It's your fault.
[Jin-ok] You killed her.

[Jin-ok continues sobbing]
[theme music playing]
[intense choral music playing]
You really can't trust that announcement.
Are you gonna be okay?
Don't worry about me, I'll be all right.
We need to do something.
Thank you for giving me this.
May God bless you for all you've done for us.
I like Buddha.
[Jae-heon sighs softly]
We're gonna make sure to come back for you and get you all.
Don't promise me anything you can't keep.
[Du-sik] I think…
I should say farewell to you both now.
[Ji-su] Oh.
You know, someone once said to me,
even complete darkness disappears with the faintest light.
Is that person still alive?
I'm not sure. [chuckles]
So, uh…
can I go with the two of you?
I guess three is better than two. Right?
Of course.
[Du-sik] Okay then.
Go.
Go! All of you go.
Hyun-su, you will come back, okay?
[poignant music plays]
Okay.
Thank you so much for saving us.
Come on. We should get going.
We'll be back.
[propulsive music plays]
[Du-sik sighs]
Okay then…
what are we supposed to do now?
AUGUST 18, 2020 DAY 4 OF CONFINEMENT
I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS GLAD TO HEAR THE APARTMENT PA ANNOUNCEMENT
I WANTED TO GO AS SOON AS I HEARD HIM URGE US TO GO DOWN TO THE FIRST FLOOR
WE SHOULD GO DOWN FOR YU-RI'S SAKE
[Mr. An] Time to leave.
Not yet, okay?
You still have many happy years ahead of you.
[Mr. An] Uh, no, not…
this world. I meant, this tiny room.
It's so old and dirty.
[Yu-ri] But still younger than you, isn't it?
How long have you been here?
Let me check on that.
-Hold on. -[Yu-ri] Yeah.
[faint grunt]
Was it since the independence,
or the Korean War?
I have just extended your life.
[grunts]
I guess I won't die anytime soon, then. [inhales]
Mm.
[clears throat]
[Yu-ri] What are you doing?
I'm going downstairs.
To the first floor to help.
What are you gonna help with?
Mm.
[clattering]
[atmospheric music playing]
[sniffs]
Oh, it's just so sad.
If my Bom died,
I would be devastated, too.
I don't think that's really the same.
But it is so.
Bom is family to me.
Still, though.
It can't possibly be the same as losing your own child.
You don't have kids, either.
You wouldn't know what it's like.
Yeah.
[Hye-in] Anyway, I feel really bad for Ms. Cha.
And the firefighter lady.
What do you mean?
Her fiancée used to live here.
And then he just… He died.
-The wedding was set to be in two days. -[gasps] What happened?
I don't know. He just died.
He was gone. Just gone.
[sighs] She was just so…
poised.
[exhales]
What do you think is taking so long?
I hope nothing happened to her.

[Seok-hyeon] It says the cellphone's out of service.
Okay.
How did she know her daughter was coming over here?
It's a mystery.
Do you think she's infected?
Infected? No, just crazy.
I feel bad.
Anyway, you better watch out for Eun-hyeok.
That guy is one heartless fucker.
That's bullshit. He saved your life.
What are you saying?
If he hadn't stopped you,
you'd be like that soldier.
[laughs] Oh, Seok-hyeon.
It's great to have you as our fearless leader.
Leader, my ass. I don't want that job!
Seok-hyeon, you can't abandon us.
[creaking]
[door closes]
[atmospheric music plays]
[pants softly]

You okay?
[Eun-hyeok groans]
You knew there was…
a monster down there.
Yi-kyung?
Where have you been? I was so worried.
Are you okay?

