Juhee.

Wake up, we are here, okay?

I'm here for the keys to suite 504.

- 504? - Yes

Your name is...?

It's Chae Min-young.

Miss Chae Min-young...

You're Chae Min-young, right?

Yes...

Let's see, keys to 504...

Chief. Shouldn't we hire another secretary here?

That's decided by the top brass, not me.

Water and electricity should be available today.

Call gas company to connect the service.

And, call here if you have any problems.

Thank you, but you know...

This building complex is so quiet.

This is not a moving season.

Also, there are no helping hands today.

No helping hands?

Yes.

Chief

Does the day of 'no helping hands' mean no workers?

No, it refers to the day when ghost does not roam around.

The ghost does not like new things Intruding the surroundings

and despises unfamiliar and strange objects.

That's why moving occurs quietly on the day the ghost takes a rest.

Ah... why didn't you avoid moving on the day of 'no helping hands?

Saved me 30 percent by moving today.

Don't believe in superstitions either.

Superstition?

You may not know this, miss, but everything our ancestors mentioned are true.

Mommy.

Hi, Juhee.

Which one is ours?

Oh, you are married.

Didn't tell us you had a child.

Is that a problem?

No, nothing like that, really.

She seems well-behaved.

You know, the permit for this complex

was allowed originally for office-related uses

There are difference in soundproofing when compared to apartments

Juhee, can you push the button for 5th floor?

Okay mommy.

1,2,3... um...

There's no 4, where's 4 mommy?

Guess there's no 4th floor here.

How come?

People do not like the number 4.

Why don't they like it?

Come on Juhee, these are heavy

Come on mommy, why don't they like it?

Grownups are easily scared

They're afraid that number 4 sounds like the word Death in Chinese

They don't like it because they're afraid?

Exactly.

Why is it so complicated?

Grownups naturally make simple things so difficult.

Kinda stupid, our place is on the fourth floor anyway.

Juhee, I'm going to drop these soon.

Thank you.

Oh no, Juhee Can you get the ball?

Juhee.

Careful, you may fall down.

Am I sleeping here?

Yes.

And you, mommy?

Mommy will sleep there too.

Yeah!

I going to go exercise.

When you go there, play with friends...

Sorry, but this place only takes children from this apartment complex.

But we live right across from here, at Parkville

I'm so sorry. Mothers from the complex do not want kids from the outside.

- This one. - Just the ham?

My goodness!

Let's go Juhee.

Mommy get me this one.

I will make something delicious, so let's go home and have dinner.

- Excuse me. - Yes.

Did you just move in?

Yes.

What apartment did you move into?

Suite 504.

I see...

Residential office is great for young people to live in.

- How much is it? - It's 7,000 won

Look at you, so pretty! How old are you?

He's asking you, you should answer him.

- I'm six years old. - Ah, I guess she's too shy

She's not like that once she gets to know you.

I see...

- Have a nice day then. - Yes, goodbye. Take care.

- Come again soon. - Okay

Okay.

Can you be alone?

Just couple of days Juhee, okay?

Promise you mommy will be home early tonight.

You can watch as many cartoons as you want.

- Really? - Really!

Min-young.

The floor has to be...

210mm instead of 180mm as previously designed

- I thought it was 180? - In the beginning, yes

To add shock-absorbing material to existing sleeve, however...

...change to 210 was made to lower the noise from light impact.

That's right.

Thanks, I'm out of my mind with moving and all

- Nothing to it. Moving went well? - Yep

I'm sorry I couldn't help you with it.

How's the new place?

Close to work, first of all.

Exactly. For busy people like us, it's best to live near work.

It's nice to live nearby work, but there's no place for Juhee.

How come? Aren't there playhouses nearby?

They are all full. So are the kindergartens.

What can you do?

Okay, listen everyone.

About Wow Construction work... We got the job!

Everyone worked so hard for this

It will be busier than ever, so let's take care of this one nicely.

How about a company dinner to celebrate?

Ilsong House, okay?

Okay, fantastic!

- How nice! - Wonderful!

Your glass is empty!

Here, have a drink on me.

- Sorry, I will take it easy tonight - Come on, have a drink on me. Here

Pour me one instead, please.

- Drink, drink. - That's enough

Here's one for you too, Min-young.

- I shouldn't... - Let's drink,

Go ahead and take it...

Here's one for me

Say Min-young, the work you submitted this time was really good, you know?

Now that we have a huge client...

and our company is in a stable situation...

Let's see... how long have you been with us, Min-young?

Almost two years now.

Uh huh...

