Save Me (2017–2019): Season 1, Episode 11 - Episode #1.11 - full transcript
THE SHIP OF SALVATION
SHALL MAKE YOU WHOLE
SAVE ME
You ready?
Let's go.
-Sang-mi!
-Don't let them fool you! They're demons!
How dare you covet
the Mighty New Sky's daughter!
Sang-mi!
Thank you.
In order to receive salvation,
they said they must give me
to the cult leader.
We don't have evidence yet.
Think they'll investigate properly?
Call this lady's father
and tell him to come.
I'll go back.
I'll try doing whatever I can.
What happened?
Why did she go back there?
The time has come
to pray with all our might.
Sang-mi expected things
to turn out like this.
I'm also going to try things my way now.
I need to see
what kind of place it is for myself.
Once the Spiritual Father
makes the announcement,
you'll be trained to be Spiritual Mother.
Then you have a wedding of the New Sky.
There's not a person with power in Mooji
that isn't associated with that place.
This is my son.
Your son
has such a pure soul.
Hello?
Your father wants to see you.
Come to the nursing home.
Thank you for coming all this way.
Sang-hwan's here.
This is my son.
Your son...
has such a pure soul.
Say hello. He is the pastor of Gooseonwon.
Father. This man...
is not a pastor.
He's the leader of a cult!
Hey, you!
How dare you talk like that!
I apologize for that.
My son is still very immature.
It's quite all right.
It's Sang-hwan, right?
I am simply a priest
trying to spread the word of salvation.
That friend you asked me about, too.
Father Baek here has offered
to take much better care of her.
From what he says, she's quite ill,
and has a wounded heart right now.
Your father also asked
the nearby welfare division for help,
so there's no need to worry.
Father. You did the same thing
three years ago.
I asked you to help my innocent friend
who was facing jail time
because he had no money
and no connections.
You turned your back on him
to become governor!
What is it this time?
Provincial governor?
Member of the National Assembly?
-Stop!
-When I was young,
didn't you tell me that it was the duty
of people with power, like you,
to help the weak and those in need?
He locked up a girl
who could be the age of your daughter,
and intends to do who-knows-what with her!
Han Sang-hwan! Who do you think
you are to say something like that?
Father, have you now...
sided with a cult leader?
Just how low
do you plan to stoop?
Why, you!
Pastor Baek, I'm so sorry.
My stupid son made a terrible mistake.
I apologize on his behalf.
It's quite all right.
Sang-hwan.
The Mighty New Sky does not turn his back
on the weak and those in need.
That is why
he entrusted Sang-mi to me.
So, please trust me,
and believe in the Mighty New Sky.
WE PRAY FOR YOUR RECOVERY
BAEK JEONG-GI
It turns out...
you're all the same.
It's okay, Brother Wan-deok.
Did you have something left to say?
I'm warning you.
Don't lay a finger on my friend.
If you do...
you'll be sorry.
Do you like Sang-mi, Sang-hwan?
What bullshit.
I'm just talking about the heart.
In the same way you can't hide
your feelings for Sang-mi,
the Mighty New Sky
also cannot hide his love for her.
So, please do not misunderstand us.
We shall treasure and take care of her
better than anyone.
You have to know that
Sang-mi doesn't share
the same feelings for you
or this Mighty New Sky.
Don't make judgments.
Come by and see for yourself.
People these days don't believe in
what they don't see for themselves, right?
-Watch your step.
-Thank you.
Welcome, all!
Blessings.
Come on up.
-We shall be blessed.
-We shall be blessed.
-Blessings.
-Please take one of these each.
Come by and see for yourself.
People these days don't believe in
what they don't see for themselves, right?
To my beloved Spiritual Father.
Hello.
Spiritual Father, my husband.
I'm Shim Hyo-seo,
a second grader in class three
at Mooji Elementary.
During the Words of Salvation,
you made me realize
that paradise is only there
for those who are joyous.
I'm filled with joy
when I see the Spiritual Father.
That's why this place is paradise for me.
Spiritual Father,
I'm living the life of faith well,
so I really want to become
your Spiritual Mother someday.
I want to ask
the Mighty New Sky to make me
into the Spiritual Mother.
Such a precious daughter of faith.
Yes.
However,
there is no daughter of faith
more precious than
our current Spiritual Mother-to-be.
Don't you agree, Spiritual Mother?
I will save them.
Pardon?
I will...
save all of them no matter what.
That's right, Sang-mi.
You becoming the Spiritual Mother
is a divine thing that will save
everyone here.
THE SHIP OF SALVATION
SHALL MAKE YOU WHOLE
Please rise.
You are
getting closer to
the Mighty New Sky.
We shall be blessed.
Our sister, Park Bong-hee,
has given a special offering
to the Mighty New Sky
for the Spiritual Mother today.
We shall be blessed.
Also, there are
only a few steps left now
until she becomes an apostle.
Please bless her with a round of applause.
I believe! We shall be blessed!
I believe!
GOOSEONWON MAIN BUILDING
PRIVATE PRAYER ROOMS
Today
we shall finally
rein in the Spiritual Mother.
Okay,
let's give a big round of applause
to Sang-mi,
who has been chosen
as the Spiritual Mother.
Like a white flower...
our dark
and dirty sins shall be
cleansed pure.
I believe!
My beloved brothers and sisters.
Now,
on the day
of the Mighty New Sky's revelation,
the Spiritual Mother and I
shall become one
in a wedding of the New Sky.
We shall be blessed.
Then all of your filthy sins
shall be cleansed.
Do you believe?
I believe!
We shall be blessed!
You can head down now.
