So your hair and makeup,
how do you want it?

Just a touch-up, please.

Something elegant, if you can.

CHEONGDAM JEONG-SU CHURCH

[man] The new minister seems good.

Eun-chae?

[gasps]
You're from the fifth group, right?

Ah, it's good to see you, sister.

It's been a while
since we've seen you at mass.

Yeah, I came back from a trip last night.

[gasps] Seriously? How do you not know?
All of Korea's been talking about it.

I only got back to Korea yesterday.

In Madrid, the Wi-Fi wasn't great.
So I didn't hear much news.

And I'm not that into social media.

I have an account. I just hardly use it.

I'm not a big fan
of sharing my personal life.

[chuckles] It was a huge disaster.
You know Taegang, right?

Seo A-ri was the woman whose livestream
turned that massive law firm upside down.

[gasps]

As someone who used
to be Jin Tae-jeon's classmate,

none of this surprises me.

So, Seo A-ri?

Uh, what happened to that woman then?

[driver] You're going to Hills Park?

Wow!

Your place must be nice.

Uh, I heard that even two bedrooms
easily goes for three billion. [chuckles]

I don't know about the smaller units.

Mine has six rooms.

You've got six rooms? Wow!

Exactly how much
does... does that place cost? [chuckles]

Uh, do you live with your parents then?

I live alone.

What's with all the questions?
Do you think I'm lying now?

I, uh... No, that's not it. [sighs]

Just keep your eyes on the road.

Uh, sure, ma'am.

[driver sighs]

Uh, should I pull into the parking lot?

It's fine. Just let me out there.

[pensive music playing]

[machine beeping]

Excuse me, it won't go through, though.
Do you have another card?

[sighs] Did I really max out
my card on this trip?

I'll pay in cash.

- Here.
- Sure.

Thank you, ma'am.

Seo A-ri was the woman whose livestream

none of this surprises me.

He's known for using his family's power

Let's take some pics and talk outside.
Remember we gotta get our posts up.

Those f*cking b*tches.

Why do it myself when I can
have others get rid of the b*tch?

She would've gone belly-up
with a slight nudge anyways.

[Angela] you really are the brains
of our operation.

That b*tch has been plotting this
behind our backs this entire time!

[A-ri] By the way, who are you, bbb?

[girl] I'm a big fan of yours, A-ri.

Why does it matter who I am?

I'm rooting for you,
and I wish you all the best.

Why, you ask? Once you start digging,
you'll find they have so much to hide.

They're attention wh*res.

All that money they piss away,
where do you think it comes from?

They were born with it all set in place.

SO IT WAS HER FRIEND?

WHERE DID SEO A-RI VANISH TO?
IS SEO A-RI DEAD AFTER ALL?

Seo A-ri...

That f*cking b*tch.

So she really is dead?

[chuckling]

Psycho.

# NOWHERE #BUT_EVERYWHERE
#LIKE_YOU_AND_ME

Good f*cking riddance.

[indistinct chatter]

Yeah, I'm still here waiting,
but the police haven't said anything.

They haven't confirmed if it's her.

[sighs] When are they going to brief us?

The news has to go on soon.

God dammit!

A deepfake?

It's one sh*t after another.

So then you're telling me
that video was entirely fake?

That they played the whole nation?

[sighs] Yeah, it's this kind of tech
that uses AI to swap out faces in videos.

On the dark web,
you can easily find a program to run it.

Dark web?

Wha... Enough.

Seo Du-seong.
I heard he turned himself in.

Did he say anything?
Why on earth would he do this, huh?

Why did I?

Revenge. [breathes shakily]

They need to go through the same pain
that my sister had to go through.

Are you serious right now?

The entire nation is up in arms
because of your actions.

Yeah.

That was our true goal,
and thank God it worked.

Seo A-ri was witness
to answering questions

as people were asking them
during her livestream.

[Du-seong] My sister knew
what would happen.

She knew exactly what the world would say
if the dead

were to return and start livestreaming.

She knew how they would respond.

[Du-seong] Isn't it funny?

All the bullshit they would post,
the praise, the sneering, the mockery!

A-ri saw this all coming.

So, what really happened to A-ri?

Tell me.

Is Seo A-ri actually dead?

- I asked you a question!
- I have no clue.

