1
The notorious serial killer, Mask Girl,
has finally made an appearance.
Rumor has it she's addicted
to plastic surgery
and right now is being escorted
into the police station.
Kim, also known as Mask Girl,
was taken in by the prosecution
as a suspect this morning.
According to an insider,
Ms. Kim has admitted
to every single one of the charges,
including murder.
C'mon!
Excuse me, sir!
- Look over here!
- Over here!
- What's on the menu?
- What did she order?
It's beef bone soup.
What kind of beef bone soup?
MASK GIRL ORDERS BEEF BONE SOUP
Looks like she did her eyes,
nose, cheekbones, chin
everything, really.
She got herself
a whole remodeled face, basically.
The clothes worn by Mask Girl,
who's been in the spotlight
these past few days,
are the hottest-selling items right now.
Um, it's pretty, you know?
And it's popular too.
This crowd has gathered today
to protest against Mask Girl,
as the big trial against her
finally begins this morning.
The accused has been attacked
and persecuted since her childhood
because of her appearance.
The victim, Mr. Jun-mo Lee,
has attacked my client,
Ms. Mo-mi Kim, verbally,
by repeatedly insulting her looks,
and physically, by attempting to rape her.
Through what he wrote
on social media,
we can clearly see
the victim's exact motives
when he chose to meet with the defendant.
The victim's social media account,
is evidence that he was only interested
in meeting with Mask Girl
out of sexual curiosity.
Shut up!
Your client Your client killed my son!
Get off of me!
If being called ugly
is enough to make you kill someone,
then no one would be alive
in this country!
Please be quiet
or you will be asked to leave.
Let go of me!
- You dirty slut.
- Remove her.
- You motherfucker!
- Mom! Please, c'mon.
The crime in this case will be
constituted as a most serious crime.
The defendant's
heinous crimes against humanity
caused great shock to society.
From the standpoint
of fair punishment
or general crime prevention,
a sentence that forever isolates
the defendant from society is inevitable.
Thus, the defendant is sentenced
to life in prison.
MASK GIRL
MI-MO KIM
My name is Mi-mo Kim.
That name was given by my mom.
Please!
I'll come back for her soon!
I can't.
I won't raise your baby for you, Mo-mi.
I'm not asking you to raise her.
I'm just asking you
to look after her for a bit, that's all.
No. I can't.
Wait!
I'm going overseas.
I need to get a lot of stuff ready,
including a fake passport.
I can't do all of that
while carrying the baby around.
I'll come back for her as soon as I'm done
with everything. Please!
I'm begging you!
But the years went by,
and my mom never came back.
Soon enough,
I forgot about her existence.
When I was young,
I liked to doll myself up.
What are you doing? Oh jeez!
You like dressing up, like your mother.
Oh dear!
My grandma would always say
I was like my mom,
but she never actually
told me anything about her.
Put your elbows down.
And don't be so loud.
I didn't really like
the food my grandma made.
My favorite food
was the cup of tteokbokki
sold in front of my school.
Wow, this is incredible.
Then, one day, something happened,
and I finally learned
something about my mother.
- it's really good!
- Yeah, sure!
- Mom!
- Let's go.
- But I'm eating with Mi-mo!
- Don't play with her anymore.
- Why not? I want to!
- Her mom's Mask Girl.
- What's "Mask Girl"?
- You don't need to know.

Welcome, everyone!
There are so many of you here.

Everyone, I am Mask Girl!
What's the matter with you?
- I'm sorry, Grandma.
- Get out, now!
- Grandma! Grandma!
- Get out, now!
- Grandma!
- I can't do this.
- I'm sorry, Grandma.
- I don't think I can raise you anymore!
- Get out of here!
- Grandma, please!
I'm really sorry, Grandma.
Grandma!
Grandma
what kind of person
was my mother?
Why do you ask?
I guess I'm a bit curious.
She was
a lost cause from the very start.
The rumors about my mom spread quickly.
- Monster's daughter!
- Monster's daughter!
And the source of the rumors
was my best friend.
- You spread the rumors.
- Hm?
There have been a lot of complaints
from other parents, you know?
Doesn't matter.
We wanted to move anyway.
Tteokbokki Grandma,
I'm moving away.
I can't come here anymore.
But wherever I went,
the rumors followed.

