Jirisan (2021) s01e06 Episode Script
Episode 6
[Jirisan]
[The show is an adapted fiction based on
stories of National Park Rangers.]
[All characters, events, regions,]
[organizations depicted in the show
are fictitious.]
Someone died because of a potato bomb.
I didn't know someone died, though.
Someone left it there
on purpose, to kill people.
[Who did that?]
Yi-gang.
[He's Yang-sun's cousin?]
-Where's Yang-sun?
-Yang-sun!
Yang-sun.
Se-wook told me.
[He might have put it there
trying to kill him.]
Or maybe he was aiming for someone else.
[Are you sure you saw my grandpa?]
[He led Yang-sun there on purpose.]
No.
[Someone noticed our plan.]
[It was one of the rangers.]
Lee Se-wook!
No, he's not home.
I lied.
[To kill you.]
Yang-sun!
But that wasn't the end.
[There was someone else.
The real criminal.]
Can you help me?
What can I do?
[Year 2018]
You can see Mount Jirisan at a glance.
Wait.
Is that Cheonwangbong Peak?
No way.
You can't see all of it at a glance.
Mount Jirisan includes way over
Cheonwangbong Peak.
Jirisan is indeed far and wide.
By the way,
where could Lee Se-wook have gone?
We've searched for two months,
but he's nowhere to be seen.
There's no trace of him
coming down, either.
-What about that thing?
-Sorry?
You don't see anything these days?
You haven't mentioned it in months.
I haven't seen anything after that.
That's good.
Yes, I guess so.
Our day-off starts in just a couple hours.
Any plans? It's the Christmas holiday.
Stupid Christmas. I hate it.
Let's go. Back to patrol.
[You didn't forget
our Christmas date, right?]
[Don't be late this time.]
Over here. On three!
One, two, three!
That's nice.
Over here, sir! One, two, three!
One, two, three!
It's snowing!
It really feels like Christmas.
Come help if you have time
to take pictures.
Should we take one in front of the tree?
We're fine. You two go ahead.
-See you later.
-Party poopers.
Let's just take a selfie, the two of us.
Smile!
That looks nice.
What are you doing this Christmas?
Nothing much.
If you don't have plans,
do you want to go here with me?
It's called Penguin Swimming Festival.
You get to swim in the winter sea.
First place wins a 5-day trip
to Southeast Asia.
Is he serious?
Thanks, but
There's still time to think.
Take a look and let me know.
The prizes are great this year.
Hey, I'm in trouble.
This jerk, Il-hae
He's asking me
to take his shelter shift for him.
Otherwise, I have to pay him back
what I owe right now.
Can you please take the shift?
I have plans today.
But today is the day for me!
I'm finally watching a movie
with Yang-sun.
I've been waiting for this day for years.
Please?
Why don't you ask Yi-gang?
She's already been called in. Remember?
Ten scallion pancakes and a wish.
And Yi-gang needs you by her side.
-Thanks!
-What?
You guys are amazing.
Seo Yi-gang, Kang Hyun-jo.
You guys are the needle and the thread
of Mount Jirisan.
-So fast!
-I appreciate it too.
Today's the anniversary
of my father's death.
Bye.
Oh, right.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
You're just as lame as I am.
Do you really want to work on Christmas?
-Don't you have plans?
-Let's just say I don't.
[Bidam Shelter]
But who's the needle and who's the thread?
Does that even matter?
This is the shelter. Maximum capacity 20.
That door leads to the office.
This is the office.
The shop closes at nine.
The equipment are in there.
And this is the lost and found.
That's the storage with a generator.
It gets fussy in the winter.
If that happens, you can refer to
the manual in the desk drawer to fix it.
-Shall we get started?
-Sorry?
Start what?
Oh, gosh!
-Are you okay?
-Goodness.
Really?
That's not going to get any dust out.
Step aside.
Like this.
Beat it like this.
Like this!
Do it like this!
Like this?
That's not it!
Like this! Try it!
Jeez.
What?
Look at you.
Can't you fold them neatly?
I am!
In case you forgot,
I used to be a soldier.
Once you're done,
go organize the equipment in the cabinet.
Demon Seo
I can hear you. Get going!
Yes, ma'am.
Bidam Shelter.
[It's me, Il-hae.
I forgot to tell you earlier.]
[Someone's supposed to come
pick up a lost article today.]
[There's a note in the log you can check.]
Okay.
The lost and found log
Why? What is it?
Someone is coming
to pick up a lost article.
-But where's the log?
-Oh, that.
Here.
[Lost and Found Logbook]
Wait.
This must be him. Right?
[Yim Cheol-gyeong]
Why? Is there a problem?
What?
No.
Gosh, it's snowing.
Did you check the weather?
There was a snowstorm warning for tonight.
It's a real White Christmas.
Up here on the mountain
is a different world.
It may be nice down there,
but snow is your worst enemy here.
Your vision gets blurry in snow,
and the chance of getting lost goes up.
If your socks get wet by accident,
having hypothermia is a matter of time.
In a nutshell,
it's killer weather.
But people down there
must be happy.
[The Salvation Army]
Help your neighbors.
[Christmas Kettle]
Thank you.
[I'll see you at 2 p.m.
outside the movie theater.]
[The Salvation Army]
"Heavy Snow Warning!
Road Partially Closed"
[Keep Out]
[Jungsan-ri Visitor Center]
[Your call cannot be completed]
[The Jeonnam Regional Police Agency]
[has arrested
Police Officer Lieutenant Yim]
[for receiving money and valuables
multiple times from a drug dealer.]
