It seems so Oh... -Let's go -"Shine youth, brighter than a star" Whew... Oh -"Getting started is half the battle" -"Getting started is half the battle" Hey We're halfway there That's right, we're halfway there Yes [Getting started is half the battle] Want to stop halfway there today? "Want to stop halfway there today?" That kind of makes sense Even being here at this hour annoys me What time did the other guys get here? Around 7 or 8 pm? They probably got here when it was still dark I don't know Oh... -Who's there? -What? Pardon? What's this? Oh, hello Oh... When that person... Those men said, "Who's there?" Whoa Oh, come on... Oh, come on I totally agree with what VERNON just said -Right?! -Yes I told you It's not the thing itself that is scary It's the reaction of the other members that scares you Wow, I can't believe it's even raining -Exactly -Seriously But it's kind of romantic Is this the place? -I don't think so -It is It is? Is this it? They say it is Next to the church This is the church? Is this a church? Yes, it's a church, a person... It says there's a person at the church Point it at the church -Right? -Yes There's a person on the spire -Oh, so this is how it's going to be -Yes -Hello, everyone, right now -Oh... Oh... We're at an abandoned house that's apparently haunted Yes -We're going to see if we can find any ghosts -Right now... If I film with this Did you see that ghost just now? Yes, yes, it says there are ghosts here If we point the camera at objects they register as ghosts sometimes If you point it there, it's registering the church spire as a ghost -It has the form of a person -Mmm But what we're looking for today are real ghosts Oh, it says that you're a ghost Heh You just got a text A text? -Yes, a text -I just heard a ding I also got a text What is this? But we didn't see any villagers Ask DINO... Oh, I got a response, I got a text "Don't trust the villagers"? Why say that all of a sudden? Hey, for DINO to... text us that When are we going to head inside? -Let's head in -Let's go Come on -Where is the entrance? -Hold my hand Do we go in from there? In there? Maybe it's that door This one? -It must be over there -I said that I'd probably lose my way Where is it? Shouldn't the cameraman go in first? You should get in front of us to film us You need to film our faces -From the back... -I'm sure there are cameras inside -The GoPros will get us from the front... -Exactly I'm sure there are cameras inside Okay, I'm starting from here Is this the right place? Here? Oh... This is scary -I'm scared, yes... -Knock knock -Please excuse us -Please excuse us Let's go, huh? Oh, it's locked Let's try opening it -It won't open, it won't -WOOZI, get the hammer on the ground The hammer on the ground?

This is the place -Is it obviously there? -It's here Here, here... Right? They said to pass there -And there would be a house so this is it -This is it, it is Finding this place was so difficult Oh... Was all of this set up for us? Or do you think it was already here? I think it was already here Seriously... -Maybe we should say hello first -Sure When you visit an abandoned house Because you never know who might be inside -You need to knock first -That's a good concept you have going -Yes -You're good at really getting into it This is what you need to do Because you're super into it you actually seem less scared What's our team name again?

Does it not work? Oh no... My bag... Oh? -Nice -It works Oh? Nice Hehe It's kind of cute What should I write? -My real name or? -Just...

There -Yes, there, there -Okay, okay -Let's go -Then -Let's leave that here -Yes, then...

This is scary What? What's going on? So, his name is Kim Mansu And a murderer... -Named Ko Sungil? -Yes Ko Sungil... Even his name sounds scary -Is he from the Jeju Ko family? -What is this? We just came to see an abandoned house Wow... I shouldn't be making jokes like that No, we're here... as ghost hunters Are we ghost hunters? Anyway, we've already gotten good footage -Yes -That will get us lots of views Ko Sungil? Ko Sungil -If we capture Ko Sungil on camera we'll get the most views for sure, right? -Yes Hey, WOOZI? Hmm? Will we be able to make it out alive? WOOZI... WOOZI WOOZI! Hey What? Where are you going? -Why didn't you answer me?! -What? There was rain falling from the ceiling This is so annoying Your reactions were just amusing Why don't we just run? -Run from here? -Yes After all, we're not the only ones filming today -Oh, well... -There's blood on the floor Yes Oh... WOOZI, you shouldn't go through other people's stuff like that Haa... I don't get why we have to do all of this... I really don't understand Oh? Hey, we need to run away -Why? -He said he had a brother, right? But there isn't one There's no brother -He doesn't have a brother -He doesn't The door is locked -Hey -What? The door is locked He said that he has a brother but he doesn't No... He doesn't have one Then, that means... He... He's been lying to us WOOZI? Yes? I think I found some evidence What? People... The addresses of the villagers Addresses? Oh -But do you know what's scary about this? -What? "Moved on the 23rd" And then "Ko Sungil out from prison" Mmm -They're probably all related, right? -Yes What could it be? Oh, I found it What did you find? Something newsworthy Let's try to match things up So that's why