You have 3 minutes left. Please hand in your test papers.

Do you have any stronger medication?

(NAM Sang-mi)

Visit a clinic and get a flu shot.

You've had this cold for too long.

I'll get better.

(RYU Seung-ryong)

(SHIM Eun-kyung)

If you multiply five times this,

y is cancelled out and it makes ten.

Then x is two, right?

Wait! Wait!

Here's your change $6.

Thank you! Goodbye.

Hello?

Sis, were you sleeping?

Um… Is this So-jin?

Why are you calling so late?

Sis, are you okay?

What did you say?

Hello?

So-jin? Hello?

Hello?

Hee-jin, it's mom.

Why are you calling so early?

Something terrible has happened.

What's happened now?

So-jin is gone.

(Seohaean Expressway)

Who is it?

It's me.

(Defy the Devil!)

What happened? Why did she disappear?

I told you.

I came home yesterday and...

Did you report it to the police?

The police?

Then what?

Think she'll come back if we do nothing?

We have to pray.

Let's pray together for So-jin's return.

Mom, please stop it!

This is why So-jin left.

Hi, honey.

How is she?

She drank some water

and slept a little today.

Ji-eun.

Say hello to daddy.

Say hi daddy.

Dad, when will I go home?

I want to go home.

You can when you get better, Ji-eun.

When will I get better?

You'll get better soon.

In a few days, you won't feel any pain anymore.

Really?

Of course.

You trust Daddy, right?

Right?

So-jin?

Who is it?

Ms. Hee-jin Kang?

Yes, what can I do for you?

You made the missing person report?

Name, So-jin Kang. Age, 14 years old.

So she must be in middle school.

Yes.

So she has a scar behind her neck?

Yes, about this big. And it's right here.

So your mother came home

in the afternoon and she was gone.

But where's your mother now?

She's at church.

What's your sister's cell phone number?

Why isn't this pen working?

My sister doesn't have a cell phone.

All kids seem to have one these days.

Well, it doesn't look like she's missing.

Looks like a mere runaway case.

A mere runaway?

You see, when kids run away from home,

they don't say that they would.

So if you wait a few more days…

Is that all?

Pardon?

So is that all the police can do

is to tell me to wait a few more days?

Don't worry too much.

These days, kids suddenly leave home

and come back a few days later.

Forget it. We'll take care of it ourselves.

Cops are no use anyhow.

Who is she to say that?

Mister!

Do you know the family that lives in 1308?

Who are you?

The police.

Why?

Did something happen to them?

Oh, so do you know them?

Well, not really.

Don't tell anyone

that I told you this, okay?

That place is freaky.

Very evil.

Freaky?

A mother and her daughter live there alone and...

Don't touch anything.

I'll be down right away.

I'm leaving now!

What happened?

Is she dead?

Yes.

Do you know the woman who committed suicide?

Suicide?

It wasn't a suicide.

She was trying so hard to live.

That's natural.

They do that all the time.

How do you know?

Do you have proof that it was a suicide?

There was a will.

Where is he?

In the bathroom.

Bring me that will.

It's a will.

But it's written on a talisman.

Your sister's name is So-jin, right?

Yes.

(So-jin, I'm sorry.)

Her name is Jung-mi Kim, age 27.

And she's lived here for one and a half years.

But...

She was supposedly close to your sister,

but you don't know who she is?

I told you that I don't know her.

Give me a photo of your sister if you have one.

Someone is here…

Who are you?

Mom.

He's a detective from the police.

Oh, so you're So-jin's mother.

I have a few questions.

Get out of here!

- Get out of here! - Please calm down.

Get out!

Get out!

Mom, what are you doing?

Hee-jin, they're all with Satan!

You're not supposed to let them in!

Mom, please stop it!

This is So-jin's photo.

You must've been surprised back there.

I'm sorry about what happened with my mother.

It's my fault for being with Satan.

Don't you have a religion?

I don't have that kind of stuff.

Then what do you believe in?

Do I have to believe in something?

It's hard enough making a living

My mother wasn't like that before.

She got worse after So-jin got sick.

Your sister is sick?

