A Record of Sweet Murderer (2014) - full transcript

Is this the right place?

We should be careful.

"Kumli 502"

Soyeon?

Don't move! Don't move!

Soyeon, use this. Open the door quickly!

If you don't, I'll kill you.

Open it!

Don't move. Don't move.

Get in.

Get in! You too! Get in!



Hurry.

Hurry up!

Key... Put the key here.

Here!

Get in.

Now!

Don't move.

Soyeon, you sit on the chair.

Sit.

Phone... Give me your phone.

You too.

I'll give it back when we're done.

Don't worry.

Cameraman.



No matter what happens, don't stop.
Keep recording.

If you stop, I'll kill you.

If you miss anything, I'll kill you too.

If that camera stops, you die!

Alright! I got it!

You're living here?

Yeah. It's been a while since I came here.

It's cold, isn't it?

Use this.

This is the hand warmer?

Yeah...

You've never used one before?

Here, let me.

You see...

If you shake it like this, it'll get warm soon.

Thanks.

You're a good person.

You're a good person too, right?

Can I take notes?

I brought some questions for you.

Okay.

Why... did you need a Japanese person?

I'll explain later.

Okay...

Then,

let's get this straight first.

Did you...

kill 18 people?

As reported in the media?

Yeah... well...

It's true I killed 18 people...

but there are actually more.

It's 25.

What happened?

I threw them into the Han River.

Maybe, their bodies didn't come up yet.

Why in the world would you Kill...

25 people?

Why? Well...

I happened to come across
this magazine and...

About a controversial factory closing.

The reporter wasn't intimidated by
powerful interests.

She wrote exactly what she saw
and felt.

After reading the article, I thought...

that this person might be able to
believe what I say.

But Soyeon,

I was really surprised to see who
wrote the report.

Camera.

Kim Soyeon.

Yeah...

Thanks... for seeing me in such
a nice way.

Soyeon, you know about
my childhood and...

You'll listen to me, right?

I'm here, aren't 1?

I read a lot of books and watched
a lot of movies in the hospital.

I'm not stupid. I'm not dumb.

Look!

Conversation... We're having a
normal conversation, right?

Yeah.

Listen to me.

I really don't want to kill anybody!

But I have no choice.

Why is that?

Well,

We were meant to reunite this way.

Soyeon.

What I have done...

is connected to you as well.

What are you talking about?

Look at this.

Sangjoon, Soyeon, ready?

Yeah, ready.

Do you remember this?

When we were kids...

I took this with Yoonjin's camcorder.

Come on! You should try too.

Stop filming me!

Green light, green light...

Red light!

Green light, green light...

Yoonjin!

Yoonjin!

It's sad but it's all in the past now.

It's not past for me!

l...I'm sorry.

Soyeon.

This video...

I never wanted to show anyone.

So...

I hid it in a secret place.

The playground we used to go to.

Remember our secret base?

I went there a few days ago and
it was still there.

I really liked her.

Sangjoon.

What does this have to do with
the things you did?

Look.

Soyeon.

Ever since I buried the tape...

I started hearing the voice from god.

After the incident...

what did you hear about me?

I heard from my parents that
you became unstable...

and had to go to the hospital.

I see. In what way?

What did they say?

I heard...

that you said there's something
you had to do for Yoonijin.

You kept crying that out.

But you never told anybody why.

Yeah, yeah... that's right!

I wasn't unstable! I was just
hearing god's voice!

Listen.

When I buried the tape, I heard the voice...

telling me that when I turn 27,

if I kill 27 people...

Yoonijin will come back.

And...

it's not just once or twice I heard that.

Hundreds and thousands of times
over and over again!

The more I missed Yoonjin,
the louder the voice became.

Soyeon.

I waited so long to turn 27.

And after finally turning 27,

I ran away from the hospital.

After breaking out, the messages
started getting more descriptive.

Who to kill, how to Kill...

I keep getting hints.

Sometimes...

he even tells me where I should hide.

See?

That's why I haven't been caught
and am here right now!

Sangjoon.

The voice of god you heard...

It's all in your head.

It's not!

Even after I entered the hospital...

I kept hearing the voice!

I kept hearing it.

Soyeon, I...

I was there for 17 years.

In the hospital, everyone was crazy,
except me!

Sangjoon.

Killing people won't bring Yoonjin back.

No, no. She's going to come back.

She's definitely coming back.

How on earth is that going to happen?

I... I don't know how.

Only god knows...

I don't know.