So try to feel at home Min-young.

Right, teamwork

Teamwork is really important, you know?

Stop skipping out on office get-togethers and have some drinks, okay?

I said, grab it and have a drink on me.

All together, let's toast.

Juhee.

Juhee?

Mommy is really late tonight.

I'm really sorry, Juhee.

Juhee... Juhee?

Juhee...

Juhee.

Juhee, answer me!

Juhee!

Who is it?

I must be out of my mind.

I got off on the wrong floor.

I'm so sorry to bother you

Juhee, I'm really sorry.

What took you so long? I was scared.

Mommy came home so late.

You smell like alcohol.

I'm so sorry.

Juhee, are you mad at me for leaving you all alone?

- Mommy? - What?

A kid lives downstairs too

Yes, a boy. Isn't he?

How did you know?

Mommy knows everything.

Really?

Of course. There's nothing mommy doesn't know.

But, he's a bit strange.

Why?

He doesn't say a word and runs away whenever he sees me.

Oh yeah?

That's because you're so pretty and he's shy.

Ask him to be friends next time you see him, okay?

Miss,

you live at 504, right?

Pardon?

Aren't you the one with a little girl at 504?

That's right...

I live at 304, right underneath from you.

Okay...?

Daughter or niece, keep her quiet, will ya?

Excuse me?

I can't stand the noise.

Oh, I'm so sorry But my daughter is a quiet girl.

That's what you think.

Hello there.

What a lousy luck moving in right above that guy.

Careful, that guy is really strange.

What does he do for living?

I have no idea, of course.

Some say he's an ex-gangster Anyway, be careful.

Just try not to bother him much.

But he can't threaten me like that way

Juhee,

you must be bored being alone all day.

A lady will be coming to play with you from tomorrow.

Can't you play with me, mommy?

Juhee, how much do you love mommy?

This much.

Mommy loves Juhee this much too.

Mommy has to work for mommy and Juhee to live happily.

So I can buy delicious things for Juhee.

Let's put up with these a little more, okay?

Okay...

You know I love you, right? Okay? Okay!

Stop that Juhee.

Someone downstairs complained about it

The one with that strange kid?

Do you make noises when mommy isn't here?

No I don't It's noisier downstairs, you know?

- Downstairs? - Uh huh.

Do it like this, mommy.

Do it like this and you hear strange sound.

Juhee, did you hear something?

What?

Like a screaming or something.

That man from downstairs must be fighting every day, huh?

Don't do this ever again.

Why not?

Just don't do it, when mommy says so, okay?

Okay.

Well, take care of her please.

Yes, don't you worry about a thing.

Juhee, listen to what she says Mommy will try to be home early.

- Please take care of her well. - Okay, have a nice day.

Pay attention when you drive, huh?

What a lousy way to start the morning!

God... is that all you can do?

I can do better than that.

Where are you going?

- To minimart. - Oh really?

Hey! Come here for a second.

Are there more pastries?

No.

Really? Then...

Buy a pastry and five eggs there, okay?

Okay.

- Hurry back. - Okay.

Hello, little princess! Are you running an errand?

Yes.

Here, some change for you.

Good bye.

Wait a second.

A present for you, for a good girl running an errand nicely.

- Thank you. - Uh huh...

Hello.

Hello? This is Juhee's mom How's everything with Juhee?

Ah, she's playing well.

I'm glad to hear that Can I talk to her?

Oh no...

What's wrong?

Nothing, it's just that she's having a nap just now.

Is that right? She normally doesn't sleep at this hour.

I took her outside to play early She must be tired.

Should I wake her up?

No, just leave her alone I'll be home early tonight.

Please take care of her until then.

Don't you worry about a thing Please take your time.

Yes, Okay.

Checking up on me, bitch?

Hey, little one.

What's taking her so long? It's just a trip to the minimart.

You...

Thank you for your troubles today. Hope you can do the same tomorrow.

Okay. Good night.

Juhee, your babysitter is leaving Say goodbye to her.

Good bye, ma'am.

I'll see you tomorrow Juhee.

- I'm sorry. - It's okay.

Juhee.

Is the babysitter not taking care of you?

She's very nice, took me to the playground

and bought me an ice cream.

What's with the greeting then? Should be more polite

Don't say another word, just deposit the money

Who do you think I am?

When did we beg you to get the loan from us?

It's you who walked in yourself and took out the loan.

And now you're complaining about the interest?

Anyway, it's due tomorrow.

Tomorrow morning at ten.

If there's no deposit, then we go by the written promise

Okay, we will see about that.

