(All places, names, organizations, groups...)
(and religions in this drama are fictitious.)
Unit 310?
You need to move out.
How many bags is that man going to take up?
It's time to get to work.
Jong Woo.
Ji Eun!
Ji Eun, Ji Eun!
I can explain. Ji Eun!
- Let me go! - I'm sorry.
- I'm so sorry. I can explain. - Let me go.
Please hear me out.
I can explain everything.
- Just give me a moment. - Explain what?
About that studio again?
When you were starting to turn weird,
I thought it was just because you hadn't gotten used to Seoul yet.
I've been waiting for you to be back to your normal self.
I thought it'd be fine if I waited,
but what is this?
Ji Eun.
Look at me.
Let's...
take a break.
(Episode 9. Cognitive Dissonance)
It only has a week's worth of footage.
There's no footage of the car driving out.
Hello.
I have a question.
Do you know this area well?
I know this place like the back of my hand.
I see.
Have you seen an abandoned car around here then?
- A car? - Yes.
I don't think I have.
I see.
Why do you ask?
Sorry,
I'm Soh Jung Hwa from Eunhye Patrol Division.
- You're the police? - Yes, I am.
I have another question.
Then...
do you know of a remote place...
where a car may be hidden?
When you drive up there,
there's an area that's remote and a little creepy.
I don't think a woman should go alone there.
How can I get there?
Do I just drive straight?
Drive up around 500m and you'll reach a field.
There's a path that doesn't seem like you can drive down.
Walk in there and you'll find the place.
That's just liquid coming out of food waste.
Found it.
Let me make a phone call.
(Jo Hyun Ho)
- Hello? - Hyun Ho.
- Yes? - Can you look up a car ID number?
- A car ID number? - Yes.
KNAJC5213.
(Seok Yun)
(Jong Woo, I'm drinking with the guy in Unit 304 right now.)
(He's not as bad as I thought.)
(Hey, are you crazy?)
Something is off.
(Seok Yun)
The number you've dialed is unavailable right now...
Seok Yun isn't the one who sent the message.
To the intersection in Eunhye-dong, please.
(Are you all right?)
(Pick up your phone!)
- You found this here? - Yes.
- Make sure to check it properly. - Okay.
I'm sorry,
but can you be somewhere else?
- Sorry. - Okay.
Hey.
Are you Ms. Soh Jung Hwa?
Yes.
I'm Detective Lee Kwang Jae.
Hello.
It's great that you're doing your job as the police,
but there's a proper process in investigations.
- Right. - Don't you know what happens...
when you ignore that?
I'm sorry,
but I told you over the phone...
that Detective Cha might have been murdered or abducted.
I told you about the syringe needle that I found.
- The syringe needle? - Yes.
Have you found anything else? Any suspects?
For now,
my dentist seems suspicious.
- Your dentist? - That's...
Are you trying to say that a dentist...
murdered someone with a syringe?
That's not what I meant. I sent you the needle...
- so that you can get it checked. - Hold on.
Hold on.
- Ms. Soh. - Yes.
Do you know exactly where Detective Cha drove up to...
and exactly where the car is parked?
That's what I want to ask you to do.
- You're asking me to do that - You can check...
solely based on the syringe needle that you found.
Don't you think you're going overboard with such little evidence?
You can pick up syringe needles anywhere and everywhere.
I need to speak to you for a moment.
Go ahead.
A body has been found...
- Follow me. - Okay.
- Goodness. - Detective.
Can you tell me what's going on?
A corpse has been found in Omok-dong...
A corpse?
and it has a mark of syringe needles on the neck.
I'll just go in and get Seok Yun out of the place.
I can't leave him alone here because it's too dangerous.
(Maum Church)
Hey!
Can you tell the guys upstairs to walk quietly?
Why do people there walk like they're stomping?
I can't focus on my prayer.
What's that? Oh no...
My goodness.
Seok Yun.
Seok Yun!
Jong Woo.
Did I scare you?
I thought it'd be funny to pull a prank on you.
- Funny? - Yes.
You idiot.
You think this is funny?
You think this whole thing is funny?
- I'm sorry. - Tell me.
You really think this is the time for you to joke around?
I'm sorry.
Are you one of these guys?