[Lieutenant Yim has allegedly received
a total of some hundred million won.]
[And in return has given away confidential
information on drug crime investigation.]
[The police have issued
a search warrant]
-Yim Cheol-gyeong?
-Yes.
Isn't that a funny name?
Yi-gang was all over that punk.
There she goes again.
We can tell you're drunk.
Yi-gang was like 14, I believe,
when she ran away to the mountain,
and came back after 3 days,
but with a broken arm this time.
I couldn't just let her be.
So I sent her to that training center
for out-of-control kids.
And that's where it happened.
[Year 1997]
[Oh, our great youth!
Let's fly, fly away.]
Welcome to Cheongwon Training Center.
During the three days of your stay,
you must comply with our rules.
First, bring your cell phones
and personal items to the front.
He's so impudent.
-He scares me.
-What are you doing?
-What are you doing?
-Give that back!
-I need to submit this too?
-Let's go home!
Let's go home.
-What are you doing?
-Mom.
How scary. He doesn't scare me.
I've made a bad decision.
When will this end? Can I leave now?
I miss my mom.
You'll be doing boot training
from here to Cheonwangbong Peak.
First place gets 50K won gift certificate.
Second place 30K won, third place 20K won.
And the last one will clean the toilet.
How about the winner-takes-all?
-Yes!
-Yes!
Hurry!
[Cheongwon Training Center]
I can't do this!
[Cheonwangbong Peak]
Take my hand.
No, thanks.
[Cheonwangbong Peak]
[1st place]
That was something.
There comes the last one.
-Why are they so late, though?
-Wasn't he in front of us?
Be careful.
-The other one got hurt or something?
-Yes, it seems he got hurt.
I'm just so worn out.
Great job, everyone.
Now you've made it to the top.
Why don't we scream out loud?
All right.
Everyone, scream and
get some burden out of your mind.
Hey, shout out something.
Maybe something to your parents.
I have no parents.
Yi-gang!
What
What are you doing here?
Well
-I'm waiting for the bus.
-What?
What are you saying?
Our house is right here!
Where are you going to run off to again?
Come with me!
Right now!
What was that?
That brat!
Hey!
There's nothing much on this.
But it must be something special
if he's coming on Christmas day.
Maybe it's a present from someone.
You've been awfully quiet.
What's wrong?
What?
No.
I'm totally fine.
Bidam Shelter.
[Main Station speaking. We have an SOS.]
[Sprained ankle
on the way to Bidam Shelter.]
-Location?
[-Next to the old tree by Sonbawi Rock.]
Is that the one
who said he's coming to the shelter today?
[I haven't checked that.]
[The signal must've been weak
because of the weather.]
[The call got cut off.]
We'll get going soon.
It will take about an hour.
-I'll come too.
-You stay here.
You're going up alone in this weather?
Someone must stay here.
Then let me go.
I know the mountain better than you.
If anything happens,
I can contact Jangteomok for back-up.
So stay here.
Yi-gang.
Radio me if anything happens.
I'll come right away.
How reliable. You're all grown up now.
I've been, for a while.
Just don't fall asleep and miss the radio.
Illegal hiking on such a day?
Check the license plate.
Sir! This vehicle is on the wanted list.
-What?
-A wanted car!
Bidam Shelter.
[I heard a weird noise
from the 11 o'clock direction.]
[Yi-gang, are you all right?]
I heard nothing.
[Main Station, night duty room. It might
be a snow avalanche. We'll check.]
[100m to Sonbawi Rock.
I'll radio again when I get there.]
My goodness!
-What are you doing?
-Open the door.
I have fried chicken.
Open the door.
Hurry
Hurry up.
Coming.
Hurry, hurry.
Gosh, it's hot.
What on earth?
You should know better
than to come here in this weather.
Gosh, it's so warm and nice.
Hey, I brought chicken for you guys.
That's not chicken.
That's a box of ice.
Stop being mean.
I didn't have anywhere to go.
I
got stood up.
I wanted to meet someone and feel better.
It's Christmas.
But there's no place for me but here.
My nose is runny.
I've surely caught a cold.
It's freezing here.
You'd better clean these.
[Yim Cheol-gyeong]
Wait, this is
What?
-What's wrong?
-It's Yi-gang's first love.
That's him, Yim Cheol-gyeong.
It's a unique name, so I remember.
Right, he's the same age as her.
You know how Yi-gang blabbers on
about her past when she's drunk.
Yim Cheol-gyeong, Yi-gang's first love.
Where did she say they met?
I think it was
at some teenager training center.
When Yi-gang ran away from home and
went to Seoul, she bumped into him again.
[Now that's destiny.]
[Year 2002]
["Hiddink's Ship Flies!
Green Light in the World Cup"]
We'll do great at World Cup!
And so will you!
Let's go, everyone!
Let's go!
Here, take one! Let's go, everyone!
We've got this!
Thank you.
Take one!
Take one!
You're Jirisan, right?
Or are you a soccer ball?
Did you run away again?
What?
Here.
The food's not great, but cheap.
Come by some time with your grandma.
Hey!
How much?
What?
The restaurant. How much do they pay you?
-Go, Korea!
-Go, Korea!
-Go, Korea!
-Go, Korea!
[Get back home right away!
Are you giving up on a college?]
I am studying!
[-You need to retake the entrance exam!]
-Oh, come on!
[I know you're not studying.]
Grandma, I'm busy. I'll call you back.
-Excuse me.
-Yes.
One more soju, please.
