Glitch (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - Episode #1.2 - full transcript
According to a 1992 US poll,
about 2% of men and women
claimed to have had contact
with beings from other worlds.
MAY 2007
If we were to expand this study
to the global population,
the number of people that have
come into contact with aliens
over the past few decades
would exceed 100 million.
J. Allen Hynek classified
these types of contact...
MISSING PEOPLE:
FOUR TYPES OF CLOSE ENCOUNTERS
...into four "close encounters."
The fourth type occurs mainly
in the state of hypnagogia.
FANTASY OF SUBCONSCIOUS?
OR THE MESSIAH?
Hypnagogia is a kind
of lucid dreaming state...
FIRST SIGHTING IN KOREA
WAS BY US PILOT IN THE KOREAN WAR
...that is described
as being paralyzed by sleep.
IS IT ALIEN SPACECRAFT?

KIDNAPPING OF THE HILLS, 1961
In other words, if you fall
into hypnagogia, you can meet aliens.
MATH 1ST SEMESTER SAMPLE QUESTIONS
Anyone can achieve hypnagogia
through training.
TIME OF MEDITATION
In a state of lucid dreaming,
you will be able to meet
your unconscious mind.
After laying down,
focus on my words
and feel them in your mind.

- Whoo!

- And he's gonna take a first ball inside.
- Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!
And the Lioneers, they themselves
have been handed to their last 12 games,
as they fight for first place
in the Eastern Conference.
Boy, I tell ya, it's such a beautiful...
And right here in Seoul Stadium,
the Lioneers against the Unicorns,
again, the seven-game matchup
in the opening round of the playoffs.
THE ATTEMPTED SHOOTING DOWN
OF A UFO IN SEOUL
Hold on a minute.
Hey!
What's that article about?
- What?
- Missing?
Who went missing?
I have no idea. It's, like, weird stuff.
In Seoul, they spotted a UFO.
You know about that?
It's all stuff I've never heard about.
Do they exist for real? I mean UFOs.
I believe...
you'll really like it.
Dad, I told you I don't need
an air fryer. Okay?
We don't ever do any home cooking at all.
Siguk...
Siguk isn't capable
of cooking either.
Anyway, just don't buy one, Dad, okay?
Uh-huh.
Uh, uh...

What's everyone doing today?
If you're all free after work,
do you wanna meet?
Hmm.
Yeah? Hello?
Yes, hello!
I'm looking for Hong Jihyo. Is that you?
I'm Seo Hwajung
from Value Real Estate.
Sorry? Who? Where did you say you're from?
The real estate office.
Value Real Estate.
We rented him his apartment.
Why are you calling?
Well, Siguk hasn't paid his rent
for this month,
so I got a call from the landlord
about it.
But maybe he's very busy or something.
So I tried reaching out
to his emergency contact number.
- I haven't been able to get hold...
- Uh, what are you... Can you slow down?
Uh, I haven't been able to reach Siguk
for a few days now.
I'm not trying to rush him or anything,
but he usually pays right on time.
But he didn't this month.
Ahem. He isn't with you now, is he?
You mean that he's been unreachable
for days?
Your call has been forwarded

