THAT DAY...

WAS JUST ANOTHER ORDINARY DAY

Our set menu includes Americanos, any drip coffee or latte...

We have your drinks ready, ma'am.

- Thank you. - Enjoy.

Hey, wait a second. Don't watch without me.

Thank you.

Firstly...

an angel appears to prophesy.

The angel says the name of the recipient first.

They are then told when they will die, and that they are bound for Hell.

When the time comes,

the executors of Hell...

are going to fulfill the prophecy.

If you're watching this for the first time,

- you may find it shocking. - He looks completely normal.

But why is he bullshitting everyone?

- I couldn't believe it either. - Wait, people actually believe this crap?

Yeah. There are actually a lot of people who believe it.

He has a bunch of videos that back him up on his YouTube channel.

Okay, yeah.

Con men like him can exploit people because of idiots like you.

Don't take this seriously, all right?

Wait, you are taking this seriously, aren't you?

So?

Watch it again and see if you still feel the same.

This is all CGI!

No, it's not.

NOVEMBER 10, THURSDAY

NOVEMBER 10, THURSDAY

- What is happening? - What's going on?

- Sir. - Hey.

You punk! Where do you think you're going?

What the hell?

- Don't move! - Damn it.

- You startled me. Take him away. - It wasn't me! I didn't do it!

Don't be too harsh on the kid.

I didn't expect that.

All right, moving on. We will now begin the case briefing

on the Hapseong Station murder case.

- It occurred on November 10th, 2022... - Hey.

...at a coffee shop near Hapseong Station.

These terrifying creatures appeared out of nowhere and murdered the victim...

Um... Uh, the body ran...

I'm sorry. Sorry, they burnt the body and ran.

And we're currently working on tracking down the suspects.

We have yet to find any evidence at the scene.

We still need to wait for the full autopsy report.

However,

it is clear that the body was burnt to a crisp

- at a very high temperature. - When did it start?

- Here are the preliminary results... - You didn't miss much.

...of the autopsy.

AUTOPSY PHOTOS

We don't have the full results yet,

but the body seems to have been burnt at a very high temperature very quickly.

HELL, GOD, DEATH, THE NEW TRUTH, ANGEL

It's blowing up the Internet.

By reviewing footage...

The chief must be real anxious about this.

...the victim's plate number and were able to identify him.

Joo Myeonghun, age 36.

He lived in a studio apartment that is 15 minutes by car from the coffee shop.

His ex-wife, who he divorced two years ago,

was his only family and he had no kids.

It happened in broad daylight, so we have got tons of witnesses

and video evidence to work with for this case.

Here's one of those clips.

What is that?

We can clearly see a strange creature

brutally murdering the victim in this clip.

What is that?

But we couldn't find any physical evidence at the scene.

"Jung Jinsu. The New Truth"? What are these?

Hey, Kyunghun! Stop looking at your phone! Come on.

He's gonna cover it all!

Let's talk about "The New Truth."

"The New Truth" was formed in 2012,

- and it's recently become... - Ah, that's enough.

All right, everyone listen to me. Eyes up here.

The media, the press, and the Internet, they're all going wild over this case.

- You all need to do your job properly! - Yes, sir.

Strange rumors about the case are already going around among kids out there.

- But is that thing even human? - Just bring it to me!

We'll find out what it is once we have it in custody.

All right, Unit One, go do some legwork and find out more about the victim.

- Yes, sir. - Unit Two, go check the scene.

Interview anyone who was at that coffee shop.

Make sure you don't feed the reporters, you understand?

Otherwise it'll just spread rumors.

And Kyunghun.

- Yeah? - Team up with Eunpyo and find out more

about the New Truth or whatever their name is.

We know they're having a gathering near the crime scene.

It looks like these people are somehow related to this case, all right.

- So you two go and check them out. - Yes, sir.

- Do not incite them. - Fine.

It's better not to mess with religious groups.

- Now, everyone, get to work! - Yes, sir.

Kyunghun.

Can I have a word with you?

Yes, sir?

Look, feel free to let me know if you need some time away from the field.

I'm a detective. What else would I even do with some time off?

That's...

