MOUSETRAP

You won the Best New Writer award
for your novel Interview.

And after Evil Always Prevails,
some even called you a genius.

So what was it that made you
suddenly become a recluse?

The word "recluse"
is perhaps a little strong.

How should I put this?

-I felt like a hack. Uh…
-[laughs]

My new novel wasn't coming along.

Until… I thought maybe I was written out.

I lost both my parents
back when I was a senior in high school.

Shortly after,
I developed a panic disorder.

-And it was fine for a while.
-I see.

Until I got stuck and it started again.

It was a really difficult time for me.

[interviewer] Yes, I see.

When it happened, all I wanted to do
was to go into hiding.

Much like the Rat character
in the novel, you see.

[tense, solemn music playing]

Are you saying he's not dead?
All that was fake?

You said the guy who told you
was a professional f*cking con man.

Identity fraud.

Are you kidding me? Jesus Christ.

-I need to go talk to somebody.
-Now where are we going?

SAFER COMMUNITIES
WITH DONGBU POLICE

How are you?

[music fades]

Hello.

Ms. Han, thanks for meeting me.

It would appear you've come back to us
with more than just a new novel.

You've brought controversy
with you as well.

-Ah. I'm really sorry about all this.
-Mm, it's okay.

We're gonna catch the culprit.

But why are we at this police station?
It's not even close to your place.

No reason.
I just thought it'd be convenient.

Oh. [chuckles]

Well, anyway, I'm sure our lawyer here
will take care of it. Mm.

-All right, let's head in.
-Yeah.

[The Rat] Let's go.

Ugh. Man, I can't believe
how hot it is, can you?

[Ji-hye] We would also like
to request some personal protection.

Moon-jae, did the impersonator
threaten you or try to intimidate you?

Not really, but…

He did try to go
to my high school reunion,

where he told everyone he was me.

After that, then I heard
that one of our classmates…

they found his body,
and someone had taken his kid.

-[officer] Oh, that case?
-[The Rat] Yes.

-How was he able to fool your classmates?
-[The Rat inhales]

-I don't know. I mean…
-[door slams open]

[suspenseful music playing]

They all said that this guy looked…

like my twin.

[laughs]

So, she was your editor-in-chief back when
you got the Best New Writer award?

So, why the hell is she publishing a book
with that as*h*le?

You really believe she can't tell
that guy's an imposter?

Yeah, that's because
we almost never met in person.

We talked through email.

I'm a recluse.
That's why I write under a pen name.

Did you commit a crime or something?

I don't get it.
Why would you need to hide your name?

That's just how writers are, I guess.

We're not like everybody else.

But this guy didn't use a pen name.

And he's convinced everyone he's you.

That he's the real Je Moon-jae.

It's crazy. I mean,
the title of his book is The Rat.

[Noja sighs] Hey, by the way…

How… how did that story end?

You know, the story… I mean the folktale,

where the guy becomes human
by eating the fingernails.

-Hmm.
-So, uh… how does it end?

It's…

a happy ending.

Well, great! So it has a happy ending.

It doesn't have some
weird f*cking twist at the end, right?

Yeah. And the good guys always win.

Are you sure you're the good guy?

[quiet, suspenseful music playing]

[Sun-yong] How do we know
you are who you say you are?

Ah. Right.

You want evidence
to prove that I'm Je Moon-jae.

Ah.

When he won his award, the publishing
house I worked for handled his work.

-I was editor-in-chief.
-[The Rat] Yeah.

So tell me. Why would someone want
to pretend to be you?

Um, I guess maybe because he

wanted to steal my life.

[scoffs] So he got surgery?

Even if he did get surgery,

he wouldn't look exactly like me.

There'd be some little differences, right?

[Sun-yong sighs]

I don't give a sh*t what you look like.

All I know is one of you
is a bad guy that's k*lled people.

The bad guy? [inhales sharply]

I don't know.
I don't necessarily think it's that.

I think it's about survival.