Okay.
Don't.
You're the Seok Dong-chul who was
sent to juvie three years ago, right?
Who are you?
SPIRITUAL FATHER'S OFFICE
NEW MEMBERS FAMILY WELCOMING EVENT
Please, take a seat.
Ahead of the wedding of the New Sky,
there are some things I must request.
Including myself, apostles
and all Gooseonwon members
must not eat meat from now on.
We shall eat
only clean, raw white rice.
We must cleanse our blood
before welcoming the Spiritual Mother.
Do you all understand?
Yes, Spiritual Father.
Yes, Spiritual Father.
Once I receive
the Mighty New Sky's revelation,
I shall decide on a date and inform you.
So, please be
fully prepared.
Apostles Im and Kang, you must
make Sang-mi
as spiritually pure and clean as possible.
Yes, Spiritual Father.
We shall be blessed. I believe.
Okay. Then you may leave.
I've prepared something
I would like you to include
in your next sermon.
Since we're welcoming in
the Spiritual Mother,
I think it would be a good idea to talk
a little more about
the Spiritual Mother special offerings.
It's a special event,
yet the offerings are less than expected.
Here.
"In the wake of the Spiritual Mother,
we must rid ourselves of filthy objects
that blind us and weigh down our hearts,
so our souls are light and clean
when we ride the Ship of Salvation."
Well, that's the rough gist of it.
But you know
how to fix up sentences nicely.
Is that okay?
Then I'll be going, Spiritual Father.
He who hides the Mighty New Sky's glory
shall perish...
in fire on the day of judgment.
The Mighty New Sky,
who has allowed us to get ready
for the time of the New Sky
by riding the Ark of Salvation
in preparation for Judgment Day,
I believe in you.
Those who believe shall never die,
and believers who live shall never
taste death. I believe in that.
You are now...
the Mighty New Sky's body.
No one
will be able
to stand against you.
Sang-jin!
I've been waiting for you all day!
You need to return right after school.
Where have you been?
Ma'am.
You can't leave your mother here!
Mom.
How did you get in here?
Sang-mi.
It's too dangerous. You have to leave.
Sang-mi, don't do this.
Let's leave together, now.
No. I can't yet.
Let's go. Don't stay here.
We should go to the nursing home.
Okay.
Sang-mi.
Is that the Spiritual Mother?
I'm fine. Just get out of here.
It seems
Sister Kim came to listen
to the Spiritual Father's sermon.
Yes, Apostle Kang.
Please take care
of my Sang-jin and Sang-mi.
Of course, I shall.
You have nothing to worry about.
By the way,
has the fellow who usually drives
gone somewhere?
Oh, my, you're quick to catch on,
Dong-chul.
You said you buy and sell stocks.
Must be because you're smart.
It's not that. It's just
that he's a large guy and all.
He went to take care of business.
We have to find someone.
By the way, do you happen to have
any friends
who ride around together on scooters?
All kids around here
ride around on scooters.
Can I ask why you're searching for them?
Do you happen to have any friends
like that?
No, that's not it.
I was just curious.
They did something nice,
but left before I could get their number.
We really want to repay them
for their kindness.
Wow, they must've done
something really nice.
Yes.
I really hope we find them.
Here we are.
-See you tomorrow.
-Thank you.
Tomorrow we have a speaking seminar,
so you'll be able to ask
any questions you have.
Okay.
-Goodbye.
-Goodbye.
-Dong-chul.
-Yes?
Make sure you come tomorrow.
Sure.
See you tomorrow.
Drive safely.
Who are you?
I'm a journalist.
I'm collecting info, undercover.
I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU CAME HERE,
BUT YOU MUSTN'T COME BACK
Wow, he really is crazy.
And so are you.
How could you just sneak in there?
Yeah, you're crazy.
Guys.
It seems
that my father has joined hands
with that cult leader.
So, I wanted to confirm it for myself.
I wanted to go in there
and get some evidence, or anything.
I'm sorry.
Forget it.
Whatever your dad does to try and stop us,
you won't run away, right?
Jeong-hoon.
Upload the video I recorded
to your streaming channel.
I thought about it, and if my father
is now with the cult leader,
whether it be the police or media,
no one will believe us.
We have to show it to people directly
to get them to listen to us.
Yeah, okay.
There we go.
Also...
one of the female members
gave me this today.
What is it?
"I don't know why you came here,
but you mustn't come back."
What is this?
I'm not totally certain, but she said
she's an undercover journalist.
-A journalist?
-Yeah.
"But you mustn't come back."
Is this a warning or a threat?
I'll find out once I ask her myself.
Anyhow,
I don't think this is any ordinary cult.
That cult leader, too,
is much more frightening than we thought.
Watch your back, Dong-chul.
You watch your back.
That goes for you guys, too.
That curly-haired guy
is looking all over for you.
All right. Let's all be careful.
To begin with, I'll find out whether
that journalist is someone
who can help us.
Also, let's look into what these
people did before they came to Mooji.
I need to head out first.
Why? Let's have a drink.
There's somewhere I have to go.
See you tomorrow.
Who...
are you?
Sorry?
I saw everything. You stopped
that guy earlier from approaching me.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Future Spiritual Mother, I must get on
with what Apostle Kang has ordered.
Do you truly believe that being here
will grant you access
to the Ship of Salvation?
Do you really...
believe what the Spiritual Father spouts?
I really have no idea what you're...
You already know it, too!
That this place...
is all a lie.
Why are you playing dumb when you know?
Isn't pretending you don't know
when you do
the worst thing you can do?
Why do you think...
that I'm pretending to not know anything?
