Sell Your Haunted House (2021) s01e12 Episode Script

1
Are you asking me to protect you
while you see Do Hak-seong?
After the exorcism ritual,
Do Hak-seong will try
to kill me and In-beom.
In that case,
you can just not do the exorcism.
After what happened in the cold room
and what happened to Ms. Joo,
why do you have to do it anyway?
The vengeful spirit haunting Do Hak-seong
is In-beom's uncle who died 20 years ago.
I can't let him stay like that.
Fine.
I don't believe in spirits or exorcism.
I'm doing this because
I cannot turn down a citizen
who's asking for help.
Why are we staking out here tonight?
Because I received a tipoff.
A tipoff? On kidnapping? Burglary?
Let's wait and see.
You said you'd have it ready
after I took a nap.
Then you killed me. Why?
What?
Oh Seong-sik, you
You! Give me my apartment!
Mr. Do!
Darn you!
In-beom!
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!
It was him. It was Oh Seong-sik.
Pardon?
It was Oh Seong-sik!
Darn it.
That crazy bastard.
Run him over.
Just run him over, you idiot!
Those bastards.
-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.
-Seong-sik! Goodness.
-Who the hell are you?
Please stop.
You should've left
when we told you to get lost.
-We're humans too!
-But you're poor.
No one told you to live like beggars.
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
live on the streets?
Yes, those eyes.
Write me a memorandum.
What?
That you'll give me
an apartment unit
if I set those houses on fire.
Write me a memorandum.
Write that down.
That's a written statement
that says you did it by yourself.
You need to give it to me
for me 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 worry about it.
That was the house
for my mother and In-beom to live in.
The apartment unit.
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-seong.
My uncle was going to turn himself in,
but Do Hak-seong 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.
What about you?
Did I do that to your arm?
No.
That's a relief.
I was scared
I'd hurt you.
I'm sorry.
My stubbornness 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
nor your mom.
No.
That can't be.
Are you sure?
Like you said,
my mom wasn't in Oh Seong-sik's memories.
I thought I'd find a way
to give her peace this time around.
Stop trying to find
the truth about that day.
Your mom passed away
while trying to save a possessed child.
That's all.
That's what she was like.
No.
Had that been the case,
she wouldn't be still staying here.
You also 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?
Every day, 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 stay
in this world as a vengeful spirit.
But at times, I'm so happy
that I can still see her.
And then,
I hate myself for feeling 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!
-You bastard.
-This is so unfair!
-Don't you see this bruise?
We didn't hit anyone.
Answer me properly.
I know Do Hak-seong ordered you
to harm Ms. Hong from Daebak Realty
because she got in the way
of the redevelopment.
Am I wrong?
-Yes, you're wrong.
-You bastard!
Just let them go. These scumbags
won't spill anything.
Where are you going?
I'm sorry, but the chairman
doesn't want to meet with anyone today.
This is urgent.
It won't be long.
Fine. I'll come back later.
How does this make sense?
How could a guy
I killed 20 years ago reappear?
I told you, I don't want to see anyone!
A detective is here.
You must be busy.
You can go.
Yes, sir.
Who are you?
I'm Detective Kang Han-seok from Jungbu.
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 happened to see you there yesterday.
Didn't you hire those men to threaten her
since Daebak 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 was
burned down 20 years ago,
conveniently for you.
You police investigated
and closed the case!
Why are you bringing that up again?
You're 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 received a memorandum from him.
It even has
Do Hak-seong's thumbprint on it.
It's been 20 years already.
Do you think it's still around?
I'm sure Do Hak-seong
got rid of it already.
No, he hasn't found it yet.
That's why he rummaged through 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 going 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-beom.
Are you sleeping? I'm coming in.
Grandma!
Grandma.
Wake up. Grandma.
Wake up, Grandma.
I need to tell you something.
How could you do this to me?
You're being too cruel!
Grandma.
Let's go home.
What are you talking about?
I'll go bring the doctor.
I have my own house.
I don't want to die in the hospital.
Grandma.
Grandma.
The police called me.
Uncle
didn't commit suicide.
I knew it. There's no way
Seong-sik would do such a thing.
But,
Uncle
He didn't die because of me either.
You told me
Mom, Dad, and Uncle
all died because of me.
Why did you do that?
Why did you lie to me?
Why did you blame everything on me?
How could you do that
to your only family left?
Do you have any idea
how I've felt all my life?
It's delicious.
In-beom.
Once I pass,
everything I told you
You're up, Mom.
Gosh, Mom.
You should've told me sooner
if this needed some fixing.
What are sons for?
It's all good.
What do you think?
Thank you.
DAEBAK REALTY
NAME: HONG JI-A
It would've been better for all of us
if you'd done this sooner.
So is your exorcism ritual over now?
Good work.
That's for you.
There's an evil spirit
called an egg ghost.
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 are you trying to say?
I realized just now
that you are
the living version of an egg ghost.
Wherever you go, people die.
There's a reason egg ghosts
turn out that way, at least.
It's a collection of spirits
of those who have died in great pain
without even knowing why.
So their resentment grows 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 it.
DAEBAK REALTY
That arrogant wench.