SEOUL GEOAN POLICE STATION
- Name?
- Lee Siguk.
- His age?
- Thirty years old.
And why do you believe he disappeared?
Um... you can't reach him?
I can't. I tried all week.
Uh... I did try calling his workplace,
but I was told
he hasn't shown up for a while.
And he hasn't been heard from by anyone.
He just vanished.
- Anything else?
- Good evening, sir.
Is there anything else?
Evidence? Or something?
Oh!
There. Look at this.
Strange, huh?
Lady, you... Would you...
This side, thank you.
- Oh.
- Oh!
The lady from the other day.
It's not that easy to trace an adult
that has gone off of the grid.
If you're not a family member,
you can't even begin to submit
a missing persons report.
Well, I'm practically engaged to Siguk.
You said you broke up.
Damn it. Stupid thing.
Is it broken?
Go... go right ahead.
What if...
Suppose that the guy is in trouble?
Shouldn't we move right away?
I...
I mean, I think he could be in trouble.
What kind of trouble?
You know, like... like kidnapped.
Tortured.
Buried. Murdered!
There has to be a way
that we can do something.
This isn't easy for me.
- Adults aren't subject to investigation.
- How the hell can that be a rule?
Ms. Hong, please don't get angry.
I'm not angry.
Jihyo.
It's a mystery
how other people's minds work.
I've seen my fair share of disappearances.
And you just can't imagine
how some folks just flip out,
go away and then show up again
all of a sudden.
Believe me, it's all too common.
You ended up on a roof,
and then walked into our station.
And you're a normal person.
Well, then.
You go home now.
I'll give you a call if I hear anything.
Don't get too worked up over it, okay?
Can I have a look?
I'm pretty good at repairing these things.
Oop.
This is the moment where
the ironclad skin of the sturgeon shines.
Above all, so that they can fully grow...
Their name is "Save the Copra."
A thing that threatens the sturgeons
living at the bottom of their habitat
is not other animals,
but humans losing nets...
...and then become tangled.
and die.

Oww!
Tell me, why did you tell Miju

Aren't I the first person

I was talking about things,

What happened? I mean,
why would he ever want to ditch you?
He must be crazy!