we needed this "A random crime, a psychological mystery" Wow... "Claims of seeing someone eating human flesh as a child"? What? This is so annoying "A man in his forties in the mountains" "A man and woman" "Bodies were discovered" Someone's coming Where did you find this? Oh... Is it maybe SEUNGKWAN? Shouldn't we ask him to save us? Let's check out the house first Is it this one? -Yes -SEUNGKWAN! Yeah?! Save us! What? Does the door open? What's going on? I don't think it opens Hey, there's blood here Is that blood? -But I don't think we should open it -Does it open? It opens It opens from the outside Come in, come in, come in come in, come in I feel like we shouldn't open it Are you okay? -Is this the abandoned house we were talking about? -Oh... No, no You haven't been there yet? We met this person... -We met this person... -Did you find something? We met this person here Okay -And he said that all of the villagers are strange -Okay And he said... "Come inside my house for now" That way, we could leave safely What, what, what? And? So we could leave safely Okay But why did you ask us to save you? -So we walked inside -Yes -That... That way is blocked -You walked inside And, and? Why is it so cozy here? That person must live here But then, he took VERNON with him He said all of the villagers are crazy and strange He said he'd find a way out for us -And told us to wait here... -He told us to wait here and that person He needed someone to help him so he took VERNON with him -He said the villagers are strange? -Yes -So he said he would save us -He pretended to be normal -But he's the strange one? -He said... According to him he has an older brother And his brother was released from prison But we found out that the culprit wasn't his older brother He said everyone living here is strange... He said everyone living here and the town itself was strange then said he would help us escape and left to clear a path But we looked around the house and there's no older brother in the photos -There are only three people in his family photos -Just three, there's no older brother It's either him or... He's lying about something right now -And... -We met someone on our way up here -Okay -Her husband? Her husband is... Her husband came up here to find the people visiting the abandoned house but he disappeared And then there's a murderer called Ko Sungil -Ko Sungil, that's his older brother's name -Ko Sungil, yes Yes Why are you so calm right now? Doesn't that mean VERNON is missing? VERNON... Well... VERNON went with him to help -But we don't know what's the truth and what's a lie -Yes, that's right It could really be that the villagers are the bad people or he could be the bad person Yes, but either way this is a really strange place to be -This town is so strange -"Parents"? Wait "Mr. Ko's trial took place" We felt it on the way up here but this whole town is strange -Mr. Ko killed his parents -Yes "The two victims..." Wait We were told this same story He killed his family and that lady was there at the scene of the crime -But... -It says he eats people -Yes -He's a cannibal There's a letter here A diary, a diary -Let's read it -Okay "August 15th, my first plan failed" "And I spent 20 years of my life" "in a room so small I could touch the walls with my arms spread out" -He's talking about the prison -It's a letter he wrote in prison What if that man is Mr. Ko? Mr. Ko... I think he is -I think he is -Ko Sungil Yes He said he was sad that he couldn't enjoy the taste of meat That man is Ko Sungil He said, "Do people know how tasty meat is?" Ugh If his brother is the one who was released from prison, where is he? -I don't think it's an older brother -Yeah, I think it's him -He said he's the younger brother, right? The brother of that man? -Yes "Of all the different meats I've tried none has been tastier than that of a human" -Then... -Keep reading it Anyway, I think we need to find VERNON and get out of here But... Mmm... It's taking too long, isn't it? VERNON? "I'll be leaving soon" "This could be my last chance" "I can't make the same mistake I did before" "I've imagined it countless times..." -"Everyone will get a taste of it" Wow... -So, he's going to kill them all He's going to kill them all... Do we need to find a body, then? Should we open the fridge? Where is it? -It's in the kitchen -The kitchen? -Let's get moving -And here It says, "October 25th Ko Sungil leaves prison" What's the date... What if that's today? Who does this note belong to? It was here, and all of this was here as well -It has the numbers of all the people -Yes It says, "Homae, third road" It's referring to this village He wrote down the names of all the people who moved out of this road And when they moved out People are divided into those who moved and those who didn't -Whether it's to just check on them or to kill them -But But the strange thing is would he really write his own name down for "Ko Sungil leaves prison" like that? -That's what I thought, too -I also found that strange I'm still not sure of anything right now -He could really be trying to help us -That's what I was thinking, too But why would he lie and say it's his older brother? That's true, that's also a mystery Right now I do get the feeling that it's actually him Do you know what day it is? It was discovered on July 19th And it's been around ten days since they died So they died around July 9th, right? You haven't tried opening the fridge, right? No, not yet I'll open it Got a sentence of 20 years What year was this? October... October So a year later... 