The tteokbokki where I used to live
was really good.
You know, I
Hey, I have a secret, Mi-mo.
- Can I tell you?
- What is it?
I wanna murder my mother sometimes.
What? Why?
A couple of weeks ago,
I rescued a small kitten I found.
It was in really bad shape.
But Mom didn't want it!
I had to take it back, you know?
It's probably dead.
And well, I thought
It's like my mom
killed the cat, basically.
That's your problem?
Yeah, that's it. What do you mean?
Know what? Forget it.
Hey. Hey!
What's wrong? Where are you going?
Uh Hey, wait. Hey!
What's wrong? We're friends.
We can talk about stuff like that, right?
I don't need friends, remember?
I'm just gonna lay low until I graduate.
Why are you suddenly so angry?
You don't tell me anything about yourself.
You wanna know about me?
Mm-hmm.
Well, don't.
You wouldn't understand.
Hey. Hey!
I wouldn't understand?
You know what I hate dealing with, huh?
My dad coming home drunk
and beating my mom, okay?
I took a knife and almost stabbed my dad.
Did you know that?
You think you're
the only one with problems?
You think you're the only sad one
just because you hurt yourself!
Huh? It's raining.
Hey, run! Come on, run!
Argh!
Does your dad get drunk often?
Mm-hmm.
I wish my dad would just die, you know?
And my mom too.
She's not my real mom, actually. She's my
stepmom.
Well, you're better off.
What?
You
won't tell anyone about this, right?
- Uh, no.
- Hmm.
I don't know
I don't know who my dad is.
And my mom's in prison.
She's in prison?
My mom never called me. Not once.
She's never even wondered
about how I'm doing.
Then, who do you live with?
My grandma.
Your grandma never told you
anything about your mom?
She says she
hates talking about my mom.
It's probably my fault.
Well Well I think
you're really special, all right?
Could you be more cheesy?
Say, uh, "ah." Here.
You're home.
Why so late?
We're doing barbecue, remember?
Wash your hands.
I'm not hungry.
Hey, you asked for this, right?
I'm not hungry!
What? We bought a lot of meat.
Hey! Is something wrong?
No!
Dear God.
Don't know what's come over her.
MI-MO♥
She's going through puberty,
let her be. There, there, there.
I FREAKING HATE BEING HOME
MY DAD'S DRUNK AND VIOLENT AGAIN
REALLY? OH NO!
WHATEVER
I'M JUST HIDING IN MY ROOM RIGHT NOW
Here, I'll make a wrap for you.
BUT I'M GLAD I HAVE YOU
Be careful, it's hot! It's hot.
AND I'M GLAD I CAN TALK
ABOUT STUFF LIKE THIS WITH YOU
HAHA
ME TOO
Wow, the soulmates are here.
You're a cute couple.
Miss Bed-wetter, hello!
What?
- Let's go.
- That bitch.
She used to be an outcast. She peed
herself in class in elementary school.
Everyone saw it,
so they called her "Bed-wetter."
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
Then we got to middle school,
she shortened her skirt
and started wearing makeup.
And started following the bullies around.
Now she's not an outcast anymore.
She picks on you the most.
- I know. Ridiculous, right?
- Mm-hmm.
She's a hypocrite.
During the Joseon Dynasty,
Seowon was a private institution
and where ancestral rites
were held for virtuous Confucian scholars.
You two in the back.
Go out to the hallway.
Oh.
- It was used to foster talent
- I heard they're in love.
- Someone saw them making out.
- Aren't they super annoying?
- I heard about it.
- Really?
Yeah.
That's so crazy.
You're pretty damn ugly.
That's nonsense.
I'd say you're pretty damn ugly.
- I'm not. You're the pretty damn ugliest.
- Bullshit.
If I'm that, then you're the pretty damn
ugliest in the whole wide world.
By the way,
why did your mom go to prison anyway?
Why are you asking me that?
I'm just curious.
She killed someone.
What?!
What?
You think I'm a monster too.
No, I don't.
My dad went crazy again yesterday.
He broke everything, dishes and all.
Really?
My mom left the house crying.
Honestly, it's a real mess.
Should we run away?
- From home?
- Mm-hmm.
I like that.
We should, um, try to find a place
we could live together, right?
Don't we need a lot of money for that?
Do you have any?
I don't have money.
Well, so we can't afford
to run away.
But still, I think
it would be fun if we lived together.
Right?

You're not getting any allowance, then.
Where's the baby food?
Here.
- Say "ah."

Honey, come over and eat
if you're done dressing him up.
- Ah!