- Captain Price. Donghyuk is here.
- What's with the roll call?
We're the only ones here anyway.
I checked the audience list
and I saw a new name.
So I prepared something special.
They've already paid
but haven't shown up yet.
You know how the anonymous users say
we're too tight-knit.
You know how sensitive things are, right?
Let's make sure
not to call each other by our real names
just because it's an offline meeting.
You literally used my name just now..
Start using my nickname!
Yeah, I know.
It's Mission Swollen Lymph Node, right?
That's pure hate speech.
How is that hate speech?
Everything is hate speech to you!
Just how do you suppose someone suffering
from swollen lymph nodes
would react to that nickname?
Donghyuk, think a little deeper.
Yeah, right!
Dude, use your head.
CLOSED FOR TODAY
UFO FORUM REGULAR MEETING
Uh... Sorry to bother you,
but could... could I get a light?
Thank you.
Mmm.
Much obliged.
You from around here?
Huh?
Ah, just because I live here
and your face is new to me.
Uh...
Uh, no.
So, what brings you here?
Uh...
Uh, it's just a simple errand.
What errand?
Oh, over there?
CLOSED FOR TODAY
UFO FORUM REGULAR MEETING
Uh-huh.
So there are still people
who hold offline meetings these days.
Uh... I guess so.
This is my first real-life experience.
- So you're into it?
- What?
I mean, like...
aliens and UFOs and such?
Ah, no!
So why are you here?
Good question.
Uh...
Normally, I don't like stuff like this.
It's too... improbable.
Mmm...
Otaku style. you know?
It's not what I'm into.
I don't understand exactly
what it is that I'm doing here.
Uh...
So... thank you very much.
For the...
Could there be another higher
life form in the universe like mankind?
Mankind lives on a planet called Earth
in the middle of a vast universe.
According to world-renowned scientists,
the existence of higher alien life groups,
such as human civilization,
is natural, given the size and age
of the universe.
Furthermore, scientists believe
that if aliens exist,
there would be ancient,
pioneering civilizations
that existed before human civilizations.
Scientists also believe
they may have already visited Earth.
We have always been curious
about the possibility of aliens.
We have sifted through many cases
to find proof of their existence.
Meanwhile, the fact that
the US Central Intelligence Agency
was questioning the existence of aliens
was also revealed.
So...
Might the truth...
Petite Hongki?
- Yeah.
- I've never seen you.
- When did you register?
- Yesterday.
Hey! A newbie.
A newbie's here? To one of our forums?
Petite Hongki,
did our announcement bring you here?
Uh, yeah, kinda.
I know it's late,
but I want my nickname changed.
Don't post on the forum about the meeting.
Please use nicknames in offline meetings.
I'm Cho Phillip. Captain Price.
And Donghyuk. And...
Just drop the introductions.
Anyway, a big welcome to Petite!
Welcome, Petite. Welcome!
It's deep in the night.
So from this moment on,
I'm appointing one person to be Mafia.
All right. The Mafia has been determined.
It's morning now.
All participants, please raise your heads.
From now on, citizens can try to deduce
who the Mafia is through open discussion.
Good luck.
Hey, but don't you think playing the game
with four people is a little difficult?
Isn't the balance off?
There's only one Mafia.
Ohh! Captain Price
is suspicious right off the bat.
- What's that?
- You sound like a Mafia character.
- For real.
- Excuse me, but...
Do you think I'll sit here
and listen to this crap?
You sound so uptight.
- Forgive me interrupting...
- Are you mad?
Did I touch your sore spot?
Mmm. You look a little suspicious
for acting so desperate.
One question. I really must get going...
Hey, hey!
The Mafia was picked totally at random.
So don't you go misunderstanding.
Excluding these two here,
let's try to point out
who you think is the Mafia.
Her.
And the grounds for your decision?
She looks like
she'd be really good at lying!
Huh? You...
You think I...
I wonder. Your MBTI type?
- What?
- Oh, no, wait.
Let me have a guess. Uh...
INFJ.
Am I right?
Yes, that's it.
INFJs are so damned untrustworthy.
Or, to put it like this, uh...
Shitty little liars, yeah?
Do you hear what I'm sayin'?
You pretend to be a normal person
and to be considerate of others,
and on the inside,
you're judging everyone.
And always criticizing people.
I hate you guys!
Uh...
Say... I what?
And how about the shit you were saying
when we were outside earlier?
The shit about how we were otakus.
Oh...
I... I really didn't say such things...
And it looks to me
like you have a boyfriend too.
The poor little sucker.
I bet that soon, he'll get ditched.
What is it you're up to?
Oh, how I hate you.
Why's she like that
all of a sudden?
- Where are you going?
- What the hell?
What the hell's wrong with her?
What a bitch.
What the hell?
Oh! Oh shit!
Hold on! I need to ask you something!
Just wait up a minute!
Don't go!
So who was the Mafia?
Ah, no!
Hey, hey, hey, hey. Wait a second. Wait.
- Wh... what was that person's nickname?
- Who?
- That girl.
- Ah, that's Moonhole.
Are you telling me that's Moonhole?
We're going to play LoL.
Wanna come with us? A team of four?
That's if you could stand
the smell of dirty otakus.
Petite...
- Or whatever. See you later.
- No socializing outside the meeting.
MR. EOM
The meeting starts
in 15 minutes. You're on your way?
- You can't be late.
- I'm first.
Run!
Oh, yeah!
The green light is on.
You may now cross.
What?
Ah, damn it!
Oh!
Shit!
Ah, shit.
Ugh!
MR. EOM
Hello, Mr. Eom.
Uh... I, uh...
I'm having kind of an emergency right now.
I'm so sorry.
If I take a taxi now,
it'll take 20 minutes...
No, it'll take me ten minutes
to get there yes. I'm sorry.
- Did you see the message I left you?
- Damn it!
I'm telling you that
I posted a message on your site today!
I wouldn't know.
I haven't logged in lately.
Now move!
Sorry, I can't. Time's up for me,
so I'm just going to ask.
Ah! Ow! What the...
What is this?
How'd you get this?
Where did you get it?
You didn't draw this by yourself, did you?
Are you some kind of idiot?
- Uh, no...
- You were the one who drew it.
The Seoul UFO shoot down, in 1976.
Back Yoonsun, Korea's first alien contact.
You don't recall it? Remember me?
I'm gonna tell everything!
I will!
Amazing.
- So amazing!
- Yeah.
Now it's ours.
We mustn't tell anyone about it.
Yeah. And we'll use this place
for drinking alcohol, right?
We shouldn't use it like that.
We've found an observatory.
- Whatever.
- It's a place for observing stars.
And natural phenomena.
Great. Now it's perfect.
Hyundai win two to one,
- bringing an end to this nine-inning...
- So, did you draw it?
Yeah. Somewhat.
Let's see.
...for the Hyundai Unicorns!
Ohh!
So, what do you think?

This really sucks.