-One more soju?
-Can you get us this too?
-Thank you.
-No problem.
[On Lease]
[I can do it!]
[I'll conquer myself and my destiny!]
[Wake up! It's not time to sleep yet.]
Oh, gosh.
[2003 College Scholastic Ability Test]
-You've got this!
-You've got this!
[Good luck, students!]
-Good luck!
-You can do it!
-Good luck!
-Good luck!
[Break a leg!]
Yes! You've got this.
Good luck!
You can do it!
-Good luck!
-You'll do great!
Have you seen the beach?
Yes.
On TV.
How bad was it?
I think I got one or two right.
I want to ask you something.
Why did you slap me?
At the bus stop.
I was jealous of you.
What?
You had somewhere else to go.
But I was stuck there.
What do you want to be?
I don't know yet. You?
All I know is that the ocean isn't for me.
This little brat!
It's not even 10k won or 20k won.
But you stole 100k won?
-It wasn't me.
-Don't you lie to me.
How did you get the money
to buy a motorcycle then?
I knew I shouldn't have trusted you!
How dare you stab me in the back?
Stop it!
You're not even sure he did it.
You two are in this together, aren't you?
I took pity on you
because you don't have parents,
and this is how you repay me?
Get out of here! You're both fired!
We will.
But give us this month's paycheck!
Get lost!
Here's your money.
Here!
Take every last penny!
And don't ever come back!
Darn it.
Hey.
You didn't steal the money, did you?
Well, I
Hey!
Where are you going?
I don't know what I'll become,
but I won't live this humiliating life.
[Merry Christmas]
Joy to the world!
-Is this money?
-Hey, what's this?
It's money!
Hey, that's mine!
-We got lucky!
-That's mine!.
This is mine! What's wrong with you?
-I was picking them up for you.
-No, thanks!
-I was helping you.
-This is mine. Go away.
Let's go.
We're professors, we don't need this.
Gosh.
Ever since, Yi-gang's been having
cursed Christmas holidays.
But
I think I'll be like her from now on too.
-Bidam Shelter.
[-This is Haedong Police Substation.]
[We found a suspicious car
down the mountain.]
[A wanted man
is assumed to be on the mountain.]
Excuse me?
[It's near Bidam Shelter.
Have you seen a suspicious man?]
[He's a drug squad detective,
wanted for bribery.]
[His name's Yim Cheol-gyeong.]
[Yim Cheol-gyeong]
How
What part needs fixing?
Gosh.
Hey! Where are you going?
What on earth?
I must look for Yim Cheol-gyeong.
Are you crazy?
He's a wanted criminal.
And a drug squad detective.
-What if he has a gun?
-Exactly.
I heard a strange sound earlier
from the 11 o'clock direction.
It sounded like a gunshot.
-It must be near here.
-Then you really shouldn't.
There's no electricity, no radio.
What if something happens to you?
So hurry up and fix the generator.
-I'll go look by myself.
-Hey!
You said Yi-gang knows him.
All the more reason to find him.
Hello?
Anyone?
Over here!
Are you all right?
Are you from the shelter?
Yes, from Bidam Shelter.
Is this your first time hiking?
You're sure to sprain your ankle
if you wear new shoes
to the snowy mountain.
Plus, no crampons.
Cheol-gyeong
Has a man named Yim Cheol-gyeong
come to the shelter?
He must have gone to find a lost article.
He's in his mid-thirties, about 180cm.
Have you seen him?
No. He didn't come.
That's impossible.
He must have gone there.
Take me to the shelter. Please.
I'm a detective in the drug squad.
One of my seniors got wrongfully accused
for getting bribery from a drug cartel.
He said the evidence to prove
his innocence is in the shelter.
I must go get it.
Why is such an important object
in the shelter?
He said he has set up a spy in the cartel.
They've been meeting up on Mount Jirisan,
away from prying eyes.
and the informer once again,
left an evidence at the shelter.
Why am I doing this?
I should've learned when Il-hae fixed it.
What in the world?
We're from Gunsan Police Station,
Cheongmun audit.
Are you here for the wanted car?
The wanted man must be
-We're aware.
-The time
-Sorry?
-What about Bidam Shelter?
Can you reach them?
I sent the search for the wanted man,
but they are not answering their phone.
I called the main station,
but we can't radio them either as of now.
Call the National Park again.
We must go up to the mountain now.
Okay.
Why? Is it not working?
-Let's go to the shelter.
-Thank you.
It's not because of your coworker.
It takes more than two hours
to go down the mountain,
but only an hour to the shelter.
Stay the night there
and go down tomorrow when it clears up.
-Can you get up?
-Yes.
What was the thing Cheol-gyeong
was coming to get?
A blue rucksack.
[The sound came from 11 o'clock.]
[If he started climbing from where the car
was found, it must be near here.]
Excuse me, sir!
Wake up!
Don't fall asleep.
Just a bit further.
Hang in there.
Why did he leave the door open?
What if the generator freezes?
Wait here, please.
Gu-yeong!
Put that down.
I said put it down.
[Hello, this is the police.]
[Hello? Can you hear me?]
[700 Meters to Bidam Shelter]
Why didn't you pick up your phone?
We're on the mountain.
There was no signal.
The evidence? Did you find it?
I looked everywhere, but I didn't see it.
Cheol-gyeong didn't say what it was.
I heard it's a blue rucksack.
Are you sure?
I searched before,
but there was nothing special in it.
I'm sure. That's what she said.
This bag or anywhere else, there's
no proof that we've received bribery.
