DON'T EVEN TRY IT, SAE-HO

-You have no hope. -But why? Tell me why, Sook.

If she held a cigarette,

-it'd look perfect. -Yeah?

I'd love to slide a stick here.

It feels like we need some smoke covering up Sook's face.

I can only say…

that it ticked me off.

What's with the vibe downstairs?

For me, the last part was the worst.

It was so frightening.

My heart is still racing.

STILL THUMPING HARD

Whatever they've got, those are mere setups. I'll be fine.

PUTS UP A CALM FACADE

I'm not talking about the setups. The general vibe is awful.

And she's right.

Isn't it super humid downstairs?

I've been wondering what they must've done.

When they come running… No, I shouldn't say that.

If you ask me, the bathroom…

Forget it.

SO MANY QUESTIONS

The…

Just see for yourselves.

FIRST-HAND EXPERIENCE WILL TELL YOU EVERYTHING

PATS FOR COMFORT

It's okay.

After I pushed a chair…

FLASHMAN GOES THIRD

-I'll get going. -Good luck, Sae-ho.

-Okay. -Sae-ho.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK

Didn't I make it back earlier than Woo-young?

Not really. You took long too.

14 MINUTES VS. 13 MINUTES

That stuff's too much for me.

HOW LONG WILL FLASHMAN TAKE?

Is it better than the Beat Coin shoot?

THERE'S NO BETTER TEACHER THAN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

MARCHING ON LIKE A BRAVE SOLDIER

Hold on. It looks so spooky.

What should I do?

All right! Settle down, everyone.

I DARE YOU

Come on out.

FLINCHES

THE MISSION FINALLY BEGINS

Come on now.

All right, then.

Why are you crying?

A LOUD WAIL

I got…

I got it, okay?

WILL HE BE ABLE TO KEEP HIS COOL?

Goodness. The dance studio, huh?

That was intense.

Jeez.

Seriously, what was that?

WHAT HAPPENED? HE'S NOT THE BRAVE TYPE

Come on out. Come on.

SO, DO I SCARE YOU?

-Go to the hallway. -Come again?

-Where was that? Hello. -The hallway.

Jeez. My goodness.

Thanks anyway.

SHUTS THE DOOR TIGHTLY

YOUR MARRIAGE CHANGED YOU, HUH?

PROUD AND BRAVE

I got it, okay?

HE DID GET BETTER AT MANAGING DOORS TOO

That was intense.

THIS IS THE THIRD TIME HE'S SHUT THE DOOR SECURELY

NEXT UP IS MR. DINOSAUR, THE CRAZED FAN

An autograph, please.

What's your name?

Your name, please.

"To. Mr. Dinosaur."

FAILED TO SURPRISE HIM AND ONLY SECURED HIS AUTOGRAPH

ONE MIGHT THINK YOU'RE ACTUALLY HIS FAN

HOW WILL HE MANAGE THE VOCAL TRAINING ROOM MISSION?

Arirang

Arirang

Arariyo

REMAINS VIGILANT

THIS IS THE CREW'S ROOM

-You're choosing -This isn't ideal.

-To leave me behind -We can't shut the door with him watching.

REMAINS EVER SO VIGILANT AS IF HE IS PROTECTING HIS NEW FAMILY

In less than four kilometers

FINALLY, THIS IS THE CHANCE TO CLOSE THE DOOR

KICKS IT OPEN

DOES IT HAVE A CLOSING MECHANISM?

THUD, THUD

Come on. That's not cool.

Come on. That's not cool.

This isn't cool, I tell you.

Come on now.

HERO SCOLDS THE GHOST

TAKES THE HINT BY FORCE

Thanks. Can I go upstairs now?

-Go up. -Okay.

-Go upstairs. -Sure.

GET UP THERE AND LET'S NOT MEET AGAIN

COMES OUT AS BRAVE AS EVER IN JUST 6 MINUTES

Dang it!

IT SEEMS HE STILL HATED THE EXPERIENCE

-He's back. -Here he is.

FLASHMAN RETURNS AFTER FINISHING HIS ASSIGNMENT

Goodness.

WHY THE APPLAUSE AS IF HE HAD PULLED OFF AN EPIC TASK?

WHY THE FORMAL GREETING?

Good work.

What number did you get?

WHAT NUMBER DID FLASHMAN GET?

It's seven.

IT SEEMS THE CREW DID GET TO HIM

THOUGH HE GRITTED HIS TEETH AND SOLDIERED ON

My gosh, this is killing me.

I get what you meant now. The whole vibe was really bad.

I'll just go downstairs and get it over with.

