EPISODE 5

(controller clicking)

Darn it.

(door lock beeps)

(door opens)

(door closes)

(controller beeps)

This smells amazing.

Stop buying them.

-HIMCHAN: What?
-Games.

You didn't buy them.
I bought them with my own money.

That's why. You can't save money that way.

Can I if I don't buy games?

When will you buy a house like that?

You sound like you own a house yourself.

What will you do if I want to split
the deposit money and live on my own?

(sighs)

Come on, you're crossing the line.

I'm saying it could happen any day.

Here. Chicken, your favorite.

Eat up and live a long life. All right?

And try not to eat late at night.
You always go to bed right after you eat.

Oh, Mother. When did you get here?

SAEBYEOK: Look at the grease
floating here.

Is this an oil field or what?

That's the miracle
of creating something out of nothing.

SAEHA: If you keep acting
independently like this,

you'll be removed from your duties.

From all your duties, I mean.

(exhales deeply)

(somber music)

(breathes heavily)

I told you to keep the lid down!

(grunting on TV)

Keep the volume down.

Jeez.

(door opens)

(door closes)

(headphone beeps)

(Saebyeok sighs)

Darn it.

(phone clacking)

-(line rings)
-(sighs)

Can you talk now?

How are you?

Are you okay?

Word travels fast. I guess you heard
that I'm going to a good place.

I'm sorry.

SAEBYEOK (over phone):
If you're really sorry,

give me the latest information you've got.

The latest information?

SAEBYEOK: Anything about Kim Manok

or the woman.

I'll catch those punks and make a deal
with the Administration Bureau.

It doesn't matter to you
who catches them first, does it?

What makes you think so?

SAEBYEOK: What matters to you is that
they get caught.

Am I wrong?

Have you ever seen a ghost
caught on camera?

SAEHA: Do you know what we do these days?

Since Kim Manok vanished from the subway,

we're going through every surveillance
footage from every station.

But that's to no avail.

There's no way she was caught on camera.

Vanishing into thin air
is a piece of cake to her.

SAEBYEOK: What about Kim Manok?

SAEHA: He was only seen
getting on the subway.

It's an old subway line,
so there are no cameras on the train.

RUSTIC HANDMADE KALGUKSU

51SU 8346
73A 9602

SAEBYEOK: It may not be
a piece of cake for her, though.

What do you mean?

Her DNA is slightly out of alignment.

To be precise, there's something wrong
with the enzymes binding her DNA strands.

These enzymes need to function
for DNA strands to keep its structure.

What?

Simply put,

it's not possible for living things
to be like that,

biologically.

Are you saying she's really a ghost?

SAEBYEOK: No, I hope not.
That'd be too scary.

Sorry?

I mean…

What I mean is,

there must be an abnormal cause
for that to have happened.

What's most abnormal about her?

Do you mean her DNA abnormalities
were caused by teleportation?

If that's the case, teleportation
may not be as easy for her as we thought.

It might cause her pain or exhaustion.

I hope you're right, but…

What? You don't think so?

If it caused her extreme pain,
wouldn't she be refrain from teleporting?

You said you wondered

why she disappeared before your eyes

instead of fleeing with the culprit
beforehand?

The fact that she used her ability
when it wasn't necessary…

SAEBYEOK: Maybe it's not a big obstacle
for her.

Gosh, then there's really no clue.

No.

SAEBYEOK: People around Kim Manok
don't know anything either.

What people around him?

I went to the construction site
he last worked

and where he last lived.

No one knows anything, right?
We went there too.

Nothing at all.

(clicks tongue)

I went there for nothing.

By the way, did you learn
about her DNA abnormalities

from the NFS analysis report?
You said you didn't read it then.

What if I did?

-(controller clicking)
-Darn it.

(clicks tongue)

-SAEBYEOK: What if I read it?
-Gosh.

SAEBYEOK: What are you going to do?

Jeez, who is she nagging this time?

