The Host Page #2
Okay, the news...
...the news...
...isn't on now.
Sh*t!
Anyway...
...from this moment...
...you fall under our control...
...so start moving!
This is for your own safety.
We have...
...transport buses
waiting outside now.
Okay, please
move toward the buses...
...in an orderly fashion.
That's right.
Watch your children.
Oh, did anyone here touch
or come into...
...direct contact with the creature?
Um...
I didn't touch it.
But some of its blood got
sprayed in my face.
Don't move! Tell him to freeze!
Grab him! Grab that one!
Please remain calm, people.
What are you doing?
- My son didn't touch anything!
- Let's go!
Gang-du! Get out of there!
- Dad!
- Gang-du!
- Don't go!
- Dad!
Gang-du, don't worry.
I'm coming with you.
Stop there!
Hey, number 31! Stop!
This is a news flash.
It now appears that the creature,
which disappeared after its attack...
...on surprised park-goers today...
...is far more dangerous than
previously assumed.
U.S. Army Sergeant Donald White...
...who fought bravely
with the creature...
...and lost an arm in the process...
...is now undergoing treatment
at a U.S. Army hospital.
After a thorough examination...
...U.S. Army medical staff
have identified...
...an unknown virus,
primarily in body parts...
...that came into contact
with the creature.
The U.S. Army has shipped
a sample of the virus...
...to the U.S. Centers
for Disease Control...
...which confirmed that
the creature from the Han River...
...as with the Chinese civet wildcat
and SARS...
...is the host
of this deadly new virus.
All military units sent to pursue
and capture the creature...
...have been recalled
due to the risk of infection.
Only special forces trained
in biological warfare...
...and disinfectant units are allowed
access to the Han River area.
Damn...
...they made a fuss
dragging us in here.
What is this sh*t?
Where are all the guys in yellow?
Look.
The doctors aren't even
wearing masks.
Hello, sir.
When might we
be allowed to go home?
- You can't go home.
- What? We can't?
Dad, am I dying?
Don't say that!
Just do what the doctors tell you.
But, Dad,
my back feels itchy and weird.
Like something's moving.
It's a squirmy feeling,
like something's there.
It's because you never
take a bath, it's okay.
Attention! Numbers 25-40,
raise your hands.
Quickly!
This group...
...move to Room 904 now.
- Not again!
- That's not us.
Don't tell anyone about
the blood on your face, okay?
Mr. Park Gang-du?
Yes?
You need to take a lot of tests...
...so don't eat until
tomorrow morning.
- What? Don't eat anything?
- Don't feed him anything. No food.
Hello?
- Hello?
- Hello?
Can you hear me?
My battery is...
Hello?
It's me, Hyun-seo!
Dad, can you hear me?
Please answer me!
Is this Hyun-seo?
Dad, listen to me!
I can't get out!
You're alive? Where...?
It's like a big sewer.
Really big and deep.
Where?
Hello?
I'm scared!
- Come quick!
- Is it Hyun-seo?
What is it?
Did you see that?
- What?
- Wait a minute.
- Sweet!
- Hey!
Hey, don't go near the water.
Be careful!
Let's go. I'm starving.
It's okay, get back in.
Mister.
Mister!
Try to turn.
Your daughter, Park Hyun-seo...
...a seventh grader
She's on the deceased list.
Yes, she goes to Dangsan School...
...she's deceased...
...but she's not dead.
I mean, she died, but she's still alive.
Now you're talking in circles.
So she's on the list.
Wait, shut up.
- At any rate, there was a call.
- Right.
So shouldn't you be able to...
...trace the call or something?
- Trace the call?
That's not something we do
for just anyone.
Are you even aware
of how complicated that is?
"Just anyone," is that
what you said?
Stop it!
Step back!
Please, officer,
let's talk like reasonable people.
They're just kids, don't...
What are you doing?
Your daughter never called you
in the first place, okay?
Your son had a dream...
...but it was so real that...
You don't believe anything we said?
Now you're obstructing an officer
in the line of duty.
- Step back, Nam-joo.
- Officer, should I explain it again?
- The way it happened was...
- I know.
I know. You yourself saw
your daughter die.
But she called you
in the middle of the night?
Does that make any sense?
That's completely ridiculous.
A servant of the people,
talking back like that?
- Then what's your problem?
- You f***ing...
Stop!
This is...
This is my daughter...
...Park Hyun-seo.
My daughter...
I'm the creature.
I ate her. Okay?
And then...
It happened like this.
This is a sewer.
You don't understand?
He's received
psychological treatment?
He's not a bad man...
...but he's in shock.
We should understand.
Officer!
My daughter is alive in the sewer!
Officer?
Cut it out!
Your putting on a damn show
doesn't help!
My friend's niece's husband's...
...brother-in-law is a cop.
Right, I'm sure he'd
bend over backwards for us.
You're a college graduate,
can't you even persuade a cop?
What's college got to do with it?
I put you through school selling
cup ramen, and you...
- Dad.
- Huh?
How long's it been since
she's eaten? Down in the sewer?
What's there to eat down there?
You over there!
Hey, blondie, stop!
Run!
Out of the way!
Catch them!
Out of the way! Quick!
This way!
Gang-du, hurry up!
Which floor?
Close the door! Quick!
I'm coming down...
...but I'm in the elevator, so...
- Where is he?
B4 A3!
- What did I just say?
- B4 A3!
A3. Where is A3?
A3. There it is!
Stop! Catch that car.
Stop them!
Hurry! Open the door!
Hurry!
Go! Step on it!
- Hurry up!
- Nam-joo!
Where is Nam-joo?
- Did they catch her? Oh, sh*t!
- Where?
- There, there!
- Where?
- Over there.
- That idiot!
How could you leave
your only sister?
- We can pick her up!
- Pick her up, then!
She's always been slow.
- Mister, can you stop here?
- Hurry up!
- What a dimwit! Hurry it up, will you?
- Quick! Quick!
Hey, family!
Everyone stop. Stop the van.
Hey, stop!
Did we make it?
- That does it.
- This won't do.
...7500 bucks.
Including the Han River sewer map.
Plus...
...we brushed off a cop
in the parking lot...
...and two police cars on the road.
Anyway...
...including hazard fees...
...the total is $11,400.
Gang-du on TV!
It's from one of those
subway photo booths?
Hey, we should tape this and
show it to Hyun-seo. Daddy on TV.
Jesus.
We don't accept these.
If you're short on cash,
we accept cards.
We'll just take the card.
The blond one,
who made direct contact with it.
He's the stupidest of all.
That b*tch!
Listen to the mouth on her.
He pounced on me
and slammed me to the floor.
I think he gave me arthritis.
I'll need treatment, I'm sure.
- That's what he's like.
- I know who she is.
Like we can't recognize her
through that voice-disguiser?