-Good luck, Jin-kyung. -See you soon.

-Jin-kyung, try not to panic. -Got it, Sook.

-Good luck with collecting the hint. -Okay.

WONDER WOMAN ENTERS THE BASEMENT

SHAKING LIKE A LEAF

A WAIL

SPOOKY WAILING COMING FROM THE BATHROOM

Where do I go?

TAKES A QUICK LOOK

Give me a direction.

Where should I go?

-Can you hear the baby crying? -Yes.

Head that way.

I'm supposed to follow the sound of the baby?

-To the bathroom? -Yes.

I HAVE TO GET IN THERE?

SHAKEN

Why is that necessary?

Because the baby is crying.

-Excuse me? -The baby is crying in there.

What if that kid is terrifying me?

-I bet it's not a baby. -It is a baby.

Are you sure?

This is nuts.

EVENTUALLY HEADS TO THE BATHROOM TO SOOTHE THE BABY

EVEN A LOUDER WAIL

Where's the sound coming from?

IN HERE

Where are you?

Are you in here?

HI THERE

Oh, there you are.

Are you in here?

RUNS AWAY

Seriously, you people.

What's that?

A sign hangs around its neck.

It's just way too much for me. Come with me.

-Why would I… -Please?

-There's nothing to be scared of. -Really?

OUR HERO IS A GRUMBLER

Let's get it over with.

Come on. You have something around your neck?

You want me to go to the dance studio?

Here it is.

FOUND THE NEXT MISSION SITE AFTER MUCH COMPLAINING

SPOOKED

WELCOME TO THE DANCE STUDIO

WHY IS EVERYTHING IN RED HERE?

The dance studio.

Why did they send me here?

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?

SHE HAS TO OPEN THESE LOCKERS

This place is…

SPOTS THE LOCKERS

PRETENDS NOT TO HAVE SEEN IT

BLATANTLY IGNORES THEM

Where's the next clue?

It's not scary at all.

Where am I supposed to find the code?

A COP-OUT HERO

The code…

IGNORES THE LOCKERS

AND RUNS AGAIN

Where is this passcode?

I'M CHOOSING NOT TO OPEN THEM

MR. DINOSAUR ON STANDBY

Excuse me.

HE CAN'T BE SEEN YET!

I need to… find the code.

JUMPS IN AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT TO CUT HER OFF

-What's the matter? -What did I just see?

LET'S JUST LAUGH IT OFF

-The passcode? -Where can I…

find the passcode?

-In the lockers. -What?

In the lockers.

But they won't open.

They won't?

-I couldn't open them. -They're unlocked.

The lockers are right there,

-behind the pillar. -I see.

Go check them out.

SNICKERS

I just saw something hilarious.

"SOMETHING HILARIOUS"

IS SHE GONE NOW?

The blue lockers. There they are.

But no one told me I had to open these.

SPOOKED

Is something in here?

SCARED STIFF, BUT MOVES ON TO THE NEXT ONE

THE CLUE ISN'T HERE EITHER

You startled me!

A TERRIBLE BEING JUMPS OUT

You startled me!

-Go to the hallway. -What?

-Go to the hallway. -You want me to go to the hallway?

-Quickly… -Quickly?

Get going!

FINE, I WAS GOING TO LEAVE ANYWAY

REACHES THE HALLWAY AFTER GHOST'S DISMISSAL

Will I find it here?

THIS IS THE HALLWAY…

HER REUNION WITH MR. DINOSAUR IS IMMINENT

RUSTLING SOUNDS

What the…

What is this?

What do you want?

FINALLY REUNITED WITH MR. DINOSAUR

NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN

You startled me, dang it.

An autograph, please.

My goodness.

You want an autograph?

I have to go to the vocal training room?

Where is it, anyway?

RIGHT HERE

Vocal training room…

MR. DINOSAUR IS QUITE THE GENTLEMAN

VOCAL TRAINING ROOM

This is it.

"Punch in 66782 and sing the song"?

Six, six, seven, eight, two.

YOU CAN COUNT ON HER TO TAKE ORDERS EVEN WHEN SHE'S SCARED

SHE'S READY TO SING

AT THAT MOMENT…

THE DOOR CLOSES EVER SO SLOWLY

Arirang

ENGROSSED IN THE SONG

DID I CLOSE THE DOOR?

BLACKOUT

My gosh.

THUD, THUD

Are you for real?

I can't believe you.

What's the matter?

HERE

TAKE THIS

Go up.

You want me to go up?

Where? On the couch?

Take this and go upstairs.

What is it?

It's a hint.

Oh, there it is.

Dang it. Where is it?

