29 February Page #2

Synopsis: Ji-yeon, a tollgate ticket girl, is frightened by a mysterious black car, which hands over a bloodstained ticket as a fee at midnight. Her fear deepens after her colleague, Jong-sook, tells her that 12 years earlier a prisoner transport vehicle caused a traffic accident wherein all the prisoners involved died - and some of the corpses disappeared. Since then, a murder has occurred near the tollgate on February 29th, every four years. Soon, odd events become increasingly frequent, usually involving a doppelganger of Ji-yeon. When Jong-sook is killed on the fateful February 29th, Ji-yeon - with the help of two detectives - starts looking into matters herself.

on my neighbor's door for an hour.

That's strange

I didn't get any calls.

Will you please do something?

I can't fall asleep.

I'll check for you.

Han Jiyeon?

This is the police.

I need to ask you

about the murder at the tollgates.

Have you heard about it?

Yes.

We need to ask you

a few questions.

Do you remember this?

I heard it was you

who received this ticket.

Yes. It was me.

Do you remember the face of

that customer?

No. There was a blackout,

so I couldn't see anything.

I didn't know tollgates had blackouts.

What about the car?

Did you see what kind?

No. I just know it was black.

And you didn't get the license

plate number?

No.

I was too shocked

when I saw the blood.

Why didn't you call the police?

Because.

These things happen

often at tollgates.

That ticket was issued

from Dongseong Tollgates.

The time punched in the ticket

matches the time of the murder.

The lab is running the blood

through tests.

If it matches the blood of the victim,

we'll have a suspect.

Are you working late tonight?

Huh?

Yes.

It's not an easy job.

You should get some rest.

We'll come back

if we have anymore questions.

Good day.

You should be careful.

These cases usually turn out

to be serial murders.

And the killer is usually

among the people we first interview.

Thank you.

I'm not saying

that you're a suspect.

That's just what they teach us

at the police academy.

Good day.

First, she presses the call button

to page one of the employees.

An employee runs out

to help the customer.

The murderer then stabs the victim

with a sharp knife.

Blood spatters everywhere.

The ground gets covered in blood.

The murderer leaves quietly,

leaving the victim behind.

The victim dies in a slow

and painful way.

Anna?

Hey! Come to the first floor

of the building.

What are you talking about?

I just saw you walking by.

You're in a white jacket

with a butterfly pin.

No, You're mistaken.

Why are you trying to hide from me?

Let's have lunch with my boyfriend.

It's not me!

What's the matter?

Are you okay?

You saw someone else

That wasn't me you saw.

You look awful!

I barely got any sleep.

Did you hear about the person

who died at Dongseong?

It gave me the cold creeps.

Why does it have to be

a tollgate employee?

I'm too scared to go to work.

Are you sure there was

no blackout last night?

What if you were sleeping

and you didn't know?

Could be.

I remember it got dark for

a few minutes.

Oh!

Oh...

I guess it's already been 4 years.

Why?

Who is that?

Remember that murderer

who died in that burning bus?

That's her grandmother.

She's got Alzheimer's,

so she keeps looking for her.

Does she come here

every 4 years?

Isn't it ironic?

The day I was born was

the day she died.

Mr Kim!

Jiyeon and I want to take

a day off tomorrow.

Ma'am?

You can't stay there.

Ma'am?

It's too dangerous!

Hey, excuse me...

Show your ticket...

Why are you so jumpy?

Who left this here?

I'm scared enough as it is.

- Jongsook?

- Yeah?

About that curse...

What curse?

The February 29th curse?

What if that woman is still alive?

There was that murder

at the Dongseong Tollgate.

What if we're next?

Did you see her ghost?

Really?

Last night, she came...

You're kidding. Right?

That's just a stupid ghost story.

You should take some pills

to help you sleep.

Jiyeon? It's Inspector Park.

There's been another murder

at the Neunggok Tollgate.

The victim was murdered

in the same manner.

Did you happen to see

that car last night?

I don't remember

I was too tired last night.

You didn't get anymore tickets

with blood on them?

No.

The murderer had to have

used one of the exit tollgates.

But we can't look into

all the tollgates in the country.

The blood on the ticket was not

from the victim.

Then what was that car about?

Whose blood was it on the ticket?

There's something else.

What is it?

The computer had no record

of a blackout.

Jiyeon? What's going on?

I swear I'm not lying.

There was a blackout.

Look! Computers don't lie.

Think carefully.

Are you sure you didn't fall asleep?

Would you believe me

if I said there was a blackout last night?

That car was also there last night.

Do you know you can go to jail

for false testimonies?

I can't seem to see

the face of that person.

I don't recall anything

except the smell of something burning.

That's impossible.

Why haven't you seen his face yet?

I know one thing for sure...

There are deep scratches

on the woman's wrist.

But you haven't seen her face.

How would you know it's a woman?

I have an idea who it is.

Who is she?

It's the serial killer

who died several years ago.

That woman is still alive.

What?

She's been appearing everywhere

in the same clothes I'm wearing.

She's acting just like me!

She's been killing people

every February 29th!

Don't you see?

What's the date today?

February 29th.

Send this to the lab.

But sir.

And find out all you can

about that serial killer.

It looks like

schizophrenic symptoms.

A bad memory from dark is

influencing her to sleep.

It could be a form of insomniac that

usually happen to overly

anxious people.

First, you should take some sleeping pills

to help you fall asleep

and later get further

psychological treatments.

The bus which was going to jail

was overturned on a snowy road.

A condemned woman

was burned and died.

She had couple of suture surgery.

Jiyeon!

It took a while for me

to find this information.

Plus, I got stuck in traffic.

Do you recognize her?

Yes! It's her!

It's the woman

who was strangling me.

Are you sure?

It's her.

She came back from the dead

to kill more people?

Who's supposed to believe that?

She didn't come back from the dead.

She never died.

The police report says

she was burned to death in the fire.

No, I know she's alive.

We're not here

to investigate the past.

We're investigating into a murder

that's happening now!

You saw her strangling me!

Don't you care about my safety?

Fine! Let's say she's back.

Why would she kill the people

working at tollgates?

Serial killers don't need reasons.

They just kill.

All right.

Find out more about this woman.

Talk to the inspectors

who handled the case.

Yes, sir.

Who's at the tollgate today?

Inspector Kim.

All right.

Let's stop by to see him.

I need to check something out.

Jiyeon?

Are you going to work today?

No, It's my friend's birthday,

so I took a day off.

That's a rare birthday to have.

She only gets to celebrate it

once every 4 years.

Where's that ticket?

You said you saw it on the wall.

I don't know.

It's gone.

Yes.

Are you taking medication?

They're sleeping pills,

I haven't slept in 3 days.

It's no wonder,

since you see dead people.

Excuse me.

May I ask you for a favor?

Will you please walk me

to the parking lot?

I didn't know you went to church.

Chew on one of these

if you get sleepy.

Maybe you should go see a doctor.

I'm a professional,

I've done this for 10 years.
