GYEONGSEONG CREATURE

Please don't kill us.

Please don't kill us.

What in the world happened here?

Is this my doing?

Hurray for the independence of Korea!

Gyeongseong will now...

welcome a new spring.

But my winter

has not ended yet.

Left behind by myself in this perfect hell...

I was forgotten by all.

But...

why?

Why are these things happening again?

Master Jang.

How is it that you are here?

Hey?

I think you're hugging the wrong guy.

Who is Master Jang?

I'm afraid I don't know who that is.

You're not Master Jang?

I'm not.

My name is Jang Ho-jae.

Are you all right?

Why did I do that?

It simply isn't possible.

Excuse me.

There's no way it could be him.

Hey!

Wait.

You haven't answered me yet.

About what?

About who you are,

why you were there that day, and your relationship with Oh Ki-hoon.

And why do I have to tell you any of that?

Because I'm about to take the fall

and become a murder suspect, all because I got mixed up with you.

So can you tell me why you were there?

I received a request

to find a missing person.

I went to the motel to find Oh Ki-hoon,

who was already dead when I arrived.

So you're in the same boat as me?

I wouldn't exactly say that.

You're a suspect, and I'm not.

The police also have you on video.

You'll be on the wanted list soon enough.

So?

Want to be on the same side?

You're not the culprit, and neither am I,

but both of us are under suspicion by the police.

We must help each other.

That's an arrogant way to ask for help.

Because there's no downside to being on my side.

I don't want to sound like I'm bragging,

but you could say I'm quite the hotshot in this field.

I work alone.

I hate getting tangled up with others.

I also don't like getting tangled up with others, but hey,

a person has died.

I don't take second punches.

A word of advice?

Even if you find the killer, you won't be able to handle them.

I'll be the judge of whether I can handle them or not.

Go for it, then.

And don't ask me for a free ride.

A free ride?

Who? Me?

Exactly.

Let's mind our own business and deal with our problems on our own.

GYEONGSEONG CREATURE BETWEEN FACT AND DISTORTION

EPISODE 2 SIGN

You're back? So, what happened?

Did you find the woman?

Don't talk to me. I'm not in the mood.

Yong-gil, do you know a Master Jang?

Who?

Master Jang.

No, it doesn't ring a bell.

Why?

That woman asked me if I was Master Jang.

So?

I told her I wasn't,

but it sounded familiar.

I thought maybe I'd heard it from you or something.

From me?

Probably not. I've never heard it before.

I'm making instant noodles. Want some? I can add more water.

No, I'm good.

Hi, Bugang Company's Jang Ho-jae speaking.

Who is this?

Job request.

Missing person's name, Jang Ho-jae. Age, early 30s.

He's been missing for about a year.

There is no photograph, only a drawing.

Do you accept?

Here you go.

Thank you.

Ethiopian, huh?

Paraguayan.

I actually don't know coffee that well. I just took a guess.

I don't know it well either. I just read the label.

I assume you're not here to find out my taste in coffee.

Let's cut to the chase. What do you want?

Actually...

I'm here to give you this.

JONGNO-GU SERIAL MURDER

CASE REPORT

These murders occurred in our jurisdiction in the past two months.

Mr. Oh Ki-hoon was the fifth victim.

The same MO was used in all five cases.

When the bodies were found, they were missing an eye and their brain.

Brain?

Like the one inside here?

To be honest, we've never seen this kind of murder before,

so even the detectives are a bit baffled.

We haven't even figured out what was used to suck out the brain.

Are you saying this was all done by one person?

Yes. It's the work of a single killer.

Still no reply?

If you're busy, you can leave a number and go.

I'll text you when a decision has been made.

How long have you been working with Silverbill?

I don't take any questions regarding Silverbill.

I only take requests to find missing persons.

The request for Ki-hoon...

are you the one who took it?

So this bar

is the reception, so to speak.

Right?

- I'M HEADING OVER NOW - DON'T COME

I'm curious. What is the meaning of this?

You must've given me the details of the investigation for a reason.

It's only fair.