Where did it go? I dropped it, and it's gone.

Where did it go?

I dropped it. What should I do?

Can you turn the light back on?

TURNS THE LIGHT BACK ON

Gosh, my heart.

Where did it go? There it is.

DO I HAVE TO PICK IT UP FOR HER?

I'll be on my way.

-Go upstairs. -I will.

SHE LEFT THE KIND GHOST BEHIND…

Goodness.

…TO RUSH BACK TO HER COSTARS

-I can see her now. -There she is.

-Hey, Jin-kyung. -It wasn't so bad.

-You're right. -It was okay.

Great job.

It was all right.

Oh, it's number nine.

-Is it six or nine? -It's six.

We have five, five, seven, and six.

Good luck, Woo-jae.

This is Optimus Prime, moving out.

You look drained already.

OPTIMUS PRIME PREPARES TO LEAVE FOR HIS MISSION

He's milking that outfit for all its worth.

Doesn't it feel like we're watching a boy?

His mom bought that costume for his birthday,

and the kid insists on wearing it all the time.

He'd even wear that to go hang out in the playground.

NO ONE CAN STOP ME NOW

Off you go.

-Set a new record. -How cute.

-Watch your step. -He's a ball of energy today.

I should start acting now.

For ghosts to hurt me,

they'd have to make contact with me.

-That means I can touch them too. -Of course.

That's Newton's third law of motion.

That means I can beat them up.

WALKS UP WITH HANDS CLENCHED INTO FISTS

MAKES A FUSS FOR SHOW

I'M SO SCARED, HEH-HEH

A WAIL

A baby's crying.

The kid is crying.

I SHOULD GO SOOTHE THE LITTLE ONE

Where's the mother?

SOB, SOB

WAIT FOR ME, I'M COMING

WAH, WAH

"Go to the dance studio"?

THIS MANLY MAN ISN'T AFFECTED

Where's the dance studio?

Here it is. I found it.

OVER-THE-TOP SILLY ACT

THE GHOST MIGHT PUNCH HIM FOR BEING SO LOUD

REACHED THE LOCKERS WHERE THE GHOST IS HIDING

WILL HE BE ABLE TO REMAIN CALM UNLIKE HIS CASTMATES?

HMM…

GRINS

HE'S CAUGHT ON

Someone must be behind the lockers.

SLOWLY CHECKS OUT THE BACK OF THE LOCKERS

ASTUTE KIDS ARE THE WORST

What on earth?

I don't get it. No one's there.

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

THE GHOST BEHIND THE LOCKERS SOMEHOW DISAPPEARED?

IS NO ONE HERE THEN?

EVEN THE CREW MEMBERS DON'T KNOW WHERE THE GHOST WENT

WHERE DID THE LOCKER GHOST DISAPPEAR TO?

CAREFULLY OPENS UP A LOCKER

WHAT ARE THOSE?

Those are chicken feet.

STARTS TO FEEL UNEASY

My goodness.

My goodness.

Go to the hallway.

What?

Go to the hallway!

The hallway?

The hallway… By the way, you have such big eyes.

THEY LOOK SO KIND TOO

Can we chat for a bit?

If a ghost appeared before me,

I'd be super amazed.

Their presence defies all logic of the scientific knowledge.

I'd have to ask what their current status is,

how long they've been dead,

how they've come to pass,

and if they're wearing what they wore when they died.

Ask them about their current place of residence too.

Can we chat for a bit?

Go to the hallway.

The hallway?

You want me to go to the hallway?

Hold on. Let's chat, okay?

I couldn't see anyone behind the curtains.

How are you hiding here?

EVEN GHOSTS WOULD BE AMAZED

POP, POP

BANG SNAPS GOT YOUNG WOO-JAE EXCITED

HE'LL RUN INTO MR. DINOSAUR SOON

SOUND EFFECTS ON

CHILDREN WOULD LOVE TO SEE MR. DINO GO AGAINST OPTIMUS PRIME

IGNORES HIM

STILL, MR. DINOSAUR TRAILS AFTER HIM

Can I get an autograph?

-You want my autograph? -Yes.

What's your name, please?

It's Seon-min.

-Seon-min, correct? -Yes.

"To. Seon-min."

Thank you for your efforts.

Here you go.

"Go to the vocal training room"?

MR. DINOSAUR TAKES OFF WITH THE AUTOGRAPH

It's karaoke.

SPOTS THE MISSION CARD

The song for 66782?