There was a car accident two years ago.

My father passed away

and So-jin got hurt badly and she was near the point of death.

With my father's funeral, debt,

and So-jin being sick,

our family became devastated at once.

It was a living hell for us.

Mom said that she prayed

So-jin would get better.

Then So-jin survived,

as if her prayers were answered.

But she became strange afterwards.

She didn't talk and was always panicky.

I thought it was because of the accident at first,

but she gradually got worse.

She'd have convulsions later

and couldn't go to school.

What did the doctor have to say?

My mother didn't take her to the hospital afterwards.

She said prayer would help her.

That it was all God's will.

Mom?

Why didn't you turn on the lights?

Are you going somewhere again?

I have to go pray. I'll be there all night.

Do you really think it is time to go to pray

when So-jin is missing?

That's why I need to pray even harder.

Why do you pray so much?

So that So-jin returns.

And for our family to be happy.

That's all?

What else do you need?

Hee-jin, it's still not too late.

You should repent and be saved.

Mom, please stop.

My daughter may go to hell,

but you want me to live as a deaf-mute?

You call that family?

What's the point of being saved?

Is this how we got saved through your prayers?

This is hell for me right now, got it?

There's no worse hell than this!

You know why?

Because you don't believe in God.

That's why it's hell.

Mister, about that family in 1308…

You know, the freaky apartment.

When was the last time you saw that little girl?

I saw her just now.

Over there.

She was sitting there

and stared straight at me. Freaking girl.

Come on, sir.

Stop talking nonsense.

Why is that nonsense?

Do you know who that girl is?

She's possessed.

She's half-human.

What?

She'd stare right at you.

Her eyes...

weren't human.

What are you talking about?

I killed a lot of Viet Congs in Vietnam.

I killed a lot of those commies with my M-16.

You need to put all of the commies like them

into camps and fix them right.

Koreans are all talk.

If I say one word, they all tremble.

If I tell college elites to crawl,

they crawl on their hands and feet.

That's who I am. Got it?

- Mister. - I won't take it anymore.

She's a hell of damned girl!

Mister, pull yourself together.

Crawl, you bastard, crawl now!

You bastard!

What's wrong with you? Are you crazy?

I'm tired. I'm going home.

Who is it?

Gosh! Disgusting.

How could he vomit this much?

This is a Guinness world record.

What the hell happened to him?

What else? He poisoned himself to commit suicide.

Suicide?

Then you call this a murder?

How could someone let him drink all of those?

It's not like it was one or two bottles.

No signs of him resisting at all.

No matter how much you wanted to die,

would you drink that much?

It's not like it was one or two bottles.

Looks like some piece of paper.

Man, he even ate paper.

(Unit 307/The Church of God)

He's dead?

Yes.

Get some rest for now. You don't look so good.

Who are you?

Who are you?

I heard So-jin had disappeared.

I was worried so I came by.

So many bad things have happened lately.

Are you close to this family?

We shared some food from time to time.

Since we're all neighbors.

Then did you know the woman who lived in 307?

That poor girl.

Why did she do such a thing?

Do you know why?

“So-jin, I'm sorry” was written on her will.

Do you know what that means?

I don't know anything about that.

But I'm not sure if I should tell you this.

Please tell us.

I thought something was wrong

with her head since she didn't talk at all.

But I learned that it was something else.

How could I put it…

I can't say it.

Ma'am!

She's possessed?

Not too sure if that's the right word for it.

Anyway, she's a very special girl.

At first I thought

she was just sick.

But then that girl from 307

told me one day…

She went to church often with

So-jin's mother and was close to them.

So when her mother wasn't home,

she'd look after So-jin.

So-jin, what are you doing?

So-jin.

Come out and eat, okay?

So-jin, what's wrong?

Why are you crying?

I feel sorry for Chang-shik.

What did you say?

Poor Chang-shik.

Who's Chang-shik?

Don't you know Chang-shik?

Kim Chang-shik!

Chang-shik's crying.

He's sad that he couldn't see his daughter before he died.

It was so strange.

Chang-shik was her father's name.

When she was a child,

her father left home

after he had an affair with some woman.