I have no idea.

A-ri disappeared

after asking both me and Du-seong
to do something for her.

They found the car but no body,
so they declared that my sister was dead.

[Du-seong breathes shakily]

But I really do hope
that she's still with us.

She has to see everything
that's happening.

Because this isn't the end of it.

A-ri had one final wish.

There was something else?

What was it?

Seo A-ri...

Tell them to start the plan.

Immediately.

[Mr. Kim] Yes.

[dramatic music playing]

Hey, babe.
Yeah, straight to the airport right away.

No time. Don't pack anything.

- Only bring money.
- [Min-hye] I can't do that.

I can't leave all this behind.

- f*ck you! Let go!
- [all scream]

- No! Let go! Stop!
- [woman 1] Oh my God!

Hello, everyone. This is Ji-na speaking.

Today I am here
to apologize to all of you.

Oh! Baby, please forgive me!

You wh*re!

You've been selling your body all along?

[woman 1] Here! Over here!

- [woman 2] Do you admit to malpractice?
- [man 1] What's going through your head?

[detective] You are under arrest
for partaking in illicit narcotics.

You have the right to remain silent.
You have the right to request an attorney.

You also have the right
to refuse to say anything unfavorable.

My family has a sh*t ton of lawyers!

- Yeah, sure. Get her out!
- Stop it!

Hey, call my brother! Tae-jeon!

Can you really live without me?

[h*-won] Speak for yourself.
Can you live without my money?

With nothing, though?
Nothing else but that body of yours!

Please forgive me just this once.

I'm talking about the allegations

that I've been selling
knockoff luxury items.

I want to take this opportunity
to tell you how sorry I am.

I would like to apologize

for causing our nation such distress.

Did you really act under Mr. Jin?

He asked me to take care of the patient,
and I knew nothing more.

[camera shutters clicking]

But I did the best I could to save him.

We'll be fine.
There's nothing to worry about.

Min-chan's confession? It won't hold up.

Correct, sir.
We just transported a critical patient.

It's their fault they failed
to take the correct measures.

And Mr. An?

You sent him to Yong-tae?

- Make sure you shut up that as*h*le.
- Yes, sir.

[sighs] sh*t.

[sighs]

[pensive music playing]

[phone chimes]

Hey, it's me, An Jae-hun.

I heard you wanted me.

[loud thud]

Going somewhere?

How did you get in here?

Seriously, Min-hye?

I thought friends share
each other's house codes.

[sighs]

If we aren't, then what are we?

[gasps, exhales]

Yu-rang, your timing's perfect.

Take my bags. We'll keep them with you
until we know it's safe.

Here, take this.

- [Yu-rang] Uh...
- The Birkin.

[Yu-rang] Um...

Are you sure I'll have enough room?

Our lives are ruined just like yours.

Min-chan's being investigated.

- You're why his clinic's closed.
- [Min-hye sighs]

- What's wrong?
- My husband, his family,

even my child, have all been doxed.

[sighs]

Why'd you do it?

If what A-ri's saying is the truth,

you're the one who wrote
that original post.

We're supposed to be friends, Min-hye.

Close enough
to share each other's passcodes.

So tell me. How could you
stab me in the back like this?

You talked about my husband online!

Hey! Are you insane?

That's a Birkin! What the f*ck? Ugh!

It's from Hermès.

Ah, sh*t.

[Min-hye gasps]

I'm not going anywhere, Min-hye.

- I called the cops.
- What?

That self-produced brand of yours?

Everything you did to make sure the space
was filled with designer goods,

I know all about it.

Oh Min-hye,

I was your number one lackey, wasn't I?

[Min-hye] You're wrong.

There's no reason for us to be fighting.
We're best friends. No one's closer.

Shut the f*ck up, you stupid b*tch!

You destroyed my life!

I'm gonna take you down with me!
I f*cking hate you! [screams]

[sobbing]

Also known as
"The Seo A-ri livestream incident,"

this case has shook the world,

sending everyone into a frenzy.

But wait.

What could have done this?

Apparently,
the livestream was not Seo A-ri

but rather operated by a third party.

Introducing the deepfake.

Yeah, a deepfake is a combination
of "deep learning" and "fake."

It uses AI technology
to edit someone's face

onto a different person's face
in photos and videos almost seamlessly.