WHILE WOO-JAE PUNCHES IN THE NUMBER

THE DOOR TO THE NEXT ROOM OPENS SLOWLY

OBLIVIOUS, YOUNG WOO-JAE STARTS TO SING

Arariyo

MS. KIND GHOST CLOSES THE DOOR CAREFULLY

USES ALL SORTS OF TECHNIQUES

WAITING FOR THE RIGHT MOMENT

My love, you're choosing to…

IS ANYONE THERE?

SHE'S DETERMINED TO SCARE HIM

SHRIEKS

What's this? Give it to me.

You have something for me, no?

THE HINT

MISSED HIS HAND IN THE DARKNESS

LOOKS FOR THE CLUE

Are you looking for the hint?

I wonder where it is.

Help me find it.

THE CLUE IS IMPORTANT, SO…

-I found it. -Don't I scare you at all?

You petrify me.

-I do? -Yeah.

FINALLY, A DECENT CHAT

I think I got it.

-Is this it? -Yes.

Go up.

I must say,

it's not right to cut the song mid-verse.

The polite thing to do is to let people finish the first verse.

Go upstairs.

RETURNS WHILE KICKING UP A DUST

HE'S MAKING A FUSS AGAIN

IT WAS SO SCARY, GUYS

You're so annoying.

Goodness.

What I wouldn't do to smack him.

I can't stand the sight of him.

Give us your clue!

Let's assemble them now.

-Okay. -Let's do that.

-It's purple. -Is it number one?

THEY MUST RESCUE KIM NA-BAK WITH THE NUMBERS THEY FOUND

What if…

these form a passcode to the safe downstairs?

When I gave it a shake, it made clunking sounds.

AND LOCKED DOORS WERE BESIDE IT

I guess we have to return to the basement.

-It looks that way, but… -It'd take ages to find the right combo.

Tell me about it.

-We should sort it out-- -I bet they handed out the clues in order.

-It'll be 55761. -That makes sense.

They would've given us the clues in order.

We didn't have to overthink things, then.

YOU FOOLS

-Five, five, seven, six, one. -That never occurred to me.

-Let's pick up a number each… -Let's head downstairs.

-Remember, the code is 55761. -Let's roll.

-Let's go. -After you.

Can Woo-jae go alone?

WILL THE HEROES BE ABLE TO RESCUE KIM NA-BAK SAFELY?

Here it is.

-You meant this spot, right? -Yeah.

Right here.

-Here? -Yeah.

FEARLESS

SCARED

It's down at the end.

STILL LOCKED SAFE

What's with the basement anyway?

-Damn it. -What the…

YOUNG WOO-JAE'S EXCITED

The bang snaps.

Give it a rest, will you?

I'm popping them up so you won't get startled.

REACHED THE SAFE

Here we are.

-Shall I punch in the code? -Yeah.

It's 55761.

WILL THE HINTS FORM THE PASSCODE AS THEY EXPECT THEM TO?

That didn't work.

-What? -Did we get it wrong?

Maybe my number is nine instead of six.

Come again? You think your number is nine?

-I guess so. -Try 55791.

TRYING AGAIN WITH 55791

It worked!

That did it.

-It's now open. -Really? Let me see.

-How incredible. -What's in there?

There's something in here.

-Take it out. -Dang, I don't like this.

-Water. -I'm scared.

I can see some chocolate bars.

Those are my favorite.

AND A FLASHLIGHT?

-What's this? -Is that a key?

ISN'T IT TOO LATE FOR THIS?

It won't turn on.

-Hold on. Are they sending us out again? -Take everything out.

A FLASHLIGHT WITH BLUE LIGHT FOUND

Something fell off. It's a key.

A MYSTERIOUS KEY FOUND

Wait, is this what I think it is?

Try it on one of these doors.

Come on, Sook.

THE KEY WOULDN'T TURN

Use it on the other door.

MAYBE WE CHOSE THE WRONG DOOR?

A BUNDLE OF NERVES

Try turning it.

-It opened. -Na-bak must be here.

-She must be locked up in there. -Na-bak!

Hello?

Are you here, Ms. Kim?

Look, there's a closet.

-Here it is. -Look, a closet.

A CLOSET FOUND UPON ENTERING

She must be in there.

Right in this room.

She bought a closet.

A RECEIPT FROM GO HIGH NOTE'S DIARY

Na-bak could be stuck in some closet in this house.

Guys, come here.

-Ms. Kim. -Ms. Kim.

There must be someone there.

Look.

WE'LL SAVE YOU SOON, MS. KIM!

EMPTY

NO ONE'S THERE?

She might be in that room.

Woo-jae, let's check out that room.

-She must be in there. -Go on, Woo-jae.