SAEBYEOK: You won't tell
Eojin about this, will you?

Eojin?

Anyway, I hope you're right about her DNA.

Then we can take advantage
of her weakness.

SEABYEOK: Who knows?

Maybe your guess is right.

It may have nothing to do
with her ability.

Who is she talking to? What ability?

SAEBYEOK: Forget how difficult it is
to deal with her.

I've only seen her once,
so I have nothing to go on.

I'll call you if I find anything
in the footage.

Don't get your hopes up though.

I will.

-SAEBYEOK: I'll have high hopes.
-(scoffs)

-Don't forget to call me.
-Jeez.

She's so clingy, isn't she?

SAEBYEOK: Okay. Bye.

I guess she's seeing someone,
but his parents don't approve of her.

Jeez.

Is that why she brought up the deposit?

Gosh, I don't have any money.

(exhales deeply)

(pensive music)

What should I do?

-(engines whooshing)
-(horns honking)

We checked all the CCTV footage from
inside and outside every subway station.

But he wasn't caught leaving anywhere.

Darn it.

To be honest, the way we work is

a little old-fashioned
and inefficient, isn't it?

Ms. Chae, you must know a cutting-edge
and efficient way to find him.

Please tell us.

(sighs)

Maybe we should change the way
we approach this, not the way we work.

-Like...
-For example,

if subway surveillance cameras
can't capture her,

we should make
the whole nation look for her.

Are you saying we should
put out an open APB for her?

No matter her abilities,

as long as she's a human,
she must eat and sleep.

She'll have to come in contact
with someone eventually.

Even if she does,
would people recognize her?

We don't even know our neighbors' faces.

We must make people recognize her.

We must make all 50 million people
in this country look for her.

She won't be able to escape that.

What if people get hurt?
She is currently protecting a murderer.

If an ordinary civilian
tries to report her,

will she let them do it?

She might appear and snap their neck.

It's like we're hopping on the ground,
trying to catch a bird flying in the sky.

We need to approach it in a different way.

What I meant to say is not
that we should make citizens do our job.

What do you suggest then?

We announce that the Grid broke down
and it'll collapse soon.

Are you out of your mind?

The Ghost built the Grid.

She built it herself using the technology
that didn't even exist back then.

If she hears that it's broken,
she'll try to fix it.

And she knows where to go to fix it.

So she'll come here?

Are you saying she'll voluntarily
come here to fix it?

Ms. Choi.

(line trilling)

Director. Do you have time now?

Can we have a video conference?

Okay.

Mr. Kim.

What is it?

The Grid has broken twice since
it was reported that the Ghost reappeared.

SAEHA: The Ghost must've seen it.
There's no way she could have missed it.

(suspenseful music)

(phones beeping)

"The Grid is broken. The magnetic
fields can no longer protect the earth."

EMERGENCY ALERT
COLLAPSE OF THE GRID, PLEASE EVACUATE

EMERGENCY ALERT

Traveling through time
may be dangerous for the Ghost too.

But she still appeared in 1997.

I don't think the Grid is needed
only for people of the 21st century.

It must be needed
even in the future she came from.

But what if we say it's broken?

She's a being that can teleport.

It's impossible for us to find her
because there's no fixed positional value.

Instead of looking for her,
we should make her come to us.

(alarm beeping)

(zapping)

(thuds)

(guns clicking)

MINISTER: That's easier said than done.

It won't be easy
even if she really does come.

While we discuss possibilities
without giving it a try,

another 24 years will be wasted.

(inhales sharply)

Well, let's say it does
make her come, Minister.

But to make that happen,

we need to make a fuss
as if the Grid would collapse any moment.

Have you thought through how chaotic
the whole country would become?

It will agitate people,

but the best in people
usually come out in times of crisis.

If it can be handled within a week,
it won't be that serious…

What about internationally, Minister?

What would other countries think of us?

They may think our technology is
so poor that we can't even

maintain the protective shield
over our own territory.