She didn't hear from him for many years afterwards.

Then he called her two years ago,

saying he'd come visit to see her.

But she said no to him. She didn't let him come.

She told him not to call

and said he wasn't her father anymore.

It's so freaky.

Girl who never speaks suddenly calls someone's father's name.

But what was freakier was that

she had a strange feeling.

Anyone would feel the same after hearing that.

So she went to the district office

to look at her father's records. Guess what?

And then she found out

that her father was reported dead a week ago.

She was shocked after hearing that.

That's so freaky.

Don't you think so? Yeah?

Don't you think?

Aren't you going to do something?

How do you expect me to trust what she said?

That sounds insane…

You believe that story?

But we should still look into it.

Look into what?

You expect a detective

to investigate some kind of superstition?

Go ask those American detectives.

You know, those X-file people.

Then what about the will and the keys?

What do you think they are for?

Do you have any intention at all to find So-jin?

There you said it.

We're just looking for a girl who ran away from home, okay?

It's not some murder case, you know.

So don't overreact.

People have died!

They were suicides!

Don't you get it?

What is it?

- We got it! - What?

Where?

Real estate store behind the apartment…

Okay, I'm leaving now.

Where are you going?

Do I have to tell you every single thing that I do?

I have a lot of other cases, you know.

So go home.

I'll call you if something comes up.

Damn it.

(Searching for Missing Person)

He's drinking it.

He's drinking it again.

I told you it was a suicide.

He's drinking it down.

Does it taste that good?

Rewind.

There's nothing to it. It's all the same.

Stop.

Stop.

Rewind a little bit more.

A bit more.

More.

There.

Doesn't that look like a talisman?

- Maybe. - It is a talisman.

Did Shaman Mansoo make it?

There's this famous shaman that lives in that apartment building.

Her name is Mansoo.

She was close to the security guard.

Do you know where you're going?

Ah… There it is.

(Shaman Mansoo)

Let's come back later. No one's here.

You know how to pick locks, right? Open it.

What?

We have to look for that talisman

and find out who and why someone made it.

Wait, so that talisman killed people?

Or maybe they needed it

because they were scared of something.

Ma'am.

What are you doing here?

I had left something behind.

What is it?

But why in this room?

Well, you see…

Is this it?

Why? What's with that?

What?

Because they're scared of something?

Get off!

Hee-jin.

Are you okay?

Daddy…

What?

You really don't need to go to the hospital?

I'm okay.

How far do you remember?

I remember getting hit all of a sudden.

And then it felt like I was dreaming.

But when I woke up, I was standing.

It was strange. It was a dream but how…

It's me.

Put out a search for that shaman for assault.

There's a possible kidnapping.

So call for backup.

Yeah, I just confirmed it.

Yeah, idiot.

That shaman is a key suspect at the moment.

Hurry and move it.

We'll get something after we catch her.

Excuse me.

You're a cop, right?

Please arrest me.

Please save me!

What's going on?

I saw So-jin!

You saw her in there?

She was standing there. Over there.

But no one's there.

She was there earlier.

I swear. Please trust me.

Do you know that shaman?

Do you have that talisman? The one made by the shaman?

The shaman didn't make it.

So-jin did.

I have uterine cancer.

The doctor said I only had six months to live.

So-jin's mother said I got cancer because I didn't go to church.

She said I'd be healed if I believe in God.

So I went to church,

thinking it was my last hope.

And that woman from 307 as well?

Jung-mi and I were like sisters.

So-jin's mother told us to go to church together.

So the three of us went…

I'm hungry.

I'm hungry. Give me some food.

I'm hungry.

Give me some food.

I'm hungry.

So-jin, we're going to church.

Put all the empty dishes in the sink after you're done eating.

Bring an umbrella with you.

That guy will die when it rains.

What?

He's going to die today.

He's going to die.

The man who lived in 709 suddenly passed away that night.

So-jin said he was going to die and he really did!

So-jin, you ate all this?

I'm hungry. Give me some food.

So-jin.

How did you know?

How did you know that he would die?

It's hot!

Oh no!

I'm so sorry!

Su-kyung.