Because just like me,
you looked like
you were observing this place.
When you asked me that question
in the nursing home that time, I knew.
If you can't leave, then run away.
If you stay here,
your body and soul shall both die.
Then why haven't you left?
That question.
That was a question I asked so many times.
"Why haven't I left this place"?
I'd been here for over three years
and not a single person
had asked me that question.
You're right.
I don't believe in this place.
Do you really...
not believe in this place either?
No.
I am...
a journalist.
I couldn't find anything strange
about this place from the outside,
so one year ago, I disguised myself
as a believer and went undercover.
However, these people
don't leave any evidence.
Only recently have I...
begun to finally get deeper.
Then...
I'll help you from here on.
Sorry?
I'm going to bring this place down
no matter what.
So, I need
you to help me, too.
Are you sure about this?
I have some friends helping me.
And now
I have you.
Okay.
I'll do my best to help you.
Spiritual Mother!
Please deliver my prayers
to the Spiritual Father!
Please hear my prayer!
Sister So-rin! What are you doing
in front of the Future Spiritual Mother?
Sister So-rin, you can't cheat like this.
That's right. Future Spiritual Mother,
you must not listen to her prayers.
Right.
The Mighty New Sky
said not to ignore the prayer
of someone in pain.
If you two also have anything
you want to say, tell me.
I will deliver it to the Spiritual Father.
Spiritual Mother-to-be. I have a son.
That boy...
My Future Spiritual Mother.
-Me, too.
-Spiritual Mother.
Please save my son!
-Spiritual Mother.
-Oh, Spiritual Mother.
Dong-chul.
What?
Thanks.
And I'm sorry
for making you go
in that dangerous place...
by yourself.
Do you know...
what the thing I hate hearing
from you the most is?
"Sorry."
To be honest,
you've done nothing wrong.
Not you, not Sang-mi,
nor me.
This all happened because of adults.
I thought if my father became governor...
that my mom...
would be able to get better.
I was foolish.
Sang-hwan.
When I was expelled from school,
and you stopped the juvie bus,
do you remember what you said to me?
"Stand tall, fool."
What's that?
We should check it out.
Leave it.
Honey, please help me.
She'll just tear your hair out,
and ask you to save her son.
You're right.
Come on.
Honey...
Honey Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
This is your first time here, right,
Apostle Im?
Yes.
You're now becoming a core apostle.
It's a huge blessing.
We shall be blessed. I believe.
This is a place
where many evil souls are gathered.
I see.
Okay, let's go inside.
Okay.
How is it?
You can smell the putrid odor of Satan,
can't you?
Yes, I can.
-This way.
-Okay.
Save me.
Please save me!
He's a politician who tried
to lead our believers astray
under the devil's control.
A very wicked demon, indeed.
I'm sorry.
What are you sorry for?
I dared
to question
your abilities, Spiritual Father.
You are the Spiritual Father
who will save us!
Seducing people, tricking them,
and making them arrogant
is the crafty ruse
of the devil.
Filthy Satan!
Leave the body of my precious child
at once!
Look. His sins have been collected
in the form of congealed blood
in his stomach.
When I lay my hands on a sinner,
they feel a pain
proportional to the sins
they've committed.
Today, you shall
lay your hands on him, Apostle Im.
Me?
Going forward, you shall be given
the role of driving out demons
by laying your hands on those inflicted.
I thought that job was only for the most
spiritually exceptional apostles?
We don't have an apostle
as spiritually exceptional as you.
Sorry?
Apostle Im, you gave that
which is most precious to you
to the Mighty New Sky.
Isn't that right...
Apostle Kang?
Yes. He gave his most precious
daughter to him.
Apostle Im, please begin the prayer.
Yes.
Satan!
In the name of the Mighty New Sky!
Satan!
With all his power!
I command you
in the name of the Mighty New Sky!
Confess your sins and submit!
Return to the pits of hell
from where you came!
What?
Come and eat.
Our sister, Park Bong-hee,
has given a special offering to
the Mighty New Sky
for the Spiritual Mother.
Is that a friend?
I've fixed you some dinner.
Eat before you go to work.
Where are you going again?
Jin-chul's mom asked me
for help with something.
Have you borrowed money from someone?
Why are you working so much these days?
From who? I haven't borrowed any money.
If you need money,
don't borrow it from shady places.
Talk to me, okay?
Okay, fine.
Have fun.
THE BOOK OF SALVATION
Sang-jin.
Today, I...
finally became the apostle
in charge of banishing demons.
You probably don't know what that is.
It's a position
given only to the person in Gooseonwon
with the strongest faith.
It wasn't given to Apostle Kang...
but me.
I became the apostle of banishing demons.
And...
when Sang-mi soon becomes
the Spiritual Mother,
our whole family will have first-class
seats on the Ship of Salvation.
Hold on a little longer.
Do not obstruct Mooji's development!
Do not obstruct it!
Do not obstruct Mooji's development!
Do not obstruct it!
Deliver on the promise you keep delaying!
I'll request for Chief Kim
to send police officers.
It's fine. These ignorant people
haven't done anything wrong.
They've just been ordered to
by people above them.
You have Assemblyman Park above Mr. Cheon.
And above Assemblyman Park...
you have Baek Jeong-gi.
There's him, too.
Ji-hee.
I thought I was the president of Mooji.
But it seems like
someone else is becoming its president.
Deliver on your promise!
Bros, that golden-haired man
-is a cult leader.
-Hey.
Where's Dong-chul?
He's getting his disguise ready.
Oh, yeah?
Found anything?
We only found
articles praising them
about their nursing home,
and how they do lots of volunteer work.
