Sell Your Haunted House (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 12 - The Egg Ghost - full transcript

Are you asking me to protect you...

while you see Do Hak Sung?

After the exorcism ritual,

Do Hak Sung will try to kill me and In Bum.

In that case, you don't have to do it for him.

Think about what happened in the cold storage...

and how he tried to kill Ms. Ju Hwa Jeong.

Why would you do this anyway?

The unrested spirit haunting Do Hak Sung is...

In Bum's uncle who died 20 years ago.

I can't let him stay like this.



Fine.

It's not that I believe in spirits or exorcism.

I'm doing this because I cannot turn down someone...

who's asking for help as a detective.

Why are we on a stakeout here tonight?

Because I received a tipoff.

A tipoff?

On kidnapping? Burglary?

Let's wait and see.

You said you'll have it ready...

after I take a quick nap.

Then why did you kill me?

What?

Oh Sung Sik, you...



You! Give me my apartment!

- Mr. Chairman!
- Mr. Chairman!

Darn you!

In Bum!

Hey, call for backup.

Be careful!

Drop your weapons and step back.

Step back! The next one isn't a blank.

Ms. Hong, are you all right?

Ms. Hong. Ms. Hong!

It was him.

- It was Oh Sung Sik.
- Sorry?

It was Oh Sung Sik!

Darn it.

He has gone out of his mind.

Run him over. Just run him over, you idiot!

Those dimwits.

- Run both of them over.
- Yes, sir.

Just run them over!

Run them over now!

Run them over, you idiot! Where are you going?

- Please, no!
- You!

Please don't do this.

- Please stop...
- Stop talking.

- Sung Sik! Goodness.
- Who is this?

Please stop.

You should've left when we told you to get lost.

We're humans too!

So why are you so poor?

No one told you to live a shabby life like this.

That's enough.

I said that's enough!

Darn it.

Hey. Move aside.

Goodness.

Are you all right? Let me see you.

Goodness, look at you. Make a wise decision.

It's not like I'm asking you to kill someone.

There are a few empty houses here,

so just set those on fire.

This is a great chance for you...

to own an apartment unit you couldn't dream of buying.

Will you let your old mother and nephew...

roam about the streets without a home?

Yes, those eyes.

Sign me a memorandum.

- What?
- That you'll give me...

an apartment unit if I set those houses on fire.

Sign me a memorandum.

Okay.

Write that down.

That's a written statement claiming that you did it.

I should have a reason to believe you.

If you write that, I'll still give you the apartment.

Really?

Okay. I'll do it right now.

(The fire at Yongnam Village on November 15 was my doing.)

Thank you, sir.

Don't worry about a thing and rest up.

Dream about your new apartment.

I will. Thank you, sir.

Don't be.

That was the house...

for my mother and In Bum...

to live in.

The apartment unit.

The apartment.

Everything is over now.

Ji A.

- My uncle.
- We have an emergency patient.

- Please send an ambulance.
- He did set the place on fire,

- We are at...
- but didn't kill himself.

He was killed...

by Do Hak Sung.

My uncle was going to turn himself in,

but Do Hak Sung fooled him, killed him,

then covered it up as a suicide.

Stop talking.

An ambulance will be here soon.

Hang in there.

Are the injuries severe?

Thankfully, your bones aren't broken.

You'll be discharged soon.

Not me.

You.

Did I do that to your arm?

No.

I'm relieved.

I was scared...

I'd hurt you.

I'm sorry.

My selfishness put you...

in danger.

No.

My uncle finally found peace.

Thank you.

Did you absorb...

his memories?

Yes.

Did you see my mom?

Daebak Realty...

wasn't in his memories from 20 years ago.

And neither were you...

or your mom.

No.

That can't be.

Are you positive?

Like you said,

my mom wasn't in Oh Sung Sik's memories.

I thought I'd find a way to give her peace this time around.

Stop trying to dig into what happened that day.

Your mom passed away...

while trying to save a possessed child.

That's all.

That's what she did.

No.

Had that been the case, she wouldn't be around to this day.

Even you don't know what happened to her...

on the day she passed away.

I don't need to witness it to know what happened.

Then do you know why she's lingering around me?

I see my dead mom before I go to bed...

and as soon as I wake up.

You have no idea how that feels.

I know how painful it is...

to become an unrested spirit.

But at times, I love the fact...

that I can still see her.

But then again,

I hate myself for thinking that way.

