3-Iron (2004) - full transcript

The lonely and silent rider Tae-suk breaks in empty houses and lives a normal life while the owners are traveling. He does not steal anything and moves from house to house without any loss other than food, and he cleans the houses, provides small repairs or washes some clothes to pay for the hospitality. When he enters in the house of Sun-hwa, he does not see the woman that is wounded in her room after being beaten up on by her abusive husband Min-gyu Lee. Tae-suk helps the hurt woman and when Min-gyu returns, he hits the husband with golf balls and Sun-hwa leaves her husband with Tae-suk on his motorcycle. When they break in the house of an old man, they find that the man is dead and Tae-suk provides funeral service for him. However, his son returns and Tae-suk and Sun-hwa are arrested by two abusive police detectives. He is sent to prison and Sun-hwa is forced to return home. But she never forgets him.

Why are you ignoring me?
Do I look that foolish to you?

Am I your slave?



What do I need to do?

Think it's easy to live this well?

I told you not to wear this!

Why do you keep doing
the things I hate?

I'm sorry

I don't know why I act this way

I love you

Why? Why do you make
me feel so wretched?

Think I'll devour you?
Am I some insect?

Hello...

Dad!

Father!

Who are you people?

What are you doing
in my father's home?

Where's father?

- Father!
- Father!

- He's not here
- What?

You two.
Stay where you are

Come outside

Hello? This is the police, right?

Yes, I have a situation here.
Please come quickly

What did you do to the old man?

Sweetheart, you tell me

You killed him, right?

What's this?

I see you've broken into
many other homes

So you took pictures
as if it was your own home

Officer Lee, see if their owners
reported a burglary

Yes, sir

You two. What did you steal
from all these homes?

This punk needs to learn a lesson

Take the woman outside

Sorry to keep you waiting

He buried him secretly
near his apartment

What?

- Officer Lee!
- Yes, sir!

Take the CIS team
to his father's apartment

Open the lid

Father...

Father!

Doesn't look like
he was buried in secret

Father

Missing Person Report

This is you, isn't it?

Yes?

Yes, I understand

Illegal entry. Murder

Abandoning a dead body.
Kidnapping

If you have any others,
tell me now

What did you do to that woman?

What did you do to her
to keep her so silent?

Sir, he's clean

Also, I called some of the houses
he shot with the camera,

and they said nothing was stolen

Really?

- Bring her husband when he comes
- Yes, sir

You even have a college degree.
So why'd you break into their homes?

Sir, he's here

Tell him to come in

Lee Min-kyu, right?

Yes

She's all yours

Son of a bitch!

Stop it!

Let go!
I'm gonna kill that bastard!

Let's go

Sir!

The autopsy results
have come out

It's not murder, it's lung cancer

What? Lung cancer?

- Are they sure?
- Yes, I understand

He was delicately shrouded.
Apart from a real ceremony,

he buried his body
better than any son could

He doesn't seem
like a bad person to me

- Wait outside
- Yes, sir

Well, you're free from
the homicide charge

So how was she?

You liked forcing her, right?

What are you looking at?

Don't smile

Your favorite plant over there...

I knew you'd come back
so I took good care of it

It looks healthy, doesn't it?

I've thought things out
and I'd been too much

I'll be good from now on

Okay, I won't if
you don't want me to

I've changed, you see?

Oh yeah, while you were gone,
I sent plenty of money to your folks

If it's that hard to withstand,
then do what you like

Isn't he being too harsh?

Smile again

Let go, you bastard!

Son of a bitch!

Sit down!

Sit down!

Prisoner 2904!

Playing games with me, you punk?
You scared me!

Try that again

Today, you go hungry

Don't pretend you're sleeping

I've been thinking about us,
and I feel like a real dumb ass

Was I that bad to you?

Tell me!

I never wanted to ask this,
but I have to

What did he do to you?

Did he do this?

He did this, but you stayed still?

Like this?

Like this? Like this?

Prisoner 2904!

Prisoner 2904!

You son of a bitch!

Why do you keep hiding?

Wanna disappear
from the world altogether?

If you pull that again,
I'll kill you

Can I help you?

Excuse me!

- You're cleaning it again?
- Hi, honey

Who is she?

I don't know

Let her sleep

Where have you been?

I told you to call me
if you go out!

Where have you been?

You're behind me, aren't you?

The human eye sees
within the 180 degree angle

So you're hiding
in the other 180 degrees?

But that's impossible!

You bastard!

You need more practice.
And take care of the shadow

And you'll have to calculate
the human mind, idiot!

You crazy bastard.

Even if you cover all that
what are you gonna do?

Let's move out of here.
First thing tomorrow

You're waiting for him
to finish his sentence, aren't you?

I'm right, aren't I?

A moving service please.
Hello?

What's with you?

Fine, then

Let's wait together for him

I dare you to come,
you son of a bitch

Prisoner 2904! Your meal!

Prisoner 2904!

When I go in this time,
I'll kill you for sure!

You're behind me, aren't you?

Trying to escape?

Bastard...

You think you can play with me now,
don't you?

You fucking ghost

Come out!

We have a laundry machine.
Why go through the trouble?

Hello?

The police?

Yes, I understand

That bastard is out now

Son of a bitch,
I dare you to show up

Tell me

Tell me!

Why'd you turn off your phone?

- Know how many times I've called you?
- I told you!

I told you many times!

My battery ran out

Rotten bastard

Think I'm that stupid?

Who did you meet?

What the hell's wrong with you?
Are you mentally sick?

You made me this way

Who's the girl who always
calls late at night?

Let's stop this

Did you just hear something?

- What are you talking about?
- Hold on

I think someone's in the house

Who cares whether
someone's here or not

- I'm the idiot for trusting...
- No, I'm certain someone's in here

- Don't play the psycho act with me
- Hold on

Someone's here for sure

So who's here?

I swear someone's here

I don't wanna hear it!
I don't trust you at all!

You see?
I told you someone was here

Oh my goodness!
You scared me

I did? So how was your day?

Good

Why didn't you tidy up the sofa?

I did this morning

But why is it so messy?

That's strange

Can't sleep?

Want me to sing you a lullaby?

I miss you, too

Wanna come over?

Hey, it's weird

It feels like someone's in my place

Yeah

Then hurry up

So who's in your place?

I didn't see anyone.
I just felt it

That's impossible

Am I just being too sensitive?

- Isn't this your work?
- You haven't seen it yet?

- Can I look at it?
- Yup

- Stop it
- Come on

- I thought someone was here?
- Let him watch

- What's wrong?
- I think someone's watching

I'm scared

You see? What did I tell you?

What is it?

Why'd you hang up an empty frame?
It's creepy

I think someone's here

Could it be him?

He's bad luck,
that son of a bitch

Honey, stay still

What are you doing up?

I love you

What?

Honey...

Breakfast is ready!

What's made you so happy?
Stop smiling and eat

It's strange

It feels like someone's been here
since last night

What are you laughing for?

Are you that happy?

Don't open the door
to just anybody