What do you mean, one of them? I'm on your side.
What do you think?
Don't you think you feel the warmth from your hands?
Calm down.
That moment, I thought,
"What if he's one of them?"
Hold on, Jong Woo.
Calm down. Let's stay together here.
You know I like you.
You idiot. Get out of here.
I can't.
You're insane.
You're just like them.
You know that?
Jong Woo, I've been...
I've been thinking,
I don't think we need to be so scared of the guys here.
- What? - I've been talking to them...
and I've realized that they're all good people.
- Let me go. - So you should...
also open up a little bit and live with us.
- You're insane. - Let's live here together.
You can't judge a book by its cover.
Jong Woo, do you want to come and watch me perform?
Please!
Do you want to come and watch me perform?
Please.
Please stay with me.
See?
You think you're close, but you're all strangers in the end.
I...
tried my best.
You heard it all.
- So please... - I know.
I know you tried your best.
But you failed,
so here comes the punishment.
Oh my goodness.
I thought you'd be dead by now.
The lady really went a little too far, didn't she?
Do you want me to save your life?
Just wait.
I'm going to slice you up...
along with everyone else here.
But for today,
let me have a little taste of blood.
Darn it!
Darn.
Right.
This makes things more fun.
You want to have some fun?
You want to?
What is he calling about again?
Take a break.
Yes, Mr. Park. What's up?
Where are you right now?
Where? Home, obviously.
Those monsters.
I'm never coming back here again.
Monsters.
The electronic anklet bracelet seems to be running out of battery.
Make sure you go to your room and charge it now.
If you don't within 10 minutes, the police will come to you.
I'm going to have to charge it then.
All right.
I should leave this place as soon as possible.
Where are you going?
Ms. Eom. Do you speak Mandarin?
Oh, did I not tell you?
My ex-husband... No.
My ex-ex-husband was a Korean expat.
You got so lucky with men.
How do you like me?
Come to my room if you feel lonely at night.
When I ran an orphanage,
I was really good at picking out the kids that were lying.
Those kids had this look in their eyes.
Like you now.
Shall I tell you how my ex-husband died?
He was blind.
But he slipped and fell down the stairs.
She's crazy.
Watch the stairs.
So the surveillance cameras were down?
It caught nothing but a mess.
- This? - Yes.
What about the syringe?
There was a needle mark on his neck.
- Did you find the syringe? - No, it wasn't here.
- The assailant... - Wait. Excuse me.
Once the National Forensic Service carries out the autopsy,
we'll find out what drug...
was in the victim's system.
You know the syringe you found?
If they confirm it's the same drug,
I'll visit the studio then...
- and check... - But...
I told you about the studio last time.
Yes, and I'll check.
It could be too late. They might be killing someone else.
Will you... Look, Ms. Soh.
- Yes? - Do you see me working?
We're doing the best we can.
Go back to your division and wait.
- Let's go. - Now go.
Let's go.
Save me.
You wanted to know...
what had been happening on the 4th floor.
Save me.
What happened to the guy who lived in your room.
They're all here.
Save me...
I got it, I got it.
It's time to eat.
What's this?
Who dared to leave a mark on my property?
Where are you going?
Ms. Eom. Do you speak Mandarin?
Let's wear my new shoes and jump up high
My brother is the best.
No, no.
I was just passing through. I was passing through.
What's your problem?
Are you sure?
If you leave now, you'll miss an exclusive.
What exclusive?
About a serial killer.
A serial?
I can show you.
What do you want from me?
- Money? - I don't need money.
I just want to teach someone a lesson.
That guy...
who just went into the studio?
It's not one but two guys.
Two?
- Do you have proof? - I'll give that to you.
You just have to write the story I want.
What do you say? Yes or no?
Which one will you pick?
Make up your mind quick.
I won this game.
My gosh.
How will Jong Woo feel when he gets this?
Don't you want to know?
Don't kill me.
I'll go and finish this. Wait here.
Let's take a break.
(Ji Eun... I'm sorry.)
(Eunhye Patrol Division)
Jung Hwa.
You slept here?
What's all that?
A case file.
- The studio? - Yes.
Is something going on?
You should go home to sleep.
I'll get changed.