You should at least know what kind of case you're jumping into

and how dangerous and horrific this culprit is.

This is the least I can do.

Are you new to Violent Crimes?

I transferred two months ago.

How many cases have you solved?

Just a couple of small-time ones.

Yet they gave you a serial murder case?

I can't pick and choose the cases I take. I'm just following orders.

Then why stick that on there?

A pretty noticeable spot, don't you think?

I'm sorry.

No worries. Did I startle you?

Yes.

ANOTHER VICTIM FOUND ALL DETECTIVES TO THE CRIME SCENE

It's another murder. This is the sixth one already.

- Let's go together. - What?

We ask for your cooperation.

Back up. Do not take pictures. Back up, please.

Back up, please.

Stop. This is a crime scene. Step back.

Has anyone been hurt?

This is a crime scene.

Please move. Clear the way.

This is driving me nuts.

I didn't think this would happen to her.

I know, right?

She was so good to me.

MADAM NA

Who are you?

How do you know Jang Ho-jae?

Did you kill Madam Na?

I asked her things, but she kept talking nonsense.

So yeah.

You crazy bastard.

Where are you?

Tell me where you are right now.

- I asked you a question. - No pictures.

You should be answering me.

Move out of the way. Please move.

Step back.

Step back. This is a crime scene.

Back up.

Thank you. I got here quicker thanks to you.

That's odd.

Why won't you die?

Shouldn't you be dead by now

with your neck broken or your insides ruptured?

If you're human, that is.

Who the hell are you?

Why did you kill Madam Na?

Did you kill Oh Ki-hoon too? Are you the one behind all of this?

You...

You're one of us.

Let's find out.

Who the fuck are you?

Hey, are you all right?

Are you hurt...

Hello? Someone's been stabbed.

Get here now!

Are you okay?

Hold on a little longer. The ambulance is on its way.

Hey!

You have to stay awake. Hey!

Stay with me. Hey!

Did you get some sleep?

You were sleeping so peacefully.

I didn't want to wake you.

Master Jang.

What's wrong?

Did you have a bad dream?

It was a wretched dream.

A terrifying...

and lonely one.

A dream is just a dream.

Don't think too much of it.

Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere.

I will be here

by your side forever.

Let him go. You're bleeding too much. We need to treat you now.

Yes, Mr. Chairman.

No, I'm on Level 1.

Pardon?

Last night?

JAZZ BAR OWNER IN HER 40S MURDERED BODY FOUND WITH DAMAGED EYE

I'll look into it and see what happened.

No. Don't concern yourself. I'll make sure it's taken care of.

Yes.

Call Seung-jo.

Yes, sir.

Do you know where the emergency patient went?

No, I haven't seen her.

How did it go? Is she all right?

I'm afraid she's disappeared.

We're searching the whole building right now,

but it seems like she's left the hospital.

What?

What are you...

Is a roundup really necessary?

Scare tactics are a bit outdated...

Do not cause trouble again. Do not act on your own.

It's because I acted on my own that I took care of that bastard Ki-hoon.

You know that!

When I'm talking, you listen.

Isn't it frustrating to live like this?

How long are you going to stay in hiding?

With our powers, we can live however we want!

Power that cannot be controlled is not real power, Seung-jo.

That's chaotic inertia and violence, nothing more.

Don't let me hear a peep from you for a while.

And don't do anything

until the incidents that you've caused die down.

Make one more mess,

and you'll have to explain yourself directly to the chairman.

If you'd like that, be my guest.

Are you sure he's dead?

Ho-jae.

Is he really dead?

Seung-jo.

Don't ever bring that name up again.

I'll gut you.

JONGNO POLICE STATION

This makes the sixth victim.

And the culprit left no trace.

None of the victims are related, save for the way they were murdered.

No patterns either.

Did you glean anything on your end?

Detective Noh.

Noh Ji-su?

Did you get anything?

No, nothing that stands out so far.

- So? - What?

So why are you sitting there if you haven't found anything?

Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on Jang Ho-jae?

No one told you to sit your ass down and listen to music.