Well, at least try to be on time, then.

"The New Truth."

"Is an organization for religious studies formed by Chairman Jung Jinsu in 2012."

Doesn't really have a long history.

Only been there a little over ten years.

What are you reading?

Oh, this? An online encyclopedia.

It says here, "They have never disclosed the exact number of their members,

but it's assumed that its radical members have formed the Arrowhead."

Wait. "The Arrowhead"?

You mean those punks that leak ex-cons' identities online?

They're in the New Truth?

As far as I know...

the Arrowhead isn't just active online.

I've also heard of them being involved in petty crimes.

- That's interesting. - It says here

that an angel-like figure appears and tells you when you'll go to Hell.

"Angel" and "Hell"? I mean, come on.

Are they saying it's divine retribution?

Yes. "An angel prophesizes the time of death of an individual,

and when the time comes,

executors of Hell demonstrate total damnation, and then quickly disappear."

You know, they say it's some kind of warning to everyone.

So are they saying what we saw earlier is God's work?

Their doctrine is full of holes,

but they attract people through the use of video evidence.

Kids these days learn everything from online videos.

God's work or not, I hope what they say is true.

Why do you say that?

Think about it.

Any time we track down evil bastards and manage to bring them in,

the court always lets them go on stupid grounds.

I'm sorry.

My job is to catch them.

Whether their victim is good or bad, doesn't matter.

Whether they killed to save the world or for fun...

No matter what their reason might be, we catch murderers.

That's all we need to think about.

This way, this way.

Patrol team moving to sector four.

Code two-one moving to sector three.

Code two-one moving to sector three.

Patrol team report position.

I didn't expect to see you at the scene.

Hey, Kyunghun.

The team leader is away on vacation.

And since of course all eyes are on this case,

I didn't have a choice, I had to be here.

You find anything?

Nothing. The witness testified that the creature excreted bodily fluids,

but no traces anywhere at all.

There aren't any footprints either.

Only thing we got are bloodstains.

Look over there.

All of those belong to the victim.

Hmm.

I heard the New Truth is having a gathering here.

Over there.

That might be them.

They've been talking into a microphone for a while.

- See you around. - All right.

See you later, sir.

We need to listen to God's voice starting now.

This person, who lived in a village

- in South East Asia... - Excuse me.

...had received a prophecy from an angel

that he would go to Hell five hours later.

Then...

WHAT IS THE "PURPOSE"?

That was exactly five hours after the prophecy was made.

And then... a few days later,

three bodies were found buried in the man's house.

They were missing persons from unsolved cases.

This was taken in Japan seven years ago.

The person had multiple counts of fraud and also assault.

Nicaragua six years ago.

Guilty of child exploitation and murder.

These very similar looking bodies were all killed in the same exact way

as those you just saw slaughtered in the video,

and they were of criminals.

Narcotics manufacture,

robbery and theft,

fraud,

forcible rape, arson...

Why do people sin?

Those who claim they value humanity,

and that each individual owns themselves

make excuses for themselves.

Because they had a tough childhood,

because of structural inequality,

because they have a mental disorder,

because they were under the influence of drugs and alcohol...

The concept of sin...

exists because humans choose to sin.

As a result of denying that fact,

humans, have forgotten about guilt,

remorse, repentance, and redemption.

God has found a way... to directly present to you

a perfect demonstration of exactly what Hell is like.

Why would God do this for us?

He's...

telling us to be more righteous.

Chairman Jung, you did wonderfully today.

Thank you for saying that. Travel safely.

Chairman Jung Jinsu?

Oh, you must be newcomers.

Police, actually.

Here you go.

Um, thank you.

What brings you here, Detectives?

We're investigating the murder case that occurred earlier today.

- What murder case? - Yeah?

Oh.

I guess you're talking about the demonstration.

It's funny once you start investigating God's deeds.

I understand.

In your eyes, it's still a murder.

Hee-jung, I got this. Give it to me.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

So how may I help you?

Well...

- Heejung! Hey! - Kyunghun?

Hey! What are you doing here?

Let me go. Dad, let go of me!

What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be at the academy?

Hey, Heejung.

It's been a while.