So, on top of the police,
journalists are all on their side?
Is there anything in the world
that can't be done with money?
Hey,
not all police are the same.
Leave my dad out of it.
Yeah.
Yeah. I know your dad
isn't that kind of cop.
Right. He just does his job roughly.
That's...
You're right.
I agree.
Sup.
I'm off.
Hey, Dong-chul.
You know this already,
but they're devious people.
They may act like
what they're doing is legal,
but there will be crucial evidence
hidden inside.
You got in there with your guts, so now
let's up our chances
of winning with our heads.
Hello.
Welcome.
We love you.
Today, we're going to explain about
salvation and the secret to eternal life
in a little more detail.
This is a place spiritually separated
from the outside world
in which you all live in.
So, from now on when you enter this place,
you must hand over your cell phones.
You don't get in a bath
with your clothes on, do you?
You must remove all your clothes
to clean yourselves properly.
Take this.
-Why are you giving this to me?
-Sang-mi told me.
Apparently, the people there
aren't allowed phones.
They kept watching and imprisoned
Sang-mi like that,
it means they have things
under tight control.
Okay, in here.
Sang-mi says not to worry.
You'll see her soon.
Enjoy your meal.
Thank you.
A little closer, please.
Sorry? Oh, right.
Thank you.
Enjoy your meal.
You, too.
A REPORTER, HONG SO-RIN, WILL HELP US.
IF YOU NEED TO TELL ME SOMETHING,
SAY IT THROUGH HER.
I'M SCARED, BUT I'M STAYING STRONG.
THANK YOU ALL, FROM SANG-MI
The journalist's name
is Hong So-rin, apparently.
Found her!
-Where?
-It's her, right?
MOOJI DAILY, HONG SO-RIN
Is this person the one
who gave Dong-chul the note?
Why?
I mean, con artists usually steal
other peoples' identities.
Come on, no way.
Yes, way! It could really happen.
I'm going to go there.
-Where?
-The newspaper office?
The most certain way to find out
is to go there myself.
Want us to go?
No, I'll be fine.
I'll head there alone.
Okay, everyone.
Do you know what this is?
A boat, isn't it?
That's right. It's a boat.
But this isn't the ordinary type of boat
that you are all familiar with.
This is the Ship of Salvation
that shall guide us all
to the New Sky.
The Ship of Salvation, you say?
It's the symbol of Gooseonwon.
To put it in other words,
this is like our holy cross.
This is the symbol of salvation.
More important to us than the cross.
-Do you understand?
-Yes.
MOOJI DAILY
Can I help you?
Is Hong So-rin here?
Who might you be?
I'm her junior from university.
Oh, really?
She's been working away
from the office these days.
Where is she working?
Over at... You don't have her number?
Give her a call yourself.
We lost contact
after I went for my military service.
Then please leave
your contact details with us.
I'll pass them on to her
when she comes by.
Okay.
Please make sure she gets this.
Okay.
Thank you.
HONG SO-RIN
Do you think that your father
will win the election?
Is this the girl?
Yeah.
I just confirmed that
she works for Mooji Daily.
I think she's already talked
with Sang-mi and agreed to help us.
Are you in here, Dong-chul?
Yes. I'm using the toilet right now.
That so?
Must be because you're young
that you have frequent bowel movements.
-Feel refreshed?
-Yes.
Oh, you wanted to see me?
The service starts soon.
You'll miss the good word if you're late.
Right. Thank you.
You shall start training
to be the Spiritual Mother from today.
Our sister here shall assist you
as your right-hand helper from now on.
My name is Hong So-rin, Spiritual Mother.
THE BOOK OF SALVATION
From today, you must read
from the Book of Salvation
while praying for purification.
Praying for purification?
It's a ritual
to clean yourself of any dirt
left from the outside world.
Okay. Then shall we
read through the Book of Salvation?
Welcome.
Go.
This is Water of Life
blessed by the Spiritual Father.
Place your hands deep inside
and swirl the water.
Confess all of your sins
to the Mighty New Sky to cleanse yourself.
Swirl your hands in one circle
then say, "Please forgive my sin."
I doubted...
that the Mighty New Sky was my savior
and called him a lie.
Please forgive
my sin.
I...
hated my father...
for bringing us here.
Please forgive
my sin.
Good. Continue in that fashion.
I loathed Apostle Kang Eun-shil
who is here in front of me.
Please forgive my sin.
I called Apostle Jo Wan-tae a murderer.
Please forgive my sin.
I thought that everyone in this place
was insane.
Please forgive
my sin.
Sang-mi.
How's your training going?
How is Mom doing?
She looked unwell when I last saw her.
Apostle Kang is taking good care of her.
Apostle Kang is taking good care of her,
so you can relax.
She even went to the nursing home earlier.
Mom.
Is that you, Sang-jin?
Sang-jin.
Where are you going?
Play with me.
Don't you know that
you can never leave this place?
Sang-jin!
Sang-jin, please help me!
Sang-jin!
Mom!
Sang-jin!
You have to get out of there
so Sang-mi can live.
So, please...
save Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi!
No, Sang-mi.
Sang-jin!
Mom, snap out of it!
We have to get out of here!
Sister Kim.
Sang-mi!
That which you treasure the most,
I shall...
take it away.
Even after three years, you still...
have the downy hair of a baby.
Take it with plenty of water.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi, run away.
Run away,
Sang-mi.
SAVE ME
You're burning hot.
If you neglect the rage and sorrow
in your heart like this...
you will burn
not only yourself,
but everything around you.
So, now is the time to relinquish
everything to the Mighty New Sky.