At this time, it is safe to assume
that Miss Seo A-ri's livestream

which has been quite the talk of the town,
is a textbook example of a deepfake.

TRUTH ON SEO A-RI LIVESTREAM INCIDENT
DEEPFAKE CAN DO STUFF LIKE THIS NOWADAYS?

SCARY, THIS IS POSSIBLE?
WE GOT FOOLED BY DEEPFAKE?

[anchor 1] Now, the question remains

exactly what punishment

can we expect to see
those involved receive?

Especially for the attorney Jin Tae-jeon,
the CEO of Taegang law firm,

as well as the anonymous user
known as "bbbfamous."

Someone who gains more and more attention
as the story unfolds.

This incident has sparked comments
from the public like,

"Trolls like these
deserve severe punishment."

[man 2] Right.
Leaving such hostile comments

is considered by the law
an act of violence

that could destroy someone's life.

We must not forget
that such comments are undeniably a crime.

_BBBFAMOUS IN SEO A-RI'S VIDEOS

Don't you think this is great news?

They're all going down one by one.
[chuckles]

[girl 2] Did you hear Chae-hee hid
by bleaching her hair but was caught?

- She threw a fit.
- [girl 1 chuckles]

God, it's better than
any stand-up out there.

Seon-yeong,
you must be loving this, right?

You were in charge of the Gabin Society.

Those assholes always bitched at you.

LEE EUN-CHAE

I'm going in.

- [girl 2] Hmm.
- [girl 1 scoffs]

She always gets like that.
Is she too cool for us, or what?

I mean,
why do you keep calling her Seon-yeong?

- She said her real name's Eun-chae.
- Mmm.

Maybe she feels kind of bad for them
since her family's also rich, apparently.

You really believe that?
That someone rich works here?

Her parents wanted her
to build work experience.

I mean,
she's always covered in luxury brands.

They're all knockoffs from Hong Kong.

And Eun-chae's her real name?
[scoffs] Oh please.

She just wants to try and pretend

since she's surrounded
by rich people here.

That b*tch. She's a pathological liar.

[breathes shakily]

There's no need to worry.

No way they know who I am.

[woman] Sorry?

Ah, nothing, ma'am.

Let's get you into the bed now.

[woman] Hmm.

[breathes shakily]

So we finally get to meet,
Mr. Jin Tae-jeon.

You were sure hard to get a hold of

during the investigation
for Kim Gwang-h*'s death.

And the investigation

revealed that the case
had nothing whatsoever to do

with me or Taegang, right?

Doctor Kim Min-chan
has already made a confession.

He said you brought him a patient
in a drug-induced coma.

Detective Jang Hyeon-su, was it?

Don't you know the law?

[dramatic music playing]

You can't have a case with just that.

My sister Chae-hee?
She should pay for her crimes, but me?

All I did was bring
a very ill patient to the hospital.

Is that a crime?

Just what can you charge me with, huh?

[door shuts]

[man sighs]

Mr. Hwang Yong-tae.

Uh, owner of Aragon Club, right?

Mr. Prosecutor,

I really don't know
anything about this, though.

I mean, the idea of me peddling drugs
is so ludicrous.

Do you know
how many rooms are in our club?

How am I supposed to check each
and every g*dd*mn room

to see if some tweakers
are doing drugs or God knows what else?

I only knew about it
after the incident already happened, sir.

Okay?

Mr. Hwang, you seem to have misunderstood
why you're here. Let me clarity.

I called you down here
to discuss another charge.

What?

Oh, I mean,
selling drugs is a serious offense,

but those aren't the only crimes
you have committed, right?

Han Jun-kyoung.
Remember you tried to k*ll him?

[dramatic music playing]

[panting]

I'm Mr. Hwang's lawyer.

- Thank God you're...
- [lawyer] Don't say another word.

From this moment on,

you can only question him
when his attorney's present.

[sighs]

[breathing heavily]

[sighs]

Ah, why isn't this as*h*le
picking up the phone, huh?

- [man 1 heaving]
- [man 2] The bathroom. No, don't throw up!

- Just... Jesus Christ! Come on.
- [man 1 groaning]

[man 2] Come on.

What's wrong with you?
Why would you drink and drive, huh?

