THE PLACES, CHARACTERS,
ORGANIZATIONS

AND CASES DEPICTED
ARE FICTIONAL.

When I was lost here before,
I saw yellow ribbons.

They weren't pointing to the peak,

but the opposite direction.

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

And the yellow ribbon?

Why are you asking
about the yellow ribbon?

Did anything else happen?
Did you see anyone suspicious?

No. I didn't.

Someone murdered my colleague.

Who gave you the yogurt?

The hiker who found the backpack
gave him a yogurt.

He said he drank it
before he went to sleep.

That's when he started to
vomit and hallucinate.

That person is still on the mountain.

And still continues

to kill people on this mountain.

I-gang, I didn't know you were here.

I'm sorry that I screamed and scared you.

Did you just get here?

Did you see anyone on your way in?

No, I didn't.

More importantly,

I have to tell you something.

Did you check
the remote surveillance cameras?

The thing is, I checked all of them and--

That, that, that!

Look at that.

How can a twig move on its own?

Also, earlier,
no one else was there with me,

but the twig just broke by itself.

-And it became dark.
-Dowon Valley.

And it was so windy.

-I'm so scared.
-Dowon Valley, Sumgol Rock.

-What?
-Someone's going to die there.

We have to go there.

This is Haedong Station.

A distress call has been made
from Sumgol Rock in Dowon Valley.

Repeat, a distress call from Sumgol Rock.

-Seseok One. One kilometer from Dowon.
-Bidam One.

Patrolling scenic trail
two kilometers from Sumgol Rock.

-Moving to site.
-Moving to site also.

What's the patient's condition?

It seems urgent.

The line went dead after
he said he was lost.

I-gang, you just made a false report.

You sure about this?

This is Haedong Station.

What's your status? Are you there yet?

We found the missing person!

Loosen his belt. Hold him, hold him.

Turn him to the side! His mouth! Mouth!

Hold him.

NATIONAL PARKS

SEONGJIN HOSPITAL

Hey.

Oh, how is he?

We saved him in the nick of time.

Luck was on his side.

He's recovering
after they pumped his stomach.

What exactly happened to him? Did you ask?

He said he drank some yogurt.
It seems like that was the problem.

Yogurt?

Apparently, someone left one
by the stream.

He figured they wanted to
lighten their load.

He was also thirsty so he drank it.

Wait!

Where did you get that yogurt?

Did someone give it to you?
Or was it on the ground?

Why do you ask? Can't we bring some?

-No--
-It's not even alcohol.

Wait, can we not have yogurt
on the mountain?

All right. Have a safe hike.

Why do you keep doing that?

Did the police even investigate
Geum-rye's incident?

I told you that they concluded
that it was an accident.

I met Private Ahn again.

He said that he saw that hiker
zipping up the backpack.

That hiker could have placed
the poisonous mushrooms in there

to make it look like she died
from eating those mushrooms.

But when he was caught red-handed,

he attempted to kill Private Ahn too.

Do you remember what he looked like?

Of course.

He was around 5'7".

His face was just ordinary.

He couldn't have been older
than early 30s.

Black shirt with a white pattern.

He was also wearing khaki hiking pants.

We just have to find that man.

I'm sure he's the culprit.

That's all speculation.

You think the cops are going to buy that?

Her family is suffering enough as it is.

We can't make them suffer
even more with unproven theories.

Oh, hello.

No, please. Don't get up.

I have to thank you.

Oh, no. We were just doing our job.

Still.

I just had a few questions for you.
No pressure.

That yogurt,

where and how did you find it?

Did you see anyone suspicious?

I wouldn't be here, if I'd seen someone.

No one was there to help.
My phone had no service.

I kept throwing up.

I thought I was gonna die.

I guess that story was true, then.

-The story about the ghost.
-A ghost?

Lately, a male ghost
has been wandering the mountain.

They say if you see him,
you die soon after.

I didn't believe it at first either,

but I saw him a few days ago
with my own eyes.

Yes, on my way.

At first, I thought it was a ranger,
so I hid.

But it was strange.

