Are you a detective now?

Idiot.

God...

What the hell is this?

What's this, huh?

Why did you do this?

You're the class president.

Step up.

Bend over.

Remove your hand.

Don't move.

Why would you do that?

Don't you move!

A Letter of Apology

Guro Industrial Complex

Seoul, 1991

We should get more drinks.

Let's go.

How about 'Can't Get Over You'?

What?

It sounds so corny.

But it's a nice place.

No, why don't we go to

some bar and get cold beer.

But I want some milk.

Fresh milk.

What? You know each other?

Since when you're a regular?

You're such a naughty man.

Hey, come on in.

Come on.

You liked Myung-hee, right?

But don't hate

my big brother too much.

Me, neither.

I heard that he insisted

till the end that he didn't do it.

Who believes someone

with a mental disease?

Don't hate Dong-sik, either.

Why would I hate him?

Right, you're friends.

Is it because I'm a bar girl?

No, that's not it.

Hey, stop right there!

Let me go!

Don't move, a**hole!

Let me see.

You were the class president

of Samduk Middle School.

You lent Myung-hee your

umbrella on the day she died.

How come you don't

remember, smart ass?

Now you're the head of

Worker Student Solidarity.

You're keen on leading, don't you?

You'd be doing some

important sh*t one day.

What's this?

Hey you!

You don't give a damn, do you?

Back to where you were!

Back to where you were!

When I first came,

I was standing at the door

for 3 days.

I guess we're living in

a better world now.

You must be a student.

I started college in 1970.

You're a college student?

Anyway, he's in the real world

now since he's here, right?

Right.

Can't you see that everyone's waiting?

Introduce yourself.

My name is Seung-ho Lee

and I'm a labor activist.

What did you say?

Look at this f***er.

Can you believe it? You don't know

how to introduce yourself properly?

Nice skin though.

Did you have some fun

at school, a**hole?

Want to punch me?

Look at him shivering.

You think we're a bunch of idiots?

Even the guards don't touch

student prisoners these days,

but we're different.

Youngest?

Yes!

Beat him up!

You motherf***er!

Now it's time you can't avoid

while at this prison.

Who is your first love?

Let's give him a big hand!

Was she pretty?

Yes, she was.

He said she was pretty.

So you slept with her?

I think he was a f***ing nerd.

You're the one who failed to

rape a middle aged woman.

Right?

Then what f***er did

she end up with?

She died.

I'll kill you

if you're making things up.

Hey you!

Throw it away quickly.

Run.

Kyung-sik?

Seung-ho?

They're from the same town.

That's funny.

A lifer for rape

and a student activist.

Seung-ho's cell chief

is also from Samduk.

It's like a reunion for

Samduk people.

That's right.

Things are going well for you?

Kyung-sik, here's a newcomer.

I've never expected to see you.

What did you do to Myung-hee?

You think so, too?

You mean you didn't do it?

Who's gonna believe me?

Are you sure?

You really didn't do it?

Visitor:
Dong-sik Moon

How did you know that I'm here?

You can't hide from me.

Everyone in Samduk knows that.

Really?

It is sort of a school, isn't it?

You still sail?

Only when I'm out of money.

Did you see your brother?

I don't have a brother.

What if he didn't do it?

Let me ask you one thing.

Did you go to see her that day?

Why do you ask that?

Just answer me.

Let me ask you one thing too.

Did you go to see her?

There...

Dong-sik was here.

Have you visited you?

No.

Did you know that

he liked Myung-hee?

You didn't?

And he wanted to

meet her that evening.

I really hope that

you're not the murderer...

Move your f***ing ass!

Bring it quickly.

Okay.

Bring it.

You mean this, a**hole?

What?

You think you're something

because our chief likes you?

Moron.

What the f***?

I really hate people like you.

What I hate most is

f***ing rapists.

What did you say?

Are you f***ing out of mind, huh?

You want to die?

I'll kill you if you

mess with me again.

He's f***ing crazy.

Beat him to death!

He's f***ing crazy.

Beat him to death! Kill him!

Stop!

You go to a solitary cell

when you fight at lunch hour.

Damn...

I can't even eat properly.

Back to where you were.

Lunatics like him should be

in a mental hospital.

fine for 2 years.

I got set up by the police.

Seung-ho, I didn't like her

to be cold.

I just wanted to cover

her with a blanket.

But they said

she was removed first.

She was smiling at me.

I'm so sorry, Seung-ho.

No, I'm sorry to Dong-sik.

I don't know whom

I should say sorry to.

I really didn't know that

Dong-sik liked her.

Seung-ho, Seung-ho!

Seung-ho!

Seung-ho!

Seung-ho!

Hey, pull it!

Keep up with me.

For God so loved the world,

that He gave His only begotten Son.

You are my Gods

and I will give you thanks.

We hope that

every brother here

to share glory

and joy of Christmas.

We pray in the name of

our Lord Jesus Christ to God.

Amen.

One of our inmates... Kyung-sik Moon

made this to thank you.

Thank you.

Oh my god! Thank you, Jesus.

Do you like it?

Of course.

Glad to hear that.

Seung-ho, say hello to this lady.

He's given a Christmas pardon.

Please pray for him.

How grateful you must be.

Our Jesus has given you

the best gift ever.

Wait...

Why Kyung-sik is not here?

Where's he?

I think he's in the workroom.

Get him quickly.

He's worked so hard for today.

Okay, ma'am.

Hey, Kyung-sik!

Hey!

For 3 days you and Kyung-sik

were in the workroom,

excluded from all other work.

What happened during the time?

We're too busy to finish our job

on time and that was it.

Then what about the milk?

It's yours.

He said he was hungry so...

Cut the bullshit.

Did you fight?

Answer me!

Warden!

What?

Take a look.

To. Seung-ho

I'd be someplace else

by the time you read this.

Contact the family.

Yes, sir.

Seung-ho.

Please take care of Dong-sik.

But he disappears

without a word.

You were always together

back then.

I know.

It's so strange.

I used to...

hate my big brother.

But it's sad.

Even though he was

a murderer and...

You're...

not getting married?

I don't know.

F***, f***!

I was proud when I was with you.

You were good looking,

a good student,

and from a good family.

But why did you like

someone like me?

Because we were similar.

You know what?

What?

We shouldn't meet any more.

Crazy bastard.

How did he die?

I'm just curious. That's all.

He put cyanide into milk.

Boshin-dong, Dongducheon 1997

Umbrella! Umbrella!

Umbrella!

It's rainy

David

Give me yellow one!

Yellow my ass. Speak Korean!

Anyway, rumor has it that

you're going to the US.

Oh, really?

Wake up, okay? Going there

doesn't solve everything.

Thank you.

Probational Prosecutor Seung-ho Lee

I hope I'm not the only one

who's brought home computer.

You're not our staff yet.

But I'm a trainee.

We have an extra but it's 286.

Where's the internet line?

Can't use it, either.

Why not?

Due to a security reason.