[man 1 vomits]

[man 2 scoffs]
They're gonna throw you in the slammer.

[man 1] I'm so sorry. [heaves, coughs]

- [man 2] Excuse me, sir.
- [sighs]

What do you think you're doing?

[Tae-jeon sighs]

You know who I am?

- I'm from the law firm Taegang...
- Yeah, I'm aware.

You're all over TV right now.

But the rules apply to you too.

No one is permitted to smoke
in any public spaces, you understand?

Like, seriously.

- [man 1 vomits]
- [man 2] Yeah, there you go.

- You good?
- [man 1] Yeah, yeah.

This is why you shouldn't drink and drive.

Don't smoke in here again.

- [door opens]
- [sighs]

- [phone chimes]
- [line ringing]

[sighs]

[Jun-kyoung] Are you trying
to call An Jae-hun?

You sent him to Yong-tae?

[pensive music playing]

[operator] The number you have dialed
can not be reached at the moment.

You...

Oh, I guess you didn't know I woke up.

We did keep it quiet, after all.

[inhales] It's been a while.

You know, I needed some time to catch you,

Jin Tae-jeon.

But excuse me, sir,
just what the hell are you saying?

Mr. Hwang admits
to all the charges against him.

It's true that under Mr. Jin's orders,
he caused that car accident intentionally.

- Wait, what the f*ck, sir?
- Just shut it!

If you want to live too.

[breathes shakily]

Please, sir, go easy on this man.

Mr. Jin was the one who ordered him to.

[Yong-tae breathes shakily]

[Yong-tae exhales]

[Jun-kyoung] By now,
he'll have admitted to all the charges.

- [chuckles]
- You know why?

Because Mr. An and I met today.

Our legal team has proven
that Tae-jeon and Taegang

are the ones who made the order
for Mr. Hwang to cause that car accident.

In addition, we also uncovered
how you sabotaged Miss Seo

by forcing Miss Oh's hand
against her will.

So what will you do now?

Will you go down with Jin Tae-jeon?

Fight for Taegang, an already lost cause?

Or...

would you like to keep your law license?

What a joke.

[dramatic music playing]

That's not true.

You think I'll fall
for such a stupid trick?

You think Taegang's a joke, don't you?

Then why isn't Mr. An picking up?

Jin Tae-jeon,

this is your new reality.

- [dramatic music continues]
- [scoffs]

A police station.

A filthy, cramped bathroom.

A scumbag criminal.

This new status

fits you very well.

[scoffs]

[chuckles]

That's not true.

[chuckles]

No, no.

[sighs] That can't be true.

Who do you think I am?

Huh? I'm f*cking Jin Tae-jeon!

[lighter clicks]

[chuckling]

- Ms. Yoon requested me?
- Yeah, as soon as you're available.

You know her, right?
Of the Haeum Foundation.

- Yeah.
- She's a top VIP.

Treat her well, okay? Hmm?

Sure.

[pensive music playing]

[knocks on door]

[Seon-yeong] Um, Ms. Yoon?

[exhales]

Uh, it's such an honor
to serve you like this.

I'm therapist Lee Eun-chae.

[chuckles shakily]
I'll begin by rinsing your feet.

What kind of oil should I use?
Would you like to try them first?

I'm just going to pick one out myself.

- [bottle opens]
- [water splashes]

Is the temperature okay for you?

[breathes deeply]

Sorry, but you should answer
when they ask you a question.

If you're going to act this way,
why'd you...

[A-ri] I was curious.

What kind of person are you?

Because if someone you hardly knew
hated you so much

that they went out of their way
to ruin your life,

wouldn't you be a little curious too?

You...

Who are you?

You can't be Miss...

- [gasps]
- That's right. I'm not Yoon Si-hyeon.

I'm Seo A-ri.

[gasps]

What's it like to meet me in person?

[upbeat music playing]

Bbbfamous.

[inhales] Seo A-ri...

What's going on?

What are you doing here?

A-ri's here. She's in there now.

[Jun-kyoung] Okay.

[A-ri] Surprised I'm still alive?

[Seon-yeong gasps]

It's because I had to find you.

Lee Eun-chae's your alias.

Your real name is Lee Seon-yeong.

My online hater,

bbbfamous.

What?