...professional baseball team,

And that lines up again
for the Hyundai Unicorns!
...winning two to one,
bringing an end to this nine-inning game.
- This came from your stupid brain.
- ...12-year professional baseball...
I put the helmet on this guy.
Don't you remember at all?
Oh!
The fuck, girl?
This piece of shit's broken,
and my insurance just ran out.
Bora?
You...
You're the...
You posted in that ch... ch...
chat room, am I right?
- Huh?
- I thought you were chasing me for before.
Now what do you want?
- Ah, shit.
- Bora?
Isn't she the friend you mentioned
the other day? The abandoned car girl?
Mm-hm.
She was like a friend, I guess.
I suppose she was a lousy friend.
She was... Well, she was how she was.
She was a delinquent.
She drank, too.
So after that,
I didn't hang out with her much.
It was the first time in a long time.
But why the Unicorns?
Unicorn Aliens.
Unicorns.
What?
The Unicorns.
All right.
It's not like there was nothing gained.
You figured out an essential element.
The damn Unicorns.
Anyway, you're pretty amazing
in a way, huh?
- The first person I've ever encountered...
- Unicorns!
...capable of comprehending their symbols.
Unicorns! Unicorns!
Poor girl. Who the fuck you speaking to?
Yes, Mr. Eom.
Yes, sir.
Yes. Yes.
- Ms. Hong.
- Yes...
Director.
It takes some nerve to keep
your client waiting for nearly an hour.
I will assume the liability for this
in any way possible.
Liability? And how?
The thing about liability is
that only those who have responsibility
can assume liability!
Are you in such a position now?
You are not!
Then who must assume it?
I do! I must assume it!
You know...
DIRECTOR KWON YOUNG-WOONG
I really liked the way you worked.
You never missed work, you're firm-handed
and don't act like today's kids.
I never thought you'd drag your private
affairs into your work station.
I hear you broke up
with your boyfriend not so long ago.
Where in the world
did he hear that from?
Hmm.
Banished to the doghouse?
It was definitely Oh Sehee.
It had to be her.
Can't be another person.
You don't know that.
It could have been your father.
Oh!
You know...
I mean, I wonder where that bastard went.
And why he doesn't call any more.
That bastard? Which bastard?
Who else but Siguk?
Oh. So...
- Didn't I tell you?
- Hey, now...
Did you forget to tell me something again?
Gah...
Oh!
Who are you?
- Did you come for the open house?
- What?
Ah, did you have an appointment with me?
- It's just that I'm a little busy.
- What's this about an open house?
Hey, where are you going?
- Where is everything?
- What do you mean?
Okay, where's the occupant
and all the stuff that was in here?
The tenant just packed up his things
and left.
- When?
- Uh...
Two days ago.
And did you actually see him in person?
No, but who are you? Why the questions?
KIM BYUNGJO
- Do you know the previous tenant?
- Is there a problem?
- Something wrong?
- No. Don't worry.
- Hello?
- Yes, Ms. Hong.
This is Officer Kim Byungjo.
We received Mr. Lee Siguk's
bank account details.
There's returns from the moving company,
a deposit from a used car shop.
The most recent transaction
was made at 4:20 a.m. to Sky Air.
That one's a payment for a flight.

I don't know the destination,
but based on the price,
I think he went somewhere overseas.
I would guess.
Hello? Hello, Ms. Hong? Are you listening?
Ms. Hong. Hello?
Ms. Hong, let's go for a smoke.
Ms. Oh. Ms. Hong, where is she?
Ah, she took vacation leave.
Wow. A vacation leave?
She must be really ill.
She's not ill, she's heartbroken.
- Heartbroken? What are you talking about?
- You didn't hear the news?
- No, what is it?
- It's about Jihyo's boyfriend.
What happened?
I've been giving you space
for years.
Where's my space in all this?
Hmm?
Oh.
Oh.
Huh?
Whoa.
Huh...

