The Zone: Survival Mission (더 존: 버텨야 산다)

Where are we today?

-(Yuri exclaims) That looks appetizing.

Look at all that.

A PEACEFUL VILLAGE

-(clatters) -(man screams)

What was that?

THEY BECOME WITNESSES TO A SHOCKING CASE

What happened? -(gasps)

Something must be going on in this village.

What kind of rumor?

What is this?

A locked-room murder case!

How much time do we have?

Let's hide in here.

I guess we shouldn't let the villagers catch us.

The weather is nice. -(Yuri exclaims)

Why are you talking like that? How dare you?

You impertinent fool. What?

I am a nobleman, and this is how noblemen speak.

PESTERING KWANGSOO NO MATTER THE TIME PERIOD

Come now. Let us go.

What character is he trying to be?

-(Yuri laughs) -Come and open the gate.

Hurry here.

Where are we today?

It's on a wooden bench today.

Should we take off our shoes?

Come up.

Can't you take them off quickly?

HE TAKES AGES TO REMOVE HIS SHOES

Be swift. -Is this how we're supposed to act?

Our roles fit us perfectly. I...

It's good to see you, guys. It's begun.

Do you like the outfits?

Is this really all there is to it?

Maybe I'm a nobleman disguised as a servant or something?

There's nothing like that. -(chuckles)

Shut it.

This is bad.

Now, I'll explain today's simulation to you.

You will be a secret royal investigator and his rabble.

So I am a secret royal investigator,

you are my servant...

-I see. -...and you are my bodyguard.

That is what it is.

Then what am I supposed to do?

You do what I tell you to do.

-Carry our luggage. -Right.

-That's not how you should speak. -How dare you...

Do you see a pouch placed in front of you?

Yes.

-It's a Horse Plaque. -(both exclaim)

It's the real deal.

The secret royal investigator is here!

Right.

Right.

Today's mission is simple.

In this simulation resembling a mysterious old village,

reason wisely so that everything will return to its place,

and hold out for four hours.

What?

No wonder I have been summoned here.

I am the icon of reasoning. I am Deducing Yu.

-This is crazy. -We can't complain

because of our roles, right?

If I were to pick a similar character in a western story,

I would be someone like Sherlock Holmes.

-Then would that make me Lupin? What?

-You are just my cane. -(both laugh)

Not Lupin, but a cane.

-That's a little... -You are there to support me,

and you'd be by my side as a cane. Okay?

Now take your items and get started right away.

All right, let us go.

-Put on your shoes. -Mine's gone.

What? You put them over there.

Did you not put them over there?

HE DEFINITELY TOOK THEM OFF HERE...

They must be here. No, they aren't.

What? What?

Your shoes... They're gone.

What... Where did they go?

You put them on the side.

My shoes are gone!

THE ZONE HAS BEEN ACTIVATED

The door is opening.

-My shoes are gone! -Gosh.

Come here. There's nothing we can do about it.

But... We'll buy a pair somewhere.

Right, let's do that.

But I'm only wearing socks. Enough.

Goodness.

Come take a look at the best-quality rice taffy ever.

Come and take a look.

Buy some salt for the kimchi-making season.

HWAYANG VILLAGE IS FULL OF LIFE

Hold on. They're selling gukbap here.

I love gukbap . We have money, right?

I do. We must have gukbap here.

I'll have gukbap

-no matter what. -This place is famous for its gukbap .

Wow. -(Jaeseok gasps)

-Gosh. Oh, my.

-(Jaeseok chuckles) Look who it is!

Goodness.

Hello. -Gosh.

JIN BUNHONG HWAYANG VILLAGE'S TAVERN OWNER

I am the owner of this place, Jin Bunhong.

-We would like to have some gukbap here. -Gosh.

Sure, we're famous for our gukbap .

You don't seem to be from around here. Come in for a bowl each.

All right, take a seat.

-Gosh. Thank you.

Nice. Dongchimi too!

-My lord! -Oh, well.

-(Kwangsoo exclaims) -Take a seat.

We should grab a bowl.

It's cooked nicely.

Very nice.

Have a taste.

-Gosh. -Thank you.

This is it.

You can't have it elsewhere.

Oh, my. -It's your first time, right?

It made me so mad when I saw the episode.

Goodness.

-This gukbap was a smash hit... -It's amazing.

...back in the zombie episode .

It's the same one.

How am I supposed to eat like this?

Even zombies were dying to have it.

-Mm. -(Yuri exclaims)

Why are there only two bowls?

Ma'am, get us one more bowl. -Yes?

Why? Do you need more?

-(Yuri gasps) -You haven't finished it.

KWANGSOO IS INVISIBLE TO JIN BUNHONG?

Enjoy.

-What on earth? -(Bunhong chuckles)

Why didn't I get a bowl?

But... Excuse me.

We ordered three bowls. Why did she give us two?

3 PEOPLE WITH 2 BOWLS OF GUKBAP

Why do strange things happen only to you?

Tell me about it.

SURVIVAL MISSION

Why do strange things happen only to you?

Tell me about it.

Gosh. Right.

This is to die for.

Give us one more bowl. Try this.

Try this. Handmade kimchi is the best.

Ma'am. Oh, yes?

I'm done with the errand.

Ah...

Eat up.

SOMETHING FEELS OFF

Something doesn't feel right.

What? Get going.

What... I guess

-something's going on. Have some wine too.

What did she just say?

-(Bunhong chuckles) -I couldn't hear it.

They were whispering something.

Buy me a pair of shoes.

I can't believe I'm making deliveries.

-Ms. Jin, I'm here. Oh, hey.

SHIN WOO HWAYANG VILLAGE HANGOVER SOUP DELIVERYMAN

-Hi. Where should I deliver it to?

Just a moment.

Take this. There's more.

-Deliver this to Lord Sim's house. What?

I packed some hangover soup too.

He delivers food.

-So he's a deliveryman. Yes.

-Excuse me. -You're right.

If you have time, could you help me out?

Sure, I will.

How kind of you.

-Something must be going on. We have no time.

-Leave this to me. -Gosh.

-Let's hurry on. -Gosh.

Do we just tag along?

Yes, follow me.

-Thanks for the food. -Goodbye.

Can you clean up? -Sure thing.

Hurry on. -Okay.

Everyone acts like I'm invisible.

What is this? "No ugly men allowed."

"No ugly men allowed"?

"Whoever with a great physique and shines like he's wearing makeup."

"Whoever with soft skin and whoever is perfect

should all come to the tavern in Hwayang Village."

"Those who are tall are at an advantage now."

Those who are tall are at an advantage!

"We welcome inquiries at all times."

-"We'll be waiting." Oh.

That place is small and cramped, but they're hiring more people.

How annoying.

-Let's go. Okay.