What should I do?
What should I do
to relinquish everything inside of me?
SHALL MAKE YOU WHOLE
SAVE ME
You ready?
Let's go.
-Sang-mi!
-Don't let them fool you! They're demons!
How dare you covet
the Mighty New Sky's daughter!
Sang-mi!
Thank you.
In order to receive salvation,
they said they must give me
to the cult leader.
We don't have evidence yet.
Think they'll investigate properly?
Call this lady's father
and tell him to come.
I'll go back.
I'll try doing whatever I can.
What happened?
Why did she go back there?
The time has come
to pray with all our might.
Sang-mi expected things
to turn out like this.
I'm also going to try things my way now.
I need to see
what kind of place it is for myself.
Once the Spiritual Father
makes the announcement,
you'll be trained to be Spiritual Mother.
Then you have a wedding of the New Sky.
There's not a person with power in Mooji
that isn't associated with that place.
This is my son.
Your son
has such a pure soul.
Hello?
Your father wants to see you.
Come to the nursing home.
Thank you for coming all this way.
Sang-hwan's here.
This is my son.
Your son...
has such a pure soul.
Say hello. He is the pastor of Gooseonwon.
Father. This man...
is not a pastor.
He's the leader of a cult!
Hey, you!
How dare you talk like that!
I apologize for that.
My son is still very immature.
It's quite all right.
It's Sang-hwan, right?
I am simply a priest
trying to spread the word of salvation.
That friend you asked me about, too.
Father Baek here has offered
to take much better care of her.
From what he says, she's quite ill,
and has a wounded heart right now.
Your father also asked
the nearby welfare division for help,
so there's no need to worry.
Father. You did the same thing
three years ago.
I asked you to help my innocent friend
who was facing jail time
because he had no money
and no connections.
You turned your back on him
to become governor!
What is it this time?
Provincial governor?
Member of the National Assembly?
-Stop!
-When I was young,
didn't you tell me that it was the duty
of people with power, like you,
to help the weak and those in need?
He locked up a girl
who could be the age of your daughter,
and intends to do who-knows-what with her!
Han Sang-hwan! Who do you think
you are to say something like that?
Father, have you now...
sided with a cult leader?
Just how low
do you plan to stoop?
Why, you!
Pastor Baek, I'm so sorry.
My stupid son made a terrible mistake.
I apologize on his behalf.
It's quite all right.
Sang-hwan.
The Mighty New Sky does not turn his back
on the weak and those in need.
That is why
he entrusted Sang-mi to me.
So, please trust me,
and believe in the Mighty New Sky.
WE PRAY FOR YOUR RECOVERY
BAEK JEONG-GI
It turns out...
you're all the same.
It's okay, Brother Wan-deok.
Did you have something left to say?
I'm warning you.
Don't lay a finger on my friend.
If you do...
you'll be sorry.
Do you like Sang-mi, Sang-hwan?
What bullshit.
I'm just talking about the heart.
In the same way you can't hide
your feelings for Sang-mi,
the Mighty New Sky
also cannot hide his love for her.
So, please do not misunderstand us.
We shall treasure and take care of her
better than anyone.
You have to know that
Sang-mi doesn't share
the same feelings for you
or this Mighty New Sky.
Don't make judgments.
Come by and see for yourself.
People these days don't believe in
what they don't see for themselves, right?
-Watch your step.
-Thank you.
Welcome, all!
Blessings.
Come on up.
-We shall be blessed.
-We shall be blessed.
-Blessings.
-Please take one of these each.
Come by and see for yourself.
People these days don't believe in
what they don't see for themselves, right?
To my beloved Spiritual Father.
Hello.
Spiritual Father, my husband.
I'm Shim Hyo-seo,
a second grader in class three
at Mooji Elementary.
During the Words of Salvation,
you made me realize
that paradise is only there
for those who are joyous.
I'm filled with joy
when I see the Spiritual Father.
That's why this place is paradise for me.
Spiritual Father,
I'm living the life of faith well,
so I really want to become
your Spiritual Mother someday.
I want to ask
the Mighty New Sky to make me
into the Spiritual Mother.
Such a precious daughter of faith.
Yes.
However,
there is no daughter of faith
more precious than
our current Spiritual Mother-to-be.
Don't you agree, Spiritual Mother?
I will save them.
Pardon?
I will...
save all of them no matter what.
That's right, Sang-mi.
You becoming the Spiritual Mother
is a divine thing that will save
everyone here.
THE SHIP OF SALVATION
SHALL MAKE YOU WHOLE
Please rise.
You are
getting closer to
the Mighty New Sky.
We shall be blessed.
Our sister, Park Bong-hee,
has given a special offering
to the Mighty New Sky
for the Spiritual Mother today.
We shall be blessed.
Also, there are
only a few steps left now
until she becomes an apostle.
Please bless her with a round of applause.
I believe! We shall be blessed!
I believe!
GOOSEONWON MAIN BUILDING
PRIVATE PRAYER ROOMS
Today
we shall finally
rein in the Spiritual Mother.
Okay,
let's give a big round of applause
to Sang-mi,
who has been chosen
as the Spiritual Mother.
Like a white flower...
our dark
and dirty sins shall be
cleansed pure.
I believe!
My beloved brothers and sisters.
Now,
on the day
of the Mighty New Sky's revelation,
the Spiritual Mother and I
shall become one
in a wedding of the New Sky.
We shall be blessed.
Then all of your filthy sins
shall be cleansed.
Do you believe?
I believe!
We shall be blessed!
You can head down now.
Okay.
Don't.
You're the Seok Dong-chul who was
sent to juvie three years ago, right?