Ms. Hong.

Ji A.

(Jungbu Police Station)

You little...

We were just beaten up.

We didn't land a single hit.

Listen to me.

This is unfair.

Hey, shut it!

- This is so unfair!
- Don't you see this bruise?

We didn't hit anyone.

You better answer me properly.

I know Do Hak Sung ordered you to harm Ms. Hong from the realty...

because she got in the way of the redevelopment.

Am I wrong?

That's not true.

You son of a gun!

Just let them go.

These scumbags...

won't spill anything.

- Look here.
- I'm telling you the truth.

- You're lying.
- This is the truth.

Where are you going?

I'm sorry, but the chairman doesn't want to meet with anyone.

This is urgent.

It won't be long.

Fine. I'll come back later.

(Chairman Do Hak Sung)

How does this make sense?

How could a guy I killed 20 years ago...

reappear?

I don't want to see anyone right now!

A detective has visited.

You must be busy.

You can go.

Yes, sir.

(Dohak Construction)

Who are you?

I'm Detective Kang Han Seok from Jungbu Police Station.

You seem to be busy, so I'll just cut to the chase.

Didn't you hire some men...

to harm Ms. Hong Ji A yesterday evening in Bangso-dong?

And you were there as well.

Hong Ji A? Who is that?

I wasn't even in that area yesterday.

I see.

But you see, I saw you there yesterday...

by coincidence.

Didn't you hire those men to threaten her...

since her realty was still at the redevelopment area?

Threaten her?

Why would I go through that hassle...

when the law will take care of it?

I don't know how businessmen do their job.

And you're known to clean out redevelopment areas...

even before the law takes action.

Yongnam Village from 20 years ago was burned down in flames,

so things worked out even easier for you.

You've already concluded that investigation.

Why are you bringing that up again?

I was right.

I should look into it again.

You were just discharged. Shouldn't you take a rest?

I'm okay.

Gosh, this is frustrating.

We know the truth, but there's nothing we can do.

We can't tell the police that your late uncle tipped us off.

But we have neither proof nor a witness.

We do have proof.

- What?
- Uncle had received...

a memorandum from him.

It even has Do Hak Sung's seal on it.

It's been 20 years already. Do you think it's still around?

I'm sure Do Hak Sung got rid of it already.

No, he hasn't found it yet.

That's why he rummaged our van and my grandma's house.

The memorandum?

That's it.

Why aren't you out delivering?

Gosh. I must've dozed off.

I should go now.

Are you headed to the police station?

No, my grandma's.

I should find the memorandum.

And I should tell her that my uncle...

That her youngest son...

didn't commit suicide.

Okay. Be safe.

Bye.

Grandma. It's me, In Bum.

Are you sleeping? I'm coming in.

Grandma!

Grandma. Grandma!

Wake up. Grandma.

Wake up, Grandma.

I need to tell you something.

How can you do this to me now of all time?

You're being too cruel!

Grandma.

Let's go home.

What are you talking about? I'll bring you a doctor.

I have my own house. I don't want to die in a hospital.

Grandma.

Grandma.

The police called me.

Uncle...

didn't commit suicide.

I knew it.

There's no way Sung Sik would do such a thing.

By the way, Uncle...

didn't die because of me.

That's what you told me. Mom,

Dad, and Uncle...

all died because of me.

Why did you say that?

Why did you lie to me?

Why did you blame everything on me?

How could you do that to your only family left?

How do you think I must have felt...

all my life?

It's delicious.

In Bum.

Once I pass,

as for everything I told you...

You're up, Mom.

Gosh, Mom.

You should have told me sooner if this needed some fixing.

What's the point of having a son?

It's all good.

What do you think?

Thank you.

(Daebak Realty)

(Name: Hong Ji A)

It would've been better...

if you agreed to sell from the beginning.

So...

is your exorcism ritual over now?

Good work.

That's for you.

An egg ghost is a type of evil spirit.

When there's an egg ghost,

people around the ghost are bound to die.

Some die in accidents.

Some die from illnesses.

Some commit suicide.

It's very difficult to get rid of, so it's an irritating spirit.

What's your point?

I realized just now...

that you are the living version of the egg ghost.

Wherever you go, people drop like flies.

These egg ghosts have a reason for turning into such spirits.

Without knowing why,

these people died in great pain...

and the collection of these spirits makes up an egg ghost.

So their resentment grew bigger.

But in your case,

it's your greed and selfish heart.

