Memories of Murder (살인의 추억)

Junk car! Junk car!

Get out of here, kid.

I told you to get out of here.

OCTOBER 23, 1986

- Go home, kid. - Go home, kid.

- Little brat. - Little brat.

- What the hell are they doing? - What the hell are they doing?

- Hey, you! - Hey, you!

- Put that back! - Put that back!

Hey, leave it there. Go away.

- Hey, you! - Hey, you!

- That's important, don't touch! - That's important, don't touch!

- Those kids. - Those kids.

MEMORIES OF MURDER

What?

You dated the dead girl, and she dumped you last August?

Is that right?

That's correct.

That's correct? Take off your hat, you damn punk.

Do women like guys like you?

After watching Body Heat...

Body Heat? That an action movie?

A C, 1.

Damn punk.

Since it's a rape and murder case and all...

well...

If she was sexy, or pretty, that sort of thing.

Your impressions?

Well...

she didn't seem like a country girl...

Don't blink.

You blinked, didn't you?

Hey, look at me.

Don't look at the ceiling, look at me!

Was he born that way? One, two...

Didn't you want to go to the Military Academy?

Did you take the exam?

You need to study hard to get in there.

- Receipt! - You didn't ask for one.

What? I told you to bring one.

- I told you. - No you didn't.

That's what you said last time...

Here's one, here.

You answered the phone, you lying bastard.

I need a receipt from the restaurant. Not from a bicycle shop.

DIRECTED BY BONG JOON HO

Why didn't you rope the place off?

At least get some sticks to drive them in, morons.

Inspector Park, over here!

- What is this? - It's a footprint.

- When did you find it? - This morning, sir!

Go help those jerks over there.

- You called the forensics team? - Yes, they're on their way.

But where's the person who reported this?

No forensics team, this is total chaos!

Jesus, look at him!

Hey!

Get out of here!

Who received the call on this?

Did you find out who reported it?

The phone... The crime site is getting ruined.

Damn forensics team's not here, this is a mess.

What are you talking about?

Take pictures when I tell you!

Why'd you bring so many reporters?

They were all here when I arrived.

Reporter Park's not here. Must be on vacation.

- I don't see him. - Feels great with that shithead gone.

Why does this have to happen to me?

How can I investigate like this?

Hey, tractor! Hey, tractor!

Tractor!

Tractor, stay away! Detour!

If someone waves, shouldn't you look?

Shit, is he deaf?

Shit! Look at this.

Now those bastards show up.

What the hell took you so long?

The crime scene's ruined!

Jesus, look at these sliding fools!

What's going on?

How can you look at those photos while eating?

If I keep staring at them,

one moment it'll hit me.

- Instinctively. - Are you a fortune teller?

Open up a shop then.

Chief, I may know nothing else, but my eyes can read people.

It's how I survive as a detective.

There's a reason people say I have shaman's eyes.

Okay, then.

You see those two guys there?

One of them's a rapist, and the other is the victim's brother.

He caught the guy doing this to his sister, and dragged him in.

So tell me, which one's the rapist?

- Hey. - What?

I think it fell out.

Really?

Let's do this properly.

I'll give this to you especially today.

I'm so grateful.

It's just a flu shot.

Know how much this costs?

- Kwak Seol-yeong? - Yeah?

You must be earning more now than at the hospital.

I hear everyone in town comes to you.

Shh. I got something to tell you.

I heard this from the old woman at the mill.

You know the Baek family meat restaurant?

The Baek family?

You know what people call them?

What?

The Baek Lady Killers.

- Ladies? - Yeah.

But the son's a little bit retarded. Kwang-ho.

Kwang-ho used to follow Hyang-sook around all the time.

Hyang-sook? The one who was killed?

Yeah.

She was found with a girdle over her head?

Right.

Even more important,

the night she was killed,

that old woman saw Kwang-ho following her.

- Really? - That's what I'm saying.

I heard that old hag went senile last year.

No, she's fine.

That kid... Wait.

Kwang-ho? What's he look like?

This side of his face is a bit... you know.

Tell me in detail.

Anyways, he's a poor little kid.

Kwang-ho.

Let's talk man to man.

You see a pretty girl, you want to do her.

When I was your age, I'd go out with friends, I understand.

You never intended to kill Hyang-sook at first, huh?

"How about just touching her breast..."

I couldn't touch it.

So you killed her? Kill her, then you can touch it.

No, I didn't.

That guy coming down now, he's had a hard life, like you.

He's nice.

He's really sweet. He never beats anyone.

But sometimes, you know,

if he gets worked up about something...

God, what an ugly face.

Just looking at this face makes me angry.

Shit.

Shit.

Pretty?

This is so it won't leave scratches, you punk.

Hey, hey...

What's with the army boots?

Doing this to the kid...

Kwang-ho, get up.

Are you really innocent? Huh?

Look in my eyes.

Huh?

Where the hell's he looking? Look in my eyes!

TURN YOURSELF IN, OR MAY YOU ROT AND DIE.

Excuse me, miss...

Hello?

Oh, miss?

Are you all right?

Why are you following me?

No, I just wanted to ask directions.

Let me help you.

Let go!

What's wrong?

Rolling in the fields, huh? Is this town a rapist's paradise?

You shithead.

What the hell?

Who are you?

Get over here.

Hey, miss! The victim needs to file a report!

Miss!

Where is she going?

Are you a detective?

You should have told me.

My mistake.

How can a detective be such a bad fighter?

How can a detective have such a bad eye for criminals?

What's that smell?

Oh, sneakers. They smell bad?

But these here are evidence item #28.

Develop these quickly, huh?

- Uh, chief. - What?

This guy here... from Seoul.

Nice to meet you! I got the call...

But...

your face...

Did anything happen?

- No, nothing. - A desk, you need...

Oh, I prepared a desk over there with lots of sunlight.

I think... I like that corner.

Okay, okay! As you wish.

Inspector Jo, say hello.

From Seoul,

Seo Tae-... yoon, senior officer.

Jo Yong-go. Nice to meet you.

He volunteered to assist with this investigation.