That'd be humiliating.
It'd completely hurt our country's image.

But if things go as planned,

it'll be the best year for the
Korean government in terms of diplomacy.

We'll be solving the biggest mystery
in modern human history.

No country has been able
to solve it for almost 30 years.

And the Korean government
will be solving it in 2021.

(scoffs)

And what if we also find out how the woman
was able to bring the future technology

to the year of 1997,

and monopolize it?
What do you think will happen?

(pensive music)

But…

if we fail?

A way to catch the woman
without bringing disgrace on our country?

There is.

We can offer a reward for her capture.

An amount that has never been seen before.

We should reveal her face to the public
so anyone can recognize her.

Then, anyone who comes in contact
with her can report her.

Then a lot of women will suffer.

There are already tons of people
who would even chase murderers

if it could increase the number of views.

We wouldn't be able to stop people

from harassing
or secretly photographing innocent women.

Then let's also offer a reward for
the convenience store murderer's capture.

Aren't they accomplices?

Call them a killer couple
and put them on the wanted list.

That's a good idea.

Why are they a killer couple?
Because they've already killed before.

Do you think they'll just let people
report them to the police?

Will she voluntarily come to us?

Or will we find her
by using all of our 50 million citizens?

We already know
which is more likely to happen.

We should try the more probable one.

If we corner her like that, she might just
go back to where she came from.

And if she flees, it's all over.
Do you want to wait another few decades?

Using the citizens is too risky.

If we announce the Grid is about
to collapse, the Grid Control Team…

will be the first to be held accountable.
Isn't that why you're against it?

If someone has to be held accountable,
it'll be the two of you.

Director and Deputy Director.

If we announce
that the Grid has broken down,

whatever the result is,

you'll have to apologize to the public
and step down.

The director can just go back to teaching.

And the deputy director
who has devoted her life to this…

Why do you think I've devoted my life?

Whether I step down or apologize,
let me think about it later.

(Minister sighs)

JONGYI: I think…

we need to find
a fundamental solution to this.

Go on.

To fight against someone
who travels through time,

we need a time machine as well.

I suggest that we start developing one.

Well, that's already being taken care of.

What?

It's already being developed?

A time machine?

(sighs)

Where?

How can I work there?

(sighs)

What's your major?

My major? It's comparative literature.

Too bad. Everyone who works there
has a doctorate in engineering.

I agree that
this is a big opportunity for the country.

But the risks are…

Boy.

If they succeeded,
they should be here now.

Even if they succeeded in developing it
hundreds of years from now,

they developed it for this moment,
so they should be here right now.

If not, that means they failed.

And that suggests
you need more than engineers.

Ms. Chae Jongyi.

-Let's talk without your subordinates.
-Yes, sir.

-Mr. Kim.
-(door opens)

Putting them on the wanted list
will only make her more alert.

If you announce the Grid is broken
on top of that, would she buy that?

Then let's not say it's broken.

You two.

Jeez.

Do you think they're really
developing a time machine?

Or was he mocking me?

(exhales deeply)

Is this…

really necessary?

(beeps)

OCTOBER 7, 2021
DONGSIN-RO 21-GIL

Major Im Jiyu.

Do you recognize this?

That's one of my agents.

It's a scar he got when he was hit
in the back of the neck by Alpha.

MAY 18, 1997
INSTITUTE OF RADIO RESEARCH

May 18, 1997. It's that day.

Both wounds were caused
by the same weapon.

This is the person who died in 1997?
At the Institute of Radio Research?

And this happened a few days ago?

Yes, what we've found out
about these scars so far

is that they were formed by electrical
stimulation through a superconductor.

It's absolutely impossible
with current technology, Minister.

Superconductors only work below -100°C.

A weapon? It's...

That's right. In other words,
the person the Secretariat calls the Ghost

and the Grid Control Team calls
the Founder is definitely that woman.

From 1997

until now, 2021.

Minister.

We've been waiting for this one person
for 24 years.