Became famous...

What the hell, such a shabby work and I pay maintenance for this?

Crap!

This is not in service area.

Crap! What the hell!

Just identified the man.

Oh yeah?

Yes, dead person's name is Choi Jong Sik,

37 year-old loan shark based here.

Money-lending? Must be grudge-related.

It doesn't seem so.

Found his bottom half in front of elevator on the fifth floor.

Thus, it's being treated as a simple accident case.

Who knows, check up on his acquaintances just in case.

Yes I will.

Take shots of the exit and the side.

Please step aside.

What's going on?

- Hello, sir. - Yeah.

Hey detective Park.

Hello.

How's it going? What's going on?

Looks like an accident from elevator malfunction

Not a murder, right?

Probably not a murder, but...

we gotta investigate little more.

You know, it doesn't feel right... incident with Miss Kang

from 5th floor and all...

Take care of this mess for me,

it's uncomfortable for people to see in the morning.

Don't worry. I will take care of it well.

- Okay, I'm depending on you. - I gotta go now.

Juhee, what are you drawing?

What are you working on?

My god, what is this?

The man who died today.

Where are you going?

- I will be at the playground. - Huh?

Is she back already?

You're back already...

Strange... Juhee was just there...

Excuse me, but...

I don't think I can come here starting tomorrow.

No, I won't come here anymore.

Why, all of sudden?

I got things to do

It's not fair that you quit all of sudden!

Please... until I find someone else.

I'm truly sorry, but can't stand it any longer.

Take care and good bye.

Ma'am, ma'am!

Juhee, did something happen today?

I don't know.

Did you behave badly again?

No!

What do you mean no? Why would she act like that then?

I didn't do anything.

Juhee, it's hard for mommy too.

If you behave like this, I can't continue to work, you know?

Don't work then.

Oh my!

Where did you get that foul tongue?

What are these?

Did the babysitter do this to you?

How could I do...

Does it hurt?

No, just itchy.

Itchy?

There are early indications for all symptoms.

Must find that indication and take proper action

before it becomes too big.

Is it serious?

I'm not telling you because it's serious, just pay attention to your kid sometime.

Has Juhee suffered from atopic dermatitis before?

No, never.

Did you just move recently?

Yes.

To an old apartment complex, right?

No, it's a new residential office complex.

These red marks are from asbestos.

Worry about her respiratory system, not only her skin.

If asbestos gets into her lung, then it'll be fatal.

Is that a new house syndrome or something?

Yes, the problem with living environment.

Strange though, newer buildings mostly won't have any asbestos...

Anyhow, I will give you the prescription for her

Apply the ointment constantly and, most importantly,

ventilate well.

Hello?

- Chae Min-young? - Hello, chief

Why aren't you at work yet?

Didn't Mr. Ha tell you?

I'm at the hospital with my sick child.

Min-young, you know how many cases have immediate deadlines.

Yes, of course. I was gonna stop by the office later.

It's not just one or two

You know they must be finished by tonight, right?

Yes, sir.

And you know how important they are?

Yes.

- Please pay attention, - Yes.

- I'm counting on you, Min-young - Yes, I'm truly sorry.

Are you going to work?

Yes, dear. Mommy's coming back right away.

Do repair work?

What for?

My child has atopic dermatitis.

Not one place will do repair work for a simple atopic symptom!

A simple atopic symptom?

She's really suffering from a symptom she never had before.

And it's all due to asbestos!

Why are you mad at me for?

Also, nobody uses asbestos for construction these days.

It's an illegal material.

Our complex is supposed to be environment-friendly building.

1, 2, 3, 5th floor.

Oops! I'm sorry.

- Ms. Chae Min-young. - Yes?

Don't bring any personal related stuff to your workplace.

I'm terribly sorry.

Juhee, mommy's home.

Why are all the lights off?

I didn't do it.

Aren't you afraid of the dark?

No, I'm always alone anyway.

What are all these?

Juhee.

Juhee, what did you do?

I didn't do it.

Then who did?

Juhee, you shouldn't lie to mommy.

I know you are upset with me

but this makes it so much harder for mommy.

I told you I didn't do it.

Juhee, that's too much.

Let's stay at Sanghee's place for a while.

No!

I will never leave this place.

Who is it?

Who is it this late at night?

I told you to keep quiet.

Huh?

I told you to keep quiet here.

Why are you making noises then?

Made noises?

I told you, didn't I? Told you not to make noises.

Guess you don't take my kind warnings seriously.

Make noises? We were sleeping just now!