At least, that's the type
of situation he's created.

Are we finished here?

[chuckles]

COMPLAINT

COMPLAINANT: JE MOON-JAE
ACCUSED: JE MOON-JAE

[music fades]

-[Sun-yong] Hey, not so fast.
-[The Rat] Hmm?

Je Moon-jae… Je Moon-jae.
That sounds familiar.

Have we met somewhere before?
I feel like we must have, no?

No.

Tell me. Why you?

What?

Why is he going through all this trouble
to steal your identity?

Do you two… know each other?

I don't know. I… I was
wondering that very same thing, actually.

Hmm. Maybe I'm wrong, but…

Still, it's just…

There's something
that's not adding up here.

There has to be a police station
near your house, right?

So why did you come all the way here
just to file a simple complaint?

I was at a friend's funeral earlier,

and I heard that you guys were
investigating his case.

I thought it'd be helpful
to file it at the same station.

Isn't it helpful?

[lawyer] Mm.

[Sun-yong] Mm.

I should be going.

[Noja] Okay.

[Moon-jae] This should be it.

Did it move?

NOVEL THE RAT

[Noja] It's Han Ji-hye, right?

-Editor-in-chief?
-Yeah.

She started her own publishing house.
You should've verified that first.

Ah, sh*t. What do we do?

Well, obviously,
we should go to this address

and tell her that
someone's been lying to her.

-[sighs]
-I mean, who knows?

Maybe she'll be our cat.

Like in the folktale. Where the cat
catches the rat that turned into a human.

The cat's the one

that knows who the imposter is.

All right, let's go.

THE RAT

What is it?

Oh, nothing.

You just seem different.

-Really?
-You used to be so shy.

You hated meeting people.
You hated visiting the publishing house.

[The Rat] Hmm.

When I offered you some coffee,
I thought you would head out. [chuckles]

But here you are.
You're drinking coffee. It's surprising.

Is it really so strange?

I guess your panic disorder's
all better now. That's good.

[phone buzzing]

Excuse me.

Yes?

[Moon-jae] Is this Han Ji-hye?

I'm not sure if you remember me.
I'm Je Moon-jae.

[sinister music playing]

You were my editor back
when I won the Best New Writer award.

There's something I need
to tell you in person.

I saw the video of the book launch.
That wasn't me.

That man is deceiving you.

Hey, hold on.

He stole my identity while I was stuck
at home because of my panic disorder.

It's difficult to explain, but I'm
near the publishing house right now.

I'll explain it to you in person.
It won't take long.

Could you spare a few minutes?

[music fades]

[soft Muzak playing]

Listen, you're the only person
who can help me right now.

How can you prove
that you're the real Je Moon-jae?

Well, that's the thing.

-You'll have to do it for me.
-[gasps shakily]

Uh… [sighs]

[Ji-hye sighs]

So, The Rat. Did you actually write that?

Uh no, I didn't write that one.

I think that guy wrote it.
He obviously used my childhood

and the story of my parents' death
for his book.

This guy stole my whole life
and used it as a motif in his story.

I don't have time to get into it all.
He knows who I am and…

Wait. Stop, stop, stop. Just hold on.

I know for a fact
that Je Moon-jae wrote The Rat.

I'm sure of that.

A person can lie all they want,
but their writing can't.

I've read Je Moon-jae's books
since his first novel.

You think a guy who stole my entire life,
who's pretending to be me,

can't imitate how I write?

Your panic disorder.

What happened with that?
Are you all better now?

No, I'm not. I was forced
to leave my apartment

because of everything
that's been going on.

Je Moon-jae wouldn't even be sitting here
unless he were all better.

His panic attacks were really severe.

[Moon-jae] Right,
but that's what I'm saying.

I may look fine on the outside,

but I'm barely
holding it together with my meds.

-Look. I take these to--
-[running steps]

-Let's go. We're outta here.
-Huh?

-Why?
-[Noja] Just hurry!