Yummy, huh?
Okay, let's eat!
Guess what?
I'm friends with Mask Girl's daughter.
Isn't that amazing?
I feel bad for Mi-mo, you know?
So I'm never going to leave

So, uh, what if
I bring it down to 30,000 won?
- Thank you!
- Have a good one.
Bye.
Are you sure it's okay to sell that?
It's fine. She'll be walking soon anyway.
So together we have 138,000 won.
This is nowhere near enough.
I don't have anything else to sell.
What do we do now?
Oh I could ask my tteokbokki grandma.
- "Tteokbokki grandma"?
- Mm-hmm.
Remember how I said there was an awesome
tteokbokki truck where I used to live?
She's like a real grandma to me.
She told me I should talk to her
if I needed anything.
We could ask her for help.
I kinda think
we could pull this off by ourselves.
Mi-mo, wait a little while.
I'll try to come up with something.
You won't. We'll do it together.
I'll try to find a way too.
Mm-hmm.
Hey.
Can I talk to you for a minute?
Why?
Wow. Are these real?
Hey! Of course they're real.
Do you like them?
So do you think you wanna get one?
They're 20,000 won,
but you're so cute,
I'll give it to you for half the price.
I don't have the money, though.
How much money do you have?
Five hundred won.
That's okay. I'll take it for now.
In return, tell your friends
about me, huh?
Sure!
- Oh my gosh, that's hilarious.
- What a freakin' joke.
- Kids still do this kinda stuff?
- That's so pathetic.
Hey, you. Is there a problem?
A middle schooler
taking money from a little kid?
You're small, so
Listen, you little fuck.
Don't take money
from little kids, understood?
Hey, take your 500 won and go home.
- Where do you think you're going?
- Hey, grab her!
- Don't even think about running.
- So sad.
That's what you get.
You ratted me out to them, didn't you?
Bed-wetter.
What did you say?
Aren't you scared of dying?
Let me go! If you keep this up,
you should be scared of dying.
Should I, bitch?
I'm gonna hit you
every time you lie to me, you got that?
Wait!
Mi-mo's mom, you know who she is?
"Mi-mo"? Mi-mo Kim?
What? Is her mom rich or something?
Hey, kid.
SUSEONG POLICE SUBSTATION
How may I help you?

Uh, ma'am, ma'am. You can't do this here.
Get outta my house!
- Right now, you hear me?
- Hey, hey!
Huh?!
I wasn't planning
on staying with you anyway.
What did you say?!
Hey, kid!
Hey! Where have you been?
Why are you home so late?
I was at a friend's house.
Well, you should've called us
at least, you know?
Ugh, leave me alone!
Have you seen the baby walker? Uh
Why are you asking me?
Just leave me alone!
- Hasn't seen it?
- She says she hasn't.
Jesus, where on earth did it go?
Hello?

- Me?
Mmm, not much. I'm home.
Can I come over to your place tonight?
My place?
My place, why?
You know
Don't wanna go home, that's all.
Oh
Is that a no?
Just for the night.
I, uh I really want you to, but
It's just my dad, uh,
he threw stuff again. It's a mess.
Really? Hey,
are you okay?
Yeah, it's just
my place is a complete mess.
I wanna run away from home.
Mi-mo, you should go back
to your grandma tonight, and
and we can leave when we're ready.
Okay.
Okay. I'll see you at school tomorrow.
Shit.
Hey, did you hear the news?
About Mi-mo Kim from Class Two?
"Mi-mo Kim"? Who's that?
Well, she transferred here recently,
and she's Mask Girl's daughter.
"Mask Girl"? Who's that?
Y'know, the PangTV psycho killer?
She was on TV and all.
Whoa, really?
Fuckin' unbelievable.
Y'know why she transferred to our school?
Why?
Apparently,
she stabbed a kid with a pencil.
- So
- What the hell? That's crazy!
That means we go to the same school
as a serial killer's daughter!
My mom's making a complaint
to the Office of Education
to try to get her to leave the school.
- Jeong-guk Kang.
- Here.
- Na-rae Kim.
- Here.
Mi-mo Kim.
Ye-chun. Is Mi-mo late?
I haven't seen her yet.

- Here.
- Ha-eun Kim.
- Here.
MI-MO, WHERE ARE YOU?
- Just a second.
- Mm-hmm.
Ye-chun.
Yes?
Can I have a word with you for a minute?
According to Mi-mo's grandmother,
Mi-mo hasn't come back home
since yesterday, unfortunately.
Do you know anything, by chance?
You're, uh,
Mi-mo's closest friend, isn't that right?
Yeah, that's true.
But I don't know where she is.

Oh, the underpass?
Okay, got it. Stay right there!
Hey! Mi-mo Kim!
Hey!
Do you know how worried I was?
Why did you turn your phone off?
Why are you looking at me