What happened? Your face is okay now.

Are you okay, Su-kyung?

What about the talisman?

What about that shaman?

When I was depressed long ago,

I'd go to the shaman to ask my fortune.

But So-jin's mother said all that stuff

was Satan and superstition.

She told me never to go there.

So I didn't go afterwards.

I was so scared.

That girl wasn't a regular person.

I couldn't make out what she was.

I was so scared.

So I called the shaman.

I need to see this girl in person.

Oh my. What are you doing?

All I'm saying is let's just try find out.

How could we do such a thing?

That girl is possessed.

And it's very mad.

What's that got to do with me?

She said your father lived with regret, right?

And she said that he'll die and he really did?

But you all prayed to the wrong God.

Then what shall we do now?

What else?

You beg for mercy.

There are only two paths after we die.

It's either heaven or hell for eternity.

You must be on your way to church.

Yes.

Mister Kwon, believe in God and be saved.

Sure.

The shaman gave the guard some money and pulled him in.

And she made Jung-mi copy the keys

to So-jin's apartment without So-jin mom knowing it.

Put your hands on top of there.

Now!

Welcome. Welcome.

We are just descendents of mere humans.

Please give us your blessings.

We welcome you.

What are you all waiting for?

She said to burn the talisman and eat it

after we paste it in our homes.

Then we'd be cured and become younger.

So you did that to that poor kid?

But the weird thing is that

after I ate the talisman, I was cured.

The doctor said my cancer was gone.

How could that be?

Hello?

What?

What happened to her?

I don't know yet. She just went in.

What is that?

Someone ate this and got cured of cancer.

If you burn it and put it in water…

What?

Who knows? It could work for our Ji-eun.

Are you crazy?

All this stuff is superstition. Don't you get it?

Throw it away right now.

It gives me the creeps.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

Mom.

Mom?

Mom, what are you doing?

Mom, are you inside?

Mom!

Why did you lock the door?

Only those who believe in God can come into this room.

The same goes for you.

Is So-jin possessed?

Who said such an absurd thing?

What in the hell happened to So-jin?

“So-jin, I'm sorry” was written

on that dead woman's will.

What the hell is that? Mom. You must know something at least.

Tell me. You can't leave until you do.

Judgment has begun.

Not much time is left now.

What?

You have to get ready, too.

There's no time left.

You'll see whether I'm right or wrong.

Mom…

Mom, what happened to you?

How did you get like this?

It's so disappointing that you can't realize it.

Hee-jin…

Heed what I say.

God said that anything is possible for those who believe.

If you believe even at the last minute,

then you can be saved.

Sis, where are you going?

I have to go to Seoul.

Can I come with you?

Can't I go with you?

(Searching for Missing Person)

Excuse me.

Who is it?

I live next door.

What can I do for you?

I saw So-jin.

Pardon?

Where did you see her?

I saw her in the basement earlier.

So-jin is in the basement?

There's a furnace down there

so it's warm.

That's why it's so hot.

It's so hot.

But if it's $880 a month,

I guess it's okay.

Have you gone to the basement?

It's really nice down there.

Come with me.

I'll show you where it is.

I don't understand.

Wait here.

I'll go take this coat off.

Wait, hold on…

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Did you really see So-jin in the basement?

Hello?

The woman next door is dead.

What?

She just died. I saw her.

Where are you?

I'm in the basement.

She said So-jin's down here.

Hello?

Hello?

So-jin?

So-jin…

So-jin…

Where's So-jin? Where's So-jin?

You hid in the basement the whole time?

Su-kyung Hong told me everything.

Tell me the truth. Where's So-jin?

How should I know?

You're behind So-jin's disappearance.

That's why you hit Hee-jin and ran.

I was just looking for the bells.

What?

I was going to find the bells and leave quietly.

But I unfortunately ran into her.

What the hell are you talking about?

Why the hell are you

bringing up bells? What kind of bells?

Su-kyung must not have mentioned that day.

What?

Damn it!

The spirit must've left her briefly.

She couldn't make any more talismans.

Damn it.

What will you do now?

What will you do about the talisman?

She's not being possessed.