(Sorry for the early text. Mr. Shin died yesterday. Did you know?)
Hey, Longhair.
You wanted to kill him...
when your girlfriend got out of his car.
He's definitely the killer.
Hold on, Jong Woo. Let's stay together here.
You know I like you.
Get out of here.
I can't.
Jong Woo. Please!
Please stay with me.
Then yesterday, Seok Yun too...
No. No.
No, no.
911, this is Officer Kim. How can I help?
Murderers. There are murderers.
What? Murderers?
I think there are murderers in the studio I live in.
A studio?
In that studio,
these people conspired and they might have...
- Sir, please calm down. - 1, 2...
3, no 4 people.
It's possible that they may have killed more than this.
Did you witness the scene firsthand?
No, I didn't.
- Have you been drinking? - Excuse me?
Sir, if you make a prank call when you're drunk,
you can be subject to punishment.
What did you say?
Making prank calls are also...
- subject to criminal punishment. - Prank calls?
Do you think this is a prank call?
People are getting killed! And you call this a prank call?
Why don't you try the nearest Patrol Division...
- and file a report? - You crazy punks!
I just said people are getting killed!
Gosh.
What should I do?
(Mom)
Hello, Mom.
Jong Woo.
What's going on? Is everything okay?
It's nothing.
Are you sure?
Anyway.
Why did you call so early in the morning?
Did my brother get hurt again?
No. I just thought of you.
Are you sure everything is fine?
Yes. But now I need to get to work.
- Right, eat good breakfast. - Yes.
I'll hang...
Jong Woo.
I am always there for you.
- You know that, right? - Yes.
Hello, ma'am.
Hello.
Are you praying for your son?
Yes, his exam is in just a few days.
Did you say it was Teacher Certificate Examination?
No.
Civil Service Examination.
If so, you should have sent him to our studio.
If he had studied here, he would have passed it right away.
Don't say that. This place...
My son is studying at the private academy.
I'll get going.
Ma'am.
These days, my spirit isn't as clear as it should be.
Do you have a few minutes to spare for me?
- I would like to talk to you. - Excuse me?
I am a Christian too.
That's why the studio is called "Eden".
Well, then...
Why don't we go somewhere else and talk?
- Well... But... - Just come with me.
But I should...
I am really struggling these days.
- Just come with me. - Sure.
I am a regular here, and it's really nice and quiet.
We can sing gospels if we feel His Grace.
- Let's go in. - Still...
This is spacious.
But isn't this cool and nice?
The government has issued a typhoon watch...
as the typhoon "Gimi" is approaching Korea.
Gyeonggi Province is expecting...
hourly precipitation of 30 to 40mm...
The promotion of the program can start about eight weeks before.
The agency will send us the information about the casting list.
I will send it to you in a week.
Sure.
Please put more effort into that casting list.
You know how we start is very important.
Of course I do.
Once the casting list is finalized,
please post it on our social media account,
so we can attract a lot of attention online.
I see.
Is our promotion material ready?
Bo Mi, can you get in touch with Ji Eun?
I am still trying but I can't now.
She is so irresponsible.
That's fine.
Can we go for Camera Three again?
Ready? Action!
Only that tears that well up
Would know how I feel
That person is you
Come on.
- Do you not like to sing? - Not so much.
I wanted to be a singer.
I can live without a man, but I can't live without singing.
- Why don't we sing together? - It's fine.
Do you feel disgusted?
You think I killed my husband, right?
If you don't think so, let's sing together.
Come here. Sit down.
Sing with me.
- I don't want to have that person - Want to have that person
I don't want him
- I just want to love him - I just want to love him
- You don't know - You don't know
- That I have a fabulous lover too - That I have a fabulous lover too
He is so precious that I hid from everyone else
Jong Woo.
Jong Woo? Did you see the right person?
What's wrong with him?
Why?
Why is this happening?
Do you really not know?
You killed him.
You killed both Jae Ho and Seok Yun.
Let's be honest.
You were happy, right?
It wasn't me.
It wasn't.
I didn't kill them.
I didn't do it.
It wasn't me.
Jong Woo?
What are you doing?
"He would then wake up and look around in the dark."
"He then realized that he can't move his body."
"But he didn't find that weird."
"He even felt unnatural..."