He was all bloody.

A ranger?

That insignia on your uniform.

He had one just like that
on the back of his jacket.

It was a white jacket
that came all the way down here.

Anyway, I saw it on his back.

Do you mean a snowsuit?

I wouldn't know what that is.

Was this the outfit?

That's him!

What do you mean?

This is the man!

The ghost that I was talking about!

I'm sure this was the man.

Who is this?

Is he really a ranger?

Why did he have so much blood on him?

What you don't understand
isn't always a lie.

Gave a gift-- To save a person--

I saw where people
went missing on this mountain.

Gang Hyeon-jo!

Yes?

I-gang, it's been too long.

Are you well?

Are you going to your rehab regularly?

So, how can I help you today?

It's about

Hyeon-jo.

How is he?

He's good.

I was wondering,

has he regained consciousness?

No, there's no change.

But he's hanging in there quite well.

Okay, thank you.

Is that you, I-gang?

I heard you were back and you are.

I was really worried about you.

I'm glad you look healthy.

If you're going back to the station,
may I give you a lift?

Oh, no, that's okay.

Okay, then.

A while back,

you told me that…

anything is possible on the mountain.

Yes.

You think there's a ghost there?

Do you think all those tales about
the mountains could be false?

Jirisan is also called
the "mountain of patience."

A lot of people hike it for reasons

other than just pleasure.

They have deep-seated anguish.

Ghosts are all about that.

If someone had a strong enough desire,

they might remain
on that mountain as a ghost.

I guess you're right.

I should get going now.

-What's up?
-My gosh!

What do you mean?

Women do not like stuff like this.

No wonder Yang-seon always says no to you.

Ms. Lee Yang-seon?

Are you two dating?

More like unrequited love.

It's not unrequited.

She's looking at me differently
these days.

She'll think you're a pervert
if you take her here.

Is it that weird?

She won't love it.

It'll ruin her makeup.

She'll have to redo her makeup
after washing up.

-How'd you know? Did you go with a girl?
-Yes.

Then where should I take her?

Why are you asking us that?

Ask Yang-seon.

Do I have to cancel all this?
It took forever.

Hey, do guys take off their shirts here?

Yeah, want to go?

SPECIES RESTORATION CENTER

What's that noise?

What do you mean?

It's black bears.

There are bears here?

Not just bears,
but water deer, raccoons, snakes.

They study every animal and plant
on Jirisan.

Wait, why did you suddenly bring me here?

Just follow me.

Hey, there.

What did you call me for this time?

Who's this? A newbie?

Hello, I'm Gang Hyeon-jo.

Have some, if you'd like.

Don't eat it. It's for the bears.

My bears are clean.

They only eat sliced pieces.

Whatever. What do you want?

-Is this a Korean rat snake?
-That's right.

We've doing research on these
endangered species.

So we put tracking chips in ten of them
and released them.

But number four suddenly disappeared.

What's its last location?

Next to Bamgol.

But we can't find its signal
anywhere close by.

It may have crossed over
to the Haedong Station area.

Could you be on the lookout for it
when you're out on patrol?

This is the tracking device.

Dr. Yoon.

You still don't get it after
all these years on the mountain?

You have to have to look elsewhere,
not the mountain.

Welcome.

Did you need something?

Are you two married?

Something to help you make babies?

Snake heads are the best for women.

Nothing like that.

Something for his stamina, perhaps?

You came to the right place.

How about turtle stew?

Turtle stew is our specialty.

Come on, sir.

Don't you have anything
that's really effective?

You know, like…

a snake, maybe?

You sure about that place?

If the snake disappeared in Bamgol,
it should be around here.

That store has been doing
unexpectedly well recently.

-I'm sure it's that place.
-I doubt this is the place.

This should ring within
a 700-meter radius,

but it's not picking up any signal.

I threw him a bone, so let's wait.

They'll make a move soon.

You guys study mushrooms
at the center, right?

Do you also study
spectacular rustgill mushrooms?

It's a poisonous mushroom.

Of course we do.

Can an average person extract poison
from those mushrooms?

