The Cursed (The Method / Bangbeob / 방법)

I'm a performer of procedures.

A performer of procedures?

Chairman Jin Jong Hyun isn't human.

He's an evil spirit.

Please pull over.

Pull over, and talk to me.

How much did you get paid to write that?

Do you want to know who killed that whistleblower?

You, witch. It was you.

There's someone I really want to kill today.

I'll start now.

What is this?

He had a procedure done on him.

First, we must find out how the procedure was performed.

You!

My mom performed the possession ritual to him.

What is your name in Chinese characters?

Face, name written in Chinese characters,

and a personal item were used to cast a curse.

The one with the pen cap...

requested the procedure.

Doesn't this look familiar?

Where's the fountain pen cap?

Let's do it.

Let's do the procedure on Jin Jong Hyun.

You let him use his energy again last night, didn't you?

If you bring me one of Chairman Jin's items,

I'll give you another 1,000 dollars on the spot.

I got the item.

I'll pick it up and go to the orphanage.

I'll start now.

Die.

Die.

Die!

Something went wrong.

So Jin!

So Jin!

Those lowlives are looking for us, aren't they?

How did you get that lighter?

Who ordered you to do it?

Jin Hee, let's do a procedure on him.

I'll tell you! Stop it!

I'll tell you, darn it.

He did nothing wrong.

I have an idea.

We executed a search warrant on Jinkyung Corporation.

What is it? Why are you doing this?

Did you look into her?

How can I get revenge on her?

Do you want to do that? Forest of Curses.

Someone posted this with the hashtag "Forest of Curses".

She looks familiar to me.

I want to meet this girl So Jin in person.

A performer of procedures...

is right there.

Report everything Chairman Jin Jong Hyun...

and your shaman do to me every day.

If you leave anything out,

I will crumple up your arms and legs.

Why do you think they're doing such a big ritual?

We'll have to find that out.

Find out what those rats are up to.

This many came in?

So Jin, take a look at this.

Hello?

That's a list of foreign shamans that came to Korea yesterday.

Did this many people come in?

Yes.

Our shaman went around the world to find them.

All of them...

will perform a ritual together on the day of Forest's IPO.

With this many shamans,

their spirits will conflict.

It'll be hard to do one ritual together.

Are you saying all these shamans will perform one ritual?

That's how it may appear,

but they each have different roles, from what I understand.

I'm sure the other shamans will block bad fortune.

Then who is leading it?

Will your shaman do it?

I'm not sure yet. So...

Otomo Shogo will perform the main ritual

Otomo Shogo?

Yes.

He's famous. Everyone in this industry knows him.

He's known as an illustrator specializing in monsters in Japan.

An illustrator specializing in monsters?

He's known as an illustrator who draws Japanese ghosts,

but...

everyone in this field knows...

that he draws only what he has seen.

He...

will perform the ritual.

Mr. Otomo.

Welcome to Korea.

Jin Kyung.

Don't do things that will draw attention.

My apologies.

Anyway, where's the chairman?

He is staying home, avoiding all contact with others...

and is being cautious.

You fool.

You didn't prepare a separate place for him.

I knew you'd do this,

so I prepared a place for the chairman to stay.

Have him move there immediately.

Master.

Thank you so very much.

The ritual that you asked for...

is no ordinary ritual.

He must take the utmost care...

until the ritual is successfully completed.

Yes, sir.

Tell them of the location right now.

Yes, master.

Tell Mr. Lee the address they tell you right away.

Yes, ma'am.

This way, please.

What is the purpose of the ritual...

that person Otomo Shogo is performing?

I really don't know.

It's not something a peon like me can get involved in.

Then you should find out.

You should try harder.

You have a reason to, don't you?

Listen. I'm really doing my best.

I didn't sleep a wink last night.

Please.

Please.

Please let me live. Please?

More.

Try harder.

And let me know as soon as you have Jin Jong Hyun's personal item.

I'm losing my mind.

I'm starting...

to feel sorry for this guy.

Hey. - Hi.

Is everything okay? - Yes,

everything is okay.

Hi, So Jin.

How do you feel?

I'm fine.

Jin Hee.

Are you going somewhere?

Yes. I'm going to meet with a folklore professor.

I want to check what that item was...

that the shaman bought recently.

I'll go with you.

No. You should stay here.

It's safer here.

Do as she says, So Jin. Stay here.

It'll be easier if I go with you.

No, you shouldn't go out.

I'll call if anything happens.

Stay here, okay?

You can call me too. Bye.

I understand up to this, but what is it talking about?

Hold on. Maybe...

Maybe I'll look there.

Darn it.

Darn it.

Hello?

Joo Bong.

Did you put everything back?

Yes. I'm almost done putting back everything the police returned.

Is anything missing?

I'm not really sure.

They may have taken something small.

Ma'am.

I'm sorry.

What do you mean?

I...

All of your sacred items have been returned.

Then scurry over to the hotel.

I'll introduce you to Mr. Otomo.

You should meet him.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll do that.

Hurry over.

Do you have the talisman I got you?

What talisman?

From last time.

The phone with the tracking app.

That's what you mean.

This?

This isn't a talisman.

That's because you keep saying strange things recently.

Consider it a talisman,

and keep it on you at all times.

Don't turn it off. - Yes, sir.

I'll keep it safe way on the bottom of my bag.

Happy?

Jin Hee. I know that you are a passionate journalist,