-Come on!
-[Moon-jae] But why?

[urgent, tense music playing]

[sighs]

[officer 1] Right,
did you get all the footage?

-[man 1] That's right.
-[officer 2] No. I'll keep digging.

-[officer 1] I wanna see earlier footage.
-Remember what the suspect looked like?

[officer 1] Right there.

There.

[music fades]

[Sun-yong] Next time
something like this happens,

I want you to call me directly.

Don't use the police hotline.

Ah, this is crazy. Uh…

You thought if you asked for his ID,

he'd go, "Sure, here you go,"
and hand it over?

I wanted to see it for myself, that's all.

I wasn't sure, because he mentioned being
stuck at home due to his panic disorder.

Je Moon-jae did have
a severe panic disorder.

What's your conclusion?

Hmm? Is he the fake one?

He was with that thug
from the picture you showed earlier.

Well, it would've been nice
if I'd been there. Okay?

We're both busy people,
and this is just a waste of time.

[Ji-hye] Yes, I understand that.

I'll be sure to call you
if he contacts me again.

Please, just catch
the scammer who ran away.

Hold it.

He's not a scammer.

He's a m*rder*r.

Fine. m*rder*r.

He was stuck at home
because of panic disorder?

KIDNAPPING CASE FATHER
FOUND DEAD IN THE HANGANG RIVER

SUSPECT LINKED TO sh**ting CASE

Everyone's against us.

No matter where we go,
no one wants to help.

Hey, as*h*le! What the hell
could you have possibly done to him

to cause this f*cking mess anyway?

I don't know! I don't even know what's
going on, okay? You understand?

No one's telling me anything either!

I guess I don't have proof!

Can you prove you're you?
How would you prove it, huh?

-That's it, m*therf*cker! I've had it!
-[tires screech]

Someone else would prove it!

People would be able
to provide evidence of my identity!

Why the f*ck doesn't that work for you?

Why can't anyone else vouch for you?
as*h*le!

Ah, f*ck it!

Forget about proving it.

We need a place to lay low somewhere.

[Min-gi] So, what do you want me to do?

[Noja] I need you to look into him.

And be thorough.

I want everything.
Find out who this guy is.

Je Moon-jae or not.

Okay?

He never caused us any problems.
He said hello every time I saw him.

I wish I had more.
But he did live here, sir.

Hmm… Well, yeah.

Yeah, I know that guy.
He lives right around here.

He used to come here
all the time to get takeout.

[man] Oh, the Heineken guy.

Yeah, once a week, usually on Friday,
he gets four cans of Heineken.

Okay, as*h*le. What were you doing
in there all that time?

[suspenseful music playing]

[sighs]

[Sun-yong] Got a tip.

THE BODY WAS NOT A SUICIDE

[Sun-yong] So tell me.

Why would someone
want to pretend to be you?

Um, I guess maybe because he

wanted to steal my life.

[Sun-yong] Who is the real one?

[sighs]

sh*t.

[phone bleeps]

[The Rat] Hang on, detective.
You wanna know where I was

during the first week of this month,
is that right?

Uh, I don't think anyone else
could verify where I was.

Everyone says that when they know they've
been caught. Is that what's going on?

No, it's not that.

I was… alone.

It was the day before my book came out.

Unfortunately, no one can vouch for me.

Yeah? And where were you?

I rented a house.

I needed to work and focus
on making some notes for a new book.

Why, am I a suspect? I'm confused.

Ah… occupational hazard.

I question people for a living.

Either way, one of you is lying,
I know that.

If you give me your alibi,
I can cross you off the list.

Hey, how about I text you a link with
the address of the house I was staying at?

You can check it out.

-Uh…
-[bleep]

You there?

Hello?

Ah, what a f*cking as*h*le.

[phone buzzes]

HANEULSORI VACATION HOME

[woman] Yes, that's the same person
in the photo you sent me.

I think he stayed for ten days?

Yeah, that's right.
He was there for all of ten days.