So what do you want me to do?

Then what about me?

Don't you have any other way?

Or do that crazy ritual thing again.

Crazy ritual?

Believe in God and be saved.

Do we have to go this far?

Goddamn. Why are you backing out all of a sudden?

Go home if you're scared!

What are you waiting for?

We need to hurry to end this fast.

So-jin!

Hey! Come here!

So-jin.

Stay still, will you?

Stay still.

So-jin, stay still. Please!

Good, stay still. It won't take long.

It'll be all over soon.

Who art thou?

What brings you to this world?

Oh, spirit.

You are the mightiest of them all.

Welcome, spirit.

You are the mightiest of them all.

Welcome, spirit.

So-jin, put your hands here.

So-jin.

Su-kyung, are you okay?

Look over there!

You will die now.

Yes?

Who?

Who will die?

All of you.

All of you will die.

This is ridiculous!

That wench! How dare she say that!

Oh no, she's hurt badly.

Oh no.

We have to call an ambulance.

And then what?

What will you tell them if they ask you what had happened?

There's no use. We should leave.

How can you leave now?

We still need the talisman!

Stop it!

She will die if we keep this up.

She's coming!

So-jin.

Hurry up!

Hurry and clean it up!

What shall we do about her?

What's there to do? Hurry and leave!

And leave So-jin like this?

Her mother will do something about it.

She won't leave her daughter to die.

What are you waiting for?

I don't know what happened afterwards.

Does that make sense?

You expect me to believe that?

Believe in whatever you'd like.

But she said we'll all die.

And three of us are already dead.

Does this make sense?

Stop talking crap.

Tell me the truth.

Oh no, someone in your family is in pain.

But she won't live that long.

Who the hell do you think you are?

What did you do to So-jin?

Take them outside!

I'm going to kill you!

- Stop it! - Who do you think you are?

- You're seriously helpless! - Hey, let go!

Where's So-jin? Tell me now!

That's enough!

What the hell are you doing?

What is it?

What?

You saw Su-kyung Hong late last night?

You said that she said she saw So-jin

in the basement?

- Yes. - She was found dead

at 7pm yesterday.

The time you insisted you saw her was

eleven hours after she had died.

I swear that I saw her.

I even talked to her.

Seriously… I swear.

Then what the hell is this?

It was you!

It was you…

You see hallucinations, right?

You have strange dreams, right?

It's looking for the next of kin.

What was in your sister has come to you!

You're possessed!

I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

I'm sorry! Please forgive me!

Please forgive me...

She's not answering.

She must be praying at church.

Your mother said your sister wasn't home.

Your mother lied from the beginning.

Who do you trust more?

Do you trust that shaman more?

What kind of mother would do that

to her daughter and lie?

Where's your mother's church?

(Chimgok Church)

No, it's not true.

She hasn't come to our church for a while now.

But she said she left to go pray.

I don't know whether she went to another church,

but she hasn't come to our church in a month.

Are you sure?

How could you remember so accurately?

There was an incident, you see.

An incident?

A month ago she had brought

her daughter to us.

And she explained that her daughter

had done miracles and made prophecies.

And that the Holy Spirit was in her.

She said that she was the Saviour.

Then I told her that it wasn't true.

That she shouldn't say those things in vain.

And that she shouldn't interpret the bible however she wants.

Those who believe even if they don't see Him shall be blessed.

But you all don't believe even when you can see Him.

You blind Satan worshippers!

The mother is the criminal.

I'm sure of it.

Trace her calls and search for her.

This is a misunderstanding!

My mother wouldn't do such a thing!

Someone says she's possessed

and someone says she's the Holy Ghost.

This is damned crazy.

Strange, isn't it? Why does manure smell bad?

Why does delicious food smell good?

Damn it.

I always thought that was so strange for a long time.

I'm really tired, Lady!

It smells bad but it tastes good.

How fun it would be if that's true.

Those crazy tramps.

Then I'd have to eat everything.

What happened?

Did you trace her mother's calls?

Her address came out.

- What? - That apartment.

So she's at home now?

- Are you sure? - Yes,

she was there ever since last night.