That's probably difficult.

You need proper equipment to do that.

But why do you ask?

He thinks that someone's been adding

that mushroom poison to yogurt
to kill people on the mountain.

-Really?
-I mean--

-Who? Why?
-It's just his speculation.

So it's possible then?

I can't say that it's impossible.

They'd have to know the geography
and vegetation of Jirisan well.

They would also have to know
how to extract the poison.

Only park employees would know how.

Why would a national park employee

do something like that?

Oh, wait. Wait, wait.

Oh, there!

-Take this.
-Yeah, got it.

Follow them. Hurry!

Wait. Let me get my belt.

BOK WELLNESS STORE

You're too close.

At this rate, they'll see us.

We're getting a signal.

Damn it. What's taking them so long?

Shall we go in now?

Wait a minute.

Shouldn't we call the cops first?

I-gang. I-gang!

Freeze!

I-gang!

Who are you to tell us what to do?

Does that mountain belong to you?

There are laws that protect wildlife.

Did you really not know?

Look at this.

"Those who process, store, and distribute
endangered species

may face up to two years in prison

or may be fined up to 20 million won."

Stop talking about
things you don't know, you brat!

My family has been collecting herbs

and hunting animals on that mountain
for generations.

You've got to be kidding me.
Aren't you proud?

What did you say? Get over here.

What? Here I am!

What are you going to do?

-You want to go?
-Why, you little--

National park, my foot!

Is it people over nature,
or nature over people?

Is that why you have so many rat snakes?

Why don't you make them go extinct?

You little snake.

-Okay, stop!
-You punk, what did the snakes do to you?

How many did you capture?

I knew you were trouble when you winked.

-Get that punk!
-Hey, you!

-What's the big deal?
-Oh, yeah?

-Why do you care?
-Let's go!

Let go of me!

Let me go!

-What the hell?
-Let me go! Damn it!

Is that the rookie?

Yeah.

He's a handsome guy,
but he seems pretty square.

He's not that square.
He's just not that normal.

So, he's not normal?

That's unfortunate for such a young man.

Twenty-three black rat snakes,
18 yellow rat snakes,

fifty-three tiger keelbacks.

That's 94 in total.

Great job.

Thank you.

Good work.

Oh, here.

Let's head back.

Yes, ma'am.

This is much more rugged
than the other restricted areas.

Not even herb poachers come here.

Animals thrive here
because there are no humans.

Also,

this is the only graveyard
where you can see Cheonwangbong.

Is this the spot?

It is. It's here.

Nothing else, right?

Yes, there's nothing else.

Let's go back down.

It's time for special patrol.

Why did you come with me
without complaint this time?

You always tell me that
I'm talking nonsense.

You didn't say anything
like that today. It's weird.

After all, you are Seo Devil.

Boy, you're asking for it.

Little punks. Who do they think they are?

Hurry before the sun sets.

What if we get caught again?

Then how will we pay the fine?

Are we going to starve our kids?

Kill or be killed.

What are you doing? Go up there.

How could there be a graveyard
like that in a national park?

Isn't personal property
subject to demolition?

They were here before
this became a national park.

And some families refused to move them.

Just like that one.

Chuseok is over,
but Hansik is too far away.

There'll be no visitors for a while,
so no accidents either.

Families aren't the only visitors.

Many wild animals gather
around the graves as well.

Cold-blooded creatures like snakes

are often found under tombstones.

Haedong One,
explosion three kilometers into Saemagol.

Check for a distress call!

I-gang, don't come up! Stay there!

Potato bombs?

That's right.

In the '60s and '70s, these homemade
bombs were used by bear poachers.

Bear liver and gall bladder used to be
really expensive back then.

Knowing that, poachers planted
these all over the mountain.

They're basically mines.

These were here this entire time?

When this became
a national park in the '60s,

everyone, including the locals,
helped remove

hazardous objects left behind.

But they couldn't reach
the deeper restricted areas.

After all, it's Jirisan.

This junk is decades old. It still works?

The outer surface of a potato bomb
is completely sealed with wax.