Now that you're no longer
hiding behind your screens

you have nothing to say?

Afraid 'cause you now have to face me?

No.

Look me in the eyes, Seon-yeong.

Look at me and repeat word for word
every hateful comment you posted about me.

[breathes shakily]

Did you have fun tearing people down?

Did you relish in the fact
that we couldn't fight back?

Haters like you
have a lot of power in your fingertips.

Back then, I...

really wanted to end my life.

That's why I had to catch you.

Especially you.

"Bbbfamous."

Who k*lled me?

The one who's afraid
I might still be alive.

[Seon-yeong] Who are you?
Answer me! Who are you?

f*ck. Are you really Seo A-ri?

That's not fair!
Someone like you should've died!

[A-ri] All of this
was just a trap to catch you.

Really?

You think that

I set the world ablaze?

That's only part of the reason
I faked my own death.

[Jeong-sun] That's good to hear.

Since that's what
I've been intending all along.

Every choice in this world
comes with a consequence.

But still, most people go
about their lives oblivious to this.

It's much easier that way.

Living our lives blissfully ignorant
of what we've done.

But, you know, we need to be aware
of the actions we've taken.

We need to know there's no escaping
the consequences of those actions.

We all have a price to pay
for the choices we've made,

no matter what our intentions.

Don't try to avoid it.
You won't be able to anyways.

Of course, the law will deal with you.

But you need to be exposed to the public
for everyone to see.

You'll become nothing more
than meat for the world to tear apart.

[breathes shakily]

How does it feel to be in my shoes now,

Lee Seon-yeong?

f*cking answer me.

Why'd you do it?

What were you hoping
to get out of all this?

- Shut up, you f*cking b*tch!
- [A-ri grunts]

[breathing heavily]

[Si-hyeon] A-ri!

- What... What's wrong?
- Let go!

[gasps]

[dramatic music playing]

[both gasp]

Seo... Seo A-ri?

[Seon-yeong breathing shakily]

[gasps] Oh, oh, oh, oh!

c*ck!

[women screaming]

Oh my God, c*ck!

- k*ll it! k*ll it!
- [screams]

[women continue screaming]

[dramatic sting]

What in the hell did I do wrong?

What did I do?

Wait, what are you doing?

[Seon-yeong laughing]

Who gives you the right
to lecture me, huh?

Those f*ck?

The Gabin Society who always bragged?

They deserve what they got.

They would spend what I would in a month
on a single meal.

I'll never earn that money,
no matter how hard I try.

You people spend it all in one day.

[laughing]

[sighs]

All those clothes,
designer clothes, supercars.

You keep flaunting it,

and it makes us feel even shittier
about our lives.

Is it that frigging hard
to share with others?

Do you have to rub it in our faces too?

So please just shut up.

You people are driving me crazy!

[breathing heavily]

Now you're going to say,

"Oh no!"

[chuckling]

"Cheer up. I have nothing too!"
[chuckling]

Well, that's f*cking funny.

You can go f*ck yourselves.

This whole world can go f*ck itself.

[breathes shakily]

Oh no!

[dramatic music playing]

[Seon-yeong laughing]
I wish you f*cking b*tches would just die.

You f*ck.

k*ll yourself, Seo A-ri!
How is she still alive?

That crazy b*tch, Oh Min-hye.

b*tches like you deserve to f*cking die.
You f*cking wh*res!

You m*therf*cking crazy b*tch!

[laughing]

You f*cking crazy b*tch! Go die!

[glass shatters]

[music halts abruptly]

We appreciate your cooperation.
We'll be in touch very soon.

Thanks for the hard work.

Are you okay now?

[A-ri breathes deeply]

This isn't how I wanted it to go.

[sighs]

All I wanted to do was fix this
and make everything right.

I know, A-ri.

Thankfully, her injuries
aren't as serious as we thought.

Once she's recovered,

she'll pay the price
for all of her crimes.

[door opens]

- [door shuts]
- [panting] A-ri.

[Jun-kyoung continues panting]

Jun-kyoung.

- [tender music playing]
- [Si-hyeon] I told him to come here.

After all, no one else

has longed for your return
as much as he did.

I couldn't tell you before. Sorry.

Jun-kyoung, nobody told me
that you were awake.

How did you...

No need to worry about that.
At least not now.