You've been fooling around with me the whole time.

Hey. Is it fun?

Is it fun, huh?

Tell me.

Where's your sister?

- What are you talking about? - You and your mother

plotted this whole thing out and hid your sister!

You think the police are some fools?

Tell me.

Where's your sister?

Tell me!

Sir, something terrible has happened!

- Come look inside! It's terrible! - What is it?

Hurry, go!

What happened?

What the hell is going on?

- She hung herself? - How did it happen?

Where did she go?

Who?

Mom.

Mom, where are you?

Mom.

Mom, are you inside?

Mom!

Mom?

Where is she?

She's not here.

Damn! Where did your mother hide her?

I told you she's not here!

Where is she?

Where is your mother?

That crazy woman…

Where did she hide her?

Then you look for her, you bastard!

It's you, huh?

You killed those people, right?

What?

If you hadn't, then it doesn't make sense.

You said they were suicides.

Suicides!

What the hell happened?

People die in front of you.

You see dead people.

That thing that's possessed you…

What the hell is it?

You…

Are you a ghost?

What the hell are you?

Tell me!

Tell me!

What the hell are you?

Hey.

What's wrong with you?

Hey!

Pull yourself together.

Daddy…

What?

When will I go home?

When will I get better?

What's wrong with you?

I want to go home.

You told me that

I will get better soon.

That I won't feel any pain anymore.

Daddy, you told me to trust you.

Were they all lies?

Please forgive me.

Please forgive me.

Please save my Ji-eun.

Please save her.

Please save my Ji-eun.

My Ji-eun…

Please save my Ji-eun.

Please forgive me.

Please save my Ji-eun.

Please save my Ji-eun!

Please save my Ji-eun...

Please save her…

Mom?

So-jin is dead?

Who did this!

So-jin will wake up soon.

Since you're here, she'll wake up now.

So-jin...

So-jin…

So-jin…

So-jin, what's wrong?

They'll die now…

Who will die, huh?

Everyone.

All of them.

What?

Mom.

Yes, Mom's right here.

Wake me up when Hee-jin comes.

Hee-jin?

Why?

So-jin?

So-jin.

So-jin.

So-jin... So-jin.!

That's why I called you.

So-jin told me to wake her up when you arrive.

So-jin, your sister is here. Now it's time to wake up.

Mom, what's wrong with you?

What are you talking about?

Have you forgotten what kind of girl So-jin is?

She came back to life before!

Honestly, back then

I despised God like a fool.

For making us suffer like that.

What sin did we commit for Him

to make us suffer so much?

But now I know.

So-jin was the chosen one.

So-jin is the Savior.

She is a savior who will save us sinners

by sacrificing her body.

So-jin will be resurrected now.

The world will end and judgment day will come.

So-jin said that everyone will die.

Mom, you've totally lost your mind.

Hee-jin.

It's still not too late.

If you believe even now,

then you can be saved, too.

How can I leave you in hell alone,

when So-jin and I are gone? Right?

What are you doing?

Mom, please stop.

It's all over.

Let's send So-jin away in peace.

No! No!

No…

If we pray a little bit more,

then So-jin will wake up

and we'll all be in heaven.

Then So-jin won't be in pain

and you'll suffer no more.

We will rest in peace forever.

Hee-jin… Please trust me, Hee-jin.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I don't trust you.

You can't trust me?

What can I do for you to trust me?

Will you trust me if I do this?

Mom, what are you doing?

Will you trust me?

Mom, What are you doing?

Mom, don't.

Don't.

Mom…

Hee-jin, let go.

I told you, didn't I?

Those who believe can do anything.

For those who believe

death means nothing.

Mom…

Please come up…

See?

So-jin has come back to life.

Her mother died on the spot

and Hee-jin was taken to the hospital.

But she survived.

She must have landed on top of her mother.

Supposedly her mother

held on to her till the end.

But still, they fell from such a high place.

It's a miracle.

Ji-eun, what happened to you?

Do you feel better?

I don't feel sick anymore.

Mom, when can I go home?

Ji-eun.

Thank you. Thank you.

Ji-eun.

Thank you.