MS. CHOI: We mustn't lose her.

(tense music)

Let's go.

Where to, sir?

The Blue House.

(suspenseful music)

The President should have the final say.

(suspenseful music continues)

"It's been over 100 years…

Facing difficulty in utilizing…

In 2020…

Succeeded in developing..."

-(door opens)
-(approaching footsteps)

(door closes)

How is she these days?

There were times
when someone had to watch her 24/7

because she'd go into convulsions often.

But that no longer happens these days.

You didn't have to come back.

I know.

We've done everything we could.

The decision is now in their hands.

How did you figure out the connection
between the Ghost and the Grid?

We've never officially admitted it.

I've read
all the relevant research papers.

No research was conducted on it
before 1997.

The order should be a theory, research,

and then implementation.
But it was the opposite for the Grid.

The research papers started
to come out after 1997

when the Institute of Radio Research
was elevated to the AB.

And in the same year,
the Secretariat was founded.

That's when my seniors started
searching for an unidentified woman.

The keyword was teleportation.

(snorts)

I hate engineering majors.

I've always loathed them.

Since working at the IRR?

To the scientists there, we were nothing

but their private secretaries
who helped them with their taxes.

I'm sure
not all scientists were like that.

Maybe.

Actually, I didn't know many of them.

On the outside,
we seemed to be working as a team,

but the scientists in the research lab
and the administrative staff

worked in different buildings.

We even sat separately in the cafeteria.

You didn't know them very well then.

I'll get going.

(phone buzzing)

Hello, Director.

(suspenseful music)

CLOTHES FITTING AND REPAIR

(foreboding music)

(foreboding music continues)

(cocks gun)

DEALER: I guess you've used it before.

-Three million won for ten.
-I brought the amount you asked for.

SINWOO BANK
BAE JUNHYUNG

It'll leave a transaction record.

It's your problem if you get caught.

You don't need bullets
if you're not going to fire it.

(tense music)

TRANSFER 3,000,000 WON?

TRANSFERRING

Okay…

(somber music)

Mom.

Mom.

(clanking)

Mom.

-(sobbing)
-Mom…

(sobs, sniffles)

(sniffles, whimpers)

(sobbing)

(both crying)

Mom…

(somber music)

(somber music continues)

We're almost there, Mom.

Almost…

(tires screeching)

(foreboding music)

(robot whirring)

(suspenseful music)

We need to move to a different office?

Gosh, that's ridiculous.

For real?

What's going on? Are we really moving?

(suspenseful music continues)

(whirring)

Tell everyone in Planning, Finance,
and Data Processing

to work from home for now.

Only a skeleton staff will stay
in the building.

Yes, ma'am.

But our work can only be done
in the control room.

What are we supposed to do?

Say something abnormal has been detected
in the control room and shut it down.

Are you trying to break the Grid for real
like the rumor we'll spread?

What rumor?

Empty the office right now.

That little…

She must be enjoying this.

(sighs)

(machine trilling)

(foreboding music)

(clatters)

MAJOR:
The teleportation device is the key.

Regardless of type or shape,
there must be some kind of device.

As soon as Alpha shows up,
you must take that device from her.

This isn't a tranquilizer gun.

Has the firearms ban been lifted?

Of course, capturing her alive
would be the best.

MAJOR: It won't end
with just an injury this time.

As soon as she shows up,
shoot her in the hand.

Disarm her.

If that fails,

kill her.

But orders to capture her…

Whether we lose everything or secure
at least her body and the device…

depends on you guys.

Yes, sir.

(cocks gun)

(thrilling music)

(thrilling music continues)

-Is it ready?
-AGENT (over radio): Yes, it's connected.

The lobby is all set.
I'm going down to the basement.

AGENT (over radio): Okay.

JONGYI: Online streamers
are already going wild.

It's 700 million won for each of them.

It's the highest bounty ever.

But the Ghost must be aware
that she's wanted.

Do you think she'll buy it?

When did they say they'd put out an APB?