20 years later... October 25th... That's the date he leaves prison? That was back in 2003 so he's out already... He was sentenced to 20 years on October 25, 2003 He was released on October 25th He was released, then it's been three or four days now -He's out, he's out -Mmm Yes, he was released That means he's the murderer and we need to go and save VERNON Yes -How do we do that? -That's why that lady... What? I think this is human flesh -What? -Really? No way -I can't look at it -Ugh It is -You're right -Ugh -Wow -It is, it is -It has a bloody smell to it -Put it down... Stop! What's that? Ko Sungil has been released from prison We were locked in here, but you opened it Shouldn't we go look for VERNON now? Yes, I think that's the way to go -Let's go -That's why that lady asked us to find Ko Sungil... -Ko Sungil is... -Kim, Kim Mansu... -We need to find Mansu -He must have tied them up somewhere -That man -She can't reach him This is so annoying I'm glad that we at least met you guys Let's take the diary with us I think there's a message in this diary Or is it just telling us that he's the murderer? Let's take it with us, just in case Will we be able to save VERNON? How long has it been? -Leaving him behind doesn't seem like a bad idea either -It's been a long time No -JIHOON -Be quiet -JIHOON -Be quiet, be quiet Can't you hear something? No -JIHOON -I only heard some rustling Should we head down? Let's go But we need to save VERNON This is what I think -We already know how cruel that man is -Yes The odds of VERNON still being alive... Want to head to the church? Let's not split up -SEUNGKWAN -Yes? What? What? Is that place locked? What if VERNON is in there? Maybe not Earlier... I feel like there's something we need to solve -Finding VERNON is our first priority -Yes, yes, yes -So let's head down -So I wanted to see... You want to head down? I wanted to see if it was locked I can go and check out the church -Alone? -Yes Sure, go ahead -I don't think there's anything there -Don't go, don't go alone -I didn't see anything -You're fearless -You'll disappear if you go alone -Yes Or split into pairs Oh... Wow, this is the real deal First, wow... It's dark His brother was misunderstood and the villagers put all the blame on him, right? Yes, so... Wow... That car... Hey That truck... This is so scary I hate this -Wow, this is legendary -Wow... A reservoir? Wow... -Did VERNON go this way? -Yes -I don't know, but I think this is the only option -So he just took VERNON? Do we have to go down this way? -Down there? -Let's head down I think this is the only way to go Hey, there's something inside Haa... I think this is the right place Yes WOOZI, don't go alone Whoa Oh... -Be careful -I can't see anything without a flashlight Hey, WOOZI, want me to give you mine if you're leading the way? -You don't have to, but -Wow... Wow... Hey, this is crazy It's all water from here -I don't think this is it -I don't think it's it -Hey, wait -Let's head back -Let's go, let's head up -VERNON -There's nothing here, let's go -Let's just... Let's head up -Go up? -Let's head up, head up I'm scared Oh, the lights are on Huh? Wow, wow, wow... -There's someone there -Huh? -Huh? -Wow We're in big trouble Hey -Wait -This is crazy -We're done for -Ko Sung... VERNON must be dead already Hey! [Grudge] [This footage was recovered from a memory card found in the mountains near Homae Village in October 2023] The police believe that Mr. Ko held a grudge against the townspeople who reported him 20 years ago [TV reporter] and carried out this act... However, all of the bodies discovered ["While visiting an abandoned house" Male YouTubers in their twenties pass away] [Three days after psychopath murderer Ko Sungil was released from prison] are of men in their twenties The police have yet to find bodies of any villagers yet After the incident, posts that were said [Radio broadcast] to have been written in the past by Mr. Ko himself have gained traction [A person was eating a person I don't know how I got back home] [They say once you eat human flesh you can never stop... Does that mean it's that good? I don't know] "Of all the different meats I've tried none has been tastier than that of a human" He said he was sad that he couldn't enjoy the taste of meat "Do people know how tasty meat is?" [I saw an article written about me It was laughable, they called me an animal] -"Everyone will get a taste of it" -So, he's going to kill them all He's going to kill them all [How to get the most delicious meat] [Muscles will contract more with increased fear and nerves] I'll clear a path so you can leave [So the way to get the best meat is to help them feel relaxed] Okay So will you wait here for just a moment? Yes, okay VERNON... The two men caught on the surveillance cameras are confirmed to have been visiting the town to film a video and based on the footage the police have announced plans to open an investigation into Mr. Ko Wow... Wow, this won't be easy for WONWOO and SEUNGKWAN as a pair WONWOO will pretend to be okay to protect SEUNGKWAN but he'll probably be scared too Do you think so?