Don't you ever again,

for whatever reason
that you might have,

disappear.

[A-ri sobbing]

DONGBU POLICE STATION

Lee Seon-yeong, 32.
Lives at Jangmun-ro 35-gil, Yongsan-gu.

Apparently, "Lee Eun-chae"
was the alias she was using.

You say her laptop
was filled with recordings?

Like you wouldn't believe.

It ranged from customer's conversations
she recorded while massaging them,

to screenshots she got
by stealing the password of their phones.

It seems that's how
she got her inside info.

[scoffs] She's a total psychopath.

She was undergoing a lot of therapy
for depression, also.

Jesus Christ, this world is filled
with colorful nut jobs.

Oh, and did you see
the state of her house?

You're supposed to know a person
from how they live, but this was a dump.

- That's enough. Stop it.
- What?

You should be talking sh*t about your boss
'cause I can take it.

Leave that poor girl alone.

[sips, gulps]

[door opens]

- [door shuts]
- [security alarm beeps]

[Mrs. A-ri sighs]

Oh, I'm in my own home.

[inhales] Oh.

[sighs]

[chuckling]

God, it's so nice
to be here in my own home.

[breathes deeply]

It's a relief, though,
that they released you on probation.

A relief?

Yoon Jeong-sun. And you too, Du-seong.

I was ready to give you
a piece of my mind.

Where's your decency?

How could you hide A-ri from me
this whole time?

Do you have any idea
how much that's eaten me up inside?

I'm so sorry, Mom.

I mean, you're quite the blabbermouth. Uh...

What? What did you say?

Uh, uh, sorry, uh... [chuckles]

You'd know eventually.

You know, you are just the worst, huh?

What did you say to me?
I'm a blabbermouth, huh? Say it!

Please, ma'am, calm down.
I know, but he's not that wrong, though.

Just how would it succeed if you knew?

It would've ended before we started.

Ugh! How could you?
You feel the same way too?

Oh, you... [scoffs]

Ugh.

Wait.

Where did A-ri run off to?
Where's that brat now?

YES TO REDEVELOPMENT

The cleaning crew's on their way over now.

- [keypad chimes]
- You'll need to keep this quick.

- Yes, I understand.
- Mmm, here.

[woman scoffs]

[pensive music playing]

[Si-hyeon] So you really are here.

Si-hyeon.

Jun-kyoung said you'd be.

He also said you report everything you do
and everywhere you choose to go.

Yeah. [chuckles]

I just wanted to see it.

I suppose this place
is going to be cleaned up soon.

I bet you're thinking

Lee Seon-yeong was someone
who was able to only exist in this place.

And that bbbfamous was the only thing
with actual meaning in her life.

Yeah.

Maybe that's why.

But now I'm here,
this place just seems sad

rather than a nightmare.

[Si-hyeon chuckles softly]

Have you seen this?

[Si-hyeon sighs]

It's a fan account
that supports you, A-ri.

[uplifting music playing]

We live in an interesting world.

3.9M FOLLOWERS

And this is how many
are patiently waiting for your return.

[uplifting music continues]

[A-ri] I would by lying
if I said I wasn't tempted.

The thought

did make me smile.

But I decided to leave it all behind.

Why, you ask?

Because of all the people that know me
or think they do,

people who spend their time
cheering for me or hating on me,

"Agree, A-ri"?

Or something similar

could easily turn to "Ugly A-ri"
in the blink of an eye.

[engine shuts off]

[chimes]

A-RI, WE'RE STILL WAITING
AND CHEERING FOR YOU!

WE CHEER FOR AND SUPPORT A-RI!
WE'RE ARCHIVING A-RI'S ONLINE ACTIVITIES

[upbeat music playing]

A-RI, YOU'RE STILL SO PRETTY

ISN'T SHE THE SAME AS OTHERS AFTER ALL?
GODLIKE SEO A-RI... IT WAS FUN

[A-ri] I guess some of you might not know.

But the most famous e-celeb Seo A-ri

started out selling cosmetics
door-to-door.

Would you like to know how Seo A-ri,
a commoner, became an influencer?

What about the real truth?

About how she got to the top?

#SEOARI

Okay, fine. I'll tell you.

I've been dying to tell someone anyways.

Now then, come along for the ride.