She said it was a blue rucksack for sure.
This jerk, Yim Cheol-gyeong lied.
There was no evidence to begin with.
Why on earth?
Stay still.
Are you okay?
Freeze!
Detective Yim was right.
The real criminal did show up.
But I didn't think there would be two.
Are you all right?
[Year 2006]
["The Host" has set a new record]
[just 38 days since its release.]
Grandma!
What?
No way!
My turn!
Take this.
You're taking all!
I thought you were dying sick.
You're taking everything.
Grandma!
You said you were dying sick.
You guys.
Grab her!
You!
[National Park]
What's wrong with you?
What are you doing,
lying to your granddaughter?
Shut it! You've run away
and haven't visited your
old grandma in years!
-Whatever! I'm going back to Seoul!
-Oh, no!
Leave me alone.
Hey!
You!
What a temper. Hey!
I said no.
Why are you doing this?
Why?
What will you do in Seoul?
I've watched you until now,
but what have you done there?
Did you go to college or get a job?
Gosh.
You know, I hate mountains!
What?
Just look.
They give bonus points
for local residents.
And no college degree is required.
Just work here.
Why are you doing this?
You're killing me.
You're all grown up now!
You've always crawled up to the mountains.
And now you're saying you hate them?
Go, go in!
Over here!
Hurry up and go in!
Hey! Come here!
[Job Interview]
-Why did you apply?
-No reason.
I don't want to work here.
I hate mountains.
Tell me. Why did you apply?
Are you still afraid of mountains?
Not bad.
It's better than
underestimating mountains.
There aren't many applicants
around your age.
-Give it a try.
-No, thanks.
Do you still think that
I made your parents die?
Then, why don't you
save people from now on?
I couldn't save them,
but you're different from me.
If you're scared that people die up there,
save their lives.
Before they die.
Well
It seemed like you don't have anything
important to do from your resume.
Show us what you've got here.
Whatever!
No drinking during hiking.
I've been climbing Mount Jirisan
for 50 years.
I can climb with my eyes closed.
If you keep doing this,
I'll tell your wife.
I'll return this to you when you go down.
You could've talked to him.
Stop calling me over.
People like him never listen to me.
You're so good at this, though.
I came to find a lost article.
[MP3 Player, Windbreaker, Planner]
Is this it?
Thanks.
[Bidam Shelter]
You're managing
the lost articles pretty tight.
Only the owner can take them, right?
Yes. You can't take anything
unless you know what it is.
Are you a cop now?
I'm just a low-rank constable for now.
That's the opposite of a humiliating life.
You got what you wanted.
You too.
You look better with mountains than seas.
By the way,
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
Well
I
You know, before
An SOS report! Cardiac arrest!
Will I see you if I come back here?
I'll visit often.
See you again.
Seriously
I thought he would die.
Are you okay?
Yes.
Liar. You're obviously not.
I can understand why you keep saying
you want to quit.
Let's both quit.
I don't think I can do this.
No
I won't quit.
I'm going to stay here with this mountain.
It'll hurt.
Ouch!
I can't help with it.
Someone slammed me down,
and I don't remember anything after that.
What happened?
Rest for a bit. I'll bring you some water.
So much blood.
Is this all my blood?
It's been a while.
Yes.
I'm sorry. I didn't think
it'd get this dangerous.
On top of the weather condition,
the plans got changed at the last minute
I didn't know you were still here.
I haven't seen you once here,
so I thought you quit.
Did you come here often after that?
Yes.
You should've called me.
Actually,
I need to make a confession.
What is it?
You were right.
The money
I stole that money.
Really? Why?
I wanted a motorcycle.
To take you to the beach.
A few months later, I returned the money
and apologized to the owner.
I was going to tell you
the last time we met,
but I couldn't.
I was too embarrassed.
I wanted to tell you
if we ran into each other here,
but I guess Mount Jirisan is big and wide.
It took this long.
I'm sorry I lied.
Aren't you embarrassed now?
I'm fine. Maybe because
I'm much older now.
I'll call you next time
when I come here for hiking.
My wife loves mountains too.
Bring proper shoes, clothes,
and gear next time.
Don't bug me by getting lost or something.
Okay.
It's cold out here.
We'll ask for your help
as witnesses later.
-Thank you for everything.
-Sure.
I'll call you.
Hey!
So that's Yim Cheol-gyeong?
Right?
Right?
Gosh, you.
I'm hurt.
Are you all right?
Yang-sun! What are you doing here?
Are you all right? I heard you got hurt.
Well, I'm not badly hurt or anything.
But
That can't be true
-Are you here because of me?
-Yes, I was worried.
You didn't even show up yesterday.
What? What do you mean I didn't show up?
I did.
Were you there?
[You wanted to meet outside the theater,
but you didn't come.]
[December 24th, 4:02 p.m]
[Jeong Gu-yeong]
[I was wondering what happened to you.]
I waited at the ticket box.
You said outside the theater.
Why didn't you call each other?
I didn't want to pressure her.
Me too. I thought
you've got something else.
So you came.
It was freezing yesterday. Are you okay?
Didn't you catch a cold?
I'm fine. What about your wound?
It's only a scratch.
Did you run?
Yes
They're so frustrating.
Let's leave them alone.
How pathetic is this?
Everyone else is enjoying Christmas.
But what are we doing here?
This is why I really hate Christmas.
Did you really like
Cheol-gyeong that much?
So much that you couldn't
leave the mountain?
What on earth are you talking about?
-I think it's true.
-It's not.
Then what?