Wind or rain can't penetrate,

so the detonator and explosive
were still working inside.

They just had to go to a place
they were told not to.

I have something to say.

We were patrolling that area
before the explosion.

We did a thorough search
around the graveyard

for any dangerous objects,

but the bomb wasn't there at the time.

Is that true?

Yes.

Are you sure you were thorough?

You sure you didn't confuse it
with grass or a tree branch?

No. There really was nothing there.
I'm quite sure.

You're absolutely certain?

If you're not sure, this looks really bad.

It means a man just died

because of a park ranger's mistake.

Oh, no, no.

Take me with you, son.

Take me with you, my boy.

How can you go before me?

You!

What exactly is it that you do?

You spoke as if you owned this mountain.

What were you doing

while my husband died like that?

Please calm down.

My husband died in front me.

How can you say that?

Bring my husband back. Bring him back!

Bring my husband back.

Please accept our condolences

for your husband's horrible accident.

"Accident"?

Did you say "accident"?

But I saw those two people on the mountain

with my own eyes that day.

What were they doing there?

What were they doing
until the bomb went off?

The reason my husband went to
the mountain that day

was because of you.

You stole all of our snakes.

We went to the mountain
to just make a living!

You're the ones…

who killed my husband!

I refuse

to let my husband go like this.

-Come to your senses.
-I'm going to stay here with him

until you take responsibility
for his death!

-Come to your senses.
-My husband!

Oh, you poor thing!

It's unfair. It's unfair.

Oh, you poor thing!

Bring my husband back!

WHO IS AT FAULT?

PARK'S NEGLIGENCE CLAIMS LIFE

They've been like that for days now.

We need to come up with a plan.

It's still very hot during the day.

The body will start to rot. Then what?

The media will become relentless.

Why don't we offer some kind
of compensation for their loss?

We can't do that.

It's unfortunate what happened to him,

but it happened in a restricted area.

If we compensate,

we undermine our own authority when
trying to keep hikers out of such areas.

We can't just leave them there though.

We'll have to take some responsibility.

You're right.

Someone needs to take responsibility.

Hey, Seo I-gang.

Is it true that you visited that area
before the explosion?

You should've recognized and
removed such a dangerous object.

What's up with Haedong Station these days?

Hey, have you ever seen a potato bomb?

You've only heard about them, huh?

You have to know what one looks like
to remove it.

You think I'm only talking about that?

Remember Grandma Geum-rye?

Why are there so many incidents?

As a team leader,
let me just say one thing.

Stay focused.

You keep saying,
"Team leader, team leader."

If it makes you that angry, get promoted.

Sir, what happened?

What did the commissioner say?

The commissioner will take
full responsibility

and tender his resignation.

Captain.

Hyeon-jo told the truth.

During the patrol,
there was nothing at the grave.

Someone put it there
after we patrolled the area.

If we find that man,

we can prove we're not at fault.

All right, let's say there was a man
who placed the bomb there intentionally.

But finding that man is
the police's responsibility.

But--

We have a different job.

It's to protect those who
go up the mountain.

The locals are the ones
who go up there the most.

Regaining their trust

is our top priority.

That's all.

Bring him back!

Bring him back to me!

Bring him back to me!

Bring him…

back to me.

How am I supposed to go on?

I said bring him back to me.

Dad.

Dad.

Let's go back.

I can't let this go.

Don't make this worse.

The commissioner barely
put this to rest with his resignation.

I saw a hand.

There were five scratches on it

as if a small animal had clawed it.

I can't

forget that hand.

Stop it.

That day on the mountain,

there was someone else
besides us and the couple.

I'm going to find that man,

no matter what it takes.

Hey.

What brings you here?

I have a question for you.

This won't take long.
Do you mind waiting a little?

These were all found in Jirisan.

Bears, raccoons, snakes, badgers.

They're used to capture wild animals.

This time, a man was sacrificed, though.

JIRISAN NATIONAL PARK RANGER

TOWN HALL MEETING
ABOUT SUSPICIOUS OBJECTS

-Damn it.
-Damn it.