[typing]

Every day, I saw him
sitting in front of his laptop.

And his car stayed
in the parking lot the entire time.

There are plenty of sights to see,
but he never went out.

I think he was a writer.

I went ahead and checked the CCTV footage
just in case, and it was definitely him.

Je Moon-Jae.

[clattering and scraping]

[music fades]

[Noja sighs heavily]

Let's go. If the locals see us,
they'll get suspicious.

-[Moon-jae] You sleep?
-A little.

Getting old.
I can't sleep in the car anymore.

[Noja sighs]

Maybe I should talk to my editor again.

I could tell her everything.
Should I call her?

[Noja sighs heavily]

That's the same look my dad gave me.

Yeah? How'd he look at you?

Like I was pathetic.

But was he right? Were you pathetic?

I don't know. We never talked about it.

He looked at me like,
"I know everything, and you're an idiot."

He always looked at me that way,
since I was a kid.

He thought he had
everything all figured out.

It wasn't enough to save his life.

He was right. You are an idiot.

If we go see the editor again,
we're gonna get caught.

It's a terrible idea.

[sighs] I don't get it.
How could she believe that fraud?

Hey. You said he wrote that novel himself.
What if he's a better writer than you are?

You better come up with something quick.
Something only you could know

that this as*h*le would never figure out.

You need an alibi to save your a*s.

So much for the promotion.

So you gave it to Major Crimes?

-Hey, I do what I'm told.
-[scoffs]

We had a tip, a m*rder, identity fraud.

We've been busting our asses on this case
every day, just for them to take it.

Hey, Mr. Kim, just let them have it.

Maybe it's good not to get involved.
This was a really tough one.

-Am I right?
-Yeah, that's right.

Okay. Let this go.
I want you off the case.

Understood. I'm done.
I already gave them the files.

-Oh, yeah?
-Yes, really.

I'm not gonna tell you again.

Yeah, I already told you.
I'mma let this one go.

[Han-su] You better not
be bullshitting me!

[sighs]

[sighs]

[Sun-yong] It's only been a few days,
and you're already looking rough.

Spend a few years in prison,
and you might just wither away entirely.

Now, your real CEO, Park Seung-gyu.

He fled overseas by himself
before the exit ban came down.

Ah, man. The rats are jumping ship
and you're on your own now.

Soon, you'll have to answer
to the Major Crimes Unit.

And then you'll be really f*cked.

I have a question
about your little gambling ring.

Where do you store your cash?

'Cause we already checked
the register. It was empty.

Did you really think that
if you stashed some money away,

you'd only have to do
a few years in prison?

Maybe you're right.

I would've taken that deal.

Okay, where was I?

Let me ask you this, Mr. Myeong-su.
Kwak Sang-cheol.

You know him, right?

See, I was looking into
the g*ng that Noja was in.

This guy's name kept coming back up.

Apparently, he k*lled someone and then
he ran off to the Philippines to hide out.

Man, he's ugly, isn't he? Do you know him?

Take a look.

m*rder
KWAK SANG-CHEOL [43]

Wait. Hold on a second.

[quiet, tense music playing]

Say, why does this guy
look exactly like you?

-What the hell? Why do you look so alike?
-[scoffs]

Huh. He's your spitting image.

Aah!

That's right. Park Seung-gyu.

He runs an identity fraud ring.

Which means this as*h*le
could very well

have used his own operation
to turn one as*h*le into another.

[sighs heavily]

You m*therf*cker.

If the prosecution finds out
that you're Kwak Sang-cheol,

they'll have you rotting in prison
until you're 70.

But here's the thing, Sang-cheol.

No one else knows about this.

[Byeong-jun] g*dd*mn it.
The cops really cleaned us out this time.

There goes all our hard work,
down the f*cking drain.

Seung-gyu, I already sent
someone abroad with your ID.

You better get some new clothes.

That's true.

But the pigs didn't take this.

Cops like to brag.