Why do you keep saying you hate mountains
but stuck around here
for years as a ranger?
I don't know why I'm doing this.
Gosh, my life.
That's sweet potato makgeolli.
You want to know why
I became a ranger?
I was six
when I first climbed the mountain.
This way.
-All right.
-Put her down here.
Oh, dear.
-What's happening here? Gosh.
-Goodness.
What will we do with her?
-So much hard work for you.
-I'm fine.
That was so much work.
Not at all. I should get going now.
Oh, you came all the way here.
Have some honey tea before you go.
It's really all right.
Well, this isn't the first time.
It can't be easy carrying
this darn tall girl.
I'll get you some tea. It'll be a second.
Okay.
[I reached Cheonwangbong Peak
for the first time at seven.]
[By eight, I was able to go up alone.]
[I brought a Coke and drank it there.
It tasted like heaven.]
[And when I was nine
I started to walk along the ridges.]
[You've never seen stars up there, right?]
[It's awesome.]
She couldn't leave because
she loves mountains.
[Wildfire]
[Jirisan]
[A wildfire has broken out
on Mount Jirisan.]
[You said you saw
a wildfire suppression banner?]
[I need to find out where it happened.]
[It can get to the village.]
[If we find out where that is,
we may know where the fire started.]
Where is that thing?
[Are you saying Yi-gang is still there?]
[I don't know who that is.
But he's trying to get me.]
[Something happened?]
[Yi-gang, it's me.]
[I know it's hard,
but you should get mentally prepared.]

Someone died because of a potato bomb.
I didn't know someone died, though.
Someone left it there
on purpose, to kill people.
[Who did that?]
Yi-gang.
[He's Yang-sun's cousin?]
-Where's Yang-sun?
-Yang-sun!
Yang-sun.
Se-wook told me.
[He might have put it there
trying to kill him.]
Or maybe he was aiming for someone else.
[Are you sure you saw my grandpa?]
[He led Yang-sun there on purpose.]
No.
[Someone noticed our plan.]
[It was one of the rangers.]
Lee Se-wook!
No, he's not home.
I lied.
[To kill you.]
Yang-sun!
But that wasn't the end.
[There was someone else.
The real criminal.]
Can you help me?
What can I do?
[Year 2018]
You can see Mount Jirisan at a glance.
Wait.
Is that Cheonwangbong Peak?
No way.
You can't see all of it at a glance.
Mount Jirisan includes way over
Cheonwangbong Peak.
Jirisan is indeed far and wide.
By the way,
where could Lee Se-wook have gone?
We've searched for two months,
but he's nowhere to be seen.
There's no trace of him
coming down, either.
-What about that thing?
-Sorry?
You don't see anything these days?
You haven't mentioned it in months.
I haven't seen anything after that.
That's good.
Yes, I guess so.
Our day-off starts in just a couple hours.
Any plans? It's the Christmas holiday.
Stupid Christmas. I hate it.
Let's go. Back to patrol.
[You didn't forget
our Christmas date, right?]
[Don't be late this time.]
Over here. On three!
One, two, three!
That's nice.
Over here, sir! One, two, three!
One, two, three!
It's snowing!
It really feels like Christmas.
Come help if you have time
to take pictures.
Should we take one in front of the tree?
We're fine. You two go ahead.
-See you later.
-Party poopers.
Let's just take a selfie, the two of us.
Smile!
That looks nice.
What are you doing this Christmas?
Nothing much.
If you don't have plans,
do you want to go here with me?
It's called Penguin Swimming Festival.
You get to swim in the winter sea.
First place wins a 5-day trip
to Southeast Asia.
Is he serious?
Thanks, but
There's still time to think.
Take a look and let me know.
The prizes are great this year.
Hey, I'm in trouble.
This jerk, Il-hae
He's asking me
to take his shelter shift for him.
Otherwise, I have to pay him back
what I owe right now.
Can you please take the shift?
I have plans today.
But today is the day for me!
I'm finally watching a movie
with Yang-sun.
I've been waiting for this day for years.
Please?
Why don't you ask Yi-gang?
She's already been called in. Remember?
Ten scallion pancakes and a wish.
And Yi-gang needs you by her side.
-Thanks!
-What?
You guys are amazing.
Seo Yi-gang, Kang Hyun-jo.
You guys are the needle and the thread
of Mount Jirisan.
-So fast!
-I appreciate it too.
Today's the anniversary
of my father's death.
Bye.
Oh, right.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
You're just as lame as I am.
Do you really want to work on Christmas?
-Don't you have plans?
-Let's just say I don't.
[Bidam Shelter]
But who's the needle and who's the thread?
Does that even matter?
This is the shelter. Maximum capacity 20.
That door leads to the office.
This is the office.
The shop closes at nine.
The equipment are in there.
And this is the lost and found.
That's the storage with a generator.
It gets fussy in the winter.
If that happens, you can refer to
the manual in the desk drawer to fix it.
-Shall we get started?
-Sorry?
Start what?
Oh, gosh!
-Are you okay?
-Goodness.
Really?
That's not going to get any dust out.
Step aside.
Like this.
Beat it like this.
Like this!
Do it like this!
Like this?
That's not it!
Like this! Try it!
Jeez.
What?
Look at you.
Can't you fold them neatly?
I am!
In case you forgot,
I used to be a soldier.
Once you're done,
go organize the equipment in the cabinet.
Demon Seo
I can hear you. Get going!
Yes, ma'am.
Bidam Shelter.
[It's me, Il-hae.
