THE PLACES, CHARACTERS,
ORGANIZATIONS

AND CASES DEPICTED ARE FICTIONAL

I still don't get what happened.

Why did you climb the mountain that day?

What really happened
between you and Hyeon-jo?

We were just trying
to protect the mountain.

Because that was our job.

You were once legendary among the rangers.

Can I help you with anything?
I could help you find stuff.

Four kilometers into Dowon Valley,
there's an old yew tree behind Mangbawi.

Just below, you'll find a rotten stump.

Could you leave this there?

I-gang.

When did you get back?

I came to ask you something.

What do you know about this case?

Aren't these pictures of Yang Geun-tak?

And the yellow ribbon?

Why are you asking about
the yellow ribbon?

I asked headquarters in Wonju
to give you a position there.

But I--

Go back.

When I was lost here before,

I saw yellow ribbons.

If illegal hikers placed them there,

shouldn't they be directed
toward the peak?

Those ribbons didn't.

They weren't pointing to the peak,

but the opposite direction.

It's as if someone wanted you to be lost.

YANG GEUN-TAK
WEARING BLUE HIKING TOP

MEASURES TAKEN
IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER

Hello, Haedong Ranger Station.

I'll call if I find it.

-Hello, sir.
-Yes, hello.

-Return safely.
-All right.

Are you all right?

JO DAE-JIN

Let's see.

Lee Da-won! Aren't you coming?

Come on!

Okay, I'm coming!

Hey, wait up!

Come on!

As you requested,
I installed the unmanned cameras.

Did I do something wrong?

No, not at all. Good work.

When you were out on special patrol duty,

did anything else happen?

Did you see anyone suspicious?

No.

I didn't.

Do you know the meaning behind
the ringing of this bell?

It means the realm we live in
isn't the only realm out there.

There are 28 realms called the 28 cheon.

When that bell chimes,

the realm of ghosts opens
amidst the realm of humans,

which is when ghosts appear
in the mountains.

I heard that too.

A high school girl hanged herself
behind the Jangteomok Shelter.

Before she died,

she stayed in Room 15.

Since then, whoever sleeps there

wakes up with red rope marks
on their neck.

Seriously,

quit fooling around.

I hear there's a male ghost
at Jirisan these days.

The guy who collects medicinal herbs says

the ghost is bloody all over,

and that everyone who saw the ghost
ended up dead.

Are you saying
the grim reaper is at Jirisan?

I-gang.

Grab my hand.

I can't.

Step on my foot and step down.

-How could I possibly--
-It's okay.

Just think of me as a staircase.

Oh, dear.

I'm sorry.

You shouldn't underestimate Jirisan.

Plus, of course you'll get tired
if you bring stuff like that.

I'm so sorry.

Don't worry about me.

My son is a high school senior.

I wanted to pray to the gods.

I heard Cheonwangbong has great energy.

Jirisan is just a mountain.

There's no such thing.

I recommend
churches or temples for praying.

At least you wouldn't be exhausted.

BAEMSAGOL TRAIL

ENTRANCE

Ma'am.

You brought this all the way up Jirisan.

Now you must let your son taste it.

-You look exhausted. Thank you so much.
-No worries.

If your son passes the exam,
come again with him.

Sure.

You must come properly equipped, okay?

Okay.

Have a safe trip back!

How's your foot?

Should I get
some pain relief patches for you?

Forget it.

Bidam Team One,

reported sighting of illegal shamanism
three kilometers into Baektogol.

Haedong Team One, patrolling
four kilometers into Yangseokbong.

We'll try finishing…

…this in an hour.

Haedong Team Two,
now entering the scenic trail.

Bidam Team Two, currently at Dowon Valley.

Now heading to location.

Hey! Already tired
from lugging the watermelon?

No, not at all.

I'm coming.

Let's go!

What's all that?

A possessed shaman.

Looks like it'll be a sticky situation.

That's an invocatory rite,
so they won't leave easily.