Even if we made any noises

isn't it rude to behave this way in the middle of the night?

Rude behavior?

I don't know the meaning of it.

Anyhow, keep quiet or next time I won't be so kind!

Juhee.

Let's eat.

Juhee.

Juhee, what are you doing?

Where did you get this?

Where did you get this, huh?

It was here.

Why are you lying?

Where did you get this?

It was really here.

What's wrong with you these days?

It was really here!

Hello!

Shoot!

Is anybody home?

Excuse me...

Can you come out for a second?

Come on, get out of the way.

What is it this time?

Huh?

We are not sure yet.

What the hell!

Gotta perform exorcism or something.

Hey, detective Park.

Hi, how are you?

What happened?

Well, I think it was a drug overdose, with needles and all.

A drug addict? All kinds of death here.

So what happens now?

Well, although it's not a murder case...

since narcotics are involved...

Detective Park, can't you take care of this quietly?

Sorry, but I can't really say.

I understand Guess I'll have to talk to Captain Heo.

- Okay, then. - Detective Park.

- Huh? - The witness says...

...she saw a woman and a boy.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Shoot, this makes it complicated.

What did he say?

There was a woman and a boy living in this place.

But they are not here.

We must investigate any cases involving both death and missing persons.

Have you had a conversation with the woman?

We never talked,

but I once got lost after the company dinner

and saw her then.

A company dinner, huh?

You must've had some alcohol, right?

Yes, just a little.

Got drunk and got off on the wrong floor?

I drank but I wasn't intoxicated.

You sure it was this third floor?

Yes, I'm sure.

Have you ever witnessed the woman and a boy living there in person,

while not intoxicated?

I'm absolutely sure about it Also the noise from downstairs.

- My daughter... - Get your acts together lady!

The person living at 304 was single.

What the hell are you talking about.

Sir, please calm down.

Your daughter is the only kid living in this building.

Checked the entire room, no sign of him living with a woman and a boy whatsoever.

Detective Park, do you believe her? Don't start things up.

Come on lady.

You can't come in here. Get out now!

Juhee, mommy told you not to do that.

You don't even listen to mommy!

I hate you! You're ugly! You stupid idiot!

I will stab and kill you I will never like you again.

Hello, sis? It's me, Min-young.

Juhee, let's go to Sanghee's house.

No!

We shouldn't be here, so let go.

I'm staying in this house.

Come on, get up.

- Get up now! - I'm not leaving here!

Get up

No, I don't want to.

What's wrong with you?

Why are you acting this way?

You're the only one for me.

Please do as I say!

Get up.

- No. - Get up and let's go.

No, I don't want to.

Step outside, Juhee.

Come on out!

Hi, princess.

Where are you going with mommy?

It's the weekend so we're going for a walk

I'm not coming out.

Oh no...

Why is our princess so mad?

Can I get you an ice cream?

Forget it.

Juhee!

I'm so sorry. Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

So I will see you next time then.

Get lost!

One of you did something...

Sorry, sis, but just for few days...

Don't worry.

My husband always gets home late so there's nothing to worry about.

The bad goblin...

My workload is getting bigger and Juhee is ill more often.

It's a new environment, she needs time to get used to it.

I thought it will get better as time goes by.

But the strange things are happening so often.

I don't know what to think.

Mommy.

- Mommy. - Yes, honey.

What the...

Yes.

- Hello? - Yes.

Chief? This is Chae Min-young.

Hi, Min-young. I see you're not at the office again today.

No I'm not.

What's going on?

I should come by in person to tell you this...

...but I have no choice but to quit working.

What? Did you say you're quitting?

Yes.

At this busy time of the year?

I know, I should at least finish the work before quitting...

What's going on with you really?

My daughter is very ill.

Wow construction

Wow construction

Contract

Contractor Han Chang Su Choi Jong Sik, Kang Hyun Mee

You know, it doesn't feel right... incident

with Miss Kang from 5th floor and all...

Absolutely no signs of living together at dead man Han Chang Su's place.

The dead person's name is Choi Jong Sik.

Hello?

Gil-Cheongjoo Construction

Did you find the information I asked you?

It wasn't easy but I got it.

Demolition of Saejeong complex is a classified matter.

I got it because I work for the subsidiary,

and they told me to never mention it to anyone.

These are the documents and pictures from that period.

- Pictures? - Yes.

Yes, demolition of this Saejeong complex was full of talks and happenings.

Finally, Wow people sent thugs to kick out the remaining residents

refusing to go away from their home.

In midst of it, there was one person who stayed until the end.

