Apt (아파트)

Lee's room was the same as other students' rooms...

...in which he stayed for 4 years. That secluded life left him...

...long hair up to his waist.

He didn't show his face during the meeting.

You'll feel stuffy...

...if you're in a room for a long time.

I prefer being in my room.

Are you nervous when you go out?

I have no goal so I'm wandering.....

I don't like talking with people I prefer to stay home.

Apt (9.56)

It's been a long time to go out, right?

Isn't it good?

Soo-min, this seems to be wrong. Wait a sec.

That fabric has to come out more this way.

Ask for another fabric instead.

Try to find more. -Sure.

Look for a more similar color.

Move it that way a bit more. -This way?

Yes, to the left more. -Yes.

Looks fine.

Let's finish the rest tomorrow.

Well done, everyone. -Thank you.

Miss Oh.

Sure this will be okay? But it's Christmas season.

You mean stuff like...

...Christmas trees, Santa and Rudolph?

I wouldn't have taken this work if I were to do it typically.

See you tomorrow.

Hello? - Miss Oh.

You should come to the shop.

What happened?

The manager is looking for you.

I understand.

Miss Oh Sae-jin!

Being with family or your lover is Christmas.

It's warm, cozy, joyful, and exciting.

Who'd feel like buying with such a crappy show window?

You agreed with me about this concept.

We haven't even started selling yet,...

...so how can you be so sure it's crappy?

I'll take responsibility if profits fall.

What?

Aren't you lonely?

Pardon me?

I said, aren't you lonely?

Did she say anything else?

Let me check for the last time.

A woman who you haven't seen before...

...tried to commit suicide with you. Correct?

You can go now.

I'll call if we need more information.

At Hanul station in Seoul at 6:00 am, a 29 year-old woman...

...jumped in front of the subway train...

...and instantly lost her life.

A witness said that once the train entered the platform...

...she tried to grab a woman next to her,...

...and jump into the tracks with her.

The police are investigating the exact cause of the accident.

The police are also centering their case...

...on the double suicide attempt.

What are you doing now? Have you lost your mind?

Are you some kid? It.....

You're going to suffocate to death.

I've seen you run many times from upstairs.

It's as if you want to set a new world record every time.

And you look like you're being chased.

I do?

Aren't you lonely?

You seem to live alone.

I live alone, too.

Your parents.....

They passed away.

Isn't it hard for you?

The neighbours are very nice to me,...

...like family.

Match it up, when you want to forget something.

You can forget things momentarily.

Yoo-yeon!

I have to go.

Why are you here? You'll catch a cold.

What do you want to eat tomorrow?

How about steamed ribs?

Here, have some.

But I'm full.

You must eat.

I made it all for you.

Here, you must eat.

Good girl.

I don't need my kids and grandchildren anymore.

They abandoned me and immigrated.

You're much better than them.

I should move out of here. How many times has it happened now?

Just the other day, the guy in 1304.....

What are you all doing here? Mind your own business.

Go back to your home. This is outrageous.

Around 9:50 pm, in a flower garden to APT in Kang-nam Gu,...

...security guard found Kims dead body who had lived this APT.

And he reported it to police.

Several flowerpots on Kim's balcony.....

Room 1403.

Room 1304.

Room 1103.

At 9:56 pm.

The lights are turned off and a suicide.....

I want to see the sky.

Aren't you cold?

I felt stuffy inside.

All I can see are other apartments.

People on TV come to places like this...

...when something's on their mind and then look far away.

And while they smoke a cigarette.

I wanted to do the same thing.

There are so many apartments.

Could there be people out there who've met by chance like us?

If they're nice like you.

I'm not a nice person.

Hello? -Miss Oh Sae-jin?

It's all done. It's closed as a simple suicide case,...

...so I won't bother you anymore.

Detective Park.

These all the files for the Fortune Apartment case?

Yes.

They've been determined as suicides.

What's wrong?

Hey, neither the motives nor the circumstances are clear.

Never mind. I'll take care of it.

Then hurry up. The Chief keeps asking for back-up.

Why aren't you leaving?

You may not believe what I have to say,...

...but Fortune Apartments.....

All the lights were turned off at 9:56 pm.

I mean, the tenants simultaneously turn them off.

Then one of the tenants is found dead the next day.

What?

I know it's hard to believe, but it's true.

At 9:56 pm,...

...people turn off the lights as if they were possessed.

Don't you know that it's illegal...

...to spy on your neighbours with binoculars?

I know it sounds strange. But people are dying.

I'm being polite right now, aren't I?

Don't force me to get on my bad side.

This may sound strange,...

...but don't turn off your lights at 9:56 pm.

Take part in an energy-saving campaign?

Is that why you watch over the neighbours?

Don't think I'm being rude and all.

My teachers and other students always watch over me.

That's my life, so shouldn't I feel comfortable...

...at least at home?

And what do you want to see with your binoculars?

We've moved to the wrong place. -What?

Deaths at an apartment and now a psycho.

Psycho?

The woman who watches the neighbours on the other side.

She followed me and asked me...

...not to turn off the lights at night.

She did?

You might think that I'm insane if I tell you this,...

...but please don't turn off your lights after 9:56 pm.

Why?

Don't ask why. I beg you.

I appreciate your consideration for me.

I'm fine so you don't have to worry about me.

People worry about me meeting you.

They tell me not to get close to a stranger.

You're all that I have.

Everyone avoids me.

You like me, don't you?

If you happen to read this,...

...do not turn off your lights before 10:00 pm.

Going up.

Hello?

Hello? Is anybody there?

Is anybody out there?

The victim's name is Choi Min-suk. Age 24, college student.

He lived in room 1005.

As you stepped on the elevator, you heard someone fighting above.

Then you heard a scream with a big bang.

You looked and found a dead body.

Shouldn't your statement be something like this?

But you tell me someone dies after the lights turn off at 9:56 pm.

Does that make sense? -Isn't what I saw for real...

...a witness statement?

If you had listened to me from the beginning,...

...you could've saved at least one person.

Look here, Miss Oh.

Detective Yang! Aren't you coming?

Call me right away if you see anyone turn off their lights.

Otherwise I'll arrest you on aiding and abetting murder.

Yoo-yeon, it's me! Open the door!

Yoo-yeon, are you in there? Please open the door!

I told you not to turn off the light before 10pm!

Be quiet! -Yoo-yeon, open the door!

You're not the only one who lives here!

What's all this noise early in the morning!

Mister, you heard me, right?

Don't turn off the lights before 10pm.

Otherwise, you might die!