I forgot to tell you earlier.]
[Someone's supposed to come
pick up a lost article today.]
[There's a note in the log you can check.]
Okay.
The lost and found log
Why? What is it?
Someone is coming
to pick up a lost article.
-But where's the log?
-Oh, that.
Here.
[Lost and Found Logbook]
Wait.
This must be him. Right?
[Yim Cheol-gyeong]
Why? Is there a problem?
What?
No.
Gosh, it's snowing.
Did you check the weather?
There was a snowstorm warning for tonight.
It's a real White Christmas.
Up here on the mountain
is a different world.
It may be nice down there,
but snow is your worst enemy here.
Your vision gets blurry in snow,
and the chance of getting lost goes up.
If your socks get wet by accident,
having hypothermia is a matter of time.
In a nutshell,
it's killer weather.
But people down there
must be happy.

[And in return has given away confidential

[The police have issued

-Yim Cheol-gyeong?
-Yes.
Isn't that a funny name?
Yi-gang was all over that punk.
There she goes again.
We can tell you're drunk.
Yi-gang was like 14, I believe,
when she ran away to the mountain,
and came back after 3 days,
but with a broken arm this time.
I couldn't just let her be.
So I sent her to that training center
for out-of-control kids.
And that's where it happened.
[Year 1997]
[Oh, our great youth!
Let's fly, fly away.]
Welcome to Cheongwon Training Center.
During the three days of your stay,
you must comply with our rules.
First, bring your cell phones
and personal items to the front.
He's so impudent.
-He scares me.
-What are you doing?
-What are you doing?
-Give that back!
-I need to submit this too?
-Let's go home!
Let's go home.
-What are you doing?
-Mom.
How scary. He doesn't scare me.
I've made a bad decision.
When will this end? Can I leave now?
I miss my mom.
You'll be doing boot training
from here to Cheonwangbong Peak.
First place gets 50K won gift certificate.
Second place 30K won, third place 20K won.
And the last one will clean the toilet.
How about the winner-takes-all?
-Yes!
-Yes!
Hurry!
[Cheongwon Training Center]
I can't do this!
[Cheonwangbong Peak]
Take my hand.
No, thanks.
[Cheonwangbong Peak]
[1st place]
That was something.
There comes the last one.
-Why are they so late, though?
-Wasn't he in front of us?
Be careful.
-The other one got hurt or something?
-Yes, it seems he got hurt.
I'm just so worn out.
Great job, everyone.
Now you've made it to the top.
Why don't we scream out loud?
All right.
Everyone, scream and
get some burden out of your mind.
Hey, shout out something.
Maybe something to your parents.
I have no parents.
Yi-gang!
What
What are you doing here?
Well
-I'm waiting for the bus.
-What?
What are you saying?
Our house is right here!
Where are you going to run off to again?
Come with me!
Right now!
What was that?
That brat!
Hey!
There's nothing much on this.
But it must be something special
if he's coming on Christmas day.
Maybe it's a present from someone.
You've been awfully quiet.
What's wrong?
What?
No.
I'm totally fine.
Bidam Shelter.
[Main Station speaking. We have an SOS.]
[Sprained ankle
on the way to Bidam Shelter.]
-Location?
[-Next to the old tree by Sonbawi Rock.]
Is that the one
who said he's coming to the shelter today?
[I haven't checked that.]
[The signal must've been weak
because of the weather.]
[The call got cut off.]
We'll get going soon.
It will take about an hour.
-I'll come too.
-You stay here.
You're going up alone in this weather?
Someone must stay here.
Then let me go.
I know the mountain better than you.
If anything happens,
I can contact Jangteomok for back-up.
So stay here.
Yi-gang.
Radio me if anything happens.
I'll come right away.
How reliable. You're all grown up now.
I've been, for a while.
Just don't fall asleep and miss the radio.
Illegal hiking on such a day?
Check the license plate.
Sir! This vehicle is on the wanted list.
-What?
-A wanted car!
Bidam Shelter.
[I heard a weird noise
from the 11 o'clock direction.]
[Yi-gang, are you all right?]
I heard nothing.
[Main Station, night duty room. It might
be a snow avalanche. We'll check.]
[100m to Sonbawi Rock.
I'll radio again when I get there.]
My goodness!
-What are you doing?
-Open the door.
I have fried chicken.
Open the door.
Hurry
Hurry up.
Coming.
Hurry, hurry.
Gosh, it's hot.
What on earth?
You should know better
than to come here in this weather.
Gosh, it's so warm and nice.
Hey, I brought chicken for you guys.
That's not chicken.
That's a box of ice.
Stop being mean.
I didn't have anywhere to go.
I
got stood up.
I wanted to meet someone and feel better.
It's Christmas.
But there's no place for me but here.
My nose is runny.
I've surely caught a cold.
It's freezing here.
You'd better clean these.
[Yim Cheol-gyeong]
Wait, this is
What?
-What's wrong?
-It's Yi-gang's first love.
That's him, Yim Cheol-gyeong.
It's a unique name, so I remember.
Right, he's the same age as her.
You know how Yi-gang blabbers on
about her past when she's drunk.
Yim Cheol-gyeong, Yi-gang's first love.
Where did she say they met?
I think it was
at some teenager training center.
When Yi-gang ran away from home and
went to Seoul, she bumped into him again.
[Now that's destiny.]

We've got this!
Thank you.
Take one!
Take one!

Or are you a soccer ball?
Did you run away again?
What?
Here.

Good luck!
You can do it!
-Good luck!