Shelter duties keep me busy enough.

Why is the newbie sick, today of all days?

It's odd, if you think about it.

Where did he go when he's so sick?

-He wasn't at the dorm, either.
-No?

He must be really sick.

He called to tell me that he wanted
a checkup at a bigger hospital.

What?

A checkup? What's the matter with him?

His head.

His head?

-A headache?
-Hey.

We won't have enough drinks.
Someone, get some more.

-Yes, ma'am.
-No, I'll go get some.

Yang-seon, you want to come with me?
Let's go.

-Why is everyone so awkward today?
-No. Hey, bring those.

Why did those two go together?

Potato bombs?

Yes.

I heard you were studying
the potato bomb that was found.

Is that bomb really one of the ones
poachers used in the '60s?

Is it possible that someone may have
made it recently, modeling the old ones?

No.

Neither the detonator nor the charge
in that bomb are made anymore.

I'm sure that bomb was one of
the ones poachers used in the past.

You said that long ago there was
a massive cleanup of those potato bombs.

Where did they keep the ones
they found then?

Maybe a museum

or a national park?

Why would a national park
keep such dangerous items?

They disassembled them upon discovery
and incinerated them.

Oh, I see.

But why are you asking about the bomb?

You don't think
this is an accident either?

No, I don't.

It's unlikely that it was intentional.

Of course, there were reports that

some people from town
found them and kept them.

But I heard they were all confiscated.

They kept the bombs?

Who?

Some workers from the cleanup
kept them as souvenirs.

Is there a record of their names?

As I already told you,

there's very little possibility.

That's okay.

Wow.

I don't have a list of names.

But I can introduce you to
one of the workers.

He probably knows the other workers.

-Let me carry those too.
-No, it's okay.

No, really.

I've been working out my biceps.

This is so light. So light.

Oh, wait. This is heavy.

Are you troubled
by these recent events too?

Potato bombs or junk bombs…

Who is it?

…how are they still there on the mountain?

Don't worry too much.

It won't happen again.

We need something to lift our spirits.

Would you like to go somewhere with me
on our next day off?

There's a goat milking festival
called "Dance with Goats."

I heard it's really fun.

Do you want to go goat milking with me?

I--

I'm sorry, but I need to go
to the ranger station.

Okay.

She blew me off again.

What am I doing wrong?

Anyone home?

Is anyone home?

Who are you?

Hello, I work at the national park.

The national park?

Mr. Kang from the Species
Restoration Center told me about you.

I heard you were part of the dangerous
objects cleanup efforts at Jirisan.

Yes, so what?

I wanted to ask about potato bombs
in particular.

-I don't know anything.
-Wait.

I know you had nothing to do with this.

I just have to check something.

Do you know anything about
the recent incident?

I told you, I know nothing.

The bombs went missing.

The bombs went missing?

I know I placed them here,

but they just disappeared.

I didn't say anything because I didn't
want people to get the wrong idea.

Could you just look the other way?

I have a granddaughter to think about.

Granddaughter?

Good morning.

-Where are the locals?
-It's almost time, but they're not here.

Oh, I see Grandma. Hello!

Thank you for your hard work.

Hello, ma'am.

Damn it, girl.
You haven't called for days.

Are you eating well?

It's not just me.
We've all been preoccupied.

Are you okay?

Ma'am, did you come alone?
What about the rest?

They all told me they would come.

Oh, there they are.

Thank you for coming.

I'm not here to forgive you.

I came to hear what you have to say.

Hey,

why don't we go in?

Come along.

VILLAGE HALL

If this gets out,

she might get in trouble at work.

You're her colleague.

Could you just turn a blind eye
this one time?

I saw a hand.

There were five scratches on it

as if a small animal had clawed it.

Three bombs went missing.
There's still one left.

She might know something.

He's Yang-seon's relative?

-That's the man.
-Where's Yang-seon?

Yang-seon!

If we believed you from the start,
could we have saved her?

Someone caught on to us.

It's a national park employee.

You're the only one I can trust.

Can you help me?

I can prove that he's the culprit.