Sangjoon.

You already...

killed 25 people.

You said you need to kill 27.

Come to think of it...

You're with 2 people right now.

Soyeon, no, no. Don't get me wrong.

I'm not going to kill you.

Hey, yeah.

Have you seen the classic American movie,
"It's a Wonderful Life?"

How about you?

I don't know.

Okay.

They showed it at the hospital
on Christmas.

It was really touching.

It goes like this.

An angel...

teaches a broken man about
the value of life.

It's a great movie.
It touched me so deeply.

After I saw it, I decided...

to film a movie about
how I brought Yoonjin back to life.

Then everyone who sees the movie...

will understand what I had to do.

I'll show them the truth
through the movie.

And this is the movie.

I want you to record all the miracles
that will happen from now.

This will be a documentary that
vindicates everything I said and did.

You mean...

you're going to film your murder?

Soyeon.

Killing someone...

is really scary.

Can't do it alone anymore.

Let's say...

Yoonijin really does...

come back to life.

Do you seriously think it's right
to kill 27 people...

to save just one?

No, I don't.

But you see, Soyeon.

God told me...

that when everything's over,

everyone I killed will come back, too.

I must finish what I started.

So...

Those people I killed...

I have to bring them all back, don't I?

You really believe that?

Yes.

I do believe that.

Anyway, after leaving the facility...

God kept showing me miracles.

Then show them to me.

The miracles.

Yeah.

Right now.

Right here.

On camera, a true miracle
will happen.

Because Yoonjin...

and everyone I killed will
come back to life.

Then,

you'll believe me, Soyeon.

From now?

Yeah.

God told me...

that I need to gain the power of love
from the last 2 people.

Yes, the power of love.
That's what he told me.

After seeing this power of love...

I will kill them.

Soyeon, believe me!

Please.

But...

I jumped the gun and made
a terrible mistake.

Before god told me who to Kill,

I kidnapped a couple that seemed
to be in love.

It's just...

that I felt like god was telling
me to do so.

Kidnapping 2 people...

is not that easy, right?

What happened to them?

I hurt them...

to see if they love each other.

But they just tried to save themselves.

There was no love between them.

So... you killed them?

No, I didn't.

I'm just waiting for god
to tell me what to do.

Soyeon, come here.

Cameraman, you too.

Come, come here.

Come quick.

Over here.

These people were not the ones
I was looking for.

But...

thanks to them, I found
the right answer.

A magazine fell from the man's bag.

It opened to your article.

So I met these people to find this.

This gave me the information about
the last 2 people.

After finding this out, I called you.

It's just an article.

Then I'll make it easier to see.

Okay?

This way.

Come inside.

Wait, wait.

Soyeon, come here.

You, film this.

Hey! I said film!

Lo..ve... from... Ja..pan.

Love from Japan.

Man...

Young woman.

The Japanese woman loves the man.

A young couple.

19th... that's today.

15... 1500 hours.

40... 40 minutes.

32... 32 seconds.

3:40pm and 32 seconds.

Kumli 502...

Kumli Apartment Room 502.

Soyeon.

I was already in room 502 before
I even found this magazine.

Spots on the neck...

2 people.

Kill... them.

It's almost time.

You!

I needed you here for this, got it?

I need to know what they are
saying to check their love.

That's crazy. This is going too far.

It might seem that way.

Soyeon.

When my watch hits 3:40:32,

all we need to do is wait for a
Japanese couple to show up.

That's insane.

No. They will come.

I don't know why they would come
all the way here,

but they'll just come.

How can you believe something
you don't even understand?

Okay, then.

We can't explain every mystery
in outer space.

But they surely exist, right?

I'll know exactly what to do with
that couple very soon.

God talks to me all of a sudden.

When least expected.

That's my phone...

Yoonho.

Who's that?

Someone I know from the publisher.

Really?

Then pick it up. But on speaker phone.

God's message will be in this call.

You! Don't say a word.

And you two! Keep your mouths shut.

Or I'll kill you.

You too, got it?

Pick it up.

Hello.

Hi, it's been a while. It's Kim Yoonho.

I called...

What? Hello?

I can't hear you.

Ki..

the...

two..

peo...

...ple

Heard that? Kill the two people.

God's message.

That's crazy.

It's just a coincidence.

Then why look so astonished?

Listen to your heart.

No! This is just a coincidence.

This can't justify killing someone.

Yes, it can! You just don't understand.

Not with normal human comprehension.

But we ARE human beings, Sangjoon.

