The Host Page #5

Synopsis: The film revolves around Park Hee-bong, a man in his late 60s. He runs a small snack bar on the banks of the Han River and lives with his two sons, one daughter, and one granddaughter. The Parks seem to lead a quite ordinary and peaceful life, but maybe they are a bit poorer than the average Seoulite. Hee-bong's elder son Gang-du is an immature and incompetent man in his 40s, whose wife left home long ago. Nam-il is the youngest son, an unemployed grumbler, and daughter Nam-joo is an archery medalist and member of the national team. One day, an unidentified monster suddenly appears from the depths of the Han River and spreads panic and death, and Gang-du's daughter Hyun-seo is carried off by the monster and disappears. All of the family members are in a great agony because they lost someone very dear to them. But when they find out she is still alive, they resolve to save her.

I'm in a real hurry!

How can I get to a main road?

Figure it out yourself.

Mister, I need some soju bottles.

Wow, this is a nice bag.

Here, I'll give you money.

Think money can buy you anything?

Well, I'm bored anyway.

Wonhyo Bridge?

Okay, Wonhyo bridge.

Jesus Christ.

What the hell?

What are you two doing back there?

Who uses those at demonstrations

these days, you blockhead?

I told you,

it's not for a demonstration.

Get out! I'll pull over, so get out!

Just keep driving.

I'm paying quadruple fare.

Quadruple?

Look at his hands work.

He's a master!

You said the north side of Wonhyo?

That won't be easy.

You see everyone

heading in that direction?

- Demonstrators are now gathering...

- It's a total mess today.

...at the Agent Yellow release point.

The police have virtually

given up controlling...

...the Han River restricted area...

...as demonstrators have broken

past all barricades.

Hyun-seo!

Are you okay, Se-joo?

I'm hungry.

And blood keeps coming out.

- It's okay.

- I'm hot...

I'm hot...

Se-joo...

...just stay right here.

Don't come out, whatever happens.

Why?

I'll be right back.

I'll bring...

...doctors...

...911...

...the police...

...the military...

...I'll bring them all.

Take me with you.

Se-joo...

Go in...

Hyun-seo!

Gang-du!

Come on!

Hyun-seo!

It's Daddy!

What are you doing?

Look.

It's here!

Everyone run!

No, don't shoot!

Don't shoot!

Gang-du!

Hey!

Isn't that Gang-du?

What the hell?

Don't shoot!

I said don't shoot!

Gang-du!

Were you with Hyun-seo?

Did you know Hyun-seo?

Who are you?

Were you with Hyun-seo?

Let's eat.

A moment ago, at 11:30 p. M...

...the U.S. Senate

Investigating Committee...

...announced its findings regarding

the Korean virus incident.

Let's go to the announcement.

There's nothing good on.

Should we watch something else?

Let's turn it off.

Concentrate on eating.