Strangely, that person just walked away refusing any compensation.

Her name is Park Soon OK

and she lived in suite 404, building no. 3.

So you're saying all the incidents at the complex you live in...

are connected to the demolition of the apartment three years ago

And what does Ms. Park Soon OK have to do with it?

Park Soon OK, she must've been murdered by those thugs.

Are you saying the dead woman named Park Soon OK...

...came back as a ghost and began killing those people?

Yes, I'm positive.

Ma'am, their deaths have nothing to do with murder.

Kang Hyun Mee died from a fall,

Choi Jong Sik died from an elevator accident.

And Han Chang Su died from a drug overdose, all confirmed.

You can't just investigate based on an assumption.

I'm not saying it just based on an assumption.

Oh my...

Unless it's a sure case or it has been filed,

it's difficult for us to conduct investigation.

But people have been dying lately.

I told you those have nothing to do with murder.

And you think we have leisure time to listen to some ghost crap now?

Min-young, Juhee disappeared.

What, Juhee?

Looked everywhere nearby, couldn't find her.

When did she disappear?

She was here at lunchtime then she disappeared...!

In-young!

I'm never leaving this place, ever.

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Mister.

Juhee's mom, how are you?

Have you seen my daughter?

- Huh? - My daughter.

Did something happen? No, I haven't seen her

I can't find her anywhere.

Is that right?

Come to think of it, I haven't seen her all day today.

I would look for her with you if not for my store.

I just can't leave it vacant.

Did you call the police?

No, not yet

Don't worry too much, I'm sure she's around nearby.

Okay, I understand.

Hello? Juhee?

It's me, Jieun.

Hi, what's up?

Got the name of person in charge of the demolition service.

His name is Park Byung-do,

I'm sending his photo to your phone now.

Thanks a lot.

Why is my picture here?

Lady, don't forget your cellular phone.

You...

You killed Park Soon OK, right?

Park Soon OK, that bitch brought it upon herself.

Had to do the demolition work

and the bitch refused to leave until the end.

What about my daughter, Juhee?

I don't know where the hell your daughter is.

This is not going to solve everything.

I killed that Soon OK bitch.

Killing someone like you is nothing.

Even if you kill me...

...that will not take care of their grudge.

Grudge? I don't believe in stuff like that.

Neither did I... until now.

Now it's your turn... your turn to die.

My turn? No, it's your turn to die.

Juhee...

Juhee...

Come here, little girl.

No, don't!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee...

Juhee...

Hey little girl, stop running Juhee...

Juhee...

Hey kid, where are you?

There is no use in hiding.

Juhee!

Mommy!

Juhee!

Juhee!

There's no 4. Where's 4, mommy?

Guess there's no 4th floor here.

I told you to keep quiet!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Juhee!

Get on it.

Sir, sir...

Isn't that blood?

Juhee.

What's going on?

A boy is dead.

Get rid of it.

Mingu...

my Mingu.

Open your eyes, Mingu...

Mingu.

Mingu! Mingu!

Mingu, my Mingu!

- Hey, get outta here! - Mingu, get up, please!

What are you going to do?

What are you going to do? Save him!

What are you going to do now?

Get my Mingu back alive!

What are you going to do?

Mommy...

I know how sorry you are,

how much pain you went through.

Mommy...

Mommy...

Juhee!

Are you okay?

Are you saying bodies are buried beneath 504,

so we must dig them up?

Yes, buildings have

spaces between each floor to block out the noises.

That's where a woman named Park Soon OK and her son are buried.

So you are saying all four deaths in this building

are related to the death of this Park lady.

Ms. Chae, since all four related parties are dead now

then the curse is lifted as well, right?

What she really wants is

for the remains of her son and her to be brought out.

Chae min-young, are you writing a novel or something?

Or are you threatening us?

Threatening you?

If not, why are you telling us the story?

Must dig up the bodies... would you believe it,

having no evidence whatsoever?

Although we don't do this generally

but we will give you back the deposit without the penalty, so just leave.

What are you saying?

I'm saying, just move out.

I'm not telling you this just to move out of here.

I'm saying you must remove the bodies of mother and child buried here.

I'm not sure how much you're getting paid to do this silly crap.

I promise you if you continue spreading terrible rumors...

...you must be ready to face me in court for both economic

and psychological damages!

You decide.

Just walk away or well have a showdown in court.

How could you... as a human being...!

It's there...

they just don't wanna believe it, that's all

If you're done, please give me the keys.

Just forget about it.

Park Soon OK gets neglected even she is died.

Let's go.