Who are you?
SPIRITUAL FATHER'S OFFICE
NEW MEMBERS FAMILY WELCOMING EVENT
Please, take a seat.
Ahead of the wedding of the New Sky,
there are some things I must request.
Including myself, apostles
and all Gooseonwon members
must not eat meat from now on.
We shall eat
only clean, raw white rice.
We must cleanse our blood
before welcoming the Spiritual Mother.
Do you all understand?
Yes, Spiritual Father.
Yes, Spiritual Father.
Once I receive
the Mighty New Sky's revelation,
I shall decide on a date and inform you.
So, please be
fully prepared.
Apostles Im and Kang, you must
make Sang-mi
as spiritually pure and clean as possible.
Yes, Spiritual Father.
We shall be blessed. I believe.
Okay. Then you may leave.
I've prepared something
I would like you to include
in your next sermon.
Since we're welcoming in
the Spiritual Mother,
I think it would be a good idea to talk
a little more about
the Spiritual Mother special offerings.
It's a special event,
yet the offerings are less than expected.
Here.
"In the wake of the Spiritual Mother,
we must rid ourselves of filthy objects
that blind us and weigh down our hearts,
so our souls are light and clean
when we ride the Ship of Salvation."
Well, that's the rough gist of it.
But you know
how to fix up sentences nicely.
Is that okay?
Then I'll be going, Spiritual Father.
He who hides the Mighty New Sky's glory
shall perish...
in fire on the day of judgment.
The Mighty New Sky,
who has allowed us to get ready
for the time of the New Sky
by riding the Ark of Salvation
in preparation for Judgment Day,
I believe in you.
Those who believe shall never die,
and believers who live shall never
taste death. I believe in that.
You are now...
the Mighty New Sky's body.
No one
will be able
to stand against you.
Sang-jin!
I've been waiting for you all day!
You need to return right after school.
Where have you been?
Ma'am.
You can't leave your mother here!
Mom.
How did you get in here?
Sang-mi.
It's too dangerous. You have to leave.
Sang-mi, don't do this.
Let's leave together, now.
No. I can't yet.
Let's go. Don't stay here.
We should go to the nursing home.
Okay.
Sang-mi.
Is that the Spiritual Mother?
I'm fine. Just get out of here.
It seems
Sister Kim came to listen
to the Spiritual Father's sermon.
Yes, Apostle Kang.
Please take care
of my Sang-jin and Sang-mi.
Of course, I shall.
You have nothing to worry about.
By the way,
has the fellow who usually drives
gone somewhere?
Oh, my, you're quick to catch on,
Dong-chul.
You said you buy and sell stocks.
Must be because you're smart.
It's not that. It's just
that he's a large guy and all.
He went to take care of business.
We have to find someone.
By the way, do you happen to have
any friends
who ride around together on scooters?
All kids around here
ride around on scooters.
Can I ask why you're searching for them?
Do you happen to have any friends
like that?
No, that's not it.
I was just curious.
They did something nice,
but left before I could get their number.
We really want to repay them
for their kindness.
Wow, they must've done
something really nice.
Yes.
I really hope we find them.
Here we are.
-See you tomorrow.
-Thank you.
Tomorrow we have a speaking seminar,
so you'll be able to ask
any questions you have.
Okay.
-Goodbye.
-Goodbye.
-Dong-chul.
-Yes?
Make sure you come tomorrow.
Sure.
See you tomorrow.
Drive safely.
Who are you?
I'm a journalist.
I'm collecting info, undercover.
I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU CAME HERE,
BUT YOU MUSTN'T COME BACK
Wow, he really is crazy.
And so are you.
How could you just sneak in there?
Yeah, you're crazy.
Guys.
It seems
that my father has joined hands
with that cult leader.
So, I wanted to confirm it for myself.
I wanted to go in there
and get some evidence, or anything.
I'm sorry.
Forget it.
Whatever your dad does to try and stop us,
you won't run away, right?
Jeong-hoon.
Upload the video I recorded
to your streaming channel.
I thought about it, and if my father
is now with the cult leader,
whether it be the police or media,
no one will believe us.
We have to show it to people directly
to get them to listen to us.
Yeah, okay.
There we go.
Also...
one of the female members
gave me this today.
What is it?
"I don't know why you came here,
but you mustn't come back."
What is this?
I'm not totally certain, but she said
she's an undercover journalist.
-A journalist?
-Yeah.
"But you mustn't come back."
Is this a warning or a threat?
I'll find out once I ask her myself.
Anyhow,
I don't think this is any ordinary cult.
That cult leader, too,
is much more frightening than we thought.
Watch your back, Dong-chul.
You watch your back.
That goes for you guys, too.
That curly-haired guy
is looking all over for you.
All right. Let's all be careful.
To begin with, I'll find out whether
that journalist is someone
who can help us.
Also, let's look into what these
people did before they came to Mooji.
I need to head out first.
Why? Let's have a drink.
There's somewhere I have to go.
See you tomorrow.
Who...
are you?
Sorry?
I saw everything. You stopped
that guy earlier from approaching me.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Future Spiritual Mother, I must get on
with what Apostle Kang has ordered.
Do you truly believe that being here
will grant you access
to the Ship of Salvation?
Do you really...
believe what the Spiritual Father spouts?
I really have no idea what you're...
You already know it, too!
That this place...
is all a lie.
Why are you playing dumb when you know?
Isn't pretending you don't know
when you do
the worst thing you can do?
Why do you think...
that I'm pretending to not know anything?
Because just like me,
you looked like
you were observing this place.
When you asked me that question
in the nursing home that time, I knew.