-You'll do great!
Have you seen the beach?
Yes.
On TV.
How bad was it?
I think I got one or two right.
I want to ask you something.
Why did you slap me?
At the bus stop.
I was jealous of you.
What?
You had somewhere else to go.
But I was stuck there.
What do you want to be?
I don't know yet. You?
All I know is that the ocean isn't for me.
This little brat!
It's not even 10k won or 20k won.
But you stole 100k won?
-It wasn't me.
-Don't you lie to me.
How did you get the money
to buy a motorcycle then?
I knew I shouldn't have trusted you!
How dare you stab me in the back?
Stop it!
You're not even sure he did it.
You two are in this together, aren't you?
I took pity on you
because you don't have parents,
and this is how you repay me?
Get out of here! You're both fired!
We will.
But give us this month's paycheck!
Get lost!
Here's your money.
Here!
Take every last penny!
And don't ever come back!
Darn it.
Hey.
You didn't steal the money, did you?
Well, I
Hey!
Where are you going?
I don't know what I'll become,
but I won't live this humiliating life.
[Merry Christmas]
Joy to the world!
-Is this money?
-Hey, what's this?
It's money!
Hey, that's mine!
-We got lucky!
-That's mine!.
This is mine! What's wrong with you?
-I was picking them up for you.
-No, thanks!
-I was helping you.
-This is mine. Go away.
Let's go.
We're professors, we don't need this.
Gosh.
Ever since, Yi-gang's been having
cursed Christmas holidays.
But
I think I'll be like her from now on too.
-Bidam Shelter.
[-This is Haedong Police Substation.]
[We found a suspicious car
down the mountain.]
[A wanted man
is assumed to be on the mountain.]
Excuse me?
[It's near Bidam Shelter.
Have you seen a suspicious man?]
[He's a drug squad detective,
wanted for bribery.]
[His name's Yim Cheol-gyeong.]
[Yim Cheol-gyeong]
How
What part needs fixing?
Gosh.
Hey! Where are you going?
What on earth?
I must look for Yim Cheol-gyeong.
Are you crazy?
He's a wanted criminal.
And a drug squad detective.
-What if he has a gun?
-Exactly.
I heard a strange sound earlier
from the 11 o'clock direction.
It sounded like a gunshot.
-It must be near here.
-Then you really shouldn't.
There's no electricity, no radio.
What if something happens to you?
So hurry up and fix the generator.
-I'll go look by myself.
-Hey!
You said Yi-gang knows him.
All the more reason to find him.
Hello?
Anyone?
Over here!
Are you all right?
Are you from the shelter?
Yes, from Bidam Shelter.
Is this your first time hiking?
You're sure to sprain your ankle
if you wear new shoes
to the snowy mountain.
Plus, no crampons.
Cheol-gyeong
Has a man named Yim Cheol-gyeong
come to the shelter?
He must have gone to find a lost article.
He's in his mid-thirties, about 180cm.
Have you seen him?
No. He didn't come.
That's impossible.
He must have gone there.
Take me to the shelter. Please.
I'm a detective in the drug squad.
One of my seniors got wrongfully accused
for getting bribery from a drug cartel.
He said the evidence to prove
his innocence is in the shelter.
I must go get it.
Why is such an important object
in the shelter?
He said he has set up a spy in the cartel.
They've been meeting up on Mount Jirisan,
away from prying eyes.
and the informer once again,
left an evidence at the shelter.
Why am I doing this?
I should've learned when Il-hae fixed it.
What in the world?
We're from Gunsan Police Station,
Cheongmun audit.
Are you here for the wanted car?
The wanted man must be
-We're aware.
-The time
-Sorry?
-What about Bidam Shelter?
Can you reach them?
I sent the search for the wanted man,
but they are not answering their phone.
I called the main station,
but we can't radio them either as of now.
Call the National Park again.
We must go up to the mountain now.
Okay.
Why? Is it not working?
-Let's go to the shelter.
-Thank you.
It's not because of your coworker.
It takes more than two hours
to go down the mountain,
but only an hour to the shelter.
Stay the night there
and go down tomorrow when it clears up.
-Can you get up?
-Yes.
What was the thing Cheol-gyeong
was coming to get?
A blue rucksack.
[The sound came from 11 o'clock.]
[If he started climbing from where the car
was found, it must be near here.]
Excuse me, sir!
Wake up!
Don't fall asleep.
Just a bit further.
Hang in there.
Why did he leave the door open?
What if the generator freezes?
Wait here, please.
Gu-yeong!
Put that down.
I said put it down.
[Hello, this is the police.]
[Hello? Can you hear me?]
[700 Meters to Bidam Shelter]
Why didn't you pick up your phone?
We're on the mountain.
There was no signal.
The evidence? Did you find it?
I looked everywhere, but I didn't see it.
Cheol-gyeong didn't say what it was.
I heard it's a blue rucksack.
Are you sure?
I searched before,
but there was nothing special in it.
I'm sure. That's what she said.
This bag or anywhere else, there's
no proof that we've received bribery.
She said it was a blue rucksack for sure.
This jerk, Yim Cheol-gyeong lied.
There was no evidence to begin with.
Why on earth?
Stay still.
Are you okay?
Freeze!
Detective Yim was right.
The real criminal did show up.
But I didn't think there would be two.
Are you all right?
[Year 2006]
["The Host" has set a new record]

-Whatever! I'm going back to Seoul!
-Oh, no!
Leave me alone.
Hey!
You!
What a temper. Hey!
I said no.
Why are you doing this?