I'll be off, then.

He's not home yet?

Where Silverbill lives? Well, I wouldn't know that.

I doubt even Madam Na knew that much.

They used text messages for communication.

They'd only call each other when it was urgent.

No one's ever met Silverbill or seen their face.

Why is this place so bleak?

They say you can never tell what life has in store for you.

Who would've thought Madam Na would die like that?

This is too much!

You said your grandson just graduated. Get him some nice clothes.

Speaking of, he applied for a job recently

and passed everything, even the interview, all in one go!

He's got a job already?

He's going to work at Jeonseung Biotech!

I was planning on buying him a nice suit.

Thanks, President Jang.

Yong-gil's the president.

Whatever!

All of us antennas know that Master Jang is the one keeping Bugang afloat.

Who?

What?

What did you just call me?

Oh, well...

there used to be a pawnshop where your office is right now.

House of Golden Treasure.

He was the owner of that pawnshop.

He was such a good man, even back during my mother's days.

Right, so,

who was he?

Just some guy.

Master Jang.

Master Jang.

That is the result of Experiment A0-67.

How far did we progress this time?

We weren't able to pass Stage 2 again.

Don't panic.

The moment it recognizes that you're frightened, it'll attack you.

Don't move. Stand your ground.

Please help me!

Don't look away. Keep still.

I can't do this! I can't!

How long do you intend to shove failed reports at me?

If you can't control those down there, we can't proceed to the next stage.

If you continue to show no results and lag like this,

we might have to bring him back.

I will find a solution.

The previous chairman planted the Najin in your head

so you could protect Jeonseung

and devote yourself to making great accomplishments.

If you can't stop making these absurd mistakes and failures,

I will dispose of you. You should not forget that.

I have not forgotten, sir.

Not for a single moment.

What about Seung-jo?

I've spoken to him. He will behave for the time being.

Tell him he'll be locked up forever if he stirs up trouble one more time.

I mean, murder?

In this day and age?

Eat up, man. It's getting all soggy. What a waste.

This place used to be a pawnshop. The House of Golden Treasure.

Is that right?

It was owned by a Master Jang.

Granny Antenna knew about it. Didn't you know?

Not sure. I might've heard about it and forgot.

What now?

I'm just asking.

Is there anything more I should know about myself

before the accident last year?

No, there isn't.

I told you pretty much everything you need to know. Why?

What else do you wanna know?

I wouldn't know what more there is to know.

What I remember about myself all comes from after the accident.

My memories from before the accident were filled in by you.

Ho-jae, do you trust me?

I do.

And no one in this world worries and cares for you as much as I do, right?

Yeah, I know that.

So just listen to me.

You're much better off now than you were before the accident.

It's not always great to live with all your memories intact.

Looking at you, I can see why they say oblivion is a gift to mankind.

Your life's already been reset,

so it doesn't seem so bad to move on and live a new life.

Was my life that bad?

You're making it serious again!

That's not what I'm saying.

You said I should move on and live a new life since it's been reset.

That means that my life before the accident was unhappy

or screwed up or something, right?

The accident happened, and you lost your memories...

Yes, about those memories...

I want them back.

Ho-jae.

Can you tell me?

What was I like?

I mean, how screwed up was I?

Come on.

Your life?

It was totally, extremely, freaking annoyingly screwed up.

It was depressing, miserable, and unhappy.

Totally and extremely lame.

You were a step away from hell, strung out with paranoia, anxiety, and insomnia.

You'd cause trouble and smash everything because you had anger management issues.

So there's no reason at all for you to look back at your past life.

There's nothing to be curious about.

What you should do

is believe, see, think of, and enjoy only what's in front of you.

There's jajangmyeon in front of you,

and all you have to do is enjoy it.

You must've had a really hard time.

Hey, Ho-jae.

UNKNOWN NUMBER

Hello?

Hello?

It's me.

Where are you?

How's your injury? Are you okay?

Can I come in for a minute?

What...

What happened?

Your offer.

Does it still stand?

To be on the same side.

I'm wondering if it still stands.

Hello?