If you can't leave, then run away.
If you stay here,
your body and soul shall both die.
Then why haven't you left?
That question.
That was a question I asked so many times.
"Why haven't I left this place"?
I'd been here for over three years
and not a single person
had asked me that question.
You're right.
I don't believe in this place.
Do you really...
not believe in this place either?
No.
I am...
a journalist.
I couldn't find anything strange
about this place from the outside,
so one year ago, I disguised myself
as a believer and went undercover.
However, these people
don't leave any evidence.
Only recently have I...
begun to finally get deeper.
Then...
I'll help you from here on.
Sorry?
I'm going to bring this place down
no matter what.
So, I need
you to help me, too.
Are you sure about this?
I have some friends helping me.
And now
I have you.
Okay.
I'll do my best to help you.
Spiritual Mother!
Please deliver my prayers
to the Spiritual Father!
Please hear my prayer!
Sister So-rin! What are you doing
in front of the Future Spiritual Mother?
Sister So-rin, you can't cheat like this.
That's right. Future Spiritual Mother,
you must not listen to her prayers.
Right.
The Mighty New Sky
said not to ignore the prayer
of someone in pain.
If you two also have anything
you want to say, tell me.
I will deliver it to the Spiritual Father.
Spiritual Mother-to-be. I have a son.
That boy...
My Future Spiritual Mother.
-Me, too.
-Spiritual Mother.
Please save my son!
-Spiritual Mother.
-Oh, Spiritual Mother.
Dong-chul.
What?
Thanks.
And I'm sorry
for making you go
in that dangerous place...
by yourself.
Do you know...
what the thing I hate hearing
from you the most is?
"Sorry."
To be honest,
you've done nothing wrong.
Not you, not Sang-mi,
nor me.
This all happened because of adults.
I thought if my father became governor...
that my mom...
would be able to get better.
I was foolish.
Sang-hwan.
When I was expelled from school,
and you stopped the juvie bus,
do you remember what you said to me?
"Stand tall, fool."
What's that?
We should check it out.
Leave it.
Honey, please help me.
She'll just tear your hair out,
and ask you to save her son.
You're right.
Come on.
Honey...
Honey Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
This is your first time here, right,
Apostle Im?
Yes.
You're now becoming a core apostle.
It's a huge blessing.
We shall be blessed. I believe.
This is a place
where many evil souls are gathered.
I see.
Okay, let's go inside.
Okay.
How is it?
You can smell the putrid odor of Satan,
can't you?
Yes, I can.
-This way.
-Okay.
Save me.
Please save me!
He's a politician who tried
to lead our believers astray
under the devil's control.
A very wicked demon, indeed.
I'm sorry.
What are you sorry for?
I dared
to question
your abilities, Spiritual Father.
You are the Spiritual Father
who will save us!
Seducing people, tricking them,
and making them arrogant
is the crafty ruse
of the devil.
Filthy Satan!
Leave the body of my precious child
at once!
Look. His sins have been collected
in the form of congealed blood
in his stomach.
When I lay my hands on a sinner,
they feel a pain
proportional to the sins
they've committed.
Today, you shall
lay your hands on him, Apostle Im.
Me?
Going forward, you shall be given
the role of driving out demons
by laying your hands on those inflicted.
I thought that job was only for the most
spiritually exceptional apostles?
We don't have an apostle
as spiritually exceptional as you.
Sorry?
Apostle Im, you gave that
which is most precious to you
to the Mighty New Sky.
Isn't that right...
Apostle Kang?
Yes. He gave his most precious
daughter to him.
Apostle Im, please begin the prayer.
Yes.
Satan!
In the name of the Mighty New Sky!
Satan!
With all his power!
I command you
in the name of the Mighty New Sky!
Confess your sins and submit!
Return to the pits of hell
from where you came!
What?
Come and eat.
Our sister, Park Bong-hee,
has given a special offering to
the Mighty New Sky
for the Spiritual Mother.
Is that a friend?
I've fixed you some dinner.
Eat before you go to work.
Where are you going again?
Jin-chul's mom asked me
for help with something.
Have you borrowed money from someone?
Why are you working so much these days?
From who? I haven't borrowed any money.
If you need money,
don't borrow it from shady places.
Talk to me, okay?
Okay, fine.
Have fun.
THE BOOK OF SALVATION
Sang-jin.
Today, I...
finally became the apostle
in charge of banishing demons.
You probably don't know what that is.
It's a position
given only to the person in Gooseonwon
with the strongest faith.
It wasn't given to Apostle Kang...
but me.
I became the apostle of banishing demons.
And...
when Sang-mi soon becomes
the Spiritual Mother,
our whole family will have first-class
seats on the Ship of Salvation.
Hold on a little longer.
Do not obstruct Mooji's development!
Do not obstruct it!
Do not obstruct Mooji's development!
Do not obstruct it!
Deliver on the promise you keep delaying!
I'll request for Chief Kim
to send police officers.
It's fine. These ignorant people
haven't done anything wrong.
They've just been ordered to
by people above them.
You have Assemblyman Park above Mr. Cheon.
And above Assemblyman Park...
you have Baek Jeong-gi.
There's him, too.
Ji-hee.
I thought I was the president of Mooji.
But it seems like
someone else is becoming its president.
Deliver on your promise!
Bros, that golden-haired man
-is a cult leader.
-Hey.
Where's Dong-chul?
He's getting his disguise ready.
Oh, yeah?
Found anything?
We only found
articles praising them
about their nursing home,
and how they do lots of volunteer work.
So, on top of the police,
journalists are all on their side?