BRAVE WOO-JAE IS THEIR CRUTCH

A PITCH-DARK ROOM OF MYSTERY

-Turn on the light. -Turn it on.

Maybe there's no lighting in here.

HERE'S THE SWITCH

They had the switch covered.

Maybe we're supposed to go in.

SO GET IN THERE, WOO-JAE

Do you see a closet there?

Give me that flashlight.

Tell us if there's a closet or not.

What's this place for anyway?

What's that?

What is this?

Look closely.

A MYSTERIOUS OBJECT FOUND!

If you ask me…

These are coat hangers.

It looks like a pile of trash.

-A closet should be here. -Did we come into the wrong room?

-No way. -But she has to be here.

Maybe we opened the wrong door.

HMM…

What? Look here.

"When will I see light again?"

Maybe she's locked away somewhere.

AND…

-Isn't that an arrow? -It is!

WHAT CAN THIS MEAN?

THEY RETURN TO THE ROOM THE ARROW IS POINTING TO

We might find another code here.

This isn't just a normal flashlight.

It sure isn't. Check out the ceiling. There you go.

What if there's a secret button that can reveal a hidden closet?

Perhaps there's a secret door somewhere.

The light came on.

LET'S LOOK FOR A SECRET SPACE

Don't turn on the light. They covered up the switch on purpose.

Look. There's a pattern down here.

-Where? -Maybe I'm mistaken.

-I don't think there's anything here. -Check this place too.

Shine the flashlight onto this wall.

-No, I don't think this is it. -Something might be here.

No.

But the arrow is clearly pointing to that room.

Where is the arrow?

-It does look like an arrow. -Down there.

AN ARROW TELLING THEM TO GO TO THE NEXT ROOM

WHAT IF IT'S A MISUNDERSTANDING?

Guys, look here.

This is well-organized, almost suspiciously so.

-Where do you mean? -Here in the closet, Sook.

WOO-YOUNG HAS DOUBTS HERE

-This place is… -Wait. I still--

What the?

WHILING FEELING OUT THE WALL, HE'S NOTICED SOMETHING STRANGE

SLAP, SLAP

-Hey! -What's the matter?

-Dang. -Let's move the closet.

-What's up? -This is it.

Tell me.

Wait. This isn't just a false wall.

We can just take it off.

Let's rescue her quickly.

We have to hurry.

I can rip it open.

-You can? -Yeah.

-Tear it off. -Go ahead.

You do it.

THEY'RE ALL TOO AFRAID

IN THE END, THEY PRESSURE YOUNG WOO-JAE TO HANDLE THE TASK

THE WALLPAPER IS EASILY PEELED OFF

Someone's there.

Gosh, this is crazy.

-It's insane. -We found her.

-Someone's there. -My gosh!

-Right there. -It must be Na-bak.

Hey, Na-bak.

We found Na-bak!

-Ms. Kim! -We found her.

Na-bak is right here.

That was incredible, Woo-young.

Maybe the other room served as a hint to make us check all the walls.

Jin-kyung was right to knock on all the walls.

Ms. Kim, are you okay? Let's untie her.

Yeah, let's do that.

Great job hanging in there.

I'm sorry it took us so long.

Why didn't you get here earlier? I've been waiting for you.

This should do it.

I bet it'd drive you insane, being held in a place like this.

Ms. Kim.

THE PROLONGED CAPTIVITY HAS MADE KIM NA-BAK WEAK

-My gosh. -Are you okay, Ms. Kim?

The false wall idea was really neat.

-They used the same wallpaper. -Good work.

How meticulous.

THE NPCS HAVE COME OUT TO CELEBRATE

All right. We did it!

KIM NA-BAK FINALLY RETURNS TO HER TEAM, DOLIVE

Great job, everyone.

GHOSTS: CHOI YU-RI, KIM RO-HA DINOSAUR FAN: EOM SEON-MIN

Ms. Kim Na-bak of the idol group doLIVE

has been safely rescued after being missing for three days.

It has been confirmed

that Ms. Kim had been confined in the basement of her dorm.

The culprit, Go High Pitch, a former trainee of DRVR Entertainment,

tried to flee the scene,

but the police apprehended her.

According to Ms. Kim's statement, her rescuers were a group of superheroes.

But their identities remain undisclosed as they disappeared after her rescue.

Many fans of doLIVE and those in the showbiz industry

stated that they'll remember the unidentified group as true heroes

and praised them highly.

Could Ms. Kim's rescuers have been true superheroes?

HEROES DON'T PUSH ONESELF FORWARD

Let's go!

BUT IF SOMEONE IN NEED STRETCHED OUT THEIR HAND…

There he goes again.

Me too.