If they had taken the money,
they would've told the press.

Yeah, trust me.

They're civil servants
desperate for a promotion.

[inhales] m*therf*cker.

[sighs heavily]

And I know who.

Myeong-su has all our cash.

And he was probably the one
who sent in that anonymous tip, as well.

Seung-gyu has a bunch
of different identities and passports.

He has fake IDs that pay taxes
and even get health checkups.

What Seung-gyu would do is,

he would find places
where the higher-ups could hide out.

And just to be sure,
he'd give them all fake IDs.

After that, he started to make
a business out of the identity fraud.

And he caught the higher-ups' attention.

He expanded to online gambling
and loan sharking.

That little f*ck's come a long way.

The guy who fled,
he wasn't really Seung-gyu.

He wouldn't leave
without first tying up loose ends.

-What are you saying?
-The anonymous tip.

-You're wrong. You weren't mentioned.
-Wrong. We're all tangled up in this.

If you dig into our past,
we're all implicated.

Seung-gyu has to k*ll
everyone connected to that tip.

The reason is that if Noja or I
ever open our mouths, he's screwed.

He has countless victims. People whose
identities he's stolen and tossed aside.

Is that why you tipped us off?
To screw everyone else?

So you could be the sole survivor?

The person who tipped you off
clearly knows more about this than I do.

[music fades]

And who's that?

[sighs] Got a cigarette?

Of course. Sure.

Before all this sh*t started,
everybody was doing just fine.

-["Lacrimosa" playing on piano]
-This is all his fault.

He's the one who tipped you off.

His fault? Who?

[sighs]

The guy who should've stayed dead.

He's the reason it's all gone to sh*t.

[piano version of "Lacrimosa" continues]

[echoing grunting]

[sighs]

[sighs heavily]

[music fades]

[Noja] Yeah.

So?

What?

Damn it. Just get me something
I can actually use, all right? sh*t.

Something solid.

[yawning] Who was that?

None of your business.

[Moon-jae sighs]

So where are we going? What's the plan?

We need to disappear, don't we?

Near my hometown.

Isn't it a little dangerous to go home?

I mean, when the police are after us?

Yeah, well, we're screwed
either way, aren't we?

And I miss it there.

What's in your hometown?

Evidence that I'm really Noja.

[melancholy music playing]

Hey, while we're hiding out there,

I want you to take some time
to reflect on the choices you've made.

When you're lying there,
in the middle of the night,

just think about what kind
of person you are, all right?

And that there's not a single person
you know who can prove who you really are.

Maybe you're nobody.

[sighs]

[sighs]

[The Rat] "The engine started. The car
sounded like the waves in the ocean."

[Ji-hye] "The sound of the ocean
in the middle of the city."

I really do envy your writing.

[melancholy music continues]

[Ji-hye] Oh, yeah.
When are you gonna finish the sequel?

Because we could really capitalize
on the success of this first volume.

-Why'd you stop by like this?
-[gasps]

Without calling first?

Oh. You were on the way.

And I was curious about
how the sequel was coming. [laughs]

Hey. You left in a hurry
after that call yesterday.

So I thought you were busy.

But it seems like you're free.

Come on, be honest.
Why are you really here?

It's not for the sequel, is it?

[tense music playing]

Uh, I really did want to see your writing.

[shakily] It's really good.
So, when will you finish it?

[laughs] Uh…

My writing.

[laughs]

You still suspect me, don't you? [tuts]

[laughs] I…

Well, there are always
surprises in life, aren't there?

I'd better be going.
I'll get out of your hair now.

ALPRAZOLAM

[The Rat] Hey, just hold on.

Right now, I'm, ah…

at a real crossroads.

And I'm not entirely sure
what I should do.

I need time to finish.

[inhales shakily]

[tapping]

[Myeong-su] The guy who should've stayed
dead is the reason it's all gone to sh*t.

NAME: SEO YU-MIN

[grunting]

[plaintive music playing]

[Yu-min sighs]

Let's help each other out.