Why?
What will you do in Seoul?
I've watched you until now,
but what have you done there?
Did you go to college or get a job?
Gosh.
You know, I hate mountains!
What?
Just look.
They give bonus points
for local residents.
And no college degree is required.
Just work here.
Why are you doing this?
You're killing me.
You're all grown up now!
You've always crawled up to the mountains.
And now you're saying you hate them?
Go, go in!
Over here!
Hurry up and go in!
Hey! Come here!
[Job Interview]
-Why did you apply?
-No reason.
I don't want to work here.
I hate mountains.
Tell me. Why did you apply?
Are you still afraid of mountains?
Not bad.
It's better than
underestimating mountains.
There aren't many applicants
around your age.
-Give it a try.
-No, thanks.
Do you still think that
I made your parents die?
Then, why don't you
save people from now on?
I couldn't save them,
but you're different from me.
If you're scared that people die up there,
save their lives.
Before they die.
Well
It seemed like you don't have anything
important to do from your resume.
Show us what you've got here.
Whatever!
No drinking during hiking.
I've been climbing Mount Jirisan
for 50 years.
I can climb with my eyes closed.
If you keep doing this,
I'll tell your wife.
I'll return this to you when you go down.
You could've talked to him.
Stop calling me over.
People like him never listen to me.
You're so good at this, though.
I came to find a lost article.
[MP3 Player, Windbreaker, Planner]
Is this it?
Thanks.
[Bidam Shelter]
You're managing
the lost articles pretty tight.
Only the owner can take them, right?
Yes. You can't take anything
unless you know what it is.
Are you a cop now?
I'm just a low-rank constable for now.
That's the opposite of a humiliating life.
You got what you wanted.
You too.
You look better with mountains than seas.
By the way,
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
Well
I
You know, before
An SOS report! Cardiac arrest!
Will I see you if I come back here?
I'll visit often.
See you again.
Seriously
I thought he would die.
Are you okay?
Yes.
Liar. You're obviously not.
I can understand why you keep saying
you want to quit.
Let's both quit.
I don't think I can do this.
No
I won't quit.
I'm going to stay here with this mountain.
It'll hurt.
Ouch!
I can't help with it.
Someone slammed me down,
and I don't remember anything after that.
What happened?
Rest for a bit. I'll bring you some water.
So much blood.
Is this all my blood?
It's been a while.
Yes.
I'm sorry. I didn't think
it'd get this dangerous.
On top of the weather condition,
the plans got changed at the last minute
I didn't know you were still here.
I haven't seen you once here,
so I thought you quit.
Did you come here often after that?
Yes.
You should've called me.
Actually,
I need to make a confession.
What is it?
You were right.
The money
I stole that money.
Really? Why?
I wanted a motorcycle.
To take you to the beach.
A few months later, I returned the money
and apologized to the owner.
I was going to tell you
the last time we met,
but I couldn't.
I was too embarrassed.
I wanted to tell you
if we ran into each other here,
but I guess Mount Jirisan is big and wide.
It took this long.
I'm sorry I lied.
Aren't you embarrassed now?
I'm fine. Maybe because
I'm much older now.
I'll call you next time
when I come here for hiking.
My wife loves mountains too.
Bring proper shoes, clothes,
and gear next time.
Don't bug me by getting lost or something.
Okay.
It's cold out here.
We'll ask for your help
as witnesses later.
-Thank you for everything.
-Sure.
I'll call you.
Hey!
So that's Yim Cheol-gyeong?
Right?
Right?
Gosh, you.
I'm hurt.
Are you all right?
Yang-sun! What are you doing here?
Are you all right? I heard you got hurt.
Well, I'm not badly hurt or anything.
But
That can't be true
-Are you here because of me?
-Yes, I was worried.
You didn't even show up yesterday.
What? What do you mean I didn't show up?
I did.
Were you there?
[You wanted to meet outside the theater,
but you didn't come.]
[December 24th, 4:02 p.m]
[Jeong Gu-yeong]
[I was wondering what happened to you.]
I waited at the ticket box.
You said outside the theater.
Why didn't you call each other?
I didn't want to pressure her.
Me too. I thought
you've got something else.
So you came.
It was freezing yesterday. Are you okay?
Didn't you catch a cold?
I'm fine. What about your wound?
It's only a scratch.
Did you run?
Yes
They're so frustrating.
Let's leave them alone.
How pathetic is this?
Everyone else is enjoying Christmas.
But what are we doing here?
This is why I really hate Christmas.
Did you really like
Cheol-gyeong that much?
So much that you couldn't
leave the mountain?
What on earth are you talking about?
-I think it's true.
-It's not.
Then what?
Why do you keep saying you hate mountains
but stuck around here
for years as a ranger?
I don't know why I'm doing this.
Gosh, my life.
That's sweet potato makgeolli.
You want to know why
I became a ranger?
I was six
when I first climbed the mountain.
This way.
-All right.
-Put her down here.
Oh, dear.
-What's happening here? Gosh.
-Goodness.
What will we do with her?
-So much hard work for you.
-I'm fine.
That was so much work.
Not at all. I should get going now.
Oh, you came all the way here.
Have some honey tea before you go.
It's really all right.
Well, this isn't the first time.
It can't be easy carrying
this darn tall girl.
I'll get you some tea. It'll be a second.
Okay.
[I reached Cheonwangbong Peak
for the first time at seven.]
[By eight, I was able to go up alone.]
[I brought a Coke and drank it there.
It tasted like heaven.]
[And when I was nine