Is there anything in the world
that can't be done with money?
Hey,
not all police are the same.
Leave my dad out of it.
Yeah.
Yeah. I know your dad
isn't that kind of cop.
Right. He just does his job roughly.
That's...
You're right.
I agree.
Sup.
I'm off.
Hey, Dong-chul.
You know this already,
but they're devious people.
They may act like
what they're doing is legal,
but there will be crucial evidence
hidden inside.
You got in there with your guts, so now
let's up our chances
of winning with our heads.
Hello.
Welcome.
We love you.
Today, we're going to explain about
salvation and the secret to eternal life
in a little more detail.
This is a place spiritually separated
from the outside world
in which you all live in.
So, from now on when you enter this place,
you must hand over your cell phones.
You don't get in a bath
with your clothes on, do you?
You must remove all your clothes
to clean yourselves properly.
Take this.
-Why are you giving this to me?
-Sang-mi told me.
Apparently, the people there
aren't allowed phones.
They kept watching and imprisoned
Sang-mi like that,
it means they have things
under tight control.
Okay, in here.
Sang-mi says not to worry.
You'll see her soon.
Enjoy your meal.
Thank you.
A little closer, please.
Sorry? Oh, right.
Thank you.
Enjoy your meal.
You, too.
A REPORTER, HONG SO-RIN, WILL HELP US.
IF YOU NEED TO TELL ME SOMETHING,
SAY IT THROUGH HER.
I'M SCARED, BUT I'M STAYING STRONG.
THANK YOU ALL, FROM SANG-MI
The journalist's name
is Hong So-rin, apparently.
Found her!
-Where?
-It's her, right?
MOOJI DAILY, HONG SO-RIN
Is this person the one
who gave Dong-chul the note?
Why?
I mean, con artists usually steal
other peoples' identities.
Come on, no way.
Yes, way! It could really happen.
I'm going to go there.
-Where?
-The newspaper office?
The most certain way to find out
is to go there myself.
Want us to go?
No, I'll be fine.
I'll head there alone.
Okay, everyone.
Do you know what this is?
A boat, isn't it?
That's right. It's a boat.
But this isn't the ordinary type of boat
that you are all familiar with.
This is the Ship of Salvation
that shall guide us all
to the New Sky.
The Ship of Salvation, you say?
It's the symbol of Gooseonwon.
To put it in other words,
this is like our holy cross.
This is the symbol of salvation.
More important to us than the cross.
-Do you understand?
-Yes.
MOOJI DAILY
Can I help you?
Is Hong So-rin here?
Who might you be?
I'm her junior from university.
Oh, really?
She's been working away
from the office these days.
Where is she working?
Over at... You don't have her number?
Give her a call yourself.
We lost contact
after I went for my military service.
Then please leave
your contact details with us.
I'll pass them on to her
when she comes by.
Okay.
Please make sure she gets this.
Okay.
Thank you.
HONG SO-RIN
Do you think that your father
will win the election?
Is this the girl?
Yeah.
I just confirmed that
she works for Mooji Daily.
I think she's already talked
with Sang-mi and agreed to help us.
Are you in here, Dong-chul?
Yes. I'm using the toilet right now.
That so?
Must be because you're young
that you have frequent bowel movements.
-Feel refreshed?
-Yes.
Oh, you wanted to see me?
The service starts soon.
You'll miss the good word if you're late.
Right. Thank you.
You shall start training
to be the Spiritual Mother from today.
Our sister here shall assist you
as your right-hand helper from now on.
My name is Hong So-rin, Spiritual Mother.
THE BOOK OF SALVATION
From today, you must read
from the Book of Salvation
while praying for purification.
Praying for purification?
It's a ritual
to clean yourself of any dirt
left from the outside world.
Okay. Then shall we
read through the Book of Salvation?
Welcome.
Go.
This is Water of Life
blessed by the Spiritual Father.
Place your hands deep inside
and swirl the water.
Confess all of your sins
to the Mighty New Sky to cleanse yourself.
Swirl your hands in one circle
then say, "Please forgive my sin."
I doubted...
that the Mighty New Sky was my savior
and called him a lie.
Please forgive
my sin.
I...
hated my father...
for bringing us here.
Please forgive
my sin.
Good. Continue in that fashion.
I loathed Apostle Kang Eun-shil
who is here in front of me.
Please forgive my sin.
I called Apostle Jo Wan-tae a murderer.
Please forgive my sin.
I thought that everyone in this place
was insane.
Please forgive
my sin.
Sang-mi.
How's your training going?
How is Mom doing?
She looked unwell when I last saw her.
Apostle Kang is taking good care of her.
Apostle Kang is taking good care of her,
so you can relax.
She even went to the nursing home earlier.
Mom.
Is that you, Sang-jin?
Sang-jin.
Where are you going?
Play with me.
Don't you know that
you can never leave this place?
Sang-jin!
Sang-jin, please help me!
Sang-jin!
Mom!
Sang-jin!
You have to get out of there
so Sang-mi can live.
So, please...
save Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi!
No, Sang-mi.
Sang-jin!
Mom, snap out of it!
We have to get out of here!
Sister Kim.
Sang-mi!
That which you treasure the most,
I shall...
take it away.
Even after three years, you still...
have the downy hair of a baby.
Take it with plenty of water.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi.
Sang-mi, run away.
Run away,
Sang-mi.
SAVE ME
You're burning hot.
If you neglect the rage and sorrow
in your heart like this...
you will burn
not only yourself,
but everything around you.
So, now is the time to relinquish
everything to the Mighty New Sky.
What should I do?
What should I do
to relinquish everything inside of me?