You're so tall now.

Hey.

I was just leaving, relax.

After class, you go straight home, you hear me?

I hear you.

Chairman Jung, I'll get going.

- Okay. Bye, Heejung. - Bye.

Thank you for today.

What do you think you're doing?

Heejung once told me her father was a police officer.

What a coincidence.

Does your organization take advantage of minors?

Of course not.

I got to know her through volunteer work.

But since you don't find it appropriate,

I'll be sure to tell her to refrain from volunteering from now on. Okay?

Well, uh... anyway,

we'd like to ask you a few questions regarding the case if you have a minute.

I'm sorry, but I have an interview scheduled.

Do you mind if I answer them on the way?

- Not at all. We'll follow you. - Let's walk, shall we?

Come on. Let's go.

Thank you for waiting. The train will be departing shortly.

Is this how you usually commute, Chairman Jung?

You don't need to address me as Chairman.

Why don't you just... call me by my name?

The members wanted me to have a car,

but I much prefer to use public transportation.

I suppose that you were...

probably expecting me to be some sort of cult leader

that takes advantage of people or something.

But that's not who I am.

I'm sure you have a lot of questions for me.

How can humans ever hope to get to the bottom of God's plans,

or even understand His will?

Have you always been a part of a religious group?

Ah, not really.

I grew up in a Catholic orphanage, so I guess...

religion has always been in my life.

Chairman Jung!

Take my seat.

No, it's okay. There's no need for that.

Oh, no. I insist.

Thank you for your kindness.

Hey, that's Jung Jinsu.

The chairman of the New Truth!

- Is he really here? - I can't believe it.

What's he doing here?

As I matured with age,

I really wanted to die.

Honestly,

life didn't interest me at all anymore.

I was looking forward to turning 20 and pondering how I should end my life.

Why 20, specifically?

Once you turn 20, you get to leave the orphanage

with some financial support.

I was determined to end my life,

but at the same time, I didn't want anyone to see me leave this earth, so...

There was this Tibetan plain I went to.

I saw eagles scavenge dead bodies.

That was the moment I found meaning in life for the first time.

From that day on, I traveled everywhere to find traces of God.

After looking for ten years,

I got to understand God's purpose a little.

And that's how I came to realize what I was meant to do.

Some people are saying that the New Truth...

is closely associated with the Arrowhead. Is that true?

I can't tell you how much I regret that claim.

It's unfortunate, but there are those...

who misinterpret our doctrine and have radical ideas.

Letting the world know of God's wish for us to live more righteously.

That's the only goal that matters to me.

What's so funny about that?

Upholding righteousness and justice in fear of damnation...

Is that truly righteous and just?

What else would make humans repent other than fear?

Can you think of even one other thing?

According to you,

God must think humans don't have autonomy over themselves.

That's an interesting point, Detective Jin.

Autonomy...

Right.

I heard from Heejung...

that your wife

was murdered.

I can't even imagine all the pain you had to endure.

What could the murderer be doing right now?

Wasn't he released back into society after serving his sentence?

Do you honestly believe true justice can be served through man-made law?

Do you think the murderer feels remorse?

Chairman Jung?

Hi, I'm here to do the interview with you.

Hello there.

That's my number.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.

Have a good night.

Follow me, please.

That's where he lives?

He's something else, isn't he?

Yeah, but be honest...

did you really expect a cult leader to be ordinary?

Heejung.

You don't have to wash it, Dad. I'm gonna wear it tomorrow.

We need to talk.

I'm not a fanatic or anything.

I went to a few of his lectures out of curiosity.

There's nothing for you to worry about.

I never missed school because of it.

Are we done now?

I'll see you tomorrow. Good night.

I should close early and go home too.

Eunyul.

My gosh, why are you still up?

Surprise!

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

- Hayul, you're awake too? - ♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday, dear Mommy ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

Blow them out.

Thank you, my love.

- Love you, Mommy. - Thank you.

Thank you, Eunyul.

Mom.

Park Jungja.

You will die in five days at 3:00 p.m.

And...

you are bound for Hell.

Finally!

God has demonstrated damnation

here in the middle of Seoul, South Korea!