[man] This is not a drill. This is not a drill.
I repeat, this is not a drill.
BREAKING NEWS
As of midnight, August 17th, 2020, martial law has been declared
throughout the Republic of Korea, in accordance with Article 77,
of the Constitution and Article 2, of the Martial Law Act.
The military will be in charge of all security and all civil affairs.
[woman] The military has confirmed that an unspecified number of people
have been turning into strange creatures.
The exact cause is still unknown,
but it is believed to be related to human desire.
It is not a respiratory or blood-borne infection.
Quarantine those who show symptoms,
nosebleeds, fainting, and auditory or visual hallucinations.
These creatures have excellent resilience and regenerative abilities.
Before a person turns, there is a period of time
when they can't recover from lacerations or damage.
It is the only time these creatures can be killed.
Thus, we have named this the "golden hour."
All captured creatures
need to be incinerated.
Currently, this is the only action civilians can take.
-[beeping] -[helicopter whirring]
The military can and will solve the current situation.
Survive out there.
And good luck to us all.
Hey, look. We're okay.
The military will rescue us if we hold out.
-I knew they'd save us. [laughs] -She just said we're on our own!
-What? That's what she said? -Desire makes you a monster?
-What does that mean? -You saw them roaming.
-[Jae-hwan] So? -Uh, but she…
That's what she meant. She said there on the television… I mean… I mean…
-[man] The president died? -That's not what she said.
-[Hye-in] Of course. -[Jae-hwan] What do you mean hold out?
-[Byeong-il] We saw it. -[Seok-hyeon] I believe the lady on TV.
[clattering]
[clattering continues]
[grunts] Seriously?
Can we go downstairs like this?
-[Jae-heon] We need more useful things. -We are the useful things.
It's a person.
Strange to see them like this.
He's still warm.
Hasn't been dead for long.
Oh, God.
Put it back if you don't want it.
You're cold.
So what if that's true?
I do worse to survive. And I suggest you do the same.
You're one of us now.
[Jae-heon] Let's go.
[whoosh]
-[thud] -[whoosh]
[screams]
[tense music plays]
[sobbing]
Why'd you die? Why did you die?
Why did you leave me alone?
[Hyun-su] Why did you do it?
[sobbing] Why?
MOON HYEON-SUK, CHA SU-A
-[Eun-yu] Is he dead? -[Eun-hyeok] No.
He isn't dead.
I thought he'd die.
-Do you know him? -[Eun-yu] I don't think so.
-[Eun-hyeok] Don't go near him. -[chilling music plays]
-[man] We can't leave the infected here. -[woman] Take the monster out.
[breathing heavily]
[Hyun-su] No…
[panting]
[Eun-yu] You really fell.
[gasps]
I could've sworn, I told you not to die here.
Where am I?
[Eun-yu chuckles]
[Eun-yu] The place we all gather around and wait to die.
And the other two?
They're okay.
[sighs]
[Eun-yu] I guess you're not an asshole, then.
You should worry more about yourself.
Huh?
[Eun-hyeok] Eun-yu.
Are you okay?
You passed out after you fell down from the 9th floor.
Golden hour saved you. Did you know that?
Isn't it ironic? Golden hour used to mean that…
it was the last hour you're able to save someone's life, you know?
Are you okay?
Yeah, I think I'm okay.
Okay.
It's going to be tough from now on.
[woman] It's so dark.
[Seung-wan] Why did he call us?
Come on. Keep going.
You're all out of your mind.
You brought a monster in here.
Don't you dare turn.
[crackles]
Got it? You crazy monster.
Or I'll slice your throat myself.
Okay.
-What you say? -We can't just do that.
We can't miss golden hour.
The Lord said you--
I'm sure Jesus never lived in a world like this, did He?
It's for all our safety.
Here.
What's that?
Everyone please grab a piece of paper.
If you think we should expel Hyun-su, then go ahead and draw a circle.
[Eun-hyeok] And if you don't think we should, draw an X.
Then put the paper in this box.
Obviously, he'll be kicked out. Why bother?
Raise your hand. I want him out.
Hands up. Hands up!
Raise your hand, you cow.
[Eun-yu] Well, I don't.
You're way too young to vote.
So, this is official?
Age doesn't matter.
How dare you talk back to me?
[Seok-hyeon] When an adult speaks, you should listen.
FUCK BASTARDS LIKE YOU
Did you swear at me?
If I was your dad, I'd give you a good old-fashioned beating!
I didn't.
I said you're cool.
FUCK BASTARDS LIKE YOU
[gunshot]
[Eun-hyeok] To protect everyone's privacy, it must be a secret ballot.
What?
Because expelling him…
would be like taking part in murder.
[tense music plays]
[scoffs]
Privacy? No way, man.
I want him out. Hands up!
It's not murder.
We're doing this to survive.
Don't be scared now!
You, raise your hand.
-[Seon-yeong] Uh, well… -I told you to raise your hand.
I think Eun-hyeok has a point.
Isn't it better to protect the privacy of our votes?
Last time I checked, we still live in a democracy.
A democracy? The world is ending!
Stop calling your wife names,
and using profanities.
It's offensive.
You cow.
-How dare you tell me what… -[Yi-kyung] Stop it.
[tense music]
[Myeong-suk humming]
[ominous music]
[clattering]
[sloshing]
[knife slashing]
IN FAVOR, 8
OPPOSED, 7
Eight of us voted yes, and seven voted no.
If one of the last two ballots is in favor, he'll be kicked out.
Seven people opposed?
Are you all crazy?
Opposed.
Eight to eight.
[pants] Damn it.
It was you.
Uh, no, I didn't.
All the bitches and bastards on his side
-should be thrown out! -Will you calm the fuck down?
[Eun-hyeok] Don't get worked up yet.
The last vote here will determine the result.
[tense music plays]
Invalid.
[sighs]
[gasps]
Oh, no way.
Hey. Hey!
-Bring that bastard here! -You mean me?
Yeah! We have to get rid of him!
Voting, my ass.
Ha. Are you all crazy?
Did you forget that someone just died?
Are you against the result?
What?
You don't know squat.
[Seok-hyeon] Murder is killing a human being,
not killing a giant fucking monster!
[grunts]
[sloshing]
[ominous music]
[whimpers]
[Seon-yeong] Honey.
Honey? [gasping]
-Honey? -[Seung-wan] Oh, my gosh. Oh, my goodness!
[Seok-hyeon gasps]
[Seok-hyeon] This is…
-Don't come near! -It's because I'm tired.
[clamoring]
It's because I'm tired!
[man] Get back!
Hmm?
You better brace yourself.
[Seok-hyeon] What? [mumbles]
The monsters are coming for you.
You son of a bitch!
[Hyun-su] Can I cast my vote?
[sloshing]
[grunting]
If I put this in, he'll be thrown out too, right?
Am I right?
[whimpering]
[thuds]
But he just looks like a kid.
A handsome one.
Didn't you see how much he was bleeding over there?
You can't judge someone by their looks.
What if we shoot him in the head?
[Jae-hwan] Can we kill him then?
-Can we? -How can you…
-Did you vote in favor? -[Jae-hwan] Mm.
You are all murderers.
[sighs] If he turns into a monster, will you leave him there?
[Seung-wan] Why this is happening?
-[Jae-hwan] Because of a virus? -[Hye-in] It's radiation.
Come on. Didn't you watch the news?
[Byeong-il] It's because of human desire.
Ah. Well, it must be because he's very greedy.
Yeah, but what about Hyun-su?
What was his desire then?
You better be careful, too, all right?
It seemed to me you were getting quite hungry.
-It is the radiation. -[Jae-hwan] Radiation?
We're being punished.
This must be God's punishment.
Hmm. Ah, yeah.
[Eun-yu] That's the best answer I've heard so far.
Since we're all humans,
nobody knows…
who the next one will be.
Well.
[ominous music]
[gasps]
What?
Why am I…
[panting]
[Hyun-su] You had a nosebleed.
I think it's pretty obvious.
Uh…
No way. [panting]
Why me?
[sobs]
I know… [panting]
that you're holding out.
How so?
Huh?
You're shameless.
[gulps]
Please help me. I want to live.
I can't help you.
Why?
I have nothing else to say to you.
[whimpering]
[Hye-in] It's okay. Don't you think?
He beat you up every day.
What? Did I do something wrong?
Okay. Divorces are in.
You have a new life.
Huh? What? Am I wrong?
Hey.
I can't find Su-ung.
[gasps] Oh, no.
[Hye-in] I guess you haven't heard.
Ms. Cha's daughter
actually tried to make it in here.
Su-ung…
went to rescue her.
He barely took a few steps and…
[imitates whooshing]
[poignant, atmospheric music plays]
[Yi-kyung] We are stuck in here.
GREEN HOME HAIR SALON
SANG-WON
Sang-won…
[phone ringing]
Here you are.
Thought you might want some, my dear.
[Seon-yeong grunts]
Thanks for this.
You're welcome. It'll cheer you up.
Oh.
I'm so sorry I looked.
Eat up.
[retches]
What?
What's the matter? What's wrong?
It tastes okay.
I feel nauseous.
[Seon-yeong] Oh, dear.
[poignant music plays]
Your daughter's very pretty.
You have so many great pictures of her.
I only took a few myself.
[Ji-su] That's what I regret.
He was such a good person.
[wrapper rustles]
You need to have energy to miss someone.
[sniffles]
[clanks]
-[Ji-su screams] -[laughs]
-Shut up. -Yeah?
You should quit music and become a comedian.
Okay, why don't you teach me then?
First, uh, relax your body.
[boyfriend] Spread your legs.
Keep your hands together.
And look at the ball.
[grunts]
[scoffs]
[Ji-su's boyfriend] That was nice.
[water splashing]
[poignant music continues]
[Eun-yu] Why are you acting like you're so nice?
Do you think a frigging chocolate bar is going to suddenly cheer her up?
[scoffs]
I think you're giving yourself too much credit.
So, you're the crazy bitch here?
Watch your back, crazy bitch.
[gasps]
[Eun-yu scoffs]
[snickers]
He won't die?
[chuckling]