"that he could move so far with his thin legs."
"On the other hand,"
"he felt relatively at ease."
Maybe this is how Jong Woo feels right now.
Knock knock.
Are you reading a boring book?
I cleaned the room.
What if Unit 303 doesn't come back?
What do we do then?
He'll be back soon. Don't worry.
Can you predict the future or what?
How do you know that?
I have a gift for Jong Woo.
He will definitely come to get it.
It's nice to be with us.
You can kill anyone you want.
You can do the rest.
Really?
Yes. I need...
to go somewhere.
Where?
Before we leave here,
we need to take care of smelly things.
Of course we do.
Oh yes!
Yes! I am so excited!
It's going to hurt you a little.
Try to withstand it as much as you can.
What did you say?
I can't hear you.
What did you say?
I can't hear you.
How could he beat up someone this bad?
That person
- Can only... - Were you out somewhere?
Hey.
I'm leaving here soon...
so I just went to cleanse all my sins.
Where are you headed?
I have some business to take care of.
Unit 303 is lucky.
By the way,
when...
we get out of here, what are we going to do with them?
I beg your pardon?
If Unit 303 comes back,
we need to take care of them!
Yes, we should take care of them.
Both of them, right?
Yes, both of them.
I'll see you later.
Mun Jo.
We will now only have the good ones here, right?
Don't feel pity for me
Someday
Let me check if you are alive.
You're doing quite well!
Maybe that's because you are young.
Hey, do you want some meat?
- What? - No.
- Don't kill me. - Well.
You ate so much last time!
You were such a nice student.
Why did you get snatched by the wrong person?
But I am not sure.
That Unit 303 punk is another level of crazy.
Well...
what do you think?
Don't you think that punk looks down on me?
What do you think?
Do you think that punk looks down on me?
He does whatever he wants, right?
That punk killed my brother too!
Now I am getting angry.
Darn it!
Darn.
Yes, we were being nice to him...
and he thinks we are some kinds of bugs that he can kill?
Should I just kill him?
What do you think? Should I just kill him?
Answer me!
- Hey. - Yes?
Do you want to run away from here?
Right?
Then why don't we have a bet?
Let's bet whether you can run away or not.
- Yes. - That's great.
Okay.
Before that punk returns.
All right.
Why don't you start? Go?
Go on. Let's try this.
All right. Start!
You can do it.
Come on. Go.
All right. That's it.
You can get out of here alive. You shouldn't give up.
I think you can do it even if you can't walk.
Yo-heave-ho!
Green light
How far did you go?
Hey!
Oh my!
What happened to you?
Please save me.
Goodness.
Oh my goodness.
Hide here.
I will cover so he can't find you.
Ms. Eom, have you seen the student from Unit 310?
Well, I heard some noise from the rooftop.
Why don't you go to the rooftop?
I caught you.
It's over now.
Were you two having fun?
Come here.
(Eunhye Patrol Division)
What is this?
I responded to a call last night. Someone mixed poison in food.
The other cats were dead, except for this one.
Eden Studio...
What's going on over there?
I am scared.
The residents of that studio...
are all very strange.
I don't need anything else.
I just need to move on.
It was just a nightmare.
(Soh Jung Hwa)
Jong Woo.
Sergeant Yun. We have a problem.
What is it?
Sergeant Cho is causing trouble again at the incineration site.
That crazy punk.
He was so quiet these days. Why is he doing it again?
It's you, right?
It's Chang Hyun.
I can't believe we've met here.
What are you up to these days?
I just came back from a funeral of my friend's dad.
Why does your face...
Is everything okay?
What...
Jong Woo.
What is it?
- Is he not answering? - He's not.
Poor thing.
Am I really the police?
I can't do anything.
Jung Hwa.
What am I going to do?
Were you two talking behind my back?
- No way. - Work hard.
Yes, sir.
Come here, you cute thing.
What is he doing?
- Did you bring it? - Oh, sir.
You're so impatient.
What's inside?
Why did he use such a huge tin?
Are you sure about this?
Yes, I'm very sure about it.
When can I expect the article?
I'll be posted this evening.
It'll be huge.
I'll post a comment when it's out.
- I'm off then. - Okay, bye.