Yoonijin is dead.

It already happened and is in the past now.

No! It's not over for me.

At least for me.

Why?

Because I know how to bring her back.

She is already dead.

Sangjoon.

You're... sick right now.

Right?

Soyeon, go over there.

Now! Hurry up.

Now!

Put your hands behind your back.

Sangjoon.

Now.

Just do as I say!

Now!

You, get back. Get back!

Soyeon, put your hands behind your back.

Turn around. Hurry!

Hey! Shut up. Don't move.

Get back!

Don't move.

Soyeon, hands behind your back.

Now!

Sangjoon, don't do this.

It's just a small cut.

It's going to bleed only a little bit.
Don't worry.

Sorry.

No.

Sangjoon, please.

Quiet! Be quiet.

Sangjoon.

There's no time!

We have to get this done before
the Japanese couple comes.

No, Sangjoon, don't!

Soyeon, just let me be! Trust me.

Just trust me, please.

No, No.

Mr. Tashiro, stop him!

Now!

Stop him now!

Don't move.

No, Sangjoon.

No time.

No!

Sorry.

No! Please stop Sangjoon.

If I block the artery like this.

you can die in your sleep.

I know I am doing something
really cruel...

Sorry. I am really sorry.

No, please Sangjoon. Please stop.

Stop!

No.

I know, I know.

This is too much to just pass off
as a coincidence.

But it doesn't mean Yoonjin
will come back.

Please stop.

No!

God gave me an answer.

I believed in and followed him for 17 years.

I saw ants line up to make the number 27.

And on my 27th birthday, I saw...

27 pigeons dead in the garden.

No.

We don't have time.

You really have to...?

Go away! Get back!

Sorry, I'm sorry.

Murderer...

Murderer.

Murderer!

Sangjoon, please stop this
and just give yourself up.

Repent your sins.

In nature, there is no repentance.

I don't listen to the laws of man.

Okay, okay. I'm sorry.

Sangjoon, I'm sorry.

I know, you were alone and had to
go through everything by yourself.

I'll be here for you.

So please. Stop, Sangjoon.

Sangjoon...

What you just said really means a lot.

But Soyeon, this is different.

In a few minutes,
2 Japanese people will come.

When that happens, you stay here.

Cameraman.

You hide there until I give you a sign.

Then talk to them, got it?

What? What am I supposed to say?

I don't care, say anything.

They're here.

Soyeon.

Look closer and accept the reality.

Listen to your heart.

-
-

Camera, what are you saying?

He's trying to convince them to
listen to you.

He said he is going to watch.

What? All right, then.

Can you love, even after seeing
her go through this?

Can you love her?

What...?

Sangjoon. No! Sangjoon!

Sangjoon, please don't do this.
Please don't... please...

Tashiro!

Film this!

Okay.

What's so funny?

Ah... he is making fun of you.

Make fun.... make fun?

Sangjoon! Sangjoon!

Please think about it.

If a miracle happens like you say
and Yoonjin comes back.

And say she grows up.

But then some guy appears one day
claiming god's miracles.

And does the same thing to Yoonjin.

How would you feel?

Then, I'll just have to fight him off!

I'm seeing this through.

If you go any further,
I will honestly hate you for real.

Okay. If you have to hate me, so be it.

No...No.

Please...

No.

No...

No...

Tashiro!

You! You!

Sangjoon, you need to stop now.

Yeah, let's finish this.

Kill those two, and bring things
back to the way they were.

Those two didn't have what you
were looking for.

The spots...

I'll strangle them.

Then, they will be bruised and
will have the spots.

All I need to do is strangle them.

No, that's not right, Sangjoon.

- What?
- You're wrong.

According to what you said, these
two are supposed to show the power of love.

That's already been shown.

And, there are definitely spots...

on the two who have to die.

What are you saying?

You knew this would happen, right?

Since seeing that code in
your article, you knew...

who has to die.

And who has the spots.

That Japanese... Those two Japanese!
All I need to do is kill them.

What...?

Ever since Yoonjin's death, I had this.

It kept getting bigger and bigger.

And I just saw a moment ago...

I noticed that you have the same spot.

What?

You didn't know?

Spot... Spot?

Tashiro, come here. Take a look.

You see a spot?

You have the same spot.

Huh?

The last two people to die are, you and me.

You kill me, and...

then you kill yourself.

I'm fine if I have to die but...

I have to kill you, Soyeon?

You can't turn back now, can you?

What do I do?