Hi.
Yeah, it's me, asshole.

I… I…

I'm turning into a monster.
[panting]
Please lock me up.
Hi. When did you get here? [chuckles]
Did you hear what they said on the news?
It's not infectious. [giggles]
We're still screwed, though,
because everything's fucked.
[scoffs]
You asshole.
Ooh, boy. You really got beat up.
-[Jae-hwan] He wanted to be locked up. -Why did it happen to such a good man?
Jeez, if you feel that bad for him, why don't you just join him in there?
What happened to you?
[scoffs]
Oh, jeez!

[Yun-jae] You must be hungry.
No, thank you.
Why?
A monster can't eat?
You sleep well, though.
What's it been like?
It's great, isn't it? [chuckles]
How can I become you?
[ominous music]
Tell me now.
[chuckles]
I need to know.
[Yun-jae] I can do it well.
Wha… What should I do?
[Yun-jae grunting]
[tense music playing]
[Seon-yeong] Here you go.
You should take this.
PREGNANCY TEST
No way.
Do it to be sure.
Okay?
Hmm?
[atmospheric music playing]
[Jae-heon sighs heavily]
[Jae-heon] Amen.
It was your voice, huh?
"The first floor is now safe."
Yeah.
Did I hear you wrong?
Hey, that shield.
Who made it?
[spraying]
Um…
Excuse me.
What?
Ms. Im…
still hasn't come out of the bathroom.
You need to go?
Just wait a sec.
It's been over an hour.
All right, then, kid. Step aside.