You killed innocent people who were powerless like it was nothing.

Just for money.

"Just for money?"

I didn't kill those people.

They died because they didn't have money.

Money can either save...

or kill people.

And the same money...

can kill you someday.

I'll look forward to that day.

(Daebak Realty)

That arrogant wench.

(Psychic, Special)

It's me.

(Psychic, Special)

It's me.

Could you do me a favor?

Is my grandma...

here?

No, I think she left in peace.

I'm so relieved. What a relief.

Hey.

You're all coming?

- Of course.
- We aren't strangers.

You said he didn't have any relatives.

It'd be tough to have no one around on a difficult day like this.

Thank you.

Goodness, let's hurry.

Thank you.

This way, please.

You must be devastated, but hang in there.

Thank you.

- I'm sure she's in a good place.
- Thank you.

- Eat up.
- Some more jeon, please.

Some more jeon? Is it good? All right, then.

Ma'am, we need more jeon.

People love these jeon.

We should sell these.

Here, have some more.

Eat up, sir.

- Goodness, we need soju.
- What?

- We're out of soju?
- Yes.

- What should we do?
- You'll find some out there.

Okay. Do we have more soup?

Yes, you can take this one.

Let me know if you need anything else.

This is too hot.

Thank you.

Where are you?

I have a feeling it's somewhere here.

Okay.

Gosh.

Hey, I was just...

You're asleep?

Why do you do this to me?

I'm going back now.

Finish up the best you can.

Okay.

Thank you for letting me...

send my uncle away.

Thanks to you, I think my grandma could...

pass away in peace.

She had a great-grandson.

Come to think about it, you're right.

What would she have done if I hadn't been a psychic?

That's the only family photo of our entire family.

She always cherished this photo...

whenever we made a move.

She always put it where she can always see it,

but somewhere out of reach.

(Memorandum Payment by an Apartment Unit)

(I, Do Hak Sung, will provide a unit in Golden Apartment...)

(in the event Oh Sung Sik sets Yongnam Village on fire...)

(November 7, 2001, signed by Do Hak Sung, Oh Sung Sik)

- He really had this.
- What are you going to do now?

This can prove Do Hak Sung's instigation of arson.

But it cannot be used as evidence of your uncle's murder.

I know.

But it's better than nothing.

I'll start thinking about what I can do...

with this.

What about you? What will you do now?

I'm not sure.

I don't know.

I really have no idea...

what I should do now.

Instigating arson and murder?

This is huge, isn't it?

He won't pick up.

The person you have reached is not available.

Call him one more time.

He won't pick up.

Where did he go? Why won't he show up?

- Who?
- What do you think? That thug.

I thought he went to the bathroom.

What? He's still taking a dump?

- The person you have reached...
- He won't pick up.

- It's gone.
- What is?

- The memorandum.
- What?

When was the last time you saw Kim Tae Jin?

I haven't seen him since breakfast. Why?

(Memorandum Payment by an Apartment Unit)

This is it.

Yes!

I hit my jackpot!

This is like the winning lottery ticket!

Gosh.

(Ghost Fraud)

You're here, sir.

Sang Hyo, pay up.

Yes, sir.

How much do I owe you?

Be gentle.

He drove a long way to get me here.

Oh In Bum.

If I didn't pick up, shouldn't you have noticed?

We're both in this business.

Why are you doing this? This is so not charming.

You're in front of Dohak Construction, aren't you?

How did you know? Can you see me?

Do you think you'll get what you want...

if you take that memorandum to Do Hak Sung?

He never lets anyone live if they ever find his weakness.

You of all people should know that.

Think carefully...

about whom you should join hands with...

to benefit yourself.

Aren't you going inside?

Chairman Do hates waiting.

I don't need to hand it over to him just yet.

What?

Let's go.

Boss.

He's going to kill you.

- No, he's not.
- Boss!

Do you think he already gave it to him?

I don't think so.

Do you think this will work?

Kim Tae Jin almost died in Do Hak Sung's hands.

I'm sure he has his doubts about him.

He'll think about it then call us.

Let's be patient.

I'm sorry. It's my fault.

It's not.

I encouraged you to trust him.

Darn it. I'm such an idiot.

Don't say that.

It's my fault for not keeping it safe.

Hello.

- Hello.
- Hey.

I just spoke with the doctor.

He said you're much better now.

You can leave tomorrow and visit just for treatment.

Really? That's great!