And you just can't imagine
how some folks just flip out,
go away and then show up again
all of a sudden.
Believe me, it's all too common.
You ended up on a roof,
and then walked into our station.
And you're a normal person.
Well, then.
You go home now.
I'll give you a call if I hear anything.
Don't get too worked up over it, okay?
Can I have a look?
I'm pretty good at repairing these things.
Oop.
This is the moment where
the ironclad skin of the sturgeon shines.
Above all, so that they can fully grow...
Their name is "Save the Copra."
A thing that threatens the sturgeons
living at the bottom of their habitat
is not other animals,
but humans losing nets...
...and then become tangled.
and die.

Jihyo!
I heard you and Siguk just broke up.
Uh...
Uh, um...
Oww!
Tell me, why did you tell Miju
and then not tell me at all?
Aren't I the first person
you should have told?
I was talking about things,
and the subject just came up...
What happened? I mean,
why would he ever want to ditch you?
He must be crazy!
I decided to go.
- That's...
- Ms. Oh!
Yes, I'm coming.
You owe me, okay?
Call.

I'm not sure.
Try it again now.
Hey, hey. Hey, hey. Oh...
Hoo-hoo!
Okay, it works. Great work, Donghyuk.
We can hear you just fine
even without that microphone, you know?
It's about time to start.
I'll call attendance.