PSYCHIC, SPECIAL
It's me.
Could you do me a favor?
Is my grandma
Is she here?
No, I think she left in peace.
I'm so relieved. What a relief.
What?
You're all coming?
Of course. We aren't strangers.
I heard he didn't have any relatives.
It'd be tough to have no one around
on a day like this.
Thank you.
Goodness, let's hurry.
Let's go.
Thank you.
This way, please.
You must be devastated, but be strong.
Thank you.
-I'm sure she's in a better place.
-Thank you.
-Eat up.
-Some more jeon, please.
Some more jeon? Is it good?
All right. Coming right up.
-Ma'am, we need more jeon.
-Okay.
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 one is hot.
Thank you.
Where are you?
I have a feeling it's somewhere here.
Gosh.
Well, I was just
You're asleep?
Why do you do this to me?
I'm going back now.
I hope the funeral ends well.
Okay.
Thank you for letting me
put my uncle to rest.
Thanks to you, I think
my grandma is able to rest in peace.
She had a great grandson.
Come to think about it, you're right.
What would she have done
if I weren't a psychic?
That's the only family photo
of our entire family.
She always made a fuss of this photo
whenever we moved house.
She always put it
where she could always see it,
but somewhere out of reach.
MEMORANDUM REGARDING APARTMEN
I, DO HAK-SEONG, WILL GIVE A UNI
IN GOLDEN APARTMENT TO OH SEONG-SIK
NOVEMBER 7, 2001,
SIGNED BY DO HAK-SEONG, OH SEONG-SIK
-He really had this.
-What are you going to do now?
This can prove
Do Hak-seong made your uncle set the fire.
But it can't prove he murdered him.
I know.
But it's better than nothing.
I'll try to find 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 murdering?
This is huge, isn't it?
He won't pick up.
The person you have called is unavailable.
Call him one more time.
He won't pick up.
Where did he go? Why is he still not here?
Who?
Who 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 did you last see Kim Tae-jin?
I haven't seen him since breakfast. Why?
MEMORANDUM REGARDING APARTMEN
This is it.
Yes!
I hit the jackpot!
This is like the winning lottery ticket!
GHOST FRAUD
You're here, sir.
Seon-nyeo, pay up.
Yes, sir.
How much is it?
Pay him nicely.
He drove a long way to get me here.
Oh In-beom.
I wasn't picking up.
Shouldn't you have taken the hint?
You know how it works.
What's with you? 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-seong?
He never lets anyone live
who finds out about his weakness.
You of all people should know that.
Think carefully
about whom you should join hands with
to benefit more.
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?
Do Hak-seong
almost killed Kim Tae-jin once.
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.
Really? That's great!
This place has been suffocating me.
Right. I need to bring some clothes.
This is totally not my style.
Then it's good that Ji-a went
to your house to bring some clothes.
Ji-a did?
She always nagged me for not cleaning up,
but her house is a pigpen too.
Where are her socks?
RECORD OF EXORCISM: 1979
RECORD OF EXORCISM: 1979
Why does she have this?
Explain.
Why was this at your house?
You said you didn't know.
When I said my grandma's
record of exorcism was missing,
you said you had no idea.
As if you didn't know about it.
Say something.
Make an excuse, at least.
Why do you have this, Aunt?
That was
your mom's belonging that I received
from the police in your stead.
I was meaning to tell you
but kept putting it off.
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 said before,
what you remember
about that day are not true.
You fabricated the memories
to protect yourself.
Don't you lie to me!
Ji-a, calm down.
How could you
deceive me for 20 years
as if you knew nothing?
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 GHOSTS
Egg ghosts
cannot be exorcized
through the common method.
But there is a way.
A spiritual needle without the spirit's
name on it can cause physical damage.
Stabbing the possessed psychic's heart
is the only way to exorcize it.
"Stabbing the possessed psychic's heart
is the only way to exorcize it."
"Exorcists can also be possessed."
EXORCISTS CAN ALSO BE POSSESSED
She knew she'd die but she still did 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,
even 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 haven't left?
You should've just ignored him!
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 see what happened that day
with my very own eyes.
HONG MI-JIN
Pull yourself together, Ji-a!
You have to do this.
Now.
I can't do it, Mom.
You can.
HONG MI-JIN
HONG MI-JIN
Stop it.
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 RESTAURAN
Gosh. Kim Tae-jin, that jerk.
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
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 possessed by an egg ghost is here.
But egg ghosts can't be exorcised.
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 the exorcism.
Please take good care of my daughter
while I'm gone.
Mi-jin. Hold on. Mi-jin.
In-beom, let's go.
-I heard what you said on your phone.
-Move.
If I don't perform an exorcism on him,
more people will die.
To stop that disaster,
we must sacrifice the boy.
What are you talking about?
A disaster or not,
I'll never let you kill In-beom!
You will never understand.
Ms. Hong?
My mom
I
killed my mom.
Ms. Hong!
No.
Ms. Hong!
Wake up.
Hong Ji-a!
It was odd she fought with Ms. Joo
as soon as she woke up.
Ms. Joo, 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 for her
is disappear.
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?
