Monstrous (괴이)

(All names, places, companies, organizations, and incidents...)

(If any exists in reality, it is by coincidence.)

Please protect your sheep...

from the influences of the devil.

Please be merciful and gracious.

Amen.

Chief Han. You know better than anyone else...

that Won Seok would never do that.

Of course, ma'am. I know that.

The victim is someone Won Seok was close with.

He told me Won Seok would never do something like this...

and that something must've happened.

Things will be okay. Don't worry.

Thank you.

- Thank you, Chief Han. - No problem.

Where's Mr. Bang Won Seok's guardian?

- Yes, over here. - The test results are in.

Please follow me to the doctor's office.

Chief Han, can you come with me?

What if I don't understand what the doctor is saying?

Okay. I'll go with you.

Hello.

I'm the police chief of Chunggeum Patrol Station in Jinyang-gun.

This is Mr. Bang Won Seok's mother.

- Hello. Please have a seat. - Have a seat.

Did you find anything that could be the cause?

His blood alcohol level and everything else was normal.

These numbers say he only had a couple of sips of soju.

This much alcohol doesn't make someone become so violent.

Then...

It's not like there are drugs in the countryside.

Won Seok isn't the kind of person to do such a thing either.

We ran tests as soon as he was brought in last night.

His glutamate numbers were off the charts.

This is a couple of hundred times higher than the average person.

A couple of hundred times higher?

What is it, and why is it so high?

It's one of the excitatory chemicals in your brain.

If your body excretes too much of it and your receptors get damaged,

it could cause problems with your cognitive abilities...

such as memory loss and hallucinations.

Is it possible for your body to excrete too much of it...

all of a sudden?

I'm not sure.

While it could increase by little,

I've never seen the numbers go up a hundredfold.

What's even stranger is when we ran the tests again in the morning,

all of the numbers were back to normal.

To be honest, up until last night,

we thought the patient would pass away.

Oh, Lord.

Then what about Won Seok?

We gave him sedatives, so he's unconscious right now.

But he'll wake up soon.

The broken collarbone will require him to stay here a few more weeks.

Aside from that, he's okay. So don't worry too much.

Thank you.

Thank you, Doctor.

- Hey, Officer Kim. - Chief Han, where are you?

- What's wrong? - You need to come in quick.

Hurry!

Hello? Hey!

- Hurry up and open the door! - Gosh.

What's going right?

Block them!

Have some water, sir.

Slowly.

What do you want, you punk?

- Hey. - Slowly.

Sir, do you feel better now?

- What... - What are you doing? Are you crazy?

Sir!

Go away! Get away from me!

Get her away from me!

Where are you going? Wait for me!

You punk!

Let go of me!

Hey, lady! Come to your senses!

Hold on!

Let go of me! Save me!

- Save me! - Where are you going?

- Where are you going? - Hurry!

Hurry!

No. Help us!

No, you can't come in!

Close the door!

- Open the door! Save me! - Close the door!

- Get out! - Close it!

Let me help.

- Close the door! - Hey!

Let go of me, you punk!

Let go! I'm the governor, you punk!

Let go of me. Do you want to die?

I'm going to kill all of you!

Let go of me!

Hey, you punk!

Lock the door.

Hey. That's enough.

That's enough.

- No. Move! - Move!

- Don't open it, you punk! - Yong Ju.

What?

Darn it. What?

I'm glad you're here. Go in and get some rest.

Thank you.

Darn it. What are you all doing standing there like idiots?

Barricade the doors if you don't want to die.

He's right. Let's do that.

- Right. - Check to see that it's locked.

Does this come down?

It does.

Put everything you can find there.

- Bring that over here. - Over here.

Are you okay?

Yes. Are you okay?

Ha Young.

Ha Young!

I'm home.

Mom, I have to go to the bathroom.

Look! It's a present for Dad.

I should hide before he comes home.

Ha Young.

Mom, come this way. We should hide before Dad comes.

Mom, this way!

Let's go to the master bedroom!

(Disaster alert: Jinyang-gun is declared as a state disaster area.)

What's going on?

What are people in here going to do?

No one can go in or come out.

- Understood, sir. - Okay, good.

A state disaster area?

Darn it. What is going on?

I think we're screwed.

Everyone.

Everyone, please don't panic.

We all got a disaster alert,

which means the government knows about the issue.

We should just keep calm and wait.

It's just a disaster.

Jinyang-gun will be okay.

Look. The news report says they're blocking Jinyang-gun.

Blocking?

The government declared Jinyang-gun as a state disaster area,

where it had black rain.

According to National Institute of Environmental Research,

the black rain might contain components used in chemical weapons.

The chemical components in the rain seem to be related...

- to fatal incidents yesterday. - Let there be the mercy.

Take a look at this.

What is...

The sealing is gone!

- How is this... - What should we do?

Salut! Hello, everyone.

Well.

What's going on?

Who are you?

Do you have a girlfriend?

Why do you ask me that? Just go back.

You cannot enter.

My wife...

lives at the entrance of Jinyang-gun.

She's weak.

You can't go in. You should go back!

Please. I'll be fast.

Jinyang-gun is blocked completely. You can't go in.

If it's an emergency,

shouldn't we be able to bring our families out from there?

You should allow us to do that.

It's a guideline from the government. Go back.

The guideline from the government?

- I beg of you. - What are you doing?

Make the cars turn around.

This man's family is inside.

You must be the man in charge.