OFFLINE MEETING
- Captain Price. Donghyuk is here.
- What's with the roll call?
We're the only ones here anyway.
I checked the audience list
and I saw a new name.
So I prepared something special.
They've already paid
but haven't shown up yet.
You know how the anonymous users say
we're too tight-knit.
You know how sensitive things are, right?
Let's make sure
not to call each other by our real names
just because it's an offline meeting.
You literally used my name just now..
Start using my nickname!
Yeah, I know.
It's Mission Swollen Lymph Node, right?
That's pure hate speech.
How is that hate speech?
Everything is hate speech to you!
Just how do you suppose someone suffering
from swollen lymph nodes
would react to that nickname?
Donghyuk, think a little deeper.
Yeah, right!
Dude, use your head.
CLOSED FOR TODAY
UFO FORUM REGULAR MEETING
Uh... Sorry to bother you,
but could... could I get a light?
Thank you.
Mmm.
Much obliged.
You from around here?
Huh?
Ah, just because I live here
and your face is new to me.
Uh...
Uh, no.
So, what brings you here?
Uh...
Uh, it's just a simple errand.
What errand?
Oh, over there?
CLOSED FOR TODAY
UFO FORUM REGULAR MEETING
Uh-huh.
So there are still people
who hold offline meetings these days.
Uh... I guess so.
This is my first real-life experience.
- So you're into it?
- What?
I mean, like...
aliens and UFOs and such?
Ah, no!
So why are you here?
Good question.
Uh...
Normally, I don't like stuff like this.
It's too... improbable.
Mmm...
Otaku style. you know?
It's not what I'm into.
I don't understand exactly
what it is that I'm doing here.
Uh...
So... thank you very much.
For the...
Could there be another higher
life form in the universe like mankind?
Mankind lives on a planet called Earth
in the middle of a vast universe.
According to world-renowned scientists,
the existence of higher alien life groups,
such as human civilization,
is natural, given the size and age
of the universe.
Furthermore, scientists believe
that if aliens exist,
there would be ancient,
pioneering civilizations
that existed before human civilizations.
Scientists also believe
they may have already visited Earth.
We have always been curious
about the possibility of aliens.
We have sifted through many cases
to find proof of their existence.
Meanwhile, the fact that
the US Central Intelligence Agency
was questioning the existence of aliens
was also revealed.
So...
Might the truth...
Petite Hongki?
- Yeah.
- I've never seen you.
- When did you register?
- Yesterday.
Hey! A newbie.
A newbie's here? To one of our forums?
Petite Hongki,
did our announcement bring you here?
Uh, yeah, kinda.
I know it's late,
but I want my nickname changed.
Don't post on the forum about the meeting.
Please use nicknames in offline meetings.
I'm Cho Phillip. Captain Price.
And Donghyuk. And...
Just drop the introductions.
Anyway, a big welcome to Petite!
Welcome, Petite. Welcome!
It's deep in the night.
So from this moment on,
I'm appointing one person to be Mafia.
All right. The Mafia has been determined.
It's morning now.
All participants, please raise your heads.
From now on, citizens can try to deduce
who the Mafia is through open discussion.
Good luck.
Hey, but don't you think playing the game
with four people is a little difficult?
Isn't the balance off?
There's only one Mafia.
Ohh! Captain Price
is suspicious right off the bat.
- What's that?
- You sound like a Mafia character.
- For real.
- Excuse me, but...
Do you think I'll sit here
and listen to this crap?
You sound so uptight.
- Forgive me interrupting...
- Are you mad?
Did I touch your sore spot?
Mmm. You look a little suspicious
for acting so desperate.
One question. I really must get going...
Hey, hey!
The Mafia was picked totally at random.
So don't you go misunderstanding.
Excluding these two here,
let's try to point out
who you think is the Mafia.
Her.
And the grounds for your decision?
She looks like
she'd be really good at lying!
Huh? You...
You think I...
I wonder. Your MBTI type?
- What?
- Oh, no, wait.
Let me have a guess. Uh...
INFJ.
Am I right?
Yes, that's it.
INFJs are so damned untrustworthy.
Or, to put it like this, uh...
Shitty little liars, yeah?
Do you hear what I'm sayin'?
You pretend to be a normal person
and to be considerate of others,
and on the inside,
you're judging everyone.
And always criticizing people.
I hate you guys!
Uh...
Say... I what?
And how about the shit you were saying
when we were outside earlier?
The shit about how we were otakus.
Oh...
I... I really didn't say such things...
And it looks to me
like you have a boyfriend too.
The poor little sucker.
I bet that soon, he'll get ditched.
What is it you're up to?
Oh, how I hate you.
Why's she like that
all of a sudden?
- Where are you going?
- What the hell?
What the hell's wrong with her?
What a bitch.
What the hell?
Oh! Oh shit!
Hold on! I need to ask you something!
Just wait up a minute!
Don't go!
So who was the Mafia?
Ah, no!
Hey, hey, hey, hey. Wait a second. Wait.
- Wh... what was that person's nickname?
- Who?
- That girl.
- Ah, that's Moonhole.
Are you telling me that's Moonhole?
We're going to play LoL.
Wanna come with us? A team of four?
That's if you could stand
the smell of dirty otakus.
Petite...
- Or whatever. See you later.
- No socializing outside the meeting.
MR. EOM
The meeting starts
in 15 minutes. You're on your way?