-You're here.
-Yeah.

-What's Kim Sol doing here?
-He's obsessed with this stuff.

I'm not obsessed.
I'm simply curious about shamanism.

Now that's one amazing spectacle.

Let's get going.
Better end this before sundown.

Oh, yeah. Hey, do you know?

-What?
-The prerequisite to forcing shamans out.

What's that?

You really don't know?
It's incredibly important.

Before forcing them out you must shout,

"This is a royal command!"

Or it's bad luck for three years.

Say what?

Nobody is forcing you.

But do you know what's happened
to rangers who didn't shout it?

They failed tests, broke bones,
and got hemorrhoids.

It was crazy.

Oh, my knees.

Do what you want.

You're joking, right?

You really believe that stuff?

This is a royal command!

One, two.

-This is a royal command!
-This is a royal command!

It's a royal command.

Hello, I'm Park Il-hae
from Jirisan National Park and I'm--

-What are you talking about?
-Let go!

-Hey, sir! Let go of me.
-Oops, excuse me.

Hello, everyone,
you've violated article 29, section one

of the Natural Parks Act,
which restricts business activities.

You wench!

Plus, article 28, section one
for trespassing.

You even used flammables.

How much should we fine you?

Hello, everyone.

It's a royal command.

-Hey!
-What's this?

Sir, you'll--

Oh dear, how old are you?

Aren't you cold?
Here, put this on so we can go.

You came here wearing such pretty shoes?
Where's Mommy?

You should study,
not follow adults around.

All right?

You'll have a head injury if you trip.

-Stop it!
-Careful, please.

I said stop!

This is a royal command.
Yeah, a royal command.

-Oh, no.
-What a pity.

Oh, my. This--

I'm stiff even after stretching.

Quick, let's finish up here.

Il-hae.

-Good work.
-You wench!

-You'll be fined 100,000 won.
-How dare you!

Per person.

If you don't pay,
you'll be charged additional fees.

Pay as soon as you can.

You all right, kid?

You're destined to wander the mountains
even after death.

What's up with her?

What's this?

I've never seen this talisman.

I should go and examine it.

Do such people frequent this mountain?

You've heard phrases like,
"heading to the gol," right?

Like, "I went to the gorge of gol."

It originates from the myth

that nobody returns alive from Baektogol.

This place in Jirisan harbors
the most yin energy.

The Tonghak Revolution,
Japanese colonial era,

Korean War's partisan battle--

Many have died here.

You can practically
still dig up human remains.

Also, you'll often see

crosses or stone towers
all around Baektogol.

It's to honor those

who died here without even a tombstone.

If ghosts do exist,

this is where they'd appear.

Hence, shamans come here
to receive that energy.

So that's what this place is.

If ghosts do exist,
or anything of the sort,

this is where they'd appear.

-Thank you.
-Thanks.

Good work today.

Good thing you came.

-Return safely.
-You too.

-Goodbye.
-Go on ahead.

-We'll get going.
-Bye. Wait, crossing here.

-Where to?
-Gamnamu-jib would be perfect.

No, Grandma talks too much.

Your house then.

Good idea.

What are we doing?

We're obviously having an exorcism drink

to prevent ghosts.

Then shouldn't Kim Sol join in?

Oh, him?
He likes the ghosts to stick around.

-What? He was at the top of his class?
-That's right.

Jirisan is known for being tough.

So, him applying here was a shocker.

You're the stark opposite of I-gang.

She was the at the bottom of her class.

-Hey, I practically half-assed it.
-Half-ass my ass.

Yeah, she half-assed it.

She didn't want to come here,
but her grandmother forced her.

And the promotion exam?

You got a nosebleed from studying,
but still came in last.

-You made history with low your score was.
-That's her, all right.

Hey, you failed the promotion exam too!

Stop it.

You're making me blush
for being the only one who got promoted.

How embarrassing.

I-gang.

SWEET POTATO MAKGEOLLI

She's drinking the makgeolli.