This place has been suffocating me.

Right. I need to bring some clothes.

This is totally not my style.

Ji A went to your house a while ago...

to pack some clothes.

She did?

She always nagged me for not cleaning up,

but her house is a pigpen too.

Where are her socks?

(Record of Exorcism)

(Record of Exorcism)

Why does she have this?

Explain.

Why was this at your house?

You said you didn't know.

I was looking for my grandma's record of exorcism,

and you said you didn't know where it went.

You acted like you had no idea.

Say something.

At least make up an excuse.

Why do you have this?

That was...

your mom's belonging that I had received...

from the police in your stead.

I was going to tell you one day but kept postponing it.

I'm sorry you had to find out this way.

What are you talking about?

If it was my mom's, why is there blood on it?

Whose blood is this?

Your mom's.

That's absurd.

She never bled that day.

Like you mentioned before,

the memory you have of that day is incorrect.

You fabricated that memory to protect yourself.

Don't you dare lie to me!

Ji A. Calm down.

How could you deceive me...

for the past 20 years?

I'll explain everything.

Not a single word.

I can no longer believe...

anything you say.

I'll find out the truth myself.

Ji A.

Don't come after me.

(Egg Ghost)

"Egg ghosts..."

"cannot be exorcized through the common method."

"But there is a way."

"Stabbing a spirit without writing down its name..."

"could cause physical damage."

"Stabbing a possessed psychic's heart..."

"is the only way to exorcize them."

"Stabbing a possessed psychic's heart..."

"is the only way to exorcize them."

"Exorcists..."

"can also be possessed."

(Exorcists can also be possessed.)

She knew she'd die but still carried on with it.

Until now,

I thought you died...

because I hesitated and ruined everything.

I thought I was to blame.

But I was wrong.

You carried out the exorcism, knowing you'd die.

Did you choose to abandon me?

Then why are you still here?

You couldn't help but worry about me?

Is that why you're here?

You should've just refused to help!

You should've chosen me.

Why care about the child?

Why care about others dying?

You should've stayed by my side.

You're my mom.

You're...

You're my mom!

I must know the truth.

I'm going to find out what happened that day...

with my very own eyes.

(Hong Mi Jin)

Pull yourself together, Ji A!

Get your mind straight,

and do it.

I can't do that, Mom.

You can.

(Hong Mi Jin)

(Hong Mi Jin)

Stop it.

I told you to stop it.

That's not what happened.

I made all of this up.

Or...

did you make this up?

Why?

What are you trying to hide?

Mom!

(Changhwa Restaurant)

Gosh. That jerk, Kim Tae Jin.

(Daebak Realty)

Ji A, calm down.

I can no longer believe anything you say.

I'll find out the truth myself.

Stop it.

No.

I'll keep doing it...

until I see what really happened that day.

(Daebak Realty)

(Daebak Realty)

(Daebak Realty)

Mom, what's wrong with his face?

I'll explain it later.

No matter what you hear,

do not come downstairs. Understood?

Hwa Jeong, listen carefully.

A child is possessed by an egg ghost is here.

But I cannot perform an exorcism ritual on an egg ghost.

Killing the person that's been possessed...

is the only way to dissipate the spirit.

What? Kill the child?

I don't see any way to save the child and get rid of the spirit.

I plan to turn myself in after I perform the exorcism.

Please take good care of my daughter while I'm gone.

Mi Jin. Hold on. Mi Jin.

In Bum, let's go.

I heard what you said on your phone.

Move.

If I don't perform the exorcism, more people will die.

To stop that disaster,

we must sacrifice the boy.

What are you talking about?

I don't care about that disaster. You cannot kill In Bum!

You will never understand.

Ms. Hong?

My mom...

My mom...

was killed.

Ms. Hong. Ms. Hong!

No.

Ms. Hong!

Wake up.

Hong Ji A!

(Sell Your Haunted House)

It was odd how she got into a fight with Ms. Ju as soon as she woke up.

Ms. Ju, you know the truth of that day, don't you?

Don't make it sound so easy.

Did I get possessed and kill Ms. Hong's mother?

How can I trust him?

She was bound to find out anyway.

Are you Chang Hwa? The son of Changhwa Restaurant?

What do you mean, you haven't found him yet?

That sly fox.

The only thing I can do is disappear from before her.

That's why she was still here.

I can see why she couldn't rest in peace.

It'll only be over once I disappear.

Right?