(A Studio of Murders! A Dentist and his Collaborators)
Do you like murderers?
I want to report something bad.
There's a dead body here.
Near the entrance to Eunhye Park.
I don't even know where exactly, it's so gruesome.
This neighborhood was quiet...
What's happening here? My goodness.
Yes, please get here soon. Gosh.
Officer Jo, call the detectives first. No.
Call the head of our division first.
Don't touch anything, okay?
What are you doing? Call our head.
Okay.
You should know the protocol.
Make the call now.
Did she have to vomit over there?
Shall we order something?
Can we move to a table in the corner?
What for?
Is this spot better?
Yes.
Why are you in Seoul?
Your family's in Busan.
What?
A senior from university found me a job here.
Oh, you're here to work.
Where do you live?
Jong Woo.
Where do you live?
Something isn't right. What's up with you?
Jong Woo.
It's a bit weird that I'm doing this...
when I didn't call you once...
after we both left the army.
I personally feel that...
you're like a real brother to me.
I'm so grateful.
You know why.
My dad died when I was a private,
and had a hard time getting used to army life.
You were the only one who cared for me.
Only you looked out for me...
and worried about me.
I've been working for a while now,
and no one has done that for me since.
I mean it.
I'm so grateful for that.
I still think about it.
That's why I want to help you out...
as best I can if you're in a tough spot.
You can tell me what's going on.
Darn these bugs. We can run the car's registration.
Then we can get what we need.
Hand these over.
Yes, sir.
Hello.
We meet often.
Yes.
Is this case connected to Shin Jae Ho's death?
The MO's completely different.
Mr. Shin got a tranquilizer shot in his neck...
before he was hit in the head.
This guy was stabbed in the neck.
What are you doing here?
The two people knew each other.
They knew each other?
I don't think it's connected to the studio though.
It could be resentment or revenge.
We'll find out by investigating.
- Let's go. - Okay.
So basically,
you're done for.
You're in a bad spot.
Let's see.
So all the people who left the studio...
seem to have gone missing.
And you think a few of them...
are locked up in the 4th floor of the building.
Including your university senior.
- The funeral I was at. - Yes.
It was for my senior.
My gosh.
Jong Woo.
It doesn't make sense at all.
We're right in the middle of Seoul.
Such dreadful things are happening here?
Unless those people are...
completely out of their minds...
They are crazy.
They're psychos.
Did you call the police? What did they say?
They asked if I'm drunk...
and that I shouldn't make prank calls.
(Ji Eun)
Ji Eun.
Jong Woo...
(I brought him to Seoul and I feel bad.)
(I'm outside your place. Can you come out?)
(It won't take long.)
(Are you really Jae Ho? You sound different.)
(How did you know that I'm at home?)
(Jae Ho)
Excuse me.
Hello.
What are you doing here?
Jong Woo gave me the address.
He did?
Yes.
He asked me to give you this.
Where is he right now?
I know where he is. Come with me.
No, thanks.
Jong Woo...
It's me.
Why are you with Ji Eun?
Your girlfriend wants to see you.
I beg of you.
Please don't touch Ji Eun.
Please don't.
Okay?
Well, I have a different idea.
Are you going to...
It's exactly what you think.
This woman means nothing to me.
You psycho.
If you so much as touch a hair on her, I'll kill you.
I'll kill you, okay?
Jong Woo.
She wants you to stay like the guy from Unit 310 did.
Will you run away again?
You lunatic!
Ji Eun. Ji Eun!
I will kill you.
I'll kill you. Where are you?
Where are you?
I'm excited.
I'll be waiting in your room.
Taxi!
Wait, wait.
To Eunhye-dong and be quick.
- I'm coming too. - I have to hurry.
You can't go alone into a room of psychos.
Scoot to the side.
You can go now.
I was on my way back.
(Eden Studio)
If I go inside,
can I come back out alive?
But at that moment, I realized that...
I can no longer escape or hide.
(Stranger from Hell)
If you go inside, you'll both get hurt.
I'll come over.
- Don't move. - Jong Woo.
Aren't you having fun?
Whoever you want, you can kill...
or let live.
You feel like a deity.
No. No human being does what you do.
This hell will end once you die.
Okay then.
How about you finish the novel you started?