Good drinking. I'm out.

You just drank--

-I'll take her home.
-But she drank--

Do you think he'll be okay?

He needs to experience it.

I-gang, wait up.

GAMNAMU-JIB

You need some air?

I-gang.

Why did you become a ranger

if you hate the mountains so much?

Right now,

I'll tell you why I became a ranger.

Listen carefully.

When I first went hiking,

I was six years old.

I-gang?

My parents lived in Jirisan.

I made it to Cheonwangbong
when I was seven.

When I turned eight, I reached the peak

with a bottle of Coca-Cola.

That's when I got the hang of it.

When I was nine,

I started mountain trekking.

I-gang.

Don't worry.

I'm fine.

Are you listening?

Yes.

That's when I started

skidding across mountains.

You know when you run so fast
you're practically flying?

You've never seen the night sky
up on Jirisan, right?

Listen some more.

When I was ten…

I brought something tasty
to drink with you, Mom.

Which age did you hear up to?

Thirteen years old.

You're way behind.

Met her first love yet?

-Her first love?
-Yes.

Stop already.

I'll do it.

The temperature will rise this week.

Today's temperature will be four degrees
Celsius higher than yesterday.

But it'll be windy morning and night.

JEOKRYONG TROOP REQUEST
TO CONDUCT TRAINING AT JIRISAN

THIRD BATTALION MARCHING ROUTE

ISEOK VALLEY, BAEKTOGOL

BAEKTOGOL

Gang Hyeon-jo.

Everything all right?

…suggest you bring an extra layer.

Hello, Haedong Ranger Station.

Oh, hello.

Is there something wrong?

We'll go and take a look.

All right.

What is it?

Grandma Geum-rye went hiking again.

Apparently, she isn't back.

They sure she went hiking?

Her hiking equipment is gone.

But she knows her way around.
She wouldn't get lost.

Who is this Grandma Geum-rye?

She lost her mother in Baektogol
as a child.

Now and then, she goes hiking illegally
to honor her mother.

She's pretty famous around here.

Baektogol.

We're here.

Is this a bullet mark?

Yeah, innocent people
used to be slaughtered here.

We call this the bullet tree.

Jeong Gu-yeong,
any news from Grandma Geum-rye?

Nope, nothing yet.

Her family is searching for her.
Did you arrive?

Yeah, she clearly was here, but it's odd.

She doesn't usually leave anything behind.

But she left everything behind today.

We'll continue to search the site.
You check the surveillance cameras.

There are no cameras
in the unauthorized areas.

There is one by the road nearby, remember?

Ask for police cooperation
and take a look.

What are you doing?

This is area has cell phone coverage.

If she's anywhere nearby,
we should hear her phone ringing.

It might be on silent mode.
Let's split up.

You go that way.

Wait.

Try Baektogol Dolmujiteo.

Why?

You see something again?

What did you see?

You never believed in
the Seven Wonders, right?

Just because you don't,
it doesn't mean they're all lies.

Egyptian pyramids, Moai statues,
and the Bermuda Triangle.

These wonders still exist today.

What's this nonsense?

Forget it.

If you can't believe me,

I'll go alone.

Hey!

What?

Wrong direction.

Follow me.

There's nothing there. You see anything?

I saw it. I'm sure it was here.

-I'm a fool for believing you.
-It's true. It was here.

Forget it.

Are you with the national park?

We're from the Haedong Ranger Station.

We heard about the military training.

Captain Gang?

Aren't you Captain Gang?

It's been a while.

Grandma Geum-rye back yet?

Not yet.

She didn't visit her friends, either.

Did you check the surveillance cameras?

I checked every roadside camera
near Baektogol,

but I didn't see her.

I think she's still in the mountains.

I heard you retired from the military,

but I never imagined you'd be here.

Is it because of that incident?

It was here, right?

Where Sergeant Kim was discovered.

How's the training?

Any accidents?