(suspenseful music)

TIP-OFF REWARD: 700 MILLION WON

(indistinct chatter)

-Hey, what's that?
-What?

-Look at that.
-Wow, the reward is 700 million won.

-Seven…
-Then if we capture both of them…

-Isn't it 1.4 billion won?
-What, 1.4 billion won?

They must be brutal criminals.

I know.

STUDENT 1: It's my first time seeing
a wanted poster with a reward.

-STUDENT 2: I know.
-STUDENT 3: Me too.

My gosh.

All right! Hi, guys.

I'm Samgu of Samgu TV.
Why am I here today?

You guys all saw it, right?

Yes, it's been on the news too.
The reward of 700 million won!

It's 1.4 billion won in total.

If we win that money,
we can remodel our lives.

What? Nonsense?

What the heck? I should just slap you…

Gosh.

There are a lot of pretty girls out today.

Oh!

Excuse me.

Excuse me. Wait.

Yes, this is it!

This hood! Right?

-Right, guys? Wait!
-What do you think you're doing?

Don't get me wrong.
I just want to talk to you.

I'm not a weirdo.

You know Samgu TV, right? Samgu TV.
Let's just talk for a moment.

-Let go.
-Don't go.

SAMGU: Darn it!

What's wrong with her?

Did she think I was interested in her?

Jeez.

Oh!

(grumbles)

-Excuse me! Mr. Kim Manok!
-Let go!

Oh! Mr. Kim Manok! Hey, guys!
Hold this guy! Hurry!

-Let go!
-Mr. Kim Manok.

-Let go!
-Let's just talk for a minute.

SAMGU: Let's just talk.
Hey, hold him! Darn it!

Should I quit my job
and become a bounty hunter?

I'll make big bucks if I catch the guy.

-The Grid is a kind of shield…
-(Saebyeok scoffs)

I know it's urgent, but…

It sure is. You're the one
who brought up the deposit.

If I catch both of them,
I can buy an apartment.

(sighs)

This isn't some kind of game.

If it were a game,
I would've already crushed them.

This is the guy
who kicked you off the wall.

I'll teach him a lesson if I catch him.

Sis, I'm the only one
who cares about you, right?

Come on.

-Who am I talking to?
-(door opens)

You can't plug that in there.

What?

-But this is the only outlet...
-You can't.

(exhales deeply)

(thuds)

TIP-OFF BOARD

(phone ringing)

Hello?

Yes, you can report it to us.

JONGYI: Where did you see him?

You shouldn't make prank calls,
Mr. Yoon Subin living of Seonheung-dong.

Isn't this Yoon Subin? Guo Middle School,
Class 4. Should I call and check?

(line beeping)

(phone buzzing)

MS. CHOI: Come on in.

(exhales sharply)

Tip-off number 924.

SAEHA: I think you should check it out.

I guess we've finally got something
that's not bullcrap.

(phone buzzing)

(suspenseful music)

-You two go.
-Yes, ma'am.

MS. CHOI: Where's Mr. Song?

-Take Ms. Chae with you.
-Yes, ma'am.

SAEHA (over phone):
The Grid hasn't broken down, right?

(exhales deeply)

It has something to do
with the APB, right?

We don't really
have to evacuate people, right?

You know I can't tell you anything.

It's a lie then.

Thank you for your answer.

You should know this.

It was probably a good idea
for the Administration Bureau.

But you just disturbed public order.

(sighs)

Don't blame me. It wasn't my idea.

If it wasn't yours,

was it your colleague's?

My colleague?

Was it Mr. Kim Saeha's idea?

How do you know him?

Do you call each other by name?

SAEHA (over phone):
What's it to you? Forget it.

And the same goes for the reward.

There are tons of people crazy about
money. How could you use them like this?

Well, since there are many,
we should make use of them.

Productively.

(scoffs)

I really hope no one gets hurt
because of this.

(phone beeps)

"Mr. Kim Saeha"?