[sighs] You don't wanna be
the front man either.

I've got a plan. Don't worry.

Wanna hear it?

[Myeong-su] That scumbag learned
some real bad sh*t

while he was being held by Seung-gyu.

He k*lled a homeless guy
just so he could steal his identity.

Hold on. What exactly did you do?

I turned him into a dead guy.

I know a guy at a public hospital morgue.

He had some gambling debts.

So, we cremated the homeless guy
under this punk's name.

Then he disappeared for a while.

And now he's decided to return

with a new face.

This scumbag

became this scumbag.

He calls himself The Rat.

He started talking all this bullshit.

He was saying things like,
"Jealousy makes monsters of us all."

-What do you think he meant by that?
-I have no f*cking clue.

Why should I give a sh*t?

All I wanted was to stop being the front
for this jerk-off so I can retire.

He told me to get in shape
because I was going to be arrested.

And when I got released,
I could cash out.

Can you tell the difference
between the two?

That depends on whether or not
we can come to an arrangement, I'd say.

INTERMENT: FEB 10, 2023
NAME: SEO YU-MIN

[plaintive, solemn music swells]

[sighs]

He's The Rat…

[music fades]

[sighs]

[crickets chirping]

[inhales]

[mysterious music playing]

-[sighs]
-[Min-gi] I did what you asked.

I looked into the picture you sent me.

The girl. The one with the ankle tattoo.

Turns out she died.

Now, I checked the CCTV footage.

The suspect is, uh…

It's him.

His father was a writer as well.

So I started digging
into the father's background.

I was shocked. I've got proof, Noja.

Hey, why'd you take so long
at the convenience store?

-[scoffs]
-[music stops]

Are we even allowed to be here?

-Are we trespassing?
-[Noja sighs]

This is

where a married monk I know used to live.

He has a temple in town.
He doesn't come here.

You really gonna sleep here?

Hey, don't you wanna get some shut-eye?

[Moon-jae sighs]

I don't know. I'm hungry.

[Noja tuts]

[sighs heavily]

Let me ask you something.

[Moon-jae] What?

Where were you early this month?

Are you serious? In my apartment.

I told you. I didn't leave my house
for three years.

Why?

But is there anyone else that could
prove that you really stayed inside?

[sighs] Well, there was.

He's dead now. Soo-hyun.

Oh, right.

-So there's no one now?
-[both sigh]

Why?

The girl with you and The Rat.

-With the ankle tat?
-Yeah?

She's dead.

[gasps]

You know how she died?

You k*lled her.

Huh?

Police got the CCTV footage from
the crime scene. You were right there.

[melancholy music playing]

That means

that… that The Rat k*lled her.

I didn't do it. I never left home.

You know what their files say?

There were a bunch of witnesses
who saw you

around the apartment
that you were supposedly hiding inside of.

How could a guy who never left
his apartment buy a beer from the store?

It wasn't me! He did all of that!

Noja, you don't believe me?

No.

[tense music playing]

[taps phone]

[sighs]

[groans softly]

JE GEUN-U
CRITICS AWARD WINNER

[Noja] Those are your parents, right?

Je Geun-u and Han Yeong-hui. [sighs]

Looks like the whole family
turned up for his award. But then…

What's this?

Is that you?

That's not you, is it?

Hey.

Who the hell are you, m*therf*cker?

Once I decided to give myself
to the Buddhist way,

I was taught that

the root of suffering
is attachment itself.

I can see that you've suffered.
So tell me.

What is it that has brought you here?

Noja.

Tell me where Noja is.

Who is Noja?

[tense music continues]

You went to the same school.

He paid for this place.

Sir, I fear

you have come all this way
for nothing.

I'm sorry, sir.

[Moon-jae] Is this photoshopped?

It's a screenshot, idiot.

The photo, it appeared in a literary
magazine. Those are your parents, right?

[Moon-jae] Yeah, but…

That issue was published
a year before you were born.