Accidents aren't uncommon.

We're finishing up tomorrow.

Do you usually patrol at this hour?

There's been a situation.

Have you seen an elderly woman?

No, we haven't seen any civilians.
Why do you ask?

A woman disappeared.

Her path coincides
with your training route.

Didn't anything catch your eye?

Lieutenant.

Yeah, what?

About before, when I fell behind.

This is Private Ahn Jae-seon.

He lost his canteen
by the Baektogol ridges three hours ago.

So he deviated from our route
and got lost for a while.

So? What happened then?

You saw a civilian?

Yes, the hiker said

he found a backpack
and was looking for its owner.

-What color was the backpack?
-It was pink.

Did it look like this?

That's correct.

Where was this place?

It was around 50 minutes into the march.

It was here.

It'll take us an hour via the shortcut.
Let's go.

Return safely.

Over there.

Is this her backpack?

Toxic laughing gym mushrooms.
Why are they here?

What are their side effects?

Nausea and vomiting.
Abdominal pain and hallucination.

If you take too much, you could die.

We have to find her quickly.

MUN-OK'S GRANDDAUGHTER, I-GANG

GRANDMA GEUM-RYE

Not picking up?

Wait a minute.

She isn't breathing!

I-gang.

Radio the station.

I-gang.

I-gang?

Sit down.

I'm okay.

Sit down. You can do that, right?

Breathe slowly. Take deep breaths.

One more time.

Gu-yeong, this is Hyeon-jo.

Yeah, how did it go? Did you find her?

She hasn't been in touch yet?

We found the missing person.

You found her? Is she all right?

She doesn't have a pulse.

She is dead.

The location?

Thirty meters northwest
of Baektogol Hyeongjebawi.

Thirty meters northwest
of Baektogol Hyeongjebawi.

I'll contact Bidam Shelter.

They'll take around two hours.

This is my second time…

seeing death on Jirisan.

That place earlier--

Dolmujiteo is where I lost my subordinate.

He was dear to me.

But he met a lonely death…

because of my greed.

At this rate, we might set a troop record.

Buckle up and pick up the speed.

-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

Let's go!

-Kim Hyun-su, you all right?
-Yes, I'm fine.

So you grew up near here?

Yes, sir.

Lucky you.

Absorb some hometown energy
and let's hustle!

Thank you, sir.

-Let's go!
-Yes, sir.

What do you mean,
Sergeant Kim disappeared?

-He just disappeared.
-When did you last see him?

Thirty minutes ago.

Sergeant Kim!

Sergeant Kim!

-Sergeant Kim!
-Sergeant Kim!

-Sergeant Kim!
-Kim Hyun-su!

Kim Hyun-su!

Kim Hyun-su! Hyun-su!

Hyun-su.

Hyun-su.

That's when I started to see

people dying on Jirisan.

At first,
I thought I was imagining things.

Yesterday afternoon at Jirisan,

a 70-year-old woman died
while descending the mountain.

The accident was caused by
fall protection ropes snapping.

Concerns have been voiced towards
the National Park's aged facilities.

After that incident,

I inevitably kept hearing

about accidents on Jirisan.

I was afraid to return here.

But it was the right thing to do.

Kim Sol told me…

"Something is lurking in Baektogol."

Whether it's a ghost or a mountain spirit,

I think it gave me this gift…

to save people.

I believed them.

What?

The Seven Wonders of the World.
I believed them when I was young.

FIRST LIEUTENANT CHOE GYU-YEON

-What is it?
-Captain Gang, help us.

Private Ahn disappeared.

What do you mean?

What is it?

Captain Gang!

-What's wrong?
-Tell him.

Private Ahn was on night watch,
but I think he was pretty sick.

He said he was going to vomit a little,
then I thought he went to sleep.

-Did you report this?
-No, it would take them hours to arrive.

-Wait. Did you say he vomited?
-Stay back!

We found traces of vomit
by the forest entrance.