- You can't be late.
- I'm first.
Run!
Oh, yeah!
The green light is on.
You may now cross.
What?
Ah, damn it!
Oh!
Shit!
Ah, shit.
Ugh!
MR. EOM
Hello, Mr. Eom.
Uh... I, uh...
I'm having kind of an emergency right now.
I'm so sorry.
If I take a taxi now,
it'll take 20 minutes...
No, it'll take me ten minutes
to get there yes. I'm sorry.
- Did you see the message I left you?
- Damn it!
I'm telling you that
I posted a message on your site today!
I wouldn't know.
I haven't logged in lately.
Now move!
Sorry, I can't. Time's up for me,
so I'm just going to ask.
Ah! Ow! What the...
What is this?
How'd you get this?
Where did you get it?
You didn't draw this by yourself, did you?
Are you some kind of idiot?
- Uh, no...
- You were the one who drew it.
The Seoul UFO shoot down, in 1976.
Back Yoonsun, Korea's first alien contact.
You don't recall it? Remember me?
I'm gonna tell everything!
I will!
Amazing.
- So amazing!
- Yeah.
Now it's ours.
We mustn't tell anyone about it.
Yeah. And we'll use this place
for drinking alcohol, right?
We shouldn't use it like that.
We've found an observatory.
- Whatever.
- It's a place for observing stars.
And natural phenomena.
Great. Now it's perfect.
Hyundai win two to one,
- bringing an end to this nine-inning...
- So, did you draw it?
Yeah. Somewhat.
Let's see.
...for the Hyundai Unicorns!
Ohh!
So, what do you think?
'76 SEOUL UFO INCIDENT
GRAY REPRODUCTION
This really sucks.
I'm still looking.
...baseball team, the Hyundai Unicorns...
I know what. Hey.
Give me a green pen, okay?
Pen?
...professional baseball team,
the Hyundai Unicorns...
And that lines up again
for the Hyundai Unicorns!
...winning two to one,
bringing an end to this nine-inning game.
- This came from your stupid brain.
- ...12-year professional baseball...
I put the helmet on this guy.
Don't you remember at all?
Oh!
The fuck, girl?
This piece of shit's broken,
and my insurance just ran out.
Bora?
You...
You're the...
You posted in that ch... ch...
chat room, am I right?
- Huh?
- I thought you were chasing me for before.
Now what do you want?
- Ah, shit.
- Bora?
Isn't she the friend you mentioned
the other day? The abandoned car girl?
Mm-hm.
She was like a friend, I guess.
I suppose she was a lousy friend.
She was... Well, she was how she was.
She was a delinquent.
She drank, too.
So after that,
I didn't hang out with her much.
It was the first time in a long time.
But why the Unicorns?
Unicorn Aliens.
Unicorns.
What?
The Unicorns.
All right.
It's not like there was nothing gained.
You figured out an essential element.
The damn Unicorns.
Anyway, you're pretty amazing
in a way, huh?
- The first person I've ever encountered...
- Unicorns!
...capable of comprehending their symbols.
Unicorns! Unicorns!
Poor girl. Who the fuck you speaking to?
Yes, Mr. Eom.
Yes, sir.
Yes. Yes.
- Ms. Hong.
- Yes...
Director.
It takes some nerve to keep
your client waiting for nearly an hour.
I will assume the liability for this
in any way possible.
Liability? And how?
The thing about liability is
that only those who have responsibility
can assume liability!
Are you in such a position now?
You are not!
Then who must assume it?
I do! I must assume it!
You know...
DIRECTOR KWON YOUNG-WOONG
I really liked the way you worked.
You never missed work, you're firm-handed
and don't act like today's kids.
I never thought you'd drag your private
affairs into your work station.
I hear you broke up
with your boyfriend not so long ago.
Where in the world
did he hear that from?
Hmm.
Banished to the doghouse?
It was definitely Oh Sehee.
It had to be her.
Can't be another person.
You don't know that.
It could have been your father.
Oh!
You know...
I mean, I wonder where that bastard went.
And why he doesn't call any more.
That bastard? Which bastard?
Who else but Siguk?
Oh. So...
- Didn't I tell you?
- Hey, now...
Did you forget to tell me something again?
Gah...
Oh!
Who are you?
- Did you come for the open house?
- What?
Ah, did you have an appointment with me?
- It's just that I'm a little busy.
- What's this about an open house?
Hey, where are you going?
- Where is everything?
- What do you mean?
Okay, where's the occupant
and all the stuff that was in here?
The tenant just packed up his things
and left.
- When?
- Uh...
Two days ago.
And did you actually see him in person?
No, but who are you? Why the questions?
KIM BYUNGJO
- Do you know the previous tenant?
- Is there a problem?
- Something wrong?
- No. Don't worry.
- Hello?
- Yes, Ms. Hong.
This is Officer Kim Byungjo.
We received Mr. Lee Siguk's
bank account details.
There's returns from the moving company,
a deposit from a used car shop.
The most recent transaction
was made at 4:20 a.m. to Sky Air.
That one's a payment for a flight.
TRANSACTION
SKY AIR
I don't know the destination,
but based on the price,
I think he went somewhere overseas.
I would guess.
Hello? Hello, Ms. Hong? Are you listening?
Ms. Hong. Hello?
Ms. Hong, let's go for a smoke.
Ms. Oh. Ms. Hong, where is she?
Ah, she took vacation leave.
Wow. A vacation leave?
She must be really ill.
She's not ill, she's heartbroken.
- Heartbroken? What are you talking about?
- You didn't hear the news?
- No, what is it?
- It's about Jihyo's boyfriend.
What happened?
I've been giving you space
for years.
Where's my space in all this?
Hmm?
Oh.
Oh.
Huh?
Whoa.
Huh...
Huh...
What... What is all this?
Wait...
Wait. Help me!