But look at the kid.

That's Moon-jae.
He's standing right there.

Huh. No way. My parents said
that they had me late

because they were struggling
to conceive a child.

So who is that?

That's Je Moon-jae.
It says it right there!

[tense music continues]

I'm gonna ask you again.

And this time, I want the truth.

Who the f*ck are you?

MANBULAM

[tense music continues]

FOUND HIM

So now you've decided to turn on me too,
is that it? Why?

Because none of this makes
any f*cking sense, all right?

Please believe me.

How the hell can I prove that I'm me?

You said,

when your parents died,
you had to handle the funeral

'cause you had no relatives, right?

Well! It looks like you have an uncle.

-Huh?
-Oh.

Or did you forget that too?

What are you talking about?

I don't have an uncle.

[sighs]

When people borrow money
and refuse to pay us,

we dig up everything on them.

All of their relatives,
their ex-girlfriends.

We're better than the police.

Get up, you m*therf*cker.

[sighs]

We're gonna go and meet
the uncle you never had.

And I'm telling you,
if he says you're not Je Moon-jae either,

I swear to God, you're gonna f*cking die.

[music fades]

[crickets chirping]

[door creaking]

If I'm not Je Moon-jae, then who am I?

Why the hell are you asking me that?

[poignant music playing]

[Moon-jae] Kidnapping. m*rder.

You think I'm no different
than this Rat, do you?

[sighs]

What happens if this uncle can't prove it?

I told you. I'll f*cking k*ll you.

[Moon-jae sighs]

No, that's not what I meant.

[grunts]

Let's say you do k*ll me.

I should at least have a name, right?

What's my name when I die?

When you die? You won't need one.

Names are for the living, not the dead.

[Moon-jae] If I have an uncle, whoever
set this up probably got to him too.

They probably know we're here.
Don't you get that?

How about you shut up
and get in the car, all right?

I want answers.

I wanna know you really are.

[tense electronic music plays]

[music fades]

He really shouldn't have k*lled that guy.

We may have to bury him alive.

I mean, fair is fair, after all.

[groaning]

-[sobbing]
-[Seung-gyu] We buried Dong-seok.

And I still can't forget
the look in his eyes.

[Dong-seok wailing]

[Byeong-jun] Hang on.
Why did he bury him?

[sighs]

Noja got jealous.

Because he was the capable one,

but Dong-seok got the praise.

That pissed Noja off.

Dong-seok got arrogant.

Jealousy.

It's a scary thing.

Hey.

Tell him not to k*ll Noja, okay?
Say I'll give him a bonus.

Yeah. Okay, got it.

Then I'm gonna bury him alive.

Just like Dong-seok.

[Moon-jae gasps]

-[Moon-jae whimpers]
-Here, come on. Son of a b*tch.

g*dd*mn it.

sh*t.

[panting]

Come on, come on.

f*ck you, m*therf*cker!

Aah! Aah!

-What the hell is going on here so late?
-[bleep]

Hello? Yes. I'd like to report
hearing g*nshots at Manbulam.

[Noja panting]

Son of a b*tch! Aah!

Are you f*cking kidding me?
You didn't know you were shot?

Just stay awake
till I get us to the hospital!

[Moon-jae sighs]

We can't go to the hospital.

If we get caught,

we'll take the fall for everything.

Yeah? f*ck you!
That's better than dying, as*h*le!

If I'm caught, everyone…

everyone will think I'm The Rat.

[breathing heavily]

[tires squeal]

-[sirens approaching]
-[Noja] Hey.

Ah, g*dd*mn it.

Hey. Hey.

[grunts]

I'll send someone to get you!

[Moon-jae groaning softly]

sh*t!

Son of a b*tch!

[gasping]

Hey, it's me. The kid's been shot.

On the road to Manbulam.
He needs a doctor.

Yeah, well, hurry over!

He's gonna die without you. You hear me?

[Moon-jae sighs]