We assumed he went in that direction,

so we went into the woods.

But we returned partway
because we almost lost our way.

Dalgwisup is a climax forest.

It's an endless forest
of identical-looking trees.

Even in daylight, many people
get lost walking in circles.

It's highly probable
that's what happened to him.

Keep checking the GPS while you search.

If it spins the same way,
you've begun walking in circles.

Do you think we'll find him?

You're not me.

You must return together.
Let's make that happen.

Private Ahn!

Jae-seon!

Ahn Jae-seon!

Private Ahn!

Jae-seon!

-Ahn Jae-seon!
-Private Ahn!

-Ahn Jae-seon!
-Ahn Jae-seon!

Private Ahn!

Jae-seon! Ahn Jae-seon!

Jae-seon!

Jae-seon!

-How's his pulse?
-It's not good.

Private Ahn. Private Ahn!

Call the helicopter. He's not doing well.

Medic. Medic!

Oh, my goodness.

Why did you leave like this?

You poor thing.

How did this happen?

FUNERAL CULTURAL CENTER

Are you okay?

I'll get going.

Take her home safely.

Cheer up.

You guys did what you could.

Apparently, Grandma Geum-rye
got confused before,

mistaking edible and poisonous mushrooms.

They do look similar.

But…

was I-gang okay?

When her parents died
in a flood in Dowon Valley,

she went

and found her parents'
dead bodies herself.

How so?

Damage control kept getting delayed
due to low personnel.

She couldn't wait any longer,
so she went herself.

She probably thought
they'd still be alive.

Anyway, she fainted
when she saw their bodies.

So she had to be carried back.

You don't easily forget such memories.

That's why she has a hard time
when she sees dead bodies.

Why continue doing this

if she's suffering so much?

Hear her story up to age 24.
You'll know then.

GAMNAMU-JIB

We're clos--

We're closed.

Any perks for being your subordinate?

No.

This tastes amazing!

Don't get used to it.
There is no second time.

Have some yourself.

Don't worry.

We don't sell sweet potato makgeolli.

Out with it.
You have something to say, right?

I visited Private Ahn.

He is recovering well.

JJIMDAK CHICKEN

Thank you, sir.

I heard it was food poisoning.

Yes, I ate something I shouldn't have.

I heard from First Lieutenant Choe.

You drank from the stream in the valley?

Yeah, I found my canteen,

but it was empty.

I was parched.

Who gave you the yogurt?

When I first saw you at Dolmujiteo,

you were fine.

If you'd drunk the stream water,

you would've been sick right away.

I won't tell First Lieutenant Choe

if you are honest.

Yogurt?

The hiker who found the backpack

told him "great job"
and gave him a yogurt.

He said he drank it
before he went to sleep.

That's when he started to
vomit and hallucinate.

Don't be ridiculous.

You don't get symptoms of poisoning
from drinking yogurt.

Someone was being chased at Dolmujiteo.

This person lost consciousness
and fell to the ground.

An empty bottle of yogurt
was next to that person too.

But that person wasn't Private Ahn,

because he was found at Dalgwisup.

Someone else lost consciousness
after drinking yogurt.

I'm grateful for your help this time.

If you hadn't suggested Dolmujiteo,

Private Ahn would be dead by now.

But I still don't understand
what you're seeing.

Kim Hyun-su! Hyun-su!

The height is different.

That didn't happen just now.

Hyun-su.

It was the day Hyun-su died.

I had seen one year into the past.

Someone murdered my colleague.

That person is…

still on the mountain.

And still continues

to kill people

on this mountain.

I saw a hand.
It had five fingernail marks.

We just have to find that person.

That's the culprit, for sure.

You're going to have to look elsewhere.

Explosion three kilometers into Saemagol.
Confirm search and rescue.

A man died because of our incompetence.

There was someone else besides us.

I'm finding that man,
no matter what it takes.

-I have to tell you something.
-A ranger?

That's him.

-What do you mean?
-This is the man.