Humans have refused to understand God's will

no matter how relentless He's been in His pursuit of us.

Knowing how foolish humans are,

He finally demonstrated damnation

in a major city in broad freaking daylight!

But look how people react to it.

"Cult"? "Terrorism"? "CGI"?

You're pathetic, hopeless idiots! Ha!

What more do these morons need to see with their own eyes to believe it?

Huh?

It's being investigated.

How funny is that?

Do they investigate a judge when they sentence someone to death?

- Are they gonna go up to God... - "Uh, hi, God."

"Uh, we're here because you are under arrest for murder"?

Listen to me.

What in the fucking world do you think the police should be doing right now?

Joo Myeonghun!

They need to find out what this sinner had done wrong!

They need to clearly show people that not a single person in this world

can avoid facing the judgment of God almighty!

By the way,

why do you think God demonstrated damnation

right in the middle of a major city, like Seoul?

It's because this is where we are.

The Arrowhead.

The Arrowhead!

The Arrowhead!

When God decides to release an arrow,

we, the Arrowhead, should fly and hit a target, okay?

To where?

It's horrible! I hate this shit!

Let's listen to novelist Kim Gwangjin talking a lot of bullshit.

Screw this guy!

As the public's trust in the government continues to decline,

people are drawn to things like personal vendetta.

Some people are trying to give a special meaning

to mysterious events and say justice is being served.

And many are conforming to the idea.

I'm reminded...

of all the terrible things that happened back in medieval theocracy.

You shouldn't let others control your own thoughts...

Seriously?

I mean, seriously? You should not think for yourself, you idiot.

What gives you the right to have an opinion on this?

God has been kind enough to show us His will!

You bastard! I assure you, very soon, you are going to Hell!

Remember, everyone.

What God truly wants from us is not to wait until God's punishment.

Once God lets us know where we should go,

we must head in that direction.

That is the autonomy that God has generously bestowed on us!

That's why...

the Arrowhead really needs to exist, okay?

Now, now, now, now, now, now...

it's time for me to show you our accomplishments.

I am so excited!

Beat him up! Fuck him up!

Please!

Please don't kill me.

Please don't kill me. I have a family.

Shut the fuck up!

Hey, mister, I just don't get you. I mean...

Did you think blabbering like that would make you look smart or something?

I'm sorry.

You fucker!

Ask for forgiveness, you piece of shit!

I'm sorry.

I... I denied God... I mean, I denied God's will!

- And believed... - Boring!

- ...worldly values are the only ones... - I can't hear you.

Come to your senses!

Look at this guy trying to look cool.

More hitting for him!

My turn. My turn!

METHOD_44: LOOKS LIKE KIM GWANGJIN ARROWFIRE

- Please, stop. - Who gives a shit about your opinion?

Admit that you just wanted to look cool.

Ask for God's forgiveness!

- That's right. - I'm so sorry.

- I just wanted to sound smart. - We can't hear you.

I'm so sorry.

I know, I should've known my place and kept my mouth shut.

- What an idiot. - Please don't kill me.

I'm so sorry.

Great job!

It's a shame he decided not to thank us

for leading him back to the right path.

We have way more important things to worry about.

Let's just let it slide for now.

The more important matter is...

Joo Myeonghun!

We should find out all the evil deeds this sinner has done,

and let the world know what God's will is.

Thanks for watching today's show!

The Arrowhead! The Arrowhead!

The Arrowhead!

Good morning, Detective Jin. How are you?

What brings you here this early in the morning?

Well, I'd like to talk about the Hapseong Station murder victim.

Uh, I don't know anything.

Don't be like that, Detective Jin. Does he have any priors?

I don't know. That's all I can tell you.

Why do you care about a dead man's criminal record anyway?

Everyone on the Internet wants to find out why he was damned.

Shouldn't the press be correcting fake news?

This is why people never respect reporters.

As if any of us would ever respect the police.

Anyways, just let me know if you find out anything, all right?

Call me!

Joo Myeonghun?

Listen.

How can we investigate someone when there's nothing to convict?

I get what you mean, but that's not how filing a claim works.

What do you mean we should investigate the victim?