(sighs)

(suspenseful music)

(cocks gun)

FIREARMS WITHDRAWAL RECORD

CORPORAL JUNG SAEBYEOK

Welcome.

MAN 1: Is this her?

MAN 2: Yes, it is her.

MAN 1: No, it's not.

MAN 2: Yes, it is.

-I think it's her.
-MAN 1: No, it's not.

MAN 2: Miss, what's your name?

MAN 1: We're asking your name.

Come on. That's not what matters.
What matters is what she looks like.

That's why I'm asking her name.
She looks similar.

Yes, doesn't she?

If she loosens her hair.

Oh, be careful.

JANITRESS: Goodness,
there's trash all over here.

-Good gracious.
-What's with her?

-Why is only this spot so dirty?
-Hey.

-Hey…
-Hey, it's dusty!

I know. It's really dusty here.

These pieces of trash
that should be burned. Goodness!

(groaning)

Hey. Do you want to die?

No, who would want to die?
Let go of me, please.

(grunting)

(exhales)

When two or more people gather
to assault, threaten, or incite sedition,

they may face up to ten years in prison.

But…

judges will probably release them.

You should dress like that all the time.

You look much better
when you're neatly dressed.

I thought you were homeless.
I worried for nothing.

Is there any place
someone would hide around here?

JANITRESS: In this station?

I'm not sure if there is any.

SAEBYEOK: Empty storage rooms or such?

All the storage rooms here
are frequented by workers like me.

I see.

May I ask how long
you've been working here?

It's been about a year now.

Then have you seen these people
around here recently?

(sucks teeth)

No, I don't think I have.

-Thank you.
-Sure.

By the way…

Thank you.

Sure.

Have a good day.

(train honking in distance)

(both panting)

That's 700 million won.

-It's her.
-Get her!

(silence)

(train honking in distance)

(breathing heavily)

(exhales deeply)

(suspenseful music)

(rasping)

SAEHA: Is there any place
someone would hide around here?

Empty storage rooms or such?

MANOK: Hey.

Right.

(panting)

Goodness, she's already gone?

I should've told her about that.

(door closes)

(phone buzzing)

Hello?

SAEHA (over phone): You called earlier.
I'm sorry. I wasn't able to answer.

Where are you…

Are you out?

SAEBYEOK: Yes, at Gudong Station.

Gudong Station?

SAEBYEOK: I want to get the reward too.

Detective.

SAEBYEOK: We must catch either the woman
or the murderer to end this disaster.

I may not be able to catch the woman,
but I'll catch Kim Manok.

(clicks tongue)

Do you think Kim Manok is still there?

You said he was last seen here.

Then I should start from here.

GUDONG STATION FLOOR PLAN

Did you know a new railroad was
planned to be built at Gudong Station?

(foreboding music)

SAEBYEOK: But the plan was canceled,

and some of the area for it
was abandoned too.

(foreboding music)

A dead space that was supposed
to be used as a passageway.

It's a completely isolated space.

SAEHA: She's someone
who can go anywhere she wants.

She may be
on the other side of the Earth now.

And you're looking for her there?

(breathing heavily)

There can't be anything here.

SAEBYEOK: That's what I thought at first,

but the text messages
she sent to Kim Manok bother me.

The bathroom.

The truck.

She told him the escape routes.

(suspenseful music)

What if…

she can only teleport alone?

(thrilling music)

MANOK: Open this.

-Open this!
-(screams)

Open this!

(screaming)

(pants)

SAEBYEOK: If she could disappear
with someone else, why would she text him?

She could've just disappeared
with Kim Manok…

(janitress screaming)

-Detective?
-SAEBYEOK: Ma'am!

Detective.

-Detective! Hello...
-(line beeps)

(breathing heavily)
Over there.

Ma'am.

-Please go bring a station worker.
-Sorry?

Go bring a station worker.

Oh, okay.

And ma'am, don't come back here.

(breathes heavily)

(thrilling music)