If there's anything we should investigate,

you should file a police report.

Hel... Hello?

What's going on? What are these calls about?

That guy with the skull mask must have a lot of sources.

He exposed the victim's identity.

What about those kids?

We arrested some at the scene, but they're refusing to testify.

Was that a live broadcast?

Those reckless little punks.

They're teenagers, so they're either fearless or stupid.

What about the novelist? How is he?

There. He's here with his lawyer for the statement.

I guess he doesn't need hospitalization.

All right. Talk to those kids with Wonpil.

I'll talk to the victim.

We should've brought in that guy with the skull mask.

- I'll see you later. - All right.

Hi there.

Hello.

I'm Detective Jin Kyunghun.

Nice to meet you. I'm Min Hyejin from the Sodo Law Firm.

Dude, it's not that high.

So freaking hungry.

No, no. Really, I think we can just get the fuck out of here.

Idiot. get down from there.

- Hey, leave me alone. - Come here!

- Hey, it's the cops. - You're so loud!

Back in your seats.

You forget why you're here? Huh?

- Ooh... - You little shits...

- Wonpil, they're just kids, okay? - So freaking cool.

Don't get on our nerves and behave yourselves, all right?

Ooh! Look what they're doing, they're playing good cop bad cop with us.

Shut up, you shithead.

- Just stop talking for a second. - So serious all of a sudden.

- Seriously. - Shut up!

I had a lecture...

...so I was on my way to the underground garage.

They attacked me out of nowhere.

I think I passed out after being hit in the head.

When I came to, I was tied up.

Well, do you remember how many there were?

I think... there were at least ten of them.

So were you...

were you able to arrest them all?

Uh... Well, almost.

The problem is...

they're mostly minors.

Okay, listen up.

You may think you're not subject to prosecution because you're minors,

but you're old enough to be penalized under juvenile criminal law.

Huh? What are we gonna do?

If you want to mitigate your punishment,

you'd better give me the names of all those who were involved.

Hello, juvenile court!

Hey, Mr. Po-po is being serious. Look at him.

Mister,

do you think the world will be the same by the time we go to court?

Can't you see that the world is changing?

You know you go to Hell if you do something bad, right?

Well, what you guys did was just terrible.

Mister,

do you really think you know more about sin than we do?

Have you ever read about God's will in the doctrine of the New Truth?

I hope you don't think this is just another crime

committed by reckless teenagers, Detective Jin.

This is just the beginning.

As a person who has been following the crimes committed by the Arrowhead

for years, I can assure you that

those religious fanatics can do much worse for their cause.

We really don't have any idea

how we should deal with what's to come.

Well, we also think

this case is different from other crimes the Arrowhead have committed before.

Please contact me any time

if you find something strange

or come across anything related to the New Truth or the Arrowhead.

Oh, one more thing, Detective.

You know that strange creature...

Have you found out what it actually is yet?

Is it really... something sent by God?

It's not. Am I right?

Those punks are relentless.

They must believe that the world has come to an end.

Actually, what was the word they used?

"Complete," maybe?

I don't know. They said it's getting better, so I guess we'll see.

How'd it go with Heejung?

She okay?

Well, I wouldn't say she's okay.

She smiled.

So does that mean things are getting better between you two?

Something just doesn't feel right.

I have really no idea how she actually feels.

I can't figure it out.

That's what being a parent to a teenager is like.

Just think of it as a good sign when you see her smile.

SODO LAW FIRM

Just go in there.

Hello, Ms. Min.

Hello.

I'm Min Hyejin. I heard you asked for me.

I did.

Hello.

Well...

What?

I'm bound for Hell.

Hell?

- Show her. - Here.

Mom, look.

Park Jungja.

- You will die in five days at 3:00 p.m. - What is that?

It's a decree.

Sorry?

They said that's what it's called.

The New Truth told me I received a decree.

The New Truth, huh?

My son said they'd be the best ones to talk to about it.

So what did they say?

They'd like to broadcast it.

You know, the demonstration.

What?

I... I'm sorry. I didn't get that. What did they say to you?

They'd like to do a live broadcast...

...of when I go to Hell.

Those crazy freaks!
